Since writing the above, we have learnt, that Pers.
toe, the nun whose name was hated to the infAnsons
hand-bills which have been in such general circula-
tion as Secretary, was apprehended this morning at his
lodgings in Greystoke Place, Fetteraaaerby Decade
the Marshal's man. He admits his intimacy with
the two Maar" itc. but denied soy participation
in the outrages committed by the insurgents. 'He
holds a very high tone, and speaks with great cool
dente of the support which his party were likely to
receive, from every, even the meet emote, town and
village in the kingdom.

Watson has been examined had eight at dwt 01Ice

than a preliminary examination, aid lasted a wry

Belgian territory. We fear the spirit of the inhabitants
of Belgium is not good : they have not yet been
purged from the taint of disaffection to all regular

Governments, which their French neighbours have
given them ; but as to a Revolution, we apprehend
they are not so mad as to attempt it in the face of so
many armed nations.

Cruizers, or rather pirates, with the Morocco Bag,
have captured some Dutch vessels in the Mediterra-
nean. Is this to be endured ?—ls it to be endured,
that, in the present exhausted state of the finances of
civilized Europe, the Dutch and the British nations
are to be at the enormous expense of keeping up a
naval armament in the Mediterranean to repress the
piracies of these African freebooters ? The Deys of
Algiers, Tunis, and the Blackamoor who calls him.
self Emperor of Morocco, seem positively determined
to play the old roguish game of fast, and loose"
with the States of Europe. No sooner has the Dey
of Atoms blubbered out his affected sorrow for the
past, and renounced his cards, than his tawny brethren'
take them up, and pisy them for him. We observe,
the Dutch Admiral, who seconded Lord EXIIfOUTH
se nobly, is gone after this Bashaw sf Three Tails.:
He cannot be is better hands, and we hire he will

M USSELS, 'NOVEMBER SS.
The nunsbeit of persons now employed on the for-
tifications of Namur, Charleroi, Mons, and Toils-
nay, is from sisteen to eighteen thousand men. In
the cities, all persons out of their work are employed
on works of public utility. By this wise and humane
measure, it is hoped to check, as far as possible,. the
increase of poverty and distress. .
The Duke of Wellington has been prevented, by
the receipt of various dispatches, frons leaving Cam-
'bray. His Lordship continues to take measures for
supplying, his troops with provisions. The grand
bead-quarters have been very much• visited within,
some days, by strangers of distinction. The.rigorous
punishment of some soldiers who had committed
extras% agein►t the inheltitaots of the seiatry, by
had a verx good effect.

Yesterday we briefly noticed the arrival of French
Papers and the partial triumph of the Opposition oti
ultra Royalist party against the Mipisten s that
triumph was indeed but partial, for although the
latter were compelled to produce certain papers called
for, the Chamber passed to the Order of the Day on
the main question, namely, that of granting some
relief from the grievous load of oppression which the
blitiister of Police had thrown on the unfortunate
family of ROBERT. The father and son therefore re-
main in the prison of La Force for an indefinite pe-
riod, without any chance of being brought to trial,
subject to all the horrors of secret detention, which
Englishmen, who have been so unfortunate as to in.
cur the displeasure of the French Police, have some-
times suffered, and have pathetically described. We
fear that the unction given by the new Chamber of
Deputies to this arbitrary act, will not obtain them
the reputation of being schooled in the principles of
civil. liberty. It is no answer to this violation of
the principles of reason and justice to say, that
the law by which the ROBBRTS are punished,
was made by their own party, when in power.-.
This merely proves, what we always knew, that
the Ultra Royalists were its and blockheads; but
this conduct of the new Chamber stews, that when
airy call themselves Cautitiaiewatists and Chartists,
they are giving themselves a nickname. The lan.
guage of the French Charter, on the subject of per.
sonal liberty, is as plain and intelligible as that of
our far.famed Magna aarta and Bill of Rights; and
we do not wonder now that the Kiwo, whose sagacity
and foresight were never doubted, dismissed that
Chamber, whose exaggerated ideas were leading them•
to demol;sh the barriers of liberty, one by one : of
this spirit, the law which persecutes their favourite
Journalist 'is a melancholy proof. The best thing
the French. Ministers can now do is to give the Ro.
nears a trial. The loss which he has sustained by
the stoppage' of his Journal and the seizure of his
. .

---
printing materials ought to be made good to him,
whether he is innocent or guilty. There can be no
civil liberty if there be no liberty of the Press.
The Private Letters from Paris state that mobs
are frequent in the Provinces from the scarcity of
provisions.

His Royal Highness the Plume ltroari• has issued
his commands, that during his stay at Brighton not
an article of any sort of provisions in his establish.
meat should be wasted, but that the cold meat,
soups, load, &c. not required for the Palace con-
sumption, should carefully be preserved, and thrice a
week,. at least, distributed to the poor. To render
this noble instance of charitable beneficence.the mone•
effective, the largest families in the place, and those
existing on Ole slenderest MIMS, have. been searched
fir and ascertained, end to the mother; and principal;
salmons of these, tickets have been given to justify-
the applications mad meet certain orlief on the etenil
days. This plan was commenced on Tuesday, and
numerous were the mothers and widows- with large
families who retired from the Royal residence with
their aprons and baskets and pitchers filled.
The LOUD MAYOR and Court of Aldernsim have,
with great propriety, published two Resolutions; the
sue giiing thanks to the inhabitants who se readily
came forward to put down, the horrid and alarming'
riots of Monday ;
_and the• other offering rewards for
the apprehension of the assassin who shot Mr. PLATT,
