ENGLAND AND BELGIUM.

It. confidently asserted that the English Government
have virtually laid down a Call/ Will to Franoe and
Prussia. The modes operaadi has already been con-
eerted bet•een the Belgian and Engbah Governmects.
In the event of the neutrality and independence of
Belgium being violated by either a the belligerents
King Leopold 11. will formally demand the performance
by Great Britain of her treaty obligations. It will then
be the &try of the Britisa Cabinet to call upon all the
Powers who •ignod the Treaty of 1839. other than the
actual offender, to assist her in performing their mutual
engagement. But Great Britain will not wait tither
for the collective or individual action of her allies. If
the preliminary negotiations now going on shall indicate
any eonfirmed backwardness or indeinsion on the part
of these Powers, al soon as the eases telli just laid
down by the English Cabinet has occurred, a British
expedition will sail for Scheldt, and British artillery.
men and infantry will heist the Belgians to garrison

-- Great excitement was Occasioned in this village on
Wednesday morning, when an agri.mltural labourer was
discovered to have made • desperate attempt upon his
life. His name his George Garland, and he has been
employed by Mr. Saunders, farmer, Joins some hedging,
ix., but he usually goes shout doing odd pieces of
work, for the neighbouring agriculturists. For some
time past he has been Nuffering from great depression of
spirits, at times becoming greatly excited and declaring
himself to be under the consulate control of the Devil,
who, he stated. was continually urging hini commit
suicide. He has been attende4 fr,An time to time by Dr.
, 4,40,g0e. of Wool, who gave iimewhie erasion that
.Od was suffering from mental depression, and
reaommended hi. friend, to guard his movements. On
Wednesday morning Garland awoke his wife earlier
than usual, and said he would get up. She endeavoured
to dissuade him, but he arose, and his Wife called one
of her daughters to watch him. He had two cups of
tea, and then usisted some masone, who were laying a
floor, in bringing in some bricks. All at once the
daughters missed their father, and informed Mrs.
Garland, who immediately went into the garden adjoin-
ing the house, and ',ailed her husband repeatedly;
receiving no answer she went in search. On again
shouting she heard him grainiest under some bushes.
She drew them aside, and was horrified at seeing her
husband lying literally covered with blood, and with •
fearful wound in his throat. For some little time no
trace could be found of the instrument used, het at last
• reaping beak was found with bloody wake apes it,
end also a pert of a whet-stone used in sharpening it.
Her daughter@ had followed her into the garden, and
their screams &Wasted a great number of the neigh-
bours. Dr. Grainier was hastily sent for, and quickly
arrived, booed up the gash in the poor fellow's throat,
and ordered him to be at once taken to the Dorset
County Hospital. On his arrival he Demisted that his
attempted self-murder wee the consequence of his
" great unbelief." He was at once attended by Mr.
Young, and received every possible care. He remains
in a precarious condition.
