hour altogether before the Dragoons were ordered out from the time I first met Alderman Camplin. Did you and Mr. Alderman Camplin wait for the Dragoons at the drawbridge, and proceed with them, or as nearly as you could to the square ? If so, at what time did the Dragoons arrive in the square ? We waited at the drawbridge for and proceeded with them ; they arrived in the square as near five as possible, rather before than after. By Captain Warrington—You stated that Captain Warring. ton said he would send an officer with the troops, was not that observation made after you had been with him to Colonel Brere ton P—No, certainly not. Did you see two women at the window of the house in Unity street ; and if so, did you hear either of them deny Lieutenant- Colonel Brereton ?—I saw two women, but I did not hear any denial of Lieut.-Colonel Brereton given. I did not hear Lieut.. Colonel Brereton's name mentioned. The only name I heard mentioned was that of Mr. Francis. Did you go to Queen -square with Mr. Alderman Camplin, or did you see him there accompanying the troops ?—Yes ; he accompanied the troops closely from the drawbridge, until he came to the entrance into Prince's-street, where there was a mob of anditt 500 or 600 people. The troops charged up, and of course left us behind. The troop advanced along Princes.street, and entered Queen -street by the north-west avenue. We entered by a nearer avenue, and made our way up to the avenue by which the troops were to enter, and arrived there just before them. By the COURT.—When the detachment of the 3d Dragoon Guards went to Queen -square, who commanded it 7—Lieu. tenant-Colonel Brereton. You have stated that Alderman Camplin said to Captain Warrington, " Won't you go yourself with us ?" Can you re collect whether Captain Warrington made any other observa tion, or used any other words, than those you have already stated ?—I have repeated the words as nearly as possible. Lieut. George Francis was then called and examined. You have hitherto said that Lieut.. Colonel Brereton might have received a letter between the hours of ten on Sunday, the 30th, and half-past four on Monday morning, the 31st of Octo ber. Now state whether between the hours of half-past twelve and half-past four, on the night in question, he could have re ceived an official despatch or letter without your knowledge ? ,—He might. When did you return to No. 2, Unity-street, on the night of Sunday the 30th, or Monday morning the 31st, of October P—A few minutes before twelve. Did you not make two official communications to the officer commanding in Bristol, between the hours of half-past twelve and half-past two on the night in question 7—l did. Were you and the officer commanding in Bristol under the same roof from one o'clock till past four on the Monday morn ing ?—Yes. Upon what grounds then do you, who are adjutant of the district, suppose that other official communications besides the two you have named, could have reached him without your hav ing been apprised of it P—l did not see Lieutenant-Colonel Brereton from one until nearly four o'clock on the morning in question. D zring that time a communication might have been made to him without my knowledge. . . _ ... Do you know that any other official communication besides the two you have alluded to, was made within the said period ? --No. Sir CHARLES DALBIAC here announced to the Court that the evidence in support of the second charge was closed; and stated that, although the third charge contained four counts he did not mean to separate them, but would announce to the Court, as well as he was able, to what count the evidence of each witness was meant to apply. The following witnesses were then called, and examined on the third charge, which was previously read over to them. Mr. Charles Gresley, timber-merchant. Were you in Queen -square on Sunday afternoon, the 30th of October, about three o'clock, when a body of rioters were pro ceeding to attack the New Gaol ?—Yes. Did you soon afterwards see Aldermen Hilhouse and Savage, with a body of constables, beaten by the said mob from the neighbourhood of the gaol ?—Yes. Did you, in consequence thereof, and in the name of the two said Aldermen, proceed to Iteeves's.hotel, or to the Horse Bazaar, for the purpose of requiring the military to proceed to the New Gaol ?—I went first to the Horse Bazaar, and from thence to Reeves's_hotel. To whom, and in what particular place, did you apply for that purpose ?—On applying at the Horse Bazaar, a serjeant took me to Reeves's-hotel, where I saw Captain Warrington, and delivered the message to him. . State if any other person or persons were present, and what passed between you and Captain Warrington.—Cornet Kelson was present. I told Captain Warrington the mob were break ing into the gaol, and the Magistrates wanted what troops he could send. He • said he would send them immediately, and that he was very fatigued, for he had been on duty all Saturday, Saturday night, and Sunday. Were any orders given in your presence by Captain War rington in consequence of you requisition ? and if so, to whom ? —He ordered the serjeant who accompanied me to order out ten men, and directed Cornet Kelson to take charge of them, and proceed to the Mansion-house, and having joined the Guard there, from thence to proceed to the gaol. Lieutenant George Francis. Can you state at what time, between the hours of two and half. past four on Sunday afternoon, the officer commanding in Bristol came to the office, and how long he remained there ? Sir C. D A LBIAC said that this question and the others fol lowing, unless he announced to the contrary, were intended to apply to the first count. Witness—He was there between two and three o'clock. It is impossible for me to say how long he remained : he was back wards and forwards the whole day. Did you take any order from the officer commanding in Bristol, about three o'clock p.m., on Sunday, the 30th of Octo ber, to the officer commanding the 3d Dragoon Guards, to send a party to the New Gaol to quell the riot ?—1 did not. Sir C. DALBIAC said the following questions were on the second count : Did you take an order from the officer commanding inßristol about eight o'clock that evening, to the officer commanding the 3d Dragoon Guards, for a part to proceed to the Bishop's Palace? if so, to whom did you deliver it ?—I did, and I delivered it to Cornet Kelson of the 3d Dragoon Guards. Was Captain Warrington then with his troop ?—I did not see him. By the PRESIDENT—Did you inquire for Captain War rington as commanding officer of the troop ?—I did. What was the reply ?—He was not there. Cornet Kelson immediately came forward, I delivered the order to him, and he acted upon it. Serjeant Platts, of the Recruiting Staff, examined on the ht count. Can you state at what time, between the hours of two and four o'clock on Sunday afternoon, the 30th of October, the officer commanding in Bristol came to the recruiting-office, and how long he remained there within the said period ?—He came there about three, and remained for more than an hour, to the best of my knowledge. Say what serjeants of the recruiting staff were in attendance besides yourself, during the whole or any part of those two hours ?—Serjeants Dinage and Notton occasionally. Were you sent with any letter or orders from the officer com manding in Bristol, to the officer commanding the 3d Dragoon Guards, between the hours of two and four on the afternoon in question ?—I was not. Serjeant Dinage, of the Recruiting Star —His evidence applied to the Ist count only. Were you sent with any letter or order from the officer com manding in Bristol, to the officer commanding the 3d Dragoon Guards, between the hours of two and four p.m., on Sunday, the 30th of October last 7—No. Serjeant Joseph Notton, of the Recruiting Staff.

How long have you been in his Majesty's service?—Since the Sth of June,lB3o. Did you proceed with a detachment of the 3d Dragoon Guards, to the New City Gaol, a little after three o'clock in the afternoon of Sunday, the 30th of October, by order of Captain Warrington, and did Captain Warrington thc.ri remain in his quarters ?--I did, and I believe Captain Warrington remained in his quarters. State what instructions Captain Warrington gave you on that ecca ion ?—Captain Warrington ordered me to take 10 or 12 men and go into College-green, where I should see Colonel Brereton. I understood from Captain Warrington that I was going to the gaol ; but I am doubtful whether Captain Warring ton ordered me to take up the party in Queen -square, or whe ther I was to tell Colonel Brereton that there was a party I might take up, if he deemed it advisable. Did you take up a party in Queen square on your way to the New Gaol ?—1 did. 'What was the total strength of the detachment with which you proceeded to the New Gaol ?—Twenty men. Was the gaol attacked, and threatened with destruction by rioters, when you arrived at it ?—lt was. Does the number of 20 men include the non-commissioned Officers ?—lt does. Did you find Captain Warrington in his quarters on your re turn from the gaol ?—I did. The following questions refer to the 2d and 3d counts col lectively : Did you receive an order from the officer commanding in Bristol about eight o'clock on Sunday evening, the 30th of Oc tober, for a detachment of the 3d Dragoon Guards, to proceed to the Bishop's-Palace ?—I did. Did you accordingly proceed with a detachment of the 3d Dragoon Guards to the said Palace ?—I did. What was the strength of the detachment ?—Twenty men. Was Captain Warrington in his quarters at the time you re ceived the above order ?—He was not. How long had he been absent ?—The last time I saw him was about seven o'clock that evening. Did Captain Warrington give you any instructions when he left his quarters ?—He did. State what they were ?—Captain Warrington told me that he was going to General Pearson's at Clifton to ask his advice : he told me that if he was wanted, I was to send his servant to Gen. Pearson's for him. At what time did the detachment which went under your Command to the Bishop's Palace return to its quarters'?—About half.past nine, or a quarter before ten. Where did you then find Captain Warrington'?—Capt. War. tington was in his bed-room. Was he in bed, or in the act of getting into bed ?----He was in t he act of getting into bed. How soon afterwards, and on what occasion, did Captain Warrington rejoin his troop at the *HorSe Bazaar I—About a quarter before eleven on that evening. When the mob attacked Reeve's Hotel, the troop turned out in consequence, and Capt. Warrington commanded them. The following questions relate to the 4th count : Did you proceed in command of a detachment of the 3d Dra goon Guards to Queen-square, some time before five o'clock on Monday morning, the 31st of October 2—l did. _ _ _ By whose order did you proceed thither ?—By order of Cap tain Warrington. What was the strength of your detachment P—Twenty-one. Relate what occurred when you proceeded to the square : On marching through College-green I met Lieut.-Col. Brereton : he accompanied me to Queen -square ; two sides of which were on fire, and the mob destroying every thing. I charged several times down the streets at the back of the Mansion-house, and in and about the square. Did you send a message from Queen square to Captain War rington ?—I did. State the nature of it, the time it was sent, and the person who conveyed it.—The nature of the message was to tell Captain Warrington to bring up the squad ; the time it was sent was about half-past six or a quarter before seven ; and the person who conveyed the message was a dragoon of my own party, by name Llewellin. At what time did Captain Warrington arrive in Queen-square with the squad 7—About seven o'clock. By Captain Warrington--Have you not heretofore commanded detachments of the 3d Dragoon Guards in 1830 at the riots in Hampshire and the Forest of Dean, in IEOI ?—I have. Did not Captain Warrington order you and your party to re port to Lieut.-Colonel Brereton in College-green on your way to the gaol, and to ask for orders ?—He did. Did you not receive your orders for the troops to proceed to the gaol from Lieutenant-Colonel Brereton ?—I did. When you stated that Captain Warrington was in his bed room, do you mean that you had ever known him to use it as a bed-room since his arrival in Bristol, until that moment 7—l never 'knew that Captain Warrington had made use of that room as his bed-room before. Had you known him to occupy any other room as a bed room at Reeves's Hotel from the time of his arrival in Bristol ? —I had not. Was he completely undressed at the time you saw him in the act of getting into bed ?—He was not. Did you not request Captain Warrington to lay down, and promise him, if any thing was required, you would let him know in person ?—I did. Did not Captain Warrington order you to meet a magistrate and Lieut.-Colonel Brereton in College-green, on Monday morning, when you marched about half-past four ?—Captain Warrington ordered me to meet a magistrate there. I cannot speak as to Colonel Brereton. Did not Captain Warrington order you to send an orderly for his reserve party, if you should receive orders to act, or if any thing should be likely to be done ?—Captain Warrington ordered me to send an orderly for his reserve party, if it should be re. quired, or words to that effect. _ Did you know that the troops were to act, when you went out with the party alluded to on the Monday morning 2-1 did not know it till I got to Queen -square, as I gave the orders to the troop myself. From an order which Colonel Brereton gave you for Captain Warrington on Sunday evening, when returning from the Palace, did you not understand that Captain Warrington was acting under his immediate orders, and that he was not to move without an order from him 2—Colonel Brereton ordered me to inform Captain Warrington from him, that he would not call upon him till the last necessity, and not to move until he did. In re-examination—Did not the original order which you received to proceed with a detachment to the gaol proceed from Captain Warrington at Reeves's hotel ?—Captain War rington ordered me out with the party to go to the gaol, but at the same time to call at Col. Brereton's office for further orders. By the COURT—What number did the squadron consist of that Captain Warrington brought to your assistance in Queen_ square, on Monday morning, October 31 2—Twelve. When Colonel Brereton ordered you to inform Captain War. rington that he would not call upon him to till the last neces sity, and not to move till then, did you understand those orders to apply to Captain Warrington personally, or to him and the force under his command ?—I understood the order to apply to Captain Warrington personally, When Captain Warrington was in his bed-room at Reeves's hotel, and as you stated about getting into bed, was he in his uniform ?—He was not. How far was he undressed ?—He had nothing but his drawers and shirt on. Did Captain Warrington take the command of his troop, when he joined you at seven o'clock on Monday morning ? He did. Was Captain Warrington at the Bazaar with his troop when the detachment turned out at five o'clock on Monday morning —He was. There being no other question, the President considered he should express the opinion of the Court by saying, that the clear and straightforward manner in which Cornet Belson had on all occasions delivered his evidence had given them much satis faction. Henry Llewellin, private of the 3d Dragoon Guards, examined to the third count of the charge. Did you convey a message from Cornet Kelson in Queen_ square to Captain Warrington at the Horse Bazaar, on Monday morning, the 31st of October ?—Yes. At what hour did you reach the Bazaar with the said mes sage ?—Between six and seven. By Captain Warrington—Did you not find the reserve party quite ready to turn out, and did they not do so immediately on the delivery of the message ?-1 found them ready, and they turned out immediately. Did you return with the party to Queen.square ?—Yes. Did they move at a trot the whole way ?—Yes. Did not Captain Warrington continue actively employed with his troop, after he had taken the command of it P—Yes. John Calkin, waiter at Reeves's Hotel, whose evidence refers to the second and third counts of the charge. Do you know at what hour after eight o'clock on Sunday evening, 30th October, Captain Warrington returned to Reeves's Hotel ?—As near as I can recollect, about ten o'clock. At what time did a body of rioters commence an attack upon Reeves's Hotel ?—About five or ten minutes after eleven. Where was Captain Warrington at the time of that attack ? —ln his bed-room. State what became of Captain Warrington, in consequence of that attack, and when you next saw him.—He went out of a side-door to his troop, and he was mounted on his horse the next time I saw him. Where was he when you saw him mounted ?—At the head of his troop, near the side door of the house. Did the troop immediately afterwards form in front of the hotel ?—Yes. Whereabouts was the number of rioters who made the attack on Reeves' hotel, and what damage did they commit ?—The number was from eight or ten to twelve. They first broke the spikes of the wall, and then broke the windows of the rooms in the bottom part of the house. What do you conceive to be the greatest number of rioters you saw in and about the hotel during the attack ?—From 0 to 25. There might have been a few more. By Captain Warrington—Did you not see Captain Warring ton speaking to Mss. Perry about eight o'clock on Sunday even ing, in Reeves' hotel ?—Not to my recollection. When you saw Captain Warrington, between Mght and ten o'clock on the Sunday evening, did he not desire you to send Mr. Kelson to him the moment he returned with his detach ment ?—He did. Could Captain Warrington have been in Reeves' hotel after eight o'clock and before ten on Sunday evening, without your seeing him ?—Yes, he could. Can you relate to the Court why Captain Warrington retired to a bed_room ?—I recollect that on Sunday night Mrs. Perry, the landlady, was talking to Captain Warrington ; the exact time I cannot recollect. Mrs. Perry said, " Captain Warring. ton, you look very ill. I think you had better go to bed, and I will make you something to take ; for I am afraid the cold shivers or ague is coming upon you." He said, " I think I will," anci desired me to call him as quick as possible if any thing occurred. Do you know that the clothes Captain Warrington had on were wet ?—I do not. From the time which elapsed after the mob commenced their attack on the hotel, and Captain Warrington' s appearance in uniform, do you think he could have been entirely undressed ? —I think not. Troop Sergeant-Major Martin. The following questions relate to the first count. Were you in command of a party of the 3d Dragoon Guards in Queen -square, on Sunday afternoon, the 30th of October last, between the hours of two and fuor o'clock ?—I was.

To the second count only. Did you accompany a detachment of the troop to the Bishop's Palace, in the evening of the 30th of October ?—I Who commanded the detachment ?—Cornet Kelson ; but Colonel Brereton was present. What was the strength of the detachment ?—Twenty. Do you mean that Colonel Brereton was present when the detachment turned out, or that he took the command at the Bishop's Palace ?—To the best of my recollection, Colonel Brere ton was the first who turned the party out. Cornet Kelson formed the party, told them off, and gave the word to march. Can you undertake to say that Colonel Brereton was present when the party turned out, or is it only your impression that he was there ?—I can speak positively that Colonel Brereton gave me the order to turn the troop out ; but I cannot say for certain that he was present when Cornet Kelson marched them off. Was Captain Warrington absent from his• troop when the detachment turned out ?—He was. How many non-commissioned officers and men were absent from the Bazaar on another duty at the time the said detach ment turned out ?—To the best of my recollection eight. Did Captain Warrington join and take command of the said detachment, at any time previous to its return to quarters ?—No. The following questions to the fourth count. Were you on duty with the detachment of Dragoon Guards that left the Horse Bazaar some time before five o'clock on Monday morning, the 31st of October, for Queen.square ?—Yes. Who ordered out that detachment? —Captain Warrington. Who commanded it ?—Cornet Kelson. What was its strength ?—Twenty-one. Did Captain Warrington then remain behind in his quarters? —He did. By Captain Warrington—Was Colonel Brereton with the party who turned out to go to the Bishop's Palate the whole time, and until they were ordered to return to their quarters ? I recollect seeing Colonel Brereton immediately after we left the Bazaar-yard, and he remained with us until we returned to College green. He was with us at the Bishop's Palace the whole time. Did the party return direct from College-green to its quar ters ?—Yes. Sir C. DALBIAC begged to announce to the President and the Hon. Members of the Court, that the case for the prose cution was then closed ; when the President said it became his duty to call upon Captain Warrington to know when he would be prepared with his defence. The Captain replied, on Monday morning; and the President having stated that the Court could have no objection to grant him the Saturday intervening, adjourned the Court until five minutes before ten on Monday morning. VICE-CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) His Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR took short causes today, all of which he disposed of before one o'clock, at which time his Honour rose, there being no other business to proceed with. The Court will not sit on Monday, it being the day appointed to commemorate the martyrdom of King Charles. BANKRUPTCY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) LOWE IN THE MATTER OF AARON. This case came before their Honours, upon motion made to disharge an order made by the Court for the transfer of the petition from the Lord Chancellor's paper to that of their Honours. Mr. MONTAGU appeared to support the application, con tending that there was no concurrent jurisdiction between the Courts, that the petitioners had elected the Court in which the matter should be heard, by presenting the petition of appeal, and that to have the case heard before their Honours would only tend to increase expence and litigation. The case being onej of such importance as to render more than probable any decision their Honours might pronounce, would be appealed from to that Judge, in whose Court the matter now stood for hearing. Mr. JACOB followed on the same side, and was addressing the Court when our reporter left. No business of any importance took place in the Courts of Exchequer or Common Pleas up to the time of our going to press. FROM THE GAZETTE OF LAST NIGHT. LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S-OFFICE, 9, -- 181 3 2.

The Reform Bill was brought on again last night in the House of Commons, when the clause for the division of counties was carried by a great majority, 215 to 89. We could have wished that the counties had been left undivided; however better, far better that the Ministers should carry even this point, than that the Bill should be put in the slightest jeopardy. We trust Ministers will do their very utmost to press the measure through Com mittee. One day (Thursday) has been already lost to them ; the first day in the next week is lost to them, and we much fear that Tuesday also will be lost, in consequence of Sir R. VYVYAN'S eternal question of Belgium. The end w 4 be that the House will see the necessity of sittirfg on Wednes days and Saturdays. We are not among those who are accustomed to swim invariably with the stream, or to raise Ou r voice for the acts of Ministers, simply because they are Ministerial, we shall not therefore be suspected, we trust, of any excessive leaning towards the side of power, in expressing our conviction that the de• bates of Thursday, in both Lords and Commons, have tended considerably to the credit and charac ter of Earl GREY'S Government. It is not to be supposed that Lord ABERDEEN'S reiteration of the misrepresentations that have for months past been going forth among the Tories, upon the Belgic revolution, its causes and conse quences, can hare much effect in this country, where people's minds are already surfeited with the question. The British Government is, in no man ner, answerable for the separation of the kingdom of the Netherlands, and it is therefore, nothing to the purpose to agitate the point, whether or not the Belgic revolution was justifiable, for that question does not in the slightest degree affect the present Cabinet. The only real charge against the British Government, is for having shewn an unparalleled forbearance and spirit of conciliation towards the Dutch KING, for whose sake the Belgians have been treated in a manner quite humili ating to their sense of justice. Belgium does not appear to have any representative in the House of Lords, otherwise nothing could have been more easy than to shew, that if Government has erred, it is Holland, and not Belgium, that has reaped the benefit of its errors. Lord ABERDEEN is of opinion" that if it should please the ALMIGHTY to notice the case, the Dutch will yet be visited with success," and we presume, therefore, that at the approaching fast, prayers fur the consideration of the King of HOLLAND will be duly prepared for use on that occasion. On the same occasion, an anathema will, no doubt be fulminated by some competent authority, against such persons as the fo mentors of the Belgic revolution, who, as Lord ABERDEEN informs us, were a mixed crew " com posed of Deists, Catholics, and Editors of News papers." We hardly know whether the Noble Lord's speech will be read on the Continent with more of derision, or of disgust. Of poor Mr. PER CEVAL,:We cannot speak without a sentiment of com passion, but it is not easy to smother our in dignation at the tissue of libels on a just cause, which were put forth on Thursday by a Noble man whose classical attainments, and whose great political experience, entitled the public to expect that there would have been, before this, an end of this kind of talk in quarters which were in truth possessed of full information on the subject. In regard to the Russian Dutch loan, it is easy to see by the composition of the minority, that the opposition was one of party, made up of the Anti- Reformers, backed by those who are sometimes called the Ultrr.Reformers. If the Government have erred in this matter, it has erred by fulfilling the clear intention of the treaty upon which the law was founded, notwithstanding the letter of the Act of Parliament was of doubtful construction. It is too much to say that Government is answer able for not taking up the merely technical view of the case contended for by the Ex-Ministers and their friends. The question of economy must ever be subordinate to that of justice, and however much the burthen of the loan may press, it is highly un becoming to treat the case as one of finance, when it, in fact, relates solely to the construction of a treaty. If Ministers, acting on the opinion of the law advisers of the Crown, considered that the faith of this country was pledged to Russia, we di) not see how they are chargeable either with the neglect of economy, or any other offence, be yond, at the very utmost, an error in their view of the treaty. We will answer for it that scarcely one of the speakers on the Opposition side, and certainly none of the lawyers, who so boldly anticipated Lord ALTHORY, had well weighed the bearings of the treaty on which the Russian Dutch loan was founded, or the circumstances out of which it ori ginated. The conduct of the Government ought not to be judged by the construction which a Nisi Prius Court would put on a clause in an Act of Parliament, and it would be an event of most per nicious tendency if the time should ever arrive when the technicalities of special pleading should become the rule of action for the dealings of the great Powers of Europe towards each other. The moral law is before the municipal, as good faith will al ways be held in higher honour than legal subtilties. We have received this morning Dutch and Ham burg Papers of late dates. It appears that the King of HOLLAND has ordered a ship of the line, three frigates, a corvette, and two brigs of war to be put on active service. This does not look very like a disposition to ratify the Belgian treaty by Tues day next, the 31st. At the same time e are in formed that the Dutch navy consists of seventy men of-war. Perhaps all this is only intended as a mere demonstration—a species of gasconade to extort better terms ; if so, w e do not quarrel with it ; but if the ratification be delayed beyond the time specified —or a further extension be required, we shall be much surprised if the ratification ever take place. If the Northern Powers really mean honetly to act up to their professions, why hesitate to perform their premises ? If they do not mean to ratify—but seek time under various pretexts in order to get over the winter, why then we can understand their purpose, and should be prepared accordingly. Let us hope, however, that Lord GREY may not be disappointed in the realization of those solemn assurances which have been made to him by the representatives of the several Powers. However strong the Northern Powers may fancy themselves, they will assuredly find in the end that peace is their best policy : _ - THE HAGUE, JAN. 24.—8 y a Royal decree of the 20th inst., the following men of war are ordered on active service :—The Waterloo, 74 guns, Captain Dibbets ; the Roupel frigate, 44, Captain .1. H. Bolken ; the Algiers, 41, Captain A. Van Daalen ; the Javaan, 32, Captain N. P. Blommendal ; the Triton corvette, 28, Captain J. C. F. Van Son; the Zu'aluw brig, 18, Captain John Tinn ; the Pegasus, 18, Captain J. - P. Muller. AMSTERDAM, JAN. 22.—The ice in the river broke up yes terday, but it is still full of floating ice. Five ships have already arrived, one has been brought up to the city, the four others are still in the river. Messrs. Heyman and Massiquet have arrived here as couriers from the Austrian Consul General at Paris with deSpatches. From a list of the Dutch Navy just published it appears that it consists of 70 men of war, viz., two of 84 guns, six of 74, one of 61, three of 60, fourteen of 44, six of 32 thirteen of `2B, four of 20, nine of 18, three of 14, one of 12, and three of 8 guns. VLAAMSCH—HOOFD, JAN. 17.—The only important intel ligence that we have received is that the prolongation of the armistice has caused great dissatisfaction at Antwerp, and that the civic guard, the volunteers, and the remainder of the Sove reign people, have agreed to attack the citadel and the Vlaamsch. Hoofd (Tete au Flanders). Though we do not entertain any fears (and assuredly the citadel does not), and even that our worthy neighbours, who have often shewn that nothing is more easy than to prate about taking the citadel, will have sense enough to give up such a plan, we are constantly on our guard- We can hear that many numerous detachments of cavalry patrol the city, from which we infer that the authorities of the city are apprehensive of the riotous disposition of the people. fr 0 1 m t d thees m n l t i t s a e r e 3 m , t on t h w e e c h o n a v t r e . a r3 n ? y t reason t t h o e r e x s p e e e c m t at o e alt p e ak tack one from our side during the present tbggy weather ; for when the fog clears up about noon, we see their artillery standing by their guns along the whole line of their works.

Among the Professors here, the strictesezelection is made, and every one is excluded to whom the slightest suspicion attaches of having taken any part in the revolution. Ihe persons so excluded do not lose their whole sa lary. Accounts from Vilna say, that every one there is placed on the Russian footing. Thus the Lithuanian statute," which was hitherto in force in most cases is abolished, and new tribunals like those in Russia are established. ELBERG, JAN. 12.—We hear that the Russian Consul in Dantzic has informed the Polish officers here, that the determi nation by which all the officers of Rybinski's corps are excluded from the amnesty, has been revoked by the Emperor, and they will thereforebe allowed to return to Poland. DRESDEN, JAN. 11.—. Wish fugitives arrive here daily, who receive money for their journey from the Polish Committee, at the head of which M. Leobinski is the Director. A similar Committee of ladies has been formed by Madame Dobryska, whose zeal in tile cause of her countrymen is indefatigable. Our Government has not only not forbidden the Poles already here from remaining longer, but allows those going to France to pass through Dresden, and to stop a week here. Some even ask permission to stay longer. BERLIN, JAN. 20.—THE CHOLERA. Remaining on the 18th, 8 patients New cases. Recoveries. Deaths. _ _ _ Jan. 19 20 1 Remaining 8.

The most important of all is the final answer of the King of Holland, which is expected on that day ; should it be favourable, we may expect that the entire settlement will be left between the King of Holland and the King of Belgium ; should it prove the contrary, a further pro crastination must take place. At all events, we are informed that France and England will ratify the said treaty by the speci fied time. It is reported that Russia and Austria require a fur ther delay to give their final answer.

That hope, however, has proved to be fa!la cious.—These offenders have conducted themselves wilt the greatest propriety. They have attended to the re ligious exhortations of the Reverend Chaplain of the gaol, and of the Reverend Mr. Roberts, a Dissenting Minister, with the greatest avidity. Davis has been Frolic:dad,. attentive. They all of them, last night, had some sleep, but early this morning they were attending to their re ligious duties. We were admitted to the interior of the gaol shortly after nine o'clock, and, in consequence of the gaoler's house not having been rebuilt, had to pace the dreary court-yard until the execution took place. It will ba recollected that this was one of the scenes in which the rioters had been parti nlarly active. William Clarke was proved to have been particularly busy in the attack on this place. He moved the flag post, and, with an iron bar in his hand, committ-d sad outrage. He was also active on other occasions. and especially at the demolition of the Bridewell. Christopher Davis was proved to have encouraged the mob by words and actions. He was a man ranking superior in life to the other prisoners, having an independent property of 3001. a year. He has been in the habit for years of making use of the same sort of Im4uage for which he has this day died. Thomas Gregory was convicted of having assisted in burning and d,malishing the house of Mr. Strong, and of having been actively employed among the mob in different scenes of devastation. Joseph Kages was found guilty of having assisted in the dem-lition and destruction of the house of Chades Ball, in Queen-square. Early in the morning a very strong farce, consis.ing of seven hundred special constables, was marched into the vicinity of the gaol, and stationed in such a manner as to prevent the approach of persons between the gaol-wall and the Avon, so that any attempt at disturbance in that quarter was completely unavailing. This force was under the immediate superintendence of Mr. Dowling, and was admirably arranged. All the other special constables in Bristol were also held in readiness. The military were placed with equal discrimination. The 14th Dragoons were at Fisher's livery-stables ; the 3d Dragoon Guards were at the Cattle-market, and the Fusileers were sta tioned at the Exchange ; but all were completely screened from the sight of the public. The military guards, at the gaol, were doubled, under the command of Captain Hay, of the 75th, and the precautions taken were such as reflected great credit on those who bad the direction of their pro ceedings. The Magistrates were in the neighbourhood, ready to act if called on. At ten o'clock vety few persons had collected near tl e prison ; they, however, eradually arrived until the crowd became very great. Still there were not near so many as had been expected. About ten breakist was taken to the culprits, and they were attended by their r,ligious in structors. The Sheriffs arrived about eleven o'clock, and immediately proceeded to the cells of the wretched men, who were deeply engaged in devotion. It was not till past twelve that they 'vele brought from their calls. The Sheriff, accompanied by the Under-Sheriff, Mr. Hare, and the Chaplain, came out of that part of the gaol, being Way 3. The prisoners then followed in this order : Thomas Gregory, Christopher Davis, William Clarke, and Joseph Kayes. Each of them was supported either by the Rev. Clergyman or the officers of the gaol. Ti,e short time of anxiety which has elapsed since tlieir trials had made deep impression upon all. Clarke had fallen away very much, and the others had evidently suffered much mental agony. They appeared, on their enterima , the prison -yard, 1- aning on their respective ►upporters, in deep prayer. Davis we could hear implining the Throne of Grace for mercy; Gregory looked the most calm ; Clarke appeared resigned; and Kayes was throwing his eyes wildly about. Still they were all cidnparatively firm, without the slightest tendency to bravado or ilnproper boldness. The mournful procession now slowly paced the prison yard, the Chaplain repeating the burial ser vice—" lam the resurrection and the life." Having gone round the ruins of the Governor's house, we approached the lodge, and thence went up the narrow winding stair case to the press-room. The Rev. Chaplain, having here exhorted them all, knelt down to pray. This was a solemn moment, and a most distressing one. The She riffs and all present were in tears ; even the stern turn keys, accustomed to such dreadful scenes, could not restrain the show of sympathy ; every heart was moved. The Chaplain having concluded a very impressive prayer, the prisoners again stood up. The cfficers then took off their neckerchiefs, and put the fatal noose around their necks. A form was placed, upon which the prisoners sat while their arms were pinioned. Kayes called for a little water, which was instantly given him. During the time this sad ceremony was going through, the different Ministers of religion were engaged in exhorting them, and repeating those portions of Scripture applicable to their situations. This having been finished, Keyes rose and went up to Davis, shook his hand, placed it to his lips, and said, " May this be a passport to Heaven !" He then went to each and did the same, and all followed his example. Mr. Humfries, the Governor of the gaol, having looked to see if every thing was right, the prisoners shook him by the hand with apparent gratitude Dav s said, " Oh, my dear Sir, may God bless you !" Theiy appeared anxious to take a last farewell of the Rev. Gentlemen who were in attendance, and ...lessed the hands of each with great warmth. Ejaculatory prayers were uttered by all of them, until it was announced that the Sheriffs were ready. Upon this they rose in the fol lowing order :—Davis, Gregory, Clarke, and Kayes. The procession once more, and, for the last time, resumed its march, going up the winding staircase to the top of the lodge, on which the scaffold was erected, the lower part of the front being covered with black cloth. Here all again knelt down, and the Rev. Mr. Day and the Rev. Mr. Roberts offered up a prayer for heavenly mercy. The exe cutioner now made his appearance. Davis was then con ducted up the stairs to the scaffold, followed by Gregory ; the later bowed to the populace. Davis took no notice of those beneath, and but once cast his eyes up the fatal beam. The executioner then put the eye of the rope upon the hook. Clarke next ascended, fulluwed by Kayes, and the same sad ceremony was gone throegh. The Rev. Divines having prayed with them a short time, and again taken leave of them, the caps were pulled down over their faces, and the bolt was drawn. Kay es apparently suffered much ; the others died almost instantly. Perhaps more becoming conduct, in such a trying moment, was never witnessed. The crowd did not express a werd during the time of the execution. All were quiet, arid apparently, were not much affected by this awful exhibition. A great number of women were present. Several of the foreign Ambassadors were pre bent near the Throne on Thursday night, during the debate respecting the affairs of Holland and Belgium. The Marquis of EXETER and Mr. ARNOLD have finally adjusted the differences which have for some time existed between them as to the site on which the new English Opera-house is to be erected in the new street leading front Waterloo-bridge. There is no truth in the report which was circulated some time since, of a demand having been made for ground-rent, the only dif ference of opinion having arisen as to the locality of the building. Mr. ARNOLD, we understand, immediately commences his new building under the most powerful patronage. Mr. BEAZELY is the architect, and Mr. Prrir we believe, has the contract for the building. Since the opening of the Liverpool and Manchester railway, between seven and eight hundred thousand persons have travelled on it. The remains of the late CHARLES GREEN woon, Esq. an account of whose death at the Pavilion, at Brighton, we noticed in The Sun of Thursday last. ar rived at his late residence in Andley-square, at ten this morning. No day is yet fixed fur the funeral. TIGHT LACING.—A lamentable instance of the d .ngerr,us consequences of tight lacing took place on Sunday morning, at Pentonville.
