FRENCH PAPERS.

(From tbe Gazette de France, Nov. 6.)
VIENNA, OCT. 27.—The Duke de Laval Mont-
morency had the honour - yesterday to present his'
credentials to the Emperor.
Letters from Odessa, of the 15th, say that the
Emperor was expected there, on his way to St.
Petersburgh. Part of the Guards are said to have
received orders to go to the Dannbe and the parts

have already succeeded in attacking the rear guard
of the Turks, froth whom they have taken some ar-

tillery and many prisoners. There have been
numerous promotions and distributions of. military
orders in the Russian army. It is said also that
orders hare lately been conferred on several foreign
Ministers.

(From the Journal des Debats of Wednesday.)
PARIS, Nov. 4.—The more the war between
Russia and the Ottoman Porte is prolonged, the
more it assumes a character of bitterness. Neither
the Emperor nor the Sultan can recede.
No doubt Austria and England are essentially
anti-IVluscovite. Austria does not move, as she fears
for her position with respect to Italy. If England is
the ally of Austria, Italy will probably remain tran-
quil; the English fleets need but to shew themselves
on the coast, to deprive the boldest of any desire of
an open defection.
It is definitively to England that the part is re-
served of modifying or embroiling the Ottoman
question. If her triumphant fleets penetrate into
the Black Sea with an intention hostile to the
Russians, Russia will not only hare to contend on
the present theatre of the war, but on the coasts of
its Asiatic possessions.
On the frontiers of Caucasus the question be-
tween the Turks and the Russians becomes par-
ticularly vital. All the projects of the Russians
have tended for a long time, materially to civilize
those countries of Caucasu.. Since the (ray when
Georgia rendered homage to her, Russia has ceased
to be confined in the deserts of the East.

LONDON.
SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 8, 1828.

The French Papers of Wednesday have been
received. According to letters from Odessa, part
of the Imperial Guards are said to hays received
orders to go to the Danube and other parts to
reinforce the army before Silistria, which place is
closely invested, and must soon fall.

The fall of Varna seems to have infused fresh
vigour into the Russian soldiers; and though
they must feel the difficulties of their situation
increased by the change of season, yet their
efforts, being more concentrated, will give them
corresponding advantages over the distracted and
dispirited Turks. The possession of Silistria
will ensure the safety of the Russian army in
their winter quarters(

The Dublin Brunswick Meeting—a report of
whose proceedings will be found is another
column—took place on Tuesday last. It was
charaeterized by more temper than usual, was
comparatively moderate in tone, devoid of energy,
vague in declamation, spiritless and indefinite in
argument. Of this we are far from complaining,
for if the Irish Brunswickers—and this Meeting,
be it observed, expresses the collective opinions of
them all—laying aside the grinning malignity of
the hyena, are emulous rather of the soporific
temperament of the dormouse, we think that
both themselves and their readers will be gainers
by the change ; inasmuch as it is more consonant
to one's notions of comfort, to be set asleep than
to be shocked, to be lulled than to be goaded
into indifference. That this subdued demeanor,
however, has proceeded merely from a conviction
on the part of the Meeting, of the impolicy—
the absurdity—the madness of an opposite
course, and not from any natural disposi-
tion to mildness ; we have no more doubt than
that the Morning Journal acquired what little
reputation it once possessed, by an unprin-
cipled fraud upon the Times. Still less do we
doubt that the Brunswickers, whether of Eng-
land or Ireland, have become at last acquainted
with the secret of their own political insignifi-
cance ; and that having commenced their career
as bullies, and failed as such, they are now glad
to continue it as cravens, and to apFeal by a
show of submissiveness, to that public opinion
which they once hoped to carry by storm. " The
flaming patriots," says Junius, " who so lately
scorched us in the East, now set calmly in the
West, and are hardly felt as they descend."
We have spoken of the insignificance of the
Brunswick Clubs. Can there be a greater proof
of this, than the fact that at Leeds, and even in
the South of England, where liberality has always
been tardy in its progress, requisition after requi-
sition has appeared, calling on the people to contri-
bute their time, influence, and intellect to the for-
mation of Brunswick Clubs ; yet, that notwith-
standing such appeals, scarcely an individual of
eminence has come forward ? At Leeds, in
particular, we are assured, that it was with the
utmost—the very utmost—difficulty, a sufficient
number of county politicians could be procured
to get up a meeting, which is to be held in that
town the earlier part of next week. In Devon-
shire the same slow dubious spirit is every
where apparent. The good folks there can-
not
be brought to comprehend the
.nature
and utility
of Brunswick Clubs. They cannot
see why a faction (even though a Protestant
one) should presume to dictate to the Go-
vernment. They can understand the character of
the Roman Catholic Claims,, and find ex-
cuses for a nation which calls loudly for its

natural righti ; but why a Club, professing
Brunswick principles, should impudently strive
to fetter the privilege of a Brunswick Sovereign,
is beyond their comprehension to discover, and
we must confess that we ourselves are in the
same predicament.

The plain fact is, that the whole anti-Catholic
Party—whether patrician' or plebeian—are fast
finding their natural level. The tide of their
prosperity is swiftly ebbing from them. Leader
after leader deserts in turn from their camp ;
first, Mr. BROWNLOW ; secondly, Mr. DAW•
SON ; and thirdly, as we have reason to believe,
Mr. PEEL. This last gentleman has, within
these few months, persuaded his Lancashire
Protestant friends to " refrain from any public
expression of their sentiments on the Catholic
Question." The time, he feels, is gone by,
when ferocious declamations on such a topic
were available ; wisely, therefore, he falls in
with the changed character of the times ; and
this last obstacle removed, what shall prevent the
Claims of the Papists from coming to a speedy
and successful issue ?

The Allgemeine Zeitung, of the Ist inst.,
contains some information respecting operations

between the Russians and Turks, but of so
vague and indistinct a nature as to be worthy of

ttle notice :

VIENNA, OCT. 27.

The Russian Bulletins relative to the fall of Varna prove
that the preceding accounts from Belgrade and Widdin of
an unsuccessful attack made by the Russians on the 7th,
though exaggerated, were not wholly unfounded. But
then it is also certain that the only disadvantage that ac-
crued to the Russians from it was, that they were obliged
to leave Varna again the same night, and therefore that
the second part of the Turkish bulletins that were pub-
lished at Belgrade and Widdin was a mere fiction. How-
ever, without being in possession of the official Turkish
Bulletins, which may, in all probability, be shortly ex-
pected from Constantinople, we can already conjecture,
as private letters affirm, that the Albanian, Jusanf Pacha,
the second in command at Varna, either did not do his
duty, or, at the least, acted in concert with the besiegers.
Even the Russian bulletins seem to intimate as much.
FLORENCE, OCT. 16.
_ _

It is understood that negeciations are culling on at
Rome for a concordat with the kingdom of Portugal,
which will probably be framed on the principles of that
already made with Bavaria, and which the Holy See
appears to have much at heart. It is also said that a con-
cordat with another great Northern State has been pro-
posed, the basis of which is shortly expected in Rome. The
affair of the French Bishops will furnish many occasions for
disputes, and increase the influence of the Roman Court at.
France, because the French Government and the Ultra-
montane party in France, rival each other in striving to
gain the favour of the Papal See, for the accomplishment
of their respective objects.

AUOSIBURCH, OCT. 31.
His Royal Highness Prince Leopol4 of Smce-Coliuig a,-
rived at Munich on the 29th, on his way to Italy.
Several German Journals report, under the head of
Hanover, Oct. 20, that the long-announced military oc-
cupation of some districts in Brunswick, in case the Duke
would not be inducod to make any concession to the King,
his late guardian, has now taken place, Hanoverian troops
having entered the district of Thedenhausen on the 19th of
Octeber.

A vessel has arrived from Oporto in five
days, but the letters are not yet up. The pre-
sent situation of affairs in that quarter makes
news :be looked for with great and painful
interest.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, Twizra easaL

The principal feature in the Consol market this
morning has been the continued purchase of money
stock by a Broker who has latterly been a principal
buyer, and who took off 50,000/. at 86# for Tuesday;
at the commencement of business Consols opened at
86j for time and money, and the effect of the
Above bargain has been to cause them to be quoted
at 86 for both periods ; the market appears firm.
India Bonds, 86 8; Exchequer Bills 75 6 pm.
The Foreign Funds remain in rather a stagnant
state; with but little business doing ; Portuguese,
551 I; Brazilian, 64 i; Russian, 931 i; with re-
spect to the first named Bonds every thing portends
a struggle between the Constitutional party and
the adherents of Don Miguel, in fact, the accounts
received this morning confirm the intelligence that
Portugal is already convulsed, from one end to
the other by the contending parties, and the period
seems fast approaching when this precious scion of
royalty will find his security on the Throne more
than equivocal.
In Shares there is nothing new to state.

Some rumours of disturbances ill Ireland were in
existence last evening, and we suppose it originated
by two companies of artillery having been suddenly
ordered to march for Liverpool on their way to their
destination, Dublin.
