.USSELS, SEPT. 27.—The average price of wheat
last week was 24f. 57c., and that of rye 181..57c. per
hectolitre. In consequence wheat is free from import
duty, and the exportation is prohibited. Rye is liable
to an import duty of 21f. 50c., and to an export duty of
25c. per 1,000 kilogrammes.
Their Majesties, accompanied by Count D'Arschot
and General Nypels, drove out the evening before yes.
terday to see the illuminations in the parks, in the midst
of an immense crowd of people, who manifested their
joy by cries of " Five le Roi I Five la Reine !" Yes-
terday their Majesties visited the exhibition of paint-
ings and sculpture, and repeatedly expressed their satis-
faction with the beauty of many of the performances.
The inhabitants of Courtray are in raptures with the
prospect of the advantages which they expect to derive
from the iron railway. The Cliroz;icle of Ceurtrav
gives the following as the answer of the King to th 4
speech of the Burgomaster of that town :
" Nothing that can contribute to the happiness of
Belgium will be neglected under my reign. I have
constantly laboured to promote its prosperity, and I
shall not lose sight of either the interests of Flanders or
those of the town of Courtray.
" I thank the inhabitants for the affection which they
show me, and sincerely rejoice in the advantage which
the iron railway will procure them."
GALACZ, SEPT. 6.—Accounte from Odessa say
that great exertions are making both here and in the
harbour of Sebastopol. More than 18 ships of the lino
and frigates, with a suitable number of smaller vessels,
are assembled there, and great movements are said to
be observed among the troops in the southern govern-
ments. We are here in the most anxious expecta-
tion of the result of all the warlike measures.
Many persons affirm that Ibrahim Pacha has
now received orders from his father to advance,
in case it should be necessary for the sub-
sistence of the army, and that Ibrahim has without
delay executed this order, and is already within a
short distance of Koniah. Othoes believe that great
dissensions have occurred between the European pow-
ers, which give reason to apprehend a general war. Be
this as it may it is certain that almost the whole of the
Russian naval force that has hitherto been on the coast
of Circassia is recalled, and has already returned to
Sebastopol. Besides this all the other men of war are
getting ready with all expedition, so that they may be
prepared to take troops on board at the shortest notice.
TUIESTE, SEP. 12.—The Austrian Corvette Carolina
has left our port with orders to cruise in the Adriatic,
as far as the lonian Islands, and the coast of
Albania. The threatening state of Albania, and
in consequence, the insecurity of the coasts may
have given occasion to the order. The Austrian
brig, Orestes, has orders to reinforce the squadron of
Rear-Admiral Baron Bandeira, in the Levant, and the
frigate, which remains alone at anchor here to protect
the harbour of Trieste, is to have the same destination.
TURKISH FRONTIER, SEPT. 10.—Admiral Stopford'a
audience of the Sultan has increased the sensation
which was excited by his arrival in the Turkish capital.
Meantime steps have lately been taken by Russia
towards an approximation, it being asserted in accounts
from St. Petersburgh, that the mission of M. Brunovr
to London is intended to effect a conciliation of the dif-
ferent views of the two Powers respecting the affairs of
the East. Hafiz Pacha, who will not be tried before a
court martial and punished, as was expected, is chiefly
indebted for this to the zealous exertions of
Count Konigsmark, the Prussian Ambassador, who per-
ceived that the punishment would have been founded on
the statements of the Prussian officer, who had returned
from the army, which he feared would make an unfa-
vourable impression.
The reduction of the price of bread in the Turkish
capital has had a very good effect on the minds of the
pecple. Steps, too, are frequently taken which make the
friends of the old customs more satisfied with the Go-
vernment. Thus, for instance, the last changes in the
higher offices of state evidently shew a retrogade ten-
dency, as the number of the first dignitaries is thereby
increased.
AMSTERDAM, SEPT. 28.—The Burgomaster of this
city has received from their Royal Highnesses the Here-
ditary Prince and Princess of Orange, the sum of ,
2,000 florins for the relief of the poor ; and likewise a
sum of .500 from the Hereditary Prince, for the sufferers
by the late fire.
Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of
Orange, and the Hereditary Prince and Princess, yea.
terday paid a visit to the Royal Museum of pictures.
The performance in the Theatre yesterday evening, ex.
ceeded the expectations that had been formed of it. A
piece, composed for the occasion, was extremely vreh
received by the audience, and appeared to give great
satisfaction to their Royal Highnesses, in commemoration
of whose marriage it was composed. Their Royal.'
Highnesses were welcomed by the spectators with- the
most cordial greetings.
THE HAGUE, SEPT. 2.s.—Count SenfFt Pilsach, Aus-
trian Ambassador at the Court of the Netherlands, and
his Secretary, M. Von Leikam, arrived on the 20th at Coblentz on his way to Johanni,berg.
AI:STEAL-IAM, SEPT. 27.--The ball at, the Palace
yesterday evening was extremely brilliant.
The Handlesblad has a long article on the report
of an intended marriage of the King. It says, " We have
never felt our task more difficult than at the present
moment. We have been for some days past over-
whelmed with articles addressed to us, many of them from persons who enjoy with justice the esteem of their
countrymen, all relative to that subject on which we
are now going to write. Our readers will readily un-
derstand that we allude to the report spread in foreign ,
journals of his Majesty's intention to contract what is
called a left-handed marriage. We declared at the
outset, that we gave no credit to the report, but let us
not be misunderstood. We should not see any good
ground for surprise, still less discontent, if a Prince
who devotes his life to the interests of his country,
should wish to solace the few moments that he can
snatch from the cares of public business, by the society
of a virtuous consort, who is esteemed by all that know
her. But the reasons which make us 'doubt that the
King will execute such a plan, even supposing that lie
had entertained it, are founded on the fact that the
King is better acquainted than any other person with
the feelings of the nation. We cannot enter into all
the reasons which, according to the general opinion,
would make such a marriage
_highly inexpedient, but
we cannot conceal the fact that the bare report that the
King might resolve on such a step, has filled a great
part of his subjects with profound sorrow. We repeat
it, we will not examine the reasons alleged, many of
which appear to us to be exaggerated, some unjust,
nay, unfounded ; but the fact itself of the despondency
of the nation, is not the less certain, and the King can-
nor be ignorant of it." In fine, we believe, the report
to be unfounded.
The Dutch Funds to-day have remained firm at yes-
tesday's prices, but little was done in them.
Spanish Stock have followed the impulse of the Ant-
werp market—that is, the numerous small sales have
caused the prices to fall iths below those of yesterday.

The Journal du Clier of Bourges mentions that
Don Carlos has received the visit of the Prefect of the
Department, the Mayor of the place, Lieutenant-General
Voirol, and the Archbishop. Viscount Walsh and
several legitimatises had also paid their respects to the
Prince. No guard is stationed at the entrance of the
hotel. The rent paid is 2,500 f. per month, with the
stipulation that if the Prince leaves the hotel before
the end of the eight months, an indemnification of
3,000 f. shall be allowed to the proprietor.
ALEXANDRIA, SEPT. 7.—The Egyptian Go-
vernment has just remitted to Syria 2,500,000 francs
for the payment of the army ; but Mehemet
Ali was obliged to have recourse to all his friends
to raise the amount. Said Bev, the Viceroy's son,
is still in Syria. His mathematical tutor, M. Haissar,
who is an officer in the French Navy, and has had the
command of an Egyptian ship of war, is, according to
report, about to be appointed to the command of the
Egyptian fleet, which has become daily degenerated .•
since it ceased to have European officers. Another
letter states that Count Medem, the Russian Consul.
General in Egypt, has received instructions from his Go.
vernment to take the direction of the Prussian Consulate
at Alexandria, in the provisional absence of the Prussian
Consul, M. Roquerbe. At the recent falling of the
dyke of the Nile, at Cairo, the waters having rushed
into the Canal with unexpected force, thirty or faqir ;
persons who were sitting on the banks were carried '
away, and the greater number were drowned.
