least important intelligence which they
contain, is the dismissal of Van KePPall
from the post OF Minister Of State, and
the appointments Of Van Maanen in his
place. Van Maanen, it will be remeri-
bered, il the obnoxious Minister against
whom the popular indignation of Brussels
was directed. This looks like going the

- AsrwERr, Oct. A. The rapid shiftings
ofoar political drama have just made this
city the scene or immediate interest.-
Prince Frederick established his head
quarters here on Saturday, and we are
conseq q0ehtly at the centre Of the military
movements; on which the result Of events
more strictly political must, in great
measure, depend. You may rely on the
followinS statement: The forces Of Prince
Frederick, which now occupy this town
ind Malises, extending their advanced
positions to the village Of Efegham, and
Indirect Communication with the corps
d,armeesof Gen. Cort Heiliger, which
stretches by Canpenhout toward Lou
vain; and the entire amount of the two
branches ofthe army may be estimated at
20, 900 men, exclusive of garrisons.
The number of towns which have joined
the revolt, or fallen into the possession Of
the rebels, is as yet, by no means copsd-

and even 10 Ghent, the troops still retain
the citadel. Mons, Ath, Bruges and Os-
tend, are ip fact the only places which
have followed the example Of Brussels,

pie elsewhere. [Charleroy, Philippe,
