Articles agreed on in London in the beginning of 1814, when the success of the Allied armies justified the hope of the permanent inde ! pendence of the Netherlands : "ART. I. This union is to be intimate and complete, so that the two countries form only one and the same state, governed by the con. atitution already established in Holland, and which shall be modified by common consent, according to new circumstances. "2. There will be no innovation in the articles of this constitution, which guarantee to all religions equal favour and protection, and the admission of any citizen, whatever be his religious creed, to ,public offices and employments. "3. The Belgian provinces shall be properly represented at the assembly of the States-General, the ordinary sittings of which shall be held, in time of peace alternately in a Dutch and in a Belgian city. "4. All the inhabitants of the Netherlands being thus constitutionally assimilated, the different provinces will equally enjoy all the commer cial and other advantages, consistent with their respective situ atinn s,with out any shackle or restraint imposed upon one for the benefit of the other. " 5. Immediately afer the union, the provinces and towns of Bel gium shall be admitted to the commerce and navigation of the colonies upon the same footing aishe Dutch provinces. " 6. The charges are to be in common as well as the benefits ; the debts contracted up to the period of the union, by the Dutch provinces on the one hand, and by the Belgian provinces on the other, shall be at the charge of the Treasury of the Netherlands. " 7. Conformably to the same principles, the expenses required for the establishment and repair of the fortifications on the frontier of the new state, shall be supported by the general treasury, as resulting from an object which interests the safety and independence of all the provinces of the whole nation. "S. The expenses of establishing and keeping up the dikes will re main at the costs of the districts more immediately interested in this part of the public service, saving the obligation of the State, generally to furnish aid, in case of extraordinary disasters, in every respect, as is now the practice in Holland." These conditions have not, say the Belgians, been. carried faithfully into execution ; it will now be incumbent on their representatives to point out in the approaching Sitting of the States, in what the Execu tive Government has failed to do them justice. TO lIIS GRACE THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. Mr Loan DIJIM—Not having the honour of personal acquaintance with you, and having no motive to seek that honour, the only adequate mode in which I can address you is through the public papers. Be sides, the subject on which I write is a public one, and it is important that others besides you should be acquainted with it. It is this:—Every mail of common sense feels that nothing can be more preposterous than the hours which are given to public business by the British House of Commons. It is actually monstrous, to imagine that business could really be done at such hours. The House sat last Session almost constantly 'until near four o'clock in the mbrning.—No thing could be more destructive to the health of those who desire to watch over all the interests of the people. Accordingly some of the most honest men that House contained have declined a re-election, in consequence of inability to endure this per version of time and season. I may mention Mr. Marshall, of York. shire, and Mr. 3lonek, of Reading, as two inst a nces of the fat a l e ff ec ts of the existing system. Your Grate having commenced, it is said, though rather tardily, your political education, may, in the course of your reading, have met with a book called " The Mirror of Magistrates ;" if so, you will fi nd it there laid down as a m a xim f or th e un p a id wisdom f the nation— ", that bad houses keep late hours." I will not say that the late House of Commons was a " bad house ;" but it certainly did keep " bad hours." Besides the destruction of health, by the bad practice of devoting the night to that business which should be done by day, there is this more important objection to the present practice.—namely, that it is calculated to make the House, as much as possible, the mere registry of the will of the Minister for the time being. It is im. possible to discuss with calm deliberation, the measures that are sub mitted to the House at a late period of the night. It is also im possible to have any adequate abstract of the proceedings appear before the public. The present system has all these vices :—First, it tends to diminish the number of men of experience who would belong to the Legislature : secondly, it prevents discussion and deli. beration on matters the most interesting in their details to the people at large : and, thirdly, it prevents the public front becoming ac quainted with the real state of the public business. It is true that the gnat party questions are debated and reported; but the matters of detail, the business which relates to internal regula tion, affecting the public much more than the " great questions," are slurred over with the most shameful negligence, and at length aban doned to that worst of all possible guides, the discretion of the Treasury Bench. There is no other public assembly in the world which holds its sit tings at night—all the business of the world is transacted in the day, with the single exception of British legislation. He who, like me, bas seen the workings of this system, must feel ineffable disgust at its abo minations. I will not attempt to give details—the deciding without hearing is only one of thegt. There were in the last Parliament many youthful, and some aged Tybarites, who flocked in, loaded with wine and victuals, when the division is about to take place, but who attended to their sensual gratihcations whilst the discussion was going on. This system should be reformed—it should be reformed altogether. Fortunately it is in the power of any one member to produce this re form. We need not wait for popular sentiment to awaken in England, where the love of rational liberty has either long slumbered or been con. verted into a prostitute for private and individual advantage,—we need not wait for aid from abroad; this power of correction the honest men in the House have in their own hands. I have therefore pledged myself to the men of Waterford, who have, by unanimous assent, chosen me for their Representative--I have pledged myself to them to move an adjournment at nine o'clock every night. This pledge I will redeem. The Treasury members may defeat me on each division upon the quettion of adjournment ; but, as I am bound to persevere in repeating the motion to adjourn, resistance will be vain, and it will become absolutely necessary to make new arrangements. An arrangement consistent with common sense would be this :—Let the Speaker attend the House at half-after ten, and prayers being said, let the Chair be taken as soon as forty Nlembers appear. Ir, at eleven, there be not forty Members, let the House stand adjourned ; but let every such adjournment be followed, at the next sitting, by a call of the House, and a peremptory order of committal against every absent and unexcused Member. This would secure attendance. It may be said that there would then be no provision made for the sittings of Committees. That, too, could be provided for without difli. culty. The House, at present, sits usually but four days (or rather nights) in the week. Let the House, in future, lit but three days._ Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Let the Committees sit the other days, and let them sit at halt'-after nine, or at latest at ten, in the morn. ing. Thus five times the present quantity of business could be done by the Committees. The regulation of " orders" and " motions" may also be preserved by a slight change. Let there be two order days and one motion day, and two motion days and one order day, in alternate weeks. The public business may thus be effectually done—as effectually at least as the present machinery of misrepresentation will permit. I'he gross absurdity of consuming the nights in doing that which ought, for every reason, to meet the day.light, will be terminated, and one step will be taken to afford a radical remedy to a grievance which appears to me to savour of folly. almost as much as of vice. Do you, my Lord Duke, prepare in time for this change. Let the Session, if necessary, commence sooner—let it last longer—but let the public business be done, as all business should be done, at reasonable hours, and with the full knowledge of those interested. Having been the first person to propose to the British I.egfilature the mode of voting by ballot—the only rational and honest mode of voting, where undue influence, intimidation, or corruption, may prevail ; hav ing had this honour, 1 feel it my duty to make another effort in favour of common sense--an effort wnith, with my determination, must suc ceed, and, therefore being, my Lord Duke, warned in time, it is your ditty to take your measurei accordingly. Perhaps your minions to the House of Commons may tell you of the little support I received in the last Session. Perhaps they may tell you bow l was deserted by " the Whigs"—avoided by the " Tories' Derrynane Abbey, Aug. 28. REPRRSEAVTATION OF SOUTHWARK. MEETING OF DISSENTERS IN FAVOUIt OF LORD JOHN RUSSELL Yesterday evening, a numerous meeting of Dissenters and others was held at the City of London Tavern, with a view of devising the best means to obtain the co-operation of the Dissenters of London, who are electors of Southwark, to procure the return of Lord John Russell for that borough, in lieu of the late J. R. Harris, Esq. At half-past six o'clock, Taos. Wrzsow, Esq. took the Chair. He stated the objects of the meeting, and eulogized the conduct of the Noble Lord in whose cause the meeting had been called. He considered that the dissenters of England owed a debt of gratitude to Lord John Rus sell for his zeal, in pressing upon the attention of the House of Com. mons the repeal of the Test and Corporation ACLi. Ministers were nt present looking much to public opinion as their guide, and he firmly believed that as a reformed House of Commons must soon take place, that the people would effect that reform.--(Hear. hear, hear.) Lord John ltussell would not waste a fortune in his endeavours to get into Parliament for the Borough of Southwark—the time, he hoped, had gone by when candidates were expected to enter the town with flags, on which were denoted the amount they intended to give to each voter. He thought the Borough of Southwark would do itself honour by re. turning Lord Jahn Russell, and he therefore cordially supported the objects of the present meeting. Mr. PELLATT, of St. Paul's Church-yard, read a variety of letters in support of the objects of the meeting; thew were from Messrs. Hankies, the Hankers; Rogers, Towgood, and Co. Bankers; the Rev. Joseph Fletcher, and from some other clergymen of respectability in the Dissenting world ; they all warmly espoused the cause of Lord John Russell—a debt of gatitude to whom was due by the Dissenters gene rally, for the great and successful exertions he made for a repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. THOMAS WOOD, Esq. rose to move the first resolution ; in doing so, he observed that the Dissenters ought to take shame to themselves for not having long ere that time testified their gratitude, in a public manner, to the noble lord who had wrought such a change in their behalf, by the repeal of the Test Acts; that noble lord had upheld, in the truest sense of the word, the glory of his ancestors, and shown that he was a worthy scion of their house; it was a feet, that government was at all times anxious to buy up talent at any price ; but amid all the temptations thrown out by the Court, and all the temptations by which a young man like his Lordship was surrounded, he still nobly stood on independent grounds, and that he was superior to every temptation. After glancing at his Lordship's recent defeat at Bedford, and the late events in France, Mr Wood concluded by moving that Lord John Russell, by his noble exertions in the cause of Civil and Religious Li. berty, in bringing about the Test and Corporation Acts, is entitled to the gratitude of all Dissenters.—(loud cheers.) Mr. Pazzarr seconded the Resolution. BENJAMIN WOOD, E'q. brother to Ald. Wood, rose to address the meeting. He said he was not opposed to the resolutions which had just been read, but he wished to set the meeting right, that it might not act ' under any delusion as to Lord John Russell's sentiments.—(Here great opposition to the speakcr was evinced.) He begged to read a letter which he had in his pocket, written by Lord John Russell, in which he said, that if Mr. Calvert intended to stand for the repre sentation of Southwark, he should eneounter no opposition from his Lordship. The confusion again became extreme, and Mr. Wood con. eluded by saying that Lord John Russell would not allow his name to be used as a candidate so long as Mr. Calvert showed any disposition to come forward. Mr. APTHOMPE explained, that Mr. Calvert had stated he never would canvass the elt.ctors, and it was the opinion of his Committee that he ought to canvass. At this stage of the proceedings, a gentleman of the name of Carpen. ter, presented himself from the bottom of the room, but was opposed, and a scene which would have disgraced a bear-garden took place ; he was ultimately heard, and asked whether it were true that Lord John Russell had not himself stated that there were circumstances which would i prevent his Lordship accepting the representation of the Borough of Southwark ? Mr. PELLATT said, that at a Meeting to be held next Monday his Lordship would explain that matter. This Meeting was called to ob tain the co-operation of the Dissenters in support of Lots! John Russell, in the event of his standing. After sonic lengthened remarks from Dr. Styles, eulogizing the ex ertions of his Lordship for his manly, independent, persevering, and successful efforts in the cause of civil and religious liberty, the resolu tion was adopted, and others to the effect that Lord John Russell should be returned by the Dissenters free of expense. 111 E ARMY. Wednesday, the let division of the 37th Regiment marched from ' Enniskillen for Cork, where the Regiment is to embark for the island of Bermuda.

Betting 2 to 1 each against Harriet and Conciliation, the former for choice, and sto one apt each of the others. Harriet sprung off at her best pace, seconded by Fancy, the oilier two being beat off at first by the severity of the pace. Harriett maintained her lead till within 20 strides' of home, and then declined, Fancy getting in front ; here Conciliation, from downright game, gut up to Fancy's quartets ; but all Boyce's persuasion could not get het further; indeed, in the last stride or two she tired, and was beat at length : the winner rode by Conolly ; Harriet, by Pa via ; and Mr. Theobakri by Macdonald.

Squire, Esq. on view of the body of a fe. male, who died on her passage from London, by the City of London derry steam vessel. No light having been thrown on the mysterious circumstances connected wall her appearance and death, the inquisi tion has been adjourned to Monday week, in order to give time for the return of the vessel, and to communicate the fact to her friends, through means of the public press. The following information has been collected from various passengers by the steamer. Her check-ticket was found in her pocket, and it appears by it that she was booked by the name of Mrs. Pascoe, and paid her passage-money. She was accompa nied on board by two females, who hastily left her, and she retired to the steerage cabin. Not long after her arrival she was taken ill, a nd was heard to moan repeatedly ; the greatest attention was paid to her by the Stewardess, and on Monday, about twelve o'clock. she was taken on deck, to try whether the fresh air might not relieve ner. She became delirious, and seemed to be suffering trent extreme exhaustion. Feeling n 9 amelioration, she was kindly taken into the deck cabin, where she shortly after expired. she had with her a little basket with apples ; and halt* a sovereign and six shillings were found in her pocket, together with a card with the address "Miss Wood, Mrs. lionhy well, 30, Prince's-road, Lambeth:" She had no change of linen, and that on ber person was marked "P. D. P." She was appa rently about thirty-four years of age ; had auburn hair, and was of a fair appearance. Her face after death assumed a livid aspect, and her body has been examined, subsequently to the inquisition, by a surgeon, who found no symptoms of disease, but was of opinion that she had been delivered of a child within the two preceding weeks. The sur mises and conjectures relative to her sitnathe in life and sudden death are various, and naturally excited by the .extraordinary circumstances shove stated. Her body was landed from the steamer to the Prince George Inn. and as the steamer immediately left for Dublin, no further particulars have been ocertaintd but the above from the passenger; who landed here. — Plymouth Weekly Journal. „. e 4, •f
