11,ILNA. km) Holland , has brodght Papers to the
lib instant. It appears from them that the-birth-
day of kis Prussian MAJISTY (the Sd instant), though
not distinguished, as had been expected, by the pro-
mulgation of a Repretentative Constitution, was ce-
lebrated at Berlin with the 'usual demonstrations of
loyal affection by all classes of inhabitants. On the
subject of the recent failures at Copenhagen, an ar-
ticle from that Capital of the 30th alt. says—" Four
of our greatest mercantile houses have been obliged,
within these few days, to .stop payment. The in-
fluence of their insolvency is very embarrassing to
trade, and will severely affect many houses of less
importance: it is feared that the effects will be very
seriously felt at Hamburgh. As the cause of those
misfortunes the following are mentioned :—The
failure of almost every enterprise to the East and
West Indies, the fluctuations in the course of ex.
change, the sudden withdrawing of capitals which
were formerly advanced to the Merchants, and are
now placed for the payment of interest on cash in
the National Bank. Someof those houses will doubt-
less be able to come to an honourable arrangement ;.
but, nevertheless, may of the oldest and most re-
spected families are reduced to 'great distress by
these events." -
