HAMBURGH and FLANDERS MAIL.
BRUSSELS, AUG. 13.—The Chamber of Representa-
tives agreed yesterday to the treaty between the Nether-
lands and Belgium, by a majority of 65 to 6. Six
members declined voting.
Within a short time wet-have regulated by treaties our
commercial relations with fotir important powers—the
Zollverein, France, the United Si ales, and the Netherlands.
Henceforth we shall enjoy in these principal markets
of the Continent, which are near to us, particular privi-
leges for some of our principal manufactures. Yester-
day a considerable majority in the Chamber sanctioned
the treaty concluded on the 29th of July with the
Netherlands ; in this majority were such as M. Delfosse,
M. Osy, Messrs. Ropier and Lebeau. We rejoice at
this. Certainly next to France if there is a people with
whom we ought to wish to live in harmony, and exten-
sive commercial intercourse, it is Holland. There was a
difficulty after the unfortunate difference which arose
between us at the beginning of this year ; it was, to
effect a renmeiliation in which neither of the two nations
should suffer, either in its dignity or interest, looking
over the list of men in our Chamber, who in subscribing
to the treaty have set aside their political opinions, and
consequently forgotten that this treaty would be a source
of moral strength to the Ministry. We may, therefore,
say boldly that the two Governments in signing the
treaty of the 29th of July, have listened to the voice of
reason and interest, which on both sides was equally
averse to the reciprocal hostilities of the tariff.
The King and Queen arrived yesterday evening(Tues-
day) at Ostend, from the Isle of Wight.
Atni. 14.—The Chamber of Representatives met yes.
terday at half-past two, and agreed to a project of loan
for a vote of credit of 3,712,000 francs to the Department
of Public Works, and to another of 160,000 francs to the
same department.
The Senate received from the Chamber of Represen-
tatives two messsages, relative, Ist, to the treaty with
Holland ; 2d, to the vote of credit, 3,711,000 francs for the
Department of Public Works.
AUGUST 15.—The Senate heard yesterday the report
to a second project of law sent up from the Chamber of
Representatives, and commenced the general debate on
the treaty with Holland. The discussion was fixed for
eight o'clock in the evening on which the senate sanc-
tioned the treaty with Holland, and the projects of law
for the votes of credit for the Department of Public
Works; after which the Minister of Finance read the
Royal ordinance closing the session.
The Chamber separated with cries of " Vive le Ro
The King and Queen have arrived at Lacken.

' pursue the enemy and cut off the retreat of Schamyl.
The latter marched through Lower Kabardia, and crossed
the Terek, between Jekaderinagrad and Prischipskaja,
and on reaching the steppes of Upper Kabardia, he
formed his army into two divisions, one of which, under
his own command, proceeded towards the north, me-
nacing Georgiefsk, whilst the other, headed by the Naib
Hadj-Muret, advanced towards the west, in the direction
of the territory of the Kabardia and Tartar tribes, in-
habiting the steppes to the north of the Elbrus. A small
portion of the Kabardians, frightened at the approach of
those savage hordes, which threatened them with de-
struction, joined the standard of Schamyl. Other tribes
iutrenched themselves in their aouls, or villages, and op-
posed an obstinate resistance ; but the main part of the
population abandoned the country and retired towards
the north, in the direction of Stavropol. Upwards of 60
aouls were taken, plundered, and burnt by the enemy.
The number of stanitzas, or Cossack villages, which fell
into the hands of Schamyl is not exactly known, but is
estimated at between 16 and 20. After ravaging the
country between Georgiefsk. Schamyl suddenly marched
to the east, re-crossed the Terek, between Mardok and
Naurskaja, and re-entered the defiles of the Upper
Tschetschina, without having experienced any severe
los4, from the inability of the Russian troops, in pursuit
of him on three different points, to come up with his
main force. There were some skirmishes between the
Cossacks and the cavalry of Hadj Muret, who had effected
a junction with Schamyl in Lower Kabardia, and formed
his rear-guard. The mountaineers, in one of these en-
counters. left 200 killed in the field, but upwards of
1,500 Kabardians followed Schamyl into the mountains,
and the booty captured by him in Kabardia is immense.

A SPANISH ROBBER.

(Extract from a letter dated Madrid, August 8.)
An act of singular ferocity took place a day or two
ago in the prison of Salamanca. A notorious robber and
murderer, of the name of Patino, the terror of the sure
rounding country for years, was lately captured and
tried by court-martial. He was at first sentenced to be
shot, but the military authorities thinking such a mode
of punishment too honourable for such a miscreant,
obtained its commutation to strangling by the garote.
On the morning of the 3d instant, the turnkey pro-
ceeded, as is usual, to inform the criminal that the
Judge of First Instance, accompanied by the escribano,
had arrived, to announce, in form, his sentence,
and to transfer him to the condemned chapel, pre-
paratory to his execution. He was found with one of
his legs released from the fetters, having skilfully em-
ployed a file for that purpose, which he had concealed
on his person. Though still bound to the iron bar
which traversed the dungeon, he flung himself on the
turnkey, seized the massive keys, struck him on the
head, and dashed him against the wall outside. He then
locked the door, and shut himself up in the cell. The
officers of the prison, the judge, and chaplain implored
him to cease such fruitless resistance, and to open the
door, or pass the keys through the grating. He refused,
and uttered against them the most horrible imprecations.
A blacksmith was called to undo the lock, but he did not
succeed, its massive strength resistingall his efforts. Haif-
a-dozen strong men then tried to break open the door
with crowbars and heavy p'eces of timber. They suc-
ceeded, and the door fell in fragments. The fury of the
criminal rose then to its height. He placed himself be-
hind a strong beam which went across the upper part of
the door on the inside, and, brandishing the formidable
key, actually broke the head of the first man who at-
tempted to effect an entrance. The wounded man was
dragged out by the legs by his comrades. The others
tried to enter in a body, but it was impossible; the door.,
way was too narrow. For more than a quarter of an
hour he kept them at bay, and answered to the entrea-
ties of the officers and the prayers of the priest with the
most awful blasphemies and the most disgusting ob-
scenities. He then flung the keys at their heads with
kis utmost force, and severely wounded two persons.
Seeing all entreaties useless, a party of soldiers was
called to the spot. The officers of the guard once more
summoned him to surrender, but he replied with the
grossest ribaldry and the most insulting gestures, and
howled defiance to the whole garrison. The soldiers
were ordered to load their muskets; while they were doing
so he wounded the officer with a piece of lime -stone. The
priest seeing that he was about to be shot down like a
wild beast in his den, entreated the men to fire low, so
as to disable, but not to kill him, in order that some
chance might yet remain of repentance. A shot was
fired, but it missed him. The ruffian fell back to a dark
corner of the dungeon, as far as his chain permitted,
and from thence flung stones and pieces of mor-
tar at his assaulters. Another shot was fired through
the grating, and broke his leg. The wound rendered
him savage beyond all description. He bellowed, and
howled, and foamed in rage; and still, dragging his
smashed and bleeding limb along, flung missiles at the
soldiers, who yet did not dare to venture into the dark-
ness of the dungeon. A third shot was fired, and his
shoulder was broken. The arm fell lifeless by his side,
and he lay on the ground. He called out that he sur-
rendered, but only because he could no longer resist.
They entered, and he was dragged along the floor,
bathed in his blood. As they were in the act orreplacing
the broken fetter, he collected his remaining strength,
and with his left hand struck the turnkeys with
the iron on the head, and laid him at his feet. Three or
four men threw themselves on him, and completely mas-
tered him. He was then removed to the condemned
chapel, after the sentence had been duly notified. He
was subsequently visited by the priest, who employed
eve ry effort, but in vain, to bring him to a sense cf his
condition. His exhortations and prayers were replied to
with the filthiest obscenity and the most horrid execra-
tions. To the last moment he continued the same ; and
even on the scaffold, seattd on the fatal chair, with the
cold instrument of death about to clasp his bare neck,
this monster in human form shouted to the horrified
crowd about him curses and imprecations on God and
man '

STATE OF TRADE.
MANCHESTER.-Our market has been quiet during
the past week, with the exception of goods suitable for
printing. Parties forcing sales of 40-inch gold end
72 reed shirtings are obliged to submit to very low
prices. Indeed, there is scarcely anything doing-in
this description of cloth. We anticipate a further de-
mand for printing cloth if we have fine weather for a
few weeks ; and the reduction in the American tariff for prints will also hare a tendency to improve them.
26-inch GO reed-printers, 31b. 12oz. to 41b., at 3s. 9d. to
4s. ; 26-inch 66 reed-printers, 41b. 40z,, at 4s. 4d. to
4s. 4id. ; 27-inch 66 reed-printers, 41b. Boz. to 41b. 120 z.,
at 4s. 6d. to 4s. 9d. ; 27 inch 72 reed-printers, 41b. 14oz.
to 51b., ss. 3d. to ss. 6d.; 36-inch 66 reed-printers, Sib.
to 51b. Soz ,at ss. lid. to ss. 41d. ; 36-inch 72 reed-
printers, Sib. 10oz. to 61b., at 6s. to 6s. 6d. ; 36-inch
shirtings in proportion ; 40-inch gold end shirtings,
60-reed, at 7s. to 7s. 9d. ; ditto, 66-reed, at Bs. 3d. to
9s. lid. ; ditto 72-reed, at 9s. to 9s. 34d. In yarn there
is very little doing, and prices of some counts of mule
twist have declined Is. Bd. to Is. 4d. during the week ;
for water twist there is not much alteration to notice.--
Manchester Advertiser, of Saturday.
MANCHESTER.--There has been a :steady demand for
sugar this week, and sales to a fair extent have been
made at full prices; namely, Barbadoes from 465. to 525.
and Bengal from 495. to 545. The market for silk con-
tinues in a depressed state, and the transactions this week
are unimportant. There has been less inquiry for cot-
ton, and although no alteration can be quoted in prices,
the previous value is not easily obtainable.-Manchester
Guardian of Saturday.
BRADFORD.-WOOI-Our market is well supplied with
kinds of combing wools, and the business doing is
barely an average, as the prices are too high to induce
the spinners to buy, except to supply their immediate
wants. Yarn-There is more doing in all kinds of yarns
and a disposition to buy for future delivery; but the
prices current are so very low that the spinners could
not realise prime cost prior to the advance which is now
being given on combing wages, and there is no disposi-
tion to sell, except at higher rates. Piece-The pros-
pects of an early reaped and abundant harvest are very
cheering, and hold out good hopes for a good home
trade for the autumn. The accounts from the west are
equally satisfactory; and the passing of the reduced ta-
riffand the Bonded Duties Bill are looked upon as
highly beneficial, so that we may expect to be busy
throughout the winter. Our market has been very ac-
tive, and on some kinds of goods an advance has been
given.

- ROCHDALE.—The flannel market still continues inac-
tive, and the demand limited. Wool has undergone little
variation, either in price or quantity sold.
NOTTINGHAM—The market has this week been very
quiet, especially in the plain department. In fancies
more has been doing, really good patterns finding a ready
sale both for home and foreign consumption.—Bradford
Observer.

PAISLEY.—An unprecedented stir exists here for the
autumn trade at present. There is a very brisk demand
for weavers, principally at tartan fabrics ; and warpers
and winders, in particular, have not been so much in re-
quest for a dozen years past. This work for winders is
a great relief to the town, and affords the means of sup-
port to many aged women who have long been in a very
destitute condition.—Glasgow Saturday Post.
HAWICK.—The trade of this place is uncommonly
brisk. This is evidenced by the quantities of goods that
are daily leaving our warehouses. We have heard that
one house cleared out about seven tons of hosiery last
week, and other firms are doing business on an equally
extensive scale. A portion of these goods will cross the
Atlantic, but the greater part are destined, we under-
stand, for the home market.--Kelso Chronicle.

THE MOORS.
, PEl...rerun Ann. 13.—8 y the break of day, yesterday,
sportsmen were in watchful readiness in the moors and
mountains all Britain over, to commence grouse shooting,
and ere the sun arose reports of Joe Mantons were heard in
rapid succession, indicative of tho slaughtering purposes of
the knights ofathe trigger. On nearly all the moors in the
north a most fatal disease exists amongst the grouse, scores
of which were found dead on the heaths, while others are
so sickly that they can scarcely fly further than a few
yards at a time. The others are pretty strong on the wing,
and it was with difficulty that they were come within range
of. However, with ardent perseverance, several gentlemen
enjoyed an excellent day's sport. The Mon. Col. Lowther,
M.P., on the Earl of Lonsdale's preserves, on Shap Fells,
Westmoreland, bagged thirty brace of line birds, and Henry
Lowther, Esq., of the Guards, his eldest son, brought down
upwards of twenty brace. Viscount Ranelagh, Mr. Milt's,
and another party who are on a visit at Lowther Castle, on
High Howe and other preserves, had most excellent sport,
but our correspondent had not ascertained the precise number
of birds that each gentleman killed. On Roderip Manor,
near Ashton Moor, IV. Parker, Esq., of Yanwath Hall, shot
twenty-four brace ; Timothy Featherstonhaugh, Esq., of the
College, Eirkoswald, twenty-three brace ; and Richard
Tinckler, Esq., of Eden Grove, bagged nineteen brace, but
the birds on the manor were only small.
No intelligence has reached us of the sport on the 12th,
except that Mr. Dougal bagged 1; brace on his moors of
Glenferness, on the forenoon of that day.—Elgin Courier.
Sir P. Murray Thriepland, Bart., bagged to his own gun,
on the 12th of August, on the Strathbraan shootings, 103}
brace of grouse and 8 hares.
THE MOORS.—The morning of the twelfth dawned as
auspiciously for the sportsman as could be desired. Since
the storms and floods of last week, the weather has been
tine, but comparatively cool, with westerly breezes; and
the slightest touch of frost made the scent lie strong. So
far as the accounts have reached us, the sport will be
about an average on the principle Highland moors ;
but, of course, we are unable to give the first day's
work. The mail, which passed Blair at mid-day,
and the Duke of Wellington which came down four hours
after both brought a number of boxes, the produce of
the morning's work, some of which were addressed to the
leading members of the nobility now in London. There are
few changes in the principal Perthshire moors this season.
There is a new party at Falar ; and Thomas Brown, Esq.,
and party, from Glasgow, have got Amulree, formerly Mr.
Fox Maule's ; and Charles Gray, Esq., and party, also from
Glasgow, the fine preserved moor of Logiealmond, belonging
to Castle Huntly ; John Ewing, Esq., at Bruar ; and Robert
Graham, Esq., Calvine. The other Athol and Rannoch
moors are tenanted as formerly.—Perth Courier, Thursday.
SHEFFIELD—THE MOORS.—WC are sorry to find that the
grouse on the moors was proved, by yesterday's sport, to be
very scarce. As usual, numbers of gentlemen were up and
stirring at an early hour, but the birds were wild and high
on the wing, and were with difficulty got at. The largest
bags we have been able to hear of was 12 brace, and our
neighbour, Mr. William Aldam, brought down 11 brace out
of 24 shots. The prices varied from 10s. to 12s. per brace,
at which price our neighbour Fox is said to have sold be-
tween 70 and 80 brace.—Iris.
(Front the Inverness
No shooting season could begin undermore favourable
auspices than that of 1846. The fogs which enveloped and
shut out the distant landscapes have been dispelled by the
thunder of last Saturday, and now the bracing atmosphere
invites the young sportsman, inclined for an early shot, to
roll himself in his plaid and listen for the first crow of the
old ,sock, as, on fluttering wings, they rouse the young
broods—many of them destined, ere evening, to fall, at the
sound of the gun, on their native heather. We have often
wondered, on looking at maps which give the lines of rail-
ways, that no enterprising publisher ever thought of a
sporting map, where, in a similar way, shootings might be
outlined and described—noting down deer corries—tho bold
peaks where ptarmigan are found—the heath-covered up-
lands, where dwell innumerable broods of grouse—and the
fantastic old birch clumps, sloping to mountain streamleta,
which are the choice habitations of black game. We present
lists of parties all intent on seeking, at least,
" The freshness of the mountain air,
Which bloated ease can never hope to share." •

LIVES OF THE QUEENS OF ENGLAND, VOL. IX.
By AGNES STRICKLAWD.—The career of Mary of Modena,
Consort of the ill-fated James the Second, was so eventful,
that this volume, which is dedicated to her life, will prove
one of the most interesting of Miss Stickland's very interest-
ing series. History tells us but little of this unfortunate,
but noble- minded lady, and the greater portion of the facts
now laid before the public have been sifted and selected from
the secret archives of France. One of the most interesting
extracts taken from this source is a part of a MS. diary, kept
by one of the nuns of Chaillot, of the sayings and doings of
the exiled Queen during her occasional retreat to that con-
vent, after the death of James the Second. This diary
throws great light upon the personal history of the royal ex-
iled family towards the latter part of their lives. To one of
her friends in the convent the Queen also addressed a vast
number of letters, from which we have copious extracts in
this volume. Miss Strickland, like a true woman, moat
heartily sympathises with the fallen Stuarts. She
sperm
have been a Jacobite a hundred years ago; now she o
with sympathy of the sorrows that and dedicates
aree
her book to the most illustrious of the
uous past,
