LATE FROM ENGLAND.


The packet ship Geo. Washington arrived
ON Friday, bringtng I.iverp0ol papers to the
24th, and London to the Esd Of Nov.
HOli0nd.-The French army was before
Antwerp, and had summoned the city to sur
render, offering 40 hours to the commander to
give his reply. Asyet no blood has been shed !;
but the orders Of the day in that citadel, and
at Breda, intimate most fixed determination
to resist to the utmost. and to display 1.-THE an
Gent Dutch courage" The King also has
called out the second and third bands Of the
militia. s
Portugol.-Several events have occurred
in Portugal of some importance; but we are
unable to form any decided opinion Of their
bearing upon the great results Of the invasion.
Don Pedro has taken the command of his ar
my, but conferred on count Villa Flor the IL
tie Of Duke Of Terceira. Hess also said to
have taken 500 prisoners in a successful en-
gagement; while DON Miguel's troops are
stated to hold command Of the entrance Of
the river at Oporto. Don Miguel Is making
progress through the kingdom with his sis-
ter. Col. Hodges and Sir John Doyle had
resigned, and the former returned to England.
F'rahce.-An unsuccessful attempt was made
to assassinate the King of the French. The
crime was attempted on the bridge over which
the procession was passing to the Chambers Of
Deputies. which the king opened that day
| with speech.
I HOlland.-The London Times Of the esd
states, that the French troops before Ant
| werp amounted to $4,000 uaen, Of which
$4,000 were cavalry. Il is remarked that
Gen. Gerard avoids representing, in his pro-
CARNATIONS. the attack on the City or Ant
werp as an affair between the Dutch aud Bel
gians-as II because the conference placed
the decision OF affairs in the hands Of che En-
gIish and French. French troops had been
put into oil the iortresses near Antwerp, and
Z . said to have heen designed, IL that Cita-
del mad been given up, 10 garrison IL with
10000 Frenchmen. An accounts represent
| the prospect as certain of resistance to the
occupation OF the city by the French 40 il

Erench would immediately enter the country

and the procession moved on. The King
was a first shocked, but soon recovered his
presence Of mind. On arriving az the Cham
Der, the usual ceremonies were gone through,
after which the King delivered the SPNeeh.-
Assembly ON learning the atrocious attempt
that had been made on the Kings life. The

The 18th was the day fixed by the Convention be-

greater portion Of the squadron, remained at Deal.
1t appears that much uncertainty prevails in France
in regard the part which Prussia will act 1t appears
certain that the latter power has collected army
the Rhine and Belgian frontier. BY some il is suppo-
sed she will take possession Venlo which has been
allotted by the Conference TO Holland, and s now in
possession Of the BelgiaRs. BY others, more impor
tant views are attributed to Prussia. Paris paper
ofthe 18th contains the following:
"a person ofrespec,abity: who left the head quar-
tiers Of the French army on Friday evening and who
had opportunity Of frequently cOnvereing with Mar
sha Gerard relates TO As that the commander Of the
French army spoke openly OF the probability Of con.

the Prussans, and that plan Of campaign has been
laid down in case Of their Interference"

ST. VALENTINES DAY.

Mr.. Douce, gentleman Of the highest
authority on subjects ofthis kind, asserts that
the observance Of St. Valentines day, the
18th of February, is nothing more than a
monkish substitution of a Romaa custom
on the feast of the Luperca!, in which the
names CT young women were put into box
and drawn out by the men. The pastors of
the early Christian church substituted the
a4Gses Of saints FOR those of females' and
the conjecture that St. Valentines day was
chosen for the new feast.
The Lupercal was feast Of publication,
so!emnized IN the middle Of the month of Fee
bruary. which derives its lame from Latin
word sisnifying to purify The day OF cele-
bration yrs called FebRuaca.
