DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL.
AMSTERDAM, OCT. 22.—A person (said to be an
English missionary) went in a vigilante to the Bree-
straat inhabited by the Jews, and distributed papers
in the Hebrew and. English languages, the object of
which was to convert the Israelites to Christianity.
The missionary was, however, not well received, and
was obliged to take flight. We believe that we may
affirm that this Englishman has already left the city.
THE HAGUE, OCT. 21.—We learn that the Con-
vention with Belgium was signed, the day before
yesterday, by the respective Plenipotentiaries, so that
it now wants only the ratification, to make it binding
on the two Governments. We learn, also, that his
Excellency the Minister of Finance set out yesterday
for Berlin, in order to arrange, with King William
Frederick, some points connected with it, in which
the General Society, founded at Brussels for the en-
couragement of the national manufactures, is inter-
ested. The absence of the Minister will be very
short ; and immediately on his return, the treaties
will be formally signed.
THE HAGUE, OCT. 22.—There is no foundation for
the report gven in some foreign journals, of a pro-
jected marriage between one of the Dutch Princes
and a French Princess.
The Committee for drawing up the address brought
it up to-day at two o'clock ;it was referred to the
Sections, which will probably examine it on Monday.
BRUSSELS. OCT. 24.—We learn by a letter from
Verviers of the 18th of October, that it appears, from
experiments recently made, that the hectolitre of
wheat, of the harvest of 1842, gives 8 kilogrammes
(161b5.) of bread more than that of 1841; and that
rye gives 141 kilogrammes per hectolitre more than
last year. A considerable reduction in the price of
bread has taken place in consequence.
M. Nothomb paid a visit yesterday evening to M.
Olozaga, the Spanish Envoy, who, as we hear, will
shortly return to Paris, where he will wait for the
answer of his Government respecting the treaty of
commerce between Belgium and Spain.
OCT. 25.—We are assured that at the opening of
the session the Cabinet will present to the Chambers,
for their ratification, the contract with Messrs. Roths-
child for the loan of 29,250,000 francs.
The clerks in the several departments have been
much employed for some days past in preparing the
documents for the budget of 1843, which is nearly
completed. It is said that there will be a deficiency
of ten millions in the budget of 1842.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 26.
IN RE SAMUEL ASKELL.
The bankrupt in this case had carried on an exten-
sive business as a warehouse and Manchester
merchant. The amount of debts and liabilities as
stated in his schedule exceeded 47,0001., of which
24,0001. were described as without consideration, and
nearly. 10,0001. upon accommodation bills. It was cal-
culated that the assets, so far as the assignees had yet
realised them would afford about 4s. in the pound.
Proofs to the amount of 3,0871. were admitted with-
out opposition. Upon one, on a bill of exchange for
1901. being tendered, the solicitor for the fiat objected
to its admission on the grounds that the creditor (Mr.
James) became possessed of it without consideration.
After considerable discussion the further consideration
of this claim was ordered to stand adjourned to the
day appointed for the next audit.

METHOD OF STOPPING BLEED'
IN G FROM THE NOSE.

THE MA

(By Dr. NEGRIER, of Angicrs.)
The following case, being one of those reported by
the author, will show his method of proceeding : ,
.kerm, 1839.—A chimney-sweep, aged 14, had
already lost 200 grammes (six ounces) of blood from
the right nostril. The blood was still flowing very
fast. I had the boy placed with his head high ; then, ,
with the forefinger of the left hand, I compress'd the
nostril from which the blood was flowing; while doing
this 1 made him lift up his right arm perpendicularly,
telling him to keep it so for two minutes ; the haemor. -
rhage had stopped in ten seconds.
M. Negrier relates three other cases, quite ,similar.
The following fact induced him to try the plan :
" Some years ago," says M. Negrier,
" cut
myself under the nose while shaving. The blood
flowed copiously from this petty wound, and I
could not • stop it, either with court plaster a by.
cauterising with the nitrate of silver. By chance,
however, I lifted up both my arms at once to
reach something, and I saw, to my great stir..
prise, that the flow of blood, which was copious
I
just before, immediately stopped. I lowered my arms,
and the haemorrhage began again ; I again lifted them
up, and again the blood immediately stopped. In this
way I renewed and stopped the flow five or six times,
in order to convince myself perfectly that the sudden
raising of the arms was really the cause of the suspeh', •
sion of the haemorrhage: Lastly, I kept my armsraised
for • one or two minutes ; and during this period
Pal
plastic crust formed upon the cut, which put afi
stop to the haemorrhage."—Medical Gazette.
