FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 7.—The average price of wheat last week was 23f.
62c., and that of _rye, 15f. 56e. There was a pretty considerable de-
cline in the price of potatoes at Brussels the day before yesterday,
300 sacks were offered for sale ; the prices varied from 10f. to 13f.
per sack, of 100 kilogrammes (2001b5.), which is 2f. less than in the
preceding market.
A letter from Mayence, published by the Rhenish Observer, says
that a serious financial crisis prevails at Frankfort at this moment.
Thus, on the 30th of last month, 20 per cent. was paid for the prolon-
gation of bills, whereas the rate of discount is generally 6 per cent.
The writer of the letter ascribes this unfortunate crisis, in a great
measure, to the all-powerful influence of Rothschild. He suggests the
foundation of a bank, which, besides the financial advantage, would
offer great political benefits to the state which should establish it.
. STLITTGARD.—The Swabian Mercury states that the Government of
Wurternburg has already rejected the renewed offer of an English
company to undertake the construction and management of an iron
railway in their kingdom.

WINDSOR ELECTION

WINDSOR, THURSDAY.—The intelligence of the death of Mr. John
Ramsbottom, which has been daily expected during the last fort-
period reached Windsor this morning and within a very
short
afterwards the following handbill, was posted throughout the
town !

" SIR JOHN DE BEAUVOIR FOR Evinl
Free and Independent Electors of Windsor,—Keep your powder
dry. Your old friend, Sir John de Beauvoir, takes the field for the
fifth time ; and, with the blessing of God on his and your united
exertions, he hopes to obtain a great and glorious victory p,
No other candidate up to this evening has publicly announced
himself. The following are spoken of:—Colonel Reid, of the 2d Life
Guards; Mr. John Walter, Bear-wood; Captain Bulkeley, Ist Life
Guards ; Mr. Jeremiah Filcher, Southwark ; Mr. East Clayton, one
of the sons of Lord Delawarr ; and Mr. J. E. Ansen, Private Secre-
tary to Prince Albert. The contest, however, is expected to be be-
tween Sir John de Beauvoir, Mr. Walter, and Colonel Reid, should
these gentlemen come forward.
It is stated that Colonel Reid will have the Government and Castle
interest ; and that, under these circumstances, Captain Bulkeley will
not offer himself.
As, at the last election, in 1841, Sir John de Beauvoir polled only
130 votes out of a constituency of 642, his chance of being returned
is supposed to be very remote.

VICTORIA PARK.—The paling round the park is
with a very trifling exception, all placed up, and the workmen are
engaged in levelling the roads and footpaths, and in making pre-
parations for planting, which will commence generally in the spring.
The last buildings required to be removed will be sold by auction next
week, prior to being immediately pulled down. They include the

TO INNKEEPERS AND OTHERS,

KING'S ARMS, PLYMOUTH.—FIRST-RATE COMMERCIAL
and FAMILY HOTEL, POSTING and COACH-HOUSE.
TO be LET, by PRIVATE CONTRACT,
with possession at Midsummer, for a Term of Years, that old-
established and well-accustomed Hotel, the KING'S ARMS, now
and for many years past in the occupation of Mrs. Mary Rowe,
situated in one of the best and most populous parts of the town, in
which an 'extensive business has been successfully carried on, anti
which may be easily improved, as the House contains the most
ample accommodation, excellent stabling, coach-houses, large
yard, &c.
To persons desirous of undertaking such a business, a most ad-
visable opportunity is now offered, as, in addition to the advantages
above pointed out, the great improvements about to be carried into
effect in the harbour of Sutton Pool, with the approach of the South
Devon Railway to the immediate vicinity, must greatly benefit the
general business of the neighbourhood, and in which a hotel so pro-
minently situated must largely partake.
For particulars, and to treat for the same, apply to Mr. William
Rivers, Hotel, Ivybridge ; or to Mr. William Howell, Cathedral-yard,
Exeter.

NEVER GIVE UP !

Nerer give up! it is wiser and better
Always to hope than once to despair;
Fling off the hnd Of D.;W,t's caidering fetter,
And break the dark spa of tyrannical care:
N -ver give up! or the burden -may sink you,—
Providence kindly has mingled the cup,
And, in all trials or troubles, bethink you
The watchword of life must be, Never give up!
Never give up ! there are chances and changes
Helping the hopeful a hunrired to one,
And through the chaos High Wisdom arranges
Ever success—if you'll only hope on :
Never give up ! for the wisest is both-at,
Knowing that Providence mingles the cup,
And of all maxims the best, as the oldest,
Is the true watchword of Never give up.
No or give upl—though the grape-shot may rattle,
Or the full thundercloud over you burst,
Stand like a rock—and the Aorm or the battle
Little shall harm you, though doing their worst :
Never Live up! if adversity presses,
Providence wisely has mingled the cup,
And the best counsel, in all your distresses,
Is the stout watchword of Never give up!

RAILWAYS TO THE WEST.

The decision of the Board of Trade on the com-
peting lines to the West, has given very general dis-
satisfaction in this locality, and speculation is rife re-
specting the grounds upon which the scheme from
Portarlington to Galway has been preferred to that
taking the course of the Royal Canal, through Mul-
linger, with branches to Athlone and Longford. It
witnesshas
o more universal
fallen to a
undertaking, and on this account the disappointment
was the greater that a hostile report should have been
o r lot,
support given to any public
as public journalists, to
pronounced upon it by the Board of Trade. Surely,
if that tribunal had any knowledge of the wants of
this particularly rich and central district, which is
not surpassed by any other in Ireland, they would
not reject the line by Mullingar and Longford, re-
specting which there was no competition. We are at
a loss to divine what te!son can he assigned in favour
of the selection, as it isin direct opposition to the
recommendations of the Railway Commissioners for
Ireland, and is alike destructive to the interests of
two canal navigations. We must confess we do not
place much confidence in the decisions of the Board
of Trade. The debates in Parliament, and the feel-
ing of the press, sufficiently convey the feelings of
the public respecting the utter incompetency of the
Railway Department of the Board of Trade to de-
cide on the vast interests entrusted to their charge;
and unless we are greatly mistaken in our opinions,
it will turn out that several of their decisions, par-
ticularly as regards Ireland, will be altogether re-
versed. In our first page will be found the resolu-
tiorA unanimously entered into at a very full meet-
ing of the provisional Directors, held on Monday
last. We understand that the grand juries of this
and the adjoining counties are determined to put for-
ward their opinions on the subject strongly before
Parliament, and we, for our part, entertain the most
sanguine expectations of success.—Dublin Times.

He had been informed that on Sunday, the day before
yesterday, an American ship, called the Franconia,

the produce of slave labour, and the captain stated that
more was on the way, The question he wished to ask
was, whether, as this wai the first importation .of sugar

it would 13,3 admitted at the. same duty as sugar from

question to-morrow he would give the best answer he
could.

DUTCH MAIL.

THE HAGUE, FEB. 28.—1 n the sitting of the Second
Chamber to-day, the proposal for revising the standing
orders of the Chamber was acceded to, after a long de-
bate, by a majority of 40 to 10.
A letter from Middleburgh, of the 26th, announces
that the ship Niderlands Koningen (Queen of the Nether-
lands), from Batavia to Rotterdam, was wrecked on the
Baujert, in the afternoon of the 24th. In the night of
that day the captain and twenty-one of the crew landed
near Domburg, and having been provided with some re-
freshment were sent to Domburg, where every attention
was paid to them. Yesterday they were brought here
in waggons, except the English pilot, who is too ill to be
removed. Six of the crew lost their lives, the boat in
which they were baring bees dashed against another
vessel and broken to pieces. By the latest accounts the
ship is atotal wreck.

MIDDLEBURG, FEB. 24.—Last week the re wee some
rioting at Zierickzee, in consequence, as it seems, of
some executions for arrears of taxes. The citizens, usu-
ally so peaceable, assembled by hundreds, broke win-
dows, and committed other excesses. The magistrates
issued a julicious proclamation, and order was soon re-
stored, after some of the ringleaders had been ar-
rested. A detachment of troops was sent from Flush-
ing, tie be at hand in case of any further disorders.

SHAVING A LUXURY.

PRICE and CO.'S RYPOPIIAGON surpasses every soap ever in-
vented for shaving. One trial will prove that the luxury of a good
shave can be enjoyed only by those who use Price and Co.'s Rypo-
phagon, which renders shaving (hitherto disagreeable and often pain-
MI) pleasant and easy.

Prepared by Price and Co., 28, Lombard-street (late Price and
Gosnell's), and sold by Deleroix and Co., 158, New Bond-street, and
nowhere else in London, price 3s. 6d. per pot, Is. per square, in cakes
or boxes Is. 6d. and 2s. 6d.

* * Mr. Price will have pleasure in presenting any brother travel-
er with a square of the Rypophagon gratuitously, who may do hint
the honour to call at Montpellier House, 2 t.,,Lowl,ard-street.

Mr. WALLACE gave notice that ho would postpone
his motion with regard to sugar, which stood on the
paper for to-day.

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE gave notice that, immediately
after Easter, he would move for leave to bring in a Bill
to secure the inviolability of letters passing through the
Post-office.—(Hear.)

Mr. SHIEL gave notice that he would on Tuesday,
the 11th of March, move a resolution expressing the
regret of the House that letters addressed to foreigners
residing in this country had been opened in the Post-
office without their knowledge or sanction, and that cer-
tain information with regard to the disturbances in the
Papal states should have been communicated to a foreign
power.---(Hear, hear.)
PROPERTY AND INCOME-TAX.

Mr. SPOONER gave notice that he would, in Com-
mittee on the Bill for the continuance of the property and
income-tax, move three clauses—one to enable all per-
sons to deduct from the profits of trade all sums of money
paid to their own families for the purpose of carrying on
the trade, which otherwise would have been paid to
other persons ; also a clause to enable persons to deduct
the amount of their poor-rates and other rates from
their income and a third clause, deducting the amount
of insurance upon life, and also the amount of expendi-
ture on articles necessary for carrying on the trade,
though such articles might occasionally be used for other
purposes.

DEATH OF BARON GURNEY.

Sir John Gurney, one of the Barons of the Court of Ex-
chequer, died on Saturday last, at his residence in Lincoln's
Inn-fields. He was born in the year 1768, and therefore at
the time of his death was in the 77th year of his age. In
the year 1793 he was called to the bar, and in 1797 he mar-
ried the daughter of Dr. Hawes. In the early portion of his
professional career• he devoted himself to Old Bailey prac-
tice, and soon attained a considerable reputation as a criminal
lawyer. He selected the Home Circuit for his provincial
practice, and the Court of King's Bench for-the higher por-
tion of his professional employment. Twenty-three years,
however, elapsed, before his professional station procured for
him the honour and advantage of a silk gown. It was in
the year 1823 that he was called within the bar. From that
time forward he only appeared occasionally in proceedings at
the Old Bailey ; but his practice in the Court of King's
Bench was never of the highest order. In early life he was
a member of an Independent congregation at Clapham, of
which the Rev. G. Browne, was the minister; but before his
elevation to the bench he joined the Church of England.

SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY.--A very interesting
selection of music is announced for performance on Wednes-
day next. It includes Handels " Coronation Anthem," his
" Dettingen To Deum' " and several other pieces, and Pur-
cell's " Jubilate," and his cantata, " In guilty night."
THE GRAVE-YARD NUISINCE.—S PAFIELDS BURIAL-
GROUND.—In consequence of the publicity given to the
abuses alleged to be committed in Spafields Burial-ground,
Sir James Graham, the Poor-law Commissioners, and the
parish authorities of Clerkenwell have taken up the matter.
On Sunday last, Captain Hay, Superintendent Massey, and
Inspector Penny, with several officers of the G division, to-
gether with the parish officers of Clerkenwell, and a Com-
mittee ef the inhabitants who have exerted themselves to
expose and put down the nuisance, assembled at the house
of Mr. Watt, pawnbroker and silversmith, in Exmouth-street,
Spafields, in order to take the depositions of parties in refe-
rence to the state of the grave-yard and the abuses alleged to
have been carried on therein, for the purpose of laying them
before Sir James Graham, &c., preparatory to petitions
(which have been prepared) being presented to the Houses
of Lords and Commons. Several parties were examined ;
but their evidence was a reiteration of what has already ap-
peared in the newspapers, and the petitions were to the same
purport. Captain Hay and the whole of the parties at-
tended yesterday before the Board of Guardians, in elerken
well workhouse, when the depositions were laid before the
Board, and it is the intention of Mr. Wakeling, the vestry
clerk, to indict the parties concerned at the sessions.

DEATH OF LORD WYNFORD.

This nobleman, the Right Hon. William Draper Best, P.C.,
D.C.L., first Baron Wynford, died yesterday morning, at his
seat, Lessons, Kent. The deceased nobleman was born in
1767, and consequently had attained his seventy-eighth year.
In 1794 he married the second (laughter of Jerome Knap,
Esq., who has been some years dead, and by whom he had
ten children, four of whom only, however, survive him,
namely, the Hen. William Samuel, who succeeds to the title,
born 1798, and married the youngest daughter of William
Hovtt, Esq., of Berkshire; the Hon. Captain Thomas Best,
R.N., married to the second daughter of Lord Kenyon ; the
Hon. and Rev. Samuel Best, rector of Abbott Anne, Hants.,
and married the youngest daughter of Sir James Burough,
late one of the Judges of the Common Pleas; and the Hon.
Grace Anne, married to Phillip Luke Godsal, Esq.
The late Peer held for some time a confidential office in the
household of George the Fourth when Prince Regent, and
was afterwards for many years a distinguished advocate in
the Court of Common Pleas as Sergeant Best. In 1819 his
Lordship was appointed one of the Judges of the Court of
King's Bench, and in 1824 was raised to the Chief Justiceship
of the Court of Common Pleas, in which be had so long dis-
tinguished himself as a pleader. In 1829 he was elevated to
the Peerage, and then retired from the bench. Lord Wyn-
ford had for many years suffered severely from rheumatic
gout, indeed to the extent of totally paralysing his lower
extremities, but so zealous was he in the performance of his
Parliamentary duties, that he has frequently rolled in a chair
to his seat in the Bouse,;when the privilege was, under these
circumstances accorded to him, of speaking without rising.

TEMPERANCE.

Mr. BROTHERTON presented a petition from se-
veral places, against the sale of intoxicating liquors on
the Sabbath.

Sir JOHN OWEN STANLEY presented petitions
from several places, in favour of Temperance Societies.

LAND-TAX.

Sir WILLIAM HEATTICOTE presented a petition
from Basingstoke and several other places in the
county of Southampton, praying for relief from
the taxes on land and agricultural produce, and
stating that when the value of their produce was reduced
by taxation or adverse circumstances, they were obliged
to keep their labourers and support them, while the nun.-
nufaeturers were enabled to discharge them. On this
ground they conceived themselves entitled to relief.

MALT-TAX.
Lord RENDLES El ANI presented a petition from se•
veral places in the county of Suffolk, praying for a re,
rat of the malt-tax.

NORWICH AND BRANDON RAILWAY (DISS

DEVIATION)

On the motion that this Bill be read a second time,
Mr. M. GIBSON moved that this Bill should be mak
a second time that day fortnight. This Bill had been
reported against by the Board of Trade, and he thought
it ought not to be read a second time until the report of
the Board of Trade was before the House.
Lord JOCELYN seconded the motion.
Lord HO WICK thought the object of the Honourable
Member for Manchester would be met by the resolutions
of the Railway Committee, which would be presented
to- morrow.

Mr. BROTIIERTON said, whether these resolutions
were passed or not, it could make little or no difference,
and therefore he would have no objection to support the
amendment.

Mr. BARING--The course suggested by the Hon.
Member opposite was one that had not been adopted in
reference to any other Bill, and therefore he (Mr.
Baring) could not see why it should be adopted in re-
ference to this Bill. He conceived that all the purposes
would be answered by the resolutions of to-morrow.
Sir R. INGLIS was of opinion that the consideration
of the Bill should not be postponed for so long a time.
Mr. HAWES conceived that, as no other Bill would
be affected by the motion, no objection could be made
to it.

Mr. LABOUCHERE said he would bring forward
the Bill for a second reading in th© usual course, for he
could not see why this Bill should not be placed in the
same position as others.

Mr. WODEHO USE would beg leave to say he con-
ceived that, under all the circumstances, the postpone-
ment would be the most equitable course.
Mr. R. W. B. COLLETT—As the London and York
Bill had passed sub silentio, he could not see why this
little Bill should not be permitted to pass in the same way.
Mr. GIBSON, after a few words, withdrew his amend-
ment.
London, England, 1845-03-04

RAILWAYS.

• Lord G. SOMERSET rose to propose the resolutions
recommended by the General Committee on Railways, of
which he had given notice; but the low tone of voice in
which the Noble Lord spoke, and thi buzz of voices in
all parts of the House, rendered it quite impossible for
more than a word or two in a few sentences to be heard
in the gallery; but the following is the substance of his
Lordship's observations as well as they could be underztood.
He said there was an enormous number of railway Bills
now before the Board of Trade, many of which had
been reported favourably upon, and would therefore
be brought before the House; they amounted, he should
say, to about two hundred and forty-six, and those
Bills, he need not tell the House, involved the outlay
of vast sums of money, much of which had already been
expended. The Board of Trade, the better to facilitate
the progress of those Bills, had divided them into
hthoetyher ; and he should be
families or classes, and proposed that they should
be taken up in that order, and disposedofin
found
dwtaoyeboymptehtee

rupon e
as
each
hoped that this course would be found a convenient one
by the House, for the Board of Trade had found it im-
possible to proceed with the vast number of Bills be-
fore it without adopting this mode of classification,
unless injustice were done in some quarter.
The second branch of the inquiry related to the compo-
sition of the Select Committees to whom the Bills were
to be referred, and the main question to be considered
was, whether or not Members representing
local interests should be permitted to serve on
such Committees. He was fully alive to the
great advantage which was attendant in many
respects on the admission of Members representing local
interests on these Committees. The protection of the
poorer proprietors through whose land it was intended a
projected line should pass was better attended to by local
Members than it could be by any others. But, when he
came to consider the manner in which the appointment of
these local members was to be regulated, he was reluctantly
compelled to admit that it would be utterly impracticable
to frame any roles so as to secure fair dealing to all par-
ties. Let them take a long line—,the London and
York, fur in,tance. How would it be possible to
arrange any Committee so as to represent all the
local .interests on the line. He had been very
anxious to devise means to regulate the attendance of
these Members, but he could not find any means of
attaining the object which would not give rise
to greater evils than those which they pro-
posed to remedy, and therefore he had given it up.
He understood that it was not probable that any rail-
way Bill would go into Committee before Easter. The
Noble Lord concluded by moving the resolutions.
Mr. CHRISTOPHER said he wished to call attention
to that resolution the effect of which would be to exclude
Members who had a local interest in railways from
serving on Committees, and he thought it would

On Saturday evening the King and Queen of the French
received Prince Paul of Wertemburg, Marshal Oudinot, the
Ministers of Sweden, Saxony, Saxe-Weimar, and the United
States, Viscount Baidy, &c.
The following appears in the Augsburg Gazette of the 26th
nit.:—" If we be well informed, the Sardinian Government
will, without delay, send a corps of observation to the Swiss
frontier. Austria will also issue orders to the same effect to
two or three regiments, and the German Diet will take care
to have the Baden frontier occupied by a corps of federal
troops. We shall soon know what France has decided; but,
meanwhile, I can affirm that she has hitherto made common
cause with the other Continental Cabinets."
The King of Prussia has presented the King of the French
with a magnificent porcelain vase, manufactured at Berlin,
which his Prussian Majesty has recently forwarded to Paris.
King Louis Philippe made the bearer of the vase a cadeau of
4,000 francs.

His Royal Highness Prince George of Prussia, who has
been sojourning during the winter at Naples, intended to
quit that city fur Rome towards the latter end of last month.
Princess Albrecht of Prussia is still at Rome, where her
Royal Highness purposes remaining until after the Easter
holidays.
The extraordinary Diet of Switzerland did not sit on the
26th ultimo. The struggle respecting the Jesuits was to
have commenced on the 27th, and it was expected to last
several days. In the meantime, the foreign Ministers as-
sembled at Zurich were holding frequent conferences.
&The Dowager Empress of the Brazils (Duchess of Bra-
ganza) intends leaving Munich at the close of April to pass
the summer at Rio Janeiro.

Accounts from Barcelona, of the 24th ult., state that the
English brig Friendship, Captain Draper, bound for London,
from Peniscola, Valencia, has been wrecked at the mouth of
the Ebro. The vessel and cargo were entirely lost. The
crew managed to gain the shore, after undergoing a severe
buffeting from the waves.

The Eck du Midi, of the 23d ult., mentions a report that
a company of engineers, on its march from Montpellier to
Paris, had suffered so severely from the cold, that eight of
its men had their ears, their hands, or their feet, so much
frost-bitten, that they were obliged to be• left at the hospital
of Saint-Chely.

SIR R. PEEL'S FINANCIAL STATEMENT.
S. Gilbert, London.
This report of the Premier's speech on bringing
forward the Budget has been neatly got up and is
published in a pamphlet form. The report itself is
exceedingly correct. We have gone over it care-
fully and have not detected an error.
