that in the General Committee of the Second ChaiOber
on Tuesday there was a debate on the answer as the
King's speech, in which that part of theipeech was par-
ticularly noticed, in which his Majesty announced the
conclusion of the treaty with the Pope, and the reserva-
tion under which he had allowed of the publication of
the Papal Bull.
If we are well informed, the Chamber expressed a
hope that his Majesty would persist in the maintenance

of the reservation, and that the maintenance of the fun-
damental law •telative to public instruction will be
strictly enforced. Every well disposed citizen of the
Netherlands will immediately approve of the anxiety
of the Chamber on a point of such importante; at the
same time nobody who is acquainted with the firmness
of the Xing 's character, can eta to be convinced that his
Majesty's persunal sentiments and judgment pre a pledge
that he will never lose sight of the mown, and of the
enactments of the fundamental law.--Dutch Papers,

The Quntidienne cnntiins the following extract from
a letter, dated Frankforr.on-the•Maine, October 18 :-
44 A peculiar circumstance has occurred which redoubles
the interest inspired by the young Portuguese Prince.
It is said that he is captivated by the charms, of the
Princess Mary of Wu, gckid, that the young
Maass is' not iniefhibie of the sentiments which she has
inspired, and that both have been greatly annoyed by the
Emperor Don Pedro's demand of the Princess's hand.
If love alone should decide in this rivalry, the Infant
will triumph over his brother; but policy; it is said,
will oppose tfie desires of the noble Infant and the Prin-
cess. This incident is the cause, and perhaps the only
one, of the prolonged stay of the Infant et Vienna for
it embarrasses equally the Court of Austria and that of
Munich."

The parakraph which stated that the present Earl

Bishop of Winchester, were brothers • the late Earl of GUILDFORD
