414 ~'~ FLAND.EIIs MAIL. raossrta, Dec. 13.—The English Lord Cath eart, British Ambassador to the Court of RusAia, arrived here yesterday, On his return from St. Pc tersburgh. AMSTERDAM, Dcc. 7.—Last Friday morning an express arrived from th, Hague to the Police Mike ; the next morning Mr. Wiselius, the Director Ge ment' of the Police, arrived from the Hague, and had immediately a lone , conference with the Secre tary of the Police Office, M. B. de Tullee. After which the latter toek passports, and set out on Mo,i iav post for Paris. It is not doubted here, but that thilkudden journey of M. Tullee is relative to an affair which has been often mentioned, and is still involved in mystery We learn from the Hague, thwt Al de Wiselius had on Weanesday last a con _ _ ferenee of some hours with the Minister of Justice, M. Van Maanan , and that on Friday the Minister went two or three times to the residence of M. ♦Viselius, kisove, Dec. 10.—Recent accounts from Am sterdam give some information respecting the two persons arrested by superior authority, of whom we have already spoken. One, who was arrested under the name of V. D. M. and wha is confined under a guard at the lintel de Hamburg, is not Mr. Vander illeuten, but Mr. 13. of the family of that same, very well known at Leyden, and who bas held important posts in the Magistracy. In 1818, Mr. B. executed the tnnetions of Se cretary at Zurphen. On the arrival J the Cos sacks he performed some services, for which he was rewarded with the Order of the Belgic Lion. The reason of his quitting his post in tLe town of Zor-. phen is not well known ; but it is certain that a little time after the Revolution, in 1813, he resided a long time at Brussels as a private individaal, where he was intimately connected with Mr. B. lately arrived at Lisse, younger son of Mr, L. R. 11. who in 1815 distinguished himself as a zealous partizan of the existing order of things. In the summer of 1818, these two persona were • for a short time at Aix-la-Chapelle and Spa, where ithey received marks of kindness from a distinguished personage. They left those parts together, for Paris, where they settled, 'making, however, fre .Mueutly, each separately, a journey, sometimes to Brussels, and then lately to Amsterdam, till they were arrested, some weeks since in the latter city. . A VOSDUR49. Dee 3. —None of the changes in the Bavarian Ministry, of which so much has been said, have yet .taken place. The ponnution of M. de Monteglas to an unient dignity (that of Chan cellor of the State) becomes still more problematical, though it has already been announced as positive. Boaz, Nov. IB.—lt is generally reported that Messrs. Schmitz, Groclenbueg, and 'curekheian, the Envoys of the German Princes, will soon return to Route. It is added, that M. Niebuhr, the Pros • 'den Minister of Rome, has received fresh instruc tions; and that Al. de Rhetlett, Minister of Ham,- rer, bus received orders to aecelerate his negoci stions ; whence it is presumed, that the Congress •'oaf Carlsbad rerominentled to the Protestant Sove reigns, to conclude agreements the Holy See, • and to put an end to the niattifokl complaints of their Catholic subjects. respecting religious matters• It is probable that both parties will be content with the preliminary Conventions, principally for the nomination of Bishops, which is the e.oential point. Tate Protestant Sovereigns of Germany have never ceased to grant to their Catholic sub jects all the rights compatible with the actual s) stem of Government, and with the rights of their sub jects. The difficulties which impede a Convention (io not arise from them, but fie m the nature of the affair itself'. COURT MARTIAL. AT ST.

December 15. • • The most alarming reports of insurrectionary movements, on the part of the Radical Reformers, continue to be circulated here with great industry, and came the most painful sensatians. If we niay credit these rumours, most positive accounts have, certainly, reached this place, that a simultaneous rising is perfectly organized, and that the insurrec tionists, in every towit, mean to divide into sections, and in that way proceed at one and the titue time to the quarters of the military, mid seise gprta their arms! But happily, the design has got wind, and I+n:cautious arc cvcry when taking to guard against DEC. go it ; and ilium= bralieo of troops are pourini to wands this district. To prove that some well-founded suspicions are entertained that serious mischiefis meditated, the soldiers in this town and neighbour hood have been kept in a state of readiness to act at a moment's notice these five nights past. Additional Barracks are to be forthwith prepared for the strung, military force tinder orders for this place. GLASGOW. " TUESDAY, Dec. 14. Excepting the stir ace. skilled in t►e town yesterday by the arrival of the troops from the East country, nothing unusual took place. Such, however, is the complexion of the times, that every precaution is proper; and the Magistrates deserve warm commendation for their vigilance ; since, although the evil-disposed are too few to set on foot any thing like an insurrection, they might excite a riot, and occasion some destruc tion of property. There is, however, no cause for alarm. We have reason to believe that the Radicals in the city and suburbs do not amount to one eigh tieth part of the population ; and we believe that but a small proportion of this small fraction meditate violence. It ought not to be forgotten that it is their object to intimidate. " The streets began to get a little thrunger than usual about nine o clock in the morning ; sad about ten a strung detachment of the I.3th regatient passed through the town for Paisley. About eleven, She Stirling Yeomanry Cavalry arrived: and at twelve the Mid Lothian Yeomanry Cavalry (a very fine looking corps, headed by the Solicitor-General) came in from Hamilton, and brought two piecea of artillery ; and about one, a troop of the 10th Hus sars also arrived. These successive arrivals of such powerful masses of military brought great crowds into the streets; and from the barracks to the Cross, theGalkurgata.street was verythronged till the even ing. The streets were as quiet as usual through the night, and even the city lamps, which are gene. rally the first victims of rabbi.e hostility, escaped. " In Calton and Bridgetown almost a Sunday silence prevailed ; there were tew weavers working; the windows were mostly shut up. There were. however, fewer people luau usual in the street*. " In some of the country towns little work was done by the Radicals. At Pullolshaws a few of them turned out to a ficki at some distance, and a shoemaker made them two or three speeches on the history and mystery of the British Constitu. tion."
