DUTCH AND HAMBURGH
THE HAGUE, MARCH 29.—The answer of the Government
to the observations of the Chamber on the tariff, itoP° if!
export, and transit duties, contained, among others, the
lowing remarks :
" From the observations communicated in the preliininal
report of the central section. on the principle which shod
form the basis of a tariff of duties for the Netherlands, If
other inference can be drawn than that the majority
the Members of the second Chamber who took part al,.
discussion in the section agree, as far as the wants of the r,
sent moment are concerned, with the principles adopted
the Government and acted on in the tariff. On the whole, htle,.;
ever, the opinion or the majority of the Chambers and to%
of the Government is, that the system of protection ill
departure from the principles of sound political economy, 13°
that through long-continued observation, it has become nY
cessary, which cannot be done away with at once. A buddy!
change is the less advisable, because, in almost all the State.
with which the Netherlands have commercial relations, th.
principle of protection is the basis of their commercial legw-
lotion. f the
THE HAGUE, Aron, 1.---The accounts of the state o
rivers received to-day, state that the water continued to
and that, in consequence of the late storms, the dikes in soma
places have sustained some injury. The Rhine, at Cologne:
was, on the 27th of March, at 19 feet 4 inches ; on the 28th, 8"
23 feet, and on the 29th, at 28 feet 10 inches, having rise°
eight feet and a half in three days.
DussELDonr, 111ARcri 30.—Tb.e Rhine has risen 2 feet 10
inches since yesterday, and is how at 26 feet 10 inches'
Almost the whole of the west part of the city is under wate:,
The Cologne steam-boats began their voyages on the
Rhine for this year on the 27th. The Dutch steamer Th..
Louis proceeded up the Rhine, and sailing vessels began ""
appear in the river.'
VIENNA, MARCH 20.—A sensation not to be described
been produced by the Imperial decree published ite day bet..'"
yesterday, which abolishes the punishment of the pall
except in the case of criminals sentenced to dea:ll. Tay
new relaxation of the rigour of our criminal laws is cetth..
to the honour of the Emperor. The enthusiasm and sit!a`,-;:,
merit of the public to his Majesty increases daily, and L,
more so as it is known that a new criminal code has been 101!
in preparation, and that the Emperor thought fit before'"
was promulgated to abolish the punishment of the pillory
which has long been objected to.
BERLIN, MARCH 23.—Our negotiations with Denmark
the regulation of the Sound duties have hitherto failed °Ol
success, not so much through the independent opposition,.
that little kingdom as through the support which it finds i;
the great Powers, all of which, however friendly is.l oitb„s,
matters, cannot bear the idea of seeing Germany indepetuge-•
united, aid powerful. England fears that it would los%
considerable part of its commerce if this restriction on tm
trade
CH of the Baltic were oved.
RISTIANA, MARCH 21.rem—Hopes are entertained here 00
a very necessary reform in the representation of our coon

and independent state so long as it is represented by Swede:l;g

GAME.—We have much pleasure in stating
the occupiers of farms under the Duke of Bedford, besides the`'
privilege of destroying rabbits, have now permission to coal;
