BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, AUG. 13.—1 t seems that at Leige, as well as
Vervier, the people are resolved to let the King hear their
lamentations respecting the stagnation of the finest manu-
factories of the Province. May the head of the State
bring back from his privacy the conviction that everywhere
in the whola kingdom there is but one desire to curse a Mi-
nistry whose ignominy and obstinacy impede the develope-
ment of our manufacturing prosperity !
The Espoir says—" The distress which at this moment
affects the principal branches of our manufactures and
commerce in general, the complete stagnation of business,
the state of distress of our manufactory of arms, and of
our woollen cloth manufactories, call for the attention, and
merits the solicitude of Government. For weeks a kind of
apponic epidemic (epidemic apponique) prevails at Brus-
sels, a great number of persons experience a complete ex-
tinction of the voice."

The Minister of Public Works, now on a visit to Eng-
land, will, it is said, return to Brussels in ten or twelve
days.
During the late storm several buildings were struck and
injured by the lightning. Among others the church or
Nipperen, near Tempes, and the cathedral of St. Gudule,
at Novelle. At Ostend, the storm on the 10th was awful.
After a few claps of thunder, a deluge of water and of
hail-stones, larger than partridge-eggs, continued for three
quarters of an hour, and most of the streets were in a few
minutes flooded to the depth of a foot. A fishing-boat, of
Blankenbcrg, off the coast, was struck by lightning and
sunk. Two men on board perished.

Sir Coutts Trotter is out of danger.

THE LATE MR. LAWLESS.—The remains of
this very distinguished and much lamented patriot were
this day consigned to their last resting place, Moor-fields
Chapel. The funeral was strictly private. His son, Mr.
John Lawless, and his brother, were chief mourners. The
Rev. P. Dowling, 0.5. A., (Dublin) Messrs. Moran, Hick,
and several other admirers of the deceased, formed the me-
lancholy cortege.
Preparations upon an extensive scale are making for
the due observance of Camberwell Fair, which, according
to custom, will begin to-morrow. Plays, interludes, and
exhibitions of wonders are already advertised.
