SPANISH PAPERS AND HAMBURGH MAIL

ST. PETERSIIIIRGH, APRIL 12.
It is said that his Majesty the Emperor will very
soon set out for the army. It is probable that his
Majesty will first visit the corps under the com-
mand of General Sackett, whose head-quarters are
still at Mohilow, and then the southern army,
under Count Wittgenstein.
The celebrated traveller Belzoni, who lately ar-
rived herr, is preparing to leave us again. It is
said that he intends to visit the eastern parts of
Russia, Siberia, and Katntschatka.
A cmirier arrived here yesterday from M. de
Tatiacbeff at Vienna. It is said that he bringaiwery
important dispatches. We learn ow hit% positive
iespecting the arrival of M. de Tatischeti himself.

We ought to be better Informed here respecting
political events, and the chances of peace or war,
and perceive every change more quickly than Plot-
where; yet almost the contrary is the case. What
is positively affirmed to-day, is contradicted to-mor-
row. To-day they say hostilities have commenced,
to-morrow they announce the speedy reiurii of the
guards, whose headquarters are still at Minsk.
Thus one report succeed. another. The only thing
we here consider as certain is, that we owe the con-
tinuance of peace entirely to the pacific disposition
of our beloved Emperor.
