of the dreadful scene whii.ll we witneSsed. The
idarkness of the night rendered our task extremely
difficult. It vas even dangerous, because many
thousand bombs and grenades had been scattered by
the explosion, and covered the ground, still loaded,
and, before our arrival, fires had been kindled in the
midst of them, to afford light: Happily a heavy-
rain had spoiled the matches. One, however,
caught fire and burnt, but did not explode. Order
was immediately given to put out -all the fires, and
keep only the torches."
It is still reported that M. de Courvoisier retires

TETE HAGUE, DEC. 1.

In our account of the sitting of the Second
Chamber of the States General, on the 26th No-
vember, we gave a brief notice of the receipt of a
message from his Majesty, accompanying a project
of law relative to public instruction. The preamble
states the great difficulty that had been found in
drawing up a plan likely to meet the general wish,
the Government being found not to lose sight of the
obligation imposed upon it by the fundamental law,
to pay constant, attention to public instruction;
while, on the other band, it wished to act on the
principle of giving the -greatest liberty in this mat-
ter. The following are the articles of the proposed

law :

I.—lnstruction is private or public.
ll,—Private instruction given under the superin-
tendance of parents or guardians to the members of
the same family is nat subject to any species of re-
Izul ttion. _ _

instruction is given.
A.—ln establishments founded or maintained
holly or in part by the general, provincial, or local
authorities.
B.—ln establishments founded by viva! e persons
and supported by them without any charge to the

public.- -
C.—By indiv:duals who make it their business to
give instruction to persons of different families.
IV. The instruction given in the first-named esta-
bli•hments will be regulated by us.
V. Every Belgian is at liberty to give instruction
(di►ided iuto lower, middle, and higher), in the tnan-
►:er indicated in B and C, Art. 3, on the following

conditions :

the authorities of the commune, adding—
A.—A statememment of what he proposes to
teach, or cause to be taught.
B. A proof of his capacity shall consist-
1. For the lower instruction, i. e., that given to
children undr twelve years of age, in reading, writing,
arithmetic, and the first elementsof grammar, history,
and geography, in a certificate to be delivered to the
Commission mentioned in Arr. 5, that he possesses
the requisite knowledge in the branches of learning
in which he desires to be examined.

2. For the middle instruction and all such scientific
instruction as is not comprehended in what is called
the higher instruction, either in a certificate like
that required for the lower instruction, or in academic
honours obt&ned in one of the Universities, and
3. For the higher instruction in academic houses
obtained in one of the Universities of the kingdom.
A certificate of good conduct to be given by the
local authorities of the place where he has resided
for the last three years.
VI. There shall be in every province a Commis-
sion of Inquiry, consisting of the Governor and two
Members of the States, to be chosen annually.
VII. Persons who have been sentenced to certain
punishments shall not be allowed to give instruction.
VIII. Before a perzon can exercise tl►e profession
of teacher he must take an oath to the King and

the fundamental law.
IX. Ali establishments of public instruction, with-
out exception, shall he subject to the superintendanee
of the public authorities.
X. No foi-:inner shall establ.sh a school or give
instruction in private houses without our special

licence.
Xl. Every person who has acquired the neces-
sary knowledge, no matter where or by what means,
shall be admitted to examination, and may obtain
the certificates or degrees required for the exercise
of certain profession?.

being authorised as enacted by this law, shall be
punished (besit!es the immediate closing of the
school) by fine of 50 to 100 florins; and on a repe-
tition of the offence of 300 florins.
XIII. The same penalty shall be inflicted on those
who shall go beyond the notice they have given.
XIV. Those who shall teach or suffer to be
taught in their establishments principles contrary to
the oath which they have taken, shall be liable to a
fine of 50/. to 3001, and may even, in cases of at;
aggravated nature, be prohibited from exercising
their profession.
XV. The pnnishment of the misdemeanours, pro-
vided against in the preceding articles, belongs to
:he ordinary tribunals.

The Hamburg Reporter, and the Papers o
the Ist inst. have been received. The Gran(
Duke CONSTANTINE is on his return to War
The following are extracts:—

ODESSA, NOV. 1 i.

His Majesty has a.idre,:sed a rescript to Admiral
Greigh, with the Imperial cipher, to be worn by
him on his epaulettes, as a proof of his Majesty's
satisfaction with the Admiral's zeal and exertions
in the late campaign.

DRESDEV, NOV. 25.

The Grand Duke CoustaLtine and the Princess

on the 23d, to return to Warsaw.
HAMBURG, NOV. 30.

One of our Papers say c, " General Santander has
returned to Hamburg from a ►•isit to Paris and
London." We can say, on good authority, that the
General hus not left Hamburg since he arrived here
last month, but that he intends to set out in a few
days on a journey to Paris and London.
' HAMBURG, DEC. 1.

By the return of the frost, the Sir E. Banks
steam-boat to London, has been again hindered from
leaving the city this morning.
(The St. Petersburg Journals from the 15th to

notice whatever of the Emperor's inn( ss, not even
the bulletins published by the Prussian States
Gazelle.)
BORSoN-Ii AUX, FOUR O'CLOCK.—The anxiety
awakened by the last advices from St. Petersburg,
acted unfavourably upon the funds this morning,
which, however, recovered in sotre measure to-
wards the close of the day, owing to orders to buy
having been received by several houses here from
their foreign correspondents. At the quotations
there is now much money. Bills on London, and
Parts are in demand.
