THE NEW BELGIAN CABINET.

BRUSSELS, MARCH 31.—RECONSTITUTION OF TPIE
TRY. —A supplement to the Illoniteur contains several Royal
ordinances relative to the Ministry.
1. M. Van de Weyer, Minister Plenipotentiary at the
Court of London, having tendered his resignation of the
office of Minister of the Interior, his resignation is accepted.
2. M. Then' de Meylandt, member of the Chamber of
Representatives, is appointed Minister of Interior.
3. Seeing that the resignation tendered on the 2d of
March, 1846, by Messrs. Baron J. d'Anthan, A. Dechamps,
J. Melon, and C. D. Hoffschimdt of their respective office
of Minister of Justice, Finance, Foreign Affairs, and Public
Works, and by our ;Ministers of the State, Court de blue-
lenaere, and Baron d' Huart, of the functions, members of
our Council of Ministers.

Art. 2. The resignation tendered by Messrs. Baron, J.
d'Anthan, A. Dechamps, J. Melon, Count de Muelenaere, and
Baron d'Huart are not accepted.
Art. 4. Lieut. General Baron Prisse is appointed our
Minister of War.

5. M. G. F. de Baray, Secretary- General of the Depart-
ment of Public Works, is appointed our Minister of that De-
partment.

Thus, says the Courrier de Beige, a Catholic Ministry puts
an end to the crisis which has continued for these two months.
According to oar conviction, it is neither a happy result nor
a final result.

The average price of wheat in the week ending on March
28 was 23f. 74c., and that of rye 17f. 58c.
ANTWERP, APRIL I.—We have now a pure Catholic
Ministry, which, as the Independance observes this morning,
has the merit of putting au end to the system of mixed
Ministers, the name of M. de Theux, and this is its second
merit. The country now knows with whom it has to do.
This is a great advantage which it has gained. We prefer
M. de Theux a thousand times to Baron d'lluart, and even to
Count de Muelenacre. The situation is rendered more clear
by a Catholic Ministry, as it would have been by the Liberal
Ministry of M. Rogier, but this latter Ministry is, in our
opinion, only deferred during the existence of the uew Cabinet,
which will, doubtless, be very short. The party holding
Liberal opinions will become more compact, stronger, and will
tend to its organisation.

THE 11ULLAH TESTIMONIAL FUND.—A third choral
meeting in aid of this fund was held last night at Exeter Mall. The
attendance of visitors was extremely large ; and the music, divided
as before into sections, sacred and secular, was ably executed by the
pupils of Mr. Mullah's upper singing schools.
The Earl and Countess of Haddington have removed
from the Admiralty to their residence in Berkeley-square.
The Lord Chancellor and Lady Lyndhurst and the
lion. Misses Copley leave town to-morrow for Turville Park, Bucks,
for the Easter holidays. _
_ _

Lord and Lady Francis Ev,erton and family yes turdaf
left town for their seat, near Hatchferd, Surrey, during the recess.

Her Majesty the Queen and entice Albert., with other
members of the Royal Faintly, will honour the French Theatre with
their presence this evening, being the last performanoe to be giveo
before Easter.
THE LATE HON. W. N. RIDLEY COLBORNE,
The mortal remains of the Hon. Gentleman were interred on Mondai
last in a vault at the Cemetery, Kensal •green. The funeral N‘ as
strictly prtvate.
A PROLIFIC STOCK.—On the morning of Wednesday
last Catherine Barry, a young Irish woman, living in Jennings'
buildings, nigh-street, Kensington, was confined in the workhouse of
that parish, Gloucester-road, Kensington, and brought into the world
three children at a birth. The above is the third accouchement of
this prolific woman in that institution, having on the first occasion
had twins, the second three children, and on her admission the last
Dine she threatened Mr. Guazzaroni, the medical omcer of the work•
house, that she would that time have four. She was, however, die'
appointed, and one of the last three infanta died shortly after 0.4
birth. The other two, with the mother, are doing well.
DURHAM GREAT Hoasn FAlR.—This fair was cow'
menced on Monday, and continued for three days. It is celebrated
for its supply of first-rate horses. First-class horses, rising flie yearo
