dicial effect on the attendance, which was much less nume -

tary posts within the Belgian territory l The principal
points at which this army of oecupa,ion is to be stationed
are Namur, Enghien, Brain. le Co:nte, and the banks of the
Sambre. The withdrawal of the 20,000 thus incomes a
mere delusion. Several French Generals are about to be ap-
pointed to command in the Belgic- army.
