We received last night the Paris Papers of Thurs• day, the principal contents of which will be found in the subjoined extracts. The Neapolitans, it appears, are beginning to reap tilt fruits of the late happy re storation. Among other measures , of vengeance adopted by the new Government, it has been de geed, that all persons convicted of carrying prohi bited arms, arc to be punished with death as assas sins; and all members of secret societies to share the same fate as traitors! Free permission has been given to all and sundry the lieges to put ex-General ROSAROLLI to instant death,' if found within the States of his Neapolitan Majesty ; and large rewards have been offered for the apprehension of six other persons who distinguished themselves during the Re volution. General PEPE, it is stated, has arrived in safety at Barcelona, accompanied by some other members of the late Government. PARIS, APRIL 26. Yesterday a Council of Ministers was held, a t which the King-presided ; it lasted tw o hours. It is said that the Court will pass a considerable part of the fine season at St. Cloud. Letters from Madrid say, that since the receipt of the news from Naples and Piedmont, a secret agita tion, the usual precursor of great events, prevails in ' that capital, amidst an apparent calm. Recent advices from Lisbon state, that some late Decrees of the Cortes, by which the interests of a great many families are injured, have caused general dissatisfaction. The Revolutionists are charmed with the insurrec• tibn of the Greeks ; but when it shall have met with the same fate as that of Naples and Piedmont, they will change their present language, and substitute , blame for eulogy. The inhabitants of Calabria, amongst whom union and tranquillity reign, have addressed a Proclamation to the inhabitants of Messina, inviting them to range themselves under the rgis of the legitimate dynasty, and to shut their ears against the disturbers of public order. Amongst the men who endeavour to pro long the evils of their country, they designate Gene ral Rosarolli as by far the most culpable, who has covered himself with disgrace by his treachery to ' his Sovereign. The Director-General of Police at Naples has pub lished the following:—" The Ex-General Rosarolli, having been guilty of high treason by his conduct at Messina, the Public are informed that it is lawful for any one to put him to death, if he should he found in the States of his Majesty." The same Director-General has published the fol- lowing Notice:—" A reward of 1000 ducats will be given to any one who shall arrest the following indi viduals, viz. D. Lorenzo de Conciliis, D. Michele Morelli, D. Giuseppe Silvati, D. Luigi Minichini, and D. Giuseppe Capuccia." Another Decree orders the appointment of a Court- Martial to try those persons who shall be found with prohibited arms in their possession; and, in case of con viction, they . will be punished with death as assassins. The same Court is charged with the execution of the Royal Decree of the 28th of March against Secret Clubs, and particularly that of the Carbonari. Every Club of Carbonari being considered as formed for the overthrow of Governments, to be a Member of one will subject the individual to the penalty of death. The King has issued the following Proclamation: '• i. There shall be created a court.bfartial, with all the powers of a special Council of War. 4 . 2. This Court shall rigorously execute they Articles 4 and of our Decree of March 3 (for disarming the inhabitants), and any person found with the arms therein prohibited, shall be punished as an assassin capitally, without delay. S. The same Court is charged with a jurisdiction over all Secret Societies, especially the Carbonari. •'4. The Carbonari, being regarded as traitors, shall be punished with death. - " 5. All others, though not initiated Carbonari, found grange Miele, forming part of a Secret Association. 6. All persons not immediately giving notice of such Meet tug, of which they have a knowledge, shall be imprisoned for any period under ten Ifears. " Any member of these Conventicle,' repenting of his crime, and giving information to the police, shall receive impunity, and have his name kept secret, and not entered upon any register. " Signed, for his absent Majesty, Marquis DE CIRCELi.O." The King, wishing to establish order in Sicily, has established a Provisional Government at Palermo, with Cardinal Gravina at its head. The Duchess of Floridia (wife of the King of Na ples), has set out for Rome. To-morrow, her august husband sets out for the same city. AUGSBURG, APRIL 19. Private letters state, that the orders from Laybads . ~. tend to accelerate the march of the Russian artay, which is to occupy all Italy, from the Alps to the Gulf of Messina, conjointly with the Austrians. It is assetted as a fact, that this occupation is the result of a new Convention signed at Laybach. A Gentleman who has travelled post from Paris,, having left that capital . on Friday afternoon, has brought the following intelligence. Wicannot vouch, for its correctness ; it is believed at Paris : " The Count de la FIIRRONAYS, French Minister at the Court of Petersburgh, has brought to Paris a Treaty which has been concluded at Laybach for the passage of a Russian and Austrian Army through the South of France, to be agreed to by the French Government. The conditions are to be kept secret till the moment of its execution. The KING of SPAIN, it is asserted, has sent a, secret emissary to Laybach ; and the Sovereigns there entertain the hope, that at the approach of their combined Armies, the Spanish Army, at least for the greatest part, will embrace the cause of their KING, and that, by the influence of the Clergy and Nobility, forth in the provinces." will burst For ourselves, though we do not absolutely believe this news, we happen to know as a fact, that great anxiety has been shewn in Paris to prevent its circu lation; and, as a proof, we may mention, that from a paragraph, copied from an Augsburg Paper, stating " that the first column of the Russian army was des tined not only for Italy but for Spain," the French Censors struck out the word " Spain." We also know, that about a fortnight ago the mere rumour of the intention of Russia to attack Spain kept the French Exchange for tivo days in the greatest disquietude and alarm, and that the French Minister took the utmost pains to create the belief that the Russian army had received orders to halt. A French Paper of Friday, however, contains the following paragraph :—" Letters from Frankfort state that the Emperor ALEXANDER has sent orders to the Russian troops which are now in Germany to advance as rapidly as possible to their destination, The Imperial Russian Guards have received orders to march." The Paris Papers of Friday arrived at a late hour this forenoon. Accounts are quoted from Vienna, which announce positively the approach of the Russian army. Their advanced guard is stated to have arrived, on the 13th April, at Czatga. Thq army consists of 100,000 men, of whom 85,000 are infantry, provided with the ne cessary artillery, and 15,000 are cavalry and Cossacks. It is expected, that before the beginning of June the whole will have arrived in the environs of Laybach, where the Emperor ALEXANDER still remains. The ex-Empress of France, MARIA LOUISA, now Duchess otParma, made an offer, it appears, to the Emperor her father, to send a small army which she has, of from 4,000 to 5,000, to assist in the subjugation of the Revolutionists of Piedmont. The offer was accepted, and General NIEPERO, having taken the command of these troops, marched for Alexandria, where he is to unite with Generals BUENA and Count de LATOUR. The Bishop of TARRAGONA, Grand Inquisitor of Spain, an old man of seventy years of age, exiled from Spain, arrived at Bayonne on the 17th inst.— During the whole journey, as far as Irun, he was escorted by twenty-five horsemen, commanded by a Colonel and a Sub-Lieutenant ; the two latter accom panied him to Bayonne. French Five per Cents.—Thursday, 82fr. 75c. Spanish Papers to the 17th instant, and Flemish to • the 24th inst. arrived in the course of yesterday. Some articles, extracted from them, will be found in our last page. The accounts from Madrid have been in a great measure anticipated through other chan nels. They are all indicative of much agitation and disorder. Very serious disturbances have again taken place at Valencia. It has been proposed to transport a number of obnoxious persons, and a strong decla ration was drawn up by the Municipality of Valencia to the Cortes, to obtain the consent of the latter to this cruel measure. At Alcay, several lives were lost at the election of a new Municipality. The troops fired on the people, or at least on the obnoxious party, and the cause of this violence is ascribed to an attempt made by the Serviles, as they are called, to get a per son of their own party chosen Alcade. By Mails from Hamburgh and Holland, which ar rived this forenoon, we have received the following important particulars respecting the progress of the Greek Insurrection. The sanguinary features by Which it is distinguished, are revolting to every hu. mane feeling : BUCHAREST, MARCH 13. Theodore, after having gone round Krajowa, has retired into the mountains. Two days ago there ar rived here the three Caimakans of the new Prince of Walachia, from Constantinople, and brought with them the assurance that a large Turkish Army was advancing to reduce the rebels, and levied for it 250,000 piastres from the Boyars. We are now able to give further particulars of the shocking events that took place at Galacz. A Cap tain of Arnauts got into a dispute with a Turk ; the Turk gave the Amaut a box on the ear, on which the latter drew out a pistol and shot the Turk dead on the spot. Fearing the vengeance of the Turks, the Captain amiable: in the night all the &Rant:, _* Greeks, stnd MoldavNns, and falls upon the Turks residing in the town, two hundred in number, who are all massacred. Among this terrible slaughter, fire broke out in several parts of the town at once, and as, under such circumstances, nobody thought of extinguishing it, the whole town was reduced to ashes. The Captain seized not only the arms of the murdered Turks, but also the cannon and military stores on board the ves sels, and proceeded to Moldavia by the road to Jassy, being joined by the inhabitants of the villages on the way, by which his numbers were considerably increased. Anxious alarm prevails among the other inhabitants of Walachia. All are making prepara tion for flight because it is feared that the Turks will invade the country. Theodore seems not to act according to any cer tain plan. At first he turned towards Kraj9wa, on the frontiers of Bulgaria, now he retires into the mountains. The number of his followers is stated, but probably too high, at 8,000 or 10,000 men. The Boyars not only do not take any share in these trans actions, but many of them are ready to quit the country. The son of the celebrated Czerny George is with Ypsilanti's army. The latter levies great con tributions ; the horses in particular are taken away from the Boyars. Accounts spread here say, that the Servians are in insurrection, and that the Turks in that province have been obliged, to retire into the fortresses. It is affirmed that 4,000 Greeks have gone from Odessa alone. FROM TIIE FRONTIERS OF TURKEY, APRIL 6. Ypsilanti, in his Proclamations, calls himself Prince of the Empire.: • According to the latest accounts, great confusion prevails at Bucharest. The Turks are again leaving their fortresses, and advancing against the Capital. On the other hand it is stated (bnt it wants confirma tion), that the Greeks, under the command of Jukon Brankwar, have attacked the new Prince of Wal lachia, Callimachi, killed the Turks who attended him, and brought him to Bucharest. gystliNG STAR. 6. AUGSGURG, APRIL 20. Letters from Vienna state, that Prince Ypsilanti makes great stir to have himself `recognized by the other Chiefs in the quality of Generalissimo, but as yet without success. There are three different corps in Moldavia. Ypsilanti advances himself, it is said, upon Silestria, in order to render himself afterwards master of the coasts of the Black Sea, whence he may easily receive succours. The other corps, it is added, will follow him. It is said, that the project of Theodore is to cross the Danube, to seize on Nicopoli, and then to ad vance as far as Sophia, in order to facilitate the re volt of the Greeks of Bulgaria. He will also open a communication with some Chiefs in Servia, in order to produce a revolutionary movement in that Province. As to Macedonia, nothing certain is known of what is passing there. Soule persons think that the declaration of the Emperor of Russia will suffice to defeat the projects of the Greeks. Others, on the contrary, believe that things are pushed to such a point that it is no longer possible to draw back. Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Constantinople, dated March 24:—" Very active exc._ tions are making to prepare the Turkish fleet for sea." The Gazette of Saturday night contained an official account of the . successful termination of the Expe dition sent from India under the orders of Captain LUMLEY, of his Majesty's ship ToPAZE, for the pur pose of obtaining redress for the injuries which the British interests had suffered from the Officers of the ImAtm of SENNA. The account will be found at length in our Nautical column. The Duke of CLARINCE and the Princess AUGUSTA attended Divine Service yesterday at the Chapel Royal.

CULA NI were also in the carriage. " The Kiwo of NAPLES, " says a private letter of the 14th of April, " left Florence early on Saturday morning last, for his kingdom, via Rome. Although every preparation was made to receive him at Leg horn, where a Neapolitan frigate was waiting, that august and sincere Monarch altered his mind, and preferred an escort of Austrian soldiers, to the pro tection of his own well-beloved subjects! saw the funeral procession (for it had all its gloomy magni ficence) take its departure, and could not avoid com• . rniserating the. Royal puppet of foreign aggression.' 1 DANK OF IRELAND.
