The export duty remains the

who stopped travellers and committed great enormities. An

article from Carlsruhe states that the numerous arrests which
have taken place for. some time in Bavaria, have been on the
btheegi:
ground of a connection between the individuals imprisoned,
some of whom are of high rank, fortune, and education, and
a band of robbers, said to be of immense extent and ancient
origin. It is more likely, however, that the pretended band is
a political association, whose members are branded with the
name robbers of in order to deprive them of the contagious
sympathy of the people.

The Duchess of CLARENCE paid a visit yester-
day to the Duchess of KEMT at her residence at
Kensington.
Yesterday a steam boat, purchased for the
King of DENMARK, and most splendidly deco-
rated and furnished, sailed from the river for
Copenhagen, in which his MAJESTY and family
are to embark to visit Jutland and other places
in the course of the summer. It is maimed by
British seamen, with a Captain of the Danish
navy, and accompanied by Mr. GlLLEsers:, a
Scotch Engineer, to superintend the machinery.
ARGYLL Rooms.---The Masquerade at these
Rooms, last night,which are peculiarly well adapted
for such an entertainment, was very well attended,
as it was understood to be the last of the season.
The boxes were full of spectators. There was
an amusing variety of characters, and some were
well supported. The supper was good and abun-
dant, and 'WRIGHT supported his reputation by
the quality of his wines, which were consumed
in large quantities. The company seemed likely
to keep up the ball till a very late hour.
Now, that the Last Drawing Day of the last
Lottery contracted for is so near, (Saturday,22d
of May), curiosity is on the tiptoe to ascertain
whether, after all, Government will really con-
tinue so productive a tax, especially as it is a
voluntary one, and there are so ninny of a com-
pulsory nature which they are constantly impor-
tuned to give up. Whatever may be the result,
Mr. SIVEWRIGHT has given a splendid proof of
what may be effected by judicious Schemes, for
the public have purchased more than in any of
the last fifty Lotteries, and the few Tickets and
Shares that now remain, will no doubt find

The Royal free pardon has been granted to

They were decently clothed previous to their

SECOND EDITION.

We are enabled to state that the Ex-Emperor

rIIittUIDI, after ha►ing privately left this coon-

ry, has sailed from a French port for Peru and

Mexico, with the view of joining the Royalist

forces! llis Ex-Imperial Majesty has been pro..

Tided with a large sam of money and with the dis-

posal of numerous orders., decorations, and other
favours and rewards from the King of SPAIN, to be

bestowed upon the adherents to the cause of the

Mother Country in South America, and on the
leading men who may hove been, or may here-

after be, by the irresistible arguments of modern

diplomacy, prevailed upon to abandon the pa-.

riotic Mies ITUIBIDE liar a powerful party

ii Mexico, and events oT great importance

will develope themselves there soon after his
arrival. The greatest apprehensions may now
be rationally entertained for South American

udependence ; and it is much to be feared

hat sooner or later we iball have a corn-

plete blowing up of the Stock of the new
Governments in that quarter of the world. We

have done our best to dissipate the existing delu-
sion; Spain will undoubtedly succeed in obtaining

another loan, and it is equally undoubted that the

whole of its amount will be employed against

South America. Even without the recognition, of

he Constitutional Bonds, Capitalists have been

found sufficiently regardless of their own interests

to lend money to the Royal Spanish Govern-1
meats,--our last edvices from Paris inform-
ing us that many real bargains have been
done there iu GUEBUARD'S loan at so high
a price as 651!—Under all these circumstances,
it is of course impossible to expect that England
should now be precipitate in recognizing the in-
dependence of any of the new Republics, and
indeed, independent of the risk of the whole of
the States being re-subjected to the Mother
Coantry, their recognition by England at this
critical moment would be considered as little less
than a declaration of war, by tl►e continent of
Europe.
