DEATH OF THE QUEEN OF THE NETlIERLANDs.-Extra. ordinary Supplement to the Netherlands Staats-Courant, Thursday, Oct. 12.—THE HAGUE, OCTOBER 12.—It HAS pleased Divine Providence to take to itself her Majesty the Queen at a quarter before one o'clock this day. During the latter part of her Majesty's residence at the Loo she suffered from a progressive decay of strength, which, however,did not hinder her Majesty from returning to this place on the 4th of this month; but her strength continued to decline, and after havIng, especIally yesterday evening, rapidly grown worse, her Majesty expired without pain. Queen Frederica Louisa Wilhelmina was a daughter of Frederick William II., King of Prussia. Her Majesty was born on the 18th of October, 1774, and married to the King on the 1st of October, 1791. The affairs of Hanover do not bid fair to be arranged amicably, according to the account of our Frankfort corre- spondent. The Augsburg Gazette regards it under an equally gloomy aspect. It sees great obstacles in King Ernest's way of in anywise getting out of the difficulty into which ho has thrust him>elf. The pies eat Estates, if called together, will not consent to modify the constitution, or come to terms on the subject of the fundamental law, which they have no right to set aside. The Gazette of Augsburg then puts the supposition that the King convokes the Chambers after the constitution of 1819. But will the corporations elect? asks the Gazette; or, if they do elect, may not the members meet merely to declare their assem- bly illegal and without authority? In the meantime things cannot rest as they are; for all constitutions agree in the principle that revenue cannot be raised without a yearly vote. The Augsburg Gazette is evidently of opinion that the Diet must interfere. King Ernest has merely sus- pended and adjourned the question, by which he has satis- fied no one, neither his own people, nor the King of Prus- sia, nor the Austrian Court. He hoped to excite the inte- rest of these potentates by raising the outcry that republican refugees from and in Switzerland were about to raise an insurrection in Hanover. But no one believed King Ernest or his Government, and the blundering artifice failed. What this Prince of Tories will do next we are curious to learn.— Evening Chronicle. THE AMERICAN MARKETS.—It affords us pleasure to be able to announce that a decided improvement has taken place in the Money Market since our last. The discounts and issues of the banks have greatly diminished, while those institutions are every day becoming in a better con- dition for the resumption of specie payments. They will, no doubt, be ready to resume the moment a period may be designated for that purpose. Their amount of specie on hand in Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Baltimore, and New Orleans is liberal, while their amount of circula- tion has been greatly curtailed since the suspension. We have said that the Money Market is much easier; and nothing more clearly illustrates this fact than the rate at which Treasury drafts are now selling, vit., I ,If per cent, above par. Specie also, it will be observed, has fallen to five per cent. and foet and a half premium; while we are assured, by those who have paid considerable attention to the subject, that the exports of this article have, notwith- standing all the, noise that has been made, not very mate- rially exceeded the imports. Stocks, too, have advanced a shade; and thus the general aspect of affairs is better and brighter. Business is still exceedingly dull, when compared with former seasons, but the clouds are breaking away, and by the spring at least the sunshine of prosperity will once more beam down upon this country. NAPLES, SEPT. 28.—A thousand conjectures have arisen from the wholly unexpected orders yesterday given to the Marine Department, for sending with all speed to Messina a frigate which is fitting out with the greatest alacrity, and for embarking troops, artillery, cannon-balls, &c., on board two of the large steam-boats belonging to the royal navy, which are now in the arsenal. Tranquillity is by no means so fully restored in Sicily as the government would have it believed. It is reported that the cholera has broken out in Messina; others pretend that the equipment of the little ilotilla is on account of the appearance of a corsair that is cruising in those seas; others again say that a French fleet is coming! We took with anxiety for the next news from Sicily, especially from Messina. NAPLES, SEPT. 30.—The late report of the coroim; of a "F.rench fleet was verified on the 28ih in the evening by the appearance of three ships, each of 92 guns, which cast au- chor,jn our road; their appearance excited ngjtjonly the attention but the apprehensions of the people*«on aecouirt of the commercial disputes between the two governments, and the state of affairs in Sicily, particularly as they did not fire the usual salute, but placed themselves in order of battle before the city. It was affirmed that another divi- sion had anchored in the Bay of Baia, and that more ships are off Capri. The object of the enemy was the great subject of conversation on 'Change; the prices of stocks and of produce fell; the King called a council of minis- ters, which sat till late at night; troops and ammunition were sent to the forts, cannon planted on the quay, &c. There are various opinions on the cause of all this most think that the French government thought to enforce its demands on ours respecting the commercial disputes; and the object seems to be attained, as the ships have sailed as they came, viz., without saluting. Many think they only came to take in fresh water.—P.S. The French ships have left the road, but not the gulf. It is said this evening, that they are come to declare to our government, in con- cert with England, that both states formally protest against the interference of a foreign power, whatever may happen; as they (qy. both ?) also observed neutrality in Spain.- Supplement to Allgemeine Zeitung, Oct. 11. A letter from the neighbourhood of Ajmeer, in Upper India, dated June 14, says, in reference to the report that the plague was devastating that country, I dare say the good folks in England who have friends in this country will be under much apprehension when they read the alarming accounts which the editors of the Calcutta and Bombay papers have published regarding the plague which is said to be raging about this place; the said editors have all the plague for aught we know, for we have no plague here, though every inquiry has been instituted to ascertain if such a scourge of the human race has made its appear- ance, and not a single instance can be found; we have severe fevers, and where deaths have arisen therefrom, such have happened entirely from the want of medical treatment; but even those fevers have now disappeared for some weeks."

IMPORTANT TO CLAIMANTS.—At the Ludlow registra- tion revision, the barrister held the insertion of the initials, without one christian name at least, to be a sufficient ground for rejecting a claim. TRADE OF THE TYNE.-It was stated in the report of the Finance Committee to the Council, as given in our last, that the coal trade of the port had increased one- fourth, in the corporate year ending 31st of August, over the year ending at the same period in 1836; and we are happy in being now enabled to add that a still greater in- crease has taken place in the trade of the port. In the quarter ending the 5th of October, 1834, the number of vessels cleared for foreign ports with cargoes was 497; in 1835, 631 in 1836, 837; and during the same period in 1837 no fewer than 1019, being an increase of more than double in the short space of three years.— Newcastle Chronicle. We regret to say that trade is again much flatter this week. The President's message seems to have had a damping effect upon almost every branch. On Thursday there was hardly anything doing in Manchester. Holders are in general unwitting to come down so long as things remain undecided; and buyers, for the same reason, are unwilling to make purchases without a reduction. The condition of the hand-loom weavers in this town continues to improve very little. It is true there are but few of them out of employment, but the work they have is of a much inferior sort. Many of those who could formerly procure employment at some of the better-paid descrip- tions of fancy muslin are now forced to content themselves with plain work, which, as it comes most directly in com- petition with the power-loom, and requires the least exer- cise of ingenuity, is always the worst paid.-Bolton Free Press. LANDLORD AND TENANT—VANE LONDONDERRY.— There was an agricultural dinner lately at Newtownards, at which the Marquess of Londonderry presided, and to which he managed to give a political complexion. He abused O'Connell and praised Crawford because, as he said, the latter convicted the agitator out of his own mouth. He denied that either in England or Ireland he had me- naced his tenantry; but he admitted that "he certainly did wish them to follow his own political course and ad. vice; and if they thought proper to adopt a different one, he saw nothing improper in endeavouring to find out who were his friends and who his opponents. It could not be expected, while he considered himself bound to bestow suitable favours, on occasion, on those who stood by him in an emergency, that he should not, when opportunity served, take the liberty of withholding those favours from those who refused to assent to his opinions. In fact, he thought himself justified in dissevering all friendly connec- tion with such individuals as the laClt named." He added that no one could absurdly expect a favour from him when there was no reciprocal benefir conferred. The reciprocal benefit being of course a sacrifice of conscience,

IJo¡.øtft > BRIGHTON, SUNDAY.—The Queen, who for the last few days has been troubled with a cold and sore throat, is, we are happy to state, now quite well, but has not yet been out. Dr. Clarke, her Majesty's physician, arrived at the Pavilion on Friday night, but has returned to town this afternoon.—The Duchess of Kent took a carriage airing yesterday afternoon, accompanied by Lady M. Stopford, to Rottingdean; and the Hon. Mrs. Brand and Miss Paget also drove out in a pony chaise. THE QUEEN'S CLEMEKCT.—HerMajesty has just or- dered the release of some qrown ^raObers confined in Ap- pleby gaol, who must otherwise have probably remained incarcerated for life. 41' AWFULLY SUODEW DEATH.—-Samuel Wilde, Esq., of Runcorn, the principal agent for the Old Quay Company, arrived at the George Inn, Bridge-street, Warrington, in his gig, about eleven o'clock in the morning of JfefekSay se'nnigbt, apparently in good health. He soon after went to the stable, in order to have his horse fed he asked the ostler several questions, artd told<^W» that his business io town would not detain him taorr lhao three hours, and requested that the horse Aright be in readiness about that time. He returned to thtcomtnercial-roora, and a traveller observed him put his head on his hand, as he sat at the side table; heard a groan—ran to the bar for assistance, and when they came, Mr. Wilde was dead Surgipal aid was immediately called, but in vain-the spark of life was extinct. It is supposed his death was from ossification of the heart: and was more awfully sudden, as he had been for some time in better health than usual; indeed, the morning he left Runcorn, he so expressed himself to his family, as he had eaten a very hearty breakfast. The day following a coroner's inquest was held upon the body, and a verdict of Died by the visitation of God returned by the jury. MURDER OF THE GOVERNOR OF PRESTWICH WORIL- HOUSE.—We mentioned in The Guardian of the 9th ult. that Mr. Jonathan Fielding, governor of Prestwich work- house, had been struck on the head with a drying-iron by one of the paupers. We are sorry to state that he died yesterday; never having spoken since the violence inflicted on him. An inquest will be held on the body this day. Dennerly, the murderer, is at present confined in the New Bailey; and, it is said, appears to be insane.-Manches. G. DETERMINED SUICIDE. -Wednesday se'nnight after- noon, about four o'clock, the passengers on Blackfriars- bridge were much alarmed by the following dreadful oc- currence: A person of gentlemanly appearance and dressed in black was observed to mount the balustrades of one of the arches of the bridge on the Temple side, and suddenly to precipitate himself off the parapet into the river. At the time of the dreadful occuirence there were two steamboats passing in opposite directions, whose pad- dies were immediately stopped, with a view to render assistance, in conjunction with several boats which had put off from both sides of the river. Drags were used, and every exertion made to recover the deceased, but in vain, and up to a late hour his body had not been found. No clue has as yet been obtained as to who the deceased was, or the cause that led him to the committal of so rash and fatal an act. REPRIEVE OF ANN SEMPLE.—Thursday morning dis- patches were received from the Home-office by the magis- trates of Paisley, intimating that the case of William Perrie, at present under sentence of death there, was one which Lord John Russell, after consideration, could not recom- mend to the mercy of the Crown, and that the case of Ann Semple was under consideration. Friday morning a se- cond dispatch regarding Ann Semple was received, respiting the execution of her sentence for eight days. The favourabte aspect in which the case of this poor weak- minded creature seems to be viewed by her Majesty's go- vernment, has diffused very general satisfaction throughout the town of Pa sley.-Caledonian Mercury. On Friday, the 13th inst., a meeting of the inhabitants of Worcester was held at the Guildhall, for the purpose of petitioning against the return of the present members for the city, and also to enter into a resolution to support T. Turton, Esq. (the son of Sir Thomas Turton, Bart.) and Col.Davies, in the event of the House of Commons setting aside the election. After Mr. Turton and several otheis had addressed the meeting, a string of resolutions to the A above effect, and a petition against the sitting me<(flt) £ rs, were carried.— Witrcester Journal.. In the neighbourhood of Bridport canine mad|tf«i>3jjij^ been very prevalent, and its effects singularly destr^fivieT to the animal creation. One farmer atone has beetf^ pelted to kill 20 sheep in consequence of their having ex- hibited signs of madness; and on the following market day the butchers were, from the same cause, unable to dispose of their mutton. On Thursday last the body of the Rev. John Gill, mi- nister of the Methodist Chapel at Ulverstone, was found with his head nearly severed from his body. The unfortu- nate man had cut his throat in the most dreadful manner with a penknife, which was lying by his side. At the in. quest on Saturday a verdict of "Temporary Insanity" was returned.-Cutnberland Pacquet. On Saturday, the 7th inst, the Wisbeach mail, while changing horses ai March, the coachman and guard having gone into the booking-office for refreshment and only the ostler standing by, when about to start, the horses set off at full speed, and the ostler, in trying to stop them, was thrown down and his leg broken. After this the horses continued their course to Wisbeach, a distance of fourteen miles, and arrived there in safety without any driver what- ever. One female passenger was inside, and escaped with- out injury. SEVERN N AVIGATION.-The Provisional Committee appointed at the last meeting have, we understand, found it impracticable in the present state of the money-market to raise the capital which would be necessary to carry into effect a scheme for twelve feet of water, capable of bringing sea-borne vessels to Worcester. A plan of a lesser depth must therefore be devised, if the shareholders mean to pro- secute the improvements, and not abandon them to other parties.- Worcester Journal.—A public meeting took place at Worcest r, at which the Provisional Committee, after reciting the above facts, recommend in their report that the improvement shall be limited to a depth of six feet six inches to Worcester and six feet to Stourport only, and such recommendation having been adopted by the meeting, the formation of a new company for carrying it into effect was resolved upon, and 1200 share$ towards the required capital immediately subscribed for. TARF VALE RAI t,wty.-An inquisition was held at the Angel Inn, in the town of Cardiff, on Thursday last, before the Sheriff of this county and a respectable jury, for the purpose of assessing the value of some premises required for the railway. The first case was that nB^ve houses, gardens, and yards, at Newbridge, the property of Mr. J, hn-William,, which he had valued to the company at the rate of.EMOO. Mr. Williams had been offered by the company at the rate of S-500 for it. After hearing wit- nesses on both sides, the jury assessed the value at £ 420. -The next case related to some coppice wood, the pro- perty of W. Wills, Esq. For this property, the company had tendered £ 100, which was refused, and the jury as- sessed the value at £ 90. In consequence of the amount awarded being less than the sum offered, the party will, under the Railway Act, be liable to pay half the costs of the inquisition, witnesses, &c.—Merthyr Guardian. DISCOVERY OF A COAL PIT.-The late unfortunate event in Mr. Curwen's coal mine, at Workington, is about to be in some measure compensated to the survivors, by the dis- covery of a pit containing beds five feet three and a half inches thick, independent of the metals, and which have been pronounced to be of the finest description of coal. The discovery having been made on the 91st birth-day of Mr. Curwen's relation, Mrs. Hamilton, the pits have been named after that lady.-Cumberlond Packet. CHESTER OCTOBER CHEESE AND HORSE FAIR.—This fair has taken place. In the hall a good supply of cheese was pitched, which sold at reduced prices, as compared with last year. Good Cheshire cheese brought from 65s to 68s per cwt. Inferior qualities at from 60s to 62s. We may remark that in the morning, so anxious were a few sellers to dispose of their cheese, a quantity sold at 55s, which brought in the evening 64s when resold. In the Horse Fair, on Tuesday, the show of horses was excellent, but purchasers were shy. Prices rather low. There was a good show of young cattle. Prices moderate. Pigs ex- traordinarily plentiful, and prices unusually high. OUTRAGEOUS Ass AU LT.-In the Revising Barristers* court yesterday no very friendly feeling was exhibited by the freemen towards Mr. Knipe, who signed the notices of objection on behalf of the Reform Association. We are sorry to state that these worthies did not confine the ex- pression of their hostility to mere words. On his way out of court in the evening, Mr. Knipe was attacked in the passage leading to the magistrates' room by several of them, who kicked, struck, and abused him in a most shameful and cowardly manner, while some better dressed ruffians were actually encouraging them in their brutality. Mr. Knipe was rescued with some difficulty and no little dan- ger by Halsall, the constable, who threw his arms around him to protect him from the blows^nd kicks of his cow- ardly assailants. We hope that such of the ruffians as can be identified will not be suffered to go without their do. serts,-Liverpool Mcrcur y,
