FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, APRIL 14.—The distribution of the in-
flammatory pamphlets of which we have spoken, shows
that many agents were employed, and much money
spent. This distribution was not confined to Ghent and
Brussels, but was made at the same time among the
workmen employed on the railway from Liege to Namur.
This we know for certain. We are assured besides that
copies of the same pamphlet have been seen at Ande-
naerde.

His Majesty's Attorney-General went to Ghent on
the 12th, in order to cause several persons to be ar-
rested.

M. Parys, printer at Brussels, has been set at liberty,
because he at once delivered up from whom he received
the pamphlet, which he printed, and by whom he was
paid for so doing. In consequence of the declaration of
M. Parys, M. Pellerin, the shoemaker, has been arrested.
We have received the following particulars from
Ghent, which may be considered as authentic :
" The author of the pamphlet is a young man, twenty-
six sears of age, named Labiaux, a merehant's traveller,
who lives at Molenbuk-Saint-Jeon. He went to dis-
tribute the pamphlet at Ostend, Bruges, and Ghent,
where he was arrested. lie had employed the printer
Verblyir, who has been arrested at the same time as
himself.

" Four other persons of Ghent, to whom Labiaux had
given quantities of his pamphlets to be distributed among
the people, are also arrested. These six persons, es-
corted by some gens d'armes, were immediately conveyed
from Ghent to Brussels by a special train. The same
train brought back the Attorney-General and the Ver-
bike Commissary of Police at Ghent."—Moniteur Beige,
April 14.

BRUSSELS, APRIL 14.—L'Argane des Flanders con-
firms the information which has been transmitted to us
respecting the arrests which have taken place at Ghent
on account of the pamphlet.
" Our working classes would certainly not have suf-
fered themselves to be taken in the snare which misera-
ble agitators laid for them. At the head of these agita-
tors is a person whom the Court of Assize of Eastern
Flanders has been for some time in search of,
and who has hitherto escaped by flight the search that
was made for him. This is Labiaux, a merchant's
clerk, who was accused before that Court as accomplice
in the fraudulent bankruptcy, imputed to M. Stalins-
Vermeulin, of Renaix. lie was arrested yesterday in
our city. It was soon afterwards ascertained that he
was the author of the pamphlet in question ; his own
confession has confirmed the suspicions that were enter-
tained of him.

GHENT, APRIL 12.—The Messager de Ghent says.—
" The appeal to the people which was distributed in im-
mense numhers in our city on Friday evening, invited
the workmen to a general meeting a Sa Plan de Von-
dredi, on Easter Monday, at 10 o'clock in the morning.
At the hour when we are going to press this place is
crowded with curious spectators. All is quiet and it 0
hoped that the day will pass over without any blameable
excesses, the only result of which would be fatal colli-
sions, which our population, always so calm, have the
greatest interest to avoid."

- We find the following passage in the Journal des
Fla ndres
" At the time of our going to press some suspicious-
looking persons are beginning to take up the pavements
in the Place du Vendredi. We hope that the authorities
will promptly interfere to do justice to these wretched
disturbers of public tranquillity."
The King arrived from his seat at Ardennes, on
Saturday afternoon, at the Palace of Laeken.
