DUTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.

THE 11Aoutt, OCT. 19.—1 n the sitting of the
Second Chamber ►o-day, there were 43 members
present. After examining the validity of the elec-
tions of the new members, the Chamber proceeded
to ballot for three candidates to be proposed to the
King for the office of President. The three mem-
bers so chosen were Messrs. Van Toulon, Sypkens,
and Clifford, the first of whom was subsequently ap-
proved by the King. The Chamber then adjourned
sine die. Of all the members for the southern pro-
vinces M. Soudan alone was present.
Accounts from all parts of the southern provinces
speak of the zeal with which, since the publication
of the royal proclamation, the inhabitants came for-
ward to offer their services as volunteers.

The latest accounts from Brunets represent the
situation of that city as very melancholy. The Go-
vernment exists merely in appearance; the mob
and the club are masters. De Potter and d'Hoog-
verst, who a few days ago were highly esteemed by
the people, seem to have lost much of their in-
thence. Of the lust we hear nothing; the other
has thought fit to take up his abode with the
Masan!, who is so often mentioned, where he thinks
himself the most safe.

The club exhibits the most extravagant scenes.
Very violent debiges, if they may be so called, often
occur. The whole is exactly like the clubs in the
' French revolution. All business in Brussels is at a
stand : the shops are open, but nothing is sold.
Only thelowest people are seen in the streets, and
these commit all sorts of excesses. The voluntary
gifts fur the national cause are the produce of extor-
tion from the more wealthy inhabitants both in the
city and the country. Meantime, the armed bandt,
which chiefly commit these excesses, grom more
and more numerous. They are estimated at nearly
30,000 men, consisting of all sorts of rogues, vaga-
bonds, and string. ra.
At Liege the state of things is equally melan-
choly.

OCT. 21.—A Congress is spoken of, which is to
meet in this town, when the affairs of the Nether-
lands will be discussed. It appears that the great
Powers begin to take into more serious consideration
the events which take place in this kingdom.

FLUSHING, OCT. 19.—Our fortress is declared in
a state of war, and nobody is allowed to enter it
without a pass issued by the police.
THE HAGUE, Ocr, 22.—The Second Chamber
met this morning to proceed, in the usual form,
to draw up an address in answer to the King's
speech.
Last night the Belgic officers, subalterns, and
privates of the Ist battalion of Yager!, its garrison
here, to the number of about 200, left this place for
Breda, where it is said they arc to be disarmed, and
cent to Belgium. It was late in the evening when
they received the necessary orders.

ROTTERDAM, OCT. 22.—From all quarters we
receive accounts of the proofs of attachment to the
Prince and the country, which are given by our
countrymen in these troublesome times. At Am-
sterdam a corps of 1,800 men but been formed,
who are ready to march at the first signal. Another
corns is forming for which there are already men
sufficient.

AXESTRIMANI. OCT. 22.—Actuni debt, 2;li per cent.,
40 to 404; deferred ditto, to 15-16ths ; Anion S)ndie,

to 53. Exchange on London, one month, 11 75 ; two

HANOVER, OCT. 17.—0 n account of the disturb-
ances in some neighbouring States, and to be able
to repulse with energy any attempt of the insur-
gents to enter this kingdom, our Government has
resolved to call into active service a corps of some-
thing more than 2,000 men, and to station it about
Gottingen, towards the Hessian frontier.

BRUNSIVICK. OCT. 18.—Colonel Von Buttlar
has returned from London, whither he was sent on
a special mission. We hear that he had several
audiences of Duke Chalks, but failed in convincing
him of the necessity of abdicating in favour of his
brother Duke William : he received for answer, that
" the Duke was fully aware of the causes of the
riots, and ascribed the burning of the palace entirely
to the licentious populace : that he had, however,
forgiven every thing, and would soon return to his
dominions, where he desired that the Castle of
Blankenburg might be got ready for him." It is
reported that Duke William, on learning this answer,
at first thought of leaving us again, but was per-
suaded to prolong his stay by M. Lobbecke, com-
mander cf the Burgher Guard, who said that he
could not answer for the maintenance of public
tranquillity if the Duke left us.

Our. 20.—The Ministry is now mild), orga-
nized, and not one of the former members remains
in it. The change 11:10 given great satisfaction.
Duke William is much beloved, and there is now
certuinly no country in Germany where there is less
reason to fear disturbances than here.
