WARS AND RUMoRs OF WARS. l: is said the
King of Holland is preparing TO march 81 900
men into Belgium, and tina. this will be oppos
ed by an armed occupation OF Belgium by the
forces of England, Prussia and France. The
Prussian troops of the Rhine, have received
orders to be ready to march at moments no.
tlce. An Austrian army of 10000 men will be
stationed in Bohemia, and a corps of 80, 900 men
on the frontiers of Tyrol and Italy. Early in
March, 10000 horses were purchased for the
Austrian army, and large addition was made
to the medical service. The Austrian loan re-
Gently effected was G3,600,000 sterling.
call for the war service on 600 National
Guards, was expected at Paris, March 80. A
camp of 49, 900 men was about TO be formed at
Pontivy, a town 80 miles n. E. of L'Orlent.
An army of 10000 men at the last OF March,
being part of the force of the Germanic Con-
federation, were about to cross the Rhine and
take position between Mayence and Landau.
The Dutch Government was negotiating a
loan of 40 to IS millions of forms, about II
millions of dollars. The effective army of the
Swiss Cartons is now 10000. new levy of
$4,000 was expected at Turin early in April
There were already at Turin $4,000 men, be-
sides $4,000 at and near Genoa and 5000 at
Conf. The new French loan is to be about G5,-
100000 stg. Another loan Of "a 600, 900 stg. is
warranted, if required. An encounter took
place March 90, at Kehl, between a party of
Badeners and of French troops, stationed near
the Rhine. 1t ended without much bloodshed.
A new levy for the Russian armies had been
ordered, from which the ordinary exemptions
were disa!owed.
A careful perusal of copious files of London
papers, received by recent arrivals has left upon
US the impression, that the English Press gen.
orally would be glad to find France engaged in
a war with Austria AS the cloud of mystery
lifts itself from the affairs Of Poland, we see
little to encourage the hope, that the Poles I'M
aided will long withstand the overwhelming
power of Russia.-BOStOn Patriot.
REFORMATION IN FRANCE. We commitment
ed to our readers, some time since, in an arti-
Gle copied from the Episcopal Recorder, all the
information we then possessed of an unexam-
pied secession from the Church of Rome, in
France The London Record confirms the
statements then made. The Record gives the
following particulars The secession is on
very large scale indeed. The numbers, by
the accounts which have reached us, amount ut
least to $500 Ministers, in which number, we
understand even bishops are included They
purpose wholly to separate themselves from the
Papal Church, and we believe, also from the
State. AS the directory of faith they profess to
rest wholly on the Scriptures, and a Confession
of Faith, or Creed, grounded on this basis, is
already in circulation. The substance of it is
denial of the intallibility of the Pope and the
Romish Church a remuneration of the Latin
mass, the cehbacy of priests, and auricular con-
feSslon they acknowledge only, as valid, two
sacramen:s, Baptism and the Supper of the
Lord"
A general meeting had been held at Paris,
but no account of its result had reached London
