DUTCH MAIL.

Brussels and I)utch Papers to the Mit instant arrived
yesterday. The following is an extract:—
Coxsrawriwort.e, llamas 96.
Counsellor Minsiacky haring signified to the Porte, and the Fo-
reign Legations here, that he should take upon him, on the 24th of
this month, the direction of the affairs of the Russian eoromeire,
which had hitherto been managed by the imperial Austrian Inter_
nuncio, the Commercial Chancery. which had been closest
for three year*, was opened on that day. The sight of the Russian
imperial Eagle, its a presage of the restoration of friendly relations
with the Court of St. Petersbutgh, was highly agreeable to the
public.
The circumstance which we mentioned in our preceding report,
as having occurred at the Arsenal of Aliasulonghi, is fully confintt.
ed ; but the scene terminated in a manner eery humiliating to the
authority of 3laumcordato. After the German officer was shot.
and all workmen in the Arsenal, among whop were anne pitiful
mechanics and mathematicians, had fled to Zante, it was resolved
to punish the Suliot who had committed the murder. Seven hun-
dred of his comrades immediately rose, and took him under their
protection. ftlaumcord•to was in the end obliged not only to give
up the intention of punishing the critninal, but even to appease the
iuliots by fair words, in order to prevent a dangerous insurrectioTho.
This affair so greatly affected Lord Byron, that he passed some
day, in violent convulsions, which excited fears for his life.
