(Signed) " A UOIREA U, Duke of Castiglione." The fortress of Huningen holds out vigorously. It is abundantly supplied with provisions. The enemy ?las erected a battery in the village of Little Hunin gen, composed of howitzers and mortars to bombard the place. This battery began to play in the begin ning of March. The garrison returned the enemy's fire by throwing some bombs into Basle. The garrison df I3efort frequently make successful s allies ; it has not only succeeded in procuring a great quantity of provisions, but has taken from the enemy at two different times, all the artillery they had before the place. It released, in one sally, 300 French pri • soners, and brought theth into the town. New Brisach is not cloSely blockaded, and commu• nicates with the garrlson of Schelestadt. These two places coMbine their sallies. The garrison of Strasburg frequeittly makes excur sions to the distance of three or four leagues, and oc casions reat losses to the enemy. The manufactories of Mulhausen are for the most part converted by the Allies into hospitals; they are crowded with sick. There are already 5000 sick there, and 800 d wounded were expected by the sth of March. All the great establishments on the tipper !thine are filled with the enemy's sick. There are 23,000 of them in that part of France, without reckoning the The enemy's excesses have so incensed the inhabi tants of the Upper Rhine and the Vosges, that they wait but for the signal to fly to arms and fall on the enemy. It is now Mo 6 than six weeks {:het the agents of Russia, at Basle, have been daily annciunting the news of their entry into Paris. In the beginning of March they began to allo* that the left 'king of their army had been unfortunate, but they seemed to reckon . greatly on the junction of Blucher with Langeron and Winzingerode. On the sth, they proclaimed that their army occupied Meaux with 200,00 d men, and intercepted the Emperor's communications with Paris. At last, on the sth, they aiihounced, as a matter of certainty, that '3O - ,000 Russians had entered Paris. MANTUA, MARCH 9. In Vice of all the hopes, which we allowed bur ielves to firm; that the Neapolitan trPopt would re frain from 'continuing hostilities, particularly after they had been informed of the late victories of the 2.'mpeior; ihd the advantages gained by the army of Win the King of Naples, It the held of his troops, Ittiiciced the Corps of Cibiervation 47141 the Vi ettof had left at Reggio. This corps, of only 2500 intri, bbte the whole day the fire of the Neapolitan gint, ;which formed several . lines below Reggio, but '‘wt did not dare to charge our troops, which_ accord 'mg to the ortieil t h ey had received; after having thus desisted a far superior force, fell back on the Taro. The cannonade Lasted several hours. *e had not alive 250 41:ien put hors de combat in thiS action ; but the ;army ikrill learn with sorrow, that General Seve 61i; who commanded at Reggio, was severely wound ed in the leg by a cannon-ball. The enemy must have suffered a considerable loss. • MILAN, MARCH 12. ARMY OF ITALY-ORDER OF itiE DAY. " Head-quarters at Mantua; March 11. ill Several reports having announced movements in the enemy's army, his Imperial Highness the Prince Viceroy ordered strong corps to recorinoitre along the whole line do the 10th of Mara. The corps that Wein from Montzartibano tell in with the enemy on the ntighbouting heights. The corps from Goito, composed Of two battalions and 80 horse, under Ge neral Jeanini repulsed the first posts of the enemy, and penefried as far as Roverbella, *here the ene my's rear-guard seemed inclined to make some resin• tance. We took in this town 67 prisoners, among whom are four officers. " The corps that . went from Mantita fct march upon Caitiglione, was under the command of Gene ral Galiiibertil he repwlsed the enemy as far as Cas tiglione. There was a brisk fire of musketry OA both sides. the corps that went from Governolo, under the command of General Paolucci, pursued the ene- my, who did not cease to retreat before him, as far as Ostiglio. On this day the enemy had 300 men put Pam; de 4-or bati and we took 100 prisoners, of whom four are officers. We had not above 80 wounded. a The object of the efteiny't, retrograde ihovemeni 'vas to concentrate his forces at Verona; fdr feat. of being attacked by tin at all points c: the line. He has kept two corps in advance, one towards Villa franca, arid bne towards Castel Nuovo. Our army remains till farther 'orders on the Mincio : the enemy having abandoned the entrenchments they had thrown up at Borghetto, they are at present occupied by our 4dvanced posts.

" A Treaty of Peace hating been concluded be tween his Imperial and Royal Majesty of Austria, and the other Continental Allied Powers, with the King of the Two Sicilies, who is in the provisional possession of the Ecclesiastical estates of Tuscany, and of the southern departments of Italy, an armis tice has loeen stipulated with England, which is to be followed by a pacific arrangement, under which the liberty of the seas is' to be acknoWledged, and the freedom of commerce is to be secured. " The people of this beautiful part of hall will readily calculate the advantages which are obtained, and the hopes which may be indulged from this new and imposing situation, arid his Majesty has under taken to form such engagements as will induce the inhabitants to be sensible of the duty of gratitude they owe to him. He engages for the external security of the countries under military occupation, and by the armed force he maintains on the Po he will keep at a distance from these territories the sanguinary theatre of war. 6. In these circumstances the justice you owe to him requires that internal tranquillity should be preserved until a General Administtative Council, established and holding its sittings at Rome, shall have provided the proper means for the Civil, Financial and Judicial Administration. 44 His Majesty] in the sensibility of his heart, is so licitous for your happiness : he has employed Royal Commissaries, supplied with the necessary powers to acquire information of your wants, and who will learn your wishes through the Mediurh of the Councils of the Departments, and who will adopt such measures as may be most conducive to your welfare. On his high authority, and sanctioned by his full powers, I am enabled to declare to youl " 1. That hit, Majesty places under the safeguard of his own honour, and that of the loyalti of the Ministers of the Church, the maintenance of peritonal security. and the inviolability of public property. " 2. That he promises the protection of maritime and interior commerce with all friendly and neutral poVrers. " 3. That all vacant offices, or such as may become vacant in your departments, shall be filed etclusiitely by the inhabitants. " 1. That no new tribute shall he exacted front your country, and it shall he the especial care of his Majesty to diminish those already imposed, which by experience are found to be burthen some. " People of Southern Italy, encourage in your hearts sentiments of gratitude, not because it is com manded, but because the virtue and beneficence of his Majesty inspires those sentiments. These will be the happy presage of your future destinies—it will render the nation dear to us, and worthy of the Ita: liar) name. Your political independence, the most important requisite of nations, will result from your conduct. Your desires will be seconded by his Ma jesty and the Allied Powers with all their forces.— The moderation, the disinterestedness which have been displayed, and the wisdom which presides over your Councils, will be the guarantee of your fidelity.

He is scarcely three years of age, and with what grimace he pronounced these words, we leave our Readers to judge. There is a Military Report in these rapers from AmEnEnu, in which he layi claim to certain successes in the vicinity Of Macon : but we suspect his veracity on the occasion. On the side of Italy MURAT . is now iri the field in person against the Viceroy; BEAUHAR NOIS, and the army of the latter it retiring " accord ing to orders received." ThiS morning', between ten and eleven o'clock, a Messenger was sent off from the Foreign Office, with diSpatches to Lord CASTLEREAGH. The two Houses of Parliament met yesterday. The attendance in the Commons was very full. From the' fate of a Motion made by Lord OSSULSTON, it will be seen that the House does riot mean to entertain any question affecting the negciciation at Chatillon—at least for the present. Nothing else occurred of any interest, except an obseivation which fell from the CIOCV.LLOR of the tICCHEQUER, on the recommen dation of a Vote of Thanks to the Marquis of WEL- LiNdroN; for hii late successes, by Mr. WYNNEe— The Right Hon. Gentleman, in answer, expressed a hope, that in g Short tinie the Houte would be called tipon to itote thanks for &ore btilliant successes. We take this expression At a confident anticipation of the capture bt Bourdeaux and theshipping in theGironde. The House of Lords pfesented a full attendance. Among the Members present were; The Arckbi.hop of Canterbury, his Highness the Duke of Gloucester, the Duke of Norfolk ; Mar4uises of Lanadown, Ely, Camden, and Wellesley; Earls Liverpdal, Grey, Stanhope, Ba thurst, Harrowby, Nelson, Selkirk, Lauderdale, Mansfield, Fal mouth, Limerick, Pomfret; Lords Ellenborough, Erskine, Dou glas ; the Bishops of Loudon, Chester, Peterborough, and Nor . taftch .

The intelligence of yesterday, and of . tvhi.:ll the Confirmation seemed to be anticipated by the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER last night, is, we are happy to say, confirmed this morning, by the arrival of Captain WHITE, of the PRINCESS CHARLOTTE Pac. ket, at the Foreign Office, with demi-official accounts of the occupation of Bourdeaut on the 12th inst. by Lord WELLINGTON'S army, without bloodshed. A great number of vessels were taken in the har bour. The ldtesi accounts from Lord WELLINGTON re present his Lordship to have been near Thoulouse, in which direction the army of Marshal SOULT had re treated. The Princess Charlotte was fire days on her way from St. Sebastian's to Falmouth. We leave also to add, that just as this Paper was going to press, we were informed of the arrival of a Messenger (Mr. CURVOYSIER) with dispatches from Lord WELLINGTON. Alioulti any think important transpire in time for Post, we shall stop the Press to announce it. THE ARMY. There Is now a considerable bustle at Portsmouth, embarking troops for Holland—about 6000 infantry and 1000 Marines. Colonel PANHUY 9 S Dutch Battalion is to be imme diately reinforced by a strong detachment from the Foreign Depot at Ljmington. The 3d Royal Provisional Battalion is among the troops going on service to Holland. They are a fine body of men. Detachments are also embarking at Portsmouth for Canlda, from the 51st, 43d, 95th Light Infantry, and the 31st, 36th, 79th Highland Camerons, and 102 d Regiments. The detachment of the 21st Regiment, which was at Brechin, has arrived at Sterling, the depot of the regiment. The whole reinforcements einba\ king at Ports mouth for Canada, amount to nearly 2100 nien. The 93d regiment at Fort George, is under orders for Spain. We are of opinion, however, that their destination will be changed to Holland: The head-quarters of the 2d West York Regiment of Militia are at Wexford, anti divisions of that regi ment are now quartered at Arklow and Wicklow. There are now shipping by the Board of Ordnance at Woolwich, Portsmouth, and Plymouth, immense supplies of arms and ammunition, in anticipation of possible toyal insurrections on the coast df France. Wednesday, the Ist division of the Wiltshire Mi litia arrived in Edinburgh, from the Perth depot, on their way to Ireland. Thursday, the Ist (or Highlanej Regiinent of Edinburgh Local Militia assembled in the Meadow Walk, and afterwards marched to blusteibilrgh, on permanent duty. A detachment of them marched to Pennicuick on Saturday, to do duty over the French prisoners in the depot there. On Thursday afternoon the West Kent Militia marched into the foot barracks at Windsor, to do the garrison duty in the place of. the sth regiment, the first division of which, under the command of Lieu tenant-Colonel Bitty, marched on Friday morn ing for Holland, and the second division, under the command of Captain DOYLE, on Saturd iy. The detachment of 200 men, which marched last week to join the first battalion with Lord WELLINGTON, were to have accompanied the second battalion to Holland, but they had sailed from Spithead before tlic orders an ived for this change of their destination. The staff, sick, and stores, remain at Windsor. The French General of Division ForumEa, who was taken pris‘mer at the battle of Brienne, died of his wounds on the '2Olll nit. We do not remember an occasion that has calk.' forth the exertions of the benevolent mote generally, than that which has arisen from the various accounts tit our suffering brethren in Germany.. The Dukes of YORK, KENT, and Sussex, the Archbishops of CA TERBURY and tonn, the Bishops of Losnom and Durmast; have signed their natnes to a public adver tisement, to convene a meeting,of the Nobility, Clergy, and Gentiy, at Freemasons Hall,. on Saturday next, to augment the contributions which have already been made by various classes in so many parts of the country. Never. was British benevolence exerted upon a more worthy cause. We hope there is not I town in ;he United Kingdom that will not, for the honour of treat Britain, contribute, to the utmost extent of its means, to alleviate the distress of -those who have so cruelly suffered, and are now suffering, for the emancipation of the civilised world. In the Collection of Picoires which will be brought to the harirrner on Thursday, by HOGGART and PHIL:.
