STILL LATER ARRIVALS FROM EU-
ROPE.

kOfEn
The packet ship Erie, Capt Funek, arrived at
New-York on Wednesday evening from Hayre,
in the remarkable short passage of twenty -four
DAYS. By this arrival the Editors of the Com
mercial Advertiser have received files of Paris
papers to the 9th of October inclusive.
The Boston papers contain London dates OF
the Sth of October, and Liverpool of the 9th,
brought to that port by the ship Perfect, which
sailed on the 10th.
The general complexion of affairs in France
was becoming more favorable. The Pope had ac-
knowledged the new government, and it was conf
IDENTITY believed that in a very short time every
government in Europe would have ministers &C
credited to the court of Louis Philippe. Indeed
the French revolution seems to be universally &C
coded to-a consequence, probably, of certain
indications among their own respective people,
that it would be unsafe to do otherwise. Prussia
i, represented to have gone further than a mere
acknowledgment, and to have approved Of the
principle Of non Intervention in the affairs Of other
nations, STIMULATING, at he same time not to in
terfere herself in the affairs of The Netherlands.
II this be true, it accounts at once for another part
of the news by this arrival, viZ-1haf the King
of The Netherlands has appointed a commission
10 prepare the project Of a lac for the separation
of The fco Kingdoms upon terms Of amicabie &c
com,modaiiOn.
This parts officially announced from the Hague
under date of October Cd. The communication
was first made TO a meeting of the members of the
States General from Belgium only, who were
convened by special invitation for the purpose Of
hearing the proposition. Tn proposition at first
submitted, was to appoint the commission under
the Prince of Orange. The two Bhambers were
united at IL O'Clock on the day above mentioned
when the proposal was discussed and rejected, by
a vote of a. to l0-the Dutch members undOubt-
ediy voting against it. The session was thereup-
on closed By the minister Of the interior, who
formally announced that a commission had been
appoiRted. The next question that arises, is
whether the Belgians will submit to these propo-
sails. 1t will be seen by the details given below
that the insurgents have become so formidable as
TO declare themselves independent, iii is there
fuuc quite probable they will not NO" listen oany
terms but Ut on absolute recognition OF their In
dependence, without acknowledging a mere nom
anal fealty to the King.
The Courier Francais cOntradicts on the author
ity, as it declares, of persons best acquainted
with the intentions of the Cabinets of the Euro
pean powers, the assertion that a general war In
Europe is likely in any event to follow from the
late revolt in Belgium. The hostile dispositions
of Prussia are denied, and the mission of NJ.

~tentions of that power. One of the French iourn-
ais afirms that Prussia..has recognised in the most
frank manner the existing French government,
and has declared her intention to interfere Meth
er in the internal affairs of France nor those ofthe
Netherland.s" Ministers from Prussia. Bavaria,
and Sake Weimer. were presented to the French
king on the 9th of October. On the same day the
French minister of foreign affairs stated iii the
Chamber of Deputies, that Louis Philippe had
been cheerfully recognised by Europe, that the
different cabinets are preserving peace, and that
Notwithstanding the disturbances in Belgium, the
peace of the continent might be maintained by
the principle of non interference. The Terceira
Regency has acknowledged the French king
The French journals seem to be confident that no
interference will take place in any event. ''Eight
DAYS hence,'' says the Journal des De6ats Of Oc-
tober 4th, .severy crowned head will have an
ambassador at the Court Of the Prince who has
saved the ROYALTY of France from utter destrIc-
tion.'' As to the course of Russia, the following
article appears in the Augsburg Gazette, dated
Warsaw, Sept. 90. 1.-The recognition of King
Louis-Philip on the part of Russia has now taken
place. The regulations lately issued with regard
to French travellres in Poland s. Russia have been
recalled. and all Frenchmen. may now pass the

The most frightful accounts of the excuses
committed by the Dutch soldiery in the late COM
bat at Brussels, have been received bothin Paris s.
London. Letters published in the London Morn
ing Chronicle, from a Clergyman of the Church
of England, detail a series of horrible barbarities.
According to his account, several young ladies
were violated. and then IN a kind Of savage mer-
cy, butchered before their parents eyes. A pri-
vate letter received in Paris says-s'rhe Dutch
villains In the late contest behaved with the ut
most barbarity & committed every kind of crime.
Citizens without arms, found by them in their
houses, were cruciied, burnt, had their hands.
ears and noses cut of, and their tongues torn out;
the young ladies of a school were violated by
these monsters, and afterwards massacred ;n short
the diaboiical deeds committed by these wretches
are such that it is impossible to describe them. and
/ should nat believe them if they were not confirm
ed by those who witnessed them"
