The Journal of Luxemburg contains the following ar

tide :

The Minister of Foreign Atlairs in Belgium, relying on
the state quo in the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg, ap-
plied to the Military Government of the fortress, setting
forth, that in this state of things there seemed no reason
why public functionaries and others, who were accepted
officers in Belgium, should be hindered from freely enter-
ing the city, and that consequently all prohibitions on this
head should be revoked. The military authorities, before
giving an answer to the Minister's note, consulted the Ger.
man Diet. The result was a decision which we are able
to lay before our readers. It is as follows :

EXTRACT FROM THE SPECIAL PROTOCOL OT 25T11 BITTING

Of THE GERMAN DIET, ♦UG. 11. 1831.

" Section 1. insurrections in the Grand Duchy of
Luxemburg, repression of the insurgents in Luxemburg,
and measures of defence against the Belgians.
" As the Diet has received no communication either
from hit Majesty the King of the Netherlands, or from
the conference at London, the object of which was to jus-
tify the pretensions that the Belgians have addressed
to the Governor of the fortress of Luxemburg, amd
that consequently there are no grounds to enter
into negotiations on the subject, the government of the
fortress is desired to be attentive not to suffer itself to he
led into an error relatively to that conduct which it should
observe with regard to the authorities and subjects of the
Belgian Government, which conduct is marked out to it
by the resolutions of the Diet, which is by no means dis-
posed to make any change in the rules which it has laid
down for the guidance of the government of the said
fortress.
" Sect. 2. The legations of Austria and Prussia are
requested to acquaint the Conference at London with the
pretensions of the Belgic Government, and also of the de-
cision taken on the subject, and to observe to the Con-
forence that, if as stated in the public journals, proposals
see been addressed to the King of the Netherlands and to
the Belgic Government, in which the Conference has
offered its good offices, that the sta-u quo may be main-
tained till the end of the negotiations by the Gentian Con-
federation in the territory of Luxemburg, which belongs
to the Confederation, the Diet thinks it is the
less called upon to declare itself on this subject, as
it has had no communication on it from the King of tie
Netherlands, or from the Conference at London. The
German Diet meantime expects, with perfect confidence,
that in the course of the negotiation the rights of the Con-
federation, and of the House of Nassau, over the Grand
Duchy of Luxemburg, will be taken into strict considera-
tion, and that no measure will be decided upon, the result
of which would be to lead to changes either in the integrity
of the territory, or the relations of the Grand Duchy, with-
out the previous consent of his Majesty the King of the
Netherlands, as the Grand Duke of the German Confe-
deration.
Major-Gen. Goedecke, who presides over the Govern-
ment of the Grand Duchy, has issued a proclamation. In
the preamble he recapitulates the inconsiderate and absurd
revolution which was imported into the Grand Duchy from
Belgium, and seconded by the inhabitants, who were mis-
led by vain declarations, and, in spite of the efforts
of the Magistrates, who demonstrated that Luxem-
burg was a special sovereignty of the King, as Grand
Duke, and quite distinct from Belgium. Yet in the end,
notwithstanding the furious articles of the revolutionary
Journals, the exaggerated pretensions of the usurping
Government, the bombastic speeches in the self. styled
National Congri ss, and the Constitution engendered by
it, the whole fabric of sophistry and absurdity fell in
pieces before the power of truth, and the rebellion was
ebiged to avow that all that had been done for Belgium
could not concern the Grand Duchy, and that to unite
this the cession of it by the Sovereign was necessary. But
the legitimate Sovereign has repelled this usurpation in
state quo by his victorious arms, and if France has inter-
fered it is by its own declaration only, according to the
tenor of the protocols which it has signed, and intends to

maintain.
In consequence the Major General, President of the
Commission of General Government in the Grand Duchy
of Luxemburg, complying with the orders he has received
from his Majesty the King of the Netherlands, Grand
Duke of Luxemburg, decrees as follows :
Art. 1 . The inhabitants of the said Grand Duchy en-
joying a nationality independent of that of Belgium, sanc-
tioned by the solemn treaties of 1915, and recognised by
the protocols of the conference of London, ought, as such,
to abstain from taking any part i❑ the elections, which are
to take place on the 29th August and following days, for
the nomination of the Senators and repre-entatives who
arc destined to form the new Legislative body of Belgian..
Art. 2. The inhabitants of the city of Luxemburg, who,
notwithstanding the present notice, shall take part in the
elections in question, shall be excluded from the city, and
cannot again return to it.
Done at Luxemburg, Hotel of the General Government
of the Grand Duchy; and signed by the Major-General
President of the Commission of Government of the Grand
Duchy.

DE GOEDECKE GELLE, Secretary.

Aug. 24, 1831.
SCUTARI, JULY 16.—The Grand Vizier, with his
whole force, is advancing against our Paella, and has his
head. quarters at Olessio. Mustapha has retreated into his
fortress, which is already besieged by the Sultan's troops.
A deputation is gone to Olession, to offer the subrnissivi
of our city to the Grand Vizier, and we may therefore
daily expect to see it occupied by the troops of the -
verninent. It is to be hoped that Mustapha Paellas ll
then he delivered up to his own people, and that then the
miseries of war will be put an end to.

Several correspondents suggest that the day of
the Coronation should be kept as a hulyday, and all business
be suspended.
Notwithstanding the all-engrossing interest of
the Reform question, the public mind set ms likely to be
diverted from it by the appearance of a work which is cal-
culated to excite the moat extraordinary and lasting im-
pression r we allude to the " Memoirs of Lavalette,",
name which must be familiar to all English readers, since
a s rrt of national interest seems to attach to him whose
life was saved by our own countrymen. The narrative of
his esc.ipe. aided by his heroic wife, possesses all the at•
traction of a romance, while the political disclosures render
the work, in an historical point of view, one of the most
valuable that has ever appeared.
