PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 28.

(From the Hampshire Telejraph)
His Majesty's steam-vessel, Hermes, Lieutenant Kennedy, arrived
on Monday at Plymouth front Falmouth, where she landed the Nledi-
terranean and East India mails. She sailed from Falmouth on her
voyage out on July 9th, and arrived at Gibraltar the 15th, where she
communicated the intelligence of the accession of his present Majesty,
which was celebrated with marked demonstraticisacif loyalty. His Ma-
jesty's sloop Ferret was there in quarantine, having just arrived from
Algiers. Left Gibraltar foliklalta ; passed close to Algiers on the
21st at sunset; the waitc ilag-ifas flying on the forts. Saw six line.of.
battle ships, sixteen frigates, and half a dozen gypiettos;'llff tillll on.
Spoke the Alligator, twenty miles west -of Algiers. Arrived at Malta
on the 25th, his Majesty's ships Britannia, Melville, Wellesley,
Gloucester, Madagascar, Scylla, Rapid, hlusquita, Weazlc, and
Wasp, were there. There were also there a Russian seventy.four,
with Count Heyden's flag, and a corvette commanded by his son, with
a Dutch frigate and two brigs. On communicating his Majesty's ac-
cession, the Admiral, fleet, and fortresses, fired salutes. The ian
Admiral left in a few days for Russia. The Hermes sailed on the
26th, and arrived at Corfu on the 28th. On her passage, she a ape-
rienced a dreadful storm of thunder, lightning, and rain, but fortu-
nately escaped injury. She met at Corfu the Revenge, itattlesnake,
and Procris, and took on board the East Indian mails. Similar
demonstrations on his Majesty's accession were observed here. Left
on the 30th. Saw none of the French fleet off Algiers. Arrived
again at Malta on the Ist of August. The Gloucester, Melville, Ma-
dagascar, Musquito, and Philomel, were there, together with the Conn-
tess of Harcourt transport, and a Dutch frigate and a brig. During
the Hermes's stay at Malta, very tempestuous weather prevailed ; A
storm of thunder and lightning, with heavy rain, lasted for a day and a
half. The Gloucester and Melville both haetheir main and ruiren-
masts struck by lightning, and shivered to pieces, so as to require
being replaced by others, but providentially no lives were lost. Vice-
Admiral Sir P. Malcolm, in the Britannia, with the Scylla and
had been cruising off Malta. On the 3d inst. he left (with the Rapid)
for Corfu and Napoli di Romania. The Hermes left Malta on the same
day, and arrived at Gibraltar on the 11th, where site found his 3laj s:y's
brig Weasle, for England. Left Gibraltar on the 13th, and spoke off
Tariffs, his Majesty's steamer, Colombia, Lieutenant Ede, with ate
Mediterranean mail.—Arrived at Cadiz on the 14th ; sailed next 4!..y,
and arrived at Falmouth on the night of the 22d; drokiped mails, and
came into Hamoaze on the evening of the 23d. 'I he Hermes has
performed her ,passage in a shorter time than either of the tie ni.:r
steam-packets, having been only forty-four days out and home, e..n-
sequently she arrived six days before her mail was due. Nearly
thirty passengers cattle in her, amongst them were the (Mms,
Sanevitze ; the American Consul, from Gibraltar ; Capteins
Falconer, Brown, and Seymour; Lieutenants De Plat and Er.
ton. The Wellesley left Malta on the 29-11 of July, for
Portsmouth.—Colonel litzclarence, Lord Osborne, and other pev•ins
are coming in her. The Revenge was to leave Corfu in a few days
after the Hermes started from Malta and England. The Musquito
sailed from Malta on the 4th of August, and had to call at dill; rent
Barbary ports on her way to England. The IVearle left Gibraltar
for England on the 12th inst. The Alligator reached Malta the of
August, from Plymouth ; it was said that she was to relieve the
Samarang, some con:plaints having been sent home about that ship.
the Rifleman and Philomel had arrived at Malta from the Atchi-
pelago ; the forteer ship had not been relieved on the station, and
would shortly sail to join the Admiral. The favourite, .seylla and
Rapid, were found to sail exceedingly well. The squadron was (pike
healthy.
11-earle, 10, Commander Damien, arrived to-day front Malta
from which site sailed the 15th July, nineteen days prier to the Hermes.
She touched at Gibraltar on the 12th inst. The garrison was quite
healthy.
The Lord IV 'Mani Bcntinck transport arrived to-day Prow the
Island of Ascension. She left that place on the 18th of July, easel
brings home some moorings and other stores. On the 13th of July.
the Ariadne frigate passed the Island fur nngland, having under her
charge even India ships, the crews of which had evinced such mu-
tinous and disorderly conduct, that the Governor of St. Helena had
deemed it prudent to put a military guard on board some of them,
and had been oblif eel to request Captain Rennie to take charge or
the whole to England. The names of the Indiamen alluded to are,
the Windsor, Waterloo, General Kyd, Inglis, Lowther Castle, &Atli),
Castle, and Farquhar:ma.
The Britotnart transport, Lieutenant Woodman, Agent, arrived this
morning, from Quebec, which place she left the azit instant. She I.raigs
returned stores and invalids, and limited service men from the lath,
24th, 68th, 61;th, 70th, 71st, 79th, and 84th Regiments. The Branches,
Morrison, Master, with troops from England, had arrived at Qin hie,
previous to the departure of the liritomart.
The Falcon, 19 guns, is removed t'rom the Cape of Good Hop:: !as-
don to the %Vest Indies; and Favourite, 18 guns, is removed fr. ta the

LONDON.

;MONDAY, AUGUST 30.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.
The numerous communications we have before us, with respect to the
appointment of a Coroner for Middlesex, shall receive early notice.

Yesterday morning, about two o'clock, despatches were
received by the EA LOF ARERDEF:N, from Sir CHARLES

BritloT, our Ambass=ador at the Hague, communicating the
news of the insurrection at Brussels; in consequence of

which, Mr. FALC6 had an interview of three hours at the
Foreign Office, with the Noble FA ILL. The particulars
of the news received will be found in our subseqnent co-

luau's ; and w•e are enabled to state, that the purport of

the intelligence received was. that the town was in possession

of the National Guards, after three thousand men had
been killed and wounded, in the streets. The PRINCE

had gone to Antwerp ; the KIN 0 was at the Hague.

The people had sent u deputation to the KING, requiring
him to dismiss his Ministers ; bring the►u to justice ; and
to banish POTTIER, the ohnoxions Editor.

In the inewitime, the KING has applied to him MAJESTY
of Prussia, for military aid, in his distressing dilemma.

The intelligence from Brussels, contained in our paper
of this day, is of a nature not su much to surprise poli-
ticiang, as to confirm the apptehensions which the events
in nance Lad generally originatcd. As far as can be
judged from the rews, as it has yet mat bed us, the up-
rising—. as it tniiy be called—of the population, is without
my specific dilectien ; and has taken place without hav-
ing lain in collbfAp'llCP of any previously concerted plan.
do lea' +•r is it mentioned ; but, if true, that the mili-
tary suet:m.llA w immediately to a city mob, it shows
a most peci,liar ripeness ft,r ; and, under such favourable
vircemstatices. h leader not, we should think, be long
wanting. .fudging flout appearances, however, if the Dutch
tilovernmetit Mt not peculiarly deficient in military force,
and !then is( in vigeur and judgment, we should imagine
that the riaisent - as it is said to be—unarranged tumul-
tuai-y piiirtment, would afford a most favourable oppor-
tunity to cheek the pa:gess of a spirit that certainly
must preclotaitian, in the minds of the people in Belgium ;
and a Ifich, well-directed. will inevitably make a separation
between the •‘ clay and brass '' of which the arrangements
of the Holy Alliance had accomplished a temporary union
It is not smi;cient t. argue against the probability of such
a separation, -that the KING of the Netherlands is a
prudent and v:ell-disposed
_Prince ; or that there is no
real canse for • dislike between one portion of his • sub-
j,Tts andarnither. It is quite sufficient to know that an
old antipatlty, or adverse prejudice, exists; and that a'
(Mid Love appears disincumbered of former ties, and may
be supposed ready to embrace the fair deserter. It does
not surprise us, therefore, that an attempt is made; but we
think it is made under circumstances, if all the details have
accurately reached us, not to be successful, unless there be

ead want of power and want of energy in the Dutch Go-
vernment.

Another contingency mentioned as probable, is the in-
gress of an auxiliary Prussian force, which might occa-
sion, it is conjectured, an ingress of French troops
on the opposite side. Time can alone develope ;
but this wa may see, that if the present popular
rising be so entirely without method, or aim, as it ap-
pears to be ; and if, as it likewise appears to be, it be so
prematurely made, as not to occasion any encourage-
ment front France—then the probabilities are, that it will be
readily suppressed. It will then be considered ono of those
unfortunate popular failures, which invariably strengthen
the existing Government, and prevent any future proximate
disaster. We cannot think that Xing Louis PHILLIP
will incline to disturb the peace of Europe, by affording aid,
or secret encouragement, to the disaffected in Brussels.

Such are the remarks that are suggested by the
intelli-
gence at present before us ; but we are stilt in expectation of
private letters, which may afford u•s a more perfect means of
appreciating the importance of the Brussels insurrection,
and which we shall not lose a moment in communicating to
our readers in a Sct ond Edition, should they not arrive in
time for our present impression. In circles both poli-
tical and commercial, the movement at Brussels is occa-
sioning great sensation ; and with reason ; for, it' of a nature
to be successful, its results will prove more immediately im-
portant to the peace and prosperity of Europe, than even the
revolution in Paris.

We have the New Orleans Bee, of the 10th August,
which states from Mexico, that the party of Gut:Rio:no is
daily increasing. General BRAVO has called on the Prosi-
sident of NlExlco for a reinforcement of 2,000 men, to
destroy the faction ; and in his official despatch to the
Government, he states that the towns are depopulated.

Quebec papers to the Ist. August, and Nlontfeal to the
3rd august, have been received at the North and South
American Coffee House. From Quebec we learn that the
crops look remarkably well, and will be the greatest ever
raised in the Province.

Tile Augusta Patriot says—" General WEIIIILR, who
was appointed by the Marshal of the State, to assist in
taking the census, has been driven back, and compelled to
desist in the performance of his duty in that portion of our
territory to which the British have set up their iniquitous
claim. The authorities of New Brunswick have extended
their jurisdiction over this territory ; and wo arc informed
that a proclamation was published, forbidding the inhabi-
tants to give in their census; and that General WEBBER
was threatened with arrest."

A fleet of China ships, under convoy of His Majesty's
ship Ariadne, has arrived off Portsmouth. It is reported by
some, that this vessel of war was to protect the Company's
ships from the squadron of Don M t oVEL; but by others,
it is asserted to be in consequence of a mutiny on board
three or four of the vessels. By this arrival, we have
Canton Registers of 30th March. The Hong merchants had
given formal notice to the old residents of the new regula-
tions re3pecting foreign trade.
These papers contain the following important com-
mercial intelligence :—The select coartiittee have sold their
Bombay Cotton, at 9 tads, 7 mace per If); which, with
a few private sales, has placed the stock of Cotten solely
in the hands of the Chinese. This now amounts to about
63,700 bales ; and much activity, we hear, exists among the
dealers. The Cotton yarn, in the late importations by the Com-
pany, was chiefly of the low number, 20—which has thrown too
large a quantity of that quality upon the market ; and the
descriptions now recommended nre numbers 30 and 60. A
slight demand has prevailed for Malwa Opium, during the
last week; but has produced no alteration in the prices.—
New Patna is at 800 to 810, with little demand; and no
sales have yet been made of the New Beracs. In last sales
of Turkey Opium have been effected at 755 dollars pLr
parcel. The late holders of Betel Nut, and pepper.
have disposed of their investments at 6 and 7 dollars per
parcel. From the want of purchasers in the Foreign
Market, Nankeen Raw Silk has fallen in price, particularly
Taysam. With the exception of Twankny, and limn
skins, very little Green Tess remain in the market; and the
prices of the prices of the other sorts are daily declining.

CITY. TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The revolution which has taken place at Brussels, is
the gene►al topic of conversation this morning in the City.
The following two !eters on the subject have been re-
ceived by two of the first commercial houses in the city.
" ANTWERP, AVG. 27.—0 n the evening of tho day
before yesterday, an insurrection occurred at Brussels, but
seems to have been appeased. This event h►ts, however,
made the situation of our stock market still worse. Only
some Neapolitan Falconnets were done at 68k, and there
remained sellers at this rate. Spanish rents dull, at 481 ;
lots de Poligne 101 paper : other stocks quite nominal :
Exchanges, also, were fiery flat ; and only bills on Paris met
with some demand.

" BRUSSELS, ALIO ['ST 27, Six o'Clock in the Evening.
—Tranquillity is restored hem ; I am well, and you have
nothing to fear on my account. I thought it most prudent
to drop you a line per post, as no doubt you will receive very
exaggerated accounts of the bu6iness in England."
By the above letters it appears that tranquillity was again
restored in Brussels; but we are not as yet informed if any
of the great manufacturing towns have taken a part in the
above affair. The well informed think, that if the revolu-
tion extends, Prussia will march in troops to put it down.

Our Consol market has been materially affected this morn-
ing by the above event, and Consols, which left off on Sa-
turday at 91i A for the account, have receded to 901
which is more than one per cent. fall. In the Foreign
Market all stocks are much lower.
POSTED AT THE NORTH AAA SOUTH AMERICAN COT-
FEE-HOUSE.—SAFE ARRIVAL 01 THE BRIDE/ F.WATER.—
Captain Adams, who has arrived off the Wight, reports
that the Bridgewater was dismantled early in March, and
bore up for ludia, reached Madras 11th April, and sailed for
Calcutta the 13th. All her officers and passengers were
well ; the latter remained at Madras. The whole of the
company's ships had arrived at St. Helena when the Kellie
Castle sailed.

LI V ER POOL, Auo. 27.11relrport of Cotton this week
is 20,538 bags, and the sales are 15,610 bags at last week's
prices. The sales of British Plantation Sugar this week
are 520 hhds. at steady prices, with 470 bags of East India,
at 606.6 d. and 1,430 bags of Mauritius, at 465. to 475. 6d.
.In Coffee, the transactions were 350 casks, at former rates.

CITY, HALF-PAST ONE.
According to all the private letters from Brussels, we
understand that order has been restored there; and that the
town was in possession of the National Guards, who do duty
with the troops of the line ; and we understand that the
higher class of the people are in favour of the Government.
Consols continue heavy at 901 1 for the account, and
little speculation is going forward, until we can get some
further information from Brussels.

There are also some reports in regard to Spain, of a re-
volution having commenced in that country.
All Foreign Securities are very heavy, and going down.
In Shares nothing doing. South Auto) ican Gam 21 pm.
