FLANDERS MAIL.

Patussers, DEC. I.—On Tuesday, the 16th of this
month,-his Majesty the King of the Belgians will com-
plete his 55th year.
The inhibitants of the city of Ghent have just sent to
the Chamber' of Representatives a petition, very nume-
rously signed, for a reform in the Post-office.
The I;ecaaseur of Antwerp, of the 30th, says :
" The arrival of numerous ships, in anticipation that the
navigation. may soon be closed, and partly in conse-
quence of the increased importation of provisions, give
ample employment to the labouring, classes, who have
now as much as they can do."
The Cologne Gazette publishes a letter from Berlin,
which contains news of such importance, that though ire
think it our duty to mention it, in order to acquaint
our readers of all that is done or reported in the political
world, we cannot credit the statements in this letter.
It is reported in some political circles that the Pore •
has decided to recognise the Protestant Church, and the
Greek Church. There are various statements on the
subject, some say that the Pope will ratify as far as
Germany is concerned the treaties of Munster and Oana-
burg of 1648, and that he will order some conciliatory
measures with regard to mixed marriages.
BERLIN, Nov. 26.—The latest accounts which our
Court has received from Palermo, state that the Emperor
of Russia has changed his first plan, and has determined
to pass some days at Rome. These accounts add that
all the differences between the Emperor and the Papal
See relative to the Catholic Church in Russia are com-
pletely settled to the satisfaction of the two parties.
It is said a superior officer about the King's person
will go, in a few days, to Rome, on a special mission.
The news of concessions which the Papal See intends to
!flake to the Protestant Church, appears to be confirmed.
With respect to the new organisation of the Protestant
Church in Russia, it seems nearly certain that the
superior administration of it will be confided to a Presi-
dent of the Consistory, of strictly orthodox opinions,
Lich proves that the Rationalists and the Friends of
Light cannot expect the support of the Russian Govern-
ment, their creed not being conformable to that of the
Evangelic Church contained in this agenda.—Journal de

APPREHENSION OF A SUPPOSED FORGER.--A per-
son, named Mitchell, who is charged with uttering a forged
bill of exchange for 2,0001., at Carlisle, has been apprehended
in Birkenhead, through the activity of Inspector Hall, of the
Birkenhead police.—Liverpool Courier,
CAPTURE OF A SHARK.—On Monday last, as the
fishermen of Sidmouth were out with their herring nets.
one of them observed some strong and sudden movement in
one of the nets, which brought him to a close examination,
when, to his surprise, he found a large fish entangled in it.
Ile made a signal to some of the sons of Zebedee, who came
to his assistance, and, after a long struggle, they captured
and got it safe to land. It was of the shark species, and
measured eight feet in length.— West Briton.
OMNIBUS ROBBERY.—Yesterday the police re-
ceived information that a lady named Moreland, residing at
No. 7, Dorset-street, Pall-mall, had been robbed of her purse
whilst riding in an omnibus between Coventry-street and
llonndsditch, by, it is supposed, a well-dressed individual
who sat next to her, and who got out at the Rank. The
purse contained only 30s. in silver. The robbery was effected
by cutting through the dress.
FALL OF THREE HOUSES.—On Tuesday night, about
eight o'clock, an occurrence that at the time caused great
excitement, and has since spread agloom over the neighbour-
hood, took place in Cavendish-place, Wandsworth-road. It
appears train the inquiries made by the reporter that Mr.
Corral', a builder, had recently erected four six-roomed
Louses with shop fronts, in Cavendish place. They had
been covered in, and the lathing and flooring had been com-
pleted, but there yet was some plastering, and ether
matters to be done. On the night in question Oliver Carroll,
the son of the builder, who was only in his twentieth year,
his brother, and a labourer, were at work on one of the
basement- floors of the houses, laying concrete, when, as it is
supposed, the end wall of the house nearest the Cavendish
Arms, bullied out. and in less than a minute the three houses
separated from the fourth, which was appafently much more
strongly built, and fell with a loud crash, burying in the
ruins the two brothers, the labourer escaping with a few
bruises from the falling bricks. An instant alarm was given,
and in an incredibly short space of time a large body of men
assembled, and commenced removing the bricks and timber
with the sanguine hope of preserVing the persons buried. In
a few minutes one of the Carrolls was discovered, and brought
out ; he was alive, and owed his preservation to two pieces
of timber falling crossway, and thus preventing the rubbish
suffocating him. He was carried home by two men, suffering
from some very severe contusions. In about ten minutes
after the accident occurred, Sergeant Emmerson, 16 V, with
a number of constables, arrived, and cleared away the mob
that had assembled, so that the men might pursue their
work uninterrupted. The men latioured unceasingly for
three-quarters of an hour, when a sufficient opening was
made for a man to creep in, who reported that he saw
the deceased Oliver Carroll in a sitting position, about
three yards distant from where he was. The men re-
doubled their energies, and in another ten minutes they
cleared an enormous mass of timber and brick which were
on the deceased, and Sergeant Emmerson dragged him
out. His head had been driven between his knees, and
his back was apparently broken. He was, to all appear-
ance dead, but, nevertheless, was conveyed with the utmost
celerity to the Cavendish Arms, where Mr. Palmer, a sur-
geon, had been in attendance since the accident, so that he
might be of service to the unfortunate sufferers. Mr. Palmer
resorted to bleeding, the•application of stimulants, &c., but
although one or two drops of blood came there was no sign
of life manifested, and the surgeon gave it as his opinion that
the deceased must have been suffocated some time. One or
two carpenters were in the act of leaving the building at the
time of its falling, so that their escape may be considered
miraculous. The materials of the houses were evidently of
a very common description, the mortar especially seemed to
have been made without that great essential, lime, for there
was scarcely a brick to which it adhered.
THE MAILS.—SOUTHAMPTON, DEC. 3.—The Orien-
tal Company's steam-ship the Tagus, Captain Brookes, left
the docks this day with the East India and China mails en
route for Alexandria, having a very full cargo of bale goods,
and above sixty passengers. The Royal West India mail-
packet, the Severn, left this port yesterday with the West
India and South American mails, a goods cargo, including
650 bottles of quicksilver, and above eighty passengers. The
inward mails from the West Indies will be brought by the
Medway, which is expected to arrive here to-morrow.
ROBBERY ON BOARD HER MAJESTY'S YACHT
TIM WILLIAM AND MAaY.—Yesterday the police received
information that some thief had stolen from the William and
Mary yacht, which is now lying in the river Thames, a
large and valuable ship telescope—maker's name, " Syed and
Davies, London,"—the property of her Majesty. Similar
robberies have of late been very frequent on board vessels
lying in the river Thames.
Loss OF THE BREAKWATER.—We have just
heard that this old vessel, so long known in the Nith, was
wrecked last night, during the severe gale, off Carsethorn,
laden with a cargo of oak timber, for Naryport. We deeply
regret to add that the master, Captain Huddert, and his son,
who formed the crew of the vessel, were both drowned. The
vessel belonged to Mr. Shaw, of Marypott, and left the Nith
by yesterday's tide. The cargo belonged to Mr. Sloan,
Auchencrieff.—Dainfries Courier,
SHOCKING ACCIDENT IN THE LONDON DOCKS.—

in the navigation of steam-boats and other craft, particularly
between Blackfriars-bridge and Waterloo-bridge.
