FLANDERS AND HAMBURGH
MAILS.
(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)
BRUSSELS, DSc. 4.—The Chamber continued to-day
the debate on the budget of the finance department. The
several chapters of the budget were successively agreed
to, and the whole law passed unanimously by the sixty
Members present. To-morrow the budget of the depart-
ment of foreign affairs will be taken into consideration.
Sir Hamilton Seymour, her Britannic Majesty's Am-
bassador, has returned, after having been for some
months absent on leave.
On Monday, the 16th, his Majesty will have com-
pleted his fifty-fourth year. Te Deunt will be performed,
as usual, in the Church of St. Gudule.
ST. PETERSBURGII, Nov. 23.—The Emperor has been
pleased to confer the Order of St. Waldimir of the first
class, on Dr. Clot Bey, in the service of the Pacha of
Egypt, on account of the assistance given by him to the
Russian Commissioners, who were sent to Egypt to
make experiments on the purification of infected articles,
by the application of a high degree of heat.
HANOVER, Nov. 30. The report published in
some journals, that his Majesty the King in-
tended to confer on the Prince of Sohns a new here-
ditary office, that of hereditary Master of the Horse,
which was to be created for him, is not only doubted but
declared to be unfounded by persons who from their
situation must be well informed. In fact, the creation of
a new hereditary office seems to be highly improbable in
the present state of things. We learn that the last diffi-
culties which have delayed the final conclusion of the
convention respecting the iron railway are now removed,
and that the definitive conclusion will probably soon
take place.
TURKISH FRONTIER, Nov. 18.—The Jews of Jeru-
salem have examined Dr. Philippson, Rabbi, at Magde-
burg, and Dr. J. A. Jost in Berlin, because the
collections made in Europe for the Jews in Jerusalem,
which are said to amount to million and a half dollars
annually, may be partly employed by those honourable
men in the proposed establishment of a hospital and a
school for the Jews at Jerusalem. The Jews of Jeru-
salem will not learn anything ; they have printed a pro-
clamation in which they say "We, the seed of Israel, the
holy people, have no share in foreign studies, arts,
sciences, medicine and the like. If we were to spend our
time on those sciences what woull become of religion?"

belonging to the august visitors. A suite of rooms to be

visit. It is said thi.t all these altsmitions are to be ctqu-
pleted in as fortnigi:iL 11(:.ar It is quito uneeratill
