THE HAGUE, OCT. 26.—SECOND CHAMBER OF THE
STATES GENERAL.—A paper was received from Hen-
drick Jacobs at Amsterdam, stating that he had disco-
vered the secret of directing the course of air-balloons ;
that the weather being favourable, it is possible to reach
India in a fortnight ; that he had offered to sell the se-
cret of the atmospheric citadelle (as ho calls it) to King
William 1., but without success ; that he now thought
that he had the choice of selling his invention in
France, but prefers offering it to this Assembly. The
President proposed that this paper, though it could not
he classed with ordinary petitions, should be referred to
the Committee of Petitions. This was agreed to.
TRIESTE, Oct. 18.—(From the Lloyd Austriaco.)—
The latest accounts from Syria, of the state of the coun-
try, are very favourable ; tranquillity is perfectly re-es-
tablished everywhere ; commerce becomes daily more ac-
tive, and many goods which used to be sent from Con-
stantinople to Trebisond, by caravans, now to ke up the
much shorter and most sate route, by way of Betrout.
It is hoped that that the regular steam' navigation from
Constantinople to Syria will soon be extended to Latakia.
This would greatly promote the conveyance of go oda and
passengers from Adana, Tarsus, Antioch, Aleppo, Diar-
bekir, and Mossul ; and besides the Persian caravans to
Aleppo and Constantinople would gain more than 200
miles.—liamburgh Borsenhallc, Oct. 23.
