BELGIUM.

The Belgian Senate has adopted by 30 votes to
nine the bill for preventing insults by the press on
foreign sovereigns.
The anniversary of the birthday of the King of
the Belgians, was celebrated at Brussels on Wed-
nesday evening and Thursday morning with great
enthusiasm. On Wednesday night there was a
grand performance at the Theatre Royal, at which
all the high civil and military functionaries were pre-
sent, and also the young Princes, with the grand offi-
cers of the royal household. After the first act of the
opera the curtain drew up for a cantata in honour of
the King. The Duke de Brabant and the Count de
Flandre rose at the cry of " Vive le Roi !" which
proceeded from every part of the theatre, and bowed
to the audience. The cry was then repeated with
great enthusiasm. On Thursday the bells of all
the churches rang merry peals, and most of the
houses were decorated with flags. At noon a Te
Dom was sung at the church of St. Michel et
Gudule ; the King, the Princes, and the Princess
Charlotte, with the corps diplomatique, the great
officers of the household, and the high civil and
military functionaries, were present. On the occa-
sion of this anniversary, the King issued decrees
appointing his son, the Duke de Brabant, Captain
of Infantry of the first-class ; and his second son,
the Count de Flandre, Captain-Commandant of
Cavalry. The King of the Belgians entered his
63d year on Thursday.
