Tenn-midi, temporar►ly'occupied y e eit.emy, will obey
the Provisional Government only ae soon as the force of
circumstances shall have restored them to themselves ;
they cannot recognise any Government or Power but those
which at this moment govern the whole country.
” It is the people who effected the revolution—it is the
people who have driven the Dutdli from the territory of
Belgium—Abe penple.alone, and not the Prince of Orange,
are at the head of the movement which has secured its in-
dependence, and will establish its political nationality.
" When,the Provisional Government shall have aided the
brave and generous Belgic nation to derive from its social
regeneration all the advantages which it has a right to ex-
pect from it, its members will be proud to mingle again in
the ranks of the people, to enjoy with them the liberty
which they have conquered by their blood.

GHENT, OCT. 18.
General Duvivier and Colonel de Pontecoulant, with
several officers, went yesterday to the citadel, and after a
conference of two hours with the Governor, M. Destombes,
the terms of the capitulation was agreed upon. We
understand that the Dutch evacuate the citadel to-morrow ;
one pest only will be confided to the voluntee►s. A
Belgic officer will remain for another week at the bead of
the Belgians who make part of the actual garrison. Of
the eight cannon belonging to the Dutch, they are tv bike
away only four.
It seems the enemy will return to Antwerp with arms
and baggage.

(From the Journal du Gond of Wednesday.)

The munition of our fort by the Dutch troops took
place this morning ut five o'clock. They departed with
their arms and bagage, tscorted by four cannon and a
strong detachment of our Burgher Guard, which will
accompany them to the frontier of the province.
We hear that disturbances took place yesterday at
Bruges, in consequence of which part of the Belgic
Pari.ian Legion, commanded by M. de 'Pontecoulant, set
out this morning on hoard the public passage-boat, drawn
by eight horses. A second detachment sat out at noon.

ANTWERP, OCT. 18.

"The agitation which prevails in this city, and the alarm-
ing reports which are industriously circulated in or4rer to
inflame people's minds, oblige me to let you know that in
order to cairn them 1 am forced to declare this fortress in
a state of siege; an extremity to which I proceed with regret.
Nevertheless, as circumstances imperiously demanded it, I
request you, gentlemen, to order the inhabitants to furnish
themselves with provisions for a mouth. A speedy notice
On this subject will announce to you the formal declara-
tion placing this fortress in a state of siege. Nothing but
the calmness and tranquillity of the inhabitant• can induce
me to delay for a few days longer the execution of this se-
vere measure.

The account of the imbuccessful attempt on Brussels bas
excited apprehension' of foreign interference in the affairs
of Belgium, and has much depressed our Funds. No bank-
ruptcies have yet taken place ; but if the general uneasi-
ness should continue they can hardly fail to occur. The
measures taken by the Diet and the German Princes to
quell the troubles in some parts 'of Germany have given
great satisfaction here.

The Hungarian Diet will eloSe by the end of this
month, and the Diet which his Majesty has promised to
convoke next year be opened on the 30th of March. His
Majesty will, therefore, not he here before the f4Sth of Oc-
tober. Prince Metternich is still at Presburg.

The French Papers are principally filled with
accounts respecting the entrance of ,the Consti-
tutionalists into Spain. " MINA," says the
Gazette de France, " is recognized as the
General-in-Chief of the expedition, which is
to enter Spain at three points, the Eastern Pyre-
nees, the Ariege, and the Lower Pyrenees.
The revolution is to he at the same time Spanish
and Portuguese. They have not yet agreed upon
the form of Government which is to be given
the Spanish Lusitanian Peninsula. The chiefs
indulge each his own hopes and conjectures.
This kind of tactics is very judicious, for it main-
tains some union in an assemblage formed of so
many difFerent elements. It was nearly in this
manner that our last revolution was accom•

shed; but after the victory, if there should be
a victory, there will be a Babel-like confusion
of principles, opinions, and systems, as there is
already of nations, languages, physiognomies, and
manners. Among these troops there arc some
hundreds of men who took part in the events
of the 27th, 28th, and 29th of July, at Paris.
Much confidence is placed in them."

Despatches from France and Holland have

At the Westminster Sessions, held this morn
ing, two cases of the greatest importance to the parishes
in and near the metropolis Came on, but were afterwards
specially appointed. to be beard on the 6th of November.
The. questions are whether or not the parishes of Saint
Margaret and Saint John, West Minster, can enforce the
payment of Poor-rates by the Gas and Coke, and Chelsea
Waterwork Companies, for the mains sod pipes running
through the several streets in' the respective parishes.
The justice and propriety of rating public companies,
with a large'eapital ratted by the subscription of hundreale
of persons, cannot be doubted. The late decisions in the
Court of King's Bench have been in favour of the parihes,
end the principle on which the Court* haie decided it that
iu respect of the mains and pipes the owners 'and proprie-
tors are rateable as occupiers of WA We understand
that the Gas' Company would not have objected to an ad-
ditional rate upon their buildings, if the parishes would
not have included the mains and-pipes in the rate, as they
were afraid other parishes would have folloWed the ex-
ample, and by that means reduce their enormous urolits.
The rates in these two parishes are only three 'shillings in
the pound, and the annual assessment'nf these Companies
would amount to nosey 1,0001.; if, therefore, this large
sum ought to be paid by them where the. rates Are so extra-
ordinary low, of what immense importance will he the
&cisioni to many parishes where the rates' amount to nine
shillings and uPwarde• Tbeopinions of some of the most
eminent. lawyers have been taken upon, the subject, and
they are decidedly ill lova of die chijute Qi< the Priam.
