" We there saw that your Majesty had asked for the intervention of the Powers, parties to the treaties of Paris and Vienna, only to stifle the rebellion, and that your Majesty had acceded to a suspension of arms, which should maintain entire the territory of the united provinces. We participate in the sorrow which the measures of the Plenipotentiaries have excited in your Majesty, for although the States-General and the nation which they represent, far from desiring a re-union with the southern provinces, ask nothing more ardently than a final separation, they are, however, of opinion that the acknowledgment of the independence of Belgium ought to bo accompanied by reason ible conditions, relative as well to the indemnities for the sacrifices which we have made and to the security and independence of the ancient territory of the united provinces, comprehending the possessions of the State nut of Europe, also to the division and liquidation of the debt, and, in a word, to the guarantee and determination of the interest of both parties. The States-General agreeing with the sentiments of your Majesty, consequently applaud the noble and dignified manner in which those sentiments have been manifested, in the declaration which your Majesty has communicated to us, and the result of which is separation from Belgium on equitable conditions. But, Sire, to attain this object we mu s t v i gorous l y preserve the pledges and securities which are still in our possession, and which may serve for this object. We do not speak of armaments to reconquer Belgium; but we desire the defence of our frontiers, as well as the preserva tion of our military positions—and the more so, as we are opposed to an enemy over whom the voice of the Foreign Powers appears not to have sufficient influence to oblige them to keep in check the bands of plunderers, or to release several of our officers, whom they keep prisoners, contrary to all laws of nations. " We flatter ourselves that the declarations made by your Majesty, as well with regard to the manner in which you have hitherto thought it proper to act, as to the con duct which you may observe in future, in consequence of the non-observation of the conditions imposed upon the Belgians, will suffice to attain that end. " It is, therefore, with satisfaction that we have re ceived the last communication which your Majesty has made to us. We flatter ourselves that your last protest will contribute to a speedy determination of equitable conditions. The interests of the nation absolutely require it, in order that, after having been the innocent victim of the disasters which the rebellion has caused, it may not be also exposed to losses which in the sequel might endanger the public credit, hazard its political existence, and give a fatal blow to the creditors of the state. "After having thus satisfied our desire of manifesting our sentiments on these important interests, we think our selves no less obliged to express to your Majesty our grati tude for the care which you have announced your inten tion of bestowing upon the organization of our internal economy, and the modifications which have become neces sary in the fundamental law. In fact, Sire, that the united Netherlands, forming as they used to do a separate state, may hope to preserve their independence; that the inhabitants may flatter themselves with the return of pros perity, as an indemnity of the losses which they have suf fered ; that the State may fulfil its engagements it will be necessary not only to exert all our effoi is to obtain and secure just conditions in our foreign 'relations, but w e must also endeavour to make in our internal ad- ministration the modifications by which it will be possible to make great savings without injuring any of the securities of our public liberties, and the well-under stood interests of the State. Without these securities, Sire, no Government whatever can long maintain public order and tranquillity. The moment when your Majesty shall lay before us the laws on this subject which you have announced is eagerly expected by the States-General, which will then examine clnscientiously and coolly whether the principle of Ministerial responsibility, as well as the other modifications required by circumstances or which expe. rience may have recommended, might be con,titutionally introduced into our fundamental law, the essence of which is s liberal. .• We too, Sire, are sensible of the importance and diffi culty of the circumstances into which we have been brought, how painful and unmerited are the misfortunes which befal us ; but when we observe at the same time the spirit of concord, order, magnanimous self-denial which animates the Dutch people, as well as the energy and pa triotism which it displays, we do not suffer ourselves to despair ; our ardour is animated on the contrary more and more, to tread with perseverance in the steps of our fathers, full of confidence in the Alm;ghty. In the midst of political storms, we will prove to Europe and to the civilized world, what a people can effect who unite courage and energy to concord, to true love of liberty, and respect and attachment to legitimate authority. The Dutch na tion thus expressing its horror at rebellion and violence, with a firm resolution to sacrifice life and fortune for the independence of its territory, will deserve the esteem of other nations, and may claim to have its rights respected by foreign Sovereigns." THE HAGUE, FEB. 6. —For some days past there is a report of a twelfth protocol of the five great Powers, by which the debt between Holland and Belgium is regulated. We have also heard of a thirteenth protocol, by which an alliance of mutual protection between Holland, Hanover, and Belgium is to be formed. This last is much doubted. The former finds more belief. There are accounts from various quarters of petty in cursions made by the insurgents into our territory. Mel linet with his band continues to occupy the right bank of the Maese, at a certain distance from Maestricht, where they commit their usual excesses. It seems, by a letter from Maestricht, received at Aix.•la-Chapelle, on the 3d of this month, the Belgian troops had approached nearer to the fortress, and it was apprehended that the communi cation with it might be speedily interrupted. ?ETERSBUROIT, JAN. 26. Count Diebitsch has addressed the following order 01 ;he day to his army : "ORDER OF THE DAY. " GRODNO, JAN. 1 (13.) " The favour of our august Monarch calls me for the se cond time to the command of the army in the field. With joyful confidence in the protection of the Most High, in the most just contest, I accept with reverence this honourable proof of the confidence of our gracious master. The hand of the Almighty, brave warriors, will bless your efforts: Thirty years' experience in your ranks has taught me to trust in you. I know that a commander who loves you, who never lost sight of his duty, and who has always set you the example of strict performance of his duty as a soldier, may always depend on your love and confidence. "We are going to a contest to which we are all strangers—a contest which the faithful hearts of the Russians could never have foreseen. We are going to re duce the agitators who have caused the kingdom of Poland to revolt against our adored Sovereign, who had loaded with innumerable benefits those ungrateful traitors, and had but lately granted to many of them a gracious pardon. The criminal objects of these rebels even threatened the life of the august Brother of our Sovereign, who was for 15 years their beneficent guide and protector. " The bayonets of the Russians shall teach them that treason is as impotent as criminal ; Russian discipline and valour shall bring back to order the folly and scandalous licentiousness. " But while we punish with severity the rebels who ob stinately persevere in their crimes, let us not forget that repentance and return to their duty will again make them our brothers ; nay, that the punishment of the obstinate criminal as soon as he is awakened belongs to none of us, but to the law. ' The peaceable inhabitant who receives us without hostility must not only find in us Mends and defenders, but also be convinced by our canduct that we are children of a magnanimous father, that we are destined by his be nevolence and compassion to be the protectors of the weak against the conspirators, who cover their wicked aims and sham, ful vices under the name of pretended freedom. " The nations of the East praise the exemplary con duct of the Russians, the gratitude of our brethren shall be the echo of our glory. " The soldier, who unworthy of the name of Russian, departs from the virtues of our people, will find in me an inexorable judge ; bet I joyfully express my entire con viction that I shall find none such in your ranks. "Let us then with joyful courage and firm confidence enter on the sacred struggle for the Emperor and our country. God Almighty will bless us, that we may give to the world a new proof that Russian soldiers are always ready to execute with valour and fidelity the sacred will of our beloved Monarch, and never to yield up to external or internal enemies the smallest part of that which has been victoriously acquired by the blood of the Russians. (Signed) "Field-Marshal Count DIEBITSCH." WARSAW, JAN. 31.—One of our journals says that Prince Constantine is expected on the 6th February at Bialystock. Count Diehitsch reviewed on the 17th a division of the corps of Rosen at Bielsk, and on the 19th ,hree regiments of infantry at Bialystock.

Of Rye also large parcels have changed hands during the week, and prices have again risen. Our own consumers were also in the market.

Th e army would already have been very formidable, if he had re_ ceived the promised money from his allies. The Duchess o f i Berri, a long time since, wrote to Ferdinand, fhe would receive her as Regent of Henry V., King of France, as she wishes to be at Madrid in the month of May, to which it said the King has given his consent.

INHUMAN ABUSE IN LUNACY. The LORD CHANCELLOR on taking his seat said, in lunacy there were a great many existing abuses, and among others one that a most honest and honourable Mas ter had not been able conscientiously to withhold from communicating to the Gnat; and happy should the Court be to find that all the Masters followed this excellent ex ample. A clergyman 'had unfortunately become a lunatic. He had an estate yielding 6001. a year, was unmarried, in easy circumstances, and by birth, education, and station in life, in every respect a gentleman —a gentleman too fully entitled to enjoy all the comforts to be derived from his ample fortune. By the joint operation of the Com mittee of the person and the Committee of the estate, the unfortunate gentleman had been removed from a private and peaceable custody (where he had been and ought to ) to a lunatic di a s s t y a l n u t n p o art o o f f th t e h k e i 6 ng o d o r a , year, and a lodged i n n a have remained enjoying the advantages of privacy, seclusion, omony pauperd e oubt the most m i ndful and anxious Committees were uretaking the greatest care. An application h made to the Maste r f or an a ll owance o f 100 1 . dju st however, been t. and em a year to support the lunatic ;a this pauper asylum. The professional gentle man in town was a very respectable gentleman, whom his Lordship had seen ; he was however, however, a mere agent, had no au th or ity t o d o anything t i h n e st e r u u b c j t e io c n t s f , ro a m nd th d e id c n o o u t rt m . ate l r t ial in opinion upon l appeared materially differ to t'-e Master, and, at first, it pressed a little on the Court, hat the Master could not act without being put in motion such an opinion. At all events, the Masters had a by the parties. On reflection, his Lordship was not of without regular d u ty to perform, and the power under all circumstances so far to di.charge it as to convey immediate and full in formation to the Great Seal of any thing of importance that might occur b e f ore t h em. T hen the question was whether the Great Seal could or could not act without being put in motion ? Some had most thoughtlessly and a gainst all principle said the Great Seal could not judici ally put its power in motion without an application being ma de to it. Whatever might be said of the judicial actions of the Great Seal in other respects, this could not hold good as regards the Great Seal in Lunacy. The Chancellor merely acted in lunacy as the parens patri of the insane; and if he waited in such a case as this without interfering until an application was made by the parties, his interference would be delayed for ever, because it was clear that the two Committees having combined to act as they had done here, not only against a high duty, but a gainst every christian and humane feeling, they had each a motive for bringing the matter before the Court. Gene rally, the Committee of the estate was the heir-at-law, and the Committee of the person the next of kin of the lunatic, so that there was little difficulty in supposing it might be easy to find persons so situated, unless actuated by high honourable feelings, as to combine together to sacrifice the c omfort and happiness of a helpless lunatic to their own sordid views of interest. His Lordship's course appeared to him to be perfectly clear and easy here; it was to appoint (which he should forthwith do) a respectable solicitor, in whom he himself had confidence, to act in this matter, — to make all necessary inquiries without delay, then to move his Lordship in the matter, and to be paid his costs (as small an amount as could be incurred), out of the lunatic's estate. It was evident that nothing could be SO beneficial to the lunatic as to expend a few pounds of his money in this way. As to the powers of the Masters, they were to exercise those powers largely and liberally in such matters for the sake of justice, and where they found they reallycould not extend their powers to bring about thejestice they saw ought to be admini stered, they were to apprise his Lordship instanter of their situation. The SOLICITOR •GENERAL suggested the farther pro priety of his Lordship's ordering the Committees to appear personally before him, and bring into Court all the pro ceeding's that had taken place in the lunacy. His LORDSHIP had at firt.t felt inclined to go this length, but as his information as yet rested in a certain degree on surmise, he should be content with doing what he had stated he should do, until the necessary inquiries were made. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, at any rate, hoped his Lord ship would reserve the consideration of the costs. His Lc/trim-up observed, that if the information was at all correct that he had received, the Committees might rest most perfectly satisfied they should not have one farthing of costs. A similar abuse had been committed in another matter, but not to so flagrant an extent as in the present instance. THE FUNDS. We hear that policies were opened at Lloyd's yesterday, o' er . ing five guineas to receive 1001. if war was declared between Eng. land and France in two months. The Dutch Mail arrived this morning brings the Dutch Funds ' considerably lower; also the Russian Bonds. Consols, which left off yesterday at 80 1 ,4 14 for the Account, opened at the same price, and continue steady. The express from Paris brings the Five per Cents. per cent. higher 60f. 70c. _ _ HALF-PAST ONE, A report prevails that letters have been received from Ri gs this morning, stating that a conspiracy has been detected in the Russian army, and that two hundred officers have been dis missed the service.

WOODMAN V. ROSTOCK AND OTHERS. His LORDSHIP said this was a motion that had been ar- gued before him sometime ago, and was not finally dis posed of, on account of a question arising respecting the propriety of the conduct of Mr. Bostock, a professional gentleman. The affidavits were very long, otherwise it should not have remained over so long. After reading through the whole of those affidavits, and giving Mr. B.'s conduct every possible attention, the Court was so satisfied with the purity of that conduct, that his Lordship should not only not saddle Mr. B. with costs, but should order him to have his costs. NOISE IN THE HALL. As the SOLICITOR-GENERAL was moving, His LORDSHIP, hearing considerable noise in the Hall, called out silence. The call not being attended to, his Lordship in a few seconds afterwards stated—" I shall clear the Hall without the slightest scruple, whatever in convenience may arise from my doing so, unless silence is kept. The noise is now greater than when I first spoke." In a few seconds afterwards— The Loan CHA NC eLLOß—Officer--officer, dear the Ha 1. Persons treat this place much more as if it were a coffee-house, than any place else, where they were to nieet to talk together. In a few further seconds— The LORD CHANCELLOR--NOW, again, there's more noise than there was at first. Officer? Where's the court-keeper ? Clear that Hall. In half an hour subsequently— The LORD CHANCELLOR—Stop, Mr. Wray, (who was then addressing the Court,) I really cannot hear what you are saying from the noise there is. I desire that the Hall may be cleared instantly. Clear it of every person except of the Gentlemen of the Bar, The officers now proceeded in good ea' rest to obey this order of Court, and marched out every individual, sans ceremonie, at the lower part and middle of the Hall, who had not the good fortune to be protected unda- the shield of a gown and wig. As they approached the benches of the bar to clear out in the same way, The LORD CHANCELLOR said—No, you may allow professional gentlemen to remain who are near to this part, because they have not been engaged in making the noise. All this had certainly the effect of producing silence. The LORD CHANCELLOR then said—Now this is the first time since I came int* this Court at which there has been any thing like the usual silence—the decent sort of silence—which prevails in every Court of Justice into which it has been my lot to enter, and I desire that the Court-keeper here will take due care to continue to keep this degree of silence. The public have a right undoubtedly to enter into a Court of Justice on the condition, and on the condition only, that they do not interrupt the public business:—if they think proper to enter this Court on that condition, This was an action brought to recover the sum of 22/. 10s. for a dozen chairs, supplied by the plaintiff t , ) he defendant. Two witnesses were called, who proved that the price charged was fair and reasonable, whilst for the defendant about ten or twelve witnesses deposed that the price was very exorbitant, and that they were not made according to pattern. The parties are both cabinet makers. Lord TENTERDEN was about to sum up the conflicting evidence adduced, when the Jury intimated that they were agreed, and immediately returned a verdict for the plain tiff for the amount claimed. The above case occupied the time of the Court from its sitting until nearly one o'clock. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. The Court was exceedingly crowded this morning, it being expected that the case of Calcraft v. Lord Harbo rough would have come on. This action is brought to recover compensation in damages for criminal conversa 'ion with the plaintiff's wife (late Mi , s Love, of Drury lane). It is not, however, likely to be tried to-day, as there is an action relating to a bankruptcy, which in all probability will occupy the time of the Court until its rising. Willis, Bart. v. Bernard, Bart. This is an ac tion of crim. con., and specially fixed for trial to-morrow morning. In the case of Bland v. Duffield, which was an action of libel, the parties have come to an arrange ment, and the action is settled. 7 welcome are they ; but tifiless they do, the Judge and pro fessional gentlemen only,inust be admitted, and the busi ness left for them to transact. In about a quarter of ar!.-ho lir a number of professional and other persons having assembled at the hall door (from the admission being stopped) and surprised at such ex clusion, one of them sent an officer to- inquire of his Lordship whether be meant that solicinrs were to be ad mitted or not ? His LORDSHIP instantly said—Oh, don't exclude soli cit irs—don't exclude professional gentlemen ; but the pt °- cessions! gentlemen who wish either to come in, or to re main here must keep quiet—if they desire to talk, they must retire out of the hall to do so. The usual business was now proceeded in Withcut fur ther interruption until we left. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. BANKS V. MULLETT. COURT CIRCULAR. The Lord Chamberlain, accompanied by Mr. MAsrr, went to the Italian Opera-house on Wednesday, and selected a box for the QUEEN during the present season. The Duke of CUMBERLAND has engaged the box which his. MAJESTY' occupied the last season, at the Italian Opera-house, for the present year. A Cabinet Council was held at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, at the Foreign-office, which was attended by the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, Earl GREY, Lord DURHAM, Viscount MELBOURNE, Viscount PALMERSTON, Viscount GODERICIf, Viscount ALTIIORP, the Earl of CARLISLE, and Lord HOLLAND. The LORD CHANCELLOR and the Right lion. CHAS. GRANT joirtd their colleagues about four o'clock. The Council broke up at five o'clock. A numert.us deputation of Noblemen and Gentlemen interested in the extensive collieries in the north of Eng land, headed by the Marquis of LONDONDERRY and Lord WHARNCLIFFE, had a conference with Eat I GREY and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. Mr. BURGE, the newly appointed Agent for Jamaica, had a long interview with Viscount GODERICII yesterday at the Colonial-office. Despatches were sent off from the Colonial-office on Wednesday evening for Lord AYLMER, the Governor of Lower Canada. BRIGHTON, FEB. 10. Their MAJESTIES, with the Duchess of CUMBERLAND, drove out yesterday morning in a carriage and four, with outriders, to the Dyke ; the young Princes, accompanied by their tutors, walked in the same direction. A numerous suite from the Palace, viz , Lord and Lady ERROL, Mrs. Fox, and Sir ANDREW BARNARD, were on horseback on the Downs ; the weather was unusually fine. His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX drove out yes terday, in a close carriage, on the West Cliff, as far as Hove. His Royal Highness is now completely recovered from his late indisposition. The Princess Lrevax, Duchess of LEEDS, Mr. Bf D DINGFIELD, and Lieut.• Colonel JONES, had the honour of dining at the Palace yesterday.

THE QUEEN'S MAIDS OF HONOUR.-A vacancy has occurred in her MAJESTY'S household by the marriage of Miss FANNY SNEYD, one of the six young unmarried ladies who are alternately in waiting on their Royal Mistress.

We believe we may confidently assure our readers that do one is more chagrined at the turn which French policy has taken, respecting the affairs of Bel gium, than Prince TALLEYRAND, and that, under a sense of the personal disgrace which has been heaped npon him in the matter, he has written, not only to the Govern ment, but to the KING, to say that he can no longer hold office under them. The Prince, we are further informed, has determined to make this country that of his future re sidence.—Morning Advertiser.

O'CONNELL.--(EXTRACT OF A LETTER.)--LIVERPOOL, FEB. 1 . —The Dolphin Liver pool mail packet, which sailed from Kingstown on Monday evening, did not arrive until twelve o'clock on Tuesd iy, in consequence of the severe snow-storm. There was a vast concourse of people assembled on the pier, expecting Mr. O'CONNELL, who seemed much disappointed on learning that he was not on board, and crowded round the passengers to know the reason of his not coming. The town was full of orange and green flags, and a procession was formed ready to greet his arrival. A placard was instantly posted at the Exchange, stating that ' the Dolphin had arrived without Mr. O'CONNELL, and that be had been accom• panied to Kingstown by upwards of 100,000 people.'— There is no doubt but that he will be well received when he comes : but the Mayor will not grant the Town-hall for a meeting.—Cork Mercantile Chronicle. MELANCHOLY DEATH OF TIIE EDIN BURGH MAIL GUARD AND COACHMAN, LOST IN THE Smow.—(Further particulars, from the Dumfries Jour nal.)—lt is but too true. The fears expressed for the fate of the two unfortunate men hare been woefully veri fied. On Saturday 11I'DoNaLn, the guard of the mail, which should have left Edinburgh on Tuesday, but which was stopped by the roughness of the weather until Thurs• day, had contrived, with great danger and difficulty, sometimes on foot, to reach Tweedshaws. Here the land. lord of the inn and another individual ventured out to give him a convoy so far on his way to Moffat. After parting with him, and being on their way back, they thought of crossing over from the new to the old line of road, sup posing that the snow would he less deep there. Nirhen within half a mile of Tweedshaws, they came upon the body of GOODFELLOW, which was only partially covered with snow, and about 240 or 280 yards farther forward the body of M‘GEoaGE was discovered, his arm lying under his head, and with the tranquil appearance as if he had fallen peacefully asleep.
