(ttECEIVED THIS DAY.)
BRUSSELS, DEC. 30,:--The Senate voted to-day, with-
out discussion, the project of law relative to a credit of
121,000,400 francs for the department of justice. The
Chamber then formed itself into a Secret Committee, to
deliberate on the treaty with the Zoliverein.
We are assured, that in consequence of the King's
indisposition (announced in y, sterday's illouiteur) his
Majesty's return from Paris may be Somedelayd days.
) A letter from Carlsruhe, of the 21st of December, says,
" The Roman Catholic clergy of the Grand Duchy of
Baden have just addressed a collective petition' to the
Government, requesting it to forbid the plying of steam-
boats on the lake of Constance, and all travelling on the
railway in the Roman Catholic parts of the Grand Duchy
on Sundays and holidays, that the devotions of the
faithful may nut be disturbed." In consequence of this
step the shares in the railiaays and steamers have expe-
rie,:eecl a slight decline.
THE HAGUE, DEC. 28.—T0-day, at two o'clock, the
Minister of Finance went, in the usual form, to the
Second Chamber of the States General, to present the
triennial budget for the years 1846-7.
The Minister, in his speech, entered into highly inte-
resting details respecting the state of our finances. We
are happy to announce that the favourable estimates
respecting our finances have not only been realised, but
that the result has even exceeded all expectations• that
the budget of the expenditure of 1846-7 presents adimi-
nution compared with that of 1844-5 of three millions of
florins, and of nearly five millions compared with that of
1843; that the ways and means proposed to cover the
expenditure of 1846-7 may not only be considered as suf-
' ficient, but that the service of those two years will be
closed with an overplus receipt of 250,000 florins—in a
word, that our financial positicin' is now definitively
brought to a regular and entirely satisfactory state.
THE HAGUE, DEC. 29,—AcCording to the accounts of
the state of our rivers, they were yesterday all frozen
over, and the water was falling. The dykes were every-
where in good condition ; in some places everything was
ready in case any accident should occur.
A letter from Soerabaya of the 21st of August an-
nounces that his Majesty's schooner, the Zephyr, had
arrived in the roads of that town, and had taken troops
on board for an expedition to Borneo and Macassa. This
expedition will take five or six months.
