FLANDERS AND IIAMBURGH
MAILS.

BRUSSELS, JUNE 17.--:The Duke and Duchess of Nemours ar-
rived at Ostend to-day, and immediately proceeded in the royal
carriage to Lacken.
The Duchess of Kent and suite arrived at Brussels at eight in
the evening.
The Duke and Duchess of Nemours will set out to.morrow
morning fur Valenciennes, and the Duchess of Kent for Germany.
It seems that Lord Aberdeen will accompany Queen Victoria
next month to Brussels, Coburg, Weimar, Dresden, and Gotha.
Her Majesty's visit to Paris seems to be deferred till next year.
Beaux, JUNE 11.---A resolution, or rather an intention of the
authorities, has just become known, to send away all foreign
writers, that is all foreigners who are settled here. It is thought
that they exercise an injurious influence on the press, which can-
not now be paralysed by any other means. The consequences of
such a step cannot at present be estimated, as the number of men
of letters is very great, and the execution of this measure of the
police would effect numerous interests. We see that the word
" foreigners" is to be understood in a two-fold sense. First, to in-
clude all who are not Prussian subjects ; and second, these who
do not belong to the city of Berlin. All those are to be sent
away within a few weeks, some out of the kingdom, the others to
the provinces. The number of these persons is very differently
stated at twenty, thirty, and even forty. It will depend on the
line that the police will draw. . _

BERLIN, JUNE I3.—The law respecting the writers leaving
here is more and more confirmed. The lists of all the names are,
it is said, made out, and twenty-nine marked as the worst. The
Ministers Bulow and Flottweil are said to oppose the measure, and
to iNsist that at least the return of the King shall be waited for be.
fore extreme measures are thought of.

An extraordinary sensation is caused here by news just received
from Carlsruhe, that the population of that town, on thepublication
of the intelligence, had attacked the house of the Prussian Resi-
dent Minister, broken the windows, &c., and that the manufac-
turers had dismissed all their Prussian workmen.

It appears to be understood in the City that Mr.
Alderman Challis and R. W. Kennard, Esq. (of Thames.street),
will on Midsummer-day (Tuesday) be elected Sheriffs of London
and Middlesex without opposition.
Mr. C. I'. Villiers paired oft' with Mr. Brownrigg
in favour of Mr. C. Buller's motion upon New Zealand.
WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JUNE 20.—Our
arrivals of Grain are small this week. Fresh Wheat is in request ;
anything choice brings rattier more money, and all other sorts fully
as dear. Barley nominal. Oats and Shelling steady in value.
Beans without alteration. Other articles as before.

CORONER'S INQUEST. - SUICIDE INDUCED BY
DRUNKENNESS•—Last evening an inquest was held by Mr. Bed-
ford, at St. George's Hospital, on the body of Ann Bray, ned 59,
the wife of a labourer, living in Francis-street, Chelsea. It appeared
from the evidence that the deceased had for the last two years been
in the habit of drinking to great excess, and when under the in-
fluence of liquor, was half mad. On Monday morning she got up
at an early hour, and having procured a razor belonging to her son,
proceeded to the water-closet, and cut her throat, dividing the
muscles of the neck to the larynx. She was removed to the hos-
pital, where she was attended by Mr. Hyde, the assistant surgeon.
From the effects of the wound she partially recovered, but died on
Thursday morning from delirium tremens, accelerated, Mr. Hyde
said, by the loss of blood. The deceased had frequently threatened
she would destroy herself—Verdict, "Temporary insanity."

THE GREAT \\ ESTERN RAILWAY, FRIDAY EVEN-
tren.—As the express train to Paddington, consisting of four pas-
sengers' carriages and a luggage van, had nearly reached Salthill,
the engine-driver observed that the luggage van was off the rail,
Ile immediately slackened the speed, and stopped the train before
it had proceeded a quarter of a mile further, without causing the
slightest alarm to the passengets. The driver then proceeded with
the engine to Slough, and returned with the necessary assistance to
replace the van, which was done in half an hour, sad the train pro-
ceeded to town. Fortunately, the van was in the rear of the car.
riagea, or the accident might have proved of serious consequence.
The passengers during the delay did not leave the carriages.
TELEGRAPH HVF.R THE ATLANTIC.-A writer in
the New York Tribune suggests a plan for bringing Old England
within a =peaking distance. Ile proposes to run a copper wire,
well covered, and as large as a pipe stem, from Nova Scotia to the
coast of Ireland. This, as is thought, may be accomplished by
winding the wire upon reels, and arranging it on board a steamer
sa as to be reeled off as fast as the boat goes, and dropped the
whole Width of the Atlantic. The writer says—" Its gravity would
sink it to the depth where water was so dense as to be of equal gra-
vity, and of course beyond the reach of any kind of collision. Be-
ginning and ending upon a bold shore, beyond the reach of anchors,
it would be out of harm's way, and exposed but to two kinds of
accidents—viz., from separation by its own weight, and the loss of
the coating with which the metal must be protected. The steamer
Great Britain would carry more wire of this size than would ex.
tend to Europe, and its cost, I think, would be lets than a million
of dollars."
