FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 10.—THE LATE MURDER AT ST.
GERY.—The magistrates appear to have at length
made some discoveries respecting the perpetra-
tion of the murder at M. Evenepoel's. Up to
a late hour yesterday night, great activity was
manifested in the chamber of the Judge of
Instruction. It is reported that a liberated gaily
slave, respecting whom some suspicions were enter-
tained, has been taken into custody, but as yet
nothing certain is known respecting the ground of
arrest, or the name or circumstances of the person
apprehended. We do not remember that any crime
ever created so great a sensation at Brussels as this
has done. Everybody seems ready to facilitate the
discovery of the offenders, and the inhabitants of
Molenbeck St. Jun have set on foot a subscription
for the discovery of the murderers.
BRUSSELS, SEPT. 12. The King' Attorney for
the circle of Brussels has given notice that a reward
of 3,000 f. will be paid to any one who will give to
the judicial authorities such information as will lead
to the discovery of the authors or accomplices of the
triple murder in the house of M. Evenepoel.
BRUSSELS, SEPT. 14.—The average price of corn,
during the week ending Sept. 11, was—wheat, 24f.
92c., rye, 14f. 93c., being a rise on wheat, if. 35c.,
rye, ]t. 76c.
HELLVOETSLUTS, SEPT. 12.—A very melancholy
accident took place here this morning. The letter
boat of the transport-ship Frederick Hendrick,
which was lying in the roads, was unfortu-
nately upset by the wind, in consequence
of which three persons lost their lives. Several young
sailors deserve the highest praise for the exertions
they made in saving the rest of the crew.

CRACOW.

On the order of the day. for the adjourned debate on
Cracow being read,
Sir JOHN WALSH rose and said in addressing the
House he would apply himself first to the particulars
of the question arising out of the motion of the Hon.
Member for Montrose, and inquire what was the practi-
cal and immediate question before the House. The ffrst
question for them to consider would be whether they had
any legal right to free themselves from the obligation
of that treaty to continue the payment to Russia—
whether it would be consistent with the faith of
treaties, or with their own character, to con-
tinue that payment. The second question was,
whether, the other being assumed, it would be wise,
whether it would be politic, whether it would be con-
sistent with their national status in the pre-
sent condition of Europe, to pursue such a course?
When he entered upon this question, he must
say that he felt considerable dissatisfaction at
the mode in which the lionourable Member
for Montrose had introduced his motion, not that he
had stated what was not literally true, but any person
who was not acquainted with the whole question, would
be led into a very erroneous conclusion.

A curious scene took place in the Chamber of
Deputies during the course of the debate on Satur-
day. The Minister of Finance presented a Bill for
legalising
the contract entered into between the Go-
vernment and Messrs. Hssoux and HUNDEL, for the
establishment of a steam-packet service between
Havre and New York. The Minister proceeded to
read the contract entered into between " His Excel-
lency the Minister of Finance and Messrs. HERoux
and HUNDEL." The word " Excellency " roused the
ire of the Republican party of the Chamber. Up
rose M. GLASS BIZOIN. " I have an observation of
some importance," said this Hon. Deputy, "to ad-
dress to the Chamber. I find in the preamble of the
agreement entered into with HEROUX and HUNDEL a
word that could only have crept in through inadver-
tence on the part of the Minister of Finance. In
this preamble I read these words : 'Between his Ex-
cellency the Minister of Finance.' Well! Since
1830 we have had no Excellencies."—(A laugh.)
Hereupon several voices exclaimed, " The title of
Monseigneur has alone been suppressed ;" whereupon
M. GLAIS BIZOIN rejoined, "There are only Minis_
ters.—
(Agitation.) I hope that no one here will
attempt to restore the word Excellency to the Par-

liamentary vocabulary." The Minister declared that
the word had been used by his predecessors, and that
he would continue its use ; whereupon M. LHER-
BETTE said, " I formally demand the omis,,ion of the
word, not because it is a word of insignificance in itself,
but because the use of such a word has a tendency to
revive the usages of a former regime. Recollect that
contemporaneously with the use of this expression
we find our Ambassadors making use of a new sort
of language. They no longer speak of the monarch,
but of their master. Considering him also as their
sole master, they invariably sink the word `national,'
and in all cases re-establish the word 'royal.' On
every occasion they -revive these ancient symbols."
This speech of M. LUERBETTE produced such
a scene of agitation that the debate was ulti-
mately adjourned. There cannot, however, be

GENERAL FAST DAY.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved that the Archdeacon
of Surrey, the Rev. Mr. Dombey, be requested to preach
before the House on the general fast day.
Mr. HUME said that they had a chaplain of their
own, and it would be rather casting a slight upon him
if they appointed another to discharge his duty.
Sir GEORGE GREY was informed that the state of
their own chaplain's health rendered it impossible for
him to fulfil the duty.
HOLYHEAD HARBOUR.

Lord SANDON would beg to ask what steps the
Government had taken with reference to Holyhead har-
bour, for the purpose of ascertaining its fitness to be a
harbour of refuge. It was a mat ter of public importance
that some inquiry should be made before there was an
expenditure of public money, which might turn out
wholly fruitless.
Mr. COWPER answered that an examination had
been made into the capabilities of the harbour by Capt.
Pechell, and steps would be taken in pursuance of the
results of that inquiry.
ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION.

Mr. E. DENISON postponed .his motion for a Select
Committee to inquire into English Ecclesiastical Corn-
missions till Thursday.
CORN FROM PORTUGAL.

Lord J. MANNERS asked the Noble Lord at the
head of the Government, whether it Was true that the
Government of Portugal had prohibited the exportation
of grain. '
Lord JOHN RUSSELL replied, that he believed that
sonic step of the kind referred to had been taken. -
TRADING IN SEDUCTION AND PAOSTITU-

were other documents, but that the Noble Lord would
find, by reference to the library of the House, that the
British Government, at the Congress of Vienna, were
parry to all protocols and treaties made at that Gaigress.

sary to prohibst any persons whatever from entering its
I precincts, of course, including the two Houses of Par-
liament, until the end of the Easter recess. He had,
however, made arrangements for the opportunity of
seeing the splendour of that place, for which the public
had paid so largely, at the end of the present session.
RECORD OFFICE.

Mr. MONCKTON MILN ES wished to ask the Right
Hon. the Secretary for the Home Department, whether
any measures had been taken for the erection of an office
for the reception of the records of England and Wales.
He had learned that the documents of other Muniments
of the country were in daily danger of destruction, and
the question he had to put was as to whether, according
to the promise held out last session, it was decided to
have a Record Office built, and as to whether the site
had been chosen ?

Sir GEORGE GREY was understood to say that the
Government were duly impressed with the necessity of
providing for the safe custody of the public records, but
they had not yet decided upon the site where the build-
ing was to be erected. The subject, however, was under
consideration.
GENERAL PUBLIC BILLS.

Mr. AGLIONBY wished to ask the Secretary of
State for the Home Department., when the Government
would propose to the House general Bills fGr the vtch-
ing, paving, and lighting, or other matters of regulation
and improvements of towns. He was desirous to know
whether any such measures were to be proposed, and
how soon they would be brought forward so as to
obviate the necessity of introducing a separate measure
to meet the requirements of each case.
Lord MORPETII stated in reply to the Hon. Mem-
ber, that on Thursday next several Bills for watching,
lighting, and paving, would be laid on the table.
WELLINGTON STATUE.

Lord JOHN MANNERS would like to know with
reference to the question lately put to the Noble Lord,
respecting the Wellington statue, whether it was the
intention of the Government to erect the statue in
Waterloo-place—whether the opinion of the Govern-
ment was adverse to that site or not ?
Lord MORPETH said, that the Sub-Committee had
now left the matter entirely at the discretion of the Go-
vernment.

We read in a letter from Bak of the 21:I:

" The Constituent Assembly has terminated its la-
bours. The last paragraphs of the new constitution were
discussed in the sittir.g of this day, and the measure
itself adopted by 90 votes to 2. The dissentient votes
were given by M. Lichtenhahn, the head of the Chan.
cellor's office of the canton, ,and M. Bourcard, president
of the Criminal Tribunal. The measure produced by
the committee has not undergone any very important
modifications, and there is cause for congratulation that
the matt, r has terminated so quietly. In a few days the
people will be called on to vote, and there can be no
doubt that the constitution will be accepted by the great
majority of the citizens."

A correspondent writes from Copenhagen to the
German journal of Frankfort, that the King of
DENMARK entertains the intention of granting to his
people constitutional institutions. The assemblies of
the States will be convoked separately for three days.
They will each have seven delegates, making in all
twenty-eight, wh) will meet at Copenhagen, and
discuss in concert the proposed constitution, and co:ne
to a mutual understanding upon the interests of the
kingdom and the duchies.

The Prussian Universal Gazette publishes a royal
decree, declaring that all the members of Communist
societies shall be prosecuted, according to the existing
laws against high treason, if found to propagate doc-
trines subversive of those laws.

The Official Gazette of Vienna publishes an impe-
rial ordonnance, granting the exclusive concession of
the railway between Vienna and Gloggnitz to a com-
pany for a term of fifty years. At the expiration of
that period, the line is to revert to the State without
its paying for it anything to the company.
Letters from Breslau of the 20th state that Aus-
trian Gallicia continues to be much agitated, in con-
sequence of the distressed condition of the labouring
classes. There are several bands moving about de-
manaing food, and in some cases they have committed
depredations, which rendered it necessary to call out
the armed force.

Intelligence from Lisbon to the 22d has been
received.

SALDANHA has bee❑ reduced to inactivity fur want
of money and recruits, neither of which he can
procure. The Junta have sent artillery from Oporto
to Viana, to reduce the Castle cf the latter place.
A LNIARGEM, a Junta guerilla chief, destroyed a
11liguelite guerilla, near Braga, on the 10th. On the
18th SALDANHA was at Larnego. It was expected
that British mediation would eventually be accepted
by both sides.

GONVILLE AND CAWS COLLEGE.

At a meeting of the Master and Fellows, on Satur-
day last, the following translations were made :—Corbet
Flue, M.A., to a Frankland Fellowsbip; W. B. Hopkins,
M.A., to a Fellowship on the Wortley Foundation.

PEDESTRIANISM.—HAINSWORTH AND MOUNTJOY.
—These men walked their 8-mile match on Thursday, at Bed-
dington-corner. The sum contended for was 10 soya. aside. The
veteran pedestrian, whose'performances in years gone by were
remarkable, had here the long odds of youth against him. He,
however, looked extremely well ; and, indeed, went so
strongly to work, that we were not surprised, when six miles
had been covered,in something like fifty-six minutes, to see
his opponent not only considerably in the rear, but with
little chance of fetching up his lee way, he being, though so
much younger, the more distressed man of mile,
en. Th
in e
contest, which was up and down a (short?) ded
favour of the veteran by a couple of hundred yards.
DRorrwicH.—THE SALT TRADE. --We are glad
to say that the salt trade of the borough is just now satis-
factory, and that the works generally are in full operation.
The recent partial success with the East India Company has
emboldened the Cheshire and Worcestershire salt owners to
persevere in their endeavours to procure toe removal of the
unrighteous thousand per cent. duty levied on all salt in our
Indian dominions; and that' these efforts may be crowned
with success, we should think, must be the desire of every
humane and considerate human being.— Worcester Herald.
KENDAL.—Within the last few days a letter has
been received by Mr. R. Wilson, from Mr. Warburton, the
Member for Kendal, announcing his intention to resign his
trust at the th,riolution of th preent Pnrlilment, ae.d retire
altogether from public life.—anchester paper. s
