A general meeting of the Proprietors of Bank Stock was held in the Court-room this morning, for the purpose of declaring a dividend for the current hslf year. The meeting was very fully attended by numbers of the London and Country Banking establishments, some discussions being anticipated on the currency, and other matters of commercial interest, in consequence of the notice of mo tion given on last Court-day by Mr. Young, viz., that he would ask information from the Directors out of what funds the Bank have advanced 13 millions in the purchase of the dead weight—between five and six millions on loans and mortgages to individuals and public bodies—in addi tion to the advance upon Exchequer Bills, amounting to about nine millions, making a total issue of 28 mil lions beyond the chartered capital of the Corporation of 14 millions and upwards. At twelve o'clock the Governor, John H. Palmer, Esq. entered the Court-room, followed by the Deputy Go• vernor and nearly the whole of the Directors. The minutes of the last Court were read, and The GOVERNOR informed the Court that the Directors having looked into the affairs of the Bank, had agreed to recommend a dividend of four per cent. on the capital stock of the Corporation. Was it the opinion of the Court of Proprietors that such a dividend should be declared ? Mr. YOUNG said before that question was put he was anxious to receive answers to several questions of which he had given notice. The Hon. Gentleman then read the questions as noticed above, and contended that it was highly important that they should be answered before the Court agreed to any dividend. The GOVERNOR asked if answers were simply to he given to the questions?--(Mr. Young: Yes.)—He (the Governor) would then give such answers to the questions as the practice of former Courts warranted. He was sur prised that such questions should have been asked. The advances had been made out of the deposits and profits of the Bank, independently of the capital in the hands of Government. The Bank of England received value for all its promissory notes, and the deposits and assets were employed in advances. Mr. Yount:: contended that it was most important that the Proprietors should know what were the profits of the Bank before they agreed to a dividend. If they found so large a sum as twenty-eight millions, a larger dividend ought to be declared, or perhaps a bonus was to be given. The GOVERNOR said, the question had been before fre quently asked, and he was not in a condition to answer it without first receiving the authority of the Court of Proprietors. Mr. Your:a then went on to complain of the injury the Bank did by opening the private banking business, and was left speaking. SALE AT ST. DUNSTAN'S CHURCH, FLEET.STREET. Yesterday the whole materials composing this ancient edifice we,e brought to the hammer, preparatory to the put ting in force Alderman Waithinan's Bill for the entire re moVal of the structure, which has been viewed by the worthy Alderman, and the parish authorities, as oneof the greatest eyesores in the 'Ward. The scene of devastation which the interior of the church exhibited yesterday can hardly be described ; it was a complete mass of uptorn joists and dilapidated pews; even the pulpit came in for a share of the general wreck. When the church was raised is a matter of great doubt.—The first recorded funeral which took place in the parish is in 1421. Another proof of its great age may be found in the fact that it was dedicated to St. Dunstan, an Archbishop of Canterbury, who it appears died A.D. 990. It escaped the great fire of 1666. Of the curious projecting clock and the striking figures, the parish records evidence that the clocktnaker engaged to the parish " to 410 one thing which London shall not show the like." Whether he succeeded or not is another affair ; but the wondering crowd which daily assembles in front of the church at one o'clock, to see the figures come down to dinner, according to popular belief, would warrant the supposition that the ingenious artist who executed the workmanship had succeeded in his project. Most of the curious mural monuments in the church previous to the sale yesterday, were removed by the friends and descend ants of those in memory of whom they had been erected. The most beautiful of these was a marble sarcophagus to the memory of Sir Richard Hoare, Knt., Lord Mayor of London, is the memorable year 1745, and some others. The sale went on briskly, and the following are the prices of some of the reliques. The statue of Queen Elizabeth, which now stands in a niche in the eastern wall of the church, 161. 151. The painting of St. Matthew, in stained glass, 21. 1044. The stained window, 41. be. The pews and other wood work brought the customary prices. The clock and figures are not sold. On Friday last her Royal Highness the Duchess of llntat arived at the King's Arms Hotel, ac companied by the Countess in Boutt.t.st and the Count ox Mxtratts. She preserved a strict incognito, nor was the slightest suspicion entertained of the exalted rank of this interesting visitor till after her departure. --Liverpool Albion. We understand the Duchess arrived at the Iloyel Hotel about five o'clock yesterday afternoon to dinner, and that she quits this town to-morrow for Sheffield.—Man cheater Mercury. The Sheriffs elect for the City of London and County of Middlesex, take upon themselves their (awe on Tuesday next. Their dress-chariots are now ex hibiting at STUBBS and HANcocx's manufactory, that of W. 11. POLAND, Esq. is painted green, with arms and supporters of the City and Company, Ste. in a mantle, as the back-ground that covers the whole side, with rich gilt mouldings, green and white hammer-cloth and lining, a superb pair of brass-mounted lamps, the carriage and wheels are painted to correspond with the body, and very richly gilt. CHAPMAN MARSHALL'S, ESq., is painted a dark brown, with City Arms and Supporters, the Inn holders Arms and Supporters, the County Arms, and his own arms, with trophies and banners, and the rose, sham rock, and thistle, beautifully painted on each side ; scarlet 1 ning and hammer-cloth, with the City Arms, and sup porters in gold on the ends ; the carriage and wheels are nearly gilt all over; and a pair of elegant harness for each carriage. Upon the whole, we think they surpass any of the civic carriages that have been built for some years for taste and elegance, and are highly creditable to the manufacturers. GREAT NORTH ROAD.-A meeting w*s, on Thursday last, held at Askern, to resolve upon a plan of an intended new line of road from Doncaster, by As kern and Selby, where it will join the York road, as a part of the great project tar shortening the distance be tween London and Edinburgh.— York Herold. CORONER OF WESTMINSTER.-It appears that, in consequence of some neglect on the part of some officers connected with the establishment of St. George's Hospital, the Coroner of Westmi►►ater has lately been sub. ject to much inconvenience as well as trouble, in procuring necessary evidence upon inquests attached to his district, whereby the ends of justice have nut received that lull and complete elucidation which was requisite to a proper ver dict. In consequence he has felt it a duty incumbent upon him, in the execution of his authority, to write to the Board, requesting that it would order a more strict inquiry for evidence, in order that Juries might be able to give a satisfactory verdict. Mr., EDWARDS, of Fleet-street, batter, in company with his wife, proceeded, on the 14411 instant, to Harwich, in order to partake of a few days' relaxation from the toils of business; they arrived at the destined port in good health and spirits, and, on Monday last, hired a boat, with the intention of proceeding to Ipswich to spend a few days, when a storm arose, and every indication of bad weather approached ; the boat was upset, occasioned by the vio. deuce of the waves, and, melancholy to relate, all on board perished. After a diligent search, the body of Mrs. En. WARDS was found, but life was quite extinct; the body of her husband, remains in the deep; it is supposed to have been washed away by the overwhelming current. The body of the boatman remains undiscovered. SIR WALTER SCOTT AND THE GLAS. cowzoxaiss.—The Litterateurs of Glasgoiv have dis. graced themselves by the silly and illiberal way in which they have treated the name of Sir WALTIta Score. At a Meeting held of the Stewardsappointed to make the neces sary arrangementi, and prepare the toasts, a Mr. DOUGLAS spoke to the following effect The toast of Sir WAL- Taft SCOTT and the Literature of Scotland can never be permitted to !nand. As a politician, he is the very tern of sycophants—as an historian, be falsifies history syste matically, palliates tyranny, and decries liberty and ridi cules its martyrs. So far from being the proper name to connect with Scottish literature, reversing the boast of Ayourrus, ti at be found Rome brick and left it marble, he found the literature of Scotland classical, and by his prose left it vulgar." The toast ( Credat Judaus !) was expunged; and in consequence Mr. FINLAY, the Chair man, and a number of the Stewards, have tendered their resignation. This petty prejudice will cast a stain oa the character of Glasgow, as it has marred the harmony of a public meeting, whale object was that of shoving their respect for the talents and services of Mr. North Britain.

Her MAJESTY, with the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, took an airing in a carriage for some time. The Dukes of CAMBRIDGE and GLOUCESTER and the Prince walked on the Steyne occasionally during the evening.

The Princes• ELIZABETH of Hesse Homburg and Lady TAILOR have jubt left the Palace in a carriage and four, with out-riders. SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 21. Southampton Races commenced this day, and notwith standing the unfavourable appearance of the weather in the morning, which threatened to be stormy, the rain kept off daring the day. The course was well attended by the surrounding nobility and gentry, with many visitors from the Isle of Wight, &c. In consequence of the quantity of rain lately the course was very heavy. Last evening about five o'clock Ws Royal Highness Prince LaoroLn arrived at the Star lan, in his travelling carriage and four, accompanied by the Baron DE STOCK • MAR. His Royal Highness walked about the town for nearly an hour last evening, and about nine this morning took his departure for Bath. Rumour says that his Royal Highness intends calling at Lullworth Castle on his way. VISIT OF PRINCE LEOPOLD TO BATH, His Royal Highness Prince Leopold, accompanied by his private secretary, Baron Stockmar, arrived in Bath yes tet day evening, in his way to Malvern, on a visit to his Royal sister, the Duchess of Kent. An immense number of persons were collected in front of York House, and the Prince appeared at the window, in order to afford them a view of his person. This morning flags were hoisted on the different church steeples, and his Royal Highness, amidst the firing of bells, &c., and accompanied by Mr. Spry, the Mayor's son, and other gentlemen, proceeded to view the Baths, Pump-room, Abbey Church, the Literary Institution, and other public places. On arriving at the Cross Bath, the crowd had become so numerous that his Royal Highness's carriage was brought to the door, but he declined to get into it, and walked leisurely among the people, taking off • his hat, and bowing as he passed. There was, however, no cheering. The Prince was dressed in the plainest manner, having on a black surtout, His Royal Highness then returned to the Guildhall, where the freedom of this ancient city was presented to him by the town-clerk, in an elegant gold box, accompanied by a suitable address from the Mayor. His Royal Highness expressed his sense of the honour conferred upon him in a feeling and gentlemanly manner ; he afterwards partook of an elt./tnt dejeune a lafourchette with the Corporation, and left the Hall to pay a visit to that remarkable object, Beckford's Tower, upon Lans'lown. In the course of the day, I understand, he also inspected the beautiful improve ments now going on in the neighbourhood of Marlborough buildings, under the title of " the Bath Park." His Royal Highness expressed himself highly delighted with the scenery and buildings of the city, and grateful for the cordial reception he bad met with. He leaves this evening or to-marrow for Malvern, CHELTENHAM, SEPT. 21. The Countess of JERSEY arrived here last Wednesday, and is very regular in her attendance at the morning p ro - menade at the Montpelier Spa, where she drinks the waters. The Marchioness of Hasrmos, and several others of the nobility, are also water drinkers at the same Spa. Her Highness the Princess ESTERHAZY and suite left this place this morning for Malvern, where they purpose remaining some days, and will afterwards return to elle!. tenham, and it is expected will then continue here to the end of the season. Mr. KEAN performed twice at our theatre last week, in the character of Richard HI. and Sir Giles Overreach, and takes his farewell benefit this evening in the character of Othello. C. MATHEWS purposes being At Rome, at the Assem bly Rooms, to-morrow, when be intends entertaining us with his comic Annual. The opening of the New Church near the Montpelier Rotunda is to take place on Tuesday, the tith of next ►nonth, the Bishop having fixed that day for the Consecra tion.—The town still continues very full. WEYMOUTH, SEPT. 21. Weymouth still remains very gay, although sgveral of our fashionable visitors have left us. The ball ut the Assembly Rooms, which takes place to-morrow, is ex pected to be very full. Amongst our last are Jon); Da Nis Buowtsx, Esq., from Bath; Thomas D. LAMBERT, Esq., from Ireland ; General MILNER, CBlOliel SLADE, &c. ik e . dorm DENIS BROWNE ) Esq., accompanied by Mr. LAMBERT, intend visiting Lullworth Castle to-slay. The Duke of CAMBRIDGE has purchased Cholmondeley House, in Piccadilly (nearly opposite to the reservoir in the Green Park), which his Royal High ness intends to make his future town residence when in England. It is said to be the intention of their MA JEtrms to remain at the Pavilion till February, and to pass their Christmas there, to the great disappointment of the people, who are anxious to see Royalty once more at Windsor. The Kwa's stay in London will be so short when he conies to open the new Parliament, that Ile will leave the QUEEN behind him, intending to return to her MAJESTY on the same or the following day. Economy" is the word in vogue in the Royal Household, replacing that heedless expendi ture which heretofore ruled. Contracts are en tered into With butchers, who supply the Palace kitchen with beef at 6d, per lb. all round; and with the poulterers, for fowls of all sizes, at Bs. the pair. Independently of evidence of due care in expending what is, in truth, public money, the fact which we have great pleasure in recording above disproves the report that pro visions with us are rendered dearer by the presence of Royal ty. —Br ighten Guardian. Lord HILL, the General Commanding-in- Chief of his Majesty's forces, arrived at the Albion Hotel, in this city (Chester), with his private secretary, Colonel EGERTON, on Friday last, and reviewed the depot of the 63d Regiment, stationed here, of which he is Colonel. It was not generally known that his Lordship intended to visit Chester; but on his entrance into the Castle-yard be was warmly greeted by the spectators assembled, who sa luted him with every mark of respect. His Lordship ex pressed himself highly pleased with the discipline and sol flier-like appearance of the troops, as well as gratified with the state of the armoury under the superintendence of Captain Hatrtuzasotr. Ile left Chester for Harkstone,-- Chester Chronicle. On Tuesday week, Captain RowLEy, son of Sir Was. RowLzy, Bart. late Member for this County, WAS married to the Hon. MANIA LOUISA VANNECK, only daughter of Lord Ilustuszonsui, of flaveningham Park. The young ltely has a fortune of her own of 80,0001.-- AU awful event occurred during the performance of the ceremony. They were married at the parish church of flaveninghatn, and after the clerk (Wm. Fug) had made two or three responses, he fell down ; this circumstance was not perceived by the bride, as she stood with her hand to her face. One of the gentlemen present stepped be fote the fallen man, that the bride should not notice the accident ; and when the ceremony was ilaished, it was found that the clerk was dead. lie was about 70 years of age.--SIOM IltruW. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DONCASTER RACES. DONCASTER, TUESDAY NIGHT. At an early hour this morning the town assumed a busting appearance, especially in the vicinity of the Bet ting-rooms, where a considerable crowd had collected. Carriages and vehicles of almost every other description continued to arrive in rapid succession, and by twelve o'clock the streets were thronged. About this time there was a general move towards the Race-course, which, by the hour appointed fur the commencement of the running, presented a scene of extreme animation. Vast numbers had taken their stations in the various stands erected fur general accommodation, while several of the Nobility, friends of the Stewards, occupied the building appro• printed to their reception. In the Grand Stand the as semblai,re of rank, beauty, and fashion, was imposing, the fascination of the scene being heightened in no small degree by the splendid dresses of the ladies. It must be confessed, however, that Doncaster races are not what they have been. Notwithstanding the general excellence of the sport, the paramount interest of the St. Leger, and the unequalled opportunities for display, racing, like every thing else, has suffered by the depression of the times; anti those who would see Doncaster races must pay fur it. It should be observed, too, that the falling off is, in some degree, attributable to the very extravagant manner' in which every thing is charged for. The unsettled state of the weather is also against the meeting ; add to this, that the Stewards, although gentlemen of fortune, and of the highest respectability, have not sufficient personal influence and connection to add to the ordinary attractions of the meeting. The Duke of Buccleugh and the Duke of St. Albans are talked of as Stewards for 1831; should they consent to act, there can be little doubt that the well remembered Stewardship of the Marquis of Londonderry will be at least equalled. To those who have not seen Doncaster in its best days, the appearance of the Race course must have been singularly grand ; indeed, to us, who have been in the habit of attending meetings of a similar description, the assemblage seemed immense, and in point of fact it was so, the actual difference being ascer tainable from other sources than a mere view of the mass of spectators collected on the ground. Of course, the entire interest of the day centred in the all engrossing St. Leger, upon which so many thousands were at issue ; nowhere was the excitement more intense, or so power fully expressed, as in the Grand Stand ; here, during the progress of the race, the utmost state of anxiety was dis played by all ranks, while its termination was greeted with shouts so loud and long, as to harmonise but little with the rank and appearance of those from whom they pro ceeded. The other races were scarcely noticed; every thing like interest or excitement bad evaporated with the St. Leger.

Until about eleven o'clock the weather was unpromising in the extreme ; up to that hour the rain had been inces sant, and appearances induced a general belief that it would continue so throughout the day. At that time, however, it ceased; although the sky was gloomy enough, it held up during the remainder of the afternoon. Mr. Petre having been obliged to go to York on business connected with his Mayoralty, the races did not commence till half past two, in order to enable him to return in time for the St. Leger.

The betting in the morning at the Rooms was chiefly between horses, the prices averaging pretty nearly the same as on the preceding night, with the exception that Priam fell bark to 6 to 4, and very few takers. In the Stand he rose in favour, and at the start was very close upon even betting with the field ; indeed many affirm that be was so. We think, however, that the field had the call, and should say that it was 11 to 10 agst the favourite.

A more (qua! ram t could not have occurred—all got well off at the first word, and no one can pretend that he lost on that score. If there was any advantag e it was gained by Emancipation, who took a decided lead, at “ very middling race, Maria having the second place, and behind her The Cardinal, Bir mingham, 13runswicker, Lady Mowbray, The Chancellor, Mimic, Moss R ose , P e d estrian, and Lawrie Todd, Priam lying in the centre of the lot. In this order they ran as far as the bill, and, at this early part of the race, Revolution, an d two or three more of the same grade, found that they had had quite enough of it. No other change of import ance took place till they got to the Red House, where symptoms of being tired were evinced by Masan, Moss Rose, Lady Mowbray, and The Chancellor. Lady Em meline, at this point, swerved against Brunswieker, and nearly knocked hint down. All this time Priam remained in the situation he had occupied at the commencement—he ne w drew a little upon his horses, at the same time occa sioning a considerable amendment in the speed, which di rec tly after became severe. Emancipation.. conti nued the lead, M ar i a , Pedestrian, end The . Care &Mal lying cleat behind, while Birmingham and Mimic were nearly abreast of Priam.

At the distance ConoHy called upon Bir mingham, Chifney at the same time making a strong effort with Priam. At the Stand, Birmingham headed Eman cipation, and instantly after Priam d id the same. Chifney now began whipping and spurring, Conolly working his horse, but without usinz the whip, and winning cleverly by half a length. The winner is a remarkably tine large horse, is well topped, and has immense stride : this and the heaviness of the ground won him the race. Without reference to the result of the race it must lie admitted on all hands that the public have every reason to be satisfied with the conduct of the Clamys in the train ing and general management of Priam, than which nothing could have hen more honest and straight-forward. Long before he made his appearance in public they ascertained him to be a very superior horse, as well in all his exterior points us in the essentials necessary to constitute a perfect racer—he was speedy, good-tempered, and could run on. Without any of the finessing so often resorted to in order to influence the betting, he was ut once brought into the market for the Derby, backed at all prices with great spirit, and won his race as easy as his owners had asserted he would. They supported him for this race in the same candid and determined manner, and were thus enabled to make him a winner both ways. lie was brought to the post in a style that elicited general admiration. One gentleman stood to win 25,0001. by the horse's winning, and 12,0001. by his defeat. In this respect the Hassan party, if they were wise, must have been large winners, having risen from 30 to Ito6to I. We do not see how any could have profitted by Brunswicker's winning, for, after his running at Epsom, his friends had nothing else to do but get their mon e y off, and very few were bold enough to " stand the shot." If he had been in any other stable than Scott's they would never have been able to manage matters so pleasantly ; but in these cases a fancy stable goes a great way. Two or three of the select have made a good thing by laying against him. The books on this race were much lighter than usual, owing to the supposed certainty of Priant's winning. The Warwickshire people are great winners, the losers coming chiefly from the North and South. The defeat of Priam created a very powerful sensation, which is height ened by the fact that he had a perfectly fair start, did his best, and had the best jockey in the kingdom; to us, how ever, it is very clear that, with the turf in good order fur running, he can, et any time, heat Birmingham.

DONCASTER, WEDNESDAY MORNING. The settling for the St. Leger has just commenced, and every thing at present bids fair to go off' quietly at this stage, however it is impossible to speak with any thing like certainty. The betting on the Gold Cup has been very limited, as yet the only two hacked are his Majesty's mare Fleur de Lis at 3 to 1, and Mr. Petre's Rowton at 4 to 1. Some time after the race the Judge placed Emancipation third for the St. Leger. ORIGIN OF TIIE EAST INDIA COMPANY It was no sooner known in London that the Dutch had penetrated beyond the Cape of Good Hope, than the English merchants de termined, at all hazards, to keep pace with their rivals. An association was formed in 1599, and a fund raised by subscription, the management of which was entrusted to a Committee of fifteen persons ; whilst a second application was made, with greater earnestness than before, for the royal sanction upon the Company's proceedings. But Elizabeth, though well inclined to the mea- sure, was deterred ft:Om giving to it her counte nance, in consequence of the treaty then pend ing between England and Spain. She con tented, therefore, herself with referring the me morial to her Privy Council, which made a fa vourable report ; and in the course of the same year John Mildenhall, a merchant, was sent overland by the route of Constantinople on an embassy to the Great Mogul. It does not appear that this measure, however well intended, produced any favourable results ; indeed, the obstructions thrown in the way of the Ambassador proved such, that he failed in reaching Agra, or obtaining an interview with the Emperor, till the year 1606; but the mer cantile spirit of England was not therefore re pressed. On the contrary, fresh applications were made to Elizabeth for that license, with out which it was considered hopeless to embark in so gigantic an undertaking ; and her own inclinations happening to coincide with the views of the Privy Council, the boon so earnestly so licited was obtained. On the 13th of December, .1600, the petitioners were erected into a corpo ration, under the title of. , Governors and Com pany of Merchants of London trading to the East Indies." They were vested, by charter, with the power of purchasing lands without any limita tion ; they were enjoined to commit the direc tion of _ their commerce to a Governor and twenty-four persons in committee ; and the first Governor, Sir Thomas Knight, was specially named in the Act. Upon the Company, their sons when of age, their apprentices, servants, and factors in India, was conferred, for the space of fifteen years, the privilege of an exclusive trade " into the countries and parts of Asia and Africa, and into and from all the islands, ports, towns, and places of Asia, Africa, and Ame rica, or any of them, beyond the Cape of lions lisperanza, or the Straits of Magellan, where any traffic may be used, to and from every of them." Such were the feeble commencements of a power which now holds sovereign sway over the entire continent of India, with the islands im mediately contiguous. Two hundred and fifteen persons, with the Earl of Cumberland at their head, composed the Company to which this charter was originally granted, and the capital with which they prepared to engage in their novel enterprise amounted barely to 70,0001., divided into shares of .501. each. With this they fitted out a fleet, consisting of four ships and a pinnace, which they freighted with cloth, lead, no, cutlery, and glass, and adding to the cargo the value of 28,7421. in bullion, they committed the whole to the management of Capt. James Lancaster. On the Id of May, 1601, the squadron sailed from Torbay.—Fa. wily Library, No. XV.

Affairs in the Netherlands are rapidly approaching a crisis. Papers and letters from Holland and from . Belgium, of the 20th, give us reason to believe that Brussels has either by this time submitted to the Government, or that its inhabitants have exchanged their equivocal character of armed petitioners for that of declared rebels. We subjoin extracts from the Brussels papers of the 21st inst., premising that Belgic journals are generally antedated, so that those of the 21st contain only the news of the 20th, and that only to an early hour of the afternoon of that day. These papers contain no fact of importance; but it was reported by the passengers of the steam packet which left Ostend yesterday morning, that on Monday afternoon a tumult had taken place at Emus sels,—that the populace had attacked the Civic Guard, and that the military were about to enter the town to settle the dispute. We have as yet no proof of this statement; but we think it extremely probable that on the actual or threatened advance of the King's troops towards Brussels, some disturb ances would take place, with the connivance of the insurgent junta, in order to furnish a pretext for a farther resistance to the King's authority. That the populace whom the respectable citizens had dis armed on the 26th ult, in the plenitude of its power, and the height of its success, while they themselves were as yet unprovided with arms and unatquainted with discipline, should attack and ove r c ome t h e same body, fully armed and organized, is one of those absurdities which cannot be listened to for a moment. Besides, the savage rabble who brunt and pillaged the houses of obnoxious persons at the commencement of the insurrection, acted from no political motive, and , expressed no other feeling but that of dissatisfaction with their own distressed situation. Hence the same hands which applied the torch to the house of the Minister, Van Maanen, on the first day, were employed on the second in destroying the machinery of a manufactory. This class of starving agitators, therefore, were satisfied with the abolition of the tax upon bread, and the promise of employment, in order to be able to earn it. They understood nothing of the•policy of an administrative separation of the provinces, which the Committee of the Hotel de Ville has de clared so essential to their happiness; and if they have again appeared on the political stage, it was only at the cull of their more noble prompters, and to act a part to which they have been • preview)), trained. Such a disorganized body could not wrest arms from the hands of their wealthier fellow citi zens, who have been teaching them submission to themselves, while they resisted the Government ; and if they have really obtained arms and have been excited to use them in the political crisis, they have been encouraged and put forward by others who can better calculate the dangers cyf resistance and the penalties of treason, and who, though anxious to secure the triumph of their opinions, are not disposed to risk their persons or their fortunes in the struggle. If the Government, supported by the opinion of the States• General, and calculating on the acquiescence of the other Belgic towns, has decided on employ ing troops to restore order in Brussels and Liege, the majority of civic guards tray not be disposed to sanction the extreme demands of their most violent leaders. We say this without meaning any re flection either on their !slivery or their patriotism. No nation in the world (with the exception of the English) have shown a stronger or a loner attachment to liberty than the people of the Ne therlands,--have clung to their ancient ri g h ts w i t h more fondness, or defended their independence with more courage. Their generous principle and highs minded conduct illustrate some of the brightest pages of European history. Whether under their petty Princes, in separate provinces, or united under the House of Burgundy, or subjected to the Spanish monarchy, or again transferred to the head of the German empire, they have never permitted their rulers to invade their rights or to trample on their franchises. Hence their early civilization and re markable progress in the arts,--hence their com mercial wealth, and their unexampled agriculture! prosperity. Renee they were enabled to arrest anti • imprison their Imperial master, Maximilian, at Ghent —hence they resisted the dark policy of Philip IL, and compelled the House of Austria at diff eren t t i mes to respect their privileges. But it ought to be re collected, that before the union of the provinces, the northern or Dutch pint of them were the rivals o f the south ; that afterwards the United Provinces were the superiors of the latter ; that the Dutch have ehown,. greater spirit in defending their independentce . than any part of the Belgic Netherlands; and that their present King, so far from wishing to ee. slave them, has done every dill* to consolidate their constitutional freedom. Why then, should not the seventeen provinces remain united under the House of Orange as well as under the sceptre of the Dukes of Burgundy, or of the Emperor Charles V. ? The Seven United . Provinces, so long tin important power in the balance of Europe, are not rendered unworthy of the renewed alliance by their greater wealth, or by the two centuries of glory which they bring as a dowry to the now union. The King has agreed to remove the existing causes of annoyance; he has dire. missed his obnoxious Minister; he has done every thing that he could, us the bead of the executive, and premises to do every thing that he can, as is branch of the Legislatu r e. Van Maanen is no longer Minister' of Justice,—the Philosophical School of Louvain is abolished,—the decree respecting the language is abrogated, and the other grievance corn plained of will, in time, be redressed. Having con nived so long at the Brussels insurrection, and having allowed his son to be a prisoner in the hands of the malcontents, his Majesty has a right to say that anarchy must at last cease or war begin, and that the Committee of Public Safety must make its choice between prompt obedience or rebellious resistance. It would appear absurd to have two separate admi, nistrations, two distinct courts, two systems of finance, two separate armies, and two codes of law, for a kingdoM so small in extent and eo compact in form as that of the Netherlands. As well might Belgium be again divided into the dominions of its ancient Ceunte of Flanders and Dukes of Brahma; or England be resolved into the kingdoms bi this heptarchy. When to this we add the difficulties which would spring up respecting the disposal of fortresses built with European contributions, and placed under European conventions, in case of a separation,---the necessity of renewing again the hairier treaty, and perhaps disputing the navigation of the Scheid, the arguments against such a nice sure appear almost Irresiltible.—Thnee, Cemented with the news from Brussel., the public will peruse with interest ►he proceedings of the States-General at the Hague. The debate in the Second Chamber on Saturday last was or to importance in the present state of The speech of Hee Vat; darn Van Ya;elt, who seconded Her Van Sytranntea motion, was very animated.
