DUTCH PAPERS.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 14.—Her Majesty the Queen, and her
Royal Highness Princess Albert returned to the Hague yes-
terday from the Loo. The first boat with fresh herrings be-
longing to De \'askevisser, arrived on Saturday morning at
Scheveningen, from the herring fleet on the English coast.
Half an hour afterwards the second boat arrived. The first
brought 40,000, the second 24,000 herrings. The usual pre-
sents were immediately sent to the King and the principal
Officers of State. No more of the thirty-five boats employed
in the fishery have yet arrived at Scheveningen, which is pro-
bably owing to the bad weather. The herrings brought by
these first boats arc sold at 40 florins per 1,000.
OCT. 15.—Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess
Frederick of the Netherlands, arrived here this morning early
after an absence of several months. The comet was very
plainly seen here last night with the naked eye. It was in-
deed seen without the aid of a telescope at the end of last
week, but yesterday evening the air being clear it made a much
more brilliant appearance, having a shining tail which extended
over several degrees. It is evident to persons not deeply versed in
astronomy that the comet follows the course which M. F. Kaiser,
Professor of Astronomy at Leyden, pointed out as the most
probable, in his essay, and in the chart accompanying it. His
calculations have proved much more correct than those, for
instance, of M. Lethow, at Vienna, who, in his essay on the
comet, pointed out a course very different from that which we
see it take.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 16.—The Princess of Orange arrived
yesterday, on her return from Germany, at Soetsdyk, where
the Prince, her consort, was ready to receive her.
AMSTERDAM, OCT. 14.—We learn that the steam boat ex-
pected from Hamburg has been towed into the Texel by fish_
ing boats, with the loss of its chimney, and otherwise much
damaged; but we do not hear of any accident to the passengers
or crew. The storms of Saturday and. Sunday did great
damage on our coasts. Yesterday and the day before his Ex-
cellency M. Jets Van Goudrian, Minister of Finance, presided
in the ordinary meeting of the Syndicate, in which the Report
of the operations of the 12th year, ending June 30, 1835, and
the statement of the accounts, were unanimously approved.

CALUMNIES ON MRS. NESBITT•—A placard
has been, for the last few days, exhibited in some of the
principal thoroughfares, bearing the following inscription :
" Public and private life—secret amours and wonderful in-
trigues of Mrs. Nesbitt, the gay young widow and mana-
geress of the Queen's Theatre." The person carrying the
placard, at the same time hawked about pamphlets bearing
a similar title, but which, instead of containing an account
of the secret amours and intrigues which the placard and
title page of the pamphlet promised, was found on inspec-
tion to contain a highly complimentary article upon Mrs.
Nesbitt, extracted from the last number of the World of
Fashion. On Saturday afternoon a considerable sensation
was 'created at Charing-cross, in consequence of two gentle-
men being observed to go up to the man exhibiting the ob-
noxious placard, and without using any unnecessary violence
to the man, seize upon the placard itself and break it on the
street ; after which they quietly walked away. On inquiry
it was ascertained Oat the two gentlemen were na
other than Mr. Macnamara, the brother of the calumn-
niated lady, and Mr. Mitchell the stage manager of the
Queen's-theatre. Several bystanders who witnessed the
" fracas" expressed, in the most unequivocal terms, their
dirrbnation at this diabolical attempt to injure the reputation
and wound the feelings of a lady, whose character stands so
high in the public estimation as Mrs. Nisbett's, and their
approbation of the summary manner in which the offensive
placard has been dealt with. It is understood that on the
first intimation being given to Mrs. Nisbett of such placards
being abroad, she instantly made application to Mr. Min-
shull, the magistrate at Bow-street. Mr. Minshull, how-
ever, finding that the matter was not cognizable in his
Court, would not interfere, but recommended an indictment
against the parties at the Sessions, which, it is„.understood,
is now in progress. No doubt the offender will be duly
punished, if Mrs. Nesbitt thinks it worth her while to fol-
low up the business against the poor wretch ; but in truth,
it is not worth her while. Her character and reputation
stand too high to be affected by a trick which, though very
galling to a sensitive female mind, it must be evident was
only resorted to, in order to draw a few Fence from the
pockets of the public.
WHITE HARES.—Two hares of this description
have been shot during the present season by S. Cooke,
gamekeeper to the Rev. J. A. Rhodes, of Hersforth Hall.
