" REPORT.

" Gentlemenr—Having arrived at the Hague on
Monday,, at one o'clock, we asked for an audience
of his Majesty. Half an hour had scarcely passed
when we received a favourable answer. On Tues-
day at noon we went to the Palace. His Majesty
received us with kindness, asked us for our powers,
and did not object to the title by virtue ot 'which
we presented ourselves.
" After we had read to him the address with
which we were intrusted, his Majesty told us that
he was very happy at having been able to antici-
pate our wishes in convoking the StatessGeneral
fur the 13th of September,---a legal and sure means
of learning and satisfying the wishes of all parts of
the kingdom, of doing justice to their complaints,
and of discovering the means of remedying.them.
After some general observations we proceeded to
the exposition and then to the discussion •of the
several points which in your meeting' of the 28th
you charged us to communicate verbally to his
Majesty.
" A discussion arose on the theories of ministe-
rial responsibility and of the contra sting. The
King said that the fundamental law did not autho-
rize our theories. That they might be just and
even useful, but that they could not be established
except by a change in the fundamental law in con-
cert with the States-General, convoked with double
the casual number of members. That as an extra-
ordinary Session would be opened on the 13th of
September, there would be an opportunity either at
his desire, or at the invitation of the Second Cham-
ber, for a proposal on this point, as well as on all
the others which we had discussed, and might be
thought useful and advantageous to the country.
" To the demand of the dismissal of some Mini-
sters, and especially M. Von Mannen„, his Majesty
did not say a word in their favour. He expressed
no displeasure, and did not contradict the complaints
which we enumerated at length against them. He
observed that the fundamental law gives him the
free choice of his Ministers; that, besides, he could
not take any determination, so long as he should be
constrained to it; that he set too much value on the
honour of preserving the Royal dignity to appear to
yield like one to whom a demand should be ad«
dressed with a pistol to his throat. He let us plainly
see, as well as the deputies from Liege, that he
might take our demand into consideration.--(This
question is actually before the organic commission
formed by the Prince of Orange. We are happy to
entertain the conviction that beforelhe end of the
day it will have taken a resolution which will satisfy
our wishes.)
With respect to the supreme tribunal, his Ma-
jesty said that it was upon mature deliberation that
the place for its establishment had been chosen;
that he would, however,_ consider of this request,
and of the means of reconciling all interests.
" To our application respecting. the unequal dis-
tribution of officers of the great establishments and
public departments, his Majesty seemed inflicted,
and without disputing the truth of the facts, he said
that it was very difficult to divide the public offices,
that it is still more difficult to please every body;
that, however, he would attend to this subject as
soon as good. order should be re-established I that it
was necessary, first dell, that the Princes, his sons,
should enter Brusaels at the head of his troops, and
thus put an end to the apparent state of constraint
to which heeould not yield without giving a pernicious
example to all the other towns of the kingdom.
" After long discussion on the inconveniences and
the .probable disasters which would ensue if the
troops entered by force, Mal the advantages of
a convention, and a proolametien for their entrance,
maintaining the partial occupation of theposts of
the city with the Burgher Guard, his Majesty
sired us to see the Minister of the interior, and to'
present ourselves to the Princes on our return to
Brussels. In conclusion, his Majesty eipressed
desire that all might be pal Med as soon as possible.
lie told us, with much ()Motion, and repeated se-
veral times, what a horror he felt fur the shedding
of blood,
" After an audience of two hours, we took our
leave of his Majesty, and went to the Minister of
the Interior, who having to go to the King, ap-
pointed us to be with him at eight in the evening.
" Similar discussions arose on the several points
laid before his Majesty. All was done with a franks
ness and openness which gave us the greetest hopes.
"
' M. de Lecoste prOved to us he has the heart of
a Belgian, and that he is actuated by the best Wee-
on the invitation of several of the meMbers of
the Staff Of, the Burgher Guard, Who assembled
yesterday evening, and, confer** to the desire
expressed by 'his IVlajesty, Mears. Joieph D'Hoot.

any thing. He assured them that he hoped Om
the meeting of the Commission (which took place
this morning) the most satisfaetory results, which
would be the beat calculated to prove his desire and
firm resolution, to satisfy the wishes of the country.
He commissioned us to tell you that he constituted
himself the medium of communication between hie
Majesty and the inhabitants of the South, and that
he would support our demands in such a manner a
to obtain the most prompt and complete success.
" We have positively learned this morning that
the commission which is sitting in the palace of the
Prince is diligently engaged on the object of its
mission, and that in the course of the day resolutions
will be transmitted to you respecting several parts
of your demands.

" Brussels, Sept. 2."
This report of the Brussels deputation was far
from appeasing the effervescence which disturbed the
mind of the people. Every one cried out—" These
are nothing but vague promises." In, fact, some-
thing more might have been expected. It is to be
observed, however, that in consequence of the Prince
of Orange's presence, nothing is wanted.to givo the
Government a just idea of the situation of the
country, and we hope that the firm attitude assumed
by the Belgians and the members of the commission
which waited on the Prince, will indnce the Go..
vernment to accede to our just demands. '
The description of our position may be summed
up by the statement of one fact. Belgium, discon-'
tented and exasperated, is under arms. Orie;spirit'
animates the whole population. Every where' that
desire for justice and, liberty has displayed itself;,
and if in'some plebes up energetle demonstratlon of
feeling has yet been shoWni let not the Government
therefore deceive themselves. If the troops, 'which
heve been imprudently sent for from flolleird; should
forcibly interfere to impose laws. On us, the Zelgtil'
soil will in a short time be nothing but a vast camp,'
for then the question with us will not siMpli, be
whether we are to be free or not, but whether the
Dutch are to be allowed to 'manage matters withrt
strong hand, This question is a question of carnage,
and woe to those who raise it.
Fortunately for the country there are. still some
circumstances would induce us to anticipate a better
prospect for the future. The language of the heir
to the throne, his promenades in the midst of a
people as friendly to order as resolved to defend
their rights, the reports which most have reached
him from all points of the Southern Provinces, will
suffice, we are willing to believe, to remove much
prejudice. It will now be seen hat the Belgians
do not deserve the names of rebels and revolutionists,
but that nothing will induce them to abandon their
just demands.

Much agitation was observed to prevail in the
evening, after the report was generally known.--;
This agitation assumed such a serious arearancq
that the commander of the civic guard t iought it
necessary to go, about ten o'clock, to the Grande
Place, accompanied by M. Von de Weyer, in ordei
to give the people a concise account of what had
taken place at the meeting of the commission, in 'the
Prince's Palace. He accordingly read the:l'ollo44
proclamation:—
" PROCLAMATIOM ' '

" Inhabitants of BrUssels,—The reporrof your
Deputies gives you the certainty that your desires
and wishes are known by the Monarch. They have
been stated to the Prince of Orange, and you have
the Well-founded hope that they will he complied
with by his Majesty. In this state of things, full of
confidence in the Royal word, and in the support
which his Royal Highness has promised you, yovt
will patiently, await the result. The maintenance of
tranquillity and order require, however, the conti4
nuation of the service that the brave Burgher guard
has taken upon itself. For this purpose, it has %welt
deemed destrable that the Burgher guard should he

commandant Baron Hoogvorit is o%TM:with this

may contribute to restore tranquillity aad confidence.

" WILLIAM, Prince of ORANCE.'

The Commandant shortly commented on this pro-
clamation, and cries of " Vive n'lloogvomt
" Vive le Commandant I" immediately rose from AN.
quarters. The assembly then gradually dispersed,
and the rest of the night passed off quietly.
These few days past have put the d4oairioh of
the people of Brussels to the proof, and it has shown
itself to be admirable. During the time negocia.
tions were going on, the Civic Guard remained
under arms, displaying immoveable 'cameo end
firmness. They are prepared for every thing, and
however events may turn out, they will always be.found at the post of honour. lelgiatts, yemaios
united ! Let no excess stairs the most noble of
causes. Have confidence in your chiefs; be in no
wise precipitate, but wait for events.
At eight o!clerk this morning, a deputation of
young men from Liege entered lltosselit. They
came to offer assistance from Liege in' seen and
arms, if our capital stood in need of it. This depu
tation went through the city, with a flag of the Liege
colours, having the device--." Seetirity I Liberty I"
and they we received with loud acclamations. • They
brought with them five chests 'of arms, which will
be distributed to the citizens, of whose zeal nn tul
vantage has hitherto been taken.
Yesterday two couriers were despatched to the
Hague by the Prince of Orange. They are said to
have been the bearers of the -Prince's request fat°
the iminediate.diamissal of M. Vita Maaueu. •

The deputies sent from Liege to the Pi ince ar-
rived this morning at Brussels, They alighted at
the Hotel d'Angleterre.
Deputations from tho young men of Louvaine,
Alost, and Nimuso, arrived yesterday ut the head-
quarters in the Town-hall, to announce, to Brusseh
what the feeling of the people of those towns wev.
They are animated by the best vhit, and perfectly
ready to support Brussels and Lige dtomndiott,
their rights and liberty.

Never did arnsaels present a spectacle as sow,
more imposing or more picturesque, than ea" the day
when the Prince entered. Every distil uiitbc»tl per-
sosi in Brussels was be seen on the staff at the
head of the civic guard. Al! eyes ►eem fixed upon
the young Prince of !Ape, whose immoveabit tsar
ness had, the night berme, rendered such service to
the city. The village of Molenbeck Sr.. Jean
marched Wet. Among them was a company, coola
posed exclusively of young men, bearing pikes. in
the ranks of the sections several citizens ►were seep,
armed with hatchets and scythes, by means of which
they had, on the previous evening, constructed
several barricades.

The framers of the fundamental law did not eon-
slider it wrong to confer on the King the first nomi-
nation of the members of the judicial order, without
previous presentation, because they did not•foresee
that the judicial Organization would be (felled Vteeit
years, and only take place after the infoor part of
the tribunals had lost the confidence of the nation,
as much in consequence of the conduct olsr.d ove of
their members, as by
the Monstrous, criminal pro-
cedure, followed in this kingdom, aince the stipptil-
aion of the Jury, in virtue of a decree, of no
authority, from the moment conquest had -Milted by
the establisittnent of the kingtiotit of the Pays ,Bas.
'But if the King now makes
rice of his power, the
tribunals will find great diffieulty- itt.obteining-the
confidence of the people; and if they should b"

Judges however the guarantees, which are now so
justly &mended would be easily obtained. it is
therefore thought that the principal demand, which
should be addressed to the King, ought to be for
the abandonment of his prerogative of making the
first nominations in the judicial order, without pre-
vious proposals from the States-General or Pro-
vincial.
P.S. The Captains of the sections are convoked
this morning to tlw Prince's head-quarters. After
the conference, it was decided that the troops sta-
tioned here should immediately depart, and that the
Prince himself should go to the Hague.

" The workmen, accompanied by their wives and

broken the doors and windows, entered the manu-
factories and destroyed all the machines. The

hours his house was entirely sacked. The furniture
and every thing the mob eould lay their bands on
was broken to pieces. They then went towards
the prison, and seemed disposed to break open the
gates, but luckily the citizens by this time assem-
bled with the view of repressing the tumult by main
force, The commissaries of police, and some citi-

at length the citizens, having strengthened their
numbers and collected arms, killed ten or twelve
mutineers and wounded several others. Seventy or
