QONTINUED WARLIKE ASPECT OF AFFATRS—RE- PORT THAT THE CZAR DESIRES TO BACK OUT—AG- TIVE PREPARATIONS OF THE TURKS AND RUSSIANS FOR THE CONTEST—CONFLICT BETWEEN THE RUS- SIANB AND CIRCASSIANS, ETC. The position of affairs is unchanged, ‘The dates from the seatof war in Turkey are not 10 Jate as the 25th ult.—the day fixed by the Sultan for the Sommencement of active hostilities—but the news, never- theless, appears to be decisive as to the fact that a regular Sollision between the Russians and Turks had actually taken place on the Danube; and although the latest re- ports speak of s strong desire on the part of Count Nes- Relrode to still further negotiate upon the subjects in Aispute, yet all the indications are desidedly in favor of war. It is now reported that the Qzar will rather back out of the Principslities than fight there. This is surmised to be the purport of the reply sent by Russia to the re. ‘quest by France and England to evacuate the Principali- Hes. Certain transactions in the London markets would indi- gate that parties were in possession gf exclusive and favorable information, but the public at large are kept altogether in the dark respecting the progress of affairs. The Turkish Cabinet is said to have declared that the | movement of the combined fleets was ‘not intelligible” — if the allies are apprehensive of the safety of the Sultan, the Turkish government undertake to guarantee his safety, and have no use for the flects at Constantinople except as the forces of active allies. The presence of the fleets in avy other quality, would, for the Turks, be an fvowal of weaknoss that would wrong Turkey in the eyes of Europe. Monktar Bey, Minister of Finance, has resigned, and Monssa Safetti Pasha is his suocesser. No reliable ac- counts of hostilities have reached us, althcugh "nume- yous statements were in circulation. There was much sunning to and fro of couriers with despatches, but little is suffered to transpire. During the week it was positively asserted, and as posi- tively denied, that the four Powers have the draft of a new proposition ready to submit to the Suitan and Czar, ‘The King of Belgium wns said to be exerting his influ- ence with the four Powers to prepare such a note. Several papers publish the following spurious despatch via Vienna, Oct. 22:— “The army of Omar Pasha, which could be kept back no longer, has passed the Danube and beaten the Russians at Oltenitza. The Russian vessels on the Danube have fallen into the hands of the Turks.” ‘The following is more reliable, telegraphed on the 26th, via Brussela:— “A skirmish on the Danube is reported from Vienna, Tarkey prohibits the export of corn. 19th—No fleet at Constantinople, It was not believed that any pitched battle had been fought.” The Turkish government is acting with much military aogacity. It has officially recognized Schamyl and other Circassian chiefs, giving them military rank as Tarkish officers, and sending them atms and supplies. Genora Guyon, the Hungarian, is sent as Lieutenant.General, to Asia. ‘The Russians are establishing a strong reserve at Ga- latz, and have 50,000 men at Bucharest. All the com- manders have joined their respective corps. ‘A pontoon corps had left Bucharest for the Danube, ‘The weather continued mild and favorable for military operations. 25,000 Russians had landed at Redout Kale, with the supposed intention of attscking Baltoum, ‘The Russian army was in a bad state (rom sickness, and scarcity. Nevertheless, the benediction of banners, which usually precedes active service, took place on the 10th, at Bucharest. Manthimour, s man of energy, opposed to Russia, but favorable te a revivification of the Greek Church, is elest- 24 Patriarch of Constantinople, and has been invited to attend a meeting of the Cabinet. The London Daily News publishes a copy of an order dated October 8, from the Grand Vizier to tho inhabitsnts of Constantinople, calling on them to preserve order, to pray for the success of the Turkish arms, and to protect ‘the Christians from insult or annoyance. Tt was reported that M. de la Cour, the French Ambas- eador at Constantinople, was to be superseded. Recent Russian accounts reported a Russian victory over the Circassians. The true statement says tho Circassians defeated the Russians, captured several guns, and re- treated into the mountains. Persia has disbanded her army on the Turkish frontier. THE LATEST NEWS. REPORTED SKINMISH ON THE DANUBE—SEVERAL RUS SIAN OFFICERS AND SAILORS KILLED, ETC. A telegraphic despatch published in the Paris Monitevr, dated Bucharest, 26th October, states that two Russian steamers with eight gunboats forced the passage of the Danube on the 23d, and encountered a brisk fire from the Turkish fort of Isaktchi, between Reni and Ismail. Tho Russians had one colonel, three officers, and twelve sail- ora killed, and forty wounded, but pretend that they ret the fort on fire by a shell.

The better qualities were saleable at foll prices, but tha lower grades have been neglected, and were easier to pur- chase, in some instances to the extent of one-eighth, to effect sales. Consumers took only for present use, and speculators and exporters had bought cautiously, and only when inducements tempted. The strikes at Wigan and Preston continued, and others threatened; but on the whole they were balanced by the unfavorable reports of the crops. The week’s sales footed up 36,250 bales, including 5,490 on speculation and 3,540 for export. The siock on hand was 729,44 pales, including 421,290 American.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE O¥ THE NEW YORK HERALD, THE CALIFORNIA MAIL SERVICE—THE LAW AND AS- PINWALL STEAMERS—TUE NICARAGUA AND RAM- SEY ROUTES TO BE RECOMMENDED—GEORGE LAW VS. THE ADMINISTRATION—GENERAL REDUCTION OF OCEAN POSTAGE—CONSIDERATION OF REPORTS FROM THE DEPAKTMENTS—TRE SPEAKERSAT? AND THE CLERKSHIP—0O REDFIELD AND PRIN b JOHN IN WASHINGTON Wassrxcros, Nov. 11—8 P. M. The advertisement issued by the Postmaster General, in accordance with the resolution of the Iust Cuugsesa, inviting tenders for carrying the ocean mails on all the routes, and looking to the purchase of the old ships owned by the diflerent mail steam lines, which were at the time of their construction “received”? by the Navy Department, is not, I understand, likely to bring forth any immediate results, Scarcely any bids have yet been received, and nono of such a character as to induce the Postmaster-General to do more than merely report the fact to Congross. The truth is, that, as a mere saving, it would scarcely pay to take Law’s or Aspinwall’s old steamers, even if othor parties offered to make a con- siderable reduction in the cost of transporting the mail for the balance of the time for which those contracts have yet to run. ‘The Postmaster General will, however, recommend for the consideration of Congress the Nicaragua route, aad also the Rameay route, by the way of Vera Cruz and Aca- pulco. By both these routes a speedier communication can be had with California than by the way of Panama. George Law has been at daggers points with this ad- winistration, as with the last, because of the strict con- strewtion which the Secretary of the Navy puts upon the law of March 8, 1817. Some say this petite war is merely with a view of inducing the government to recommend the purchase of his ships, soas to get rid of him. The Heratp has the reputation of being George Law’s organ. How is it? I have reason to believe the Postmaster General will recommend a reduction in the rates of ocean postage generally. Thearrangements which he has made with the German States, by which the rates of postage by the way of Bremen bave been materially reduced, are geno- rally being extended over all Northern Europe. T understand that both the President and Secretaries will endeavor to condense theie State papers as much as posrible, trusting more than has been customary of late years, to the good senso of Cogress, and that the country will be able to understand eommon propositions without elabcrating them over quires of foolsedp. ‘The message will be zent to the postmasters of the most important cities in advance, to be given tothe newspapers the moment it is presented to Congress. ‘There are so many candidates for Speaker that it is im- possible as yet to guess at the chances of any, Messrs. Olds and Disney, of Ohio, have been here, taking a look atthe ground. Mr Orr, of South Carolina, has not been hove for some weeks; but is daily expected. His great experionce, geographical position, the liberal ity of his course last Congress towards Western measures, as well as the fact that he always was ani is a Union man, will give him a good start. I do not be- lieve it is intended to run Mr. Breckenridge, of Kentucky; his best frieuds would regret hia being placed ina posi tion where his eloquence would be lost. Lynn Boyd, it is said, intends to try his luck; but the last Congress had too many evidences of his stupidity and unfairness to in- duce the repetition of such an infliction on the country. Of the candidates for Clerk, Mr. Forney will be support- ed by the President. Mr. Snow, an ex-member trom New York, will receive Mr. Marcy’s support, such as it is. Very likely other ex members will be in the field, for, in dependent of half the last Congress coming here to lobby, the departments all enmmer have beon pestered with the begging of ex-members for offices, even down to clerkships for themaelves. The news received this evening, from New York, of the victory of the national over the free soil democrats, has caused the greatest consternation to Messrs. Marcy, Guth- rie, Cushing and Davis. The President feels deeply the deception practised on him by Marcy, and there can be little doubt, will get rid«f his Premier ss soon as possible after the meeting of Congress, By the way, it is stated here on the authority of respectable gentlemen, that Mr. Nicholsoa, the present editor of the Union, made himself corspiouous last spring or summer, by his denunciations of General Pierce, Perhaps he will explain what canses hia ebange of opinion. It is due to tho President that the @xplanation should be made. John Van Buren, Heman J, Redfield, and Mr, Brod- head, have just arrived in the cars, They doubtless sup- pose the weakness of their vote requires explanation; but they will find the President cannot have the weol again pulled over bis eyes, Joha intends to try And make the Ata meeting of the recently elected members of Con- gross here, it was unanimously agreed to support tho Hon.
