PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. 44 PARIS, MARCH 28, One (Mock, rat. wile news in the journals of the day is most im portant. The article from the Florence Gazette first ppeared in the &ode 4 Soir, a paper of violent itra-loyal . politics; but it is copied this morning; *lit° the Iliortiletsi and all the other journals, and there fore acquires the stamp of authority. It is certainly received and reasoned on as authentic by the majo ity in the Paris circles, where the cowardice of the Neapolitans has excited disgust among all parties.— Some wish still not to believe it, but none state any ground for doubting, except as to the degree of vil lainy ascribed to the Neapolitans: this, it is thought, must be exaggerated. a. One of the French Ministers told a Gentleman with whom I was in company last night, that he had received a dispatch with news (the sum of which, as k was then communicated to me, proved to be exactly the same as that in the Monitcur of to-day), which he(the Minister in question) believed ; and added, that the Austrians were everywhere received by the Neapolitans with shouts of Viva el Rey!' From the same party from whom I heard of the bah Minister's dispatch, above alluded to, I heard oho that it was confidently believed that the Emperor Alaander had written to the late King Emmanuel, to tell him that in sixty days an army of 120,000 lussians would arrive in Piedmont, and that nothing old alter this determination. Some of the letters from Italy state that Caras tosa has been bribed." " PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, Six o'Clock. 44 News has just reached Paris of the resignation &die Regency by the Prince of Carignano. This is Mentioned as certain, but his successor is not named. " I had scarcely finished the above sentence when &following statement was put into my hands ; and lam assured by the Gentleman to whom 1 am in debted for it that it may be relied on as official : "The Prince of Carignano left Turin in the night ef the 21st. Before his departure he published a Pro clamation, in which he announced the restoration of Mende:et order of things. The Prince is gone to Novara, with two Regiments of Cavalry, to place himself under-the orders of General La Tour, who is appointed Generalissimo by the King. " Before Prince Cariguano quitted Turin, a courier vas sent to the old King, - to invite him to return. " The tentes have been as high to-day as 821.35 c. and they closed at'B2 f." NAPLES, MARCH 9. ".• • • • In the way of news, I have only to say, that the two armies are in sight of each other since yesterday. The Regent went to Capua last night. 'o -day he will be at the Etat-Major of the first corps of the army, which is at St. German's; he will return to Naples on Sunday, for his visit is merely to drew himself in the camp. "If the Austrians do not attack, the Neapolitan army will do so on the 11th, forcing every point at the same hour, if possible; for Pepe. by a flank move ment, operated on the 6th, has brought his corps in communication with that of Carascosa. The result eithe war la ill be the destruction of Austria as a Power. Russia is of course glad enough to have that accom plished ; but how England could act such a part as to look tamely on, is strange indeed. Imbecile as her Ministers are, we never could believe them such dun derheads as to suffer the commerce of England to be so annihilated in this quarter by their, short. sighted Policy in this business. The Austrians pretend they *al be here by the 20th (the King of Rome's birth day). I rather think they will find the task more ar (loons than they imagine that they have some thiog more than a few rebels and a sea to fight against "ill be shewn them. Nothing can equal the entliu own of all classes in the cause, and every thing goes admirably." FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS. • PARIS, MARCH 28. An extraordinary courier from Laybach, who left that place on the 18th, arrived yesterday in Paris. Count Ferronnaye, Ambassador f r o m F rance to Russia, who attended the Congress at Laybach, is speedily expected here. !tlAn authentic letter from Chamberry, dated the t, announces that the Constitution of the Cortes been proclaimed there. Feral journals have an n ou nce d t h e arr i va l o f t h e in Victor Em manue l, at Ni ce, on the 15th ; some Imre teat Wm w on to Marseilles; and oue, more hasty than the rest, informs us that this MO 'arch had passed through Brignoles. None of these accounts are cor rect. The King had not arrived at Nice on the 19th, and was only expected on the following day. The indisposition of the Queen, and difficulties experienced in passing the Col.de-Tende, had occasioned the delay. For some days past the journal of Liege has not arrived in Paris. An account of the event at Grenoble was transmitted to Lille by a telegraphic dispatch. The result of the late news from Italy is, that the march of the Austrian troops in the Abruzzi expe riences no obstacle, and that the people' everywhere teAify the greatest attachment to the person of the King. All the forts which have bee n summodici in the King's name have hastened to open their gates. In several places the garrisons have been composed half of Neapolitan, half of Austrian troops. At the date of the 13th, the head-quarters of Ge neral Frimont were approaching the position of San Germano, which must be already turned by the Aus trian column descending the Abruzzi. It is conse quently not believed that this position can be de fended ; and there was no other available for cover ing Naples. A private letter, received from Italy, states, that after the departure of the Prince Regent from Naples for the army, a counter-revolution was brought about in that city. A letter from Frankfort, dated the 23d, contains a report of the death of the Grand Duke of Hesse- Darmstadt, on the preceding evening. It is reported that an insurrection against the Turks has taken place in part of the Greek provinces. It is said to have commenced in Wallachia anti Moldavia.

TftiF,STE, MARCH 14. _ _ Several private letters state that the Neapolitan squadron.has attacked the Austrian flotilla, in the port of Ancona, and done it considerable damage. We expect the confirmation and details of this news. AUGSBURG, MARCH so. Letters frcm Italy announce that many arrests have taken place in different parts of that country, 'and among the rest at Pat ma and Modena. In the Roman States several persons have been arrested on suspicion of Carbonarism. INSPRUCK, MARCH 18. We have received letters from Rome, dated the • 11th. They contain some interesting intelligence, of which the following is the substance: " The General Church, well known by the late events at Palermo, has been for some time here. The king of the Two Sicilies has appointed him a Lieu tenant-General, and he enjoys the confidence of that Sovereign. He has addressed a Proclamation to the troops of the line, and to the Neapolitan marines, ex horting them to unite with him in re-establishing the ancient order of things at Naples. lie enjoins the militia and legionary troops to letup home, and to watch over the maintenance of public order. Several Romans have entered into the corps Which General Church is forming here: some have been sent to the Neapolitan frontiers, to distribute the Proclamation of General Church. " For some days past we have constantly heard a heavy cannonade. The Austrians and the Neapoli tans have been fighting daily since the 7th. The day before yesterday two Austrian Regiments arrived from Moute Retondo, and marched yesterday for the Campagna di Roma. Two others have taken the same course, and more will follow. These corps form the division of Prince Philip of Hesse Hombourg, which marches on Palestrina and Frosinoni." TURIN, MARCH 21. The knowledge of tie Proclamation of the Duke of Genevois, which it was wished, but in vain, to conceal firm, the Public, has produced a very re markal)le effect among our regenerators, that ofdamp ing all their ambition. None of them now wish to be employed, and several have fallen sick on learn ing their nomination. The Provisional Junta is npt free from this contagion; and in order to secure a quoru.i., it has been necessary to recompose it two or three times a day. The rebels of Alexandria, in order to secure to themselves re•-•ards suited to their ser vices, have seized the public chests, and made pro motions, in which they have not forgotten them selves. The Prince of Carignan°, in the hope of dis solving the selfstated Junta of Alexandria, has been obliged to explain the decree of amnesty. Here follows a Decree dated the 18th, the pre amble of which states, that in consequence of the ac ceptknce of the Spanish Constitution, and the ap pointment of a Junta at Turin, the moment has ar rived for centralizing the authority, and rendering regular the transactions at Alexandria. The articles limit the word amnesty, in the Decree of the 14th of March, to acts done in effecting the Revolution, orders a Commissioner to be sent to Alexandria, &c. &c. The desertion is immense. The Prince Regent has been able to find no other remedy for it, except that of ordering the gendarme, to fire on all soldiers who attempt to return to their homes. VIENNA, DI ARCH 20. It is confirmed that all the corps of the Austrian army have been rendered moveable, and that orders have been given for immediately forming an army of reserve in the Austrian provinces of Italy. On the other hand, the Emperor of Austria has ordered the armies on the frontiers of Galicia to march, without delay, by the shortest route to Italy. Mails arrived to-day from Hamburgh and Hol land, with Papers to the 23d and 23th instant. The following are the only extracts of any interest : BERLIN, MARCH 20. His Imperial Highness the Gtand Duke Nicholas arrived here the day before yesterday, having made his journey from St. Peterburgh in four days. ST. PETERSBURGII, MARCH 7. The following news has lately been received here from China t—The name of the new Emperor is at length confirmed : he, as well as his Government, together with the whole Empire, is to be called Tau- Ktitaa. The Emperor assumes this name at the be ginning of the Chinese new year (February, 1821). CONSTANTINOPLF., FETIRUARY to.

Mr. Hvant, last night, in the House of Commons, moved for a Return of the Expenses incurred by this Government, in consequence of the detention of NA POLEON BONAPARTE, in the Island of St. Helena.— The Honourable Member stated, that on the best in formation he could obtain, the annual expense en tailed on the country, by that measure, exceeded £400,000, of which the Continental Powers bore no part. Sir ROBERT WILSON and Mr. HUTCHINSON took this opportunity of protesting against the deten tion of the late Emperor of France, as a measure disgraceful to the country, and as a breach of public faith towards the individual concerned. The Report of the Roman Catholics Disabilities Removal Bill was brought up, and the Amendments made in the Committee were agreed to. Mr2CROKER gave notice that, after the third reading of the Bill, he should move a Clause, to make the Oath of Supre macy the same for both Catholic and Protestant. lle then moved a Clause, to enable the Crown to make a suitable provision for the Catholic Clergy. Lord CASTLEREAGII opposed the measure, as being prema ture and ill-timed. Mr. CROKER then withdretv the Clause for the present, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday. The important question of the Timber Trade next engaged the attention of the Ilouse•, which went into a Committee on the subject of the Duties paid on the Baltic Timber. Mr. WALLACE proposed a Resolu tion, which had for its object to reduce the present Duties on Foreign Timber 10s. per load, and to im pose that Tax on American Colonial Timber, which, at present is subject to no Duty whatever. A consi derable discussion took place upon the Resolution, which was ultimately adopted, though with a de claration on the part of Mr. MARRYATT, Lord AL THORPE, Mr. BARING, and others, of their intention to oppose the proposition, whenever a Bill to carry it into effect should come before the House. We are requested to call the attention of the Public to a Bill Lately brought into the House of Commons by Mr. DICKENSON, and very shortly to be read a second time, which, if carried, will give very extra ordinary powers to Commissioners of Sewers. It ap pears intended to invest them with an arbitrary con troul over every navigable river in the kingdom ; authorizing them to put down locks, and dams, and sluices, wherever they please. If not exercised with extraordinary discretion indeed, such a power may be employed so as to prevent the flow of the tide up many rivers, and, consequently, occasion a consi derable deposit of sand, or other matters, at and near their points of junction with the sea, from the want of that proper reflux which must take place when no obstructions are offered. The subject is one which particularly demands the attention of all ports situa ted at the mouths of navigable rivers. Extensive alterations are making to the KtNo's Cottage in Windsor Park, which are to be completed before the approaching Ascot Races. A new suit of apartments are building for the accommodation of Sir B. BLOOMFIELD. A new lodge is likewise build ing at the entrance to the grounds. Her MAJESTY is expected to take up her residence at Cambridge House in the course of a day or two. Workmen have been busily engaged since Monday in improving the back part of the premises, and also in the interior of the mansion. The Duke and Duchess of CLARENcE visited Prin-1 cess SoPIIIA yesterday. _ _ _ I The Princess AUGUSTA spent Wednesday evening with the Princess SOPHIA, at her house in Connaught place. Yesterday, the Princess AUGUSTA visited the Duke and Duchess of CLAitexcE the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER; and the Duc hess of KENT. Yesterday, Prince LEOPOLD had a dinner party, and also a numerous party in the evening. It is understood that a good deal of communica tion and correspondence has taken place since some of the Treasury corps have shewn symptoms of be• coming refractory ; inquiries have been made, and threats-held out, that if they are aot more obedient to command, they will be scratched off the list, with out even the ceremony of a Court Martial. The Lords of the Treasury have issued instructions for discontinuing the practice of permitting wines and other articles, belonging to private individuals, to be sent home in transports from foreign stations. The Poor Rates have been greatly reduced in many parts of Sussex, in consequence of the low price of provisions. The Brewers in the country are generally falliqg their beer, and many Essex innkeepers have ' reduted hosting. kAP AL INTELik&a. • • • Poirrearomn, MARCH 29.-Wind W.S.W.—Airived his iesty's Shipl"biceutt, from the Mediterraneati.

PARIS, MARCH 25.—We have received from Tunis the afflict ing intelligence that a violent hurricane from the N.E. blew, without ceasing, from seven in the evening of the tith of February to nine or ten in the morning, and caused the greatest disasters in that Road. Many. .French and foreign trading vessels have perished. The following are the details :—The squadron of the Bey of Tunis has suffered an irreparable loss; the shore is covered with the remains of ships, and above 1,500 dead bodies of sea men have been picked up on it. The country is in the greatest consternation, and trade feels sensibly the losses occasioned by ' this hurricane. The following vessels were wrecked in the Tunis Road :—A French brig, Captain Kieuller—a cabin-boy lost. A ditto, Captain San Martin—Captain and cabin-boy lost. A ditto bombardier, Captain lteuest. An English brig, Captain Cassar. An Austrian ditto, Captain Cannelick. A Spanish brig, Capt. Femenion—purser perished. A ditto, Captain Vinet. A Rus sian ditto, Captain Orland. A ditto, Captain Coplello. Two corvettes belonging to the Pacha of Egypt, one laden with beans, the other with corn. Nine vessels belonging to the Bey of Tunis. Of the 29 ships in the Roads, the following were saved:—The vessels of Captains Gemie, (French) ; Bufigo, Cevasco, (Sardi nian); Vaccatich, Viacello, (Austrian); Pozza, Cambari, and llastauzi, (Russian). The two last, and 3d and sth, had their vessels dismasted. The same storm wrecked an F.nglish ship; coming from Naples, with wine, on the coast of Bizerte; also two Maltese bombardiers, at Sous= ; and a Greek and a Spanl:h vessel, laden with corn, at Monestier. The Hastings Fishermen have laid up their boats, in consequence of the late affray with the Preventive Service, and the death of Stvaine. Many lives have been lost in dreadful affrays of a like nature. Mr. F—, the young Gentleman who was wounded in a duel at Ascot Heath on Monday, in consequence of a dispute at the Argyle. Rooms, as already stated, died onWednesday night. The ball, which had lodged in the left shoulder, was extracted, but mortification ensued, and baffled all medical aid. The deceased was of a mo,t respectable family in Devonshire, on the Staff of the Army, and 22• years of age. The typhus fever has lately made its appearance in Dumfries. In one house the father and mother of four children, all lying ill at the same time, have fallen victims to this insidious malady. The children have since been removed to the Infirmary.. Tuesday, a melancholy spectacle was witnessed in a field near Long Govan, Glasgow :—Two boys, one apparently seven, the other ten years of age, decently dressed in corduroy, with their school books, were discovered lying in a field, the one senseless, the other dead. They were carried to the house of David Dreg horn, vintner, where the usual means for resuscitation were tried, without effect, on the one. On the boards of one of the books is written " Daniel Hamilton." The 15th instant, the body of a man was observed lying at the bottom of " I loatson's Wed," a dark solitary eddy on the river Ken, in Galloway, and well known to the country people as the identical spot where a person of that name perished many years ago. From long immersion and other causes, the body had be come so much swollen and disfigured, that the person by whom 'it was first discovered Pelt considerable disinclination to venture • into the water ; but having given the alarm, he was immediately accompanied to the spot by two Gentlemen, who succeeded in extricating the corpse front the mass of sand and gravel in which it bad been left by the falling of the river. In the pockets of the deceased were found a watch, pencil,pentnife, &c. together with four numbers of the" Percy Anecdotes ." but there were no letters or papers that could lead to a knowledge of his name, and the *lunge in his features had been so great in the course of a few days, that the Gentlemen present found no small difficulty in recogni►ing a face once familiar to them both. At length, from a careful inspection of a seal attached to his watch, they were led to conclude that the deceased could be no other than Mr. Anthony M' Milian, late writer in Kirkcudbright, and atithor of several useful works, particularly " Tke Forms of Deeds," and " A Treatise on the Law relative to Justices of Peace;" and a Gentleman not more respected fur his extepsive reading, than his kind and obliging disposition. How this acci dent happened, no one can positively say; but as the de ceased left his father's house about eight days before, it is . supposed, that, while travelling in the direction of New Galin.. way, he had stumbled into the Ken, a good way above Hoat son s Wed, as his body bore evident marks of having floated a considerable space, and of having been in repeated contact whh the rocky channel of the river. Mr. J. Cmelhoeste, a respectable farmer at Waplode, has been committed to the County Jail of Lincoln, charged with the Wil ful Murder of his Wife. SCHOOL FOR THE INDIGENT BLIND.—The Annual Dinner of the above praisewot thy Institution was held yesterday evening in the lower room of the City et London Tavern, and was numerously attended. Sir CLAUDIUS STEPHEN HUNTER took the Chair, sup ported by several persons of rank and eminence. On the cloth being removed, and the usual standing toasts given, the Report of the last year's proceedings was read, and presented a most gratifying account of the labours of the Society. In the course of tl - e evening the healths of the Vice-President, Treasurer, Stewards, and Secretary, were drank, which called forth several able speeches in support of the Institu tion. A long list of subscriptions was read, and the company enjoled the festivities of the evening to a late hour. • CORN EICIONG; Maas -tars, Maws 30.—..Althcugh we here had no fresh arrivals since Monday, what Wheat remained over from Wednesday met very heavy sale this mornint, bat prices continue nominally as on Monday.
