(RECEIVED 'fins DAY.)
BRUSSELS, JAN. 23.—The Chamber of Representa-
tives continued yesterday the general discussion of the
budget of the department of the Interior. The Minister
of J ustice spoke in defence of the policy of the Ministry.
fle (ndeavoured to prove that it had remained faithful
to the ideas ;-;f moderation and conciliation which it had
taken for its motto. M. De'fosse, who spoke after M.
Anethan, maintained, on the contrary, that the Ministry
had not kept any of the promises which it made on taking
office. The Deputy for Liege especially insisted that
the Ministry in its very essence—that is, the
members who compose it—cannot inspire the
country with any confidence. This assertion was
combated by the Ministers of Finance and the Interior.
The general discussion was interrupted by an amen-
dental question.
M. Dumortier observed, that if the vote were delayed
till after the examination of the several chapters it would
net be given for a fortnight, and he asked if it would not
be possible to follow a more rational course.
M. Osy, taking advantage of this idea, made a formal
motion in the following terms:— "Has the Chamber
confi2ence in the Ministry ? "
'I he Minister of the Interior combated this new mode of
expressing the blame of the Chambers, and desired time
till to-morrow to reflect on the new form proposed by
the Deputy fur Antwerp.
linussEns, JAN. 24.—At the commencement of the
sitting of the Chamber to-day the Minister of the Inte-
rior spoke first on the motion of M. Osy. Ile took a
rapid 'dew of the preceding Acts of the Chamber, to
prove that the Chamber has in its power all sufficient
means to express its opinion on the Cabinet, without
having recourse to any new method. In consequence
the Member moved the order of the day on the proposal
of M. Osy, and declared that the Cabinet considered this
order of the day as a question of its existence, and that
it would retire immediately if the order of the day were
nut adopted. M. Devaux followed the Minister of the
Interior. He endeavoured to prove that the method pro-
posed by M. Osy, to have the opinion of the Chamber,
was better than the precedents quoted by M. Northomb,
because it gave more latitude to opinion.
M. Osy, notwithstanding the support he had received
from M. Devaux, declared that he withdrew his original
motion, and would substitute fur it a motion fur an ad-
dress to the King, in which the Chamber should declare
that it had no longer any confidence in the Ministry.
It was decided that the vote on this motion should
take place immediately after the general debate on the
budget.
Several other members spoke, but the attention of the
Chamber was chiefly attracted by a speech of M. Libeau
against the Cabinet, and by a reply of the Minister of the
Interior, which was applauded by the assembly.
A letter from Antwerp of the 24th, says :—" Our
quays in the basin next the railway are so crowded with
goods intended for Germany (the forwarding of which
is delayed by the breach in the tunnel, near Cremptich)
that it will soon be impossible to find room for the least
thing. It is to be hoped that this inconvenience will be
remedied as soon as possible."
The director of the railways and several engineers
went yesterday to - inspect the tunnel, and see what
damage had been done. They will meet to-day to con-
sider how to prevent any further falling in of the earth,
and adopt means to re-open the communication as soon
as possible. We are harpy to say that none of the work,
men lost their lives.
