SATURDAY, JANUARY 1.

NSW Irwes DATHOLIDAT AT TIE BAN

••• Custom demands from thii—Proprietors of the &ran, at this
season, an expression of their deepest gratitude to their very old Mends
for a long continuance of their partiality ; and to their many new
Mends, to whose taste they endeavour to accommodate themselves, by
every attention to the genius of the rising age.
The STAR has always endeavoured to be active without empiricism,
honest in bad times, and decided In the Mlle of Truth, without violat-
ing the good taste of its Readers. To be considered one of the

MOST ILSPECTABLE Of the London Papers, has always been its sole

ambition.
On. these rounds, and on the presumed merits of some new and
interesting ibstures, the Conductors flatter themselves that the general
preference which they have enjoyed for forty-three years, will be at once

continued end deserved.
Among ether improvements, the Conductors Invite the attention of
their intsillgent Raiders, to the contents and arrangement of their Leer
PAGE. the whole is a feature peculiar to the Stan, and one which
must render it the Universal Baum of the British People, by Its
identity with their love of knowledge, and with all their social affections.
When the STAR firm appeared in 1788, it was the Original Evening
Paper, but its claims were soon invaded by itnitatem—so in this fea..
lure the STAR may also be imitated ; but as it shall never be excelled,
the Conductors refer it to the candid diKrhuination of the Public, to
prefer in this ease, as in all others, an original to a copy.

Our private correspondent at Dover, in his letter of last
night, informs us of the arrival of the Salamander Poet
Office Packet, Captain Lyne, from Calais ; having on board,
M. SYLOAN VAN DE WEYER, member of the Provisional
Government of Belgium, and President of the Diplomatic
Committee; accompanied by M. CHARLES HYPOLITI
VILAINE DE WATTEEEN, member of the National Con-
gress, with their Secretaries, and suite. After partaking of
refreshments at the York Hotel, these distinguished per-
sonages immediately proceeded to town, on a special mission,
regarding the affairs of Belgium.

The year which has just terminated, we have seen de-
signated the most eventful of the last thirty. Perhaps the
expression may include too much; and it may be attributed
a little to the fact, that the events which occupy present at-
tention, always assume a larger space in the mind's eye,
than those which have passed a little farther down the stream
of time. It must, however, be allowed, that the political
events of the year 1830, are of peculiar magnitude ; and, as
far as human conjecture can extend, promise to generate
other events in 1831, still more influential on the state of so-

ciety in Europe, and still more
dulge in the prospective of imagination.
In attempting to read the future destinies of Europe, die
politician first turns his attention to France, and be Lein
himself—have the institutions of the impatiently enterprising
people of that country, arrived at the point of rest ? Will ail
people, elated by their successful overthrow of one Govern-
meat—every one of whom has a characteristic tendency to
feel himself gigantically powerful in his own imagination,l
and every one of whom has assumed the congenial
profegion of arms—will such a nation not kill be impatient,
under that restraint to its enterprise, "bleb the tranquil-
lity of Europe would render desirable ? The moat ruling

to those who in-
