On Tlnrrs ♦lay, tin- signers of the address to the King, consisting of the chief inhabitants of that city—nobles, bankers, merchants FRaiiiiliietarers, and members of the dif ferent learned professions, assembled at the Hotel de Villi*, to receive the report of their deputation, n copy id' which will la- found amongst our extracts This report, ns may he supposed, had been expected with great impudence, by the inhabitants of n'l classes, and, as soon its printed, it was posted up indilfercnl parts ofthe town, in order to gratify public Curiosity. The report stales that, as Hoon as the Deputation had arrived at the Hague, on Holiday lust, they iniaie iUnlcly demanded tin audience of the King, mid. in about half mi hoar received un answer, slating that the King would see them next day at the palace. On their arrival they were received witli much kindness; and (he first thing Unit the King did. was to ask them the authority under which they acted, mid which, though set up in opposition to his own, mid virtually independent of it. he deemed it expedient to recognise. This preliminary measure being thus settled to tin- satisfaction of the Deputies, they proceeded to read the address, at the conclusion of which the King siMil he was charmed at having anticipated one of their wishes—that of convening the Slates General. The de putation then stated the various points “which they were commissioned to lay before (ho King; and the remarks of the latter show-(he perplexity under which .he labored. -He evid -atly felt the utmost repugnance to yield, hut was afraid to re fuse; and the results betray those con ilieting sentiments, no\dclinitive resolu tion having l.cea adopted, though much -was promised The deputation find, nllerwards a long -conference with the Vniaisters. in which the flutter are said to have conducted themselves with n frankness and cordiality which inspired the deputation wrth the best hopes. No mention, however, is made ofthe impres sion produced by the report on the sign ers of the address; and we can only infer tlial it wus favorable from their having invited two ofthe Deputies to |>ruceed to the palace ofthe Pciu<v*«f I »j-nngo, in or der to apprise liis Royal Highness of the results of their mission to tbejAague, and «t the same time to describe to him the. real slate ofthe |Hiblie mind. The eon t’errnee between the Deputies and the Prince hud not terminated w hcji the briissHs papers went to press, hut it ollioinity announced that every thing proceeded favourably, and that, the issue ■was expected to be most satisfactory. 'Notwithstanding litis official announce ment. the people displayed grout signs of .agitation in the course of the evening, stocnim which the General of the 11 urglier Guard repaired to the Grande place, ■whence he read to them a proclamation of the commission appointed to treat with the Prince, at the head of ndwch vna,the Duke d’L’rsel, and from the co x/Wiich we snlijoiii, it will be seen th.il Jjp most sturdy asserters ofpnpular right:- IfiHl no cause to complain ofthe conduct -flihe commission.

The deputation, with the ban ner of Liege floating before them, parad ed the principal streets, and in tin* pro cession were five chests of muskets, which they brought to complete the ar ming of the people of Brussels; also sev end Members ofthe Second Chamber of the Kittles-General, well known far their liberal principles, had arrived in Brussels ’ to join the popular movement; mid, upon a proceeding which speaks volumes to every enlightened man, it is unnecessary to make any comment. Also deputa tions from Louvain, Alost, Atii, and other cities, had arrived for the same purpose; and we must not omit one of the most striking features of a movement, which, if ever there was one, is national—we mean the co-operation ofthe most ancient and powerful families with the people.

Sept 2. \Vlien the events of winch Belgium Inis lately been the theatre became-known, it was easy to foresee that Prussia would not behold with indifference, the serious disorder which laid been committed by a popula tion hitherto tranquil and faithful. 11 is aflirmed to-day that all the troops of (hat initio -, begin to make demonstrations towards the frontier; and though these movements do not in any manner threa ten Franco, they arc calculated to exeiti uneasiness in people's minds respecting the consequences which may result from them.

As lute as the loth of August— i namely, throe days after the’account of i tin- revolution of Paris had been receiv ed—the Gazette tie Kt.

At no period since the great panic ol 1K24 and lM2t>, has there been such an ex traordinary degree of excitement among tlie speculators in the piddle Funds, as that which prevailed to-day; and so ge nernl was the desire to sell {Stock, that we have to notice n depression in Con sols for the Account of not less than two and n half percent, on the closing quo tation of yesterday afternoon. The de cline since this day week may he slated at fell five per coat. To account for tin* depression of to day. a variety of rumours were circulat ed ; and for a lime the most absurd statements met with credit, or. at least, tended to in-crease the general alarm. The real cause of the decline is stated to he a want of confidence -among the private bankers in the stability of many of tlie large speculators in the Funds, and that the former, to protect them selves, have thrown an immense amount of Stock pledged with them into the hands of the latter, who hud no other re source hut to bring it to market That this was the real state of tlie ease may j be more accurately known by the know ledge of the fact that the public are not -is yrt -extensive sellers ol stock ; and all the large sales made within the last day or two have been by, or for, parties who are e/jeculuturs in the Funds. <a LATEST FIIO4I ENGLAND. Baltimork, Oct. 19. The packet shin Birmingham, at New York, brings London papers to the eve ning ofthe (,th. and Liverpool to the bill Keptembcr, both inclusive. The fact of the acknowledgement of Louis Philip l»y Great Britain, had diffus ed great joy in France. . • It is stated that Count de UayncviHe had retuned from Vienna to Paris, with information that the Emperor of Austria was fully disposed to acknowledge the new French Government. The Court of Russia had not yet ac knowledged the change in the Govern ment; hut, on the contrary had interdict ed all intercourse between tlie two coun tries, not allowing any French ships to enter the ports of Russia carrying the tri-colored ting; at the sumo time the in terdict extends to nil French travellers. The intelligence which had reached Kt. Petersburg, was, however, the mere fact that a revolution had broken out in France, nothing was known ofthe result. It was believed when tlte facts reached Russia, that tranquility had been restor ed in France; that the French have elect ed the Duke of Orleans to he their King; that the British Government have ac knowledged the wisdom of the choice; that Austria is well disposed towards the new Constitution and that oilier coun tries equally alliieted were disposed to. (ling off and some ofthem had actually flung oil', the shackles of tyranny,—the Emperor of Russia will remove all tin restrictions, and permit a free intercourse between the two nations. The following is un extract of a letter obtained from Kt. Petersburg, dated the 21st Aug. *'4 <m will, I have no doubt, he consid erably surprised aJUlhe coarse adopted by the Russian C'nlnnct towards the new French Government, ns it lias given no tice that no vessels having the tri-colored (lag hoisted shall enter onr ports and tlml- Ihose bearing the white flag of France only shall be allowed to anchor. After the many statements which have been circulated here ofthe concurrence ofthe Emperor in a change in France, the French residents have been surprised beyond measure. It has been fully expected that there w ere some events of importance on the tapis, ns the Russian Ministry have had almost daily meetings, to which occa sionally luix cliecn summoned the British,. Austrian, tvnd the French Ambassadors. It is believer! by ninny persons here, looking on the bright side of the picture, that the notice issued by (he Russian gov ernment will only be of n temporaly na ture, that the hostility of tiro emperor to •he tri colored (lug will be wholly done away with when be learns that Great Britain lias recognized the new French King. It mttrthe here mentioned that •he British Ambassador when asked by the Ministers ofthe Emperor, as to his opinions ofthe probable coarse his Gov ernment would pursue, lie Instantly re plied that it washisconvictionthat Great Britain would not do any tiling tending militate against the will oftho French eople. This is the story-current here, nnong parties who sometimes have pos sessed good information, *V I see no rea son to doubt (he correct ness ofthe slate meat. “ The merchants and other French re sidents here have hud an intimation giv en to them that they arc not to make any sort of public demonstrations of joy in consequence of the late transactions m Paris, under pain of being ordered to quit (to; country. Politicians here are awaiting xvitli much anxiety (ho result of the present declared opinions ofthe Russian Government ” One letter, a London paper says, is in (own, which states that all the natives of France resident in St. Petersburg and tin- other principal Russian cities and towns have been ordered to leave in a days. Tliis statement is not borne out ' by any of the advices from the most res pectable sources. It is said farther that the Emperor Nicholas intended to make a li-esli levy of men. 11l addition to Hint of which notice was issued only a short time ago. This assertion is not eonflrm ed. The great review of the National Guard in the Champ de itlors, which had been for several weeks in preparation, was on Sunday the 291 h. The number of the guard was fifty thousand, the ( whole of them elotfced at. their own ex pease, and serving without pay or emo lument. The population poured out in immense numbers to witness tin* truly 1 patriotic display; one nccount says, xvitii exaggeration doubtless, that not less than ' half a million weitc present. Lafayette acted ns the vcoinmiinder-in-cliief on tlie occasion, and received un the ground tlie congratulations of the Alnni ipality of i Parts. “This is a glorious day for you i and up," said the prolocutor ofthe Aliini- . eipnlily. ‘‘Glorious indeed," replied the old hero, “the eighty nine was n great day. hut this is much greater.” In the midst ofthe review, a mass of persons was seen slowly advancing amidst the shonts ofthe surrounding spectators—it xx as the wounded in the light of the Three Days, who had crawled and been curried from the hospitals to viexv the splendid show, which, hut for their exer tions, would never have taken place.—. Amidst this hand of patriots were seen hoys of not more than twelve years of age who had risked their Jjves on that memorable occasion, and women xx-ho bad forgotten their sex's fears in tlie dan gers of their country. The fallowing letter, addressed by the King to Lafay ette on the same evening, is character istic “I am anxious to learn, my dear Cion-' crnl, bow you find yourself after tins glo rious day; fori am fearful that you must he overcome with fatigue; but I have another object which lies near my heart, namely, to request you to lie the inter preter of my feelings towards those glo rious National Guards, of wliom you arc the patriarch.

After the reading of the Journal, the speaker remarked that Mr. Wolford's resolution in relation to the survey oflhe ■ Cherokee lands was before the house for ' the appointment ofu committee. Mr, WOFFORD rose and said he wouldoller a substitute which was to this effect—that a committee be appoint ed to join the like committee from the •Senate, to take into consideration so much of the Governor’s Message ns re lates to the survey ofthe Cherokee lands, with leave to report by bill or otherwise. Mr. HAY \Ed remarked that he thought the disposition of the house seemed to he yesterday to make the re Terence to the joint committee on the State ofthe Republic. It had been mov ed to lay the resolution on the table for the purpose of refering the subject to that committee. Ho tad introduced a notice lor a committee to prepare and report a bill on the subject at once, but as many gentlemen thought that the proper com mittee, was the joint standing committee on the Stale ofthe Republic, he was con tent to let it take that course. Mr. WOFFORD remarked that lie did not know how the gentleman from Hancock knew the wish ofthe house to give the subject that reference. I know, said he, that such a disposition was inani lested by sonic gentleman. Hut he hop cd the house would pursue the course of the resolution. He believed that was the usual course in s uch cases. When a sur vey was to be made it was referred to a joint select committee. He had one ob jection to the joint standing committee of which he was a member. It is well known that there is usually n large mass of business referred to that committee.— This house has some feeling on this sub ject, and Ids object was to have ft com mittee to investigate the whole matter at an early day, and fetch it before the legis lalure in a shape proper to he acted on, and that every man might vote on it as he thought best. He had some feeling on the subject, and therefore he urged it. Mr, HUDSON remarked that theques tion wus an important one, and if the fact was certain that we had the right to sur vey. the course pointed out by the reso lution was the proper one. Hut he ap pealed to the good sense of every gentle man, whether there was not an enquiry now going on, whether we had the right or not. Refer the subject to a large joint ntmuling committee, ami that committee will collect the facts, ns to the right ol' survey: and if that right be found to ex ist, then the course of the gentleman from Haljershnni is correct. Rut if we think we have the right, it is due to the people ofthe United Slates, that our rea sons should he laid before them. He hoped the subject \yjald bo referred to die committee, on the Stale ofthe Repub lic. Tlie question involves not the sin gle point of survey, hut rather a system of measures. The whole should he com • hined and arranged, together with the facts and reasons on which they are founded, so that when a hill is reported, the reasons for it should he reported with it. and go before the people for their sat isfaction. Mr. MURRAY hoped that from the expression of the house yesterday the difficulty would lie easily gotten over.— He was able, he thought, now to bring up the question in such a shape as would. embrace his own views, and the views of oilier gentlemen. He had drawn up some resolutions which would uat only cover that particular object, but the whole ofthe Governor's Message. This was in conformity with the usage of the house, and was due to the Message itself. He therefore oll'ered his resolutions as a substitute for the one on die table. The Sl’l’.V KE R decided that it was not now in order. Mr. WOFFORD remarked that he' was apprised ofthe influence of the op posers of his resolution. Rut he thought their reasons were the very reasons why it should be adopted. His object was to have .the salject thoroughly investigated. W here will the committee originate/ Will not the speaker appoint them. And cannot lie appoint those whose imme diate duty it will be to investigate it? He was on the committee, on the fettate' ofthe Republic. And he knew that the. usual course with that committee was to refer subjects to suh-committecs—where they are kept for some time. His object was to bring the subject before the house at once. Mr. RYAN remarked that ns to the survey, lie thought there was no doubt. To him it appeared to be a question of i expediency altogether. It had been well I observed by the gentleman from Putnam, j that information was necessary for per | sons nt » distance. Phe whole subject should be managed with great caution; and after a decision is had upon it, it should he pursued with energy. As to the proper committee, he thought it should take tlie usual course. The main object was to ascertain the sense of the house. There were a number of natters so inti mately connected with the subject, as to make it dangerous to carve them out to different committees. 'Phe subjects were so Wended that they could not well be separated. The committee on the State of the Republic, he thought, should be charged with the whole subject. Mr. DOUGHERTY remarked that he thought the house should pursue prece dent—lay the resolution on the table for the present, and when it is called up, the genikinaa CumldJicola can oiler his sub- r, stitutc covering the whole Message. ){g B thought the views of the gentleman from ® i. Warren were good, while those of tho 1- gentleman from Habersham were with out foundation. Ho holds that if we ro. i, for it to the joint standing committee on I, the State of the Republic, would los« time. Now I would ask, said Mr. D. - what obligation you have on any meat- I her of thjs house or of any committee, but his sense of duty to the honse, and to thu - country. Hy what authority enn you i. compel either a joint standing committee ! - ora select committee, to attend to husi - ness confided to them ? Appoint a large committee on this subject and what gua f rantce have yon that they will attend to s their business better than the joint stand ing committee? s Mr. D. again remarked tnat the views ofthe gentleman from Warren, were ir- V i refutable. The survey was not the only I question. If wc examine the message . we will And many questions presented in it.
