The Paris Journals of Wednesday

contents, with the exception of the two
following paragraphs, are uninteresting.
“ All the letters received from Italy
confirm the march of the Neapolitans a-
g -inst Rome, nnd the welcome reception
they there met with. It appears that
their presence has produced an impor
tant effect in the Roman states, nnd that
it is their intention, on retreating to de
stroy the dykes ofthe Pontine Marshes.”
The Marquis ofLnnsdoivn made his
promised motion last night in the House
of Lords, upon the subject of the war
now waged by Austria against the Inde
pendence of Naples. The purport of
the motion being to pledge the British
(government to defend Naples against the
cruel aggression of her enemies, it was
opposed by Earl Bathurst, on the part of
the Ministers, as inconsistent with the
spirit of that neutrality which they con
ceived it to l>e the interest of this country
to pursue. Several other Noble Lords
delivered their opinions upon the ques
lion, niter which the House divided,
when there appear'd—for the motion 37
—against it 84—majority 47.
NAPLES—At a late hour last night,

‘I The pe raanent Deputation, to tlio People of
„ . the hvo Sicilies :
A letter from Lay bach, dated Jan. 28,
addressed by the king to the Prince Re
gent, and confidentially communicated by
his Royal Highness to the Permanent
Deputation, impose on the Deputation
the necessity of convoking the Parlia
ment Extraordinary, (according to the
form which the Constitution prescribed
to the Prince Regent,) in order to decide
tipon such measures as the dignity and
honor of the Neapolitan nation require.
Th? calmness and firmness which the na
tion displayed on the reception ofthe be
fore mentioned letter, were sentiments
suitable to a free people ; to a people
which has sworn to a Constitution in con-
•yunction with its King. This calmness
anti this firmness will battle the insidious
projects of those whose sole object is to
deceive the nation anti scatter about
firebrands of civil war ; but the national
•glorv will no longer be the victim of ca
lumny and oppression.

.National Parliament Extraordinary.
Presidency of M. Jr Chevnllei- Guilts.
Silting of Felt. 13, 1821.
It is impossible to express the joy
which the extraordinary meeting ol the
Parliament has excited among the people.
The great street of Toledo was lined
with detachment# of the brave guard of
safety, and regular troops.
Salvos of artillery announced the de
parture from tbe palace of his R. H. our
a lured prince royal, iml of his august
family. 11 is appearance produced the
most lively enthusiasm, & cries of “ long
ive the Prince,” “ the Constitution for
ever,” rung lo the very skies.
On the arrival of the Prince in the
Hall of the National Parliament, where
(lie galleries were crowded with respec
table citizens, bis R. H. pronounced
the following royal discourse :
Gentlemen Representatives—When
1 closed your late extraordinary Session,
1 announced to you that I might perhaps
be under the necessity of convoking an
extraordinary Session of Parliament as
authorized by the Constitution. That'
moment is now arrived, wherein with
true satisfaction I sec myself again sur
rounded by the Representative* of the
Nation. You arc called upon tit this
crisis to take into your consideration the
most important subject which has ever
been presented lo it.
Ever faithful to the principles which I
have professed, ever resolute to stand
constantly united with my countrymen, 1
took care to keep the Permanent Depu
tation regularly informed of whatever
news we received, if of such n nature as
to instruct the public. 1 have also just
commanded the Minister of Foreign Af
fairs to give you an exact and detailed
report of his mission, bolh as to what re
gards the resolutions taken tit the Con
gress of Laybnch, ef which you areal-
ready apprized, and to what concerns our
political condition, especially the rela
tions in which vve stand with diflerent
foreign powers,
1 have in the same manner directed
the other Ministers to afford you all the
explanations you can desire, or which
can convey to you the most precise know
ledge of our position, as well in what re
lates to the war and marine department*,
as to that of the public finance*.
I arn persuaded that wisdom and mo
deration will animate your dienssions in
a matter of this immense importance,
which involves the honor and happiness
of the whole people, objects no less dear
to my heart than to that of every good
citizen, since I have rivetted so closely
my own interests to these of the nation
itself.
The distinguished conduct which you
have hitherto pursued iu till the mea
sures that have been adopted, gives me
a powerful guarantee that you will now
more than ever acknowledge for your
guide* the national honor, respect for
the throne, and for public order.
Parliament, l am sure will be ready to
grant me for their maintenance, all the
means which are at the disposal of the
Legislative Power, and which may he
best adapted to the exigency of those aw-
fil circumstances in which we are plac
ed. Let us take prudent, vigorous, and
considerate measures—and ns for me,
always faithful to toy oath, I shall congra
tulate myself on being in the midst of a
nation which ceases not on every occa-
siouto manifest towards me its affection
ate sentiments.”
The President answered in tlic fol
lowing terms :—
‘ Your Royal Highness—Polished & ci
vilized communities are doubtless they,
who, rising above the other nations
which cover the surface of the earth,
love those laws and constitutions which
secure their tranquility, their industry,
and their enjoyment of the arts and sci
ences by which they are distinguished
from barbarians. An industrious and
cultivated nation is naturally pacific,
and useful to its neighbors—it evinces
not their glory nor their greatness—con
tinually occupied in improving its own
institutions, protected by a wise and li
beral legislation, it loves its actual condi
tion, it seeks not to change that far a
doubtful futurity—it respects tbe rights
of others because, it well comprehends
all tbe advantages which flow from nsys-
tem of peace and moderation.
It is pn these bases that our ancestors
founded their laws, and built up their in
stitutions—They were the foremost n-
nioug the most celebrated people ofthe u-
niverse to distinguish themselves though-
out a long period of civilization. The
errors'into which mankind have fallen
from tbe influence of time, from neglect
of religion, and the corruption of morals,
have inspired amongst ourselves those
noble principles, on which depend the
power, (he splendor, the celebrity of
nations. But an active, magnanimous,
generous people can no longer remain
plunged in the thick darkness which has
surrounded them. They have roused
themselves from their lethargy, and with
in a few short months have run the ca
reer of ages, vet without any violent
“hock ; yet without destroying at si sin-
do blow all. their ancient institutions;
but uniting to this nnlooked for impulse
the consent of their lawful Sovereign,
tw ice testified on oath, and consecrating
the legitimacy of the throne and ofthe
reigning dynasty, by vows rioless spon
taneous than sincere. Heroic Spain ap
plauds our magnanimous enterprise ; the
liberal governments of Europe for the
most pari approve it: bnt a dense cloud
begins to rise from the buuksofthe Dan-
(die ; the tempest precedes it, k. threat
ens to extinguish that radiant light which
spring# from the extreme bounds ol 8i-
, tly &. Italy. We hasten to meet tbe tem
pest ; we strive to appease it by pray
ers nud protestations ; all measures nrq
tried ; every expedient is resorted to,,
except those only, which belong to peo
ple already vanquished and enslaved.—
All is fruitless. They ask us for guaran
tees— we oiler them for assurances of
safety ; we give them. They summon
our Sovereign to the Congress ol Lay-
bach. Ilis repairs thither. They re
quire explanations of our conduct, politi
cal 'And civil, nay, almost of our secret
thoughts. We make every sacrifice con
sistent with the honor and dignity ofthe
nation ; 1 will add, of (he constitutional
throne itself; but we are wholly uasoc-
cessful. What more could wc ilo 1 what
security was it possible for us lo tendnr,
beyond such a composure as we exhibit
ed ; such a resignation—such n respect
for the rights of all nations and monarch#!
But I repeat it, all was in vain—and un
less the Supreme Being, the protector
of innocence nnd justice should fail to
enlighten the mind# of kings, and to touch
the hearts of their counsellors, it w ill be
difficult to preserve peace.
Rumor (sad messenger of the. calami
ties which impend over nations) had long
since announced that a cloud charged
w ith lightning and tempest was approach
ing our native country. Your royal high
ness, calling together an extraordinary
1’arli,uncut, has still added strength to
our suspicions. The discourse which
w ith so much feeling you have delivered
from the throne of your ancestors, lias
changed our doubts into certainty. The
contents ofthe official documents which
accompany your speech are lor us a me
lancholy- augury, and perhaps the wliote
nation will he compelled to throw aside
the system of moderation which lias dis-
tiiignisliedpt, to enforce all its rights, and
dsiplav itself in firll dignity before the
face of Europe.
As for us, we wnntcd nothing at the
hands of neighbouring nations. We re-
-poet nil governments, however contras
ted may be their constitution* with our
own ; wo wish lo live at pence in our
dwellings, lo cultivate our soil, to eser-
cis* Unrestrained the rights of industry
and commerce : we w i-h other states to
respect our religion and to leave it un
stained by foreign superstitions ; we are
anxious lor peace under tlie shade of
those protecting laws, nnd of that immor
tal constitution, fidelity to which wc
have sworn. Sir, Parliament will mlopt
those resolutions w hich it shall conceive
to bio most worthy of the honor and in
dependence ofthe nation which is con
fident to use its destinies--those resolu
tion* which will he bird calculated to
preserve peace, if possible, and good un
derstanding between the people of the
Two Sicilies, and all the other nations
of the earth : to consolidate the edifice
of our Constitution, and the legitimacy of
the throne.
^Your royal highness, with that noble
frankness and integrity byjwhich yon are
characterised; has just pronounced, these
memorable words, that you “ will be fi
ver with us and with the nation,” and the
grateful nation w ill know how to maintain
eternally on the throne of the Two Si
cilies the dynasty of Charles.”
At those words the hall resounded
•villi fresh acclamations, which accom
panied the Prince nnd his august spouse
the whole wav from the Parliament to the
pllace, After the Prince’s departure,
his excellency the Duke de Gallo, Se
cretary of State, ad interim, for Foreign
Affairs, made a report to the Chamber
of his mission to Lay bach.
His Excellency then communicated,
1st, The notes of the foreign ministers
in reply to that of his majesty, which had
been transmitted to Congress. 2. The
notes presented to the Prince Regent by
the foreign ambassadors resident at Na
ples, with (he prince’s answers. 3. The

then named a Commission, composed of
several eminent members, to examine
the above documents.

Parliament adopted, without a dissenting
voice, tbe proposed measures for the de
fence of the country.

NATIONAL PARLIAMENT.
Sitting of the 25fh.
The Minis ter for Foreign Affairs trans
mitted to the Parliament 150 copies of
tbe manifesto issued by the government
against the invasion of the kingdom.
S. Ma-sone read n motion for reques
ting the Prince Regent to remain near
the parliament, for the purpose of giving
his sanction to the decrees ; and that lie
should not expose himself on the fron
tiers, or repair thither, except to ani
mate the troops, and to return immedi
ately. The motion was supported by
several deputies, but vehemently oppo
sed by S. Rorelli, who observed, lhat it
was not of the prerogative of parliament
to limit the will of him to whom the con
stitution had confided the supreme com
mand ofthe army. The motion was re
ferred to a committee.
Many offers of voluntary aid were read
at this sitting. Among them was one
from an actor named Cnivnrola, ofthe
Theatre San Carlos, who tendered to the
State the amount ofthe receipts at In.-
benefit, to take place on the 5th March,
and which was expected to produce not
less than 1,800 or 2,000 due it*. The

“The demand for Cotton lias revived

Wo now quote Upland 8 8-4 at 10 3-4 per

they have met the demand freely, have pro

had entered Re.mini had been cut off ivy the
Inhabitants, it is publicly stated nt Naples
that in the event of invasion, assistance the
most effectual will he derived both from
Spain and France, Several vessels freight
ed with arms had already arrived from Spain,
mid several hundred French officers had en
tered the Neapolitan service. The French
people do not participate in the sentiment of
neutrality declared I»y the government.—
Many free corps of ilie Neapolitans have
carried alarm into tbe States of the Holy
Pontiff. All Italy appears ready to make
common cause with the Neapolitans. The
officers of the French squadron have frater
nized with the Neapolitan*. A general ris
ing is momently expected in the Roman and
Bolognese States, in the kingdom of Na
ples, all the male population capable of bear
ing arms, are marching lo the frontiers.—It
is reported that some officers of a certain
squadron in the. lay have expressed u wil
lingness to fight under the Neapolitan flag.
Borne young people of Messina have march
ed to the frontiers as volunteers.
On tile 15t li lilt, a body of disaffected Tus
cans, and other Italians, iu conjunction with
a party of Neapolitans proclaimed the Nea
politan constitution in the Roman state of
Aurora nn.
A letter from n respectable merchant in
Naples dated 18th Feb. states, “1 cannot
think the Austrians can ever become mas
ters of the interior of the country where a
Guerilla warfare will be kept up. I fear the
war will assume a frightful character of fe
rocity. llad you been in Parliament the o-
therday when the gnat question of War, or
submission, was decided, you would have

VERY LATE FROM ENGLAND.
The fust sailing ship Ocluvia, captain
Wilson, arrived late last evening, after
the short passage of 35 days from Liver
pool. She brings London dates to the
22d of March, and Liverpool to the 24th.
Such extracts of interest as we had time
to make are subjoined. The Austrians
had not yet commenced the war, but the
Piedmontese had revolted, & the whole
df Italy in all probability will be on the
side of Naples.
.The Emperor of China is dead.
The British Parliament is occupied
chiefly, it would appear, in discussing
the Catholic question.
The Spanish Gen. Morillo, had ar

The Londqn Globe, of 20th March,

Prussia. The report was circulated in
quarters so respectable, that we cannot
let it pass unnoticed.”-
From the Liverpool Mercury, March 23.
ITALY.
The congratulations of the friends of
freedom are now the introduction of eve
ry conversation, and may therefore claim
the first place in our political comment#.
H'c do, indeed, most sincerely congratu
late our readers on the opening events
of that war in Italy, which was begun in
the spirit of proud and oppressive des
potism, but which already wears a bright
ening aspect in favor ofthe insulted and
oppressed. The Revolution in Pied
mont may be considered decisive ofthe
fate ofthe Austrian invasion. It is-the
signal for oilier Revolutions, not only in
Italy, but in every part ofEurope, where
despotic Princes have deceived their
people. The reports cf such Revolu
tions are already numerous, and although
we would not mislead the expectations of
the earnest votaries of liberty, even by
pointing out sources of hope ; yet we
are ready to acknowledge that wo are
willing to lend our confidence to many of
these reports. We are prepared to be
lieve that the insurrectionary move
ment*, which are staled in some of the
London papers to be rapidly taking place
from Warsaw in Poland, to Lyons in
France, may not he fallacious, and that
even the advanced guard of thu Austri

to the Neapolitans, than to attaeklhetn
We Hull now proceed to take a suc

The intelligence from the north of I-
ly ofllic 3d inst. stated that otie divis
ion ofthe Austrian army iiad passed the
Tiber, at Ponte-Molle, and occupied
Iticli. The reserve was at Foligno.—
Tlio Neapolitans who had occupied the
defiles of liicti and Terai, had rctrugad-
ed as far a* Aquila, to consolidate their
forces. This appears to have been the
situation of the armies when the Revolu
tion of tiie Piedmontese army took place.
The accounts in the London papers of
tiie 20th instant, contain thu following
important statement*, of which we shall
probably receive further particulars be
fore this paper is published.
Defeat of the Austrians.—By express
from Paris, a bulletin had been received,
in which it is announced that there has
been a battle nt Ricti on tiie 9th March,
and that the Neapolitans attacked the Im
perial Army, which was defeated ; that
many prisoners were taken ; that the
action whs very bloody; nnd that gen.
Pepe was killed.
A report lias gained credit on the Ex
change at Paris, that a chest containing
funds from M. Rothschild for the Austri
an urniy, had been seized by a detach
ment of the Sardinian army which was
inarching against (he Austrians.
Liverpool, March 24.
Tiie public mind has been kept in a
state of considerable perturbation during
the whole ofthe present week by tiie
continual title of reports, opinions and
speculation*, which Cowed upon us from
France and Italy, and which Were scarce
ly exceeded in number and variety du
ring nnv period of tiie lute war. First
in immediate interest, though not in ul
timate importance, is the account of a
battle said to have been fought on the
Neapolitan frontier, the beginning of tin
present month. All the statements hith
erto received, the greater part of which
have reached us through the French
journals, concur in declaring that the re
sult of this battlo was in favor of the
Neapolitans, and some account* add that
the loss ofthe Austrians amounted to not
less Ilian 4 or 5.0U0 men. The latter,
it i* said, were attacked by surprise, and
before they were at nil aware lhat the
enemy were ready to receive them.—
But the whole details of this affair are,
as yet, in a stale of absolute uncertainty.
[From the London papers ofthe 22 d March,]
Paris papers to the 18th and lfhh-inst.
have been received this morning. In
telligence from Italy, received in Paris
on the latter day, has also reached town
this morning, thus anticipating the Paris
papers of Tuesday. They confirm the
account of the revolt of several garrisons
in Picdmout, and the abdication of the
King of Sardinia, but not the defeat of
the Austrians and death of General Pepe,
so confidently asserted iu the bulletin
from Paris. Those and the other favor
able accounts, including the insubordina
tion of the Austrian troops, which is ex
pressly contradicted, had probably their
origin in speculations on change. What
was said of the march of the Prince of
Carignan towards Milan has not been
confirmed. The papers mention a va
riety of rumours, upon which we appre
hend no reliance can be placed ; among
them arc tbe following : That a courier
had arrived at Paris from Mayence,
bringing information of some revolution
ary troubles having broken out in that
city, that the Austrian magistrates at Ve
nice had been killed by the people ; nnd
that at Turin, the colonel of a regiment,
wishing to oppose the constitutional move
ment, a lieutenant stepped out ofthe
ranks and Eliot the colonel through the
head with a pistol. The news from
Piedmont is important. The King of
Sardinia, it is said, has abdicated, not in
favor of tbe Prince de Carignan, but of
his brother the Duke de Genovois. The
Prince de Garignan is merely appointed
Regent till the arrival of the king’s bro
ther, who was ou his way towards Mo
dena, lo meet his father in law, the King
of Naples,
Russia.—It is said, tint there are not
les* (Kan 120,000 Russian troops assem
bled in Georgia, ready for the field. The
ambitious designs of Russia become daily
more apparent, and we must not lie sur
prised to sec shortly that court openly
•ivow its views on Turkey and Persia.—
I he Emperor Alexander, it is said, has
been recalled to St. Petersburgh by the
enatc, from motives of the greatest ur
gency. Perhaps the Poles begin lo think
that, in the present crisis, they may re
quire something more than the nominal
independence granted lo them by the
congrees of Vienna.
London, March 20.
On Sunday morning a messenger arrived
in town, (villi despatches from Naples—the
Earl of Liverpool had a consultation with se
veral of the Cabinet Ministers, at hi# house

Soldiers! After four months of an ar
mistice, which was to terminate by
peace ; in the midst ofthe. most religious
observance ofthe compact, on our part;
k whilst negociritions suggested by him
self, were pending, Gcu. Bolivar has
Inhabitants of these provinces! In tlio
midst of an armistice scrupulously ob
served by us, General Bolivar has noti
fied to me its suspension. Explanations
respecting the affair of Maracaibo, which
lie himself, on the 15th of Feb. had re
quested me to entertain, were pending,
and I lie conferences to which he himself
had invited me to accqde, between iiis
comtnbrioners and those of his Majesty,
on the subject of prolonging the armis
tice, had not yet ceased, when he sud
denly, and under the strange pretext that
the treaty concluded at Truxillo was pre
judicial to his army, which experienced
enormous losses, announced to me, that
either iiis government must be acknow
ledged or the war renewed.
General Bolivar knew very well that
the recognition demanded, was beyond
my oflicial powers. Such was our fixed
understanding nt San Cristovai m August
last ; k upon (his principle was the ar
mistice signed ; an arrangement which
was, in fact, only a suspension ofhostili-
ties, while his commissioners should pro
ceed to the court of Madrid, to treat of
recognition, or to set forth other claims
to the adjustment of which our power*
did not extend. Indeed, n more extraor
dinary and unseasonable intimation wu*
never koovvn.
Inhabitants of these Provinces ! 1 did
not hesitate a moment to answer him
that, pursuant lo the 12th avticle of tho
armistice, the forty days stipulated in
it, began to run from the 19th instant, orj
which I received his intimation. In con
sequence, hostilities mill be commenced
on my side the 28lh April.
Fresh calamities are about to fall upoi^
you ; calamities provoked and induced
so unjustly, by tbe imprudence of Gen
eral Bolivar. The responsibility will
not rest with the Spanish government,
which, to avert those evils, has taken
steps marked by unprecedented disinter
estedness & generosity, nnd has made tho
utmost efforts of good faith and forbear
ance. You will soon have submitted to-
you nil the details of these transactions j
yon shall judge ofthem—the whole world
shall judge of (hem.
Although the true causes ofthe extra
ordinary and precipitate conduct of Gen
eral Bolivar are yet secret, they must
very soon transpire. Your honour is,,
perhaps, implicated in them ; since, per
haps, the false representations of some
had men may have awakened in iiis mind
the same ideas and projects that he in
dulged in his invasions of Ocumare and
Clarines.
New-York, April 26.
It is probable tlint intelligence from
Peru, has been received at Havana of a
later date than has reached us by way of
Rio-Jnneiro. The advices from Pana
ma must be to about the Ctli of March,
mid news trom Lima might arrive at the
latter place in 15 to 20 days. We are
confirmed in this opinion by a letter from
Philadelphia, which states that official
accounts are received, that nearly one
third of Peru has joined the Patriots, and
that all the Mines are in their posscssiou.
Loiters have been receivciT at Boston
from Constantinople, dated Oct. 20th, af
ter the arrival of Air. Bradish there.—
I hey announce that the Turks are very
desirous to make a treaty with our govern
ment. Oneof tlio letters is from the Nea
politan charge d’Affaires.—-Palladium.
