the kingston chronicw5 saturday novr mbcr 20a 1830 05- that huge leviathan the lower canada watchman this week occupies the space usually devoted to points in history we trust our cle ver correspondent will pardon the una voidable delay this week we have again to regret the nonarrival of the albion when our paper went to press our latest dates bm from london octl5th from ports mouth 17th brought to ncy york in 2g days by the packet ship brighton by the kindness of mr hall of the new york commercial advertiser whose attention on many former occa sions we are equally bound to acknow ledge we are enabled to lay before our readers several items of a very interest ing nature we learn from these communications that the prussians have entered belgium in great force headed by prince albert they have opened at three several points first by encreasing the garrison of luxemburg from 4000 to 16000 y maastricht with 6000 and some where farther north in guelders but where is not clearly defined with 8000 the whole are marching upon brussels it is said the whole force destined for this service will amount to 50000 men we must in common with the editor of the commercial adver tiser regret that his english papers had not all come regularly to hand as we are for this reason deprived of the as we are lor this reason deprived of the corroboration of the fact as well as of the speculations of the london press t all times desirable as showing the views of parly and often valuable as ema nating from sources of high authority the london standard a journal to which we are not willing to pay much deference appears to regard the situa tion of the belgian constitutionalists as quite desperate and talks of nothing but submission although their own cor respondent gives a very animated des cription of the spirit of independence and resistance among that aggravated people spain is still in a state of ferment al though no overt act of insurrection can be said to have taken place the murderofthc abbot of st basil is a horrible trail in the spanish character and pleads stiongly in favor of a change of some kind a long list of changes in the administration of affairs has been submitted to ferdinand who seems de termined to use the severest measures to aid his schemes calomarde has been threatened with decapita tion the transpyrennean army of insurgements are said to be in a deplora ble disappointed and disorganised state in portugal matters still remain as before it is however surmised that don miguel anticipates expulsion as he the belgian provisional government has refused to allow eveo belgians from abroad to enter that country the proceedings of the bruxel lots pro visional government aro far from wearing the appearanco of ao intended submission or any distrust in their own means of de fence spain a decree was issued declaring all persons concerned in plans for the e- tablishmcnt of another form of govern ment to he subject to the penally of death the abbot of the conveot of st basil was found a corpse in his bod the head se parated from the body and a mattress over him he was a moderate man he was generally esteemed and bad occasionally preserved many liberals from the aposto lical wrath he had lately forbid his own friars to say mass on account of their licon- tinusness and it is believed he has been as sassinated by them from almost every part of germany we daily hear of disturbances of a local or a general character the gazette of hanover denies official ly what has been stated in the german pa pers that the public tranquility has been disturbed they daily expect the orders of king william iv to furnish the hano verian army with its foil compliment oct 15 great britain ministers have been in active communication the whole morning sir r peel lord melville the chaocellor of the exchequer and lord elleoborough had long interviews with the duke of wel lington the moroiog herald says a good deal of surprise bas been expressed at sir george murrays removal from the coloni al department which coupled with the previous transfer of sir heory hardioge from the war office looks as if the premier had taken the hint so often given him that bis administration had partaken rather too much of the character of a military go vernment further despatches have been received at the foreign office this morning from pa ris and the hague after their arrival prince talleyrand had a long conference with the foreign secretary his excel lency was afterwards closetted for a con- at a meeting of the president and di rectors of the midland district agricultu ral society held yesterday at mr davys ion at bath which was well attended a statement was submitted from tho treasu rer shewing that the sum of fifty one pounds fifteen shillings had been actually paid into his hands by the members of the institu tion this turn exceeding a little the a- mount of subscriptions required to be col lected a petition was drawn up and signed by those present praying his excellency the lieutenant governor to grant tho sum authorised by the statute in aid and sup port of tho society aod the secretary was requested to transmit tho same to york together with the treasurers state ment certifying the amount of money in his hands after the transaction of some other bu siness tho meeting broke up and several members of the society sat down to a din ner prepared by mr davy at which the greatest hilarity and good feeling prevail ed the health of our gracious king and queen aod his representative in this co ny were right loyally drunk as well as many appropriate toasts coooected with the objects of this society viz the ira- provementiof our agriculture aod the pro motion of domestic industry a proposal which met with the approbation of nil pre sent was made that at all general or spe cial meetings of the society the members should he clad in garments made of cana dian cloth and it was agreed that this pro posal should

adopting various moans of defence whilst the prince frederick is arranging for auotbor aud tuoro successful attack proportioned to the length of service in a similar ratio as there is scarcely a corps in the service affording instunces ofthe pro motion of officers without purchase equal to the gracious provision promulgated in the warrant it is also expected that the liouteoaots who were actually serving on full pay in 1811 and the captains holding their regimental rank with superior brevet rank in the army of the year 1808 who did not accept the boon of promotion offered to them will have their vacancies filled up by an equal number from the seniors of their respective ranks which would give unat tached promotion to nearly nil the newly created brevet majors as those of the ar tillery engineers and marines might not accept it the average age and service of those who have obtained their several pro motions without purchase is age 50 years aod service 32 years supposing them to have served two years as ensigo 8 as lieu tenant and 22 a captain and the lieu tenants of i8l2 by this calculation would average 30 years of ago aod 21 of service limerick chronicle notice to
