TUESDAY MORNING, NOV. 18, 1851.

FRANCE AND HER POLITICAL GLADIATORS.
THE complicated web of French politics has become
more and more tangled since we last addressed
our readers, and it is impossible to guess at any
pacific and legitimate mode of making it right.
All parties in power, and seeking for power, in that
comical Republic, are engaged playing at cross
purposes, reckless how the commonwealth suffers,
and what calamities to all Europe may result from
their insane ambition and inordinate folly. The
President first threw down his Message, and defied
the Assembly to gainsay it. The Assembly accepted
the challenge, and cast aside the Message. M.
Berryer then entered the lists, and invited all corners
to engage in a committee on the state of the nation—
an ominous proposition, fraught with danger—
which was postponed for the moment, but is still
impending. Next followed M. Baze, with his de-
fiance, scouting the prerogative of the Prince
President, and claiming for the Assembly the com-
mand of the army, Then came in natural course
the retort of the President, who, in addressing the
officers of the regiments newly arrived at Paris,
laid significantly marked claim upon their devoted-
ness to him, and finished his speech with the
remarkable words, "If ever the day of danger
should arise, I will not do as the Governments
which have preceded me have done. I will no
say to you, 'March, and I will follow you,' but I
will say to you, I march ; follow me ! "
The Assembly, upon this unmistakeable speech,
which, curiously enough, was delivered on the
anniversary of the 18th Brumaire, and which had
in it the spirit of the Great Emperor, began to show
the white feather; they modified M. Baze's pro-
position, and gave up the idea of demanding the
command of the army. Then came the Ministerial
Bill, founded on the President's Message, for the
repeal of the electoral law of May ; upon
which a hot discussion arose, ending in the rejec-
tion of the bill by 353 against 347—a measuring
cast majority of only 6 !
Thus matters stand. Such an evenly balanced
division no doubt renders the situation of affairs
more perplexing than before. There is no power
to dissolve the Assembly, and to refer the question
at issue to the electoral body ; nor can a similar
measure be propounded again until an interval of li
three months has elapsed. But it is unquestion-
able that the victory leans towards the President
He has measured his strength singly against the
coalesced opposition, and he has achieved what
may fairly be regarded as a drawn battle. What
the next move will be on either side, it is useless
to consider, for no one here can know it. Sanguine
people in Paris think that a series of compromises
will immediately ensue ; that the electoral law will
be materially modified, and the constitution revised
so as to allow Louis Napoleon to be eligible for re-
election in May next year. There are indications
certainly of an amicable termination of these
political hostilities, and we can only hope, for the
sake of France and of the world, that order may
be restored, and that some solid and permanent
government may be established in the capital of
our fiery and impulsive neighbours.

DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN TRADE-
OUR EXPORTS IN DANGER.

HERETOFORE, since Manchester statesmen have
been in the ascendant, whenever cries of dis-
tress were heard from the agricultural interests
of this country, and whenever other classes of
native producers complained of their particu-
lar industry being depressed, the advocates of
the new commercial policy invariably referred
to the official returns published by the Board
of Trade, and, pointing to the formidable array
of figures which shewed somehow an increased
amount in the declared value of our exports, trium-
phantly asserted that these increased exports were
full compensation to the nation at large for all the
losses the farmers and other particular home pro-
ducers had sustained, and that the exports were in
truth the only sure measure of the general prospe-
rity. So long as the official returns exhibited a
monthly advance in the quantity, or, at all events,
in the declared value of the exports, this argument,
and this dogmatic assertion, served passing well.
Now, however, when the Board of Trade returns
sbew a retrograding, and not an advancing export
trade, the free-import advocates are driven to other
arguments, to other fallacies, and to other pretences.
According to the Downing-street return just issued,
our exported produce and manufactures for the
month ending the 10th of October,—and which, be
it observed, is a most important official month, ex-
tending from the sth of September to the loth of
October—appear to have fallen off not less than
£87,840, as compared with the corresponding month
of last year. Various causes are of course invented
to suit the exigency of the moment, and to ac-
count for this untoward event, and some of these
are remarkable for their absurdity, and curious for
their ingenuity. "An indifferent wine crop in
France" is alleged as one reason why our manufac-
tures are not required on the Continent, and a
diminution in the grain and potato crop in some of
the central states of Europe is assigned as the chief
cause why our calicoes and camlets are in less
demand than they were a year ago. It is a
far-fetched idea, only discovered now for the first
time, that, in order to sell our woollensandcottons,
it is necessary for us to ensure bountiful harvests
over the continent of Europe, large grain crops,
and abundant vintages. We thought the golden
politico-economic rule was—make free and increase
your imports, and your exports will take care of
themselves, and increase indefinitely. But this
rule, like every other propounded by the political
economists,,so wise in their own conceit, is found
Upon experience to be no rule at all. We have sa-
crificed that which was under our own control,
that which was certain and steadily progressive,
our home trade; we have lessened the capacity of
our own countrymen to consume as well as pro-
duce; we have preferred a precarious, ill-remune-
rating, and gambling traffic with foreigners, to a
steady, well-paying, respectable traffic with our-
selves ; and the result is shewn in the return just
issued from the Board of Trade, exhiliiting a dimi-
nution in one month's exports of nearly ninety
thousand pounds sterling of declared value. As
to the boasted increase in our exports which has
been oral"

y year, from 1848 to 1851, it
was all a delusion; it was not real, but nominal,
the result of extraordinary advances in the price of
mfactures, 40 per cent. and more, and
s in the price of woollens to the extent

of ad vanc
of

20 per cent., consequent upon the increased
price of the raw material supplied by foreign coun-
tries, and paid for in hard cash. The Globe, in a
sort of official article, while compelled to confess its
alarm at the downward turn our exports have

taken, is at its wits' end to
cause for what belies all the p
all the dogmas of the party

at a probable

the rye crop, an(

partia

failed over an extent of country wide enough to
justify apprehension of a painful scarcity. Having
startled its readers with this announcement, it
works itself into a fright at the picture it draws
in its imagination of the effect of famine, or want
of sufficient food, upon the exciteable populations
of the Continent, and then proceeds to canvass its
effect on British manufactures. Our manufacturers,
it says, seeing food rising in price among a large
section of their customers, gloomily look forward
to a reduction of the customary orders from that

quartet, for such clothing, furniture, &c., as has
hitherto been obtained from this country. And
the trade circulars of the last week or two tell
how their apprehension has been realised. Orders
for the Continent have been fewer in number, and
less liberal than before ; and it is apparent that the
deficient yield of potatoes and of grain in the south,
east, and north of Europe, and an indifferent wine
crop in France, is at the bottom of the reduced
demand. We accept the fact of the reduced orders
for our manufactures, and thank the ministerial
organ for so frankly acknowledging it; but we
must demur to the reasons assigned for the reduc-
tion, and altogether dissent from the argument
upon which the conclusion arrived at is Lased.
When so able and so thorough a ministerial sup-
porter as the Globe is forced to ascribe our failing
export trade to an indifferent wine crop in France,
we must conclude that it is dreadfully hard pressed
for an excuse. At all events, it is very certain that
even her Majesty's ministers are beginning to see
that all is not milk and honey under the Cobden

and Bright regime, and that notwithstanding free
trade has had full swing, longer than was de-
clared necessary for a fair trial, " there is something
rotten in the state of" England.

Up to the tine of our going to press, the royal mail
steam-ship Niagara, Stone, commander, which left New
York on the sth instant, and was due at this port ou Sun-
day last, had not arrived. Her detention may be attri-
buted to the prevalence of strong easterly winds. The
Hermann, which sailed from New York four days before
the Niagara, has not yet reached Southampton. Should
the Niagara arrive in time, we shall publish a summary of
her news in a second ed;tion.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.
BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.

LONDON, MONDAY

KOSSUTII.—The Globe has a short leading article upon
the repeated statement in the Austrian official journal :
" The Austrian Gazette says, that a note of excuse, or, of
some kind, had been addressed by Lord Palmerston to
the Austrian government on the subject of Kossuth's re-
ception in England." The Globe concludes thus :—" We
now affirm that no note of any kind, and no communica-
tion of any kind, has been made to the Austrian govern-
ment by the British government on the subject of the
manner in which Kossuth should be, or has been, received
in this country, either by the government, by private in-
dividuals, or by the public. To have made any demands
or any representations on such a subject would have been
a great piece of arrogance on the part of the Austrian go-
vernment, and if any such had been made, they would, of
course, have received a suitable answer."
BAIL COURT.—DR. Actium V. DR. NEwmaw.—The
Attorney-General applied to have the name of Dr. New-
man substituted for those of the publishers of the libel.
D. Newman was the author of the pamphlet. The ap-
plication was uranted.
PARIS, SUNDAY-.—lt is reported that the President is
about to re-organise his cabinet, which has been much
shaken by the incapacity of the Minister of Justice, and
toe refusal of M. Blondel to take the Finances ;
bat it is probable he will do nothing until the debate
on the proposition of the questor. The Times corres-

To-day, the drawing of the lottery of the Golden Ingots,
number 2,558,115 won the great prize of 400,000 francs.
The winner's name is not yet known. The second prize,
of 200,000 francs, was gained by a journeyman hairdresser.
PARIS BOURSE.—Fives done at the Casino at 91 35.

ITALY.—A letter from Milan, of the 11th, announces
that the military commander had forbidden the Protestants
of that city to meet for the celebration of divine service at
the house of Mr. Mylins. a merchant and citizen, enjoying
universal esteem. Several arrests have been made at
Padua.

HANOVER.—The report of the King's death is prema-
ture. On the 13th, he passed a tolerably quiet night :

Prince of Solms had been summoned to lanover,

VIENNA, 12TH.—Eight sea captains had passed through
that city to Constantinople, to take the command of so
many steamers belonging to a London company, and in-
tended to keep up a regular Service between various ports
and the Bosphorus.—Measures have been taken to remove
from the Vienna Exchange individuals notoriously ad-
dicted to stock jobbing.—Exchange on London, 12 36 :
equal to a premium on silver of 24 per cent.

MR. RYALL'S ANNUAL CONCERT AT BIRKENHEAD.—
This talented singer and teacher gives a concert at the
Craven Rooms, Birkenhead, on Friday evening next, on
which occasion he will introduce to the public, for the
first time, Miss A. Jones, a pupil of his own, and, as we
learn, a most promising singer. Mrs. Sunderland, and
other first-rate professors are comprised in the programme.
Mr. W. B. Wray, organist of the Blind Asylum. will tire-

lide at the

noforte, and introduce some of Ilia

our renders to the announcement, made in another co•
Lunen, that the Rev. J. B. Owen, M. A., of Bilston, is to
deliver a lecture in the Concert-hall, on Monday evening
next, for the Church of England Institution, on the sub-

ject of popular insurance. This great subject, bearing so
directly on the interests of the people, will be fully dis-
cussed, and valuable hints given or. the investment of
money, supported by the conclusive evidence of carefully
prepared statistics. From Mr. Owen's well-deserved ce-
lebrity as a popular lecturer, and from the immense
crowds which attend his lectures in Exeter-hall and else-
where, we recommend an early application for tickets to
all admirers of anecdote, argument, and eloquence.

inquiry at Preston, were resumed yesterday morning,
before William Ramshay, Esq., judge of the court.
His Honour took his seat upon the bench precisely at
half-past nine o'clock, when the business of the court
was proceeded with.
[lt was expected by many persons that the judge would
have made some observations upon the late investigation
at Preston, but his Honor did not make any allusion to
the subject.)
The cases generally were of the ordinary kind, and
devoid of interest, with the exception of the following,
which occupied the attention of the court for about three
hours, and repeatedly called forth roars of laughter, in
which the learned jut
