ENGLISH NEWS.
(From tbe-“ Sydney Herald',” Nov. 12.)
By the Maidstone, which vessel arrived yesterday, we have received English papers two days litter than those brought by the great Britain.
The Times of the 12(h of August publishes a most interesting account of the Review of the Fleet. The same paper contains the following Foreign news, which had been received by submarine telegraph. Paris, August 11, G p.m.—A decree, which bears dale the 7lh instant, authorizes the return of M. Raze to France. At the Exchange to-day (here was a rise in all (lie funds. The three per cents, which opened at 80f. 20c., dosed at 801'. 21c. for the end of the month, and the lour-and-a-half per cents, closed at 104 f. 40c. It is said that a telegraphic despatch has been received from Vienna, announcing the acceptance by the Divan of the Vienna proposals. Turkey.— Letters from Besika Bay of the 50lh of July slate that the greatest enthusiasm prevailed among the crews of the Heels of Great Britain and France. Florence, August 2.—Nine persons, have been condemned to confinement for forty months as guilty of being members, of an evangelical propaganda and political society for purposes hostile to the religion ami government of the country. —Guerazzi has been authorized to establish his residence in France, Russia.— Advices from Odessa 9f the nth instant slate that large Quantities of corn are being shipped for France and Italy, Madrid, August G. — We learn from the Balearic Islands that great progress is making in

The ratification of all the railway hills which have been'passed appears in the Gazette of to-day. The Earl of Warwick died oh the 10th of August. The deceased nobleman was in his 7olh year. lie is succeeded by his only sort, Lord Brooke.
The Plymouth Times of the loth August, in reference lo the Russp-Turkish question, has the following remarks :
“ ll is still enveloped In mystery and doubt. Intelligence has been received, il is true, that is generally considered of a pacific and a Reassuring character. The Czar, we aRe told, ‘ has accepted the propositions of the Four Powers, on condition that the Porte shall adhere to them without modification.’ On the receipt of this news many of ourcontempora'ries have given free vent to their exultation, rejoicing that a pacific solution of the difficulty has been obtained but, to make use of a homely proverb, we fear they arc 1 holloaing before they are out of the wood.’ Instead of withdrawal, every actual movement of the Russians shows a continuance of their encroaching and aggrandizing policy. Nothing in the shape of authentic news pretends that they contemplate as yet the evacuation of the Danubian Principalities, and (ill that step is taken —till the last Russian has re-crossed the Prulh—il would be idle to talk of any satisfactory or permanent negotiation.
