DUTCH MAIL.

THE HAGUE, APRIL 7.—A letter from Cologne of
the 27th March says, within these few days more
than six thousand emigrants have passed through
this city on their way to Bremen, to Havre de Grace,
and to Antwerp, where they will embark for Ame-
rica. Most of them appear to be country people in
good circumstances. In general we do not see this
year so many poor emigrants as of late years. The
town of Minden is at this moment crowded with emi-
gants, and resembles in some degree the camp of a
Nomade tribe; the streets are full of persons stationed
there with their baggage, waiting for the steamers
which are to convey them to the ports whence they
are to embark for the new world. The number of
Germans who emigrate this year is estimated at
120,000.

COLOGNE, APRIL 3.—(From the Rhenish Observer.)
—From a source upon which we can depend we are
enabled to state that the directors of the railway be-
tween Cologne and Minden have been applied to from
Bcrlin, by competent authority, to know at what time
the portion of the railway as far as Hanover can be
opened. According to the account from Dusseldorf,
in the preceding number of the Amersterdam Cou-
rant, this is to take place on the first of May next.
As her Majesty the Queen intended, for the recovery
of her health, to visit the countries on the Rhine, and
to make some stay at Enners, Buhl, and Stolzenfels.
This seems to be the occasion of various extraor-
dinary repairs at the latter place.
KONIGSBURGH, OR 1.; PPER SILESIA, MARCH 29.
Our town has suffered by a dreadful misfortune in
the difficult times in which we live. Early this
morning 113 houses and dependencies were reduced
to ashes, by which at least 260 persons have lost their
property, and are without shelter.
NUREMBURG, Aram I.—file Netherlands ship,
called the Amsterdam and Varna arrived in the
harbour of the canal, having now accompli,lied,
through the Louis Canal, the second direct voyag,
between the territories whose name it bears.

VIENNA, MARcil3o.—His lajesty the Emperor
has been graeion-ly pleased to distinguish the cele-
brated Jenny Lind, by conferring upon her the title
of Singer to the Imperial Court.

FRANKFORT, Arum 3.—We find by a letter from
Bryrsc Litewski, that on the night of the 111.11 Niarch
the bazaar in that town, a very large square building,
containing about 300 wooden stalls, was totally de-
stroyed 13-3, fire ; and several Jews, who exerted them-
selves to the utmost, perished in the flames. The
damage is estimated at half a million of silver rubles.

COPENHAGEN, MARCH 30.—The Danish journals
have spoken of a journey of the King to Stockholm;
we are able to affirm, on the best authority, that no
decision has yet been come to on this subject. His
Majesty will go to Jutland, and at the end of July
to Fula., whether a visit to Sleswig or Holstein will
take place depends chiefly it seems on the relation
with the nobility. Some conciliatory steps are said
to have been taken, and as it is here believed that the
Sleswig and Holstein nobles have recognised from
many circumstances in the late elections, &c., that in
their well-meant patriotic zeal they have, perhaps,
gone too far, it is hoped that this intimation may
have a favourable result, especially if both parties
give proof of goodwill.
BERLIN, MARCII 27.—We learn that the officers
of the Royal Treasury arb at present very busily en-
gaged in ascertaining the pecuniary situation of the
country. Large quantities of money are weighed,
and all operations actively pursued which are neces-
sary for such a purpose ; hence it is inferred that an
exact account will be given to the Diet of all the pos-
sible and existing resources of the State.—Hamburgh
Borsen Halle, April 3.
