The President submitted the following question to the
Chamber :—" The department of the Loire Inferieure (as
stated in a former sitting) had named four deputies not resi-
dent in the department, instead of three : the deputy who was
to retire was consequently to be chosen by lot ; and the ques-
tion now before the Chamber was, whether that mode of deci-
sion should be immediately adopted."
The decision on the question was adjourned, and the Cham-
ber passed to the order of the day.
The admission of M. Mathieu (previously adjourned) was

BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, Aun. 13.—A letter from Ostend, of the 11th,
says:—
" The number of strangers of distinction who are now here
for sea bathing is considerable. Visitors too are coming from
all quarters. The last steam-boat from London brought 103
passengers.

" Their Majesties have been out this morning in an open
carriage, followed by several others, but without attendants or
escort, to examine the port, the basons, &c. Their Majesties
went on board the fine American ship the Dalmatia, which
they greatly admired.
" The Chamber of Commerce of this town has had the
honour to be received by his Majesty. In its address the fol-
lowing sentiments were expressed.
" Belgium, independent and neutral, has no reason to fear
that it will be cut off from the number of the maritime nations
of Europe ; but it is imperatively necessary for it to replace
those of its ships which lately hoisted a foreign flan-. It is,
however, its interest to employ for this purpose only its own
resources ; the vessels which have ceased to belong to it were
built in its territory, and it possesses within itself the means to
supply their place.
" It would be a fatal insinuation to pretend that Belgium
ought to complete its mercantile navy with vessels built in
other countries ; the country possesses in abundance men and
materials to equip ships; and your Majesty Al not allow the
Belgian flag to be hoisted in wretched barks and vessels, made
of fir, which might be had at a low price in the environs of the
Zuy-der Zee and the Baltic, while the dockyards of the king-
dom were idle, and a crowd of artizans and workmen forced to
leave their country, in order to find employment.
" There is another doctrine, the propagation of which would
be mischievous. Belgium, it is said, having no colonies, can-
not trade directly with the Indies. This assertion is refuted
by facts : the Belgian flag is seen in every sea. The eman-
cipation of many colonies, and the free ports of others, enable
all nations to take part in general commerce.
" In the present state of things it has become advisable that
the Tariff of Customs should inipose different duties in favour
of goods imported under the national flag, and that exportation
be wisely encouraged by a drawback ; this combination would
promote the welfare of all the provinces of the kingdom.
" People talk, Sire, of the necessity of protecting the mer-
cantile navy by means of ships of war. Allow merchants and
shipowners to confess to your Majesty that they consider such
support as vain show.

I‘. There are local interests, the prosperity of which affects
that of the kingdom; the fisheries are of the number, they
have need of protection.

" It would be also desirable that the whole fishery should be
protected as in the neighbouring States."
The address contained some Other suggestions,
His Majesty replied—
" I have been satisfied, Gentlemen, with the lucid manner in
which the Chamber of Commerce of Ostend has in its va-
rious writings defended, without partiality to local interests,
the general interests of commerce ; I will examine the points
that you have stated to me. You may depend on my doing
every tiling in my power to encourage commerce."
A judicial investigation -is now on foot respect*
the dual
between Messrs. Canty and Campion a month ago. Several
witnesses will be examined, strong whom we hear are Count
Cornelessen and M. Forbes.---Brussels Papers, Airy" 14.
