OPENING of the ORDINARY SESSION
OF THE STATES-GENERAL.

By the arrival of the Dutch steamer, at a late
hour this afternoon, we have received Dutch
Papers to the 19th inst. We have no time
for comment. The following are extracts :

HAGUE, 01'T. 18.
The Session was opened by his MAJESTY
with the following Speech :---

" High and Mighty Lords,

" Your zealous tielit;erations during the late Extraor-
dinary Scallion of the States-General, and the judgment
and patriotism which you again in miferted, have
not had the result which 1 hoped from them,
—I might reasonably have expected that the
thorough examination of the wishes and complaints
brought forward, especially considering the mani-
fested agreement between the Prince and the Representa-
tives of the peol6, would have had that moral influence
which was necessary to cause order and tranquillity to be
every where restored.

" Hitherto the observance of the fundamental and legal
forms was always placed in the foreground by the first
who brought forward the chief wishes and grievances, but
now the regular course no longer satisfied the violent pro-
ceedings attic leaders of a blind
.40 excited multitude,
they brought about an insurrection attended with violence,
and the efforts of the military power of the State were
unable to quell this insurrection.

" Already before its arrival at Brussels the military
force, which came to bring protection, was hostilely at-
t:►cked -; 'and though preceded by a solemn announcement
of mildness and peace, it met in the city with the most
murderous resistance. The armed rebellion against the
lawful Government has since spread more and more in the
Southern Provinces with such fearful expedition, that for
the security and defence of the faithful northern provinces,
and of their commerce, I have been obliged to take the
necessary measures with respect to the military and naval
force ; have ►trade part of the militia moveable, p►epared
to call out the Landstru►n (local militia), and issued
an invitation to volunteers to arm. The ardour with
which it has been answered, and the new proofs of
attachment to my house which I have received on this oc-
casion have alleviated the grief that fills my heart at the
thought that a band of rebels should have been able to
14,44;0 so important and flourishing a population from the
Clovernment, under which they have obtained a degree of
prosperity and lichee that Boy never before enjoyed, and
found the moat ample potoction fur their political, civil,
and religious rights. . _

1' Illy constant expectation that the greater part of
the population would, on mature reflection, de-
'sire to recover these. blessings, has induced ine to
the resolution to give to my beloved son, the Prince of
orange, the government pro' iryipprp of those parts of the
Southern Provinces that remain faithful, in order, if
possible, to bring bark the recalled provinces by
means of persuasion to legal order. I hove thus by
an administrative separation prepared the development
of the declared sentiments of the States-General in their
late extraordinary session, as far as depended on me, by
which my care is now snore e*ClusirelY confined to the
Northern Provinces, and their power and resources will be
employed alone for their interest, which have at the
Name time proved to all my subjects, and to all Lumpy,
that I have loft nothing untried to bring back those who
have gone astray.
Supported by the consciousness that I have observed
the solemn oath which I have taken to the fundamental
law, and have been unceasingly diligent to promote to the
utmost of oly power the welfare of the people of the Ne.
therlends, I look forward vivit4 (faintness to the issue of those
maleavonse, and of the deliberation* of my allies, who
have guaranteem this kingdom, and have made • the present
state of its Southern Province the
.suhject of fieir serious
meditationi.
" The army has in general made itself worthy of my
approbation by its valour, accompanied with moderation ;
but I must lament that latterly so large a part
of it, misled by erroneous notions or dereirful promises,
has forgotten their oath and their duty, and abandoned
their colours,

" In the.circumNtances in which th►' kingdom now is,
and which are so different from a state of peace, I have
found it necessary to open your present Session at the
Untie. lam happy to he able to inform you on
this occasion, that foreign Powers continue to give
,►ssurauces of their sincere interest and friendly senti-
ments.

" It is no less agreeable to inform you, that the courage
and perseverance of my troops have put an end to the war
in the island Of Java, and the other settlements in the
East enjoyed, according to the latest accounts, perlegt
tranquillity.
The harvest, in cons( pence of the long mins, ha., nn
14 whole, not been favourable; I have taken all the pre-
vacations in my power that the wants of the poor and in-
Aigent may be provided for in the ensuing winter.
" The internal stattenf the kingdom is for the present
an insurmountable olistrtele to the forming of an esti-
mate of the expenditure and revenui.- of the kingdom
for the next year on good grounds, I have therefote pre-
fermi! to reserve, as'far its practicable, the continuance of
What air arly exists.. . A -project of law to this and will be
laid Wore you.

of your late - extraordinAry 'Steal% 1. Iwo S4kva g 1"4"

sure to provide for the present for the urgent dig.
bursements of the treasury, and the patriotism of the
people makes me hope it will succeed. The measure
must, however, he followed by several legal enactments,
which will be laid before you during the session.
4. Whatever difficulties the present state of affairs
may cause, the engagements respecting the redemp-
tion of the public debt must be fulfilled, and I mean
to propose to you a law for the buying up and redeeming
of this debt.

" 'shall also have to call for the co-operation of your
High Migbtinesses to check and punish the efforts of- evil
disposed persons to trouble the provinces that remain faith-
ful, and if possible to spread the rebellion to them. I
have meantime judged it absolutely necessary to take
measures of precaution with respect to foreigners and
travellers.

" The rebellion in the southern provinces makes it im-
possible to introduce on the Ist of February next year, the
national legislation and judicial institutions as I have
promised to do in compliance with your reasonable
wishes. For the same reason, the establishment
of the High Conn of Justice must be deferred.
Your High Mightinesses, the rapid course of the events
which have shaken the kingdom within a few weeks may
affect others of our institutions ; the issue of these events
is not to be foreseen, and the wholly unexpected news re•
ceived from Antwerp to-day is a new proof of the daily
progress of the actual separation between the two parts of
the kingdom.
" I look, however, to the issue with confidence,
because my conscience is tranquil, I can still depend on
your co-operation, on that of the faithiul northern pro-
vinces, on the support of my allies, who will constantly
maintain the political system of Europe, and I am at the
head of a people whose respect for religion affords the best
pledge of the protecting care of the Almighty."
The King left the hall amidst shouts of " Long live
'he King," and both on going and on his return, was re-
ceived with acclamations by the multitude, whom the fine-
ness of the day attracted. It is said that Messrs. de la
Coster and Von Gobbleschroy, have hesitated to sign the
proclamation of the Prince of Orange of the 16th.—
Tile latter, it is skid, has sent his resignation as
Minister of State, and the first is said to be ex-
pected this evening. Yesterday there were a nne
disturbances at Antwerp, three persons were killed and
some wounded. On the approach of a considerable corps
of armed men our troops left Lier yesterday and returned
to Antwerp.
