DUTCH AND GERMAN MAIL.

THE HAGUE, Aran. 9.—lt is said that the personal
tax, as it is called, will be levied for the year 1841,
1842, on the same footing as for 1840, 1841 ; that is,
according to the existing laws ; and consequently that
the project of law lately brought before • the Second
Chamber will not be carried into effect till the next
financial year.

THE HAGUE, APRIL 12.—The report given by some
papers that the Crown was transferred to the present
King, on the condition that the concordat of 1837
should be carried Into effect, is without foundation.

FRANKFORT. APRIL 6.—lt may now be pretty con-
fidently affirmed that her Majesty the Empress of Russia
will embark at Kronstadt for Lubeck at the beginning
of June, and probably accompanied by her Imperial
Highness the Grand Duchess Alexandria. They will
go to Emms, the waters of which have had so fc'our-
able an effect on her Majcsty's health.
BERLIN, APRIL B.—The opinion ofour• revered King
respecting the commercial treaty with Holland, has led
the Customs' Union to come to a favourable decision
list week, to give notice on the Ist July of the expira-
tion of the Convention, so that it will expire on the Ist
Janeary 1842. Thus the German merchants are to

tiered from another cause of' alarm.
FRANKFORT, APRIL S.—Vehement complaints are
made of the t3tade duties. It seems that the hope of
seeing the Hanoverian flag treated, in Belgiun,?, on a par
with that of the most fasoured nation, on a promise of
reciprocity on the part of Hanover, is not very great,
because the opinion gains ground in Brussels that the
Hanoverian declarations of reciprocity are illusory, be-
cause no mention whatever is wade of the Stade or
Braunshausen duties.
HAMBURG'', APRIL 9.—We have some account from
Stallung, that on Saturday, 31 April, about half-past
three in the afternoon, an uncommonly smart shock of
an earthquake was felt in almost all Jutland. The
houses trembled, and the furniture was thrown down in
some places, especially Thisted and Logitov ; walls were
cracked, and chimneys were thrown doWn.
TaiEsTE, APRIL 2.—The letters from Alexandria
of the 17th ult., and from Constantinople of the 21st
ult. received to-day, bring nothing decisk e respecting
the E4yptian question, and they a I express a hope that
in spite of the councils of the British Ambassador tie
Representatives of the other great Powers at Coast in-
tinople will induce the Porte to modify the hatti..
seherif.
The troubles in Sautes and Candia appear not to
have been so serious as they were represented. It is
hoped that a few Turkish ships of was, which arrived
at Tsehesme on the 15th of March, to take troops and
convey them to Samos, will suffice to restore order in
that island. We have letters from Candia of the sth
and the 22d. One of the first date says—" About a
hundred individuals arrived from the Morea in our
island, and endeavoured to excite the inhabitants against
the Turkish Government ; they met with most encourage..
client from some hot-headed Greeks who joined them.
Three English ships of war sufficed to keep the rebels
in awe, and as the Consular authorities did their at.
most to quiet the FeopUs minds, we hope that all will
be put an end to without bloodshcd." A second letter
