DUTCH PAPERS.

TEM HAGUE, MAY 14.—CHANGE OF MINISTRY.—
At the opening of the sitting of the Second Chamber of
the States General, at which the Ministers of the Interior,
Justice, Marine, and of the Catholic religion were
present, the President communicated a Royal message
announcing that Count de Schimmelpenninck and Major-
General Napier had given in their resignation, the
former of his post of rresident of the Ministerial
Council, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Finance ad
inkrim, the latter of his post of Minister of War. His
Majesty has been pleased to accept their resignations on
the promise that the said gentlemen shall continue to
discharge the duties of their respective offices till their
successors shall be nominated.

After the Chamber had debated the two projects of
law, the Minister of Justice stated that when the Pre-
sident of the Ministerial Council declared that the fun-
damental law of the Netherlands should be formed after
the model of the British constitution, seeing divers
changes which would be necessary and requisite to adapt
it to the difference of custom prevalent in the two
countries, the Ministers at first sight imagined that this
declaration had reference only to the responsibility of
the Ministers and the relations of the Deputies of the
two Chambers. It subsequently appeared, as well from
the declarations of the President of the Ministerial
Council as from the reports of the majority of the
Council, that they did not coincide in the views of the
President. In consequence of this difference of opinion
the two Ministers tendered their resignation. The
Minister of Justice then developed at some length the
new programme which it is the intention of the Govern-
ment to adopt. The new programme developed by the
Minister was listened to with the liveliest interest, and
for the first time the testimony of the approbation of
the members was general.
M. Donker Curtius received the congratulations of a
great number of the members of the Chambers,
The projects of law adopted by the Chambers were
those relative to the herring fishery, and the granting
permission to the house of Ryman and Co. to take pus.
session of a depot of merchandize belonging to them in
the fortress of Zutphen.
Advices have been received by the Government from
the Dutch Ambassador at the Court of Denmark, dated
4th, 51h, and 6th, stating that fresh steps have been taken
by the Ministry of Copenhagen, and mat Dutch vessels
nave been seized by a Danish man-of-war, on sailing
from the Schleswig-Holstein canal. The canal is in an
actual state of blockade, and this was made known to
the public by the seizure of the vessels. The tenowing
is the list of vessels :—The Jacobs, Catharine, Hen-
,irika, with goods from London to Lubeck; the Edina,
with sugar, Irom London to Kenigsbergen; the Sophia,
with ballast, from Hamburgh to Zealand.
The note from the Ambassador states, that he has the
fullest confidence in the reasonableness of the proceed-
ings of the Danish Government, that every reparation
will be made, and that tree passes will be given to
Dutch steps entering a harbour which is in a state or
oleekerle, including even Copenhagen and Elsinore. The
Ambassador likewise gives notification of the blockade
of the Elbe, the mouth of the Eider, and the western
entrance into the Schleswig-Holstein canal remaining
open.
By a declaration of the Danish Minister, i% appears,
that the harbours of Pillau, Danzig, SwiLemunde,
Stralsund, Rostock, Wismar, Kiel, with the Scheswig ca-
nal, are in a state of blockade; the harbour of Stettin, is,
however, not included. Swinemunde, however, being
so, Stettin is, as it were, shut up within itself ; hence it
appears that the harbours in the above list may be re-
garded as not an effective blockade.—Netherla ndsche

jeweller to dismount a sword, of which the hilt is ber
with jewels that are said to be worth 300,000/ This
sword belonged to Napoleon, and the Duke found means
to save it when the Tuileries was seized by the Parisians.
