TUB HAGUE, OCT. 3.—ln a short sitting of the
Second Chamber, held in double number on the Ist,
the committee of reporters read their general report

The Chamber decided on postponing the discussion

At the sitting of the Chamber on the 2d the order
of the day was the general discussion on the funda-
mental law.

The First Chamber of the States General is con-
voked for Monday, October 9.
The Staats Courant says :
" The Nieuwe Amsterdamsche Courant, in its
number of the 29th September, contains an article
from Pernambuco, under date of the 16th of August
last, stating that, on the Ist of January, 1849, the
differential duties will be established by the Brazilian
Government.

"As this intelligence is of such a nature as to
cause some inquietude in the commercial world, we
have authority to state, for the purpose of obviating
every apprehension in this respect, that in case the
differential duties shall be effectively established in
the Brazilian ports on the Ist of January next, and
the negotiations between the Netherlands and the
Brazils for the conclusion of the treaty of commerce
shall not attain their object as promptly as is antici-
pated, the Netherlands Government, as might have
been expected from its solicitude for the interest of
onr commerce, has taken the necessary measures for
the augmentation of the port dues, and the dues of
entry shall not be applicable to the Netherlands flag."
