HOLLAND AND FRANCE.

The following is the stibstince of the despatclraddressed
bathe Minister of Foreign Affairs at the Ilaeue to Gene-
telagal, the Dutch Envoy at Paris, which we stated yes-
terday had remained uncotrmiunicated to the Dutch people:
" HAGUE, Atm. 9.
The French Charge d'Affaires has read to me a letter
"il"
ieh Count Sehastiani addressed to him on the 4th
?tent. This letter states that our Sovereign had
_r`nunaed. the armistice, and begun ho.tilities;—that
he
; thus violated the independence and neutrality
Etigium, recognised by. the great Powers of
:ur°Pe. In this State of things, the Kieg of the Bel-
-41114a had requested the aid of the King of the French,
e,.44 tha be would obtain it if he wanted it to repel an un-
t aggression. M. de la Rochefaucault was further di-
ed to declare to me, that if the Dutch army did not
retrograde to thin side of the lire of armistice, it would
turned
to contend with a French army, and that if the King
S deaf ear to the advice of a friendly Sovereign,
, s, tde la Rochefaueault would quit the Hague, after
avin,,
communicated the said letter to the Ministers of
ngland,-Austria,Prussia, and Russia.:
L." My circular despatch of the 24 of August will not
""at reached Paris till after Count Sehaatiani had written
and
sent off the above letter. My explanations would
otherwise have convinced his Excellency, that the King, i
tYOrdering his troops to enter Belgium, has violated
etthen the independence nor neutrality of that country,
and,ibe must deeply regret that at Paris it has been
led proper to judge of that Step from au ex-parte
"statement transmitted from Brussels, and betore having
Zeived any explanation from the Hague. We are not
are that the independence and neutrt.lity of Belgium
I;tiiv.e been recognized by the five Powers, unless
1,16114111 accepted the conditions of separation esta-
ej."ed by those Powers themselves, and so far from con-
th4lll or endangering that independence and neutrality,
e !lurch of the Dutch troops has no other object than to
1:4,2e the coercive measures announced by the Five
P~eras in the event of Belgium refusing to accept ap-
t`'Llt Aof the 12th Protocol. To call this march an
ja-i4tit aggression is tantamount to declaring that the Five
Oh have committed an injustice in establishing the
uataes
!)f. separation contained in the said appendix, and in
ranee
h the principle, that in order to obtain their :weep-
'l the Belgians, coercive measures, if necessary,
"um be resorted to.
g " You will request the Minister of Foreign Affairs of
ante to peruse the present despatch ; and this perusal
11 Ihope, satisfy him that the march of our troops has
tba least reference to that part of the Belgian question
which has been considered to interest Europe, but that it
e:elusively concerns the domestic relations between Hui-
l44.and Belgium.
uLIV: persuade ourselves that this expose will be
theT`'snt to . make the French Government renounce
r intention of sending a French army into Bel-
aliun'• However, if this should be the case, you
declare to the Count Sebastiani that the King's
army solely destined as a coercive measure for en-
z.reing the acceptance of the appendix A by the Bel-
to by no means intended to act against one of the
f !ve Powers, all of whom his Majesty considers as his
:I:enada and allies, and consequently, that if a French al my
°:id present itself, the Dutch troops would retrograde to
th
aide of our limits.
„
te rV°,lr Excellency will lose no time in informing toe of
"e fault of this communication, and in the meanwhile 1
remain, .!ae.

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENIN,G,, AUGUST 16, 1831.

The French Papers of Sunday, and those
- ' 44ted Monday, have been received, but their
rttents are only. important as giving the Speech
. , (3f Marshal SOUL?, the Minister of War, who
. • announced to the Chamber the startling fact
fat the French troops would not evacuate
,e Belgian territory, until assured against
the
of the aggression to repel which
they had been sent ! This is just what we
expected. Now the point of " assurance" will
fiord the French what latitude they please;
4114 being rather disposed to remain they will
4t be in any hurry to understand the terms of
1143, ; durance, or, if understood, they will not deem
!Rodent to believe the Dutch, because they have
deceived them before ! Marshal SOUL?, however, qualifies this
v.'. Matter by declaring that there will be no war,
tor that the Dutch troops should evacuate Del-
' eium• But if the Dutch move off, will not the
reluctant march of the French create some queer
4uBPieions ? And may not these
pare the way to
warlike misunderstanding, if' •
nothing more
:etions take place ? For our own parts we care
t,°l what becomes of the Belgians, so long as
• he far nobler cause of the Poles is sacrificed by
Cowardice pr treachery of the present French
°vernment.
But there may be a private reason for Louis
pu
14'IPPg not recalling the army of the North
ce Preent from Belgium—and that is, the
e:talli odium and unpopularity which would
, tn to himself and his Ministers, who after
he I.ng such a clap-trap display of mock-
role energy in sending 40,00 men into
4.,ni, Should recall the " brave army"
• Atafr-lt one shot having been 4red. Such a
has e would be not only mortifying) but per-
, opeolilhe dangerous in the present temper of the
he e and the enthusiasm of the army. And
Who my two sons"—the hopes of France,
the
je Martial devotion in hastening to the wars
enu.ni,ll-g. has so frequently turned to good ae-
'fthat a disappointment to them this slid.
