end calls forth a riltoll of.thc declaration that. thf
family of °imp, hai ceased to reign in Belgintn.
The-pacific proclamation, of the Prinee,of Orange Is
not published in the Brussels papers, but we:find
prominently exposed in them a second proclamtt
tion of the King, dated the 7th inst., in whic
his Majesty intimates that he has abandoned td
their fate, or to, the counsels of his son, the did
turbed. districtit, and has' concentrated his paternal
eases'on_the provinces which still remain faithful t
his crown end family. In this extraordinary dodu!.
ment, his Majesty invites his still loyal subjects to
rise en mas:te in defence of their country, as if he
rather dreaded en- invasion than aimed at a re-con-
quest. It YWLIMS a call la arms sounded through the
trumpet of_ alarm. The Jacobinigal party in Bel-
gium certainly employ language which, if they were
supported by theAtensible-partof the nation as well
as by the great bulk ot the inferior .orders,, would
justify no common apprehension.- They speak it
the most insullinuterme of: the,.King, and heap
every possible calamity on his Dutch sUbjects. HavS.
ing, by their resistance to his authority, compelled
him to the use'of force, with the hope of restoring
order, they ascribe to him personally all the &ilea&
04'4 which were the consequences of their struggle
with his troops; and, forgetting their own disoboe
dience, accuse him of cruelty and a-sassinatioa. flip
call on his Dutch subjects to arms may therefore not
he useless, should the spirit which now reigns at
Brussels spread over the ten southern provinces.--4

We ley before our readers the accounts of the
quarter ended 10th October, 1830. ThedeticiencY
on the qnarter ended 10th October, 1830, as comS
pared with the corremiponding quintet.. of 1829,
is 188,8311. On the year ended 10th October,
1830, as compere:l with the year ended 10th Octo-
ber, 1829); it is 9137564 The decrease is chiefly
in the Excise, 149,6021. On, the Customs ;here is
iecrease of 40,6931. The Petit ,011 ice exhibits
an increase of 12,006/., and the Stamps a decrease
of. 46,3201. On the whole, we believe the public
will be surprised that the falling off on the Quqrter's:
Revenue is not greater than 188,831/. The nation.
Lois been prfpared in various journala,. laying claim,
to the possession of .the confidence of Cloyertheeet;
for a decrease of upwards of half a million on the
quarter, so that the comparatively small decrease
will almost be considered as equal to an increase.:
Was it intended by dwelling so often before-hand on
the immense failing off in the Revenue of the quer-
ter, and accounting for it by' the holding buck of,
the Deer Ditty, and by the repeal of other duties,
to cause the small increase to be the more (nmity,
taken for a considerable increase?' We confess that
the accounts of the falling if in the Revenue of the
quartei rather surprised us, because during the
whole of the qeerter the, industry of the country has
been prosperous. We hurdly remember a period
when the various branches of our manufactures were
in greater activity;--Marrying Chronicle.
Among the rulers of the Continent, whom the
present momentous crisis has thrown into alarm, the
only one that seems to, have acted with that wis-
Idom, which shows him not incapable of deriving
instruction from the calamities which Other Princes
have brought upon their own heeds, is the chief
of the miniature sovereignty of Saxe-;Gotha. this
conduct might well serve us an example to some
of those despots who live in continual dread of the
pm)oPle upon whose rights they trample. By ac-
counts which we published the other day, it imp-
pears that the Duke of Saxe-Gotha invited a num-
ber of the citizens of various classes to wait on him,
awl informed theM that he had called them to-
gether to request, them to bconsider that at ell
times, but eepscially in such times tic the present,
it was the-duty of goad citizens to meet their Prince.

out reserve, any well-grounded compleints and tell-',
suitable Wishes .41 order that the, fernier might be
removed, and the latter, if possible, complied with.
Ile therefore culled upon them to epeek to him freely,
dind tell idto, withone reserve, whether their fellow-,
citizen's had any wishes or requests to snake to him.
This address was received with time feelings of eon-
Oder* which it was calculated to inspire, for, as no
popular disturbances had taken place within his little
territories', it was, not the result of servile terror, but
of ,manly prudence; and we are told that the citi-
zens, as the Duke requested, communicated their
opinions and wishes in the most important points
connected with their civil relations. The accounts of
this interview then go,on, to say that " the Duke
listened with Madness,: agreed with them in many
points, corrected some misconceptions, and assured
them of his willingness to, give them speedily what-
ever Might be for their satisfaction and
~ bdvantage.
!le then desired 'they would state their wishes in
writing, that he might time snore readily take them
into consideration." We ,refer to the proceed-
ing of the puke (if Saxe-Gotha an example of
the lino of conduct which every Continental So-
vereigh, who fears that his subjects may catch
the contagion of the 'French anti Belgic revolu-
tions, would adopt, if wisdom presided over the
