DUTCH PAPERS.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 2.—His Majesty the King arrived
to-day, at noon, from Loo.
AMSTERDAM, OCT. I.—The Breda Courier of this day
contains the following article :
According to reports that are in circulation, the long-
expected organization of the army will not be carried into
effect till after the adoption of the new organization of the
Schuttery, which will be laid before the Chambers in the
next Session ; the Staffs of the Schuttery will undergo an
entire change, for the promotion of the service which may
one day be required of them.
The state in which Europe now is, the continual increas-
ing diffigulties, and the more and more manifest deviations
from the true principles of policy, must make Governments
devote their serious attention to the good composition and
keeping up of their military force, which sooner than per-
haps may be imagined in a superficial view, may be again
called on by unforeseen events to defend the most valuable
of all blessings, the independence of nations.
A good nucleus, animated with zeal for the cause of the
country to which every citizen can with confidence associate
himself is all that under these circumstances can be required
by them. This nucleus must be good, sound, and firm, that
the spots of corruption may not quickly spread over the
whole. An army without military spirit is like rotten wood,
which at the slightest shock falls into dust.
In the beginning of this month of October an important
improvement will be made in the light-house at Egmon-
daan Zee ; viz., that the two old coal fires are to be replaced
by two stationary equally bright reflecting lights. These
lights, placed on towers, erected for the purpose, are to
stand
The Northernmost light .
The Southernmost
above the usual level of the sea, and distant from each other
310 Dutch ells in the direction nearly of N.N.W. I- 10,
and S.S.E. E. by the compass, which direction they will
steer on over each other.
The Augsburg Gazette contains the following remarkable
declaration, which it received from Paris, from the fugitive
Polish Count, Gurowski :
" The Editor of the Augsburg Gazette has announced
that the undersigned has applied for an amnesty. In order
to prevent all misunderstandings and malicious interpreta-
tions, I expect from the Editor's impartiality that he will be
so good as to insert the following declaration :
" I have applied through my relatives to his Majesty the
Emperor of Russia for an amnesty, because his long and my
own melancholy, but too late experience, as well during the
conflict as in the emigration, have clearly proved to me that
the political character of my countrymen is not at all suited
to an independent existence ; that a nationality which does
not possess in itself sufficient vital energy is considered in
history equal to political death as a State ; and after what I
have had an opportunity of seeing since the emigration, I
cannot believe that foreign nations or powers will be
willing or able in future to restore Poland as a State.
The amnesty for which I asked for some months ago I
shall probably not obtain, as the Russian Government is
not accessible to ideas of pardon, at least not in my fa-
vour, as a sentence of death has been passed on me in con-
tumation, from which I have no intention of clearing my-
self, and the persons who might and perhaps should intercede
for me have, according to all appearances, refused to do so.
In a word, I have very little hope. Nevertheless, I retain
the firm conviction of the fruitlessness and even of the pre-
judicial consequences of further opposition to the Russian
power. I have purchased dearly enough some little
right to form an opinion on the subject. I belonged to the
opposition in Poland before 1830. I took part in the in-
surrection of the 29th of November. I thought that I
did right. Experience has convinced me of the contrary.
I now, with the same good faith, take leaves of ideas which
I cannot by any means consider as favourable to the wel-
fare of my country. With respect to the reproaches with
which I may be honoured, I am above them. I too well
know their value. The issue will but justify me. While
I act in this manner I have no hope of returning to Po-
land. I shall probably be compelled to seek, if not another
country (since with the present name and ideas of nation-
ality this is impossible), at least a home and settlement
where I may do some good, for I am resolved, above all
things, to free myself from the bitter far niente of an emi-
grant. Even Dante complained bitterly of the injurious
consequences of any emigration. I heartily wish that those
who, as patriots, will probably cast the stone at me, may
possess the same turn of conscience and sincerity of con-
viction with which I take leave of them.
" ADAM COUNT GUROWSKI.

Mails being conveyed by capital steamers. No letter from Great
