BRUSSELS, OCT. 22.

A letter from Frankfort (to be relied on) of the
18th states, that M. d'Arnim was to arrive there
that night from Berlin, and that in two days he
would set out again for Brussels, accompanied by
Count Dietrichstein, the Austrian Minister to this
Court. Their Excellencies may therefore be ex-
pected here to-morrow or the next day. Their
arrival will be apropos, for the King and Queen
certainly leave this city for France on Saturday
next. They will sleep that night at Peronne, and
reach Paris the next evening.
The news of the approach of the Prussian and
Austrian Ambassadors had due weight in the word-
ing of the King of Holland's address yesterday. I
have seen to-day, I believe, the only (certainly the
first) copy of it which reached this place. The
pigeons beat even railroads hollow. The disconso-
late cant of King William will be with you before
this letter. The important part in which he anti-
cipates " his expectations being deceived," is an
answer worth a volume to all the Orange journals
in existence.

I have nothing more to add to the matter of my
letter of this morning, except to report that the
Funds continue to rise. The Belgians left off to-day
at 934.
There is no news from Maestricht. The Dutch
Commissioner has forwarded the Belgian proposition
to the Hague, and waits for orders.
These Dutch officers are not allowed much dis-
cretion by the King, nor can he be said to possess
much in any case : least of all, in late instances, in
his frequent apostrophes and appeals to Providence,
in his speech to the States-General yesterday. They
remind one too forcibly of Count Felix de Merode's
bon mot, some time back, when a country gentleman,
proposing an address to King Leopold, put some
flourish about Providence into the very first phrase.
" Halle la !" said Count Felix, " there is none of
that left for us ; King William has worn it out
long ago." This tells badly in English, but it had
the real soul of wisdom (if not of wit) in it—truth.

DUTCH PAPERS.

SECOND CHAMBER of the STATES GENERAL,

THE HAGUE, OCT. 22.
Committees were appointed to examine the va-
lidity of elections of the newly-chosen members,
and having found them all correct, the Chamber
proceeded to name three candidates for the post of
President. The choice fell on Messrs. Sypkens,
Bylefeld, and Collot d'Escury. A deputation of
eight members was appointed to wait on the King
with the list of candidates, of whom his Majesty will
choose one, to fill the office of President for the pre-
sent session.

His Majesty, both on his way to open the ses-
sion and on his return, received the most unequivo-
cal proofs of respect from the crowd of inhabitants
of this town and of the neighbourhood, who saluted
him with loud acclamations.

It is said that his Excellency Baron Verstolk
Van Soelen has resumed the portefezallc of the
office of Foreign Affairs.
Baron Van Zuylen Van Nyeveldt having at the
beginning of this week given up the Department of
Foreign Affairs, which he held ad interim, to Baron
Verstolk Van Soelen, the official communication
which will shortly be made to the two Chambers
will come from the Minister himself.
Ihe Arnhetnz courant says—" It is affirmed that
the Government intends to pay in bonds, next half
year, that part of the actual debt at 2 per cent.,
which, according to the treaty proposed by Prussia,
and with some modifications accepted by our Go-
vernment, is to he paid for the Belgians in advance,
viz., 8,400,000 florins. This measure can be ap-
plied only to the 2} per cent. stock, and to no other,
because the other loans have been contracted since
the revolution, and consequently by Holland alone,
and the Syndicate must be liquidated. The latter
is, besides, quite an independent institution, and
fully able to pay its own debts at par; the last loan
made by the Government seems to have been parti-
cularly favourable to it, and the funds from the East
Indies come in regularly." (It is'well known that
the Syndicate at 31 per cent, served to pay the loan
contracted for the East.)
The above measure is supposed to be connected
with further retrenchments which will be intro-
duced in the army. By means of these retrench.
ments it is supposed that it will be possible, with a
small loan, to keep matters on the same footing as
hitherto.

HAARLEM, OCT. 21.—0 n Saturday Dutch Stock
rose considerably on 'Change at Amsterdam, and
the 21 per Cents. reached 49; and the Actual
Debt, 5 per Cent., 93. They afterwards declined
to 48i and 92i. Subsequently they rose, and are
in demand at 484 to 49, and 94 to 1, to which the
contents of his Majesty's speech may have con-
tributed.
