DUTCH and FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, AUG. 17.—The Moniteur of to-day con-
tains a report addressed to the King by the Minister of
the Interior, on the general regulation of the schools of
primary instruction, a royal decree approving the regu-
lations, a letter to the Minister of the Interior by the
Bishops of Belgium, who, at the desire of the Minister,
and in concert wtth the delegates, regulate religious in-
struction, and a letter on the subject from the Bishops
to the pastors of their dioceses. The Moniteur publishes
the royal ordinance of the 14th of August, for closing
the Legislative session of 1845-46.
The Minister of the Interior has appointed a commis-
sion to examine a preliminary project of law, containing
some modification in the code of criminal proceedings.
The commission was installed on the 14th of this month
in the Hotel of the Minister of Justice.

The Journal of Liege, of v the 16th, says :—" Yes-
erday, at one o'clock in the afternoon, a lieutenant of the
. .

11th regiment of the line, dressed in plain clothes, was
found in a hop-garden, lying on the ground, with a dan-
gerous wound in his left side. He was immediately
removed to a neighbouring house in a very precarious
state. We can only at present conjecture the cause of
this deplorable event. No weapon was found near the
lieutenant, the wound had ceased' to bleed, and, in the
opinion of a physician, must have been made some
hours before.—Brussels Paper, Aug. 18.
THE HAGUE, AUG. 16.—His Majesty the King re-
turned to the Hague yesterday afternoon, from his
journey to Luxemburg. Her Royal Highness the
Princess Albert of Prussia arrived here yesterday.
THE HAGUE, AUG. 17.—1 n all parts of the kingdom
through which his Majesty has lately passed, the inha-
bitants have every where received his Majesty with the
most cordial marks of veneration and affection, and the
sympathy of the nation for its sovereign was never before
manifested in so enthusiastic and spontaneous a manner.
All the accounts which we daily receive afford us proof
of this. The noble heart of the King must have been
deeply affected by these manifestations of the love and
respect of the country, which were perhaps greater
than at any other period of his reign. We learn that
her Majesty the Queen Dowager of Great Britain, will
arrive here in a few days, and will reside in the Palace
in the Noordereinde. She will be accompanied by a
Princess of Prussia, for whom apartments are prepared
in the hotel of Bell Vue.

A letter from Gibraltar informs us that the Dutch
squadron, under the command of his Royal Highness
Prince Henry, had arrived there on the 30th of July.
THE HAGUE, AUG. 18.—Her Majesty the Queen has
arrived here from Soetsdyk.
The official journal, No. 40, publishes a resolution of
the Minister of Finance of the 16th of August, calling
in the current pieces of one florin, 51 cents, for
which other coin or notes will be given in exchange for
them, up to the 6th day of September next, after which
they will no longer be current ; they will neither be re-
ceived in payment in the public offices, nor will any
perFon be bound to receive them in payment.
The Queen Dowager of England is expected here
about the 24th of this month. Baron Von Heckerin,
our Ambassador, at the Court of Vienna, arrived here
yesterday evening (the 17th.)
80,009 ounces of silver coin we re exported last week
into Rotterdam from London.

We have received from Cologne, some authentic parti-
culars of the deliberation of the deputies of the Zollverein
assembled in their Congress at Berlin. The old dispute
whether duties should be imposed to protect the national
manufacturers, or for the purpose of revenue, has been
renewed with the same vehemence as at Carlsruhe.
Only as some of the deputies have been succeeded by
others, there has not been quite so much heat in the
discussions. Bavaria, which at first showed some hesi-
tation, has openly joined Wurtemburg and the Grand
Duchy of Baden. Saxony will make no concession on
cotton yarn. Prussia is inclined to fix the duty on
twist at one dollar, and on thread by machinery at two
dollars; but the southern states insist on a duty of four
dollars on all kinds of thread. It is therefore probable
that the conference will break up without coming to
any resolution, and that all will remain on its present
footing.

trial at the Chelmsford sessions. The sufferers, with the exception
of Porter Prentice, are reported to be going on favourably on the
whole. Aug. 12. Mr. Hind has since died ;an inquest was held, and
the jury returned a verdict of Manslaughter' against William Clare,
