intelligence received by the telegraph is given

THE HAGUE, FRIDAY NIGHT, SEPT. 24.
An Aide-de-Camp of Prince Frederick left him last night at half-past
nine. He had not lbw entered Brussels, but was with his staff in a
house outside Porte de ficaerbeck. one of the gates of the city. A pro-
posal had been just then sent up to the Prince from the lower part of the
town (all the upper parts being in his possession), offering a surrender.
He had consented to cease firing, but no terms were known.
Generals Constant and kbuerman were wounded in the attack, the
former shot through the wrist, the latter severely in the thigh. A Co.
lend of artillery was killed. There were no further details. Not a
soldier had flinched during the attack. Between 2 and 3,000 French
were known to be in Brussels. Not a shadow of authority remained In
the town. All the self-ereaSed chiefs had disappeared. Count Vander.
meet, who is mentioned as having succeeded Major Vandersinissen, is a
man of ruined reputation. His father is a member of the first Chamber
of the State. General.

M. liscidaiix,l7lso tame out from Bmsaels before the attack, to
porky wi Priam Prelaid, made the following proposals to Prince'

Frederick's aide-de.camp (for he did no: see the Prince at Vilvorde :)-
Ist That the Koval army should retred: to Malines 2d. Tiut the
former garrison of Brussels only should be allowed to enter the
town ; 3d. Ti.:.t though the °fudge cockade should be mounted by the
citizens, they might wear also the Brabancon colours at their button-
holes and In watch.ribands ; 4th. That there should be a general
amnesty.
The aide decamp asked him if he had seen the Prince's proclams.
tion ? He replied that he had. He was then requested to write his pro-
posals and sign them. He did so (with his companion Evrard, I be-
' lieve.) He was then instantly arrested on a charge of high treason.
What his fate may I,e, I know not.
Nothing later than the Intelligence above-mentioned is known here.
The Princess of Orange and the ladies of the Hague have been busy all
day making lint for the wounded soldiers.
I sent a letter last night by an extra courier, who went by Calais,
with the address of the Chambers to the King, and the proclamation of
Prince Frederick. There was no sitting of the Chambers to-day.

SATURDAY MORT, SCUT. 25, SALF.PAIIIT
The Government here has been left in the moat extraordinary igno-
ranee of the Brussehaffuir. No official intelligence whateter has arrived
to-day from Prince Frederick, but a sort of news arrived about one
o'clock, that 496 prisoners reached Antwerp yesterday from Brussels,
and that another column was on the road. Beyond that every thing is
unknown. The impatience of the King, the Prince of , the Am-1
bassadors—every one, in short.—is extreme; but the mass of better or-
det show a phlegmatic calmness. that requires to be seen to be believed.
The destruction done by the cannon in Brussels was said to be immense.
Many of the finest houses in the Rue Royale are destroyed or greatly in-
jured, particularly those of M. Mean, the banker, Baron Heckeren, and
M. de Bousils, one of the members of the States-General. The defence
must have been desperate. This long lapse, without decisive intent.
gence of succe,s, bodes no good to the royal cause, and is altogether in-
conceivable, even if there was no positive news to communicate.
The States-General tin nothing. They were not assembled at all to-
day, nor do the members form an opinion as to the course things will
take. Every thing, in fact, is breathless suspense and uncertainty.
There is no news front the north that you will not have. Berlin,
Leipsic, and Dresden, are quirt. At least the Ministers have no news
to the contrary, up to to-day. You will bee that 100,000 Prussians are
on or near the Rhine.

• A Dutch Mail brought us last night Hamburgh Papers to the 21st
of September, the Prwasion State Gazette of the 20th, 21st, and 22d of
September, St. Peternburgh Journals of the Ilth of September. A
curious illustration of the apprehensiveness of Governments is given in
an article dated Berlin, describing the alarm into which Berlin was
thrown by a crowd gathered by the arrest of :Our tailors playing at a
game of chance. The garrison was under arms, the squares were occu.
pied by hon.:, foot, and artillery, the Princes rode through the streets.
It turned out that there was no cause for alarm, and the tailors were
wrongfully arrested, and in consequence, the Police officers who threw
the Prussian Government into such agitation:have been suspended. AU
this is very curious. The following are extracts
CHRISTIANIA, SEPT. 10.—. The Storthing has addressed to his
Majesty a very long and respectful petition, expressing the wish of the
Norwegian nation that the 17th May may be allowed to be celebrated,
in a becoming manner, as a festival dear to the nation, and solely as the
, anniversary of the happy epoch when Norway exchanged an unlimited
IMonarchical Government for a Constitutional form of Government.
BRUNSWICK, SEPT. IB.—The Address of the Magistrates
to the Duke, presented on the 31st ult. is now published. It
it well known that the Duke would not take any notice of it,
and this was the origin of the great dissatisfaction expressed by
the people. The Address represents that the prosperity of the
city has greatly declined, from various causes; and that the dis.
tress of a great portion of the inhabitants is such, that they look
forward with alarm at the approach of winter. Above 500 fatuities in
the city, that live by daily labour, formerly found employment In pub-
lic works, but this year none such have been carried on, and no indem-
nity has been attained by other means, as the distress of the times has
affected the wealthiest citizens. A great many rich families have left
the city ; hence the value of real property has declined to less than one
half of the price that was paid for it a few years ago, and the number of
tie poor is greatly increased, and the distress in the country acts again
on the capital. All these evils are Increased by a bad harvest, and con-
sequent rise in the price of corn ; and unless very vigorous measures are
adopted before winter, the discontent of the inhabitants must rise to the
greatest height, and famine and misery increase. In this state of things
they beg his Serene Highness to convoke the Assembly of the States, in
order to deliberate on the best means of remedying the general distress.
DRESDEN, SEPT. 16.—Various Proclamations have been published
here. One from Prince Frederick expresses his satisfaction at the
manner in which the citizens had, with great personal sacrifices and nee
Elect of their own affairs, put a speedy stop to the excesses of the
posed. He observes that as peace and order are now restored, it is
a duty to restore the peaceable citizen to his peaceable occupation, and
put aa end to a state of things injurious to business, and troublesome
and prejudicial to domestic arrangements. As it is no longer neces-
sary that so great a number of the citizens should be armed, he ex-
presses his confidence that they will conform to the measures announced
in a Proclamation, which declares that it is wished the citizens may con-
tinue their services; for a few days only, after which there will be a new
organization of the Burgher Guard.
BERLIN' SEPT. 18.—Four journeymen tailors, who were arrested
on the 16th In the evening, at a public-house, for playing at a game of
chance, gave rise to the assembling of a curious crowd, which soon dis.
peered. The Police, however, thought that in these times serious pre-
cautions might be needful, and therefore yesterday evening the garrison
were underarms, which caused again a great crowd to assemble from
mere curiosity. The Royal Palace, the arsenal, and the squares were
occupied by infantry, cavalry, and artillery, which caned some un-
easiness among the peaceable citizens. The 'Princes themselves rode
through the streets, some of which were barricaded to obviate the
pressure of the crowd. All is now quiet, and nobody has any idea
that such scenes could even assume here a political character. The
Prussian Stale Castile of the 19th gives an account of this affair
—it announces that any attempt to disturb the public peace will
be met with the most vigorous measures, and that the tailors having
been found innocent were retuned, and the Police Officers who ar-
rested them having exceeded their duty, had been suspended by his
Majesty's express order, and will be called to account.—Hainturgis
Papers, Sept. 21.
The Prussian Male Casette of the three following days (20, 21, 22)
makes no further mention of disturbances at Berlin.
ST. PETERIBUROH, SEPT. 11.—The number of vessels that have
entered the port of Cronstadt up to the 3d instant, was 1,071;
d, 943.

The Northern Bee gives a most distressing account of the ap-
pearance of the cholera morbus in some parts of southern Russia.
It seems to have come from Persia, where it raFes in several
places, among which is Tabreis ; at the end of July, it appeared in
Tiflis, where, in ten days, 579 persons were attacked, and 237 died.
The disorder was the most fatal in Astrachan, where, in the first two
days, near 200 persons died in twenty-four hours The disease, how.
ever, abated. Among the victims are the Civil Governor of Astrachan,
his son, and eight of the twelve Inspectors of Police.—Sl. PetcraLsirgh

the only buyers are the Bears, who are liquidating their accounts :
prices, in consequence, are on the decline. For distant tarns buyas are
not to be met with, without difficulty.
