FLANDERS AND DUTCH MAIL.
BRUSSELS, JUNE 24.-The cashier of an English ban-
ker in this city has just absconded, leaving a considerable
deficiency in his accounts.
M. Desmaisreres, Minister of Public Works, and
M. Masai, Director of the Iron Railroads are gone to
Courtrai ; they mean to proceed to Lille, in order to
visit the preliminary operations of the French railroads.

Bnussims, JUNE 25.—The French Government has
just demanded the extradition of one Lucombe and his
wife, condemned by the tribunal of Douai to hard labour
for life, for fraudulent bankruptcy. They have been
living, ever since 1832, at Liege. The Belgian Govern-
ment has caused them to be arrested, but will not decide
on the demand of the French Government till it has
consulted the tribunal of Liege.
THE HAGUE, JUNE 23.—We learn, by an account
from Aix-la-Chapelle, of the 19th, that his Majesty the
King arrived there that morning, before six o'clock, tra-
velling under the name of Count Heinrichau ; and after a
short stay, during which he received the civil and military
authorities, he proceeded to Treves, where his Majesty
would pass the night, and go on the 20th to Lunenburg.
His Majesty was expected again at Aix-la-Chapelle, on
his return to Maestricht.

ST+ PETERSBU RON', JUNE 15. The Grand Duke
Alexander and his Consort, have arrived at Peterhoff,
from MoScow in good health.
kBERLIN, JUNE 22.—Their Majesties the King and
Queen have returned from Magdeburg to Sans Souci.
FRANKFORT, 'TINE 18.—Baron Bulow, the Prussian
Representative in the Diet, is expected here shortly. It
is thought that the Diet will soon adjourn, and probably
have only one more sitting.
BERLIN, JUNE B.—The hope that has been some time
entertained that the rigorous measures adopted by Rus-
sia on its frontiers, to impede the intercourse between
the two countries, would be relaxed in favour of our pro-
vinces on the Baltic, have wholly vanished, and the fact
that Russia is opening new communications with the
south, by means of iron railroads and canals along its
western frontiers, leaves no doubt that the system of
exclusion adopted against its western neighbours will
continue for many years. But this indicates the true
remedy against the evil ; what our neighbours can do is.
quite possible for us, and we hear that investigations
are already commenced, whether our eastern provinces
may not be united more easily and advantageously with
the central points of commerce between the Oder and the
Elbe, by iron railroads and canals 4 If these changes are
effected to a considerble extent the boundary line of
Europe is given, which will separate the east from the
west more decidedly than natural frontiers. The east
with Sclavonian population, will defend itself more and
more from the intrusion of German elements, and with
its newly acquired arts turn to Asia and the south of
Europe, which are on the western side of tha boundary.

GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.--. 011 Wednes-
day next this thoroughfare to the Western Counties, is
to be opened throughout. A communication will thus be
opened from London to Bridgewater, a distance of 1511
miles. The Great Western traffic is looked upon by all
men, experienced in the subject, as likely to turn out as
one of tne most productive in the country. The thorough
traffic from' Bath is greater than from any town at the
same distance from London. We shall look with consi-
derable attention to the progress of this splendid work ;
although we already see that the operation of the par-
tial openings is such as almost to ensure a favourable re-
sult. For ease and rapidity of travelling this line, as
George Stephen Son said in his evidence before the
House of Commons, will be unequalled, and so it is gene-
rally expected that it will'be in profit.—Riilway
TORY NOBLEMEN AND TETE WESLEYAN
METHODISTS.—" Do the Wesleyan Methodists know of
any Tory nobleman giving money and la7nd for a chapel
or school? I do not." Thus said a very respectable
gentleman, who also gave me the following statement
" The present Earl Fitzwilliam and his late father have
given land, and in some instances money also, for the
erection of nine Wesleyan chapels and schools in the
neighbourhood of his own seat in Yorkshire, and also of
several in Northamptonshire. The Noble Earl and Lord
Milton, in one instance, if not more, have become co-
trustees with the Wesleyans to their chapels. Often,
after leaving Wentworth church, Earl Fitzwilliam calls
at one of the schools; and though a poor collier may be
giving out a hymn or praying, he devoutly joins in the
worship, and afterwards seats himself down to teach a
class of children." Surely the above is worthy the atten-
tion of the WeaJeyan electors, especially when contrasted
with the eondllef of 8 Tory landlord a short time ago,
who prohibited the Methotll4§ from preaching on his
z'stete.—A Wesleyan Elector,
MWRY•LANE THEATRE.—Mr. Ducrow's be-
nefit, on 114(41lay, was the most crowded house ever
known since thee ett-fig of the late Kean. The public
generously respon€lo Pg! m)peal made for a' great
artist and a generous ;pant Aloe tip!" 7004 was re-
ceived at the doors I the bin 0 Fare oared the greatest
variety.
Mr; Ducrow has, for the present, disbanded his
theatrical company, but the equestrian corps are about
to appear at Vauxhall for .a
few nights. The salaries,
we are happy to hear, have been paid in full, the public
subscriptions having been sufficiently libpritt to do so.
COUNTY OP CARLOW.—No contest in the
empire excites a deeper interest than the approaching
struggle in this county. The reports are most gratify-
ing, and leave fie doubt whatever of the triumph of the
Reformers. During Clio pyognt campaign, Mr. O'Con-
nell has ' proved that his powers P1p,§414 Rgainst
the Orange faction were never greater 1110 04? ?Mr
with ment, and that he never employed' them W better
will than against the Carlow Exterminators.—Dublin
Evening Pest,
SALUBRITY AND LoNGEWTY.—There are
now living in the parish of Bishop's Hull, near Taun-
ton, thirty persons, whose united ages amount to 2,478
years, giving an average of 82 years and upwards to each
Person.
