LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 11, 1832.

The continued defence of the citadel of
Antwerp appears to have occasioned much dis-
aPPointment at the Foreign-office, although a
•ery small portion of the time has elapsed which
Marshal GERARD and other French officers
Considered requisite for the reduction of that
fortress. It is feared that the King of HOLLAND,

previously so obstinate and determined, when
the chances on his side appeared so desperate,
Will now that he has had an opportunity of trying
the skill of his officers and the mettle of his
troops, refuse to listen to any of the terms of
accommodation proposed by Lord PALMER-
STON, even should the defence of the citadel be
less protracted than the KING expects it to be.
It is to be remembered that the reduction of the
citadel of Antwerp is only one point of the treaty
of the 15th of November, and that if it were
settled to-morrow all the other points would
remain open for dispute or negotiation. Prussia,
Russia, and Austria, have consented to the siege
of Antwerp because they were unprepared, at
the moment, to assist the King of HOLLAND,
and knew not the extent to which that Sovereign
could assist himself; but will they permit the con-
tinuance of hostilities to compel the Dutch KING
to yield on all those points of the treaty against
Which they have declared, or at least respecting
Which they have signified their objection to any
Other mode of settlement than friendly negotia-
tion ? The citadel of Antwerp being placed in
the hands of the Belgians; the French will natu-
rally require the immediate consent of the King
of HOLLAND to the execution of the other and
much more important conditions of the treaty of
the 15th of November, inasmuch as it will be
Impossible for Belgium to exist as an independent
state without the enjoyment of the privileges and
advantages guaranteed by that treaty. Then will
arise the question of interference or non-inter-
ference by the Powers whose Plenipotentiaries
have withdrawn from the Conference. Then
will be solved the already much-debated point
whether the demonstrations of the French in Bel-
glum have been of such a character as to con-
vince the Holy Alliance of the folly of assisting
the King of HOLLAND, or whether the resistance
made by that Monarch has been of a nature to
warrant a belief among the despotic Powers of
the continent that they could with a fair pros-
pect of success attempt to pia down the consti-
tutional system in France, and for some time
longer maintain despotism in the countries under

their Government. To us it seems clear that if the
I French were to be six months before Antwerp,
and to lose there fifty thousand men, it would
be very silly to estimate their means of aggression
or defence in a general war by the siege of that
fortress ; for if Prussia, Russia, and Austria were
to declare war against France, it would not be
France alone with which they would have to con-
tend, but with Poland, Hungary, Italy, the
Provinces of the Rhine, in short, with all that
part of enslaved Europe to which such a war
would open the way to freedom. It remains,
however, to be seen, whether the Powers of the
Holy Alliance will continue in the wise and pru-
dent course for their own safety, which they have
hitherto held, or rush into a war, the chances of
which must be, in all eyes but their own, so de-
cidedly against them.

A Morning Contemporary states that the
British Cabinet has resolved to recognise the
Regency of Portugal, and has sent a messenger
to Lisbon with instructions to our Resident there
to insist upon the immediate suspension of hos-
tilities between the Usurper and Don PEDRO.
The cause, in the person of the young QUEEN,
has hitherto been treated with most mortifying in-
difference by the English Government, in con-
sequence of which Portugal, in a commercial
sense, has been almost wholly lost to us.
In refraining from marking our abhorrence
of the system and conduct of Don MIGUEL,
we have been merely truckling to the Holy
Alliance, whose demands usually rise in propor-
tion to the concessions made them. It is high
time that we should act according to our own
conviction of what is just and proper, without
pausing to consider what Russia, Prussia, or
Austria may think of the matter. By recog-
nising, and by persuading Spain to recognise,
Donna MARIA, we secure for ourselves great
commercial advantages in Portugal, which in its
present distracted condition cannot be turned to
the slightest account.

Since we wrote the above remarks we
are sorry to say that there does not appear
to be the slightest foundation for this statement.
Lord PALMERSTON has not yet signified any
intention of adopting a course prescribed alike by
a regard for the honour and interest of this
country, and for the cause of humanity. No-
thing would have given us greater pleasure than
to have been able to confirm the statement of our
Contemporary—but the first duty is the promul-
gation of truth.

'We have received some French Papers of
Sunday, and others dated yesterday, but the
only matters of the slightest interest which they
contain have been anticipated by the activity of
the Correpondents of the English Papers in
Belgium. Addresses of congratulation to the
KING still continue to be sent up in large
numbers from the provinces. A rumour of the
death of CHARLES X. was circulated in Paris,
on Saturday evening, but it wants confirmation

German Papers state that the Egyptian army,
after nearly two months repose, has resumed
offensive operations against the Porte. The
same authorities mention, under the head of a

letter from Berlin, that the question of peace or
war rests solely with Prussia, and that Austria
and Russia are ready to adopt whatever decision
her Cabinet may come to. This decision has
already been all but given in favour of peace,
which, we have no doubt, will be preserved, un-
less (an event very unlikely to happen) CHASSE
should be able to hold out for a month or six
weeks longer.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 10.—The Egyptian army,
under Ibrahim Pacha, after near two months' repose, has
resumed offensive operations, taken possession of the de-
filed Cilicia, and, after dispersing a corps of troops assem-
bled at Ereckli, entered Koniah on Nov. 1. (This place
is about half-way between the frontiers of Syria and Con-
stantinople.) This news seems to have hastened the
departure of the Grand Vizier for the army. He set out
the day before yesterday from Scutari to Kiutakia, which
is appointed for the rendezvous of the troops. The Sultan
and all his Ministers were present at the farewell dinner
which was given to the Grand Vizier, at Scutari, prior to
his departure, and Feuzi Ahmed Paella, Alinister of the
Seraglio, accompanied him one day's journey.
Redschid Pacha is appointed by the Sultan to be Vice-
roy of Egypt, Djeddo, and Candia, which governments,
after the anathema issued against Mehemed Ali and his
son, were given to Hussein Pacha.

The Turkish fleet .entered the Hellespont on the sth
instant, and each anchor off the Castles of the Dardanelles;
the Egyptian fleet returned on Oct. 25th to the harbour
of Scada.

Ou the 7th inst. an English ship of war (a schooner)
arrived here. It had on board part of the treasures of
Hussein Paella, taken from Tarsus by the Captain of a
Greek ship; in the recovery of which the English resi-
dent at Napoli, and the Greek Secretary of State,
Trikupis, had greatly exerted themselves. The value of
the property, among which there is a portrait of the
Sultan, richly set in diamonds, is said to be a million of
piastres.

from his post on account of ill health, died on the 3d inst.

(FROM A LETTER.)
BERLIN, DEC. 3.---In case, as is here pretty generally
affirmed, a large army of the troops of the Confederation
should be assembled, for which the contingents are said to
be already preparing, General Grolmann (who is not to he
Minister of War) is expected to have the command-in-
chief. Our own armaments are likewise very extensive on
the Rhine; we have 200 pieces of cannon, with the requi-
site horses, and 100 in Saxony. This immense mass of
artillery can be immediately assembled on the frontiers.
The French are not able to oppose so great a force to it.
Anattia and Russia are entirely agreed with Prussia, and
the question of peace or war, it is affirmed, depends on our
Cabinet ; so that if it should so decide, 150,000 Austrians
now in Bohemia and Moravia, and as many Russians can-
toned in Poland, will be at its disposal without any farther
application, and may march immediately at the desire of
Prussia. Though circumstances have caused the intention of
appointing General Grolmann to the war department to be
given up for the present, it is .uppnsed that there will be a
change both in that department and in the Ministry of the
Interior, as General Hake, the Minister of War, has been in
bad health for many years, and M. V. Sherckmann, Mi-
nister of the Interior, is above 70 years of age. The latter
has had for some years an able coadjutor in Baron Von
Breen, who will doubtless prove a worthy successor to
Baron Shercktnann, when he retires.

From the last report of the Commissioners for paying
the public debt, it appears that 42,000,000 have been paid
off since 1829, so that the interest with which the state is
burdened is reduced by a million and a half.—. Hamburg
