HOLLAND.
I have before me a series of valuable illustrative documents printed by the Government of the Netherlands, which are too long to introduce here. The movement for abolishing Patents in that country, already referred to on [pages 196-230], was consummated by a striking majority, in the First Chamber, of no less than 29 to 1; the abolition to take effect from 1st January next, existing rights, of course, to be respected.
