[REUTER'S TELEGRAM.]
PLYMOUTH, June 28.
The Union Company's steamer Cambrian, with
the above mails, has arrived here. The Cambrian
left Cape Town on the 22d ult., calling at St..
Helena on the Ist, and at Ascension on the 6th inst.
She brings 77 passengers, and 141 military invalids
and time-expired men, with 12 women and 16
children. At the Cape great excitement was
caused by the issue of a notice that importers re-
leasing goods from bond must give an undertaking
to pay any additional duty which might be
approved of by Parliament.
Parliament had since passed an act increming
the impost duties by 25 par cent. The validity of
these proceedings i called into question.
