ministers io the chamber of deputies yesterday will have prepared yon for the resignation of m cm aimer perrier and the dissolution of his ministry the divisions of yesterday left no doubt on tbe step which m perrier would take- he bad not disguised his sentiments he made the election of a president of the chamber of deputies the test by which to ascertain the principles and character of the new chamber and he did not dissem ble his determination to retire in case ofao unfavourable issue af the experiment he is believed to have tendered his resignation immediately after the scrutiny which ended in the election of m girod de laio paris tuesday eveoioe up to four o clock this day oothiog has finally deter mined respecting the change of ministry consequent opoo the vote of yesterday but the retirement of m casimir perrier ah the other ministers with the exception of marshal soult came to the same determi nation but hit majesty pressed a reconsid eration of this step at 12 oclock this

promised a great majority iothe scrutioy for the presidency yester day and yet what was tbe result an ultra combination was forming out of doors and a list in circulation from m odillon barron general lamarque c at tbree oclock this latter attempt was a- baadooed for the moment principally it is said at the persuasion of m lafitte tbe london courier makes the follow log remarks upoo this result m casimir perier sensible of the impos sibility of retaining his place whilst he suf fered tbe enemies of freedom to prevail and being unwilling to pluoge the country into war sought the middle course and at tempted to form an alliance with our cabi net with reference to the coolest in poland which would enable him to dictate to rus sia without fearing the alternative of war the urgency with which he pressed this point and the sacrifices which he was ready to make on others in order to accomplish this object were known to us all along we have now before us a communication whbhhhhf hi thhivhhtm frlfchh in which he says the hesitation of the british cabinet to assist our views maybe productive of catamitoos results it may drive from office the present moderate men and introduce others who may create a etorm io europe which all its cabinets would not be able to subdue we hope we shall never have to regret the non-com- eliauee with the requests but this we are mad to say whatever might have been the sympathy of our own ministers in favor f the poles there ware reasons of state prudence which made it necessary that the interference of great britain should be made on separate grounds holland belgrinm decla ration of the renewal of hostilities against belgium by the king of holland we globe have received this morning the followiog important announcement from our private correspondent atbrossels bapssels aug 21831 evening the important intelligence has just reach ed us that general chasse has declared that the armistice will be fat an end on thursday tbe 4th august at 9 oclock in the evening the news has excited tbe greatest sensation in this capital groups of people gathered round the cafes and oo tbe public places are discussing it with a lively interest couriers are despatched io all directions his majesty king leopold who is now at liege would of course re ceive the intelligence direct from antwerp it will no doubt accelerate his return hi ther from the london morning herald of aug 5 there seems no doubt now that the ob- stinacy of the king of holland will lead to a war or at least prevent for a time that amicable adjustment of differences between the two divisions of the late kiogdom ofthe netherlands which the cocferreuces of lon don were so anxious to promote and which the accession of leopold to the throne of belgium seemed so likely to attaio the dutch majestys worthy representa tive chasse whose former doings at ant werp are never to be blotted from modern history has given such formal and short notice of bis designs that it seems impos sible to avert the consequences the correspondent of the globe says m the private accounts from belgium con firm the commencement of holilities by tbe advancement of 3jo0 dutch troops ac- cross tbe frontiers and it was uudeutood the whole jine had orders to cross intoilbel- gium ooc piece of intelligence is wary questionable though from a high snmurce of information at antwerp it states that the dutch fleet was scending the sotheer with the dutch and prussian colors ing and that prussian troops to somo exctent were oo board the squadron 2000 imore troops had entered the dutch garrisom at antwerp the queen of holland left berlin om the 25th ult oo her return to the hague tak ing with her it is said a treaty uf alliaince offensive and defensive between pmnssia and holland constitutional a private letter from belgium describes the enthusiasm of the people as everywhere at its height in favor of kiog leopold dur ing jhis journey from aotwerp to leige where he was received with great rejoicing and evenjaddressed in a complaraetary speech by tielmaos the republican it was rumoured that the dutch kiihad beeo eocouraged to take this belligerent course by assurance of support from the kiog of prussia but of this there doe not appear to be any authentic information and it is staied in the times of the 5th that a commissioner from tne king of hol land mr van neyevelt had arrived in london for the purpose of opening new negotiations for the settlement of differen ces and that another commissioner from belgium would be invited to attend the con ferences which were to lake place postscript war by the canada at new york london dates to the 15th and from liverpool of 16th are received they contain long details of actual hostilities having ensued between the dutch and belgians that the king of holland should have taken this step in expectation of a single handed war with belgium would be supposing him of the swedish charles school immediately on the entrance ofthe dutch ar mies king leopold advised the british and french governments and their prompt decision by the entrance of a french army and the des patch of an english fleet to the scheldt ha en ded this brief and novel war the question of boundaries is to be revised by the allied powers it does not appear that this event alters the signs of the times but the excitement created by it is rather calculated to raise apprehensions ofthe future more favorable reports are received from po land but no movements ofthe armies had taken place we are led to hope that all the recent dissensions in warsaw have ceased
