THURSDAY, OCTOBER '2l. TO CORRESPONDENTS. Vat ions articles which were in type. and ready for this evening's pub lication, are necessarily postponed. This dad• despatches were received at the Foreign Office from his Excellency Lord STUART DE ROTHSAY, our Ambassador at the Court of France. Despatches were also received at the Colonial Office from Major-General Sir JAMES LYON Governor of Barbadoes, dated the 2Sth of August; from lieutenant-General SirC. CoLv ELLE, Governor of the Mauritius, dated June 26; sad from St. Thomas's, dated the 12th of September. We have seen a letter from an English merchant at Ant werp, dated the 18th inst. He states that the spirit dis played in the town was daily becoming more decidedly hostile, and that the Burgher Guard would, ere long, be utterly unable to keep tranquillity in the place. He had sent off his family, and the chief of his property, to Rotterdam, and others were fast following the example. We this day have to lay before our Readers some further accounts fron► Paris of the most unfavourable character. The lawless commotions in that capital continue; and we are sorry, that continuance, in our opinion, betrays a feebleness in the Government, that is not likely to give them a speedy termination. It would appear from the narration of our own correspondent, and the extracts which we have made, that these street mobs, if treated with the usual energy of all Governments which pretend to pre serve tranquillity, might be prevented; and, therefore, that they are not prevented must, we apprehend, be considered as a sign, either that the spirit of disaffection is too extensive, or that the protective authority of Government is not ade quately strong. Whenever the weakness of a Government becomes clearly developed, the worst consequences follow. The King of the French is trying the experiment of govern ing by the affections of the people ; and we think he must feel not a little disappointed. The very first point, on which they even suspect him of having different views from their own, they are on the alert to -mark strongly their determination to place themselves in opposition to his wishes. Were the sentiments of which they suspect him, in - dicative of tyrannical intentions—did they threaten the life or freedom of any popular favourites—there might be some apology for the clamour which disturbs his Go vernment ; but when, on the contrary, the only cause assigneii for the opposition, is a surmise that be is anxious not to take the lives of three or four unfortunate fellow creatures, with whom, however much he may have disapproved their policy, he most probably has been in the habit of personal friendship, and who have not yet had their presumed political offences fairly investigated, all surrounding nations cannot contemplate the scenes now in enacting in Paris, and hear of the demoniac yell for blood, which issues from its infuriate populace, without shudder ing with horror, at what will be the result of such a state of things. We cannot, however, believe that such sentiments as we are condemning, are predominating in Paris ; and we are rejoiced to hear from our Correspondent, that the Burgeoise and National Guards in their conduct, condemn and disavow them. We are sure they must be detested by all Paris and all France, but the veriest refuse of society. It is, however, salutary, although rather mortifying, to ontemplate such scenes, u thou to which we now allude. The last achievements of the Parisians, and 4 ' b gloire das frau fours'' had almost dazzled all Europe into an idea, that popular violence could never take a wrong di rection ; and thus, by unduly appreciating its hazards, had diminished that cautionary horror, which former revolu tionary excesses had usefully impressed on the memory and imagination. FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. RECEIVED THIS DAT. PARIS, OCTOBER 19. In a postscript to my last letter of the 16th, I gave you a hurried account of a riotous assemblage in front of the Palais Royal, which had for its ostensible object, to express dissa tisfaction at the intention which it is said exists to save the unfortunate state prisoners. For the last two subsequent evenings, similar disgraceful scenes have occurred; and yes terday evening, the 18th, the mob assembled became at last so numerous and violent, as evidently to have been viewed with some uneasiness by the inmates of the Palace and the Government. To be able to convey to you an accurate idea of the fearful drama which is now daily, or rather nightly, transacting, before the palace of the King of the French—before the palace of a King newly selected by the sovereign majesty of this people—and who has yet studiouly courted their favour—l was present in the street from the first nucleus of the mob until its full growth and final dissolution. It commenced, as it did on the former evening, by a few, of what you would call, regular blackguard boys, vociferating occasionally " Down with the Ministers —Death to Polignac, &c."—l noticed that the most noisy one of this rabble, was the same individual that I mentioned in my last, had lost part ofhis originally ragged coat, in hie struggle with one of the national guards. He is not so young as the others ; and although rather handsome, has a determined expression of oountenance, which, if I mistake not, marks him as well calculated for mischief. He had no flag on this evening. The mob gradually aggregates as they do in London, by the stopping of passengers and others, who assemble from curiosity ; and there might be at ono time from 2 and 3000. At last the active central force be came more numerous and noisy. They placed a plasard on a wall near to the front of the Palace, and being dark, had candles held that it might be read.— I endeavoured to get near enough to peruse it; but the number who were anxious to do the same, prevented me from attaining my object. I was told, however, that it was directed against the existing Administration ; and had in it, " A bas les Ministres-4 bas M. Guizot " : Nothing can be more unjust than the unpopularity of that truly respect able man—M. Guizot ; and it is evident these mobs are got up by artful enemies to the Ministry. The National Guards, at last, by marching three or four a-breast, drove, or rather gently pushed, the mob before them, till they cleared the Palais Royal, and then the assemblage continu ed in the space at the end of the Rue St. Honore. The shopkeepers of Paris are truly alarmed at these proceedings, and some of them, in the immediate vicinity, endeavour to persuade the decent part of the mob to withdraw. Late at night the mob became less, by the retirement of the more respect able; and the more noisy marched down the street, on their way, it was said, to Vincennes. 'have been out all this morning to gain intelligence, and I learn that the mob went absolutely to Vincennes, and were joined by parties of country people on the road, with a view to drag forth the unfortunate objects of their wrath ; but after making a riot there, retired again as they went. They declare their intention, it is said, to meet and accomplish their lawless object to-night ; but all the National Guard are on duty, and some thousands of them aro gone to Vincennes, no doubt to protect the prison. The most daring expression of sentiment I have observe d on t bewails to-day, is what is chalked on a wall near the left hand cor ner of the Palais Royal ; it is—" La tte de Polignac ou de Louis Phillipe." I have great apprehensions of a serious riot to-night, and tremble almost to remain with such people. I must, however, say that the National Guards, on whose honour the Government have wisely placed entire reliance appear actuated by a real disapprobation of the riotous acts of the mob. I fear the Government are too weak—N apo leon would soon have made all this smooth. I. L. CITY, ONE O'CLOCK. Consols, which left off yesterday at 84 for the Account, opened at 83, and at present they are 84, with little doing. The Bears, who have opened a successful campaign, are de termined to maintain their ground, and are watching the movements of the Bulls, who are fighting shy at present : as it appears, they have had a severe drubbing. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet. CITY, HALF-PAST TWO. The great agitation which prevailed for these two days past in the funds has in a great measure subsided, and the panic which prevailed yesterday it is said was attributed is the death of the great Scotch agent, who was a Bull of up wards of 800,000 consols. Consols which were done, in the early part of the morning, at 832, have improved to 84 , for the account, and 83j 84, for money. In the Foreign Market all Securities are rather higher, but no business doing. A Leeward Island Mail has arrived, which left St. Tho , mas on the 12th of September, brings letters from Laguira, of the 29th July.—No political news of consequence. PARIS, OCT. 19.—The most positive orders have been issued to the Garde Nationale to disperse by force, if neces sary, all groups that may be formed, or attempted to be formed at the Palais Royale, and in other quarters, this and succeeding nights. The number of persons arrested dur ing last night was beyond 100. I feel bound to remark that, notwithstanding the very alarming character of the informa tion contained in this letter, the Funds have experienced little variation, and no depression this day,which proves that nothing serious is apprehended ; but, it must also be observed, that the recognition of this Government by Russia has contri buted to prevent depression. TIPPEZA RY ELlCTlON.—Measures the moat energetic and determined will be adopted by the friends of Mr. Wise, in this country, in the event of any attempt being made to unseat him. In connection with this subject a meet* will be held in Clonmel on Taeeday.—Cleassei Advertiser. TIM KING'S COURT. BRIGHTON, OM 90.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. The following extracts are from the Mont leer of Tuesday :-... `• For some days attempts to cause disorder have taken place In some quarters of Paris. Placards havebeen postedJand cries have been beard, that tumultuous assemblies are formed, calling for the death of men who are placed in the bands of justice and menacing the judges who will not obey these injunctions. Such acts, such cries, are repro. bated by all the laws and sentiments which are honoured by good men. A very small number of persons have taken part in them. All the sound part of the population of Paris are afflicted at these occurrences, which impair and compromise their best in. tercets. If they continue, the independence of the magistracy and the security of the citizens will receive a great blow. In the circumstance which appears to have caused them, there is no pretext to warrant these acts. The Government, which thinks that the univer. sal and immediate abolition of the penalty of death is not possible, thinks also, after an attentive examination, that to restrict capital pu nishment to the only cases in which necessity legitimately justifies it, it is necessary to have time for a long enquiry. Bur it knows, in the mean time, that its Ent duty is the firm maintenance of the independ ence of Judges, and of the safety of all persons. It knows that the honour as well as the repose of society arc held on these terms. It guarantees them from all violence. Orders are given to disperse all tu. multuous assemblies, to interdict all placards, and all injurious or me. tracing cries. Their authors will be pursued and punished according to law. Sustained by reason and the sentiments of citizens the principal protectors of justice will triumph over the momentary action of some passions which are fomented and exploded by our common enemies. " Some journals have mentioned that the King has remitted the sen. tence pronounced against Messrs. Hebert and Thierry by the Tribunal of Correctional Police. The statement is false. " The prefect of the Seine has ordered that the Chamber of Commerce shall have an extraordinary sitting tomorrow, to which the deputies named by the city of Paris are invited. It is to consider the important commercial question relative to the earepoi. The ',knitter likewise contains the King's ordinance !or investing the Minister of Finance with the 30 asillions (of francs) credil for assist. ing commercial industry : it says " There shall be formed in Paris a commission of commerce, which shall be charged with receiving and examining the demands of merchants and manufacturers of Paris and the departments for loans or advances; " With the verification of the value of the securities offered, in real estates, commercial effects, merchandise, or other valuables ; 66 {Pith the classification of the demands according to their degree, and the apportionment of tho monks for each. " The ordinance then goes on to specify that the advances shall be made in cash at 4 per cent. interest, or in Treasury bonds, payable at 6, 12, and 18 months." Le Temps contains a lone article, entitled " Justice and not Yen. geance," very ably reprehending the popular feeling, of which Paris seems now to be the theatre. It has another article enforcing the necessity of a more activeurming of the National Guards throughout the departments. Le National, in an elaborate article, admits that the Government In. tendon of interposing the abolition of the penalty of death, to save the ez-31inisters, has been an utter failure, and alludes forcibly to the great distress which now afflicts the commercial interests of France. It also discusses in detail the state of parties. The Journal des Debate is very uneasy at some letter of the Abbe de la Mennais, about enforcing the independence of the Catholic church, and the abandonment of the Government allowance to the clergy. AI the journals co-operate in declaring the great distress of the book trade, and strongly recommending the claims of this respectable class to the commission now sitting to assist commerce and industry. BELGIUM. From the Journal de la Belgique of Monday. GHENT, OCT. 15.—A deplorable affair took place yes terday afternoon, at four o'clock, between the volunteers of Brussels and the people of Ghent on the one side, and part of our Burgher Guard on the other. We give the Met authentic accounts that we have been able to collect. A rumour had been spread in the city accusing the officers of our Burgher Guard of attempting to convey provisions into the citadel. Assemblages were formed round the barrack of St. Pierre, and threatening cries were heard. Some posts of 1 the Burgher Guard were attacked, and disarmed. Some vo lunteers of Brussels came up to second the people. A num ber of Burghers were so imprudent as:to fire. They were pur sued to the Place d'Armes, whether other assemblages dis armed the Burgher Guard. But the main action was in the plain of the Recollets, where masses of the Burgher Guard, on foot and horseback, were convoked, though most of them did not know wherefore. In an instant the crowd, descend ing from Montague St. Pierre, broke in on them, carried off sabres and muskets, and drove the Burgher Guard, partly towards the bridge of the Recollets, and partly towards the Rues de Soleil and des Champes. Meantime, Colonel Pont.- coulant, and other Officers, all Belgians, went to the Place d'Armes, between the crossing fires, and succeed ' ed in clearing the Place of the people and the volun teers. The people were not strong enough to disarm the post of the Government, which was supported by the firemen, who had just arrived from their barrack with three cannon. A brisk fire of musketry took place here. Messrs. A. Bsancoup, of Antwerp, who fought at Paris and Bras. sett, and M. H. Schauwenbergbe, of Ghent, stepped from the ranks of the Burgher Guard, and went up to the mouths of the cannon, and asked the firemen if they intended to fire en Belgians t M. de Pontecoulant ordered the firemen to be summoned immediately to take the cannon bac** their barracks. This order was immediately executed.2oo volantosts who had followed their comrades front Brussels without arm 4, are now provided with sabres and muskets. The people also tained arms at the Town-hall, and this morning, they are searching the private houses of the Burgher Guard. Order is restored. Prudent measures are taken by the civil and military authorities to prevent disorders. The night pa sse d quietly. The volunteers have fraternized with that part of the Burgher Guard who had returned to their arms. The posts are occupied in common ; there is no appearanc e uf pillage. The people understand that their mission is wholly political. They will make it agree with the respect due tc persons and property. A citizen talking with his brother, without thinking of mingling in the fray, was killed by a ball. Two volunteers are missing. It is said that a how. painter was killed on his ladder. There are ten or twelve wounded—two or three severely. We i l learn that the people have got possession of a great quantity of muskets at the chateau of Charles V. M r Coppens, commander of our Burgher Guards, arrived this morning from Brussels. His necessary absence from his corps at so critical a moment is much regretted. Viscount de Culleat is wounded in the arm: he has, however, visited. the different quarters of the city, w ith M. Coppers. Great advantages are expected from the co-operation of these gentlemen. The cries of Viva /a Liberte ! are heard in all parts of the city. Speedy measures have been taken for guarding the House of Correction, where there are now 1,500 prisoners. It is important that volunteers should occupy that poet. Negociations have been going on since yesterday with the garrison of the citadel, which will soon surrender. SPEECH OE HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCE or ORANGE TO THE BTH REGIMENT OP HUSSARS, COM- POSED ALMOST ENTI BELT OF BELGIANS:- " Officers, Sub-Officers, and Native Soldiers of Belgium I—l have learned that the great question which is in agita tion, of the separation of Belgium from Holland, spreads uneasiness in your ranks, and might lead you to commit grave errors. I have, therefore, hastened to come among yotA as be who assisted you in the fields of Quatre Bras and Wa terloo, to conquer your national independence with arms in our hands. At present, my friends, on the question of sepa ration which is soon to be decided definitively, it is important that the blood of Belgians should not again flow : my mis sion being a mission of peace, let my appeal, which is known to you by my Proclamation of the sth of October, be an swered, and we shall restore calm, and trouble will cease. " Defenders of the country ! remain faithful to your co lours, and wait with confidence the result of my efforts." THE SPEECH OF TILE WING OF THE NETHERLANDS, ON OPENINO THE SESSION OF THE STATES-GENERAL. " Noble and mighty Lords,—The zeal which charac terised your deliberations during the last Extraordinary Ses sion of the States-General—the wisdom, the prudence, and the patriotism of which you have given proofs upon this occasion, have not been followed by a result which has ful filled my expectations. I bad reason to expect, particularly after the perfect accord which was manifested between the Sovereign and the Representatives of t►e nation. that an immediate and constituted examination of the desires which have been manifested, would have exer cised all the moral influence necessary to re-establish every ' where, in the meantime, repose and tranquillity. My ex pectation has been deceived in a deplorable manner. Up to that period, obedience to the laws, and the preservation of the legal forms, were always the first considerations, and prin cipally favoured those desires and complaints. At a later period, the impetuous passion of a blind and excited multi tude were not controlled by reflection—they lighted up a vio lent rebellion, and the efforts of the army of the State to second the hopes of the well-intentioned were sufficient to put down the revolts. " Even before their arrival at Brussels, the military forces destined for the protection of the inhabitants had been as sailed, although they had previously received a solemn as surance of indulgence and peace ; in that city they expe rienced the most murderous resistance. " Since then, the armed opposition against the legal Government has extended more and more in the southern provinces ; and its progress has been so alarming and so rapid that, for the defence of the faithful provinces of the Netherlands, and the security of their commerce, I took the necessary measures with respect to the sea and land forces, declared movable a part of the communal guards, prepared fora levy en masse, and called for a voluntary, arming of the inhabitants of those countries. " The enthusiasm with which this appea I was recei red and the fresh marks of attachment to my house which I received on that occasion, have afforded some mitigation to the pain with which my heart is afflicted, by the idea that a handful of rebels was able to detach such a favoured and interesting population from a Government, under which they had attained a degree of prosperity and riches before un known to it, and enjoying, as well in its public and prirste rights, as in its political, civil, and religious liberties, the largest share of protection. " The expectation that the greater part of that popula tion would, after mature reflection, wish for a return of those benefits, decided me to invest my beloved son, thel Prince of Orange, with the temporary Government of those parts of the Southern Provinces which remained faithful, and to oon fide to him the care of procuring the re-establishment, as far as possible, of legal order, by means of persuasion, in the rebel Provinces. " In this manner, by an administrative separation, I pre ' pared, as much as depended on myself, the developement of the opinion manifested by the States-Gleneral in their last Extraordinary Session ; and by this means I was enabled to devote my attention more exclusively to the Northern Pro vinces, and to employ their strength and resources solely for their interests. At the same time, I gave to all my subjects, and to the whole of Zurope, a proof that nothing had been neglected to bring back the misguided to a sense of their duty. " Fortified with the deep consciousness of having kept the solemn oath which I took, respecting the fundamental law, and of having unceasingly laboured to co-operate, as fat as was in my power, in the promotion of the prosperity of the people of the Netherlands, I wait with calmness for i <y 1 ( I I 1~ 'I
