C o unt, upon the receipt of very exaggerated acconnt's a y w hat was passing in Piedmont, judged it necessary to take some steps which were of t nature to excite apprehension; such as the departure of the Princess,' d a ughter of his tmpei ial Highness the Archduke Viceroy, the packing of precious effects, acu but soon , being made easy by more accurate accounts, every t hing returned to its usual course. The Viceroy and hi s Consort appeared at the Theatre and the Prome owe. The Public was soon informed that his Impe rial Highness had refused his assent to the arrest of sever al persons, which had been proposed to him : 1 t hi s circumstance has served to heighten the affection shish t his Prince has inspired by his excellent quali ties. It is known that the new Government of Bed mout has caused secret applications to be made at Laybach, and we expect what the Allied Monarchs will determine in this impotent affair. All the re pairs that had been spread of troubles at Florence, and other cities of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, hare been contradicted in the most formal manner." VIgNNA, MARCH 24. Th e military armaments have been increased within thme few days in an extraordinary manner. Above 40,00 0 fresh troops have already received orders to p r emed to Italy, and all the corps of the Austrian army are to be put in motion as speedily as possible : our Sovereign is resolved to finish the war without delay. In less than three weeks we shall, have above 150,000 more in Italy, which will b e re inforced also by Russian troops. At the sitting of the Spanish Cortes on the 22d sit. the Minister delivered a Message from the King, communicating the late events in Piedmont. Thanks w ere voted to his Majesty for the communication, and Senor Moreno Guerra proposed that this fortunate Revolution should be celebrated by public rejoicings. The discussion on the plan proposed by the Special Committee of Public Safety was resumed. In the beat of debate, Senor Morena Guerra said, that Naples was the constitutional advanced guard, Spain the centre, and Portugal the rear; that if the first was attacked, it behoved Spain to be on her guard. Two thousand Spaniards in Sicily, he continued, will main. tain order better than 20.000 Neapolitans ; and, ob serving that several of the Ministers were present, he asked whether there would be any objection to send 2000 men to Sicily? Count Torten complained of the scandalott% conduct of foreigners under the Spa nish flag, who were engaged in the Slave Trade on the coasts of Africa and America. To redress these grievances, the Cortes have nominated a Special Committee to consider and submit to the Congress the best means of abolishing this trade. The Court of France have gone for eight days into mourning for the death of her Royal Highness the late Princess Eumtarrn, daughter of their Royal Nemesia the Duke and Duchess of CLARDIICIL Friday the Duke and Duchess of CLARZNCI, and the Princess SOPHIA MATILDA, dined with the Duke and - Duchess of GlAtmarratt.

Monday, the LIFFEY frigate, Captain the Hon. HENRY DUNCAN, C.B. arrived at the Mother bank from Naples Bay, whence she sailed six days after the VENCEUR. She was released from quarantine on Wednesday, and came up to Spithead, where she re mains. The following is an extract from a private letter from an Officer at Naples: NAssas, FiasEAEY Eft, HEM All the squadron which suddenly assembled in this Bay, some of the ships of which jobbed from England, refitted nearly on the war establishment, have now been withdrawn. The Liffey, Hon. Captain Duncan, sails to.day for England, when the Rochefort (Sir Graham Moore), Captain C. M. Schoen berg, and the Iphigenia frigate, Captain Hyde Parker, will be the only ships remaining In the Bay. The Active, Sir James Gordon ' has sailed for Leghorn, to land a Lines Messenger, whence she proceeds for England. The rest of our are thus stationed :—Revolutionaire, Hon.

I. rivate Secretary to Lord MIL vsu.s, came passengers in the LIFFEY. Tuesday, the wind blowing hard from the SW. caused a very high tide at Maryport, which overrun all the quay; and entered some of the streets ; one street in particular it has broken up and carried away entirely, to a very great depth, which is rendered at present impassable. It entered many houses, and did other considerable damage. The like has not been known since the memorable high tide in January, 1796. We fear the whole coast of Cumberland has suffered by this unusual phenomenon 1 In the Solway Frith, a great deal of damage has been sustained on its shores ; the great embankment at the foot of the river Annan, which was nearly finished, has received considerable damage, computed at from six to seven hundred pounds. Numerous individuals in the neigh bourhood of that river have met with losses. So rapid was the force of the tide, that pan of a stone and lime wall, a considerable way above Annan Bridge, was levelled with the ground ; the brewery of Messrs. Ltrrta was inundated, and much loss sustained. The new Quays were all under water as well as the houses built near the port. We have not heard of any lives being lost. At Lancaster, at Liverpool, and at Parkgate, the tide was also uncommonly high, and occasioned considerable inconvenience and alarm. Thursday, pursuant to a sentence of the High Court of Justiciary, Henry MgConnell, Owen Cal laghan, and Meit Cameron, cotton-spinners, were whipped through the streets of Paisley, for attempt. ing to assassinate Mr. OAR; and we are happy to learn, this punishment was inflicted in presence of an immense multitude of spectators, without the slightest accident or disturbance.

HUNTING. His MAsures stage-bum& meet on Ftlday at the Horseshoes, at War&l4, at ten o'clock. Lord Maxon experienced a remarkable accident on Saturday, and a fortunate escape from personal injury. His Lordship had been hunting, in company with Earl FITZWILLIAM in the purlieus and country on the west side of Wa nsford, and was riding home ward about three o'clock in the afternoon, when, just as he passed the corner of the Mermaid Inn, at Wans ford, his horse fell dead on the road. The chase had been neither long nor severe; and the animal, which was a valuable and favourite hunter, had not shewn any signs of illness or distress. The Noble Lord was thrown forward on the road with such force as com pletely cleared him of the falling horse, and he arose immediately, not at all hurt by the extraordinary ac cident. He proceeded to Milton House, with Earl FITZWILLIAM, who was close at hand at the time. Thursday morning, between three and four o'clock, a fire broke out in the linen manufactory of Messrs.
