A journal says, that " the preparations for the illumination of the Park on the anniversary of his Alajesty*s birth-day, have excited profound discon tent timong the people." We confess we do not understand what this journal means, and beg that it will explain itself dearly. lithe mewling of these lines is suelt as it appears to be, we can see in them and every body w►ll see as we do, only a shameful falsehood, and a gross insult to the population of the city of Brussela. We see clearly indeed that attempts are making to agitate the lower classes of this population, but ' certainly they will not bileterd. it is nut ;tithe midst of a city which is almost entirely renewed by num. , - rolls and beautiful buildings which employ so many hands, end give-occasion for so many diabursernetin. by Which the pioOloprOtit ; it is not in a city where the grass formerly grew in the 'streets, and where multitude of houses were untenanted, whereas now, all houses have greatly increased in value, and splendid magasines have sprung Op on every side; it is not in a city formerly without committee and • without manufactures, and now animated by so many establishments, both public and private, ar the gates of which two canals and a vett basin are now on the point of being completed,—it is not, we repeat, in a city which has become a Royal resi dence, which has become in a few years one of the most agreeable and remarkable cities of Europe, titter some men, without mission, without consistency, will • succeed in exehieg discontent.

In the evening the Officers of the City Guard and of the garrison in their turn took part in a grand repast, at which the most lively and cordial gaiety prevailed, and 'toasts to the King und Royal Family were drank with enthusiasm.

We shall' simply confine ourstlves to the office of repooeta. It is pretty generally known how much the Bel , glans, of all classes, and it; all the provinces, are . die satisfied. Our Deputies in the Chambers, end the independent Journals, have frequently adverted to thiefact. The day before yesterday the public read with surprise and chagrin , an article in the Gazelle des Pays /foe (the official Government Paper), which !poke with,emphasicof the happiness which all the Belgians enjoyed, and of the intoxication and rejoic• • ingetbayare plunged into. This language was the more 011lieting,. es, for some days past the public exalt. .veretion had been violent, and given rise to much tins easiness respecting the disposition of the public. mind. Yesterday evening the per formaoce of La Maehe de Porlici hail attracted an immense crowd; the house could not contain all the %dimwit, and the: crowd hail eves; stationed itself on the equate of the At the conclusion of the play numerous groups. . formed themselver, and proceeded towards the office of Le Nahanni, Rue Foot} aux Loops. In a moment the window* were smashed, and it was attempted to burst open the door. A voice exclaimed, " Let use go to Lila) , I" At these words the crowd retraced its steps, and went to the residenc e of Libry Barium, to ie Polymathie Library, Rue slit La. Madeleine, neer the great couch-office. The: multitude increased every moment. The windows were broken ; the doors were burst in ; ell the fur niture wits demolished, the papers and books were torn, and thrown Out of the window in tatters. By a fortunate . aceitlenti Libry Bageano, the principal Editor of the National, was not found at home, by which his life was sever,. The crowd choked up already the broad street : Lit Madeleine. It was eleven o'clock at night, during this first effervescence the • police , wisely lib. stained from acting its intervention would only have proved pernicious. '1 he gendarmes were told—;- "'Don't act„ , and you will be let alone." 'Towards midnight the crowd dispersed. One poop went to the Place 'loyal, preceded by it flag Composed of the ,currides of Libry Begtieno. l'he officer of that post come out, end asked what they wanted The Cileurialitler of the: town erne forward likewise.

These Simple words produced More deer than the stoutest resortenee would have done. Another group went by the Niue de l'Emperem •to the street Rupbreek, stopped before the Ni no of.Justice,and in a moment broke all the windows of the Hull of the .Court of A.'ize, with the cries of " Down with Van Mermen l Long live do Fetter!" Shortly after the General who commends the town proceeded to the Hotel de Ville, and the Horse Gendturnes commenced to patrol about iii detach ments. • Amore numerous crowd proceeded to the nee de Berlaimont, to the house of It 9, de Kuyff, Ithe'Dirretor of the Police. It was forcibly entered, votthate, as at the residence of Libry, every thing broken and destroyed ; but there, likewise, not a 1114 4 1 , article was Abstracted. One individual wanted fr "'lrrY ratite cloak of the Director of the Police, bat he was trampled upon by the people, and the cloak 4 4011 was torn into a thousand fragments. crowd began there already to assume a more serious anti violent aspect.

Van Mimeo, the Minisier of Jiistiee situatell in the Place do Petit sitblon, opposite the P r' Nits Calinef/. When the people wer e belr t ht residence, the exasperation se,emed to have read le d its highest pitch. The doors, being burst in, shortly actetwir& gave free admittance to the multitude, who poured in with cries of" Down with Van Maanen !" Fur niture and effects of every description were de. moliihed. The troops wished to restore order, but they were too feeble. They were attacked, diii. timed, and obliged to retreat. After this first ex plo*ion, the multitude seemed to concert measures, and set lire to the building. The smoke appeared rapidly ; the 'crowd rushed out, and ranged itself round the Hotel, and declared that it would not re tire before the building was burnt down to its very foundation. The conflagration made great progress. The flames were perceptible from afar—the firemen hastened to the spot, with their engines, towards four o'clock, but they were repulsed, and fenced to return to the Hotel tie Ville. This va-t edifice being set on fire served thus , as a point of assem blage...l4 great number of workmen ran to the spot without pillaging, but likewise without retiring. During; the night the gunsmiths had been com pelled to deliver up the . arms contained in their stores, The people distributed them; such as had any guns at home went out with them, and some muskets were taken from the soldiers, or abandoned by them, that they might not have to fire. Work men were seen to surround an officer near the Palace of Justice, putting u pistol to his breast, and asking him, on his word of honour, that ho should not order the people to be fired upon. Towards five o'clock in the morning, and Ml,rt the broad light of day illuminated the movemen . s, the armed force displsyed it-elf more. A battaliol. of chamseurs and it battalion of grenadiers spread themselves in companies through the streets where the agitation Was greatest. It was in the Place du Sudo') where, about six o'clock in the morning, an officer ordered a platoon tire, reid where the struggle became bloody. Presently the wounded were seen being 'carried home; men - among the people were seen to fall down dead, being struck by the balls of the soldiery ; and gore stained the pavement. This armed force traversed the streets, firing Multiplied volleys; it fired sometimes into the air, and sometimes on the crowd. This repeated firing of musketry resounded throughout the whole town, and spread coesterearion afar. The housee were shut up, and the windows lined with women and curious people : the streets were crowded, being sometimes invaded and ,-ometimes deserted. The inh,bitants were armed with guns, swords, and cudgels; they posted themselves at the corners of the streets, all which gave so extraordinary an up. peurtmce to Brussels that one might have supposed it to be a town expecting to be taken by storm. In the midst of this commotion, it will be felt that it is impossible fur us to give so detailed a de setiption as the public has a right to.expect. Exact ness has appeared to us preferable to extent. The lire of musketry continues uninterrupted to this mornott, which is ten o'clock in the mining. The house of M. Schuez►nans, the King's Pro curator-General, bits been assailed during the night, and the windows of it have been broken. Some workmen - have to►n from the shops of the Purveyors of the Court the at ns of the Royal Fa mily, and many of the tradesmen have spontaneously taken them away. This morning two dead corses were lying ex• 'tended neat time Hotel d'Angleterre, and the pave ment reddened with blood. In the street De Louvain the sentries of the mi litia were firing from a window about ten o'clock, when a child, ten years of age, was killed. We are officially desired to declare that, if the arms of the " Guides Communaux" were deposited in a barrack, it was because experience had shown that they bad not been kept in proper order. Good citizens have come to an understanding, and met. It is of importance that public order shall not be disturbed, that the safety of persons and property should remain inviolable, and tranquillity le restored. The Citizen Guard will be immediately organised. It is required as a safeguard, for it alone can pre vent great misfortunes. It will interfere with efficacy to. stop : disasters, which would soon become in evtable; and to prevent re-actions, if any such should be attempted. All your citizens are invited to proceed to the barracks of the Gardes Communaux. A Council is permanently sitting there. They will be furnished with arms, and they will concert measures with the Chiefs of th e Gerdes Communaux. Amidst the thunder of , the firing all opinions upon ►ese commetieus are Fremature. . However, they indicate one indisputable fact, which we must proclaim. The dircontent of the Belgians is great, real, and increasing. 7 . 0 appease it is a duty ; to crave it would be a most sad miscalculation ; to deny it would be the act of a fool. To the people we shall say, " Fulfil still your duty as citizens with zeal, energy, and loyalty; know.to defend your rights, but know also that every offensive, illegal, and disorderly rising is a timit, a folly, and a crime. Conquer youir liberty hy order." May Government open its eyes ! It is no longer the time to dwell on illusions respecting the &spa s tion of the public mind,end the voice of the 13e1s ieiis ought entl must be heard. It would be so easy to the Executive to cause itself to be beloved ,urd respected. It would only require a change or Pi poem, and the discarding a few men, to gain over all hearts! May general wi,ll be attended to, and be done both without delay and without after. thought I Peace would then be restored, liberty would unite all prides, and by liberty the national tulependence would be strengthened. Is it pos ible Ibtl! there cart be any hesitation„.any refusal ? (From'a Correspondent Of the Morning Herald.) On Thursday morning about ten o'clock, in the Petit &Won, a party of men who were cutting down some trees, for the purpose of forming rt barricade Am** the street lending into the Grand Sablon, were tired upon by a party of the Dutch militia, eoe two of the people were badly wounded. About the qune time a regiment of light infantry drawn up in the Grand Sable!! were surreonded by a great mob ; and 1 saw several of the officers shake hands with various individuals among the crowd, and heard them pledge their word not to order their troops to fire urn the people.--" Les soldnts Beiges les (rater nizent le people." The furniture, and all other movables, in the hotel the Commandant has been burned before ' lour;—every thing horned--nothing taken away. About noon yesterday tranquillity was partially: re 4tored, and all the troops mustered hi front of the P a l ace of the King, when, after, some parley, be viced to leave the town to the National Guard, store anti 5,000 of whom have been armed and organised; and the people generally have become much more calm in consequence. The house of M. Kuyfl, Chef de Police, has been ; hutted, arid the entire contents burnt and destroyed in the public strects, lie himself escaped, and is gone off to Antwerp, having given a stuble.keeper 600 francs to convey him thither. About five o'clock the same afternoon I saw his private carriage burned by the populace in the street opposite the Hotel de Ville; they brought it from his house in the Rue de Bielamont for that purpose. Many parties of the National Guard are parading the streets with flags, inscribed " Sitretti Liberal," " Simet6 Pub Btc. The National Guard has full possession of ell the gates anti military posts in the town, without any exception whatever, and also of the palaces of the Prince of Orange, &c. At half past ten at night I brought my luggage to the coach-office, with a guard of four men. In pass• tug near the Park more than a hundred shots were suddenly fired—l. could not learn by whom, or at what ; but I suppose they were fired by persons eon• tested in the Perk at the soldiers stationed before the King's palace. I left the same night, and during my short stay at 0146;41 learned from the best authority, that all the troops, beiginos at well as Dutch, had retired tat side the town, or to the'r barracks, and bed left the protection of the town and palaces to the Nn• tional Guard. Several manufactories have been burned, or other wise damaged, in the neighbourhood—calico-print works burned, and the machinery in others dt!stroyed. It is said there will be 10,000 troops fi otn Holland at the gates of Brussels on Friday, and that in a conflict with the people from forty to fifty men had been killed or wounded ;—amongst the killed are two of the new Royal Guard. One day, last Saturday or Sunday, number of placards were posted on the trees near the park, as follows : " Aujnurilhui feu d'artifice ! Demain Illumination !! Aprev tlemain Revolution! !!" M. de Potter is at Paris, and from thence ho wrote a letter of advice to the King, which letter was printed in the Courrier des Pays Bat of Sunday the 22d instant. M. de Potter has also written a letter to the people exciting them to strong measures —at least so it is said. The letter, it is also said, was. printed in Paris, and dropped about the streets of Brussels secretly; but of all this I have no personal knowledge, not having seen one of them. When I left Brussels the tri-eolouro flag was flying on the Hotel de Ville. It had been fixed there by the populace early in the morning. (From a Correspondent of the Times.) " BRUSSELS, AUG. 26. " This would appear to be the commencement of an era of revolutions. I left Paris on Tuesday evening, believing that I had seen the happy termi nation of mat, and, behold, I have Olen into the beginning of another. On arriving at Halle, about three leagues south of • Brussels, this morning, we heard that the people had risen last night into re volt, had proceeded in greet (wee to the house of NI. Livry Bagnano, the conductor of an obnoxitm* Government Journal; had broken his windows Ad' doors, had entered awl demolished his furniture, and bad either burnt his books and papers, or thrown them into the wreets. The rioters had first shown symptoms of disorder and violence at the theatre, where an obnoxious piece was played; but it was evident that their tumult was not a theatrical affair. From the beginning it had politics for its object, and a change in the Go vermnent for its end. The cries which were heard from its leaders showed plainly the cause of the movement. The cries were--' Down with the Dutch Government'—' Death to the Dutch Mi nisiry'---4 Viva la Pattie,' Viva. la Revolution .Prancaise—' Viva Napoleon ll.' ro the music of these shouts the populace proceeded to disarm the battalion of Pompiers, who willingly gave up their muskets, offering even their uniform, if 'their conquerors chose. They attacked likewise the dif ferent corps du garde of the regular troops, and mastered them. At day-break the troops of the line in garrison endeavoured to disperse the groups which had now got arms, and, in addition to the damage which they had done during the night, had set fire to the house of the Minister of Justice, Van Maatien, in the Petit &Won, had entered and de molished the hotel of the Governor of the capital, and had attacked th e re sid ence o f t h e commandant of the garrison, in t h e square called L e G ren d S o - Won. The troops of the line, in endeavouring to disperse the mob, had killed nine persons, five of whose bodies I have seen. " When our diligence entered Brussels at six o'clock this morning, the people were all either in the streets conversing anxiously in greater or smaller groups, or standing at their doors asking news, or leaning out of their windows, surveying the multi tudes who flitted below them, and who were per petually bringing them tidings of the wider spread of the insurrection. It was evident that some great event agitated the mass, and that they were uncertain what part they would take in the drama which had opened. They had continued in this state of vigilant alarm during the night, hearing the firing of miss. ketry, and the cries of the mob at a distance. Our conductor was warned not to proceed through the market place, his usual route, where he was told there was fighting, but to take a turn round the town, to avoid the danger to which a more direct passage would have exposed us. "About seven o'clock great numbers of the people were armed, and had compelled the Governor to give them the keys-of the Hotel de Ville, to obtain the depot of muskets which had been taken formerly from the Garde Communule. This► Garde Com munsle was at► institution similar in almost every re spect to the Garde Nationale of France. Some of its members had retained their muskets and their uniform. In this uniform several appeared about six or seven o'clock, and were hailed as leaders. If I am well, informed, the Colonel of this civic force bus promised to lead them. I have conversed with several of them, who say that they appear on the present occasion, not to overturn the Government, but to preserve the city from pillage by the mob, This, however, cannot be the object of the majo- rity, who have commended the ilnyal arms to be pulled down, and who are crying ' A Gas des op presseurs: " The troops, instead of allowing themselves to be beaten or destroyed in detail, es in Paris, retired within their barracks, till reinforcements were sent for. About tee o'clock the whole garrison of Brussels, consisting of gensdarmes, troops of the line, and cavalry, drew up in the Place Royale in front of the palace, and looking to the perk. They have remained in his position till two o'clock (the hour at which I now write.) Several detachments have joined them from the posts in the neighbour. hood. The whole force now ranged below me (seen froth the Hotel de Bellevue) cannot yet ex ceed 1,600 men. In the present excited state of the public mind, u much greater force should have occupied the capital. " Detachments of the civic force, with drums beating and tri-coloused flags flying, have passed by she assembled troops to take possession of the dif ferent posts in the neighbourhootL No resistance has been offered them, nor has any, parley taken place between the military and the citizens. The work of demolition goes on in the city. Four or five of the houses of the authorities are now in flames. The furniture of the Minister of Justice and of the Commandant of the place, being thrown. out of the windows, is blazing in the squares of the Petit and Grand Sablon. " No person of mime or consequence has yet ap peared to direct the movements of the revolu tionists. The hatred of Dutch sway seems deep and general among all classes ; hut the actual rioters are chiefly those•who complain of high taxes and want of bread. Expres*es have been sent off to the Hague, where the King and Ministers now reside Chy the law which makes Brussels end that town their rod dence every alternate year), but no answer has yet been received. " Wh e n the news reaches Liege, Ghent, and Antwerp, similar mov e m ents are expected. No assistance in troops can, therefore, be expected from those towns. Indeed it seemed mast probable, to persons acquainted with the state of public opinion in Belgium, that Liege would b e the leader in the insurrection, as soon as the French had shaken all the Bourbons. " The shops have been shut up during the whole day, or, rather, have not opened. Even the churches. winch in Roman Catholic countries are always open, have not received the faithful this forenoon. The streets are not yet unpaved, but trees have been cut down to form barricades. " The thing most dreaded here bysensible people is the approach of Prussian troops, which would justify the Belgians in demanding succours from France, and thus lead to u general war. lIALF.PAST TWO O'CLOCK. " The troops are still drawn up in the Place Itoyale,rtod are receiving a few reinforcements from the country. The work ordemalitiori goes forward unresisted in the city. The Governor and Com-- matidant have fled. There is a strong belief that the Betgie portion of the troops will fraternise with LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 30, 1830. The spirit of the late revolution in Paris has extended itself with the rapidity of wild-fire to Brussels. This is just what might have been anticipated. No one dreamed for an instant that the revolution would have been confined to France. That country merely took the lead, set the fashion, as it were, in the full and per fect conviction that every nation throughout the continent, which was not in the enjoyment of constitutional freedom, would speedily follow the example. The revolution at Brussels is part and parcel of its predecessor at Paris. It originates in the same cause, with this dif ference, that the King of the NETHERLANDS is not one-twentieth part so guilty as CHARLES the Tenth, and that consequently the present insurrection of his subjects is less deserving of justification. His enmity towards a Free Press has been the greatest fault that the King of the NETHERLANDS has yet committed. And even this was ra►her a blunder than a crime, which his MAJESTY Mon perceived, and for which he has- tcned to make reparation, though. unfortunately for his own interest, no: to the extent and in the spirit which might have been expected, and was indeed called for by his subjects. We do not think—though perhaps "our wish is father to that thought"—that it is yet too late to avert the flital consequences that must ensue from a general rising of the people. Even now, at the eleventh hour, a slight change of system may do much towards reconciling the Belgians to their Government. But immediate decision is requisite. The time is past for temporizing or vacillating policy. The Executive must project and execute at one and the same moment, or— they are lost. As we do not conceive the Belgians to have such pressing cause for dissatisfaction with their King as France, so neither are we so earnest in their behalf. Their present proceedings carry more the air of a partial insurrection, than of a general constitutional scheme for asserting their rights and privileges. There seems to he no organization, no defined plans on the part of the people. Still by whatever name it may be called, the commotion is deeply momentous, as a sign if the times. Betides if persevered in, it most unquestionably bring forward the Pruesians who must be already trembling for their Rhenish provinces,' and thus lead to a war with France, to whose protection the Belgians would naturally entrust themselves. This will place PHILIPPE the First in a most awkward dilemma. For months to come he will need peace to consolidate his own power, as well as that of the Government, and, above all, to reconcile contending factions who would spring up throughout France with tenfold energy at the ba:e mention of war ; yet, at the same in►e, he willnot like—and if he did, his chivalrOus leople win not—to see Belgium, which threw ierself upon his honour, and which is still French in heart and soul, in language end i n interests, overrun by the invading troops o f Prussia. But it is to he hoped that the firmness and discretion of the Execu- tive will be able to quell the insurrection of the Belgians. It is to be hoped that the 'CMG will concede a little and thus preserve all, warnea by the example of CITA R1,F,8 X., which is worth whole volumes or history. Tor full particulars up to the latest period of the proceedings at Brussels, Ghent, and elsewhere, we refer our readers to another column. Since the above was written we have received the Courrier des Pays Bas of Saturday, which contains a spirited address to the Burgher Guard, under whose Government Brussels is placed for the present, as well as a proclamation o f the. Burgomaster and the Echoing, in which th e y announce that one of the most pressing municipal taxes is repealed, and warn the citi zens to refrain from pillage and unnecessary violence. The Journal du Gaud is furi ous against what it calls " the servile spirit of imitation" that has displayed itself in Brussels, and seizes the opportunity with a shrewd eye to business, of impressing on its readers the advantages that would accrue from makiit client theta pital of Be'gimp. is excessively indignant that the KING has shown so much favour to Brussels, and, comp ratively speaking, so little to Ghent. The in surrection, as this journal seems to imply, is a thing of little moment compared with such uu. due partiality on the part of his MAJESTY. adds, and other accounts corroborate the state ment, that tranquillity has been restored at Brussels. How long will this last ? (From the Courier des Paya Bar of Saturday, Aug. 28,) BRUSSELS, AUG. 27. LIBERTY ! ORDER! ! UNION! ! ! The mouture, a municipal tax in Brus•cli, Ita. disappeared; this is a material and local satisfac tion. It is still necessary to keep with perseverance whist is demanded; with liberty in all things um: for all, order and security which make libe►ty loved ; that we desired the union of all good citizens for the public good. Let this will be Sacred; let us abide by it as an oath. Let it be unchangeable ; let us hold !0 it as a condition of our existence. M.

The penal responsibility of Ministers ouglw to he speedily organiseil by a law. Where evil can be committed with impunity. The Charter is a false hood, and liberty a vain word. We turn our eyes towards the throne as citizens devoted to their country, devoted to order and liberty, without which the national independence will be incessantly endangered. We ask with con fidence, with respect, but also with firmness, that the King shall proceed. in concert with us ; this is also the spirit of the fundamental law. We conjure all the inhabitant , , who by their rank in society can exercise some influence over the la bouring classes, to intervene promptly. Let them give to the WorkMen,employment, even useless em ployMent, if it ,cannot be otherwise. All who do not now return to order are guilty. We yesterday related the events of the night, they continued during the day, and the Burgher Guard,. are now masters of the. whole city. The citizens do their duty, they occupy all the posts, and zealowly watch themselves over the public security, which they guarantee. Its the morning the fire of mthketry was almost uninterrupted, blood flowed, and this resistuece of the troops, by exasperating the people, nece , sarily animated and prolonged the combat. Accordingly the people continually cried to the troops—" Retire —Surrender—Return to your barracks, and promise not to fire any more!" It must be said, to the honour of our soldiers, and especially the officers, they are Belgians, and it grieved their hearts to shed the blond of their fellow citizens, their friends, their bretlnen. They listened to these repeated exhorta tions; by degrees they were seen to cease firing. and to ask that their neutrality should be respected, on condition of their not interfering. The contest then became less violent, and there was every rea son to expect, if not a termination, at least a truce to the combat. As early as eight o'clock in the morning, the principal citizens were joining the Officers of the Civic Guard in the barrack of the iittnemeinde c — They called for arms, which were 'given them, and in a short time paroles - of the Burgher Guard were organized, and appeared in the streets. They inter posed between the combatants, and relieved several posts which were occupied by the firemen and the troops of the garrison. About eleven o'clock a proclamation of the Ma gistrates was elistributed and posted up, announcing the abolition of the mouture, still existing at Brus sels as a municipal tax, and inviting all the citizens ►o take arms, and provide for the maintenance of the public security. This promise 'concerning the mouture 'was in tended to calm the inferior classes, irritated at the increase of the price of corn anti bread, anti who might have proceeded to pillage in the midst of the inevitable confusion. of an insurreatitm. Meantime about noon, the Burgher Guard, whose numbers continually increased, patrolled the city in all direc tions. There was no more firing. The troops had ceased all attacks in the streets; . they fell back to wards the King's Palace, where the Royal Guard essemlned, or retired into their barracks, ceasing all resistance. Some soldiers were, however, obliged to fire from a window of the barrack on an assem blage of the people, but this lasted only a few mo ments. About one o'clock only a few musket shots were heard singly, and for the most part fired in the alt. The troops, in order to avoid every effusion of blood, had prudently made peace. The Magistrates by a new proclamation had engaged that they should remain in their barracks. They again con fided the safety of the city to the armed inhabitants, and promised that the public wishes should be Sub jected ton serious examination, and speedily satisfied. About three o'clock the ancient standard of Bra bent was displayed on the Town-hall, and detach ments of the Burgher guard carried it about the streets. It is red, orange, and black. The three colours are disposed horizontally, the red above, the orange in the middle. This banner ought to become truly tuitional. The orange cockade has disappeared, besides that is only the colour of a family and not of a people. The oi-coloured flag, blue, white, end red, is Dutch and French. The red, yellow, and black it Belgian, and National at the same time : the black would be for us, the orange for the dynasty, the red for Holland. During the whole afternoon the patrols continued to traverse the city. All the armed men who were met with were embodied, and their presence became necessary, because vagabonds began to show them selves to take advantage of the disorder, which, they would have excited, and then proceed to pillage. The firmness and activity of the citizens prevented that. misfortune. The inhabitants then appeared in crowds in the streets, where they met with no obstacle. The houses and shops remained closed, hut it was through an excess of precaution. Ladies were seen walking about every where • the crowd repaired in preference to the street De la Madeleine, and to the Sablo n , 'to see the houses, hotel of Van Maanen, an d t h e house of Libry Bagma), which are completely gutted and demolished. In the evening and during, the night, the houses in all the streets were Muni nated. The Burgher Guard did duty every where. Already in the afternoon detachments were every where seen with standards bearing the motto, Liberty ! Security ! There armed citizens saluted each other with bravos, and here they met and shook hands with cries of " Liberty for ever." This admirable activity, this organisation, which is still very imperfect, hut spontaneous and rapid, every where produced enthusiasm. The Burgher Guards where stationed at a ll t h e gates, acting as police, placed sentinels and prevented all disorders. Some of them mere seen carrying to prison drunken men who were attempting to steal. The night passed without disorder, there was only that agitation which was natural after such events. An attempt was made to force the entrance of the street of t he Museum, in order to go and destroy the rich toilet of the Princess Marianne, hut. the Burgher Guard apposed. it. Order and tranquillity are now every where restored. The popular anger is appeased nothing more is asked but to see the Government better informed of its true interest, and at length re- spect the voice of a people, who possess in a high degree the gift of patience, but have never suffered any one to drive them to extremity, or openly to sport with their rights, their interest, or their .just The Guard temxine tinder arms and continues to do duty. There' are general complaints of the the people, or at least decline an active part in a con test which seems every hour more inevitable. " THREE O'CLOCK.

I have no habit of estimating numbers, hut should think that in the Place Royale we have now 3,000 troops of all arms.
