oStscrtpt. LONDON, NIONDAY, FERRUARY 19. Tierce o'clock, p tn. Despatches by express have arrived, with the im portant intelligence that the main division of the Austrian army, consisting of sixty thousand men, broke from its quarters on the 29th ult on the right bank of the Po, with orders to march on Naples.— The intelagence in the French Papers from Frank lyn mentions the crossing of din river by the Aus trians, but yet it does not :mticipate war, though it is said, the military OCCUpaqun of the Peninsula is determined upon by the Allies. This is most alarming and revolting information fur the liberty and independence of the Continent, and the peace and happiness of Europe. The express received mentions that a manifesto has been issued, announc ing the invasion will not be made by Austria as a separate power, but as a member, and in the name of the Holy Alliance. On that basis all intention is disclaimed of occupying Naples with a view of territorial aggrandisement, but solely for the purpose of dictating such form of constitution to the Neapo litans as may be consistent with the safety of their neighbours. Never was there a greater outrage offered to the feelings of a nation, nor one that calls more for a firm, a determined, and taanly resistance. An outline of the tbrin of government meant to be imposed as the ultimatum of the Allied Powers has been dispatched to Naples fur the consideration of the Parliament, who will be allowed tt very short period, some letters say only two days, to deliberate on the proposition. Meantime the Austrian army will advance to !tome, to receive the answer of the Neapolitan Tarliament. The proi.osition to the Parliament of Naples is signed by the Emperors of Russia and Austria, and the King of Prussia. It is mentioned, but we feel disposed to withhold our credence on that bead, that the name of the King of,Naples is also affixed to it. Thus, after a peace of six years, the flame of war is wantonly on the eve of being re-kindled in Europe and if Naples should possess the power, which we sincerely hope she has, of bearing up against Austria, it may be long before it is again extinguished. It may, however, afford a lesson to Allied Sovereigns, not to meddle with the internal affairs of other countries, and produce those precise efkets in their own dominions, which they arc so very anxious to avoid. INSTALLATION of the PORTUGUESE CORTES. Lisa" J. 25.—T0-day the Deputies to the Cartes assembled, in order to arrange, in this pre paratory meeting, the preliminary steps to the In stallation, which is fixed fur to-morrow. The first object to-lay was the choice of a President pro tern pore, which fell on the Archbishop of Bahia : then a Secretary was chosen, and a Commission to verify the power of the Deputies. A form of oath was - also drawn up, to be taken on the Holy Gospels, at the solemn mass which will he pettitrined, with all • the pomp worthy of this most solemn act, in the church of St. Nlary, which will cummenco at nine in the morning. When this religious ceremony is terminated, the Government will proceed with the Deputies to the Hall of Session to instal the Cortes; after the installation, the Government will draw, remaining in the exercis.; of its functions, till the Cortes have named a new Government, that there may be nu interregnum.

The whole city was splendidly illuminated in the evening, iu honour of the national solemnity of this memorable day. lATELLIGENCE. SATURDAY FBB. 10 . LI BIA. ON LADY C. W 11.0 FTESLEY. THE KING v.

Lias and Lee, admonishing them nut to convene the meeting, and directing them to deliver up the, keys of the church "on pain of eccle siastical libel."

OUT market was very largely supplied with Wheat this morn • ing, having, since this day week, had several good arrivals, but the demand was far from being brisk, and the finest samples submitted to 4 reduction of Ys. per quarter. The supply of Barley was also large, but there was little disposition on the part of the consumers to purchase, and that article experienoed a decline of 2s. per qr. Oats, not being notch in demand, were Is. per qr. cheaper. Peas and Beans were also on the decline, and, upon the whole, the market, although well supplied with grain. was very heavy. There was a great quantity of Flour at market (i 6,000 sacks, exclusive of the arrivals front the West Country), but that article is on the decline, and probably wiJ be much cheaper. CURREN I . (+NH.
