BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, Auo. 24.—We find by the English journals of
the 21st and 22d, received this morning, (which contain no
news of any importance) that M. Van de Weyer, our Minister
at London, had on the 20th an audience of leave of the King
of England. We suppose therefore, that we may expect
shortly to see M. Van de Weyer at Brussels. His return to
Belgium will coincide with that of M. de Tallcyrand to France.
This will give our politicians an opportunity to indulge .in
their conjectures.
It seems that the King and Queen will not leave Flanders
till about the Ist of September.

The vast and beautiful domain of the Duke of Roque-
laure, so well known unclerLouisX IV. situated in the environs
of Paris, has just been purchased by M. Lefebvre Meuret,
Senator of Belgium.
A decree of the 17th August creates a commission attached
to the department of the interior, to inquire what measures it
might be proper to adopt concerning the establishment of lines
of telegraphs by private persons, and to draw up, if it should
be judged expedient, a project of law on the subject. The
Commission is composed of Messrs. Secus,senior, and Engler,
Senators ; T. Meers and G. Legrelle, Deputies • Van Lae-
ken, Judge in the Court of Appeal of Brussels ; and Quetelet,
Director of the Observatory.

GERMAN PAPERS.

NAPLES, AUG. 7.—As an answer to the declarations of some
French Journalists, and to refute their unjust attacks on the
King of Naples, whose good intentions are overlooked, whose
actions are misrepresented, in compliance with the system
which is now unhappily become prevalent, and which endea-
vours to represent princes as the natural enemies of the
people, it would suffice to have been witness of the rapturous
and enthusiastic delight, not extorted, but coming freely from
the heart, with which the King, on his return from Sicily,
was hailed on his first appearance in the Theatre of St.
Charles. Those who are acquainted with the obstacles which
have to be contended with here, when it is attempted to make
even the most insignificant change in institutions consecrated
by time, easily conceive that it is impossible to effect, other-
wise than by degrees, the entire removal of deeply-rooted
abuses, the advance to an evident amelioration in all the
branches of the Administration, the diffusion of enlight-
ened ideas, and the education of a people who have
been, much neglected and ill-used for centuries. But
on ne veut pas laisser du temps au temps; but all is to be
turned upside down; a nation is required to think and feel
to-morrow differently from what it does to-day, because the
National or the Courrier Francais have so decreed, and those
who would proceed slowly but securely, who would establish
what is good on solid and durable foundations, arc stigmatised
as tyrannically suppressing liberal ideas or relapsing into bar-
barism. The struggle now going on in Spain, where the
blood of the citizens flows in torrents, is a new proof that it is
not so easy to overturn at once the current opinions and pre-
judices of a whole nation.

The King was accompanied on his return by the Queen,
Prince Charles, Prince Leopold, Viceroy of Sicily, and the
Prince and Princess of Salerno. Prince Campo Franco is ap-
pointed the deputy of Prince Leopold during his absence.
We had heard a great deal in Naples of riots in Palermo, but
all the accounts from that place agree that public tranquillity
has not been interrupted for a moment. The proposal to in-
troduce into Sicily the farm of salt and tobacco, the
stamp duties, and the conscription, have met with
much opposition even in the Cabinet; in particular, as it is as-
serted, the energetic language of Senhor Mastropaolo, Coun-
cillor of State, a Sicilian by birth, and formerly a Member of
the Palermitan Parliament, who advocated with earnestness
and dignity the rights and privileges of his countrymen, have
induced the Marchese de Pietra Catella, President of the
Council of State, to withdraw his projects, which had already
excited general discontent in Sicily.
The King, on the first day after his arrival from Palermo,
went, accompanied by his brother and his uncle, to Castela-
mare, to pay a visit to the King of Wurtemburg, who returned
it on the following day. The King of Wurtemburg intends to
remain at Castelamare till the 10th inst., then to pass eight
or ten days at Naples, and afterwards to return to his own do-
minions.

The reports of a considerable levy of troops in the kingdom
of Naples are wholly unfounded. The new Royal steam-
boat, the Neptune, has arrived here from Gravesend,
but has been sent to Marseilles to perform quarantine,
became she touched at Gibraltar, where the cholera prevails.
The festival of the Madonna di Piedi Grotta, on the Bth of
September, is to be celebrated this year with extraordinary
splendour. The new corps of the Guard of Honour (cavalry)
will appear on this occasion for the first time, fully equipped
and complete ; there will be also some picked companies of
the new National Guard. The eruptions of Vesuvius, which
had assumed an alarming appearance in the last half of July,
have since suddenly ceased ; but our naturalists are of opinion
that we may expect a still more violent eruption towards the
month of October.

FRANKFORT.—A gentleman at Wurzburg has had a livery
of good stuff made for his female servants : for working days,
it is grey ; for Sundays and holidays, green ; and they must
wearit as long as they are in his service. This is a good hint
for the wives of our citizens, who . can scarcely restrain the
love of finery and extravagance of their maid-servants.—Ba-
varian Village Gazette.
