BRUSSELS, Nov. 24.—The Chamber of Repre-
sentatives was engaged to.day with the discussion of the
budget of affairs, the general debate was closed, and the
first chapter adopted.
In the general discussion Messrs. Ouf and Verlaegen
obtained the mission of the Prince de Chimey to Rome,
as Envoy Extraordinary pro tempore, considering that
under this title the mission might be as long as
the Prince might choose to make it. The Minister
for Foreign AtTaira stated that the mission of th.
Prince de Chimey to Italy, were rendered necessary by
the accession of his Holiness Pius IX., and by the pro- ,
ject of a treaty to be concluded between Belgium and
the Neapolitan Government. The Minister proved that
the retribution allowed to that envoy does not exceed
that generally granted to Er, voys Extraordinary, and
explained that the Prince de Chimey had been obliged
to go to Paris, in order to confer with the Serro Ca-
priole, the Neapolitan Ambassador.
A discussion arose on the refusal of the Government
to ratify an increase of the " Octroi" imposed on foreign
brandy by the municipal council of Brussels. The Min-
isters for Foreign Affairs and the Interior explained
that the increase of duties would be offensive to the
French Government, which had hitherto been very fa-
vourable to the representatives of Belgium, but which
will not hear of this increase, they added that' not only
this increase of duty was contrary to the good under-
standing between the two nations, but that it would be
impolitic at a moment when France is probably going to
maintain the ancient lines for cast iron.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 27.—The Chamber of Representa-
tives to-day resumed the discussion of the articles of the
budget for foreign affairs. In reply to some observations
of M.Ory, the Minister for Foreign Affair s,ieclared that
negotiations were on foot for the conclusion of treaties
between Belgium and Spain, and also between Belgium
and Brazil.

some modifications relative to steam-engines; this decree

VIENNA, Nov. 21.—1 n the last number of the Grenz
loten, we find the following article :—The accounts from
Galicia are extremely unsatisfactory. If anything can
save us from new disorders in the following winter, it
will be the scarcity of ready money and the scarcity of
provisions in Galicia. The distress and failure of crops,
which have afflicted that unhappy country for two years,
❑ow added the burden of the quartering the troops,
which will be rendered still more heavy by the addition
of three more regiments, which have orders to march to
Galicia. The military are quartered in the country in
small divisions, according to the size of the village. In
addition to this, the peasant; must be driven, by force,
into the fields, to cultivate them ; he performs his work
in a slovenly manner ; he rather ruins the land, than
cultivates the estate for the nobles, which, in his opinion
belongs to him.

LEEDS DISTRICT COURT OF BANK-
I?UPTCY, Nov. 21.
(Before Mr. Commissioner BURGE )
IN RE EARL IVIEXBOROLDUIL
On Thursday week, a fiat in bankruptcy came down to
this Court against John Savile, Earl Mexborough, of
Mvthley Park, and describing his Lordship as a share-
' broker, jobber, dealer and chapmau.
The solicitor to the fiat was Mr. John Smith, of Bir-
mingham, and the petitioning creditor a Mr. Joseph
Joel, of London, a Jew money-lender.
On Saturday, the case was first mentioned to his
Honour, on an application to open the fiat, when several
witnesses, chiefly from London (including the Honour-
able Frederick Savile), who had been sun-mot:Rd, were
in attendance.
Mr. Dyson, of Halifax, and Mr. Courtenay, of Leeds,
attended on behalf of Lord Mexborough.
One of the witnesses was to produce a deed by which
the solicitor to the fiat intended to prove an act of bank-
ruptcy, but being unable to prove the trading of the
alleged bankrupt, his Honour refused to order the pro-
duction of the deed until the preliminary question was
settled.lnamely, whether the party was a trader. It was
stated that Mr. T. M. Lee, of Leeds, solicitor, was in a
condition to prove the trading, but his attendance was
required in London under subpoena from the superior
courts, and he would not be able to return to Leeds be-
fore Saturday night.
Under the circumstances, Mr. SMITH applied for an
adjournment until Monday.
During the sitting of the Court the petitioning cre-
ditor proved his debt for 2501. on a bill drawn at four
months.
His HONOUR gave liberty to Mr. Courtenay to appear
for Lord Mexborough during the future proceedings re-
specting the fiat.

ROYAL ARTILLERY. —WOOLWICH, Nov. 29.
DEATH OF LIEUTENANT-COLONEL HORNSBY.—lntel-
ligence has been received at Woolwich of the death of
Lieutenant-Colonel John Romaine Hornsby, of the
Royal Artillery, who expired at St. Helena on the 10th
of October. The deceased officer was created Lieutenant-
Colonel by the late brevet of the 9th instant, and the in-
telligence of his death had consequently not reached
Woolwich at that time. Lieutenant-Colonel Charles
Blackley, of the Royal Horse Artillery, having been
ordered to Ireland to relive Colonel T. Dyneley in the
command of the Royal Hore Artillery at Portobello,
Dublin, has sent in his resignation, and received permis-
sion from the Master-General to retire on full pay, hav-
ing been in the service 43 years. In consequence of his
retirement the following officers will be promoted :
Captain and Brevet Major R. Clark to be Lieutenant-
Colonel ; Second Captain G. V. Cockburn to be Cap-
tain ; First Lieutenant C. W. Younghusband to be
Second Captatn ; and Second Lieutenant A. M. Calvert
to be First Lieutenant. The command of the Royal
Artillery at Portebello will devolve upon Lieutenant-
Colonel M. Louis, as the senior officer of the Royal
Horse Artillery. Lieutenant Colonel T. Gordon Hig-
gins will be appointed to succeed Lieutenant-Colonel
Blackley in the Royal Horse Artillery.
A DAY or HU3IILIATION.—Thursday is to be ob-
served throughout Scotland, by the various denomina-
tions of Presbyterian Evangelical Dissenters, as a day of
humiliation, on account of the afflictive visitation of Pro-

vidence in the potato failure.
The fugitive clerk, Cowap, who absconded from
Wingate Colliery with nearly 6001. belonging to his em-
ployers, Lord Howden and partners, and who was ap-
prehended at Ghent, is said to be again at liberty. The
whole of the money, with the exception of his " travel-
ling expenses," and the cost of his " gentlemanly" outfit
—his gold watch, ring, wig, imperial, and moustaches—
having been recovered, it has not been thought worth
while to bring him to this country for prosecution.—
Aewcastle Chronicle.
DEATH THROUGH ANXIETY.—On Saturday an in-
quest was held at tho Jolly Coopers' public-house, in
Clerkenwell-close, on view of the body of Mary Moore,
aged 65, whose death occurred under very melancholy
circumstances. It appeared that some months ago the
deceased had her pocket picked of 2201, and having rea-
son to suspect that the robbery was committed by two
maeinrst,hashtewegraevethetnhezpilnoytoed
custody by her,in
bduotingthseoymewerree-
pliberated at Clerkenwell Police-court for want of evi-
dence. Subsequently they brought an action against the
deceased for false imprisonment, which was to have been
tried on Thursday last ; and during that and several
previous days sbe expressed great anxiety as to the
result, expressing an opinion that she should have to go
to prison, and die there, for the damages and costs of
the suit. That fear operated so powerfully on her frame
that she gradually became more enfeebled, and in the
afternoon she sunk exhausted into the arms of Mrs.
Davis, a neighbour, who had known her for years, and
before medical advice could be procured she died, in the
presence of several members of her family. The jury
expressed themselves satisfied that the death had re-
sul:ed from over anxiety of mind, and returned a verdict
to that effect.

ROYAL COLLEGE OF SUEGEONS.—The Court of

Newell, Daniel Wilson, Matthew Ledger, George
Baddeley, James F. Jackson, Herman H. Tribe, Frede-

STOPPAGE OF FACTORIES AT PRESTON.—During
last week no less than thirteen cotton mills have been
closed at Preston, in consequence of water having been
let off from the canal, from which several mills are sup-
plied with water, to enable the Police Commissioners to
enlarge the culvert which lies under the canal, and
which forms part of thv common town sewer.—Manches-
