THE NETHERLANDS are divided into the
two provinces of Belgium and Holland
Brussels being the capital of the first and
Amsterdam Of the last. Belgium is the
Southern, Holland the Northern. The
Netherlands embrace a territory of 10000
square miles, and number c, l43,000 inhabit-
ants. William ], the present ruler, was pro-
claimed King in 1915; he had been here
tofore, since 1906, Stakeholder of Holland.
The languages used in the two provinces
differ; French being spoken in Belgium.
The union Of the two was one of force
rather than inclination; it being resolved
by the Congress of Sovereigns in 1914; and
no cordiality has existed between the two
provinces. This will explain the fierceness
and brutality with which the Dutch wared
hostility on the Bruxellos. Brussels is a
city Of 700 inhabitants, and is celebrated
for the beauty of its edi6ces and public
walks. This city has been of late wears
place of considerable resort to Enplish
families, and contains several schools. at
tended exclusively by children of English
birth.

FOREIGN ITEMS.

1t is said that the King of the Netherlands is
deeply affected by the melancholy issue of the
attack on Brussels, with respect to which he
had been completely misled by small and
wealthy yet influential party within the city,
who, by urging the employment of force, have
compromised both him and themselves. The
disposition of the Kings mind is stated, there
tore, to be adverse to political union, IN any
form, with the Netherlands, and that he de.
sires to concentrate his means within the an.
Gent territory of his family, leaving his Belgi-
an subjects to pursue whatever course their
present rulers may lead them to.

CHRISTIAN WEIRlcn. We learn from the
last Plttsburg Pa) Gazette, that C. Werlich,
the mail robber, was tried and convicted, dur
ing the last week, before Judge Wilkins, upon
Two indictments, charging him with abstract
ing letters containing money from the mail In
one case he was sentenced to eleven years, and
IN the other case to ten years confinement in tho
western Penltentiary of that State. This case
furnishes striking lesson which ught not 10 be-
lost upon society. This doomed man was en-
gagged for long time in trade. He had amass.
ed considerable property-he was in quite easy
circumstances, and had young family of moth
erless children about hm-to whom tho rood
example and good name of the surviving parent
should have been of the last Importance Thus
situated, the desire seized him, within I2 or IS
months past, of supplanting the incumbent of
petty post office, In small village. Unfor-
tnnately for him, his party politics were of the
rignt sort to secure the qualification of his
wishes. The incumbent was displaeed. and
werlich was appointed. He had the Dayt,t
qualitcatIons to obtain the office but. alas for
him, and his children, he was destitute of the
moral qualities which should have enabled him
TO withstand the ptations-smali though
they were-to which it subjected him. And
The result of this ilI-omoned appointment has
been to carry ruin TO its object He has fallen
from position of comparative respectabiIty-
from positive independence and personal Croe-
dom-trom the household cares and lows of n
rising iamily-and must, in all likelihood, pass
the remainder OF his days in prison Here is.

GERMANY. The Germanic confedera-
ton numbers SO States; not including Aus
trla or Prussia to wit: Kingdoms l
Electorate; 6 Grand Duchies s Duchies !;
ii Principalities l Landgrayeate A Repnb-
lies !; and l Lordship.
The kingdom of Saxony, the most east
erly State of the confederation, and bound
ed by Prussia and Austria, has a territory
OF only 434O square miles being about
third as large as Vermont; and numbers
l 100000 inhabitants. 1t has an army of
$4,000 men. The late ruling prince, King
Anthony, assembled the throne in 1927. His
capital is Dresden, which has been the
scene OF great excuses. This city has
10000 inhabitants, and is famous for a gal
lery of paintings, said to he of unequalled
merit as whole. This gallery, it appears,
has suffered considerably.
The Duchy of Brunswick is central. 1t
has very small extent, not exceeding HOO
square miles, and being smaller than the
State of Rhode Island. 1t has population
OF 242,00O, and Brunswick, city of &c, 600
inhabitants, is the capital. The army con-
sists of 2l00 men. The annual revenue is
about 100000 dollars. The name of the
recent Duke was Charles Frederick, and he
succeeded to the title in 1915.
The London Times thus enumerates the
proyocations which have led to the overthrow
OF this young puppet ofthe Holy Alliance
He has refused to sanction the constitution
given to his States by his uncle and guar

of peace the oppressive taxes which are i'm

cause, and punished them without trial ::
he has disregarded the judgment of the tri-
bunals, and directed their DEGREES to be
torn in pieces and thrown in the faces of
the judges he hasordered the secretary
of correspondence to be violated, and letters
to be opened at the post Office; and while
he. discarded from his service, or banished
from his dominions, the most respectable

was blind shbserviency to his caprices. In

JACKSON AND RANDOLPH. Some think the
most Objectionable part of Mr.. Randolph's
g" fanfaronade" at St Petersburg was his read
ing in public the letters of Mr.. Van Buren, and
the Hero, urging him to go upon the mission,
&c. This may be regarded as breach of
confdence-be this as it may, Mr.. R. has pre-
eedent for it, which, to him, is of the highest
grade. When the hero was on his recent tour
to the West he several times, at his stopping
places, pulled out letter he had received from
Mr. Ramsay of Pennsylvania and read it
aloud, the letter stating that the VEro Mrs.
SAGE had not injured the Generals ponularitv
in Pennsylvania. The General made as much
parade of this letter as the Roanoke Minister
did with his. noble pair, and how admirably
fitted for the stations they hold!
