Upon this, M.

Perhaps domiciliation, as lubjeCts ot other dates, and the protection ot other mimfters,may not be enough to save them.

Dublin, June 12. Our government has cerminly recei ved intelligence, through various refpee tzblc channels, that (ymtoms of mlur gcncy have mamfefted themklvc# in the counties of KiLiare, Carlow, Wicklow and Wex'ord ; and that the 20th of the prel’ent m nth is the day on which more delperatc measures are expected to be declared. An advertisement of a “ White Her ft intended to be disposed of by public aucli.ui in the Mountains of Wick low,” has appeared in all the provincial papers, and is laid to be a notification of the intended revolt. In our paper of Saturday last, we gave the lubftanceoi the late ail’patches re ccivul trom the Eaft-lnuies.

At fix in the morn ing liia excellency gen. Duroc, grand Matflial of the p:ilace, took the com mand of the palace cf the legislative bo dy. The members of the legislative bo -Idy assembled in grand collume in the hall of their fitting#, at 1 O’clock. The council of date proceeded at 1 o'clock from the palace to the palace of the legislative body, where they were received by a drputation of legis lators. This deputation conducted the members of the council to the places deffined for them. At half pad one, the empress arrived at the palace of the legislative body, accompanied by her Imperial highness the princess Eliza, by her ladies, and the officers of her houle hold., Her majedy was received at the outer door of the palace by the presi dent acd deputation of thirty members of the legislative body, and conducted to the tribune prepared for her. His Ma jetty’s train set out from the palace at two for the palace of the legislative bo dy. His departure was announced by a discharge of artillery. The way through which his train passed wa3 lin ed with troops. The procefiion was ar ranged with the usual pomp and accor ding to the etlablifhed forms, and pre ceded ana followed by a detachment of the French and Italian guards, and by Iquadrons of Mamelukes. His Majes ty’s arrival at the palace of the legisla tive body Was announced by a second difcliarge of artillery. He was recei ved at the outer door by a deputation composed of thirty members of the legis lative body, with the president at their head. The proctffion affcmbled in one of the halls of the palace, whence it proceeded in order to the hall of fitting, where the places were arranged in the following order ; his Majesty the em peror and king on a tkronc ; on his right, his fertne highness prince Eugene in a chair, two Heps lower than the throne; behind his majtfty on the right and left, two colonels, generals of the guard, the grand Marshal of the palace, the grand Major Domo, the grand Al moner and Marshal Moncey; back of the throne the chamberlains and the Freuch and Italian Esquires. The o ther officers of the court were (latiousd according to their rank. Opposite the throne the legiflutors were disposed in a circular form, their president in the cen tre, without any dillin&ion of place, but having two Hate messengers of the legis lative body, one on hi# right the other on his left. Before the legislators fat the council of (late on chairs, half on the right and half on the left. When his majesty was seated ou his thorne, the vvhoie were uncovered. The grand mas ter of the ceremonies took the orders of his majesty. The legdlators, summon ed individually by the chancellor, took | tlie oatb, after which the secretary of Hate read the statutes of the kingdom. | These statutes are eight in number, j The eight respetffs exetufively the ella. ‘ b!i(hment of a military order, under the denomination of The order of the iron Croitftiy and is divided into five titles. The order is to consist of five hundred knights, one hundred commanders, and twenty dignitaries. The motto is to be, “ Dieu me i'a dennee, gore a qui y touche ra.”—Vacancies are to be filled up eve ry year on ascension day. Fjur hundred : tboufand Milanese livres are to be appro priated to the order. Each knight to have 300 livres yearly, each commander 18co, and each dignitary 30CO livres. ’ One hundred thousand livres of this re venue to be let apart for such extraor dinary life pensions as the grand mailer thall think proper to grant to any knight3 commanders, or dignitaries. The king of Italy to be grand mailer, but the emperor and king, Napoleon, in consi deration of being founder, to retain, during his life, exclusively the title and lundlicns of the office. The Statutes were ligned by all the public functiona ries, and directed, by order of the Em peror and king, Napoleon, dated June 6, at his palace of Milan, to be trans mitted into the regifter* of the tribu nab admioiftrative authorities. Prince Eugene then was furotnon<*d by the grand mailer to take tlie oath as viceroy. He made a profound bow to tis majesty, and placed himLlf on his knees, on a cufnion, at the left of the ‘hrone, where, putting his hand on the aospel, he pronounced the following >ath ; “ 1 (wear to be faithful to the con stitution, and to obey the king ; cor L r ‘i my fu V-v.s till ri.r T j (hall receive tlie k ; ’ g’ c’ircdLojis there upon ; and to gi - e up iutmeciiatfly ill> authority with which 1 am’ inverted, to |auy pvrfon that (hall be deputed by him.” His majesty then addrefled the legis lative body, and after alluding to the various objects of internal regulations, which are by no means intcrefting, he proceeded thus ; “ I have neglefled none of the objedts upon which my experience in adminitlra tion could be ufeful to my people of Italy.

However, the French squadrons have since obtained fuccefLs, to which I attach importance only because they must further convince my enemies 6fthe inutility cf a war which affords them nothing to gain, and every thing to lose. The divisions of the flotillas and the fri gates, built at the expense of the finances of my kingdom of Italy, and which at present make a part of the French for ces, have rendered ufeful services in ma ny circumflances.

The firft salutation the master of the President met with on going on boan£ the privateer, was a stroke across the face with a speaking trumpet, from the erm mander, and a threat of ir.ftant death, if he did not discover where the money and other valuables were concealed, ■ While this was paffmg the marauder* were break ing open every’ trunk, lock ri and pack age, in the sloop, two of the people were iron;d, and the rr. dofely guarded, with a cutlass held to his bread.
