PRANCE, CHAMBER OF Auau*T The order of the day was the discussion of the law project relative to the oath of public functioneries, Count Duleitichage coesidered that the Peerage being bereditary, was one of the main points of its existence; this privilege was totacked by the laW in question; the Chamber of Deputies- bad con e mitted so error. • The - privilege of hereditary Peerage. might certainly -be - ettacked but it should be so ,by a law well considered and proposed by one of the three branches or :the legislature. The Noble Peer then examiner} the difference which existed b etw een the functions of a Peer and those of x Deputy. In his opinion it was the duty nrDepeties to sit in the Chamber, because they were appointed by their estr atituents to watch over ail that concerns them to the Peers, it Was a right which they might use at their pleasure. When a Deputy was absent, his absence was prejudicial to his constituents; it wits slot so with a Peer of France. -The Cliettaber of Deputies might therefore consider as Whig resigned his post any one of its members, who, during a cer tido time, had abstained from. attending ; but it could rtf4t inflict the same punishment. upon a Peer of France. The only right it could exercise was to declare that the Peers should not take their seats till they had token the oath, hit there wits a Still more striking reason—namely, that a Deputy who had been declared to have forfeited his seat might be re elected. • He could then take his seat again, on taking the oath, but this was not the case with the Peet's. Ike concluded by proposing that the Chamber should strike out the provision relative to the Peerage. The Minister of Public Instruction, in litn.Wer to the assertion that the rights of the Peerage could not be attacked, said that this might he true, if the mea sure were unjust ; but it was impossible to grant to the. Peerage a dispensation whirls -roue of the three powers hod a tight to enjoy, If such a courseiwere adopted, there would be two Chambers of Peers, one belonging to the present goyernment, loathe other to another government; this consideration was conclusive. He therefore voted for maintaining the provision in question, '- The Duke de Cues thought that the delay of ORO Month . was not stiflicient Count Roy inquired wit, titer in case a Peer should not have taken the .oath within the time prescribed, hi. successor would he received immediately. After some discussion, in which the Duke de Broglie, the Duke de Crillon, Count Portal's, end Baron Seguier,. took part, it wes resolved that the successor should be received immediately, without prejudice to the effects of the law to be proented to 1831. Previous to the ballot, the President invited the Count de St. Prie.t to road a proposition, which he had just laid on the table, for repealing the sacrilege law. This proposition was ordered to be ►aken into consideration, and its discussion fixed for Friday. The whole of the law Wi►h then put sad adored by a majority of 87 against 11.—Adjourned. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, AUGUST 30, The President took the chair at one o'clock, and read n letter front U. de Guernissar, tentlei ing hiir resignation.- 7 Referred tothe MiniSter of the interior. The order of the clay was the prilect of a laiso on the mcde of providing for the elections now vacant. M. de Salverte expressed his doubts, that the project would satisfy the desires of the country. The Committee had sought to improve it, and had even introduced some important modifications; but there were others which seemed necessary to be added to the provisional law about to be voted, The amount of taxes required to become an elector should be fixed et 200 francs. AS to the Deputies, the only qualification necessary was the confidence of the electors. However, it would be well to fix for the present the qualification at 500 francs. Instead of dangers being likely to arise out of these changes, 1w (tbellow. Deputy) saw nothing but.. advantages; for the changes were called for by the Charter, anti looked for by the people. These changes would make known to the Chamber the effects of the new Charter by the new electioni. M. Mauguin inquired *bother the preservation of the present Chamber was legal ? The Chamber of Peers Was mutilsted ? the Government of Charles N. was overthrown; and when the whole system was subverted, could a part subsist alone P A diffe rent view Would lead to inconsistencies. Some de partments were Abut to exercise the rights granted to' them by the new Constitution, end by the side of a member elected under tho old system would be seated on& who derived his seat from the new system, and the ChaMber would thus be formed of different elements. M. Rambuteau said that a new and complete law would require mature deliberation, which It was im possible to accomplish till the Chamber was complete M. Da Podenint was of opinion that it would be useful to grunt the right of voting to all citizens who, by their capacity, were calle d to be jurymen, excepting, however, functionurick who received salary, and who were alwayi dependent on Govern ment, when they did not otter the guarantee of certain amount of taxes to qualify them for voting. M. Benjamin Constant was desirous that the ChaMber should be made complete, in order that a definitive law of elections might be enacted. Matiguin was of opinion that the mission of th e lion. Deputies was extinct. When they saved France by expelling a dynasty which had oppressed her for fifteen year', and Which had fired upon her citizens for three successive days, they certainly ex eeeded the limits of their authority; but when th e streets of the capital were covered with blood, when despotism was repulsed on every side,' and citizens were falling beneath the bullets fired upon them, the Deputies had a genuine warrant for their 'proceedings. M. Mauguin replied, that the lute Oovernmein had fallen beneath the blows of the Parisians, and the Deputies bad been contsequent!y culled titian to vote a new. Charter ; their acts had beett approved by the country, and it was never his (the floa. Deputy's) intention to call in question the legality of what they had hitherto done. M. Dupla sen. said, " You are either invested with full powers, or you have none at all. If the latter, you have no more power to limit the age for an elector at nyetity , five years than you hove to make a law that a candidate fora Member is qua lified at thirty years. The Um% Dilinty thin went into a lengthened apology for the acts of the Chamber, and the vation4 instances Of eourette it had displayed, and concluded by saYing,'" No, gentlemen, w e will not quit oar seats. Wellave given liberty to Prance, ant) it belongs to us to maintain it;' if the revolution be good, we are the only parties called upon t o Born. plete it. Let us continue with the same spirit. We hove said such-modifications in the law are necessary; let us revise the law, and make the modifications re. Lired, proceeding al way s withprudence and firmness, et us consummate the revolution, and we shall de. serve web of our country. If some chttnours be raised against us now, France and posterity will . justify The Chamber then went through the law project article by article, and various ameadments which were made were rejected, and the articles adopted, as were several additional att;Cles Mating to forma. lilies at elections, which had been proposed by the ( tmornitree. The whole of the law project was then Put, snit tarried by a majority of 231 agittt 12. Adjourned. - (Funn 411uni(eur,t 4 )f Ttiesday, Aug. SI.) PAWS, Auti. 30.

(From the 1144,ager des Chambrcs, dated Wednerd4y.) ExctiANtin OP PARIS, AtRI. 30.—N0 important transactions have tsken place in our . funds. The chief object of attention were the ducats, which du dined considerably ; though we arc assured that there is no positive news of any troubles in Italy.— At the end there were so many sellers of ducats, that they became really unsaleable. The decline in other public securities was trilling. The Three per Until. fell 30e. below the closing price of Saturday ; the Five per Cents. rose 15r.; Ducats fell two per cent.; the Reete Perpetuelle as much. It is again affirmed that our Government received yesterday the official recognition on the putt of Eng land. There have been large sales of Spanish stock. (From the Afestager des Chalnbras of Wednesday.) We transcribe several letters from Algiers, which allude to the inconceivable astonishment which the news of our happy revolution caused to the army of Africa and to the fleet, as well as the enthusiasm which the certainty of it produced when the tri coloured flag, so rich in gl , rious recollections, re appeared ar the front of our battalions and on the poop of our ships. Since the 11th they have known all at Algiers, but it was not until the 17th that the national flag was displayed ; but it appears that the Admiral and General-in-Chief had agreed to this delay, from fear that the English, as in 1815, should seize the oppo, tastily to capture our single vessels. We are assured, by a letter from Paris, that M. de Bourmont, after much remonstrance, retired on board the Admiral's vessel. *1 his news must be posterior to the 18th, the date of the letters which we publish. We perceive that the Gazelle de France and the Quotidienne only devote two lines to the review of the National Guards. For these two journals 60,000 citizens under arms are probably but a hand ful of factious persons, who merit no attention. A commercial letter from Bale, dated August 27, says—" There is a report of important events having taken place at Naples. It is said that a revolution has broken out there ; that the Swiss regiment of Sowenberg was dispersed, and that the Royal Fa mily had been arrested. A national guard had been immediately formed, and patrols ware traversing the city with cries of Vive be Liberto. " We give this news as we received it ; but we may state that it requires confirmation. On 'Change to-day- it had a great effects on the ducats. As the King was passing a few days ago through the Court of the Louvre, conversing with M. Fun taite, the architect, on the new works to be executed, he was recognized; and the crowd pressing round him, shouted " Vive le Itoi 1" " I thank you," said the King, " for these marks of affection, but I beg of you to let me attend to my business."

PARIS, AUG. 30. The Moniteur of Tuesdsy contains the following important official article Lord Stuart (le Roth say has reeeived.from his government his creden tials as Ambassador to the King of the French."— . . The Moniieur has also several Royal ordinances, appointing various civil and jedicial officers. We hear that the Duke of Orleans, accompanied by general Lafayette, will shortly proceed on a tour to visit every town in France, and inspect all the National Guards of the kingdom. It is said that the whole of the masonic lodges in PATIN have decided on giving a banquet to General Lafayette, and expressing to him their gratitude for his noble conduct during the events of July. Apprehensions begin to be entertained at Naples; end en insurrection is shortly expected to break out at Salerno and Averse. .The Government place no confidence in the corps of artillery at Naples, which alone could offer effective resistance to the people; in consequence, the artillerymen of the new Castle, del Carmine, and St. Mine, have been relieved by others who came from Captta. The public places are guarded by the Swiss, who are greatly diseou. raged since the bite events in France lutve beers known. It is even said that several officers of that corps have applied for their dismissal. The King might still prevent the effusion of blood: if he would keep his oath, and re-establish the Constitu tion, the people would be completely devoted to him. It is said the Queen of France has written a letter on the subject to his Majesty, and hopes are enter ((tined that the King will follow the counsel of his august sister.—Conslitationnel. The Berlin State Gazelle, which publishes the late events at Paris with great minuteness, gives to hit Majesty Louis Philip I. the title of King of the French.. By commercial hitters from St. Petershurgh to the 18th August, we learn that the recent events at Paris were known there to so lute a date as the tith. This rapid communication was effected by my of Lubeck and the Baltic. It appears to be the general opinion that these events will not change the relit dolls between Prance and Russia. Comtnerchl transactions are ellected us usual, a►rd several vessels have sailed for French ports. (Frotn the Times Correspondent.) PARIS, AUG. Lord Stuart had a long audience - of the King yes terday, and, as I am informed,: gave, on the part of his Britunnie Majesty, the ussurance of the recognis tion of the new dynasty. 'the French express warm gratification at England having led the way in this step. The popular feeling here is fast merging into quiescence. The nightly groups of noisy and some times armed people have dwindled into small parties of boys, who still chant the Marseillois Hymn ocea , sionally in the ??leis Royal at night-fall. - Patrols of the National Guard p trade the streets at night, and the city is quite tranquil. The King's palm !aril has increased into something like enthusiasm since Sunday, when he,. both in his addresses to the soldiers, and letter to Lafayette, so entirely identi fied himself with the principles and feelings of the National Guard, and linked his present sympathies with past recollections of popular rather than royal events. He sees every body, and disregards state appearances; he rises at five o'clock in the morn ing, and is incessantly occupied with public busi ness until twelve o'clock at eight; every func- . tionary is at his post, and the bureaus are in the most active occupation, in reconstructing, or rather remodelling, the whole of the departmental business. I have reason to know that the accounts which have been received by the Government from Foreign-- Powers are favourable to the recognition of the King of France, and that even Spain and Russia have been very pacific on this occasion. The proses verbal taken by the public dicer upon the old Duke of Bourbon's body, has been registered in the archives, but it is not published. It appears that this Prince was sadly annoyed in the earlier part of last week by some of the ex-func tionaries of Charles X., who had by letters, and in one instance personally, repudiated his claim to the name of Conde, reminding him how gloriously it had been sustained by his father, who had in the former revolution cast his shield before the fallen fortunes of the Bourbons, and made it the rallying point of the Royalists, until the throne was re established ; again quitting the capital, though borne down by inibesity and the weight of years, with Louis XVIII., during the hundred days of Na poleon, rather than compromise his allegiance. Worried thus at one side by those infatuated bigots of the old Court, and on the other pressed to come in and take the oath, as he had promised on the previous Saturday, to the Orleans dynasty, the individual members of which were his personal favourites, he weakly rushed out of existence,,to escape these eon- Meting importunities. He had promised to repair to Paris to take the oath, on the morning when he was found dead in his chamber. On the previous night, he desired his valet not to enter his apartment as early as usual ; the man obeyed his master's order, but when two or three hours had elapsed after his usual time, and he had knocked repeatedly without obtaining an answer, he then, with the assistance of others, burst through the panels of the door, and found the unhappy Prince suspended by his own Heck-kerchief, from the iron central fastening of the window : there happened to be a step to this window, which just made the latch sufficiently high for the purpose : he used a stool to stand upon, and then to kick down ; but from th e swo ll en and black mike upon his uncles and legs, he must have suffered dreadfully, from their convulsive knocking against the edge of the window step. He was in his ordi nary clothes, and the body quite cold; so that there can be no doubt of his having committed the act whim his servant had retired on the previous night. Ills will is in favour of the younger branches of the Orleans family, with a life annuity for an English woman with whom be lived, and who slept in the house at the time. Y. MISERABLE DEATH OF A LADY. A Coroner's inquest was held on Tuesday even ing, by Joseph Carter, Esq., Coroner for Kent, and a Jury composed of the moat respectable inhabitants of the neighbourhood, at the Fountain Tavern, Broadway, Deptford, to inquire into the circum stances attending the death of a lady named Eliza beth Guillott, who would, at the demise of H relative, have come into possession of property amounting to nearly half a million. _ Tfie Jury having been sworn, proceeded to a mi. serable house in Mill-lane, occupied by a man and his wife, named Hetherington, who obtain their livelihood by letting out beds to poor weary travel lers at threepence and fourpenee per night. Upon entering a back attic, the Jury were horror-struck at the spectacle that met their view. In this small room there were four beds; in one of them there was a poor famishing woman, with her two children, in the last stage of existence from the small-pox; in another was a wretched-looking old man, and in a third was stretched the body of the deceased lady; she was dressed in a silk gown, and wore a Leghorn bonnet. The following facts were detailed in evidence:-- The unfortunate deceased resided with her parents an Blackheath-hill, and, being rather flighty in her mind, every care arid attention was paid her. On Friday morning last she left her home for the purpose of taking an airing on the Heath, and never returned. Her absence created the greatest alarm, and search was made for her day after day, ineffectu ally. It subsequently was discovered that on leaving home she proceeded to Deptford, and remained at the Fountain from Friday till : Monday. On that day, having paid her bill, she went to tire miserable lodging-house, kept by Hetherington and his wife, and engaged a bed (the bed on .which she was found) for the night ; when she made the en gagement, as is the usual practice, she paid down tire charge, fourpence, fur her bed. After thus having arranged her lodging she went away, saying she would return at nine o'clock. ,J3O. tween seven and eight the deceased called at the shop of tichemist and druggist, to whom she was known, and requested an ounce and a half of lauda num. The chemist had sold her that ,quentity several times before, but he .had not seen her for some months, and he therefore supplied her with the required quantity, but did not know her name, but her person was well known to him, and lie. kn e w her to be an habitual laudanum taker and opium eater. When he gave her the laudanum he said, " You take .a great deal of laud anum, Miss; " she said " Yes," and in his presence she swallowed some with the greatest unconcern, anti then put the phial with the remainder in her pocket, and went a , lay' She then returned to her wretched abode, and was shewn to her pallet. she merely kid on the outside of the bed, and shortly idler she requested the landlady to procure h e i h a lf a pint of porter. The porter was fetched, an d the deceased emptied the remaining ounce of harden:um into it, and. drank it nearly eft lii a few minutes after, such was the powerful effects of the draught that she Wag seized with stupor; her wretched companion (lire woman with the two dying children) alarmed the house, and Dr. Green was sent for, who, the moment he entered the room, discovered her to be labouring under the powerful effects of laudanum. He resorted to the stomach pump, and every other means, but the un fortunate lady expired in it few minutes after in the arms of the medical gentlem an . , It was proved by a lady, a friend of the family, t h at the deceased was in the habit of taking lan danum in large quantities, a nt i u short ti me s i nce , whilst at a watering place, she expended 104 in the purchase of laudanum, which she consumed in a short period. The . Jury returned a verdict," That the deceased poisioned herself, being at the time in a state o f mental derangement." The unhappy lady was about 3() years of age. lIRTISSELS. (From the Times Correspondent.) " BRUSSELS, AWL 30, lIIONDAt MGR* " I shall leave you in a great measure dependent on the public .Journals for the minute particulars of events since the date of my last letter, Friday, the 27th. In feet, the monotonous gloom of the last four days has been varied with little to excite a great interest beyond the immediate scene, where hundreds of indi,idual instanees, that appear trifling the moment they are passed, keep up the popular lever. But lam more anxious to fix the attention of your readers on the principles of the movements now in play, than to wear it out by frivolous details. I hope my former communications explained to you the nature of public feeling here dming the prelude to the growth of the revolt, for sUch it now is in the amplest sense pf the word. Going back to the ignoble source of the riots of Wednesday night and ' Thursday, it cannot be doubted that it sprang from ' the desire, so studiously excited among_the people, of following the example of. Franee, and in the ab surd notion of a Common cause with that glorious Country. Among the active instigators of the riot were more than one Frenchman of notoriously bad character. The prevalent cries wete—' Vail. la Relic . )/talon!' Piae lu hepablitineP i fr ive Apoleant A proclamation from the Regency throws the im putations of these disgraceful scenes entirely on strangers; amid they must have been of the very lowest class. But the pillage, the burning, the forced loans, the petty plundering, was strictly Bel gian; and as an impartial looker-on, I can by no means confirm the eulogy which the patriot prints have lavished on the purity of the rabble. At first an at tempted imitation of the Parisian populace seemed the order of the night, us far as breaking lamps, un pitying a spot or two in the principal streets, cutting down half a dozen trees for btarricades, and de• facing every word and signconnected with royalty. In the skirmishes with the troops, considerable bravery was displayed, and a resolute coolness even in pick ing up and carrying off their (lead and wounded, which generally turns the heads of an infuriated mob. But beyond these points all resemblance ceased. A system of open robbery instantly broke out. Just after one of the sharpest encounters, that in the Canterstein, and while a dying man was silently picked up at my side, by a couple of his comrades, another ruffian, with a brass-barreled pistol in his hand, asked me for money. I excused myself from compliance, not choosing to be seen, as it might have been Imagined, exciting the mob Many persons on the first two days were forced to contribute to these armed beggars, who went the rounds. One gentleman, with two ladies on his arms, wits stopped as late as Saturday at noon, on the Boulevard of Waterloo; but he very properly resisted the demand, and handed over the highway man to a passing patrol. There was something re markably perfidious in the conduct of the fellows who destroyed Mr. Wilson's manufactory at Steel on Thursday night. He purchased their promise of forbearance ut the price of 300 or 400 florins; but they no sooner got the money than they com menced burning and destroying to the amount of 1.5,000/. worth of property. In other cases they behaved quite as badly. In an attempt on another factory they were beaten off, nith a loss of several killed. In citing these few traits, lam rather wan dering from my intention; but you will not find them in the opposition newspapers, and of the two Ministerial Journals, one has altogether ceased to appear, and the other was not published during the first days on which these things occurred. These revolting instances, in the very heat and animation of riot, are easily accounted for by the absence of all the ennobling inspiration which urged on the French. " But the' moment the respectable citizens flew to tiring, rather tardily, unless their object was to let the rabble reach those certain lengths,' which are in these e.ises very uncertain indeed, the whole scene was chuned. Nothing could be mor e ad mirable than t he promptness and the discipline which were every where evident. Thousands of men, well dressed and well appointed, turned out and became organized, in an inconceivably short time, without bustle or swaggering, but maintain• ing a most excellent countenance. The fist object was to gain possession of the various military posts, and reduce the military to neutrality. That they accomplished with a facility somewhat surprising, unless the commanders had received orders to sub mit, or that they sympathised with the citizens. To put down the rabble was the next step, and the un fortunate canaille, so actively set forward at the first, so quietly allowed to burn and plunder for dozen hours, and with whom the Bourgeois acted In their early formation into armed bands, (I saw them mixed together, and behaving with equal courage in one successful attack on a Corps de Garde) were dispersed, seized, and imprisoned, and fired on by these very Bourgeois, as soon as private property became endangered. The killing of three or four of them in the Place Royale, on Friday evening, completely put the whole mass of the populace hepa tic-combat. They have not been since visible, and have either returned to their work, or scattered over the country, or towards other towns, in the hope, of new disorders. " Up to this moment comparative tranquillity has been preserved. The duties of the town and gar rison have been admirably performed by the Garde Bourgeoise. The shops have been partially opened to-day, end many tradesmen have resumed their work. No appearance of disorder is manifested, but still the mingled air of gloom, anxiety, and re solution, gives to the whole city a most serious tone. The garrison, horse and foot, maintains its ; position, bivouacked in the Palace Gardens, and in the large spaces in front, and on the Boulevard imme diately in the rear. Numerous patrols of the Garde Bourgeoise, cavalry and infantry, continue to pace the streets and firobourgs. Two pieces of artillery are stationed at the Hotel de Ville. Numerous tra vellers are leaving the place in ell directions; and ninny couriers, expresses, and officers passing and repassing the gates towards the Antwerp road. The number of departures may be judged from the fact of near 60 persons (43 of them English) hav ing left one hotel in one day. The Prince of Orange and Prince Frederick are now known to be advancing gradually, with a considerable force; and with every new report of theirepproach, the reso lution of the people seems to rise. Tho usan d s ap ply for arms more than arc to be procured. Pikes are forging in large quantities, as I am informed; and assuredly the spirit is general, that without concessiOflx, the Prince will not enter the. place u " The departure of the deputation for the Hague y e sterday morning, colms the agitation a little. The c haracter, of all the five Deputies are excellent for ° 4 e i s to l s i e n tl 4 . ' moderatien, good sense, and honest designs. The petition, of which they are the bearers, is temperate, andgeneral in its substance ; but the enclosed list of demands, which has been privately circulated, w ill give a notion of what is required as the only basis of submission. Two things, however, imme diately acceded to would, I believe, satisfy all and produce innnediute tranquillity ; the dismissal of Van Maarten, and the prompt assembling of the States- General. It is then alone that the other items can be considered fairly and calmly. It would be idle to speculate on the conduct of the King at this crisis. He certainly received the first news of what passed in such a way as was to be expected from so brave, so humane, and so truly liberal a man. He was affected even to tears : and it is believed he will Make greet concessions to public feeling sooner than risk the horrors of civil war: A thousand opinions are flying as to the disposition of the troops. We must hope that they will not be put to the test. " One main pnint.is certain--not a man now dreams of support hold Prance, or of a junction with that country. They see the total impossibility of the thing, and the only cry is for redress of grievances, equality with Holland, and fidetity to the King. Yet no attempt has been made to re place the Royal Arms, and the name of the monarch, over the various government establishments, or the shops of the tradesmen, &c. The colours of Dr - ham are still flying; and, though disapproved of by some, they are the badge of every man who carrion' arms. Several English, who joined with the citi zens during the first days, under the 1 a mer of "public safety," and for the protection of private property, have retired now that a symbol of provie. cial independence has been made the rallying sign for a political purpose. Many more who wear the colours in their button-holes will drop out of the ranks (from equally constitutional motives, no douhr) should matters unhappily come to blows. " Taking the whole aspect of affairs in the broadeit view, it is certainly a grand spectacle t) see a people up in arms, deliberately and steadily putting to the test the great constitutional principle of their own sovereignty. Nor will the lover of liberty laMent a mere popular explosion, even accompanied by el cells, which may give a hint to Kings of, the real nature of their mission. But, in the present in stance, I maintain that a revolt in this country was uncalled for, and at all events quite premature. The French revolution must have produced in all the na tions of Europe immense advantages to the people, by the overwhelming impetus given to opinion, and a knowledge of their rights. In Spain and the other despotisms all liberal men will long for 11,e breaking out of the smothered flame of freedom. But here, where so much was already done, where so little re• mined, and where the Monarch most assuredly was nobly about to do it, this lamentable affair has perilled, if not the freedom of the country, or the safety of the throne; at least the feelings of reci procal attachment and good-will, which Moue make their relative condition endurable." " BRUSSELS, TUESDAY. " The crisis approaches. The Prince of Orange is certainly at Villevmde or Lacken, at the head of a large force. The Baron D'lloogvorst, and the Dukes D'Aremberg s a id D'Ur,el, are gone out to h'rn. The citizens breathe nothing but determina tion and defirnee. " BRUSSELS, SIX O'CLOCK. " I have kept my letter open till the last moment, and to some purpose. The deputation to the Piinee (not that to the King) Las just returned, with all that could be expected by the wishers of peare, and by those whose opinions of the King of the Nether lands and hit sons accord with mine. Large con cessions are shade--particulars I cannot enter into. A proclamation is to appear immediately, stating more than enough to quiet the public mind, and satisfy every reasonable man. " G. C." " BRUSSELS, AUG. 31. - -- " There has been no disturbance for . the last two thya in this capital. Yesterday the shops, churches, manufactories, and places of public or private resort, were opened as usual; and but for the numerou. patrols of armed citizens who paraded the streets, or appeared, at short intervals, before the guard pot of the town, IA stranger would not have thought that any thing extraordinary had occurred, or was in agitation. The military still (at this moment four o'clock p.m.) keep their station before the Palace, without reinforcement, or diminution of numbers. They have now had five days of a hard campaign, if that can be called a campaign whero no service has been performed and battle fought. The in fantry in the day-time repose on their knapsacks, and the cavalry on their saddles. The pavement occupied by the dragoons has now become like the floor of a stable, covered with litter, by which both men and horses sometimes profit. The privates have not been allowed to wash or to change their linen since the middle of last week. " The arrival of the deputation sent to the Hague on Sunday, is expected this evening with much im patience, and even anxiety. The people of Brus.els see that they are not supported as they expected to be, by the great body of their eounttymen, and they are not themselves prepared, with the assistance only of one or two great towns or provinces, which par take their sentiments, to risk a civil war. They ob serve a considerable military force at their doors, and they hear of the arrival of a greater in their neighbourhood. Ghent, instead of joining them, de nounces their efforts to obtain common privileges as factious or treasonable. Antwerp likewise holds back, and none but the people of Liege are disposed actively to second their movement. " The non-arrival of the deputation has been to. day a subject of the greater anxiety, as the two Princes, the Prince of Orange and Prince Frederick, have come to the neighbourhood of 'Brulstels, with out publishing any official announcement of the in tections of the King. " Their Royal Highnesses entered Antwerp yes terday morning at ten o'clock, travelling post. They had come to a village, within a league of that city on Sunday night, but hearing that. on the night of Saturday there had occurred serious disturbances in which a considerable number of the lower classes were killed - or wounded, they chose to remain at some distance, till they should learn officially' the state of public feeling among the inhabitants. In stead, therefore, of corning to lodge in the Palace at Antwerp, they took up their quarters ut a country ale-house for Sunday night. " I happened to be at Antwerp yesterday, and saw, or heard described, the whole of their, proceed ings. The Prince of Orange affected extreme po pularity of demeanour. He even went the length of shedding tears in speaking to some officers of the communal on the state of the country. All the officers of the old garde communale, and all the officers , of the new force called the garde bourgeoise, together with the officers of the garrison, the civil authorities of the town, the nobility of the neighbourhood who at present reside in it, and the chief merchants and capitalists of the place, waited upon their Royal Highnesses, on an, intimation that their visit was expected, or would be well received. The Crown Prince or the Prince of Orange, in stead of shaking hands with or bowing to the parties who waited upon him, embraced them as old friends, and kissed them on both cheeks. The affair became thus tedious and even ludicrous. An Irishmen among the crowd, who received this gracious 'acco lade provoked a second embrace by his eagerness to tell the Prince that he had previously been ac quainted with him. When he had been kissed on both cheeks, he could not help saying," Please your Royal Highness, this is not the first interesting oc casion in which we have been together." " When before ?" asked the Prince. " After the battle of quartre Bras" was the reply, and a second embrace, more affectionate than the first, followed it. I men tion these trifling matters to show how eager the heir to the throne was . to conciliat e th e goo wishes of those whom he was probably sent to tranquillize. Prince Frederick was equally conciliatory and affable. " They left Antwerp at half-past four o'clock in the afternoon, amid a considerable display of loyalty among the spectators,- called together by their pre sence, and every body expected that they would have slept at the Royal Palace at Brussels. This, however, was not the case. They passed through %lines (or Mechlin), only stopping to change horses, and went no further than Vilvorde, about two leagues and a half from Brussels, where it had been agreed that the troops marching on the capital should halt till the deputation should arrive from the Hague. Though again within a short distance from a Royal Palace (that of Lacken), they slept at the common cabaret or inn of the little town, where they were in the midst of a regiment of the Guards, and some other troops. Their conduct in this re spect, I am convinced, could proceed from no fear of the people, but from u desire to take no precipi tate step, and to pronounce no opinion, till they should hear of the determinatious of the people cf Brussels, or hear the answer made to the depute- I don sent to the Hague. They sent this marning notice to the commander of the new bourgeoise, or .civic guard, that they were willing to hear whit ever representations the people of Brussels had to make, and would be glad to see him personally. The message was of course submitted to the com mittee, sitting at the Hotel de Vill e , w h o deputed t h e chief f the bourgeoise with four other deputies to wait upon his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange at Vilvorde. The deputation had not returned at four' o'clock. if I should - heist or the result before the closing of the post-ollicelshall let you knew it. " In the mean time the King (or the Govern. innit at the Hague) does net seem to rely alone on the popular demeanour or fl4ttering engagements of the royal Princes. He has issued a decree for the corivoc.ition of the States• General on the 13th of September (a measure which was demanded by the Botssels people, though probably not in the sense in wh ch it is ordered by the admirdsvation), and he has ordered a Lirge hody of troops to be directed from Holland ;you Belgium. I saw the Second Regiment of Guards Intl at Antwerp yesterdeb from four steam-boats, which brought them up the Scheldt from Rtrterdam, and a force to the amount or 4,000 men is still expected from Breda and other rluces. This forenoon we passed. on the road be. tween Antwerp and Malines, the regiment men• tinned above, and i‘ix piece* of a rtillery, equipped for service. The people of Mishima, when illeY herd of the approach :a of this force, asked i f this looked Ike peace and conciliation, of which the Princes had last night spoken ? " DRUSSEIS, Alta 31, NINR O 'CLOCK P.O. " The King luta refused the petition of the der re r a tion! We are in " A NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
