CONSPIRACY AT BRUSSELS.

The following reflections on the conspiracy at Brus-
sels are made by the Courrier Beige :-
0. When Europe reads the names and titles of General
Count Vandermeer, General Baron Vandersmissca,
Major-General Lecharlier, Colonel Parent, him who
took the Louvre, Military-Intendant Van Parys, the
Commandant of the wounded of September, and of others
who made themselves illustrious during our glorious
days, Europe will say to herself—' This was a serious
affair, it must have had deep root in the country, and.
consequently great chances of success.' However, all
this when viewed closely will be found to merit no other
appellative than a Conspiration des paniers perces.
They are all men who had nothing to lose, and every-
thing to gain, by a general overthrow. They may all
be enrolled in that immense legion of fallen angels
who are in constant revolt against Heaven. One
might say that the Tribunal of Commerce and its.
officers were the real instigators of the rebellion--
Never, in truth, bad any attempt at revolution less
chances of success thaw this, and if, as was a tone time
eontcmplated, these petty Catilines bad been suffered to
make their appearance in the streets with their flags,
one half of them the Orange and the other half
the Radical colours, it would have been taken for
a ridiculous masquerade, and treated as such. They
were to act, it seems, in the night, and begin their
work with fire and sword ; for most of them were urea
of courage and resolution, with nothing to lose but their
own valveless heads, while they had millions of plunder
before them. The most lamentable part of thee
advancementssome
affair is, that they had seduced by their doctrines,

chil-

were to discharge their men on the day for executing
the conspiracy. One of the band of the
corps
of Guides
having been discharged for misconduct, ho complained
to General Vandetsmissen, who kept his papers.
saying—, My friend, in a few days I shall have a..
good place for you.' The conspirators intended co
set fire to the military magazine of forage, is order
to divert the attention of the police. In the mean-
while the conspirators held their meeting outride the
Namur Gate. They were to lay hands at one and the
sane time on the Colonel of Gendarmerie, the Com-
mandant of Brussels, and the Minister of War, whereby
they would paralyze the garrison, gaining over the
non-commissioned officers, by proclaiming them all
officers, in the name of the new Minister of War,
Count Vandermeer, the Commander-in-Chief Vander-
missen, and Colonel Crehen, of the artillery, all of-'
whom had promised themselves these high posts under
f
their imaginary Government. We

sent Government, and establish a provisional one, until
the comspirators should agree among themselves as
to the character of that which was
to. be permanent;
for they were men
of so many different opinions.
that they had not been able to come to an.
understanding
on this fundamental point. This, how-
ever, in all probability, did not much disturb tire
minds of these gentry ; for their most essential ob-
ject
was to have the public
he treasury in their hands for
24 hours, and imitating the intention of Barcelona, to
impose a forced loan of a few millions on our Moderados,
who happen to be the most wealthy of these fishers in.
troubled waters."

HOOD, ESQ.—Hood,
editorship of this periodical, seems determined to keep
up its stock of laughter, and retains all the comic writers
in his train. Mrs. Trollope disports her smart satire ;
Mr. Jerrold revels in that peculiar sarcasm which com-
bines the: ludicrous with the painful in so severe a de-
gree; Mr. Hood himself grows fresh with new adventure,
told in his own unrivalled style of quaint wad punning,
freedom ; and last, not least, Poole, with his genuine
and gentlemanly humour, wakes all sorts of pleasant
merriment in the reader's mind. Mr. Poole, this month,
not only continues his admirable story of Phineas.
Quiddy, but delights with a separate social skit, entitled
"The Advantages of Belonging to a Club," in which
the growling spirit of a discontented clubite is most face-
tiously pourtrayed. The club is the Pangrowlean, and
the paper consists of the memoranda of one of its mem-
bers, who has the pleasant nomenclature of Elector
Boreall.' "—Morning Post.
If you cannot avoid a quarrel with a scamp, let
your lawyer manage it rather than yourself. No man
sweeps his own chimney, but employs a chimney-
sweeper,
who has no objection to dirty work, because it is his
trade.
