A Flanders Mail has brought ui, this forenoon,
Papers to the cad instant. We subjoin some extracts :
BRUSSELS, JUNE 18.

This is the glo*tious anniversary of that memorable
day eternally consecrated in the annals of our coun-
try. It was in the plains of Waterloo that the Ge-
nius of Evil expired, and that the chains of Europe
were for ever broken. It was there that new dynasty
destined to confirm our happiness, by securing to us
a wise liberty, equally remote from licentiousness
and despotism, was consolidated on heaps of slain.
This anniversary vas announced yesterday evening
and this morning by the ringing of all the bells; and
at eleven o'clock a solemn Te .Deum was performed

in the church of St. Gadelle, accompanied with all

the pomp suitable to the occasion : all the Civil and
Military Authorities, the Minister of the Interior,
the Governors of Provinces, Scc..Bcc. were present.
This evening there will be an illumination, and on
Monday the patriotic Waterloo Society will go on a
pilgrimage to the field of battle, to visit the manes
of those heroes who cemented by their blood, the in-
dependence of their country and' the liberty of the
world. The fields of Waterloo were the Theimopylz
of Belgium !
Juwa 20.—His Majesty set out this afternoon with
his suite for Maestricht.
Accounts from Madrid, of the sth of this month,
state, that at the end of May there was a general re-
view of all the troops belonging to the Expedition
cdneeted at Cadiz and the environs. This army con-
sists of 18,000 men, who have received orders to be
in readiness to depart. The armament is composed
of eight ships of the line and frigates, a great many
corvettes and gun-boats, and 136 transports. On the
.4th a courier was dispatched from Madrid to the Mi.
nister of Marine at Cadiz.
In a Prussian Journal we find the following ar-
ticle:—• Accounts from Poland say, that a rupture
between Russia and the Porte is there considered to
be very near at hand. The same accounts say, that
it is expected that the Kingdom of Poland will be
shortly enlarged by the incorporation of the ancient
Polish Provinces which are at present united with
R u ssia."

It is said a letter has been received in Town this
morning from L.ord COCHRANE, in which he states,
that he certainly should have attacked the Ammo-
MAMIE frigate, having on board 5,000,000 of dollars,
had he not received express orders from the °merit-
meat of Chili to the contrary.

Yesterday being the day appointed for the private
Christening of the Infant Princess of the Duke and
Duchess Of KENT, preparations were made for the
ceremony at Kensington Palace. The Royal gold
Font was removed from the Tower of London, and
fitted up in the Grand Saloon, with crimson velvet
coverings from the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace,
under the direction of Mr. MASI!, of the Lord Cham-
berlain's Office.
The Members of the Royal Family, and others to

the Duke of KENT, who conducted him into the
Grand Saloon ; and immediately after, the ceremony
