nr .l ,lf7°' - ~ .• P 6 Vodtsicrtpt LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 26. Three o'clock, p.m. Paris papers of Thursday last have been received by express. The Monitekr contains an extract from the first bulletin of the Austrian army. On the 7th inst. the Neapolitans gave the Austrians battle, and boldly advanced against them in three columns —two columns manceuvred on the heights near Rieti, and threatened to turn the Austrian advanced guard, under the orders of General Geppert, and it is acknowledged that the movements of the pa triotic troops were well conducted and the point of attack well chosen, and yet these are the troops which we have been vauntingly told would never venture to lace an Austrian army. it is evident, from the partial statement of the bulletin, that the Austrians suffered a much greater loss than they think it prudent to acknowledge. It is also evident that their light troops were surprised, and were exposed to a sharp and galling fire. A battle com menced at noon, and it became so serious that Gen. Walmoden found it necessary to order his reserve, which was posted in the rear, to march to the sup port of Gement! Geppert. The Austrians acknJw ledge to have lost only firty men, but it is much more likely that they have lost ten times the num ber. It was the approach of night, we believe, that occasioned the Neapolitans to retire, and when the real facts are published, we are persuaded it will appear that the Austrians have suffered severely, and that the commencement of the campaign has been most auspicious to the patriots. They have voluntarily given battle to the flower of the Austrian army, and the Austrian account of the transaction sbews that many important facts has been concealed, which will be supplied when the Neapolitan ac count comes to be published. There have been some animated discussions in the French Chamber of Deputies, on the subject of the French govern ment, publishing the bulletins of the enemy. Such is tke epithet applied by the liberates to the Aus trians, which accords with the feelings of the l'eo pie of France, if it does not with the Members of the Administration. M. Chauvelin pointedly ob served, that the conduct of ministers justified the distinction which the Austrian declaration made between England and France, in stating that the latter adhered to the system of the allies, though with certain restrictions which had not been made public. General Foy vehemently attacked the tor tuous policy of the ministry. The events in Italy, he predicted, " would kindle a general war in Eu rope. The barbarians of the North were once more pouring their hordes upon the South; and the con stitutional nations of the south, Spain, Naples, France and England, must unite to resist the in vasion." IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. SATURDAY. MARCH 24. The Lords Commissioners having taken their seats at 20 _ irdiautes before four, the Lord Chatiiellor directed the Deputy Usher of the Black Rod to inform the Commons that their presence was requited in the house, in order to hear his Majesty's assent given by commission to certain bills. The commissioners were tne Lord Chancellor. the Earl of Shaftesbury, and Lord Melville. In a few minutes the Speaker, attended by the officers of the house, arrived when the Royal assent was declared to the following bills —The Mutiny Desertion Bill, the Marine Forces Regulat ion Bill, the Cochineal and Indigo Bill. Silk Manufacturer Printers' Bill, the Indemnity Bill, the New South Waltrs Dealers' Bill. the Nova Scotia Duties Bill, the Transportation or Offenders' Bill, the Lunatic,' Stock Transfer Bill, the Ju.tices of the Peace of the county of Northumberland to build a Gaul Bill, the Lei cester Gas Bill, the Bristol Gas Bill, and several private local bills. After the Speaker retired, the house resolved itse:f into a com mittee on the Husbandry Horses Bill, which was agreed to without any amendment. The Court of King's Bench Dispatch Bill was read a third time and passed. Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. SATURDAY, MARCH 24. About half past three the Speaker and the members present were summoned to attend in the house of peers to hear the royal assent given to sundry public and private bills, which are named In the lords. Adjourned. Extract of a letter from the Island of St. Thomas, dated the 2 I st ult. We have the following intelligence from Maracaibo, which bas caused a great depression here in business, and has suspended thewounierous orders executing for the supply of the Main.— The place, it seems, was under the command of a Royalist officer sad a garrison of 3000 men. Provisions being wanted in the town, the soldiers were dispatched by the commandant to pro cure them front the neighbouring country. In their absence a b ely of armed non were admitted into the town by the Royalist officers. They unntediately seized upon the fort, and !reclaimed the town free. Of the soldiers who formerly garrisoned the WWI a great proportion declared for the independents. We cannot a.crrtsin whtther this hits taken place with the concur. renee of Bolivar or not; but from my know ledge of his character, 1 am judicial to conclude that it has not: if su. the place will be restored, and all quictly settle I ; but otherwise, as it is an in- Raction of the armistice of Truaillo. the Maui will be again plunged e..to bostiiities."

We have had several fresh arrivals of Wheat since this day week from our own coast, but there was not a very brisk demand this morning, except for fine Wheat, which obtained last week's prices; a reduction of from is. to Ys. per qr. took place in the inferior descriptions. In Barley these was but little business doing, and tiro supply being small, our last prices were sup• ported. We were hugely supplied with Oats. the demand for which was not brisk, consequently that article was la. per qr. lower. Beans fully supported our last prices.
