A free people of four millions of Belgians are treated with affected scorn by the great powers, and it is pretended they can dispose of them as they please. Those, however, who reason thus, forget the thirty years wars which the then powerful Spanish monarchy waged, and in vain, in these very provinces. They forget also the fruitless exertions of the Austrian monarchy, for two centuries, to maintain a foot ing in Switzerland, with still fewer inhabitants. The truth is, that in a national war the fighting men are ten times more in proportion than any army of mercenaries to be drawn from the same population. Then, mercenaries em ployed against freemen are not equal to mercenaries against mercenaries. They may obey orders, but it is only as ma chines; whereas every free soldier makes the cause his own. We should not despair, therefore, of the Belgians (if true to themselves), even if all the reports and projects put abroad by the Orange faction had foundation, either in fact, or probability. The free press of Belgium may copy these Orange exaggerations, but the editors should always explain their wily origin. As for the British Government, we an swer, for its own character and its respect for the English people, that it would not lend itself to any Utopian project, whose object' is the oppression of Belgium. Such things are printed merely for the purpose of creating distrust and distraction : and they uri . „inate, for the most part, in the Cabinet of the Hague. ". PANORAMA OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE.

Se. vend gentlemen from Cheltenham, well known for their strenuous ex ertions in the cause of reform, attended by particular request. Mrs. Yorke, of Stanton Court, has commenced letting land in small portions to the poor people of the parish, according to their families, fur garden plats. Saturday afternoon, as Mr. Dayly, surgeon, of Blagdon, was riding home from Bristol, his horse's foot came in contact with a curb-stone projecting from the footpath near the Coach and Hones, at Ashton. The horse stumbled, and fell ; and Mr. B. was thrown off with such violence es to fracture.bis skull, and cause his immediate death. DIED.—In York Place, Ann, widow of the Rev.

We regret that it Is not in our power to slate, that the differences be- . 1 tween the pitmen and the coal-owners are at an end. The workmen of the coal mines of Abe Tyne and Wear, to the extent, we should sup pose, of seventeen thousand men, are still out of employment. Tice only collieries where the pitmen have renewed their engagements fur the ensuing year, are Bunion Main, Percy Main, Willington, Heaton, Coilodge an di Benwell. But notwhintantling their engagements, out of these six collieries the men are only working at one, namely, at Wil. Heston. The rest are no doubt deterred from proceeding in the dis charge of their duty from the influence of the great majority of those who raisin unbind. This is a state of things which every man of or dinary teflectiun or ordinary feeling must deeply regret. To the week. men themselves and their families it must be productive of distress and embarrassment; to the shopkeepers in the surrounding district it must be very injutious, and to the coal owners and the trade of the place ge nerally it cannot fail to he productive of mischievous consequences.— In recommending a speedy and immediate adjustment of the matters in dispute, therefore, between the employers and employed, we are doing that which is obviously for the interest not only of the parties them selves, but of the public. Tne following are the final resolutions of the coal owners, as to the general terms to be offered to their pitmen for the ensuing 12 months t That each able-bodied hewer be supplied with work, to enable him to earn 28s. per fortnight at the least; the fortnight to consist of eleven working days—subject, nevertheless, to the power retained by the coal owners in the second article of the bond, of dividing the work so as to enable the men to earn she 214. in not less then nine working days. That the wages of the driven be the same as last year, viz, Is. 2d. per day, and the day's works at the crane to be twelve hours. That, in future, the binding shall be held on the first Saturday in the month of January, thus ensuring an interval of three months between the publishing of the new and tile expiration of the old bonds, thereby lessening the difficulty and inconvenience of the pitmen providing them selves with dwelling-houses, in case of changing their situation. Resolved, That no alteration is necessary as to the size of the corves, and that the measure which is placed at the top of each pit, trust continue to be the standard by which the contents of the arrive must be regulated as hitherto; and that the fines must remain as at present, being a necessary protection to the owners against negligence or fraud. That the workmen be paid their wages in money, as bas hitherto been the custom, and remain at liberty to supply themselves with candles, gunpowder, and shop goods, wherever they may think proper. That no coal owner carry on his colliery, after the sth of April next, with unbound mat. COPY. March 23, 1831. To his Worshipful the Mayor of Newcastle. Sir,—We the coal workmen of the Tyne and Wear, feel thankful for the promise made unto us, in the letter we received from your Wor ship dated 21st instant, that you would be as a mediator between the coal owners and the coal workmen. We therefore feel glad for an op portunity of laying a statemen, of those articles, which we consider grievances, before you. Ist. An article in the bonds empowers the owners to limit the work. ing days to only nine in the fortnight, in which nine days we are al. lowed as much work as will yield us 235. at the prices foe working, which is mentioned in the bond ; but there is another article the former part of which reads as follows s if through any accident happening the engine or pits, rendering them unfit for working, or any other cause, the pits be Lid of work for more than three successive days, we are to be paid 2s. 6d. per day, but not until we have laid idle three successive days. But, air, that clause in this article which reads thus, or any other cause the pits be laid of work, does, we think, destroy the virtue of the former article ; for if the owners chooseth to keep the coals and nut to send them to market, they may assign it as a sufficient cause for Ilaying the pita off work for three days, Land if we be set to work upon the fourth, we have no claim of any allowance for the loss of such dm:. ; ' but if we lay idle one day when t he ph* is at work, we are under .he penalty of forfeiting 2s. ed. except in a case of sickness, which we think very unreasonable. Again, another article binds the boys to work 14 hours from starting at the crane until ending at the same which, through the distances the crane is ander ground, keeps the boys sometimes 17 hours from home, leaving them only.? or 8 hours a day for every other purpose of life. Again, another article makes the houses we live in part of our wages, so when the time of our hiring is expired, and we are not agreed for the ensuing year, or if we be legally discharged from the colliery, the owners, their agents, or servants, are empoweted to enter such dwelling, turn us with our families and furniture to the door, without having recourse to the legal proceedings of the law. These /track s, sir, we think, is not nor cannot be defended by the laws of Great Britain; therefore we are determined not to bind any more until they are removed from the bond altogether, or made according to the laws of our country. That we may get this done, a resolution was entered into on Monday to send two men to London to lay a statement of them before the House of Commons, while the men intends to keep working unbound, if their employers will let. But as you, sir, promised to intercede for us, we will wait a while, and as we have appointed a meeting of the delegates, on Saturday, 26th inst. one or two then will wait upon you that day for a report of your success, as we are desirous of hav ing the matter settled as soon as possible, as we are altogether de pendant upon work for a livelihood. Again, there is also articles that binds us to pay one shilling for one peck of small coals being sent to bank in one corf of round when we work by the separations wotking ; and whoa any cod sent to bank his splint, or stone, or foul coals in her, we are to pay three pence per quart for such splint or stone, &c. and if more than four quarts, then be subject to the penalty of the civil law, over and above paying three pence per quart • these measures we wish to have softened. Also if the twee' be made ever so much above their measurement, we are not allowed to have them adjusted, so that we have to guess when there is a sufficient quantity of coals in her, but if, when sent to bank, any corf be deficient, we lose the price of the corf altogether, so, by these fines, besides gunpowder and the candles we have to work with, working tools to uphold, and pay ing for the leading of our fire coal, there is from three to sometimes WI shillings in the fortnight deducted from our wages, which reduces them frequently to less than twenty shillings the fortnight, although Mr. Huddle stated before the common council, in the year 1829, that they never were less than twenty-eight shillings; therefore we will be glad of any assistance you feel disposed to give, and will ever remain, ours, &c. (Signed) _THE COAL WORKMEN OF THE TYNE AND WEAR. ThemrinchOins of the bridge of suspension now in progress across the Tees at Whorlton, near Bamardcastle,were un Friday week thrown over the piers, and sa fely moored into the rock on each side, and the workmen are now proceeding in suspending the toad-way, which would be completed ant fit for passage in the course of a month or six weeks. This bridge is from the design of Mr. Green, architect, of this town, under whose direction and superintendence the works ate conducted. The span between the points of su•peneion is 180 feet, and the versed sine of the catenary curve is one-fifteenth of its chord. The project of a College or University in Newcastle was introduced to the notice of the literary and philosophical society on Tuesday even. ing last. On Wednesday last Lord Brougham arrived at York, to receive the freedom of the city voted to him on the 15th of January.

We have taken considerable pains to ascertain from every source through which a prudent man would seek for truth, what are the real causes of the present disorganization of society in the county of Clare. The Mail attri butes every c.lamity to priests and popery—the Pilot, and the other mob oracles, proclaim aloud that the mischief has an been produced by the " 'comfort! aristocracy"—the Poi, stewing betwixt extremes, effinue with confidence that at the door of the and-union agi tation must all the disasters be laid. Now, we, who are bound to no muter, who neither seek nor fear to offend governments, mobs, or ans. tocracies, but who will bear witness to the truth, come what will of it, we assert, from all we an learn, having no local knowledge ourselves, that there Las been breatexaggeration from the beginning, and that he hits wide of the mar who attributes the condition of the County of Clare to the operation of any single cause.-- The " turning up" the land is nothing more than a new form which the disease presents—another channel through which the discontent breaks out, which is not peculiar to Clare, but is common to almost all the counties In the south and west of Ireland. In Kilkenny they took to " Hurling," in Meath to " Walking," and in Clare the people manifest their ini k adence by the novel process of " turning up" the l an d. I n Kileeuny they " hurled" to obtain relief from the pressure of tithes—. in Meath they " walked," in the hope of compelling a rise of wages—. and in Clare they "turn up" the l a nd, because large districts of that fine county have been recently converted into pasture, and thereby the peasantry have been deprived of their usual facilities of obtaining po. taco land, which is their sole means of subsistence. That in every one of these counties the sages of labour are inadequate to the support of the labourer, cannot be denied ; and we fear it le but too true, that in every Instance where turbulence has appeared, there has been wanting that kind consideration foe the labouring cal , without which the gentry of Ire. land can never hope to be surrounded by a happy and contented peasantry. A most numerous and respectable meeting of the nobility, gentry, clergy, and freeholders of the county of Meath, assembled on Monday last, at Naran, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of expressing their approbation of the plan of reform submitted to par. Bement by his Majesty's ministers, and of preparing petitions to both houses of parliament, praying that the same may be passed into a law. On the motion of the Marquis of Ileadfort, seconded by Lord Killeen, the Hon. Edward Reston, high sheriff, was called to the chair, amidst loud cheers. The resolutions passed amidst enthusiastic cheers. The distresses of the Irish peasantry are not confined to the north. western counties. In Limerick three persons died of actual famine last week ; and in Mayo and Donegal, the privations which the wretched people bare endured for some months—and under which many of them have sunl into the grave—can scarcely be deemed susceptible of alle. station from such partial and inconsiderable aid as a few of the resident gentry have been enabled to afford them. Sir Richard O'Donnell, Bt. imported 120 tons of potatoes front Scotland, for the relief of the poor in Mayo ; but even that liberal act can avail them little, unless it be followed up by the timely and munificent co-operation of the landed prtrieture, not of that district only, bet of all Ireland. ILLEGAL lilatattianss.—At the Queen's County Assizes judgment of death was recorded against Richard Sande., formerly Mite of Ma. ryhorough, who was found guilty of buying solemnized a clandestine marriage. He has resided for some years in the neighbourhood of Mountratb, sod was at all times accessible to those happy pairs who sought him with a bottle of whiskey in one hand, and half a crown In the other. Ile has united several hundred persons in unpermitted wed lock in his time, and was an object of terror to all parents within ten miles of his dwelling.
