BELGIUM g. uOLLAND-The

DELGlC M S llOLLAN D.-Ihe
accounts received yesterday from the
Netherlands give good reason for believ-
ing that, rs both parties have agreed to
an armistic Of six weeks, the Allies will,
either by force or persuasion, be enabled
to produce some settlement of the dis
putes between the Dutch and Belgians.
The Dutch will, probably, in the course
ofthe proceedings, be compelled to make
some reparation for the losses sustained
through the cutting Of the dykes and the
overilowing of the land in the vicinity Of
Antwerp; while the Belgians, on their
part, will be compelled to abate some of
those claims and pretensions which re-
cent events have proved they have nei-
ther the power nor the courage to sup
port.
The Ministers Of the Five Powers at
London, have published a Manifesto in
relation to the war with Holland, and the
march of the French troops into Bel
GUM, from which the following is extract
ed
"The Plcni potentiaries Of the Five
Powers regard the entrance ofthe French
troops into Belgium as having taken
place, .T1 wilh uny intention peculiar to
France, but for an object towards which
the deliberations ofthe Conference were
directed, and it remained understood that
the extent to be given to the operations
of these troops, and their continuance in
Belgium, should be fixed by common a
grcement between the Five Courts at the
Conference in London. II also remain
ton ofthe English fleet should be rcquir-
ed, this fleet should act only for the pur-
pose of accomplishing the same views,
upon the same principles. Besides, it
remained agreed that the French troops
should not pass the ancient frontiers of
Holland, that their operations should be
coufned to the left bank of the Meuse, s.
under no circumstances should they in
vest the fortress Of fMaestricht, or that OF
Eenloo, because then the war would be
carried too near the frontiers of Prussia
and Germany, and might give rise to Sc
rious and complicated questions which
the Powers were desirous Of avoiding; &
finally, that in conformity with the declar-
alton made by the French Government
to the representatives of the four Courts
at Paris, the French troops should retire
within the limits Of France, as soon as
the armistic was re-establishcd as it cx-
istcd before the renewal of hostilhies.-
Finally, the Conference agreed that
these last events ought to induce it the
more strongly to occupy itself with de-
finitive treaty calculated to put an end to
all difference between Holland and Bel
gium, and which was indispensable for
the maintenance of the general peace"
1t appears that 100000 muskets have
been distributed among the French Ma
tional Guards, since July, 1880, the from
tier departments having had the largest
share.
The Reform Bill was still under dis
ciission in committee Of the House of
Commons. Lord Alhorpe expressed
hope that the committee would get through
their labours on the bill before the coro-
nation. The harvest in every part of
England had been unusually productive,
and the weather for gathering it favora-
BILE.
The report of the breaking out Of the
Cholera at Vienna was uniounded. This
disease was abatng at Perth.-The state
of health in St. Petersburgh continued to
improve.
From the New York Eve. Post of Tuesday.
STILL LATER FROM EUROPE.
The packet ship Birmingham, Capt.
Harris, has arrived from Liverpool,
bringing papers of that place to the 9th
of September, and London papers to the
9th.
We find in them the Orders Of the
Day issued by Gen. Skrzynecki on re-
signing, and of Gen. Dembinski on as
suming the supreme command of the
Polish armies 1t is clear from these
that the Polish government have lost
somewhat of their confidence in the late
Commander-n- Chief, though we see no
confirmation of the Prussian account
Of an insurrection in Warsaw which
had changed the government of that
city and compelled Skrzynecki to re-
sign. This resignation was in obedience,
it appears, to the will of the Diet, who
were probable impressed with a high
idea of the military talents of Dembinski
from the deXtcrity and activity shown
in his late operations in Lithuania.-
Some complaint has been made lately
