Scheldt, which the Dutch refuse to grant—the
navigation of the waters of Holland, on
payment of a toll of one florin per ton ;
whereas the Dutch, we believe, demand three,
and a direct communication with Germany, by
which the trade from England would pass
through Belgium. This also the Dutch refuse
to concede. It is evident, therefore, that the
surrender of the citadel of Antwerp will not of
itself materially advance the Belgian Question,
unless the British and French Cabinets, satisfied
with this show of power should treacherously
abandon the Belgians on the main points of a
treaty which they have pledged themselves to en-
force.

German Papers of the 3d inst. inform us that
he Hungarian Diet is to be opened on the 16th
of December by the EMPEROR in person, when
his MAJESTY will no doubt learn from that
patriotic Assembly how much they sympathise
in the wrongs of hapless but heroic Poland.
Much anxiety prevailed at 'Vienna respecting
the uncertain state of political affairs in Holland
and Belgium :
IrrENNA, OCT. 27.—Onthe 24th inst. his Imperial Ma-
jesty issued the Royal Letters Parent, convoking a Diet of
the kingdom of Hungary, and the countries connected with
it, to meet at Presburg on l)ec•ember 16 this year. His Ma-
jesty the Emperor and King will open the Diet in person,
which would have met last year but for the cholera, which
desolated the kingdom. The Emperor is still at Schou-
hrunn, where his Royal Highness Prince William of
Brunswick dined yesterday, and the Duke of Anhalt
Coethen to-day. It is said the Imperial Court will leave
Schonbrunn on the 6th of next month, and come to the
palace in Vienna.

There is considerable agitation on 'Change. The spe-
culators for a fall, take advantage of the opening speech
of the King of Holland to the States-General, but with
little success, as the 5 per Cents. have remained for some
months at above 87, with fluctuations of 3-16 to 5.16.
However, the great shareholders are now afraid, and re-
fiain from further purchases, in apprehension of war, of
which it must be owned there are some indications. We
may, however, still depend on the prudent policy of the
Great Powers, which are more anxious than ever to pre-
serve Europe from great calamities. Yet trifling events,
occurring contrary to all calculation, sometimes defeat the
best intentions. We expect with some anxiety the next
accounts from Berlin, as they may be decisive. M. Von
\Vernier, who was at Toplit!, while the King of Prussia
was at that place, has returned, but nothing has transpired
respecting the object or the result of his mission. The
sailing of the English and French fleet is not likely to
produce any great change in the state of political affairs ;
fur the Cabinet of the Hague has taken such measures for
the defence of the Dutch coasts, that little can he appre-
hended from a blockade, which, in the winter season
can neither he general nor complete. On the ether
hand, the trade of England may suffer severely. It is,
therefore, generally thought here that when, after the
lapse of some time, the Cabinets shall be sensible of the
fruitles,ness of their enterprise, they will again have re-
course to negotiations, unless they purposely drive matters
to extremity, which is not probable.
