NEWS FROM THE FRONTIERS.L-HASSETT, FEB. 7.
The Dutch army has not made any movement for several
days past, but it is on its guard against any aggression.
It keeps round its embankments and palisades. The
inhabitants of the communes in the rayon of Maestrecht ap-
pear to have abandoned their ordinary occupations to fol-
low the course of events. The general conversation
entirely relates to the Twenty-four Articles, and
it is with indignation they are treated : it appears that
they are resolved to fight. The enthusiasm is general as
well among the old as the young. The best spirit prevails
among those employed in the administration as well as the
Custom House officers. They are anxious to march for
battle. The Patriots on the right side of the Meuse, above
all at Tanguemont, Sittard, and Vise, are decided on their
part to defend courageously their cause—they wish to re-
main Belgians at all risks. More than seven thousand per-
sons are already armed and have appointed their chiefs to con-
duct them to fight. It is assured that a regiment of Prussians
Hussars have established themselves at the distance of the
frontier in face of the cannon of Sittard. I this moment
receive the news that an order was received yesterday, at
ten o'clock in the morning, to the inhabitants of Vendoo,
that those who are not provisioned for a month must leave
the town ; the garrison is continually under arms, the Prus-
sian army has made a movement towards our frontier, the
cavalry has already taken up its position—a regiment
of Prussian Cuirassiers is cantoned at Cald Merke, a
small town of Prussia, on the road to Cologne ;
a league from Venloo. The infantry is following this
movement, greatly irritating the Rhenish population
these provinces are greatly in favour of the Belgians.
General Dibbets, Commander of the fortress of illaes-
trecht, has received orders to send back all vessels carrying
the Belgian flag.
They write from Tirlemont, on the 7th of February,
" A letter from the environs of Juliens, announces

side, and have pulled down about fifteen houses, to esta-
blish a kind of tete de pont and batteries, to defend the ap-
proach to Cyndhoven. It is assured they are going to for-
tify Luxemburg.
