MOST ALARMING CONFLAGRATION.

SEVEN Wei3OCK.
I had just closed my letter, when an express reached the
Phomix Fire-Oftice, announcing a tire at Nick()lt Farm, peen.
pied by a person named Gat, who resides near Chatham, about
three miles from hence. The engines are Bono off at full gallop.
I have this moment left the summit of the Dane John Mound.
which commands a view of country of many miles in circum-
ference. It is distinctly visible and the sky in the south-west is
Illuminated to a vast extent. It would appear, therefore, that
the conflagration is very extensive.

IMF-PAST Evn;
I have since learnt that the barn, stacks, &c. arc a consumed.
Mr. Glatt, the tenant, has not occupied the (arm more than a
twelvemonth.

A post-boy is arrived, who distinctly saw another tire In the
direction of Ashford.

ADDRESS OF Wig STATFS•GENETIAG
TO THE KING OF THE NETHERLANDS;

Star—Th c Deputies of the States... General, who have remillneti
faithful to the King and the Aindamental law, come to detlare
at the Mot of your Throne the sentiments or devotion and pa.
triotism with which they have never ceased to be anirmded;
but at the same time, they must exoresi the grief and indtgna.
Bon which they Mel at the attack directed against legal power
in the southern provinces.
We also, Sire, had still some hope that our last deliberations,
during winch almost all the Representatives of the People of the
Netherlands gave the most unequivocal proofs of their attach.
ment and tidelity to your Majesty, would have exercised a great
influence towards the re-establishment of peace. We now re.
gret, with your Majesty, that neither the liberal manifestation of
your opinions, nor the discussions to which they gave rise, and
the object of which was to examine the supposed grlevances.in is
legal manner, nor the eftbrts of the anned forces of the State to
support the wished of the well-disposed inhabitants, and to re.
press the attacks of the disaflbctod, should not have been
crowned with a favourable result. We tee with pain and (egret
that it population led into error, anti belonging to one of the
most happy portions of Europe, and which enjoyed under the
reign of your Majesty the most extensive protection for civil,
political, And religious liberties, should, through a pure spirit of
revolt, joined to the most black ingratitude, be plunged in
anarchy and misery. It is thus that they have broken the bonds
which European policy had formed, in connecting Belgium, a
country until then deemed incapable of existing politically by
itself, and consequently but ill adapted for true liberty, to the
;tate of the provinces of the Netherlands, which had been united
for time immemorial. There exists but one sentiment in the
ancient provinces of the Netherlands, which is the distinctly
expressed desire that this union, established for the purpose or
augmenting the common prosperity, but which has caused so
mane evils by the mean* employed in severing it, should be
legally dissolved.

Alt:catty reassured in our hope, by the opening Speech of your
Majesty, we received with the greatest satisfaction the Inipor.
tont Message of your Majesty, dated on the 30th of this month,
which has confirmed our expectations. Considering ourselves
henceforward solely as Representatives of the Northern Pro.
' vinees, with the reservation of the measures to be adopted rela.
tire to the separation—occupied with the rights of the State ere-
ditors, and waiting until the result of the negociations with the
Powers, and the decisions which the Fundamental Law wilt re.
quire, shall become known—we shall direct an our diiieuistoth, to
the exclusive examination ,of every thing which may determine
and strengthen the Interests of our Constitution.
As Deputies of the States-General, of that part of the king-
dom so little known to, and neglected by, those who tilt, ple
upon the Fundamental Laws, we receive with respect the corn.
munieation •of your Majesty, as well with regard to relations
with foreign Powers, as fur the projects and the measures
adopted temporarily to prevent and redress sedition, anti to pro.
vide beforehand for the wants of the necessitous during winter.
We now adopt this a fjournment, required by circumstances, of
the new judicial organization.
In the interest of the Northern Provinces, we will take into
particular consideration all the projects of laws which may be
presented to us, concerning finances, in Order that th.sy may be
arranged with the care, exactitude, and celerity which are ne-
cessary.
We entirely approve of the praise which your Majesty has
deigned to bestow on thart of the army w hose valour ad
constant fidelity have so brilliantly frustrated the mmuresn of
the despicable enemies of the State.
'We receive with peculiar satisfaction the news tranquillityp
fication of the island of Java, and of the order and
which reign in all our ultra-marine possessions; and we see in it
a new proof that the sailors and soldiers of the Netherlands con.
tinue to prove themselves the worthy inheritors of the glory of
their ancestors.

7 Nevertheless, Sire, we cannot confine ourselves to this deck-
ration. The importance of the present circumstances forces us,
now that the separation, a subject upon which we did not intend
to speak out, has been prociairmal, to declare ourselves in the
interest of the ancient United Provinces, with frankness and
confidence. We shall principally insist upon the care and the
means to be taken for the defence of our territory, by the im-
mediate fbrmation of an active army, which may be relied upon
under any circumstances. We rely the more upon the prudence
and wisdom of your Majesty, because we have already had proofs
that your Majesty is anxiously occupied in organising au Admi.
nistration without any mixture of foreigners, for the Northern
Provinces.'
itetuatea with those principles, we confidently desire that, so
long as the Southern Provinces shall not be restored to order,
which can alone render a separation legal, and place us in a po-
sition to take possession of our rights, your Majesty would deign
to consider as null all ties and obligations which, in consequence
of our union, existed with it, as well with respect to the polo_
nies as in regard to all other afthirs.
We expect with the same confidence the propositions of your
Majesty relative to every point which may remove the obstrue.
lions to our commerce and industry, or the general interest of
the kingdom, and which henceforward can only be considered
as sacrifices on our part.
We also wait with impatience fat the propositions tending to
consolidate the confidence with respect to our finanelal system.
We sh misfortunes in these measures, the first compensation
for our and the losses which we have so little
merited, and which the revolt of the inhabitants of the South
has forced us to submit to. The nation, composed of the (Magna
otrovinces of the North, will contribute all its means? and all Its
es, not only for the defence of our native land, tor which it
ters itself, with the most admirable and juttriotie enthusiasm,
but also to increase the finances of the Treasury by every sacri.
lice required for the preservation of confidence, as well as the
re-establishment and consolidation of public credit. it quiet
conscience is the reward of virtue. May your Majesty enjoy it,
Full of confidence we expect from you the issue of events, and
since the Powers in alliance with your Majesty, who have
founded anti guaranteed the existence of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands, are occupied m
in deciding upon this important gu-
Hon, we are inclined to hope that theriowill soon put an end to
the larnentable disorders to which the uthern Provinces are a
'trey ; and we, in concert with the nation, whose Representa-
tives we are, calling to mind the virtue and the glory of our '
ancestors, will unite all our eftbrts, and implore the assistance
of Divine Providence, who has hitherto protected ow country,
and who, in spite of its confined limits, will insure its safety and
integrity.

MR. O'CONNELL TO THE PEOPLE OF
IRELAND.

(From the Rtiiihs Morning Register.)
London, oath October, Mat
Fellow Countrymen,—lt has been said that you are disposed to
listen to advice coming from me.
There are three reasons why yen should attend to the advice 1
give you :

' 11;st--1 am your sincere and disinterested friend....you may
well believe that the leading, if not the sole, object of my public
life is to do good to the people of Ireland.
Second—.l have had considerable experience in the political
afiliirs of Ireland.
To these two qualities acquiredod intentions and experience I add
the advantage ot having the Mortal hatred and vitupera-
lion of every enemy of Ireland.
Listen, then, to me, people of Ireland, and let the advice I give
you sink deep in your minds.
My first advice to you is to determine on procuring the repeal
of the Legislative Union. That Union is the primary cause of
all the misery, destitution, and poverty of our native land. It is
a work of benevolence and Christian charity to struggle for its
repeal.
lily second advice to you is to look lbr that repeal by no other
means but those that are peat:cable, legal, and ounstitutional.
My third advice to you is to use every possible means to recon-
cile the Protestants and Catholics of Ireland to each other hear.
lily and cordially.
My reasons Air giving this advice are those.
In thejirst place—lreland was the most prosperous country
In the world, under her own domestic Legislature, croon the years
1'782, when she achieved her Independence, until the year 1'794, and subsequent years, when the war and revolutionary principles impeded her progress.
In the second place—The Independence of Ireland was achieved in 17it1 by legal and eonstitutional means. mere was no riot, no confusion, nn injury della to person or property. If we
wish for similar success, let us follow the salutary example set
us in the year 1781
In the third place—Any violation of the law on the part of the
anti- Unionista would strengthen their enemies, by throwing into
the ranks of those enemies all the wito, eonsiderate, and good
men ; because, circumstanced as Ireland is at present, no wise;men, or conalderate men, or pod men, can countenance or sup»
port any attempt at eilbeting, by flare° or violence, that which
we are certain of bringing about by peaceable means, it' we are
permitted to go on peaceably, legally, and constitutionally.
In the fourth place... Any violent measures adopted at pre-
sent, although by well-intentioned pe„rvlna, would naturally and
indeed necessarily assume a rellelotts or sectarian character—
they would produce an inetcorki hostility between Catholics and
Protestants—and lustead of being a struggle for Ireland, would,
at least in natnlX pees, become nothing more than an impious
and disgusting tritb between fellow-countrymen and fellow.
Cillistiabs. Me truth simply is...and this truth should never be
lost sight of—that Ireland is at present totally unfit for asky
forcible
mode of resistance...even If force were necessary...nut It
is not at all.

In the Jtfth placo.-The use of force or Vielettee Is a ctime
against the law of the land, punishable with cleath-end what kr
more awtlilly important, it is an oaliOo against the laws of God,
whose vengeance ought to be expoeted to fall heavily on the
heads of the guilty.
In the sixth place-.'Theses can be nothing more foollat than ll-
legal oaths, or awe,/ tiocieties-they are, in trtitti, oven more
foolish than they are culpable. As to secrOey, U' the matter be
1400 d, It requires no secrecy-on the Conteary, it should be rued*
pubile. It is only criminal muttorit That are concealed, because
they could not bear the lightiriput as to oaths, why should abY
man require to be bound by, oath Ledo what is in itself tight V
That which is wrong le be i tie, is only made doubly weeny by
the intervention of In oath. Much au oath la but a binding
solemnity, but is in Its nature perjury.
4 the seventh place-lt is quite elm le every reflecting mind,
that by peerahlt and legal means the repeal of the 'Union will be
brought about. Every icily in Ireland, except the 00010 knaves and the Inbdiigeo tools of bigotry or of power, is eon.
