'5 Numbers of English fami lies continually at Brussels, to enjoy the agreeable society h this city offers to strangers, and also the picteresque and diversified beauties of the environs. The English ale ays had a particular attachment to the capital of Brabant. The hotels and lodging-houses, which have long stood empty, are crowded with strangers ; among other distin guished persons now here, is the celebrated Lady Hamittlin. • Tha English company of comedians acuto4ght for the first time. The number of foreign troops who ate to occupy .the Belgian provinces, till the'eonelnsion of the Con- OR at Vio.utia is now fixed' the Hanoverians con gilt of 30 battalions : of' foot, a corps of artillery on t A y:KI on liorsebeett,: and two regiments of hus sar'. The artillery and' one regiment of hussars, are obesely here : the first column of the infantry is ex- Otte on the '2sth, and will be followed by the others. Two regiments of English Guardh and a corps of cavalry, are to form the garrison of Brus sels. Our garrisons are to consist' Of -Itft Dogfish ittiments of infantry, four of cavalry, and enume tugs divsion of artillery. All these troops .are: on the•war establishment. The Dutch troops occupy a great part of the banks of the Sambre and Meuse. — The Belgian Legion consists of four regiments of the line, two of chasseurs, one of dragoons, one of hus sars, and a good corps of artillery, aro to occupy cur frontiers on the side of France. It is believed that several new corps of Belgian troops will be im mediately raised. . All the Austrian- Officers, Civil •as well as Mili tary, wholtetelitte on missions from their Govern meet, have left es from,tinve to time to return to Germany, The PrOssian Officers btill here are con eidered-as travellers. -. The Prince of Orange Nassau has taken a step /which insures him the blessings of the inhabitants of Brussels, who, for these four years, have been de prived of the income of their capitals. The city was able to pay, but when the time of payment at tired the money was sent by the Government to Paris. They are now to receive the interest for Mt, and, in the sequel, for 1812, 13, and 14. Baessto, Aua. 17.—Thetruite Of Wellington is still in this city : his protracted stay is attributed to various political and military, objects. Ilia Excel lency, accompanied by his Royal Highness the He reditary Prince of Orange, - has been to Namur to flitritit the siteation of the city ana thp remains of the wociLp, as well as the fort upon thq hin t at the 6tifient'ilf the Sambre and the Maur. • The Prince ioffthe English General were received with incon ceivable jay. The Mich troops, with the Com- Maritlant, General Stedman, et their head, were un der arms. The people teak the bodes from the ciarriage and drew it; amid tlie loudest acclamations, siith ringing of bells and Alring of minim,. to the: Betel. r . Thd Hereditary Prince and the Duke, with se veral Officers of the Engineers, immediately began to' email* the place, on which they employed two whole day 3. Every thing indicates that Namur will soon be made a place of arms of first magnitude, and one of the chief bulwarks of Belgium. Charleroi, Mons, Tourney, and Menin, will likewise be strengthened, and with Ypres and Veurne make a itrong barrier towards the 'French frontier. It is Ofirmed that England is inclined to contribute the Groat eapence that this will occasion. It is sold that two couriers have arrived at Ostend from Landon, All dispatches of the highest import twice. The English in 4 American CoMmissioners at, 4 Ghent haveimi four conferences; but it seems from several Int nsu cs that are there taken ) ~ that the neo adieus will l.e of long duration. Many addresses have been presented to the Prince of Orange, requesting that our provinces may be permitted to send Commissioners to Vienna during the Congress, to watch over our interests. Luntcs., AUG. 12.--General Vandamme has met •Ntitli a remarkable accident. The ship on board which he was, was struck by lightning in the Baltic, and greatly damaged. He was forced to stop at Gothland, when General Vandamme came on board a Swedish vessel to Warnemund. Though travelling in the Lb:trader of a Postmaster, he was recognised Rostock wards him, and pelted by the boys in is strati, with mud. and stones. Eachaage on London, Aug• 13, 32. 2. • We this day give two more documents of import ance, explanatory of t t he conduct •of Sweden to wards Norway. That of his Swedish Majesty, or rather BERNADOTTP., towards Prince 01'11911am, has been most Insulting indeed. The letter of the Prince, demanding, among Esther things, that _hos. tilities should . ,111.aespen!,led, itt order that the (Pl' Diet might deliberate wi!ltfitedom, was returne unopened by 'llpelViti:Of / lweeytii , , as coming fro m one, whom, " if his Majesty did not consider as a 'Awl,.

Thii is the antount of BrusAnorres• justice and Politeness. ‘.lt i o a try that he. adds, " The King is ready to, listen to , - the Norwegians themselves, and not' to any illegi timate authorities speaking in their persons, and teflit interestsdismeiricaily opposite le th eirs." How proud and condeicending at the same time. The 'King of. SWEDEN was actually ready to give audi ences to every; Norwegian who had anything to say about this ipvasion of his country! But his Majesty could not listen to any - One, particularly 'the Her / i reditary Prince of Deamark, who pretended to heel a collective voice., Notwithstanding this extrit ordinary condescension, we have heard of no levees of the sort being ever 'held.

None are so blind as those that will not led. This is the convenient film which obscures the vlifliii! of BERNADOTTE and Co., and whisii is wished to be extended to the eyes of the people of. Norwity. 4 The King, his Sovereign, they say, has gismo up the country by treaty—so much the worse for the Nor- ' wegians, and so mach more reason have they for wishing to be iudependent.
