DUTCH PAPERS.

A ilamburgh Mail has brought us papers to the 7th in-

STOCKHOLM, JAW. 17.

Lam week a Norwegian officer set out tee Christiana, with the
Royal propoaitions to be laid before the Diet, at its opetang on the
2d February.
Yesterday bring the King's birth 'lay, the Crown Prince rave
a grand entertainment to the Royal Family and the Chief Officers

flur winter has hitherto been a mixture of spring and autumn.
We have DO reid, no snow, and fresh vegetables are cried about
the streets. It appears, from the accounts kcpt in the country,
that numerous wulves issue, from the forests at the close of the
autumn, and with extraordinary litry and boldre►s extended their
depredations to within has than two leagues of Stockholm; so that
if the winter had been yore we should have bum exposed to
gnat dank', from their remits.

MEXICO.

We have been favoured with the followinz extract of a
late letter from Mexico, addressed to a merchant in the
city:

The Government of Mexico appears to be at last
placed on a firm foundation. Much depends on the in-
dividuals at the head of the Government whose measures
should be accommodated to the genius and habits of the
people, and whose object it should be gradually to accus-
tom them to a more free and liberal Government than they
have enjoyed, and under which a great majority have been
born and ellecated. The Executive Power is composed of
sterling integrity and patriotism, namely, Bravo, Negred,
anti Victoria ; and supplementsrit a Michelane, Domingues,
and General Curry ra, Minister of State, Alaman, a
young loan of 30 years of age, who has been residing these
ten years in Spain, France, and England, conversant in
several languages. The Minister of Finance, Arrelague,
is a merchant of the first respectability, from Vera Cruz.
Llave, the Minister of Justice, is a man of superior attain-
ments. T.re Minister of War and Marine, Joaquim
Ilarrera, is a gentleman who, for private worth, integity,
and liberal ideas, is second to none. The political Chief,
Medium del Campo, has always been eater med for his libe-
ral ideas, his intelligence anti military skill ; and Mexico
is much indebted to him for the superior police which at
present is maintained. The election has taken place for a
new Congress, Bird the result has been favourable. Nearly
two-third' of the present Congress have been re-elected ;
and it is added, that better men cannot be found in the
country. Independent of this they are just learning the
feruaula.af Camprisimal. pormilizip, east
grouting slowly, and at times erring from premature 1b."3

beration on subjects, which, at this unenlightened stage of
the country, ought not to be touched, yet their intentions
ought not to be questioned.

A MATRIMONIAL HOAX.
BRIDGWATER, AtIOCIT 17.—An advertisement appear-
ed, a few weeks since, in one of the London Morning Pa-
pers, which purported to be from a gentleman, in want of
a female of good disposition and a cultivated mind, pos-
sessing fortune sufficient to give the advertiser (a surgeon)
the means of establishing himself in practice, and who
was willing to become the partner of his domestic comforts
through life, by accepting him as a husband ; 3n mower to
which, a young gentleman of this town addreswd a letter,
according to the directions of the advertisement, describ-
ing himself as a Miss Lucy Upland, the daughter of a
late merchant in Bristol, and possessing an independent for-
tune, but who, from the circumstance of her mother having
married a second time, wished particularly to alter her situ-
ation in life, and who would be glad to hear further parti-
culars of the gentleman. A reply was received by return
of post from the gentleman, giving his name John A—w,
etpreasing the greatest delight at the Lady's letter, and de-
scribing himself as a person of " a cultivated mind, an
equable temper, a moral and religious character, affec-
tionate disposition, domestic habits, and of the greatest re-
spectability." After this, a regular correspondence tool.
place, and it was settled that the gentleman should corn
to Bridgwater; on Saturday last he arrived at the Globe
Inn, where he engaged a couple of private rooms fora fort-
night, and was waited on by the young gentleman, as a
particular friend of Miss Upland's, and deputed by her to
visit him. On Sunday they walked to Church together,
and the evening was appointed for an interview with the
lady, but before the time arrived, two gentlemen who hap-
pened to be at the Globe, heard of the circumstance, diseo-
vered the hoax, and raised a complete laugh against the un-
fortunate surgeon, who vowed vengeance on the youth, and
addressed him a letter, compl • • g of his unfeeling and
unmanly conduct saying, that he was determined to pro-
ceed against him for for gery, and demanding satisfaction ; I
but before a reply could be sent, the Sociable Coach con-
veyed him from a spot, the remembrance of which will
no doubt for ever wring the tortured heart of so ardent and
disinterested a lover ! It is to be hoped that this will be a
▪ lesson to him for the future, and teach him that the ladies
• of Somersetshire are not so prodigal of their fortunes and
' personal attractions as to be duped by the schemes of a spe-
culating Cockney.—l'austois Courier.

PARLIAMENTARY INTELLIGENCE.

HOUSE OF LORDS, TUISDAY, Pap. I.

The F.a►l of ST. GERMANS took the oaths and his wed. Hla
Lorilehip being called to the House by patent, R 44 introdaced
the Earls of Harrowby and Santora.

TIIIJ CALL, OF Tlil;
The House then proceed to ballot for P:cwit, for the purpose of
/miring appeals. At the conclusion of the ballot, the order of the
Peers to attend to this duty was hied to the 20th of July.

STATE 4W lIViI.AND.

...... .
The Earl of DAAN LEY retnindiA the /louse, that on the firm
day of the Session lie haul promised, a; nil distant period, to bring
the present 'meteor Ireland umber their hordships'ininice, should he
not be anticipated in that cent and Mira:tont suhjrct by Kane one
better qualified to do it justice than he was, lie was anxious to
chew their I.ordships that he had not forgotten the pledge he had
Made in the last Session, which induced him thus early in the pre-
sent to draw the attention of the !louse to that ;.,rave question. Ile
thought that Ireland had of htte been regarded with more care by
his Majesty's Government, and that her situation had partially
amended ; but still there was much required to be done. If their
Lordships should not lie prepared to go into the full question, ha
thought it would be expedient for them to consider if the adoption
of another line of policy for the government of Ireland might not
be beneficial to that country. The present, he believed, was pre-
dimly the time to take new plats into consideration, and calmly to:
select upon them. It was his intention to submit a motion to their
Lordships, on Tuesday, the 211 March, relative to the state of Ire-
land ; but as he was anxious for the attendance of Noble Lords
connected with that part of the Empire, particularly the Noble
Viscount who so ably itenniled the Adder's, he would alter the
day, to suit the conernimice of those Noble horns he was s. desi.
rout of taking part in the discussion, should they wish it. It was
important that all the information that could ht obtained on the
subject should be laid before the Ilmise. Ile hoped the Noble'
Earl opposite would produce all documents that could shrw their I
Lordships what had been the operation of the Tithe Bull ; and he
should move that a message be sent to the lon ...... for a copy of
the Reportof the Committee appointrd by that lloust. relative to
the employment of the tinny in Ireland. together with the evidence
produced before the said Committee. Ilia lordship roncluded by
moving for several other papers connected with the subject of his
motion, and that the Peers be summoned fur Tuesday, the 3d of
Marsh.--Adjuurned.

yesterday before SHELTON. II upon the body of Janet

„
nut: ar Lis us.—l'esterday morning, about a quarter
past three o'clock, the extensive premises of Messrs. Sulk and
Ifortheld, iron-founders. and machine-makers, in Yak-stmt. in
this town, were discovered to be on tire, and from the progress
which the tlanies had then made, it was evident that the fire must
have been raging for a considerable time, and there must have been
extreme negligence on the part M the watch in not haritsg sooner
given the alarm. Engines belonging to the different fire companies
the town were brought to the spot with ever 7 possible repeat-
non ; but owing to the scarcity of water, some tame elapsed before
they could render any efficient sitaiptance, and the roof of the build-
ing in which the tire originated fell in very soon aim their arrival,
and in a very short time there remained nothing but the exterior
walls. It was with peat difficulty that the contigwous buildings,
which contained much valuable machinery, were pemerved. Among
the sufferers by this destructive fire are Mr. John Hikes, tobsceo-
cutter, the whole of whose utensils were destroyed. as well r a con-
siderable quantity of tobacco; and Mr. ti Atkimpon, cloth-
fricaer, who had the whole of his machinery and stack of goods dr.
stroyod. The building was Insured, but we are sorry to haws to
add, that no insurance was 'fleeted on any pow of the machinery.
The total loss is estimated at upwards of 4,W00L-..Lenis liftwareg

ment was agreed to be further prorogued from the 2 tth

though he was aware be must be beaten by • large majority, still
he sliould subsequently move a resolution sot ail. Win, for the pur.

On our return to the gallery, the rush of strangers wax so great

BARBAROUS MURDER Al' EAST ORINSTBAD.

A circumstance has just occurred at Forest-row, near
East Grinstead, which, for wanton and unnatural übs-
rity, stands almost unparalleled in the annals of crime.
Mr. —, of Forest-row, quarrelled with his nursery-maid
a fcw days ago, but the quarrel bad subsided, and he
thought nothing more about it. Saturday evening, how-
ever, a young child of the family was missing, sod the dis-
tressed parents made the most laborious but fruitless search
after it, during the whole of the night. It was not, how-
ever, till the next morning that the cause of the child's
disappearance was discovered, when, to the grief of its pa-
rents, it was found dead in the boiler that is used for wash-
ing. The maid was • oediately apprehended on suspi-
cion, and, we understand, has since confessed the crime,
adding, that " she did it to spite her master!" The dis-
closure of this horrid circumstance has excited the greatest
possible interest in the neighbourhood, which has unfor-
tunately been, within the last few years, the theatae of very
many atrocious crimes.

IRNH LAW COURTS.

• On the motion of Mr. GOULBURN, the li once rnoiredlf
into a Committee of the whole lloutz on the lrich Law Courts
Bill.

The Report was brought up, and ordered to be received to

SUPPLY.

The Report of the Committee of :supply was brought up by Mr.
Brogden, and read and agreed to.
PR03101.11 /N OF MASTERS IN N.lVr.
Sir ti. Ct sold, that in consequen— of what fell hat
night from the lion. Member for Aberdeen, re's' it e to the promo..
tion of Masters, he had obtained a correct eery of the Order IN
Council, which, he must say, was not in the possJ.sion of that
nourable Mnnher. The order, In fart, was dated in Aagest
1805, and allowed Masters the promotion to a Lieutenancy in
cases of distinguishing themselves and serving six years 'defeat
they could become Lieutenants. If an individual Master paued a
certain examination, it was allowed to be equivalent to service for
a certain *ember of years. Having said so much, he hoped the
HOMO would consider him to have fully redeemed biz pledge_
Mr. II U.HE said, that he had done all he could to obtain cots
rect information on this subject. He last year quoted Nen tits
same Order in Council as he did this year; it was not then gees..
boned ; and he Fart it to the /loose whether he was to blamer
for acting on the best information which was afforded
In tataeoce to what had fallen from the gallant Admiral last
night, who told hint that if he read further he would find the pm•
viso which was made for the advancement of merit, he begged sot
say, that after the inquiries which he had instituted, he could
discover no instance of any such proviso being acted upon. He
hoped, however, that the returns which he that night moved for,
would &hew that within the last twenty years one or mote than
one exception had been made in favour of maitorlousott ars.
The resolutions was then agreed to.
