and TO the 18th from London.
The storm of war which was gathering o.
yer Europe, seems to have been dispersed as
rapidly as il rose. According to the news by
the Canada, bringing London dates of the
18th, the king of Holland had consented to
withdraw his troops from Belgium, an event
which was officially announced by Lord Pal
merston, in the House of Commons. on the
18th; and that, in consequence, the French
troops would forthwith return within their
borders. This little burst of war may there
fore, really conduce TO establish peace more
permanently
The conduct Of the Belgian troops when
IN face of the enemy, appears TO have been
most pusillanimous. They fled on two sove-
raj occasions, it IS said, withou, firing shot
-manliestly, without reloading if they did
fire. But for the presence of the French
troops IN Brussels, there can be little reason

The news from Poland is more favorable,
and that the investigator into the conduct
of Schrynecki has resulted in his honorable
acquittal. This has produced union and con-

Accounts from Warsaw, dated the 2oth
