DUTCH PAPERS.

LEY DEN, MAY 9.—On the 5,h inst. a human being inen-
a most deplorable condition was found near the Levd
dam, about a league and a half from this city,h and -roug_.t
to the Nosocomium of the academy. He appears to be
about 24 years old. His faculties seem to have remained
in a state of infancy, and be stammers only a few words.
It is thought that he has been kept constantly bound, as
his knees are drawn up to his breast, and he cannot make
use of his arms or legs. He was entirely covered with
filth. One of his feet is decayed to the ancle, and of the
other only some of the bcnes remain. The professors of
medicine do their utmost to preserve the life of this unfor-
tunate individual, whose fate puts us in mind of Caspar
Hauser, and whose health is in a very precarious state.
MIDDLEBURG, MAY 4.—Four Belgian soldiers of the
corps of Les Partisans de Flandr,:s hive lately arrived at
Flushing. These men, who are Belgians by birth, give a

lamentable description of the state of their army. Ex-
treme insubordination prevails throughout, so that captains
and subaltern officers insult each other in the grossest
manner, even in the presence of their soldiers. All is
French, and it is even forbidden to use the Flemish lan-
guage, though the greater part of the men composing the
corps do not understand a word of French.

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 15.—The question respect-
ing Adana is still, as it seems, uncertain. It might be
supposed that Ibrahim had desisted from this demand, as
Adana is not mentioned among the Pachalicks granted to
Mehemet Ali. The Viceroy demanded Adana on account
of the extensive forests of timber fit for ship-building, and
this seems to have given rise to some difference of opinion
in the French and English Legations. It seems hardly
compatible with the policy of England to assist in making
Egypt a considerable naval power. In general, people
here cannot conceive how the English Government can
remain absolutely passive in events which, in so many
respects, are of indisputable importance to the commer•
cial interests of Great Britain, and to its t-rritorial po--
sessions. The formation of a great Egyptian and Ara-
bian power, which commands the Red Sea, and will
hive by its navy great influence in the Mediterranean, is
a circumstance which in firmer times would certainly have
attracted the attention o; England. With the exception
of a couple of ships, the English marine has, in the course
of the last year, entirely disappeared from the Levant.
There is a report that a reinforcement is expected ; but if
it comes, it will be when the question is settled, and thus
the part of England will be in the back ground. Equally
difficult is it to account for there being no English Am-
bassador at Constantinople. Lord Ponsonby's arrival
was announced long ago, but it has not yet taken place,
and doubts begin to be entertained whether he will ever
arrive at all. Meantime, M. Mandeville's part is confined
to supporting the policy of France, a part which it is
difficult to account for, according to former notions.
Smyrna is indeed delivered from Emir Effendi, but its
commerce is in a state of stagnation ; it is surrounded by
Egyptian custom-houses, which hinder the arrival of goods
from the interior, and even that of the necessaries of life ;
the last post from Smyrna, instead of coming by land as
usual, was brought to the Dardanelles by an Austrian
man-of-war. There are vague reports of an insurrection
at Aleppo against the Egyptians.
