bccu grackuily pleased to "re:ievc from the remainder of
his pimishment, was today discharged froin prison, in
iNbich he has hen confined for seven week. A:r. R.

The provincial estateA of tiolland in their assembly to-
day have rc-elected all their Deputies to the Seeou'il Choi-
of the States-General. who went out by rotation.
We understand that Ihe Estates of Holland deliberated
on a proposal to preFent an address to the King en the
subj et of the proposed disunion of the ployince of HO-
laud into two distinct pr‘vinets, of Ninth at.d South Hol.
land.

Tr, in HAGUE, JULY 11.—We find that the question was
really discussed in the assembly of the Estates of H„ 1.
land, whether any application should be made by
them to the King or the Second Chamber, respect-
ing the proposed division of the province. The
Mernhers of the Assembly who were chusezt
Deputies to the Extraordinary Assembly of the Second
Chamber—these declared that in case the proposal was
discussed, that they should not be free in the vote to bo
given by them on this question in the Second Chamber of
the States General, and in case they were not nllowtd
cvcry sitting of the Chamber. The majority of the As-
s:tmbly seem to agree with these gentlemen, and it was
accordingly resolved not to take any part in the matter.
ODESSA, JUNE. 18 —ln the month of May there were ex
ported from Odessa produce to the value of 603,705 ail--
%ter rubles. Tne imoorts from foreign countries amounted
to 713,555 silver rubles. From the I,tt of January to the
Ist June 281 ships have arrived, and 272 sailed. Our ex.
port trade has felt the effstets of the slowness of arrivals
from the interior, in coticequence of the failure of a great
toirt of the crops of winter corn. During the month of
May only 25.000 chetwerts of wheat have been brougitt
into the town, and not more than 65,000 or 70,000 cliet-
werts of wheat since the Ist of January, so that we hero
none on hand. The spring corn looks remarkably fine in
niotit of the Southern provinces.
Nfosc,lio JUNE 22.—We receive ...tie most favourable
accounts of the Spring corn, and. the rye gives reason to
hope an excellent harvest the Government of Leer
Noger.orod Josataff, and 'ironi several others we have !ikc.
wise good accounts of the stafe of the wheat in different
carts ; ooth resttreet to the buck wheat, nothing can }et be
said, that species of grain being usually roan later than
the other kinds of spring grain. The weather is extremely
favoor,ibli. to corn and to tilt herbs.
Sr. PETER:BUROII, JULY 2.—Up to the 29th ;lune.
512 ships had arrived ia the port of Cronstadt, and 167
had sailed.

An anecdote which we have heard, and heard
from authority, will serve as a good illustration of the distinc-
tion which existed between the principles and conduct of these
two statesmen. When Courting succeeded to the seals of the

Snereigns. An intimation was given that the same course
would be willingly pursued, and that this confidential corre-
spondence with foreign Courts would be continued. The
answer, given upon the instant, was such as became a RR.
tish Minister ;7" I am the servant of my Sovereign, it is
true ; but I am responsible also to Parliament. The re-
cords of my office afford the means through which that
responsibility can be enforced, and nay public conduct
can be quostioned. It is, therefore, necessary that all
