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 Nide!.lands Koningen (Queen of the Nether-
lands), from Batavia to Rotterdam, was wrecked on the
Baujert, in the afternoon of the 24th. In the night o
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 having been dashed against another
vessel and broken to pieces. By the latest accounts the
ship is a-,total wreck.
MIDDLEBURG, FEB. 24.—Last week there was some
rioting at Zierickxce, 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, to be at hand in case of any further disorders.

to-day as regards news.

The market for Stocks has been firm, but rather quiet
to-day. The report of the Paris Bourse shows that there
was a good deal of buoyancy there on Saturday ; and it
would appear that the French Ministry is considered safer.
Consols have been 991 A to 99% for present transfer, and 100
to 10018 for the 17th of April. The Unfunded Debt is
better supported, the premium having been 625. to 635.

212 to 213. Long Annuities are 12 1 16.
The Foreign Securities, notwithstanding the limited extent
of the operations entered into, have been all firm. Spanish
Five per Cents. have realised 284 14., and the Three per
Cents 41 to 41%. Portuguese Converted have been 611/4,
Mexican have realised 361% to 361/2, Brazilian 87, and Buenos
Ayres 4314. Dutch Two and-a-rialf per Cents. are 634,, and
the Four per Cents. 993 A.
Shares generally are buoyant to-day. Brighton and South-
Eastern are higher, owing to the reported amalgation of the
two, the latter being guaranteed a high rate of interest.
Churnet Valley are liot so good. French lines are rising.
