took place during the risidence of the Qtteen of
England at Carlsruhe, it may be interesting to
know vvhat is slid in Carlshrue itself on th.lt sub-
ject. Before the arrival of the Queen, apartments
were taken for her at the llcar Inn. The postil-
limp:, however, drove her, without ceremony, to
the Post. Moreover, it is customary in this, mid
all other respectable inns of the country,. that wait-
ers,
not females, should attend on the guests.— Ile
maids have merely to clean out the roma and to
attend the beds, and it would never into the head
of any maid to enter an apartment while the guests
were in it. If Mrs. Kress did this, she must have
received particular instructions for that purpose.
Two chamberlains were appointed to attend the
Queen during her stay here, and they wero with
her the greatest part of the day. The hour when
Kress t:ives out that she surprised her in her room,
was that of the Ore* at Court, and the Queen was
present in it. The chamhulains in attendance on
ner must have hcen hest 'dile to clear up this point.
There are still liatOishmen at Carlsrulte in giElit of
witnesses to con:irm the tlextrity and sincerity of
Madame Kress, and. others who are seeking fir
witm,ssei a 1; tit • her. Will it at last be necessary
to have witnesses again for all there witnevses ? "
The Conseiniiminci of Friday last contains the
following article, dated Carlsrulte, Oct. 13:—

The trial of the Queen of England occupies,
at this place, a number of individuals, particularly
since a knowlcdge 'of the importace which the agents
of the crown have pointed out to the Parliament as
attaching to the evidence of Barbara Kress. Certain
it is that there have been here, for some time, seve-
ral Englishmen, some of whom apne.ir to be sent to
procure testimonials in favour of' the woman Kress;
and others to collect evidence to impeach the crelit
of that witness. Many individuals are brought to
this place from the viciuity, and different parts of
the surremeling country, fin' examination. It dues
not appear that our Government interferes is the
businces. NVe are :Assured that Baron d'Ende,
Chamberlain to the Grand Duke, has been repeat-
edly i.rged to repair to Lindon, and that it has been
let entirely to his own opihm to go or stay.—
The Baron had been attached, by order of his
master, to the person of the Queen during her resi-
dence in this town, end he scarcely ever quitted her.
It is a matter of public notoriety' here, that at the
hour specified by Knes, as the occasion ou which she
surprised the Queen tele a tele with Bergami, there
was a reception at Court, at which her Majesty was
present. This is an alibi which could easily be
proved. We feel it our duty, moreover, to observe,
that in no inn of respectability arc the guests
attended in their a; artments by the chambermaids
(file d'auberge). That service is invariable per-
formed by butlers or chambermaids (s3ininelleres). It
is, thereffire, difficult to make out how this Barbara
Kress, a waiting-maid, at the poi.ting inn, could
contrive to introduce herself into the Queen's cham-
ber while her Majesty remained in it, more eve-
chilly as Barbara Kress hail no business and no
pretext whatever fbr being there. .These are the
observations which are made in this place on the
evidence of that woman."

A nicvious curre:pondenee laud taken place with the
Spanish General, on which the Lloyd Ga:Me males
the tb'lowing observation :—" The Spanish nation
has held out the olive-branch to the Spanish Ante-
ricans. They have, in return, put themselves in
high estate, diAlainfully rejected all overtures far
re-union and peace, and replied to the letters trans-
mitted to them with scoffing and abuse." The
Patriot troops were preparing to attack Santa
findini7 Carthagena, which pldee had been
suppled with rrovisions, too strong. For the de-
e awe of the above two points, the Ceres, 28 guns;
Ferntando, 20; anti Mario Francia :a, 9.4, were
expected from 1-lavannah ; and it was stated several
other vegsels from Spain had already arrived at
Porto Rico.
