RUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS.

MUSSELS, APRIL 21.—The Echo du Luxembourg has the
following paragraph :—" When We announced that the Bel-
gian tricoloured flag had been hoisted at Diekirch, we were
not mistaken. The Journal of Diekirch tonfirms this news.
We believe we may say that the Belgian colours will soon be
displayed on the steeples of the ehurchcs of all the communes
of the ceded portion of the Grand Duchy. This:will be the
first manifestation of the will of the country, which will soon
express itself in a more energetic manner.
" We invite all the inhabitants of Luxembourg, devoted to
the cause of the province, to continue to concert with each
other the measures best calculated to save it from the danger
with which it is menaced.
" We believe we may affirm, that eminent political charac-
ters, in the other provinces, will use their influence to second
the extraordinary measures which may be taken in Luxem-
bourg, for the purpose of definitively withd-awing it from the
f l Holland. The patriots of Luxembourg will, doubt-
ess, act in concert with them."
VIENNA, APRIL 10.—The subscription for shares in Baron
Sena's iron railroad from Vienna to Raab, was opened in the
Palace of Schwarzeur. A crwd f about 10000 peole
tad assembled at th of ogt
of the hillo on which, the Palapce
stands, and which has in its front a high wall; these people
bad already taken this post the day before, in order to force
their way through the only entrance, and so obtain for their
clients two shares, for nobody was allowed to have more. Five
companies of foot and two squadrons of horse were stationed
at different places t 3 maintain order and tranquillity; but
notwithstanding their presence, the most shocking excesses
took place, in which many persons were mortally wounded,
and some killed on the spot.
COLOGNE, 17th APRIL.-111. Von Bodelswergh, Chief
President of the Rhenish provinces, has published an address,
asking voluntary contributions to relieve the sufferers by the
!overflowing of the Rhine. At the end of the address he says,
he has received through the Prussian Embassy in London,
2004 sterling from It person of high station, who does not
wish to be named, to which the Ambassador has added from
himself 100 dollars.—Francfort Papers, 19th
1. /34LIN, APRIL 11.—The Bulletin of the Laws to be pub.
foundedo-morrow will contain the new Royal ordinance,
d_istrib on the occurrences of the day, relative to the illegal
ution of
Pa__, papers proceeding from persons presumed to be
P4l agents. As a Government must certainly be fallen
very low if it would allow foreign Agens provocateurs to ex-
cite fermentation in the country at their pleasure, nobody will
b surs2,rised if our police should exercise the greatest vi-
gll4':,ee to see that the King's command is not disregarded,
end that the authority of the country be respected by tho
neighbouring frontier districts. Should the Belgian Govern-
ment, which, as it is notorious, has little power in its own do-
m.3 in ions m such matters, not be able to give any guarantee,
it
confidently expected that all intercourse with Belgium will
he broken off, and a military cordon stationed along the fron-
tier.. It still Seems very doubtful whether a new envoy will
be sent to Rome instead of Dr. Bunsen, who is going, in the
Erst instance, to England ; or whether the whole of the lega-
tiop may not be withdrawn.
The Auysburgh Gazette has the following, under date of
Berlin, April 7 General excitement exists, not only in
the Grand Duchy of Posen, but also in Western Prussia,
the Ermeland, the Circles of Braunsberg, Heilsberg, Bis-
ch°frstein, and Altenstein, and even in Eastern Prussia, where
Catholics are numerous. 2 The country people of the Polish
districts consider the introduction of the use of the German
lan guageinto their schools as a direct attack upon the Catho-
lie religion, and the greater part of the teachers appointed to
them being zealous Protestants, give by their imprudent zeal
some grounds for these outcries of the peasantry. The people
thalso lament the suppression of the convents, where formerly
ey were sure of finding relief in times of need. They are
Convinced of an existing intention to destroy their religion
and national customs, that they proclaim their fears aloud;
and at the same time the nobles complain that the Government
has
a manifest design of destroying the ties which attach the
peasants to their domains."

Dover, deposited her bonnet and shawl on Folly Head, near

made every effort, by manning their boats quickly, to save
