the city was terrible, when set on

The most important news by the

of Antwerp by the Dutch troops in
the citadel, by which an immense
loss of property was occasioned. An
armistice wus agreed o i the 27th,
by Chazul, commandant of the cita
del. to treat of a surrender, but it
was broken by the titi-ig n few mus
kets, which it is said, uc himself hud
secretly ordered, to make a pretext
for the destruction of the city.
During the negotiations, certain
unknown persons went towards the

Their Lordships met iir considerable numbers,

relief on the page of history
At an early day of the session the Premier had
greatly added to the popular excitement against
himself and colleagues by an explicit and empha
tic declaration, that it was not the intention ofthe
Ministers to yield choir assent to any measures of
reform in Pai lintunt. The growing disaffection
was manifested in a variety of ways. The cele
brated Hunt, of Radical notoriety, busied him
organizing bands df rioters, who nightly pa
raded the *t *>*.* *itn Imvmers flying,
and committed a variety of outrages. During
ibc:r progress the cries of the oiotors were—
‘•Dvivtu with Wellington ! —Down with the Now
Police! —Down with tin? Ministers !—and Reform
forever!” &tc.

hostilities, with Die greatest energy. Tlie Auto
