The contract for completing the provisions for the ci-
tadel was concluded this morning on moderate conditions.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 24.—The discussion of the address
was continued yesterday in the Chamber of Repre-
sentatives. The Minister for Foreign Affairs en-
deavoured to answer the reproaches made to the
Ministry on account of the evacuation. The Cham-
ber, we acknowledge, had a right to know the con-
sequences of this evacuation. France and England had a
right to take, without consulting us, the measures calcu-
lated to carry into effect the engagemetts which they had
contracted. As to the reproach that the intervention is
only for the evacuation of the territory, and not for the
complete execution of the 24 articles, he quotes article I
of the note of the 21st October, which seems at once to
decide the contrary. He maintains, that in consenting to
the evacuation the Government bas not exceeded its
powers; the consent of the Legislature was not necessary,
because the question was not the conclusion of a new
treaty, but the execution of a treaty ratified with the con-
sent of the Chambers. With respect to the complete
execution of the 24 article., he could give some informa-
tion ; but there were several points still the subject of
negotiatio❑ on which it was his duty to preserve silence.
The Minister of the Interior defended the conduct of
the Ministry, which only carried into effect the intentions
of the preceding Ministry. He endeavoured to show that
the Allied Powers had a right to decide on the mode in
which the treaty which they had guaranteed should be
carried into effect, and the Belgians could not take an active
part unless the Powers failed in their engagements.
M. de Muelenaere spoke nearly to the same effect. He
thought an attack by the Belgian army alone would not
have led to any decisive advantage, because we have no
naval force, without which we could not contend with
Holland. As for the army being humiliated by its inac-
tivity, the honour of an army, he said, consisted in obe-
M. lieittftbein-said it was monstrous to cede to King
William 400,000 Belgians, without being certain that be
would assent to the whole treaty. The independence of
Belgium, he said, had long since been lost : and the next
thing to be expected was the restoration, which, said he to
the Minister, will be the necessary result of your system.
M. Rotiiano proposed to change the third paragraph,
and to say--" Belgium has seen the King it has chosen
successively recognised by most of the Powers, and its flag
is now admitted in most foreign ports."
M. Jullien said it would be better to name the Powers
that have recognised us, and the ports in which our flag
is admitted.
The Minister for Foreign Affairs said, Belgium is re-
cognised by the five great Powers, by Denmark, Sweden,
Sardinia, the United States, and Switzerland.
The Minister of the Interior—l will ask M. Jullien a
question in answer to his :—la what poet is the Belgian
flag not admitted ?

Jullien—l shall not go far ; it is impossible for you
to go from Ostend to Antwerp unless you put your flag in
your pocket.

M. Robiano's amendment was adopted.
The fourth paragraph was agreed to, and the debate
adjourned to the next day.—Brussels Papers, Nov. 25.

The accounts from Berlin to the 22d of
November by the Hamburg mail, are very
pacific. In fact, the Prussians are afraid to pro-
voke a general war, now that the French are pre-
pared to give them a good reception :--
HANOVER, Nov. 19.—Several Prussian regiments, on
their way to the Rhine, have lately passed by the military
route through this kingdom.
UPPER HESSE, Nov. 12.—Prussian troops have been
for some days marching towards the west, by the route
agreed upon, through our province. The road more to
the north, through Waldeck, is also covered with Prussian
troops of all arms, especially considerable trains of ar-
tillery. All the troops we have seen are of the line, but it is
said that the Saxon Laudwehr regiments will soon follow.
BERLIN, Nov. 20.—We have no farther accounts of
the entrance of the French into Belgium, and with re-
spect to our armaments the opinion begins to prevail that
a general war is not so likely as it was thought a fortnight
ago. No more Mops than those already specified, which
are to be stationed along the Belgian frontiers from Aix-
la Chapelle to Gocheim, have received marching orders.
General Von Hake, who has been long a valetudi-
narian, is succeeded as Minister of war by the very ab:e
and experienced General Groat-ran.

We have accounts from Algiers to the 28th
ult. It appears that the French Government
was likely to conclude a sort of treaty with the
Bey of CONSTANTINE, by which 0 tribute was to

ANTwEar, Nov. 23.—The navigation continues to be
free. Perfect order prevails in the city. The head-quar-
ters of Marshal Gerard were on the point of being re-
moved to Borgenhout (a suburb of Antwerp).
General Chasse haw, within these few days, caused 20
pieces of cannon to be placed at the Tete de Flandre. Since
yesterday morning the Dutch have been pulling down all
the houses there.
Three lighters laden with provisions arrived at the
citadel yesterday.
Eleven more Dutch vessels have been captured by the
combined fleets.
Colonel Craddock, Commissioner from Great Britain to
the head-quarters, is lodged at Merxem.
The garrison of the city of Antwerp does not at this
moment exceed 5,000 men, but a corps of 15,000 Belgian
troops might be assembled in the city in two hours.
A battalion of Civic Guards (Ist ban) is going to leave
Antwerp ; it will be rep'aced by two battalions of the 6th
Regiment of the line.
The camp between Beret and Grovendonek is nearly
finished. It is occupied by the 9th Regiment of the line
and 3d of Yagers.
The communications with Holland still take place through
Brecla, for the convenience of commerce, and under the
reciprocal inspection of both Governments. It is thought
they will continue even when the citadel shall be attacked,
if there is no aggression on the part of Holland.
No summons has yet been made to General Chasse ; but
it is generally said that secret parleys have been entered
into with him to know his intentions with respect to the
city. He refuses to give any answer whatever.
Several officers of engineers say that the first operation
will be to get possession of the Tete de Flandre : in order
to attain this object, a dike at Burght will be pierced, in
order to let off the waters which surround the Tete de
Flandre.
Up to this hour (half-past four o'clock, the 23d) no
Belgian posts within the limits of the fortress have
been relieved by the French troops. All this will be
done simultaneously, and not till the preparations for the
siege shall be terminated.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 24.—His Majesty set out this morn•
ing at eight o'clock for Malines and Boom. His Majesty
will return to Brussels this evening. A report gains
ground that Colonel Craddock has sent toLondon for fresh
instructions before deciding on the question whether the
Eiglish Government could give its consent to the eventual
entrance of the French troops into Antwerp.
OSTEND, Nov. 22.—This morning one of our fishing
boats came into port, with an English officer on board,
who came to make inquiries respecting the entrance and
advance of the French army into B lgium. He left again
at half-past two to rejoin the combined fleet, off the isle of
Walcheren. Our basins are crowded with vessels.
