Captai n -General of Catalonia, relative to the news from Naples. The SECRETA RY for the GOVERNMENT Of the PENIN STIAI commissioned to express to the Cortes the sen timents of his Majesty, said, that his Majesty did not consider the late events at Naples as of the highest importance ; and although the circumstances fa vourable to the e,tablisliment of our liberty had ex perienced some aireration, there was yet reason to hope that we shall consolidate tranquilly the work of our political regeneration. The rest of the Message was in the most assuring terms. The PRESIDENT replied, that the Cortes were sa tisfied with the punctuality of the Government in making this communication; and though greath afflicted at the unfortunate events at Naplei, they could not but rejoice in the expres s ions of his Ala- jesty's sentiments. M. MORENA having expressed his grief at six mil lions of people who demanded their liberty, _poke in the highest terms of the King's Message, every word of which was worthy of being inscribed in marble and, after some obervations on the conduct of the' King of Naples, he said, " As fur ourselves, I think, we have nothing to fear from Foreign Powers; the present state of France is a barrier against the op. moors of liberty. England cannot admit the ag grandisement of the Northern Powers, since it ha-, many reasons for suspecting that the Emperor of ltus sia desires to have Sicily. We have Portugal in our rear, and consider the Portugue s e as Spaniards, that is, as united with us in the same cause. An alliance between the three Powers may secure us against the attempts of those of the North." SECRET SITTING ON TIIE BTII. It was resolved that a Commission should be ap pointed to reply verbally to the Message of his Ma jesty, and to concert with him DII the measures neces sary under existing circumstances, and that the con ference should take place in the presence of Miuis • tees. The latter branch of the lte,olution was, how ever, carried by a majority of one only, the numbers being 68 against 67. 9711 APRIL. The Deputation was well received by his Majesty, who charged them to assure the Congress that he was still the same, adding, that he hoped the Consti tution of Spain would have a more durable existence than that of Naples. A private letter from Bayonne, of the 14th, adds to these authentic accounts, that, in the Secret Com mittee of the Cortes, it had been proposed, in order to prevent the shame of invasion, to make such modi fication., in the Constitution as the Holy Alliance de mand, but that that proposition had been rejected by a small majority. La article from Naples, of the 4th of April, esti mates the extraordinary expenses which the Revolu tionary Government had caused the country, during the preceding eighteen days, at twenty-five millions; adding to which, the contributions and subsistence for the Austrian army, the national finances may be regarded as impoverished to the extent of forty mil. lions. The Provisional Government is in great dis tress; all the public chests are empty, and the notes et the Bank without credit. A duty of fifteen sous per Paper has beer. imposed on all foreign Journals, which is nearly equivalent to a total prohibition. Cardinal Babrizio Ruffo has left Rome for Na ples. He is said to have been named President of the Provisional Government, in conjunction with the Marquis de Circello. King Ferdinand has not, it seems, yet left Flo rence, and proposes to prolong his stay there for some time. Accounts from Trieste, of the 7th April, •tate that Sicily was still unreduced, and that the Austrian Con sul at Messina had been forced to take down the Im perial arms from his house. At Leghorn a report prevailed, on the 7th instant, that the Greek inhabitants of the Isle of Candia had rendered themselves masters of it, by seizing on all the snotty, places of the island.

A letter from Sierra Leone, dated February 8, states the arrival there of Commodore Sir GEORGE RALPH COLLIER, on the Ist of that month, from England, having on board Lieut.-Colonel BraKE, Acting Goverhor of the Colony, and several other Naval and Military Officers. The only captures of slave-traders made by the squadron during the rainy season, were two by the THISTLE, Lieutenant HAGAN. Mr. WRIGHT, Admiralty Midshipman of the TAR TAR (late Acting Lieutenant of the MYRMIDON) died on the 6th February, and Mr. WCARTHT, Captain ' s Steward of the MYRMIDON, on the Bth. The Myit- MIDON, Captain LEEK E, was to sail on the 104 a:ld the TARTAR on the I Ith February, on cruizes down the coast. The SNAPPER was cruizing otf Bullomshore. Letters 'have been received from Jamaica, under date of January gO, which state that- the squadron under Sir C. ROWLEY were tolerably healthy. A letter of this date says:—" The TAMAR, Captain G. PECHELL, is arrived here, after five weeks passage, from Halifax, via Havannah, where she got very little freight. She is now going forthwith to Port-au- Prince (St. Domingo), to communicate with the Pre sident 13ovEn, and to demand the restoration of the British brig Nymph, which had been captured by al pirate, and thought to have been taken into some of the ports of Hayti. With respect to the new order of things in St. Domingo, no person here has, as yet, any knowledge; the TA mat tt's visit will therefore give much interesting matter to this colony."

DREADFUL ACCIDENT. Friday, the inflammable air in the Colliery behind the North wall, called Wllitam-pit, at ‘Vll:teh:Ntn, suddenly caught fire, carrying death and dean ..etion to almost every hying creature within the range of its egplosion. Six men, rml lmjs, Voree girls, and fwe lasrs,:s, fell victims to the fury of the blast ! and three more pit-men were so severely scorched and wounded, that but faint hOile3 are ehtertained of their recovery. This shecklng catastrophe was occasioned solely ley the imprudence of one of the workmen, who, in order the more readily to Erd a pick which he had mislaid, unfortunately opened his safety lamp : the poor man lived long enough to acknowledge his error, and to repent his temerity. DUEL BETWEEN LORD PETERSHAM AND MR. T. W. WEDDERBURNE. Some strange rumours have been in circulation for several tilt) s respecting an altercation between the ab,ve parties. It was more than hinted that one of them had undergone personal chastisement. We did not think it proper to notice this story, and still less the repotted cause of the quarrel, which, indeed, we still regard as of too delicate a nature to mention on the mere authority of scandalous chit-chat. A para graph, however, appeared in a Morning Paper, which led to an interchange of letters between Lord FOLEY, Colonel PALMER, and Mr. W. WEDDERBURNE; and a Paper of yesterday gives the following correspond ence, as having preceded a meeting which took place on Saturday afternoon, at three o'clock, between the parties, attended by Lord FOLEY and Mr. KERR; the former as the friend of L. , rd PETERSUAM, the latter of Mr. WEBsTER WEDDERBURN4 when, after exchanging two shots each, without effect, the seconds interfered, and the affair terminated.

" t is with astonishment that I read your letter demand ing an explanation of the ground upon which Lord Petersham now calls upon you for satisfaction. You have not contradicted, but encouraged, a most scandalous and prejudicial reporeagainst his personal honour ; tie calls upon you patine& to con:rod:a it, or give him that satisfaction which is due to a Cientleman falsely accused. The cause of your having been kept waiting during the day has clearly been explained ; I must therefore now repeat the necessity of your immediately fixing upon the time and place of meeting to-morrow, or giving under your hand, for publica tion, a contradiction of that scandalous and false report before alluded to. Too much time has already been lost to attend to explanations, that may, under sonic presence, be withdrawn. " From yours, &c. " Potzv. " P. S.

Lord Foley presents me with an alternative which is wholly out of the question. " I am aware of no' false report' in currency against Lord Petersham, and if Lord Foley means that I could be capable of withdrawing any explanation I had once given, I must repel such an insinuation with indignation; and I will not permit any person to dictate that line of conduct to rue which is alone con sistent with my own honour to point out.
