LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 5, 1831.

An express from Paris, dated N'Vednesday
afternoon, five o'clock, brings information that
up to that period Count MOLE, who had
been charged with the formation of a new
Ministry, had not completed his task. Nor
do we think he will be able to com-
plete a Ministry that shall stand a week
unless he resolve upon an immediate re-
cognition of Polish independence, and set to in
right good earnest to assist the Poles. After all we
suspect that Louis PHILIP will be constrained
to apply to the liberal party, and take advantage
of LAFAYETTE'S services, to recover his lost
popularity with the influential part of the people.
Nothing but a liberal line of policy will answer
now, and in adopting that course the KING
must be as prompt as decided. Let him
keep on good terms with England, and trust
to fortune for the rest. He has all along
been cajoled and insulted by Russia, Prussia,
Austria, and even Holland, and can he now
doubt what course to take ? If he do, the
hour of repentance is at hand, with this bit-
ter assurance, that it will be too late !
The Times express states that the Ministers
positively retired were MM. C. PERIER, SE-
BASTIAN!, and Louts ; those remaining in,
SOULT, DE RIGNY, and D'A Room All
still unsettled as to the character of the
new Government, the general supposition
is, that it would be only a provisionary
one. The Austrian Commander-in-Chief
in Gallicia had died of the cholera. Baron
FRIMONT, the Austrian Commander in
Italy, had died in Milan, and the Archduke
RUDOLPH of Austria.

So, then, war has actually been commenced
by the infatuated—the obstinate—and the
hypocritical King of HOLLAND against the
Belgians ! The Prince of ORANGE has
issued a proclamation to the army on the
same day on which the KING his father has
pronounced the word " forwards !"—a word
which he will have good reason soon to repent.
King LEOPOLD has also taken the field, and
proceeded to Antwerp, where, by this time, the
war is no doubt carried on with spirit. The
following are extracts, in which it will be seen
that Prince ALBERT, of Prussia, is expected at
the Hague, an ominous sign of the part which
Prussia means to take. But that KING is playing
as dangerous a game as his Dutch MAJESTY,
as events will shortly prove to both their con-

fusion
:
THE HAGUE, A uc. 2.—llia Royal Highness the Prince
of Orange has just published the following Order of the
Day :---" Called by the will of my father and my King, I
take the command of the army, I. place myself at your
head on the same day in wl ich he pronounced the word
forwards !' The testimonies of affection and fidelity which
you have never ceased to give to the King and the country,
and which may serve as a sublime example to the people of
Europe, give me a sure pledge of the valour which
you are going to display on the field of battle. There,
perhaps, in a few days, we shall have to combat for the
true interests of the country, and to obtain advantageous
conditions of separation from those provinces which have
withdrawn themselves from the authority of the same
Prince for whom we are ready to sacrifice our lives and
our dearest interests. But at the same time he has re-
course to arms, the King, as the true father.of his subjects,
does not decline negociations, ITwever fruitless they have
hitherto been. His Plenipotentiaries to the Conference at
London, will then continue to defend the rights of the na-
tion. For myself, I feel the whole importance of the
honourable task imposed on me by the King. It will
doubtless he rendered easy by your courage, on which I

Bras and Waterloo, the relations which we now resume
had been suspended. Since that time only, events at on
important and happy had passed, when, last year, deplore.able circumstances afflicted our country. My duties, the
will of the King, have called tae to take an active part in
the late political affairs of the Netherlands. All my ac-
tions, words, and intentions had but one object, that of
preserving the kingdom from the disasters which were at
that time to be foreseen as possible, and the effects of which
we new all feel. The means which I employed to attain
that object having failed, I must believe that I erred in
the choice of them. The motives which guided me
were, however, perfectly pure. I hope now to
convince you, sword in hand, that the blood
of the Nassaus flows in my veins, and that no sacrifice
will appear to me too great to insure the happiness of this
my native country, for whose independence our fore.
fathers have so often fought with success against armies
far superior to them in numbers, but never in courage.
" WILLIAM PRINCE OF ORANGE.
" Head-quarters, Breda, Aug. 1, 1831."
We hear that his Royal Highness Prince Frederick is
to second his brother in hie important post.
BREDA, AUG. I.—The long desired word " forward.,"
has at length been spoken,—the head-quarters leave us
to-day,—the troops bid adieu to the camp and their can •
tonments, and the thunder of the cannon will soon an-
nounce the beginning of hostilities, that the sword may
obtain that which forbearance has failed to effect, and that
the rights of Holland, disregarded in the negociations,
may be assisted by valour.
Tate HAGUE, AUG. is said that his Royal High-
ness Prince Albert of Prussia will arrive on the 20th
instant at the Loo.
This morning at five o'clock the battalion of Friesland
militia, which had been here in garrison ever since the
10th of April, left this town in consequence of orders re-
ceived yesterday. It has gone to Rotterdam' whence it
will he conveyed by steam-boats to Bois-le-Due.
