lDunu t luFoldD10 pO2lti''lt iiohi '" iif~ii he directed his artillery to the lower grounds of tine i'alk, where tilc Dutch had taken refuge.
 Uur sharp siiooieIss sriotc rcttSci siIia more numerous than the day before, se- condcd the artillery with the greatest success. The firing had never been more brisk than between Il and ; clock clock ii, the afternoon. l; vas VI ;;nfcss slble for an army even twice as hume rous as that which We combatted to re- slst such attacks.
 The firing continued till 6 o'clock as on the preceding days, but gradually a. bated about 3 o'clock. The soldiers fled successNely from the only houses which they occupied towards the States General, . ard took refuge in the lower grounds of the Park, near the Palaces of the King and Prince. A great num- Der of them were killed during the re treat. Our citizens waited for them as they came out of the houses, and fired on them with muskets as they passed.
 Atsix o'clock, the fire had caught the houses in the vicinity of the Palace. At the beginning of the night this fire {of which we shall give some particulars below illuminated the whole place be- fore the Park. The Volunteers of Gharleroi, Gossilies, and other towns, who were soon joined by several BruN- ellois, stationed themselves near the Ho- tel de Belle Vue, and thence fired upon the soldiers, who still escaped from the Palaces. At tlength, about four o'clock in the morning, all the Dutch who had escaped the carnage of the day effected their complete retreat from our walls.
 Animmense crowd proceeded at day break to the places abandoned by these cowardIy incendiaries. These places presented only vast scene of desolation and carnage. The alleys of the Park are dyed with blood, and several corpscs horribly mutillated and striped, having been forgotten by the enemy and lie at the foot of the passages hardly covered with few branches of trees fragmentsofiron railing, and of statues, destroyed by the grape-shot, lie on all the roads. The carcases of six artille- " horses have been placed by the ene- my as a redoubt at the Park gate, op- posite the staircase of the library.
 The wing of the palace usually oeeu- pied by Prince Frederick, the Hotel de Belle Vue, the Coffee house de FAmitie, arc pierced every where with musket and cannon balls; the same is the case with all the houses of the Montague du Pare, and great pert of those in the Rue Royale.
 The people, and great number of volunteers in arms, this morning, at se- ven o'clock, were in ali the avenues of the Park and the adjacent street; and soldiers, either deserters or prisoners, are new in greatnumhers in every quar- ter.
 M. de Hoogvorst, who was going to the palace, having appeared among the crowd, was received with huzzas and cries of Liberty forever! ltis impossible to describe the intoxication of joy of all the population, at length deliveredfrom their barbarous invaders. The Pala- ces, on which the standard of Bribant is hoisted, are guarded by posts of yo- lunteers we'll armed; the Commandant Don Juan d'!iulen, removed his head quarters thither this morning. We are informed that measures are taken vigo. rously to pursue the enemy, who have already withdrawn to the distance o more than two leagues from the city, Two notices were posted up yesterday one announcing that to prevent the dan gers which might arise from the fall ol a she'll into the gas works, the gas will be drawnot1. The citizens are request ed to place lights in their windows, to prevent the city from being involved in darkness.
 (This request was compiled with, and the city we'll lighted by the citizens.)
 The other notice was to tic effect, that in the present critical state of at- fairs, the Provisional Government was constituted as follows: Baron Wander linden d'Heegyerst; Chevalier Rogier, Advocate in the Tribunal of iiege; Count, Felix de Murode; Gendebien, Advocate in the Tribunal of Brussels I.ylvain de Weyer, ditto; Jolly, late Officer of Engineers; Joseph Wander linden, Treasurer; J. Nicolay, Advo- cate, and r. de Coppin Secretaries.
 All these gentlemen accepted their functions.
