DUTCH MAIL.

AMaTERDAM, SEPT. 17,—Private letters from the
coast of Guinea to the 9th of May say that complete
tranquillity prevails there ; that the raising of recruits,
or rather the redemption of negro slaves, to serve as
volunteers in Java, continue to answer the expectations
that were entertained.
His Majesty has been pleased to grant a pension of
600 florins per annum to Mrs. Dalrymple, widow of the
English Captain Dalrymple, at Madras, on the ground
that her husband lost his life in the zealous performance
of his duty as Master Attendant to his Majesty's fri-
gate Bellona, at that time under the command of Cap-
tain Arriens.

The repeated trials that have been made with com-
plete success with the steam-carriages on the iron rail-
roads between this city and Haarem, having now
sufficiently proved that the undertaking fully answers
the expectations that were entertained ; the regular
service for the accommodation of the public will com-
mence shortly, though the precise day is not fixed.
In consequence of the accounts from Paris brought
yesterday by the carrier pigeons, the Spanish Funds are
much in demand. Ardoin's had risen 3 per cent. on the
report that Don Carlos had taken refuge in the French
territory.
ROTTERDAM, SEPT. 16.—The officers and workmen
of the docks here, who armed themselves as volunteers
during the difference with Belgium, were formally and
honourably discharged from their military duties in the
name of his Majesty the King, by their Commander.
The Commander having thanked them for the zeal
and readiness which they had so laudably manifested in
the performance of their duties, and by which they had
qualified themselves in case of need to defend our naval
establishments against a hostile attack, the ceremony
concluded with repeated cries of Long live the
King."

Of all the advances which Spanish stock has for some
time made in a single day, that of to-day is indisputably
the most important. Immediately on the receipt of
higher quotations from Antwerp the minds of the spe-
culators were favourably disposed. But it was ob-
served that still higher quotations of the prices at Paris
yesterday had been brought by the pigeons, and scarcely
had some bargains been concluded before the opening
of the Exchatige at 27 4-16ths, when they rose without
any intervening price to 28i /, and remained fluctuating
between that price and 29. The Exchange opened at
this last price, which was maintained, though several
persons sold to realise their profits. The most remark-
able circumstance is that this great improvement in the
price took place without any extensive purchases.
Spanish Stock not bearing interest was likewise in de-
mand at considerably higher prices.
Next to the Spanish, Colombian and Greek Stock
especially attracted the attention of the speculators ;
the rise of the first was ascribed to the arrival of the
Colombian agent, Mosquera, in London ; that of Greek
Stock to sonic financial plans. The particular demand
for Portuguese Stock must likewise be mentioned ; the
Three per Cents. rose to day, without re-action, from
24 to 251. While all foreign stocks were thus in
favour, it is worthy of remark that our own stocks were
entirely neglected and very dull, which, however, was
not caused by any sales.
