DUTCH: AND FLANDERS MAIL.
Birusszt.ss, Ocr. B.—The tables giving the result
of our foreign trade during the first eight months of this
year, by comparing them with those of last year, show
that there is a very considerable decrease in the prin-
cipal articles of our imports and exports.
Of the 27 principal articles of importation there is a
decrease on 19, and an increase on 8 only.
The list of exports consists of 30 articles, of which 21
are below those of last year ; 9 only show an increase.
While 9 articles on the list of exportation amounted in
the first eight months of 1845 to llll. 37,539,608
This year they have increased to

15,903,378

The articles on which there is a diminu-
tion weighed in 1825 Kil. 1,081,542,163
Which in 1846 increased to

190,926,110

The deficiency in our exports is made up
by
The diminution is censiderable, especially in coals,
iron rails, and iron manufactures ; there is likewise a
sensible reduction in cotton manufactures, linen thread,
and linens.
The Association for Freedom of Commerce will meet
on Sunday next.
There is at Liege, as at Brussels, an association for
free trade, which was to meet yesterday. According to
the Liberal Lagoa', the following were the subjects of
discussion :—To express a 'vial that the legielation
would immediately proceed. 1. To the defloitive abro-
gation of the import duties on articles of food, which are
at present suspended by the law passed in July, 1345,
leaving to the executive power the faculty to restrict or
suppress exportation during the time that existing cir-
cumstances shall require it. 2. To the report of the
Post-office, by the adoption of a rate of one decime for
all single letters, whatever be the distance, their origin
and destination, and for the conveyance of articles of
silver at a rate of one-half per cent. 3. To the immediate
suppression of differential duties on the importation of
merchandise, brought by sea or by the inland naviga-
tion, whatever be their origin, and under whatever flag.
The same society mean to propose to the association im-
mediately to study the question of Flanders, and an in-
quiry into the best remedies for the increase of
pauperism.
BRUSSELS, OCT. 9.—The Government of Hesse
Darmstadt has brought into Hollind 120,000 bushels of
wheat, the first portion of which arrived at Mayence
some days ago.
A letter from Dusseldorf, of the 3d of October, says,
" Within these three days 133 vessels, laden with Rus-
sian wheat, bound for the Upper Rhine, from the Ne-
therlands, state that the crops of corn there have bet n
generally good, and that there is at present a stagnation
in the price of wheat."
The last accounts from the Ilavannah, dated Sept. 16,
received the day before yesterday, announce a rise of
one-half to a real on sugar since the letters of the 16th
of August
The freight is reduced to 41. 55., and up to this
date the stock is reduced to 80 or 100,000 chests.
A letter from Merau (Tyrol), dated Oct. 10, addressed
to the Augsburg Gazette, says, "Yesterday a courier ar-
rived here from Botzen, announcing the arrival of the
King of the Belgians on the morrow. But his Majesty
will pass only two days here, as his departure is fixed
for the 14th. The house which the King will occupy in
our little city adjoins that of Marshal Marmont, Duke of
Reguisa. It is said that the august traveller, on quitting
our city, will go to Como.
CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 23.—The latest intelligence
from Trebisond of the 16th of this month, states in direct
contradiction to the former accounts, that up to the end
of August the cholera had not yet neased in Teheran;
the number of persons who had fallen victims to it were
estimated at 6,000. The third son of Mehemit Shad
had died of the pestilence, and it appeared that the
cholera was spreading in the direction of the Caspian
Sea and the Russian provinces.
In Kars an insurrection has taken place in consequence
of the collecting of the taxes. Several fires have taken
place at Constantinople within the last few days.
Adrianople had again suffered from a vary extensive
fire, which destroyed three khans, several houses, and
five hundred merchants' stores.

ASTONISHING RECOVERY FROM DROWNING.—As a
coal miner, named Isaac Gregory, of Radstock, was
passing over the bridge near Radstock Mill, he per-
ceived something floating on the surface of the mill-
stream, and thought it was a dog, but on looking the
second time, he perceived it was a child, a boy about
nine years of age. He immediately leaped into the wa-
ter, which was about five feet deep, and succeeded in
bringing the child (to all appearance a corpse) out of
it, which he carried to a cottage about two hundred
yards distant. The neighbours soon asseniHed, and
unarimously concluded that the child was dead, as he
must have been at least twenty minutes in the
water. There was not the slightest evidence of life, the
heart had ceased its functions, and every pulse was
still. Mr. George Carter, one of the clerks at Rad-
stack coal works being there, requested a pair of bel
lows to be immediately procured, which was done; he
then slightly inflated the lungs with three slight blasts
of air from the" bellows into the mouth, and then put his
ear to the stomach and bowels of the child, when he
thought he heard something in there agitation. In a few
minutes he repeated the same, and in a few seconds he
perceived slight symptoms of animation; he then again
repeated the experiment, when the child caught the
nose of the bellows between his teeth so fast that it was
with difficulty withdrawn. He was then carried into a
cottage, laid on one side before the fire, his bowels well
rubbed, and in less than a quarter of au hour he jumped
upon his feet, and ran about the house, although appa-
rently in a state of insensibility. He was carried home,
put to bed, and di ank a small quantity of brandy; the
next morning he went to work as usual. The boy's
name is Brown, son of Charles 13rown, coal miner, Rad-
stock.—Beth Journal.
