of the Marquis during the whole election, and that he never held out a single threat to at. i• voter.—(Cheers.) Mr. R. COLBORNE adhrted to the refusal of the Committee to receive the evidence of Mr. M'Causten, who had arrived after the case on both sides bad been doled. and when it was impossible to open it again. The pre sent motion had certainly been brought forward without any instruction from the Committee ; and he for one re s gretted that the Hon. Member (Mi. Gordon) had thought such a course necessary. It only revived a painful sub ject; and it was the misfortune of Irtisnd that eve, ything was there made a matter of party triumph. If he wets driven to a vote, he should, however, oppose the resolution,- as he thought it stronger than the case required. Mr. LEFROY said, the c ircumstances which had been proved before the Committee furnishes' sufficient grounds for adopting the resolution.—(Question, question.) Lard ALTHORP said that the resolution was so vague, making a general charge against the Irish Government, without fixing the blame upon any individual, that the House could not with justice assent to it.—(Hear, hear.) The lion. and Learned Gentleman himself, who spoke last,. was doubtful whether the interference of Baron Toy!' was altogether unauthorised, or was warranted by the Lord Li e utenant.s--(Hear.) If the House passed such a sweeping censure, it must be followed up by the dismissal of the whole Irish Government,although there was no di rect charge against any Member of it.—(Hear.) The ut most that had been proved by the ex-purte statement was, that the Marquis of Anglesea expressed a wish that the candidates favourable to Reform should be elected, and he allowed members of his household to make it known to his tradespeople and others, that he was desirous that they should vote for those candidstes. But when be found that they had carried their imprudence so far as appeared by the evidence, he immediately took care to correct the false 1 impression which they had made. Besides, it did not ap pear in any pat t of the evidence, that Baron Tuyil " made use of the Lord Lieutenant's name.—(Hear.) He hoped and trusted that the House would agree to the motion of his Right Hon. Friend, and give a direct negative to so unjustly vague a censure upon the whole Irish Govern ment.—( Hear, hear, and question ) Mr. HENRY BARING having expressed his opinion in the Committee that no special report ought to have been made, be could not then be prepared to support re solutions so much stronger than the report.—(Hear.) Mr. C. NV. WYNN said, that after the solemn deci sion to which a Committee had come, the House was called on to assert that no official influence had been un justly exercised.—(Hear, hear.) If they shout(' accede to such an assertion, and that in elections for the Re formed Parliament, a Chancellor of the Exchequer, as first Lord of the Treasury, should send round circulars calling upon all persons holding office to vote for the Go vernment candidate, on pain of dismissal, and should say to them that if they did not support the Government which paid them, they could not expect that it should support them ; then, by the precedent which the House was now called on to give, it would be said that there had been no abuse of official influence. A Mamma, whose name we could not learn, observed that he belonged to the Committee by which the special report w..s made, and that, considering that undue in fluence had tarn exercised, he had agreed to that report ; but not considering that so gross an infraction of the pri vileges of the House had been committed as the proposed resolutions imputed, he could not vote fir the severe cen sure which they involved. Sir G. WARRENDER would concur with Ministers in giving a direct negative to the resolutions. Mr. GORDON justified the course which he had por• soon, and made a brief reply to the arguments which had been urged against his motion. Mr. STANLEY explained. The cries of " Question, question." now became very loud. After a few winds from Mr. RUTHVEN, the House then divided-- - - - - For the motion Against it '2o7 Majority in favour of Ministers —l4l The further consideration in Committee of the Reform in Parliament Bill woe postponed to Wednesday (this day). The report of the Committee of Supply was brought up, and the resolutions agreed to. The other orders of the day were then disposed of.— Adjourned at Three o'clock. ROYAL ASSENT.

'Last night was a sad example of the delay, which, if nuch longer tolerated, may endanger the Bill ; and it is matter of great surprise to see Members who have supported the Bill and ssho profess themselves promoters of Reform, aiding Anti_ Reformers in defeating the Bill. We admit that the practices in Dublin were disgraceful as regarded the fabrication of votes, and we will admit that some of the official men in Dublin may, in 'heir zeal to support the Reform candidates, have transgressed in tS.eir canvass the strict rules of free elections; but when the sffbrts of the Anti-Reformers are taken into consideration, .and the almost unanimous call of the country to meet the appeal of the King, we are not at all surprised at the zeal and active exer. ions of every man who was friendly to Reform. We therefore inarvel greatly that Mr. Robert Gordon, the Chairman of the Se lect Committee that declared the two sitting Members for Dublin not duly elected, should, without instructions from the Com ,nittee, have brought forward any question last night to impede 'he progress of the Bill for an entire night, and to throw dissen lion into the ranks of the Reformers. We are informed that the Anti-Reformers were pleased beyond all measure at the course adopted by Mr. Gordon, and to a man they made ita party question, and voted against the Minister. We hope Mr. Gordon has derived all the satisfaction he expected from his motion; but we confess that the strongest Reformer might, to use Mr. O'Con. net's words, have been satisfied with attacking, the vulture, by proceeding with the Bill, instead of attempting to catch the fly. We trust that Ministers will now see that any longer trifling with the feelings of the country will not do, and that they will meet every day at twelve o'clock, and, if that will not do, at ten o'clock, until the Bill is carried. It is of no avail to say that Committees could not, in that case, sit; we say that the whole business of the country in the House of Commons is at a stand, and that nothing can or will be attended to until the Reform Bill -hall be passed ;—we therefore say, mess on the Bill, pass the Bill, and then transact the other business. After the two first resolutions of Government were agreed to by the House, the Attorney-General moved the following' resolu tion. We cannot but think that it would have been better at once to have moved the order of the day on Mr. Gordon's mo tion, and to have proceeded with the Reform Bill. The country would then have seen with whom the delay lay : " That the Law Officers of the Crown in Ireland be directed to take immediate measures for the purpose of li:urging to justice such persons as may have been guilty of bribing the voters'at the last election." . On which an amendment was proposed, to leave out the last words of the question, " guilty of bribing the voters at the last election," and to aaa, " concerned in these illegal and unconsti tutional practices;" and on the question tnat the words proposed to be left out, stand part of the question, the House divided : Ayes 224 for the Ministers.

E DENISON very properly requested the Hon. Mem ber to postpone, and founded on the reports and evidence of the last Dublin Election Committee, the House of Commons, notwithstanding it sat till three o'clock in the merning, broke up w=ithout making the slightest progress in the Reform 8111. The great paramount question was compelled to give way to an unimportant and uninteresting debate on one of those very nuisances, which it is its chief aim to abolish. We frankly tell Ministers thiS will never do. If they desire to be thought sincere by the country —we ourselves entertain no doubt of their sincerity— in. their endeavours to obtain Reform, they must ac t with far more energy and decision than they have lately done. They must put their shoulders to the wheel, and braCe themselves for the mighty task they hive . been called on to accomplish. There must be no shilly-shallying—no vacillation—no lukewarm ness. They must bear constantly in mind that the present Parliament was summoned but for one ob ject—the passing of the Reform Bill. That in comparison with this question, ail others sink into insignificance; and that whatever is suffered to hr terfere, even in the slightest degree, with its pro gress, is doing an injury to the cause, as well as in flicting a stigma bn those who support it. Men's minds just now are strangely agitated on the question. Distrust is beginning to take the place of confidence, even in the minds of some of the staunchest Reformers. They cannot but see that the measure progresses at a snail's pace : that every little insignificant matter is allowed to impede its advance; and that one of its leading principles has been broken in upon by the projected divisions of countiel. Even the number of hours allowed for its discussion during the week, though nominally, are not in reality, extended ; for what is gained on Saturday is lost on Monday, when other matters than those connected with Reform, occupy the attention of the House. We are sorry that Lord ALTHORP has not adhered to his original intention, announced in the early part of the session, of bringing on the Bill .punctually every evening at five o'clock. Had he persisted in this determination, it would now have past into the Lords; as it is, it is scarcely out of its ' . teens in the Conimons. Night after night, for a fort night. or three weeks past, has the time of the House been wasted in listening to the twaddle of Hon. Mem hers on matters of no earthly importance ; while the Reform Bill—to pass which, and nothing else, the pre sent Parliament was expressly returned—has been de layed till nine, ten, eleven, mad sometimes even twelve o'clock. If Ministers expect by this exceeding show of courtesy and conciliation to please the Opposition, they ‘A ill find themselves most egregiously deceived. Nothing will conciliate the Tories but the resigns. tion of Government, and the abandonment of the Bill, and even this will not conciliate them, it will only provoke their contempt. For their own sakes then, as Men, as statesmen, as Englishmen, as well as for the sake of the country which has made such noble efforts to procure them a triumphant majority, we conjure Ministers to lay aside all further lethargy ; to put on a bold front ; and carry the Bill promptly, unhesitatingly, and uninter ruptedly through Committee. The country, we can assure them, is becoming most keenly sensitive on the subject. Already the great Northern Unions are stirring. Numerous public meetings, too, are an nounced in the West of England ; arid the Live' y Of London is on the eve of expressing its opinion on the subject of that fatal clause, the division of counties into diAricts, when we doubt not the ap- parent supineness of Ministers will also be taken into consideration. The French Papers contain little or no news of importance. The Messager des Chambres contains an article on the subject of the French occupation of Belgium, wholly of a pacific, conciliatory character, stating that no self-love can make the French nation desire a prolongation of their stay in Belgium be yond the necessary time, and that, if they should remain there, their " reasons will be such, that their propriety will be evident to all the world." The following are erracts from Dutch and German Papers, received this day : THE HAGUE, AUG. 21. " TO THE KING. " Head_quarte►s Eindhoven, Aug. 20. " I have the honour to inform your Majesty that yes terday, the 19th, I fixed my head quarters here. Your Majesty's troops have to-day all returned into North Bra bant, and to-morrow, the 21st, they will again go into their cantonments in the following manner : " The Ist division to have its head-quarters at Breda, and occupy the villages and plains in the. environs. " The 2d division, head-quarters at Aerschot. 4‘ The 3d division, head-quarters at Eindhoven. " The Ist brigade of cavalry is at Oesterhou . , the 2d a t Eindtioyc T and the environs. " The division of infaß4y, under Lieutenant-General Count Heyligers, to be at St:Oedenrode and thy environs. " I think to fix my own head-quarters at Tilburg. " I flatter myself that your Majesty will be pleased to hear that I yesterday received a report from Lieutenant- General Yan Geen, from Turnhout, stating that he there met an Aide-de-camp of Marshal Gerard, accompanied by a 11elgin Officer, to whom the jlarsbal had given instruc tions to take care that, in case there shouldbe any Belgian troops in the neighbonrhood, they should be rem ove d to a proper distance front your Majesty's troops, andto pre vent all possible collipion between our troops and th e i rs . " I consider this as a new proof of the ;Ltrshare amic able intentions with, respect to us. " The..Commander-in-Chief, " WILLIAM, PRINCE OF ORANGE." "ORDER. OF THE DAY. --- ft Head-quarters, Eindhoven, Aug. 20,.1831. " C e n the return of the Netherlands army to the posi tions Which it occupied on the Ist of August, I must again e xpress my gratitude for the readiness and accuracy with which all my dispositions and'orders have been executed. I must repeat my thanks for the• steadfast zeal with which Lardships and privations have been borne in this short but fatiguing cawpagn. The King,'all•the Netherlands, and even foreign court tries, do justice to the noble zeal and virtuous feelings which have shed new lustre on the ancient Dutch name: `.! 41 . 0 p" prn!qt tb reward merit, the ~ Kind has in, ormed me that the cannon taken from the enemy shall be (melted, and medals cast from it, which shall adorn the breasts of my brave companions in arms. " This new mark of the King's cordial sat:sfa:lion will undoubtedly be a fresh subject of joy to the whole army. Equally pleasing to all will be the news, that the King, as an affectionate father, will, in a few days, come among them, to see again the brave soldiers, militia, and volun teev, who, a month ago, gave him the assurance of their fidelity and attachment—an assurance which they have since sealed with their blood on the field of honour, but that the whole army was ready to march at a moment's notice, that it was well disciplined and trained in the use of arms, fo: this it was indebted to the indefatigable exer- tions of my beloved brother, the Admiral and Colonel Ge neral. The King has, therefore, at my in.tance, imme diately resolved to reward with the Grand Cross of the Order of William the great service of the Admiral and Colonel-General, who constantly assisted me and fought - , by my &de. Your grateful sense of what you owe to him convinces me that you will hear with pleasure this reso lution of the King, and it is for this reason communicated to the army in the present order of the day. " The Commander-in-Chief of the Army, " WILLIAM, PRINCE OF ORANGE." TIIE HAGUE, Ana. 21.—This morning their Royal Highnesses the Princess of Orange, with her two sons, the Princess Frederigit of the Netherlands, and Prince Albert of Prussia, will set out for Tilburg, to welcome their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Orange and Prince Frederick, on their return from the army. Their Royal Highnesses will he here again on Tuesday, when the Prince of Orange is also expected. AMSTERDAM, Ana. 20.—The Journals contain various articles relative to the return of the Dutch troops into North Brabant. Accounts from Axel of the 15th say that all is now quiet in the two districts. Our troops must not act offensively, but keep what they have taken since the commencement of hostilities on the 2d instant. The Belgians also have, as it seem, received orders from the conference at London to remain on the defensive. Accounts from Hulst, also of the 15th, say that the Belgians are quiet, only that now and the,' they steal a little forage from the farmers. Actual Debt, 2% per cent 35% to 364 Voluntary Loan Amort Syndic, 44 per cent. Ditto, ditto, 34 per cent. THE HAGUE, Auc. 21.—0 n the 18th his Royal Highness Prince Frederick very unexpectedly visited the fortress of Maestricht, where he was received amidst the discharges of artillery by the Governor and his staff, and the municipal authorities. After reviewing the garrison and giving an audience to theufficers, the civil corporation, and the clergy, his Royal Highness returned in the after- noon to Hasselt. We have received from good authority the following document, which is remarkable on more accounts than one ; and shows, among other things, that the Belgians must pay dear for their deliverance. The magazine of St. Trond, mentioned in the document, is no other than the church in which the _Roman Catholic Belgians usually per formed. HASSFLT, AuG. 15.—T0 the Burgomasters of A requisition of the following articles is imposed on the communes of this district for the supply of 60,000 men, and 10,000 of the French army, for four days. viz. :360,000 Kilogrammes of Bread 120,000 Litres of Wine 12,000 Ditto of Geneva 7,500 Kilogrammes of Rice 3,750 Ditto 60,000 Ditto Meat 200,000 Ditto 200,000 Ditto 200,000 Ditto The portion of which for your commune is —, half of which articles are to be delivered to-morrow, and the other half on the 17th, into the magazine at St. Trond, where receipts for the articles will he delivered. " I must inform you, that if the said articles are not delivered in the time specified, your commune will be Hai& to military execution. It is, therefore, necessary, in order to orevent any thing unpleasant, that you take speedy and effectual measures to comply with this requisition. " 1 must make you personally responsible fur all the disagreeable consequences that may ensue to your com merce from neglecting to comply with this order. " The Provisional District• Commissary at Hasselt." We learn from Brussels that the inhabitants of the town of Philippeville, a frontier fortress of Belgium, to which it was united in 1814, but which formerly belonged to France, have applied to the French Chamber of De- puties, petitioning to he again united to France. It is affirmed that this example will be followed by several other towns. AMSTERDAM, AUGUST 22. Actual Debt, 2% per cent 36 to 96g Voluntary Loan 771( to 78 1 4 Amort Syndic, 4% per cent. Ditto, ditto, 3% per cent. BRUSSELS, Atm. 20.—We are assured that M. J. de Hoogvorst, and not M. de Stassart, is to represent the Government at Vienna. M. Duva de Beaulieu will be sent to Berlin. A great part of the first 'ban of the Civic Guard of Brussels returned to the city yesterday. LIEGN, Also. 19.—Yesterday morning the 39th French regiment of the line entered TOngres., A firing of cannon was heard in the direction of Maestricht, which seethe to have been a salute on the arrival of the Dutch Princes in that city. ' ANTWERP, AUG. 19 —The Dutch continue to work at cutting the dike at Zwyndrecht and on the right bank, in order to open communications with the Lower Scheldt. These openings may cause irreparable damage in high tides, if the wind should be in such a direction as to increase their effect. We must observe, too, that the Dutch occupy some posts in our territory, which they have taken since their invasion, and which they ought now to evacuate according to the convention. The inundations about Zwyndrecht are so high that boats can go from Burgt to Caßoo. Not only the Polders but the high lands are inundated. In the bombardment of Antwerp the American mer chants lost goods to the amount of about a million and a half of florins : it seems that the Government of the United States has demanded an indemnification from the King of Holland, and threatens to lay an embargo on all Dutch vessels in the American ports if this demand is not com plied with. The Journal de Luxemburg says—" The French army is 'to occupy Belgium for a short time only. The con ference at London will take advantage of it, to execute the disarming of the whole military force, to reduce Belgium to the state of a neutral power, with only the force indis pensable for maintaining order in the interior. The poli tical arrangements respecting the limits and the debt will also be regulated according to the tenor of the protocols. The Belgian Government will not delay to abandon Bel gium, and .to return within the frontiers traced by the eighteen articles. A recent protocol has determined on the measures adapted to lead to these results, which are of particular importance to the tranquillity of France, and will lead immediately to the pacification of Poland." At a quarter before two o'clock this day the KING, acoompanied by the Duke of SAXE bIEININ• GEN, arrived in an open carriage and four, and escorted by a party of the 9:h Lancers, at St. James's Pulace, and shortly after his MAJESTY held a Levee. A Privy Council was afterwards held, and his MAJESTY will leave town at six o'clock. A Cabinet Council will be held this evening at the Foreign-office. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—May I beg of your insertion of a few observations relative to the Army and Navy promotions, which will doubt less take place on the approaching Coronation. Heretofore, on sirrila.c as well as on other public occasions, it has been the custom of the Sovereign to mark the period by what is termed a general promotion of the officers of the military and naval services, and in the former, this act of Royal bounty has extended to every branch of the whole corps, that is to say the Executive, Medical, and Commissariat Departments, whilst in the Navy, the executive officers have been the only portion that experienced the award of Royal beneficence. It will not be presumptuous, at the present period, to expect not only from his Majesty, who before he came to t►he Royal dignity served in and was at the head of the naval service, but those to whom he has entrusted the affairs of the Naval Department, will no longer uphold such marked and invidious distinctions, as to leave out, in the dispension of Royal favour, a body of men who equally with those termed executive officers, have, generally speaking, devoted the best portion of their lives in the ser vice of their country, exposed to all the privations of a sea lif;;, and serving in every climate. It is true, that with each class-of the Naval Staff (except an occasional appoint ment to a dock-yard or hospital), .there is no promotion open, but with the disposition, it may, be hoped a. way will easily be traced of conferring on the Naval Staff some iperk of -Royal favour, on the auspicious occasion of the Coronation , pf his Most Gracious Majesty William the Fouttlw 'August )13th, 1831.

THE MARQUIS OF HEADFORT'S CLAIM a t:h On this case being called on, Sir Win. Betham appeared bar as the agent of the petitioner, when The LORD CHANCELLOR asked him who and w o" was. He replied Ulster, King at Arms. ot The LORD CHANCELLOR—What ! a herald acting 4 11 agent ? I never heard of such a thing. Your business is tfi t in processions. The House cannot possibly hear you, ' never heard of such a course being pursued. Sir Wm. Beecham—lt has been done repeatedly, and 1 ' considered that I bad a right to do so. The LORD CHANCELLOR—You have no such rig"" we cannot hear you. The Earl of Shaftesbury and Lord Wynford concurre d 3 ' propriety of not hearing Sir Wm. Beetham as the agen t 40 petitioner—observing, that they thought the , two chara' herald and agent inconsistent, and highly improper for 0, son to take upon himself. Thecasewas then ordered to stand over; but shortly afte rt Mr. LYNCH appeared as the Counsel of the Marquis fort; the examination of witnesses was then proceedl, after which the Committee came to the resolution that t tioner had made out his claim to vote at the election of presentative Peers for Ireland.
