the acquisition of political knowledge ; It had also much of the coarse, unpolished vituperation which adds a zest to the flavour of tobacco and punch in the oratorical schools of the Crown and Anchor. Man has been oftentimes recommended to draw lessons of experience from the animal creation, and it may be that the example of " the rats leaving a sinking ship" has not been lost upon the Member for Westminster. He foresees that good taste and argumentation will soon be abandoned ; so he gives his tongue a little practice in the arts necessary fur eminence in the next Parliament, and sits down with Cicero in his heart and Cobbett on his lips. But Lord Althorp's recommendation to silence was not, we believe, lest gentlemen should express themselves badly, but lest they should express themselves at all. They were "to look daggers, but speak none." This reminds us of an original whom we once saw. " When I am dressed," said he, " in my best pantaloons and black coat I am fit company for any man ; but when I open my mouth it's all over with me." We respectfully hint the same to various individuals of his Majesty's Government.—Morn ing Post. The questions put to M i n isters last ni g ht by Sir R. Vyvyan and Mr. Croker led to explanations which leave no doubt as to the course pursued by Holland with re spect to the armistice between that Power and the new kingdom of Belgium. The questions were, "whether Government had received any notification that the armis tice was broken, and whether the communication had been made by the Dutch Government itself, or by our own Minister, Sir Charles Bagot? " It was stated, in answer, that the armistice was broken, and that the know ledge of the tact was communicated to our Ministers by Sir Charles Bigot, and not by the Dutch Go vernment. The Chancellor of the Exchequer added— It was with the greatest possible surprise his Majesty's Government had received the statement from our Am bassador, Sir Charles Bagot, of the rupture of the armis tice by the orders of the King of Holland. The more so, because at that moment an Ambassador from that kingdom had reached this country for the purpose of ne gotiating here on the subjects in controversy between that King and Belgium. The Minister of Holland had even had an ioterview on the subject of that negotiation with the Noble Lord, the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, during which no disclosure took place as to the order of the Dutch Government." So much fur the fair dealing of our ancient Ally the King of Holland. He determines to break the armistice, and declines to send us any intelli gence upon the subject. He sends us an Ambassador in deed, but an Ambassador without an embassy —or, what is still worse, an Ambassador with a mock embassy, cal culated to mislead this Government by giving it a false impression of the relations subsisting between the two countries. We do not profess to be sufficient adepts in the diplomatic art to understand what rational purpose it could serve to conceal for a few hours or a few days, if it were practicable, an occurrence which must so soon be known all over Europe. It would be easy to imagine eir cumstences under which temporary concealment might serve a purpose, but they are not the circumstances which exist at present between Holland and this country. As the case stands, the trick appears inexplicable—inexpli cable in every point of view, except as a comment upon the duplicity and folly of the Power with which it originated. War between Holland and Belgium may now be considered as renewed, and war, once kindled, is as infectious as the plague or the cholera. If the struggle were to be confined to Holland and Belgium alone, we should have little doubt as to the result. The Belgians have rehearsed the drama of victory too recently, and too well, to lie put out of their parts by a set of Dutch mountebanks. The Belgians, who could beat them when they stood alone, unrecognised, and discouraged, will not submit to be beaten by them now that they are recognised, foetered, and protected by England and France. But there is little likelihood that the Dutch and Belgians will be left to settle the dispute themselves. The last accounts inform us that France is already on the march, and our own Government wcs occupied yesterday in discussions respecting the subject of which there can be but little hesitation. War, therefore—unless the decisive co-ope ration of England and France should avert it—war will, once more spread its horrors over the face of the civilised world; What renders the prospect more awful is the im probability that the King of Holland, or any man in his senses, would act as he is acting, if it was not for some secret understanding with other Powers. The suspense which hangs over the fate of Poland would seem to come in aid of this opinion. But let those Governments (if there be any such) who secretly feed the flames of war, look to the consequences upon their own stability. If a general European war should arise again, despotism can never come conqueror out of such a field in the present disposition of Europe. Let those who provoke such an e xperiment look to it. The whole Continent—the whole world, Lae been kept iu a state of excitement by the mur derous perseverance of Russia against the Poles. That contest has engendered feelings amongst the people of Europe which the despots will find working nearer home than they imagine. It is one thing to plan the game, and another to play it. They may intend great changes, all of them favourable to their own views; but when the change comes it may find them in very different circumstances from those who regulate its operations. A few slays will determine whether the decisive step taken by France, and likely to be countenanced, if not followed up, by England, will have the effect of preserving peace. If not, the world must prepare for one of the most eventful wars (in the true meaning of the expression) of which history has left us any record.—Morobig Herald. In our comments upon the policy of the King of the French, the Courier says, that we have not made suffi cient allowance for the difficulties of his situation. We believe most of the difficulties in which he is now in volved are of his own creating, His policy has been crooked, temporising, and weak ; and who can be surprised that its results are vexation and embarrass ment? He has taken great pains indeed to obtain that flashy popularity which is equally ostentatious and evanescent, hut he has ma le little or no exertion to secure the steady, enlightened confidence of the country. Are proofs demanded ?—here they are. He Las treated the people of Paris to abundance of show and spectacle; but he baa not given the French na, tion those in-titutions which he promised, and which their political condition absolutely require. It is true the inhabitants of Paris are fend of speeteele and pa geantry ; but they were treated to a great deal of both tinder the old regime, and they were not satisfied. They wanted something more. They were not conttnt, like the degenerate Roman populace of the falling empire, with the paueln et circenses of the Imperial bounty. Having achieved a revolution, under circumstances which reflect equal lustre on their bravery and moderation, are they to be led back to the crib of a master, tike certain unreflect ing animals that are pleased with bondage, if his trappings be gay and gilded ? If the French character is charge able with frivolity, is it the put of a wise ruler to make the people still more frivolous, by perpetually en deavouring to govern them through tho senses, in stead of addressing himself to their understand ings ? Is it worthy of a King to lay aside the sober cares of State to distinguish himself as chief show man of a nation ? The flags of Ulm should have been left to the theatres. It ws.s as bad taste as it was bad judgment to disinter those memories of the humiliation of Laistria, after the French Government had allowed, in violation al, their owe solemn pledge, the Austrian, armies to trample on the independent states of Italy, and crush, on the soil of ancient freedom, the prinriple which had given to France a triumph, and to Louis Philip a throne. We said the King of the French laid aside the soberr cares of Govern. merit ; and, we may : s old that e find the utmost dexterity in political Intrigue will prove but a pees substitute fur the eaercise statesman-like talent and kingly wisdom. His fugitive Administrations, which " come like shadows, so depart," prove that his political principles have not the character of stability. One wise and substantial labour of Govern ment would have done more for the consolidation of his power and the discomfiture of the enemies of his dynasty than all the refined intricacy of courtly manoeuvre which has distinguished his reign. We mean giving the French people, instead of a mock reform, a system of representa tion adequate to the wants, and worthy of the grandeur and resources of the country. What, too, can be said of the crusade which the law officers of the King of the French have carried on against the Press, and against all freedom of political opinions, ever s:nse his accession to the throne? Have not juries marked their sense of this unnatural crusade on the past of a Citi zen King by invariably returning verdicts of act uiltal? Has not the Kiug of the French b een all g more a f ra id of incurring the displeasure of the despots - of the Continent than of disappointing the hopes of his own subjects ? It is said that his maxim is " Peace at any price;" but peace at the price of the interests or the honour of a nation ii not what a wise statesman covets. The Government that avows a s e ced e sear, of war can taking refuge uuder te " aed shield of cowardice" long continue at peace. The King at* the French would do better to is re less alarm about foreign war, and to he more afraid of civil commotion. There can be no doubt the reYel.kitiop in Poland arrested the march of nt bad prooi of Oitasian legions ,uporr revolu. tionized France. Tlid Fret` ~a 4 over nine this ; yeti it left the Poles to their fate. If they have not, aftei's4safts , six menthe' conflict with thOreq,,intic enemy, been utterly crushed, they owe no thanks to France. A timid policy is sometimes the very reverse of a prudent one. Timidity caused the Government of Louis Philip to abandon the Poles ; it has yet to be shown tLat this was prudence. Since writing the above we have re ceived, through our French express, intelligence of the King havhag ordered the immediate march of a French army to the support of King Leopold in Belgium. We have heard before of warlike demonstrations and empty boasts on the part of the French Court, but it must be for that Court to show whether there be, upon this occasion, such an honesty and earnestness as will be received in amende for the inglorious tardiness with which the King of the Barricades has hitherto identified himself with the march of freer institutions. We must be still sceptical till we hear again from Belgium.—Morning Herald. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (From the Times.) The King of France received intelligence late on Wed nesday night that on Thursday evening (the 4th August) at half-past nine o'clock, the King of Holland intended to recommence hostilities against Belgium. Early on Thursday morning a special courier reached the French Government with an autograph letter from King Leopold, announcing, it is said, the declaration of war on the part of Holland, and claiming from France the assistance of an army, to maintain the independence and neutrality which was promised to Belgium by the Great Powers. At nine o'clock on the same morning the King held a Council at tire Palais Royal, when all the Ministers of M. Casimir Pericr's administration attended, including the President himself, and determined to remain in office under the present emergency, until the debate upon the address in the Chamber of Deputies. It was also resolved that General Girard, at the head of 50,000 French troops, should immediately march to the aid of the King of Belgium. This decision was transmitted on Thursday to the mili tary garrisons in the direction of the northern frontier by the Minister of War, and it was expected that before sun set on Thursday this army would be in actual advance upon Belgium. The field equipage of Gen. Girard, when our private correspondent wrote, was leaving Paris, and the General was to follow on the next morning. The French funds suffered a still further decline on Thursday, from the apprehension that Holland is acting by the instigation of Prussia and Russia. It was singular, that while mobs were bullying the King and the Ministers under the windows of the Palais Royal, late on Wednesday night, as not interfering against despots, the Council were then actually determining upo❑ taking this step in behalf of Belgium. The following is the official announcement of the Mo niteur, which was published in a second edition, late on Thursday. It was, at the same time, sent to the Directors of the Exchange, by the Minister of Finance, where it was at once surrounded by crowds of commercial men, amongst whom it caused the greatest agitation : " The King of Holland has denounced the armistice, and announced the resumption of hostilities against the Belgians, this evening at half-past nine o'clock. " This morning at five o'clock, the King has received a letter from the King of the Belgians, who demands of him the aid of a French army. " The King having recognised the independence of the kingdom of Belgium, and her neutrality, in concert with England, Austria, Prussia, and Russia, and the circum stances being urgent, complies with the demand of the King of the Belgians ; and will cause the engagements to be respected, which have been taken in common accord with the Great Powers. " Marshal Girard commands the army of the north, which is marching to the aid of Belgium, whose neutrality and independence are to be main'ained. " The peace of Europe, disturbed by the King of Hol land, shall be consolidated. " Under such circumstances, the Ministry remain; they will await the answer of the Chamber to the speech of , the Crown. _ ....., _._...._ " By order of his Excellency the Minister of Finances, the Commissary of the Exchange, (Signed) " BAUDESSON DE RICHEBOURG.

(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.) PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING. The state of this Government, and indeed generally of public affairs here during the week, continues to remain far from being satisfactory. As yet there is no adminis tration re-organized; all business and general credit are at a stand ; and as the war between Holland and Belgium is imminent, if not already commenced, the popular cry of armed interference in France will become too powerful to he resisted by any Administration now likely to he formed, and a general war will probably be the fatal result. At eight o'clock yesterday evening, while a council was sitting at the Palais Royal, a large body of young men, most of them well-dressed, rushed into the court, under the windows of the King, and vociferated " Long live Poland," "Down with the Ministers." The National Guards and companies of the line on duty marched out, the. gates were shut and the crowd was gra dually pressed by the soldiers into the side walks, and out through the small passages. While this operation was performing, bands of people, mostly in working dresses, were shouting the Parisienne arid ilarseiiloise ; but the young men who were well dressed, and who seemed to be chiefly students, confined their bawling to cries in favour of Poland, and against the Ministry. I understood some seditious cries were min gled in the vociferations, but I heard none, and the people every where yielded to the pressure of the soldiers, which was unaceo t npanied by irritation or violence. Shortly Xfter the Pal is Royal was cleared, very strong picquets, in fact whole regiments of cavalry, paraded the adjoining streets, the quays, and the neighbourhood of the Ekcharge ; they sometimes drove at a gentle trot, but the crowds every where yielded without violence. In the Rue Vivienne, where there was a good retreat at hand, through the passages, I observed several well-dressed young men form for a moment in the middle of the street, and call on the people to maintain their ground, exclaimiog, ' 5 Are we to he trampled upan for a manifestation of opinion, and that in favour of the lizroic Poles ?" The people on the pathways londly shouted " Long live Poland ;" 2.nd from what I saw of the nods and assenting gestures of the cavalry and infantry as they moved through the crowd, it was easy to believe that the popular cry was responded to by the military. French crowds always break into small eddying circles, it WO curious to listen to the extravagant gossip in which spokesmen indulged. 1 heard one of them in sisting that France had now 1,p9,000 men under arms, and ought to save Poland ; another said th3t the King was quite r.:2a,i?y to go to war, but had not money ; a third exclaimed it was now too late, for the Russians had taken )Ciawsiw, but that Belgium fight still be saved; and these crowds con4nued running and shooting, and the heavy patrcis I).4Pginl;! . upon their skirts until midnight, when all was peace in the streets. You will see an ominou4 paragraph in this day's Jour ' teal dfs Debats, announcing, even to the hour this even ing, when hostilities are to commence between Holland and Belgium, arc; that France stands pledged to march upca the Rhenish frontier, I understand that late yester day evehirig a courier from the Hag4e was the bearer of an intention on the part of the King of Holland to resume hostilities Wince; and that a Belgic officer this morning likewise arrived from King Leopold, claiming from France the protection which she owed Belgium at such a crisis. Leopold has likewise sent a demand in the same tone to crest Britain ; but of this latter fact yo 9 are nearer cor rect sauces of information than I am. The insmat the Government received this intelligence last night, a Council was called, when Marshal S lace oult de clared, that the War-office es. - ;;;; ,1, in ten days, p fifty thousand ateetive troops on the Belgic fmtier. A dis cussion, I am informe,d ; arose as to the nomination of the officer command. Marsha: Clauxel way talked of, but General .Girard was decided upon. He is an active, able, and intrepid man. Same o f the most enterpriaing of the French Generals are to accompany him. The orders to prepare for BlAdd,en mov,emegt e.re transmitted this day by telegraph. _ _ The French Government are said to have Wei ap prised of the g;:istexice for nearly three months of a dark and treacherous consp:racy, in which Holland is suppprted and instigated by Prussia and Russia, to embroil France and gn g land in the adjustment of the affairs of 1301!itilll. huow that) a; very early hour this niorning, tiara. Fogel, the Dutch Minister, was in close conclave with General Sebastiani, and that the lattei, after the interview. went direct to the Palace. I also learn, that, for several days, Marshal Soult has been very active in pointing the march of French troops towards the line of the frontier. Indeed, one French regiment is said to have actually passed it, but through mistake. The incessant communications of late between the King and General Belliard, and between ' the Minister for Foreign Affairs and the Dutch Envoy, would certainly indicate the approach of some movement of which, if the Debate be well-informed, the explosion is at hand. At ten o'clock this morning the King held another Council at the Patois Royal, upon the subject of the forma tion of a new Ministry, which sat for nearly three hours. This Council was attended by the whole of the Ministers of the Casimir Perier Administration. Count Mole was also there. Nothing definitive was, however, arranged, as, owing to the urgency of the despatches of last night from Brussels, it was unanimously determined by the Ministry to retain office until after the address, which will probably be discussed on Saturday. A second edition of the Moniteur is expected every moment, with the official notification of the direct inter ference of France upon the requisition of King Leopold. A communication to the same effect was sent at half-past one o'clock this day to the Exchange : it was the first official notification given during the present Ministry to the commercial interests, of a political event so vitally affecting them. The publication of this intelligence necessarily de pressed the funds still more, the commercial impression being, that the King of Holland would never provoke this contest were lie not secretly backed by Prussia and Russia. The effect upon the people of the " movement" by this news is, of course, enthusiastic. They look upon it as the reaction of public opinion to restore the French inte rests in Belgium, and to cause (Heaven send it be not too late !) a diversion in favour of glorious Poland. All eyes are here turned upon the movement of Sir Edward Codrington's fleet, and the step to be taken by the British Cabinet upon this intimation of the march of the French army into Belgium. General Girard's field equipage will leave Paris this night. He himself will set out to-morrow. Generals Excelmans, Lamarque, and several other dis tinguished officers, have already since morning made a tender of their services. G)uriers have also been despatched (principally, I learn, by private and patriotic individuals), in the hope of reach ing Warsaw, with the intelligence of this diversion in favour of Poland. Y. The Gazette d'Etat of Berlin, of the 29th, has arrived, but without any decisive news front the seat of war in Poland. The cholera morbus is, however, making fright ful ravages ; it is increasing at Warsaw, WWI, Tilsit, Konigsberg, Posen, Grandenz, and Elbing. We have since received a Post-office express, containing the official intelligence sent by our correspondent, and some extracts from the journals which we subjoin (From the Moxiteur of Thursday.) " CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, AUG. 3. " Count DUCHATEL, President. " After examining the validity of the election of some members, the Chamber proceeded to ballot for its secre taries. The number of voters being 350, the absolute majority was 168. M. Ganneron having obtained 214 votes, and M. Cunin Gredaine 210, were declared secre taries. The four Deputies who, next to them, obtained the greatest number of votes (the highest 146) were then placed on the ballot, for the choice of the two other secre taries. Messrs. Felix Real and Boissy d'Anglas having obtained a majority, were declared secretaries. " The constitution of the Chamber being now complete, the President said, Gentlemen,—The Chamber is con stituted. I have been called, by my age, to the honour of the Presidency during its organization ; it has encouraged my efforts, with extreme kindness. I beg it to accept the expression of my lively and respectful gratitude. On quitting the chair where the President you have chosen is going to take his place, and who is so worthy of your choice, allow me, gentlemen, to take advantage of this mo ment, which perhaps I shall not have another opportunity of doing, to say a few words up.in the great interests of the country. I shall be the organ of the citizens, to whom I owe the honour of sitting in this Chamber; I shall evi dently be also the organ of all France. France, gentlemen, has a charter anti a constitutional Monarchy, and owes them to the immortal days of July. It is resolved to pre serve them. It holds among the great Powers the rank which belongs to it,—it means nut to descend from it. A citizen King is at its head,—it will support him in the exercise of the power which it has given h:m. It is jealous of its liberties,—it will suffer nothing that can weaken or impair them. It expects from its Deputies a good use of their powers, and that no party spirit shall prevail with them. Political tronbles have been fomented in its bosom. Attempts have been made against its constitu tion of 1830. It has been indignant at these criminal enterprises. It is to these attempts, as well as to uncer tainty of our relations with foreign Powers that we must attribute the afflicting state of agriculture, commerce, and manufactures, which cannot flourish except in security and repose; for what other causes could have impaired confi dence and produced so much suffering in a country like France, in which all sources of prosperity abound? The remedy, gentlemen, is in the hands of Government and in yours. Let France be shown without. to its friends and its enemies as it is, and let its interests be taken care of, Within let a firm and just administration direct its affairs, let our institutions be completed, let the public burdens be diminished, then we shall see confidence revive, and agri culture, commerce, and manufacture, will resume all their energy.--(Marks of approbation.) I invite M. Girod (de l'Aine) to take the chair, and the Secretaries who have just been named to take their places at the bureau. "111. Girod (de l'Ain) takes the chair, and embraces the temporary President. " The Secretaries having taken their places, and th e President seated himself in the chair, profound silence en sued. " The President.—My dear colleagues, I cannot express to you, as I feel it, my profound gratitude for the honour to which I had not the presumption to pretend. Too des titute of the eminent qualities which ought to distinguish your Presidents, I will at least offer the assurance of a sincere and firm impartiality, an unalterable d e termination to fulfil, to the best of my ability, the duties imposed on me. But it is from you especi illy, my dear colleagues, that I must expect the support which I so much need._. Deeply sensible of what the high mission that France has confided to you requires, you will prepare with me to ac complish them, strictly observing your reglement, that law which you have made for yourselves, and which will direct all your acts. You will maintain in your deliberations the order, dignity, and composure which will render them more impressive and more efficacious. Permit me to hop e also that you will continue to me a kindness which I shall always endeavour to merit.—(General approbation.) " The President then proposed thanks to the temporary President and Secretaries, which was unanimously as. stinted to. " The order of the day was the ballot for the choice r:r questors. men, the first duty of the id-G M. Taillandier tne Chamber at this moment is to appoint the Committee for drawing up the address.—(Several voices, "fhis is not the Order of the Day.') I see no other mean to enlighten the Government respecting the political system which the majority of this Chamber desires to see adopted. The dis solution, or the bare modification of the Cabinet, renders the nomination of a new Cabinet indispensable.—(Lively remonstrances. Numerous voices, " The Order of the Day on the left, Hear, bear.') "M. Taillandier,--It must he composed of men who can go on with us. Provisional Ministers would be a de plorable thing, and injurious to the interests of the country. —(New interruption.) France, besides, expects with much . - . anxiety the attitude which the Chamber is going to assume in the serious circumstances in which we are placed. Now the address will be calculated to make people's minds easy, and to show that we are all agree when the question is the dignity of our country and the consolation of social order, owing to the glorious Revolution of July. The address, I take pleasure in supposing, will not turn upon a cere monious phraseology.—(Lively expressions of disapproba tion.) The address, gentlemen, will announce clearly and precisely to France and to Europe, what are the political intentions with which we are animated. In this state of things, and considering that this is the twelfth day since the opening of the Session, without our having been able to make known, ex cept by uncertain results of ballots for the officers of the Chamber, what the majority of the Chamber may desire, I think there is no time to be lost, and that it is abso lutely necessary to depart, for this time at least, from the ordinary tract bequeathed to us by our predecessors. I can, besides, quote a precedent. In 1829, France was in a critical situation. The Chamber of Deputies pro ceeded, immediately after it was constituted, to the nomi nation Oa Committee to draw op the address, though this was not in the order of the day; and you know that it was then that the famous address of the 221 was prepared , " j,I. Rouillett de Fontaine—The most essential thing in a Chamber is to observe its regleni , nt. If our ❑ew col leagues bad taken the trouble of studying it, they would know that no change can be made in the order of the day. The Pornioatiou of “ Committee to draw up the address Is not in the order of the day. However, it Is a subject sufficiently important . to be announced before hand, that all the Members may attend ; there must be no surprise among us.—(Supported.) " M Tdillandier then proposed that the appointment of the Committee should be put in the order of the day for to-morrow, which was agreed to. " The Chamber then proceeded to the nomination of questors. Messrs. Delaborde and Dumeylet were chosen." (The French papers contain no more recent news from Poland, nor any thing of particular interest.) (From the Aforning Herald, Private Correspondent.) PARIS, AUG. 4. At half-past nine o'clock this night hostilities, it appears, are to recommence between the Dutch and the Belgians. The French troops have orders to march immediately to the support of the latter. Such is the amount of a la conic postscript, and (dated half-past eleven last night) published in the Journal des Debats of this day, and which has already (nine o'clock, a•m.) thrown all persons into a ferment. Recollecting the series of unworthy tricks practised on the public mind within the last ten or twelve days, it is impossible, without an abandonment of all reasonable cau tion, to credit all at once the obvious purport of this demi official postscript of the Journal des Debuts. Ere I close this letter the truth will become known. In the interim I shall occupy myself and you with other, but still not unimportant, matters. Up to this moment no Ministry has been chosen. Is the resignation of M. Perier real Does he think that the Representatives of the Nation, one half of whom lately arrayed themselves against him, shall address him earnestly, praying that he may rebuckle official harness on his back ? If I could bring home to M. Perier participa tion in the guilt of having so shamefully abused public cre dulity in any of the instances above alluded to, I would believe that this announcement of immediate war, which must have been long foreseen by that Minister, was con nected with some secret project of his own, but even his opponents bear testimony to M. Perier's frankne-s. It is impossible that he can have descended to such a stratagem. Hi• retirement is, therefore, real, bona fide irrevocable. Up to this moment, I repeat, no Ministry exists. Coun cils, at short intervals, occupied the entire of yesterday, but nothing was done : a result at which those who know in what manner the presence of the King acts upon the deliberative faculties of his Counsellors will feel no sur prise. His Majesty naturally looks for a Cabinet, the sentiments of which will be in perfect correspondence with his own, and will have no other, so long as it is pos sible to avoid or evade it. His Majesty's leading principle is said to be, whether true or falsely I cannot say, " /a pair, coute qui coute." Now, although there are in the Cham ber more than a sufficiency of individuals who concur in this, or would concur in any other sentiments of the King, sympathy, pliancy, acquiescence, do not comprise the re quisite qualities for a Minister. To secure men competent to business, and yet with opinions in unison with his own, has been found impossible on this occasion by Louis Philippe. Overtures were therefore made to the cote gauche, but coupled with provisions and stipulations which that party rejected, convinced, whether correctly or incor rectly, that at no distant day the King must throw himself into their arms. From a circumstance just now communicated to me I am inclined to believe that the composition of the new Ministry will be left to Marshal Soult. M. D'Arago, who was associated with him by the King to arrange that matter, leaves town this day for Switzerland. A" rather liberal' Ministry will, probably, be the work of the Marshal, and, with a war to occupy the public mind, such a Government might get on ; but without .a war no species of Ministry, other than decided, could maintain itself during a month. No decided Ministry will be at this instant appointed, and, coupled with the extravagancies of a Chamber which, on the same day, elects Dupont de l'Eure and rejects Lafitte, which chooses Alexander MN horde, Real, and Portalis, almost in the same breath with Dupin (the elder), Delessert, and Cunin-Gridaine, pro- mises a new succession of weaknesses, inconsistencies, and tumults. A war would, however, obviate these. If a war took place it is more than probable that the French will in the outset get soundly threshed by the Prussians and Austi ians. I mention these two, assuming, with all the uninitiated portion of the world, that not withstanding that they were parties to the protocols, Prussia and Austria will make common cause with France. I anticipate the defeat of the French early in any cam paign that may occur, from the superior state of readi ness of the Prussian and Austrian armies for the &Id ; but of the ultimate triumphs of the French there can be little doubt. This 1 would predict from the spirit that pervades France—(mind, I do not call Paris France, on which subject more in my next)—and from the insurrec tions that would immediately occur in the ci-devant Rlien . ish provinces, and in Italy from north to south. Is France herself secure from similar revolts 1 I think not. In the south and in the west the Carlists have worked and are working, with effect upon the people. It would not, perhaps, be overcharged, were I to estimate the number of dupes to the intrigues of the Carlists, who would fly to arms under the banners of Henry the Fifth, on the entrance of a foreign army into France, at 100,000 men. They have, however, among them only about 20,000 muskets, a great portion of which are in Brittany, With these, particularly as they are of English manufac ture, and differ in the bore from French arms, they could do little, but, were it not for the establishment of the Garde Nationale, they might nevertheless embarrass the Government. They would, however, be put down, and, from the spirit that is abroad, I think, extirpated by the National Guards of their own and the surrounding de partments. In the mean while it would be quite possible for the Prussians to march to Paris; but never to return. These are the prospects of France, collected from the opinions of men well informed on every branch of the subject. We have had some scenes in Paris on each of the last two evenings. Crowds collected round the Pavilions i❑ the Garden of the Palais Royal, at which the Journals are lent, in order to ascertain the latest news, and then to re solve themselves, as on all former occasions of excitement, into clubs or groups. Poland—devoted Poland—was the theme of all. " Our Ministers have betrayed the Poles— betrayed us !" " Poland for ever !" " War with Russia !" " Death to the Russians !" " Down with the Ministers !" " To the Palais !" were the commentaries and the excla mations of the readers, and they ran down the garden, and into the court-yard of the Palais, to entertain the King with a repetition of them. On each occasion they were with some difficulty expelled the court-yard, and not without blows that will lead to mischief. Last night, shortly after ten o'clock, the garden itself was cleared, and the grilles closed. Thus ejected, the crowds formed in the Rues Montausier, Valois, Vivienne, and Neuve des Petits Champs, but were forced close to the walls at each side by charges of cavalry. The performance closed with the Marseillaise and the Parisienne chaunted :most in fernally. This business is not over. Ma(nFyrortnepotlrites itsa h f a e v s eb g ee er n des . C7a circulated, ttnbre s m ost f Friday. of which are groundless—for instance, it was asserted that overtures had been made to the Deputies of the extreme gauche. We think that such has not been the case. The extreme gauche would encounter in the Chamber still greater ob stacles than the present Administration ; besides, the most influential Deputies of that opinion, such as Messrs. Odil lon Barrot, and others, are said to have openly declared that they would accept the Government only on con dition of an immediate dissolution of the Chamber, be cause they consider it incompatible with their system. Could a coalition Administration succeed better with the Chamber ? We are assured this instant that several of our brave regiments have already crossed the frontier of Belgium. A newspaper mentioned, yesterday morning, that M. Casimir Perier was on the point of setting out for the wa ters of Aix-la-Chapelle, and added that he did not intend to assist at the discussion of the address. Such an insinu ation is devoid of truth ; we are'authorised to contradict it. (From the Journal des Debuts of Thursday.) We consider ourselves authorised to state that the French Government has taken measures to march to the assistance of the Belgians. The independence of Belgium is the work of France—. France will maintain it. (From the first edition of the Moniteur of Thursday.) The Ministers held a Cauncil, at the King's, last even ing, at nine o'clock. The new Cabinet is not yet formed, but shall be so be fore the discussion of the Address of the Chamber of De puties, in answer to the Speech from the Crown. (From the Courier Francais of Thursday.) Yesterday passed in overtures and refusals. The 111i niiters met at the King's at eleven o'clock, and the Coun cil lasted till half-past three. No combination appeared possible ; it is asserted that M. Soult received at four o'clock the intimation not to take further troubl e about organizing a new Cabinet. About the same hour, the Duke of Orleans called on M. Perier, and had with him , long conversation. It appears that the object of the Prince's visit was to request of M. Perier not to relin qui-h the Ministry until he ascertained what would be the majority in the adoption of the Address. This step is to he followed by a manifesto of the speculators in the Funds. To-morrow a petition, signed by the principal LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 6, 1831. MARCH OF THE FRENCH ARMY ! Events of importance thicken on us—the die of war is cast—and a French army of fifty thousand men it now on its march to assist the King of the BELGIANS in repelling the invasion of the Dutch ! This is indeed important news, and must lead to results of great moment. It appears that on Thursday night intelligence had been received at Paris of the Dutch having broken the armistice, and commenced immediate hostilities, by the capture of some Belgian towns. Nearly at the same time an express arrived from King LEO MOLD, demanding the aid of a French army to preserve the neutrality of Belgium, and to repel the Dutch. The French KING immediately convoked a Council, at which M. PERIER and all the late Mi nistry attended. The result of their deliberations was the publication of an Extraordinary Edition of the Moniteur, in which the following appeared : " The KING having recognised the independence of the kingdom of Belgium and its neutrality, in concert with England, Austria, Prussia, and Russia, and the circumstances being urgent, accedes to the request of the King of the BELGIANS ; be will cause the engagements to be respected which have been entered into with common consent between the Great Powers. Marshal GERARD commands the army of the North, which marches to the aid of Belgium, whose neutrality and independence will be maintained, and the peace of Europe, disturbed by the King of HOLLAND, will be consolidated. Under such circumstances the Ministry remains ; it will wait for the answer of the Chambers to the Speech from the Throne." This decision of the French is at once prompt — bold—honourable--and in accordance with the often expressed feelings of the nation. But the question arises, what will be the consequence of this step ? We answer—W ar—with Prussia—war with Russia —and very probably war with Austria! At present this seems unavoidable from the appearance of things, for it is impossible to conceive that the perfidious King of HOLLAND, with all his obstinacy, would have been mad enough to precipitate a war without the secret encouragement of Prussia and Russia. But he will yet pay dearly for his temerity. As might have been expected, this important business produced a smart discussion in the House of Commons this day, for the interesting particu lars of which we have only time to refer to our re port of the debate. It will be seen that Lord PALMERSTON has received despatches this morning from our Ambassador at Paris, officially announcing what has taken place. His Lordship said that there was no previous engagement entered into between France and England for the march of a French army, simply because such a necessity could not be foreseen. The King of HOLLAND rushed into war without giving any previous notice to the Allies, blindly hoping thereby to gain great advantages by a surprise. But he will be sadly mis taken ! For full particulars of foreign news we refer to another part of The Sun. LEOPOLD has proceeded to join the army—and all was bustle and enthusiasm throughout Belgium. The Austrian Observer of the 24th of July has been received, and merely confirms the death of the Austrian Archduke RUDOLPH and General FRI moNT, with the accounts previously received of the progress of the cholera.

The Noble Earl's speech in support of this motion had as much to do with it as China with Belgium. It was a long, rambling, illogical tirade against the conduct of Government with respect to Portugal. As for the question of Terceira, it was dropped somewhere about the twelfth line and never afterwards alluded to. Whe ther this was done purposely, or was owing to the Noble Earl's lack of reasoning powers,we will not take on ourselves to say ; though defective, as no doubt, are his logical qualities, still we think that his factious hostility to Government was uppermost in his mind, and was therefore most probably the pro pelling motive for the display alluded to. The main object of the Noble Earl's speech was to prove that in permitting the French fleet to enter the Tagus and insist on reparation for injuries received from Dan MIGUEL, the English Government had been guilty of a scandalous breach of faith towards her oldest and most constant ally. By way of enforcing this point, the Noble Lord went into a long, prostig detail of the different treaties which had from time to time been drawn up be tween England and Portugal, and dwelt with marked emphasis on that particular one entered into be tween the two Governments during the ieign of EDWARD if a treaty, bearing date ne o five centuries since, and which has been modelle! and re-modelled at least fifty times since, an d which, moreover, was entered into between tW° legitimate and recognized Governments, was, at tO time of day, and under the very peculiar circtio stances of the case, to bind the English Governmen t t.) the cause of a usurper ! Had Don MIGUEL bee' even a legitimate Sovereign, the case .would ha t/I been a very doubtful one, but as it at presen t stands, there cannot be the shadow of a dotatt . What absurdity indeed to suppose that a•usurpet like DON MIGUEL is to infringe at will the law ° I nations, and then, when called on to make reparation for such flagrant injustice, to demand assistan ce from England by virtue of a treaty entered into with her Government in the reign of Epw4 o the Third ! The• Noble Earl was replied to wiib much spirit by Earl GREY, who vindicated the ay duct of Government, and exposed the factious fo°' fives of the Noble Mover. The motion was CO sequently withdrawn. The Reform Committee passed through schedul° D last night, with the exception of three town 9 14 for further discussion, and resume their labours to-Jay' SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAVY FROM LLOYD'S.

Last evening, at nine o'clock, the Ministers again met, and at the moment we are writing this article they are still assembled at the Palais Royal. M. Casimir Perier appears to lay as a condition, a sine qua non, that several of his colleagues shall immediately retire. A letter from Munich observes---" We could not yet discover why an agent of the Russian Ambassador at Munich was sent to Deux Punts. Prussian engineers are busily employed in laying out entrenchments near Metz kerk, a village within four leagues of the frontiers, on the road from Sierck to Treves." (From Gallynani's Messenger of Thursday.) According to letters from Madrid, of the 25th ult., the decree depriving Cadiz of its privilvges as a free port hap been suspended. It also states that the Spanish Govern ment has granted a sum of twelve millions of rials for th e relief of Don Miguel ; in addition to which the Princess de Beyra and the Infanta Maria Francisca have each ad vanced him one million of rials from their private funds.
