BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, JULY B.—The following account is given of the
Journal du Commerce of Antwerp, respecting the troubles
which, according to the Phace, were said to have broken out
in Friesland:—" Several journals, on the authority of a paper
of this city, speak of troubles as having broken out in Fries-
land. If the fact in question is not wholly false this time, like
most of the accounts published in that Antwerp journal re-
specting Holland, there is at least great exaggeration in the
manner in which it relates it. It is true that there have
been some disorders in Friesland, and that they were
excited by a small number of unfortunate persons, who
were not able to pay their taxes, but these disorders were very
far from being of such a nature as is pretended. In particular
it is false that the refusal to pay taxes is general in Freisland,
and that it has been necessary to send a strong military force
to that province. Our correspondent in Holland assures us,
that the whole is confined to the opposition of a small number
of persons, who are obstinate or unable to pay, and that there
is no more reason to apprehend civil war in that province than
in any other part of the Dutch territory.
The last documents relative to the indictment against the
persons to be tried at Mons for the riots at Brussels, in April
last, have been communicated to them. They form a very
large volume. The witnesses are summoned for the 14th of
this month. We (the Courrier Beige) have already given our
opinion of the law on the import duty upon linen, which in our
opinion will afford but small assistance to the linen trade, and
of which the only result will be. that of opening the door to
restrictions. Now that the Chamber has entered on this
course it will hardly stop, and we do not despair of seeing the
little commercial liberty that the country enjoyed gradually dis-
appear. The law on the corn trade will soon furnish the represen-
tatives of the nation, with another opportunity of manifesting their
tendency to restrictions and prohibitions." The Chamber of
Representatives, in its sitting of yesterday, concluded the dis-
cussion of the articles of the law on the import and transit
duties on linen ; 65 Members were present, of whom 48 voted
for, and 15 against the law. Two Members, Messieurs Hoff-
schmidt and Dumotier declined voting, the former because he
thought the law bad, the latter because he would have voted
for a protecting law, but cannot assent to one which he con-
siders as prohibitory.

ST. PETERSBURGII, JUNE 25. —Their Royal Highnesses
the Crown Prince and Princess of Prussia arrived to-day, at
one o'clock, in good health, after a most fortunate voyage, at
Peterhoof, where they were received with the greatest joy by
the Emperor and the Empress, and the Imperial Family.
The Dutch ship of the line, the Zeeurv, with the Prince
Frederick Henry of the Netherlands on board, has arrived in
our Road.

News has been received from Moscow of the death of Prince
Kolschuberg, President of the Council of the Empire, and
Chancellor of the Affairs of the Interior.

The Imperial Ukase of the 19th October, 1831, had sub-
jected the citizens and free cultivators of the governments of
Witepsk, Mobilew, Minsk, Kameniez, Podolk, Kiew, Vol-
hynia, Grodno, and the province of Byalystock, to personal
military service, and they were in consequence to furnish ten
recruits for every 500 inhabitants.
The execution of this measure, however, was suspended by
an ordonnance of the 14th of January, 1834. Under a new
Imperial order this levy of recruits is to take place imme-
diately, and completed at the latest on the Ist of September.
The inhabitants who supply the recruits are to furnish like-
wise the sum of 38 rubles for the equipment of each man.—
Prussian State Gazette, July 4.

The Spanish Minister, accredited to our Court, Don
Guoliercy de das Rios, has left us, and, according to all ap-
pearances, he will not return for a long time. This absence
of the diplomatic representative of Spain is, however, not oc-
casioned by the departure of M. Liebermann, our Minister
from Madrid, but on account of the turn of affairs which has

taken place in Spain and Portugal, as well as in connection
with those of Switzerland, and in the influence which Eng-
land and France exercises in those countries. The principle
on which those powers act, have necessarily caused other Ca-
binets to make representations to which, for the present at
least, no satisfactory answers have been returned, and which
will give use to long diplomatic negotiations. Until these are
terminated, it must be difficult on our side to acknowledge
officially the persons at present reigning.—Frankfort Papers,
July 2.
FRANCFORT, JUNE 26.—The negotiations respecting Lux-
emburg are still continued, but without promising a speedy
result. There is at this moment a very violent correspondence
between General Dumoulin and General Tabor, the former
claiming the military limits of the fortress to extend four
miles, and the Belgian General protesting against it. This
may lead to serious consequences, unless the Governments
come to an understanding how far the military limits
shall extend. At Berlin this subject is under consider-
ation, to avoid, 'by some means or another, extremities
being resorted to. Possibly the researches of 1831, which
decided the territorial proportions between Holland and Bel-
gium, may serve as a basis, and thus the relations be again re-
stored as they were formerly. It is said that the Dutch Go-
vernment have expressed a wish to bring an end to the
differences with Belgium, and for this purpose a project has
been drawn up at the Hague, by which they say an arrange-
ment may be brought about.—Allgemeine Zeitung, July 4.
