WAR BEGUN.

Hailfax, Nov IL.
The Royal Mail Steamship America, Capt,
Long, from Liverpool Saturday, Oct. Goth,
arrived at this port between . and 10 o'clock
this morning. Dates from the seat OF war and
Turkey are not so late as the 25th.-The day is
not fixed by the Sultan for the commencement
Of active hosilities, but the news, nevertheless
appears to be decisive for the fact that COLI
sion between the Russians and Turks had ac-
tually taken place on the Danube, and although
the latest reports speak Of strong desire on
the part Of Count Nezzelrode for still further
negotiations on the subject in dispute.
All the indications are decidedly in favor of
war. The unfavorabe character Of the eastern
news has had but little effect on The liverpool
markets, and prices are not essentially charged
since the sailing OF the Franklin. Sales of the
week foot up $4,000 bales. The market for
breadstutfs continues active al increasing prices.
