If, notwithstanding all sacrifices to preserve
peace, we should be threatened with war, I should not he-
sitate to appeal to the Belgian people, awl I hope that it
"Ili, without exception, rally round its sovereign for the de-
feace of the country, and tl,e national independence."
Mite King of HOLLAND'S reasons for re-.
fusing to abide by the decision of the
Conference at London, must be read to be
understood, and those who have any curiosity
that way may refer to the documents.
As the Russians have now actually crossed
the Vistula, we may daily expect to bear
Important news. They threaten Warsaw with a
siege. We shall see.

St. Petersburgh Papers to the 10th, and
Hamburg to the 20th instant, have been re-
ceived. The former give some details of the
measures adopted at St. Petersburgh for arrest-
ing the progress of the cholera morbus ; while
the latter state, on the authority of Berlin ac-
counts (very questionable), that the Russians
have entirely broken up the corps of Generals
GIELGUD and CHRAPOWSK I, in Lithuania.
They even go so far as to say, that GIELGUD
laid down his arms at Tilsit on the 11th. We
do not believe it :-

ST. PETERSBURCIF, JULY B.—ln order to remove the
apprehensions that may have been conceived of the sup-
prsssion of the fair at Nischni Novogorod for this year, the
Utiister of the Interior (Count Kakrowsky) has an-
nounced that the fair will be held as usual, and that the
Emperor has been pleased to send his Aide-de-Camp,
General. Golinistchoff, to Nischni Novogorod, to take all
necessary measures that the business of the fair may not
be impeded, as well as to satisfy the merchants, and pre-
vent their being subjected to any vexatious proceedings,
and to afford the moist prompt assistance in case the cholera
Lulld manifest itself during the fair.

n from the Governor-General of the capi,al, in which
he observes that, when the cholera broke out in Moscow,
in September last, his Majesty went to that city to en•
courage the inhabitants to take the necessary measures to
arrest the progress of the disorder, and with the aid of the
bivine protection, these measures had been successful.

ajesty ordered the same measures to be adopted which
7d proved so useful in Moscow. He visited the city

Persuaded the common people that the police and the phy-
sicians had adopted useless and vexatious measures. Cre-
dulous and inconsiderate persons believed these fables,
d, neglecting their own affairs, began to collect in
groups in the streets, to talk about the pretended oppres-
Sion of the people. In their infatuation, they resolved to
!set the patients at liberty who, as they fancied, were arbi-
rarily confined in the hpitals, broke into two temporary
lazarettos, dispersed theos patients, and committed such ex-
cesses that some lives were lost.
The Emperor, being informed of these distressing occur-
;:enees, ordered the Government to recommend to the in-
abitants of this capital the example of those of Alof-
t had,
