Ministers hive carried the Army Estimates, though not without some trouble—the really pa- • triotic side of the House forced them to a dozen divisions one night, in order to prevent the voting away istutotis, at an hour when the requisite exa mination of their necessity was impossible. The honestest part of those who usually support the ad ministration, on this question forsook them, and wen Mr. Banks voted against them, bocause in his con science he considered a reduction at once desirable, from motives of necessary economy, and unattended with risk on account of the present state of Europe. —Still will they persist ? Is the lesson of revolu tions all around them; arising from the licentious and oppressive measures of the different European Governments thrown away upon the Cabinet of Carlton-house? We have been frequently accused of revolutionary inclinations—the reVerse is the fact —we, from afro. of such an event, would willingly prevail on the Government to forsake the path, a persistance in 41tich must unquestionably end in tumult and rebellion—in either entire despotism or uncurbed licentiousness. The motion fur a Committee to inquire into the dangerous precedent of the introduction of the mili • tary at the late Carlisle Election, has been carried. Deference for the House of Commons, and its "pri vileges," prevents our animadversions on one of the grossest attempts to invade the right of freedom of Election that we remember. Lord Castlereagh, with all his penchant for military parade and inter ference, did not dare to place his majority against so plain a question regarding the right of Electors, and the motion pissed without a diiision. A GLoatous EVENT has taken place—the revolt of the Picdmontese army, and the insurrection of the whole North of Italy against the invaders of Naples. " All Italy (says the letter whence we draw our information) is in a flame." In the ex.' tract which we have inserted will be found what ever could be learned on this most interesting subject, from a telegraphic despatch to the French ' I Government, which reached Paris on the afternoon of Wednesday, and was forwarded to Lor.don by I express. a PARIS, March 14: 5 p. m.—The mail has left l'aris, but the intelligence I have just received, from the best authority, is of so decisive a character, that I lose not a moment in conveying it to you by express. The die is cast! The fate the Justrian army is sealed ! ! A telegraphic despatch has been reeeivLd by the Government annoancing that the whole of the Piednientese troops have arisen, and demanded a free representative constitution, requir ing at the same time they should be allowed to march against the Austrians. From the necessary conciseness and obscnrity of a telegraphic despatch, I cannot distinctly collect whether compliance has been refused to the first or second clause of the de- Aland of the Piedmontese soldiery. it is imagined lANGE, Aiancir Seville, 35—Gibraltar, 301,, Leghorn, 461—Genoa, 43i Alalta,4i—Venice, Y 7 60 ()pork), 491—Bahia, 35 Rio Jaileilu, 49} Pale' nio, 115 Dublin, per cent.

It is concluded, however, that the reply of the S.cr dinian Government has not proved satisfactory, inr the despatch distinctly states that the Piedinontese army, to the number of 40,000 men, had marched. Prince Carignano was sent after then to endeavour to bring them back to their duty, but with littie hopes of success. The accounts conclude with theN remarkable words—' ALL ITALY IS IN A FLAISKii INSURRECTION IN PIEDMONT. - The following intelligence was received yester day by express:— BULLETIN. Paats, March 15.—1 t has been impossible fur the Government longer to conceal the events at Turin, of which it received information by a telegraphic ' dispatch. It was on the 10th that the garrison of Alexan dria, 10,000 strong, proclaimed the Spanish Con stitution. At this news the King of Sardinia wished to march the troops that were at Turin, but they refused, crying, " The Constitution of the Cortes for ever !" The Prince of Carignan and the General Giflmger were sent to Alexandria, but on their arrival there cried, " The Constitution of the Cortes for ever !" and placed themselves at the head of the movement. In this crisis the King of Sardi- 4 Ma thought to calm the ferment by offering to grant the French charter, but it has been refused. All the garrisons in Pic:llama have followed the example of that of Alexandria. We have certain information that the Prince of Carignan and Gen. Giflenga, at the head of 25,0001, have marched for . Milan, and it is believed that they would enter that city this day, 15th March. The cry of the Pitalmontese troops is not only that of" Viva la Constitution !" but also that of" Death to the Austrians 1" It is not doubted that Genoa is constitutional at this moment, and that all Italy will be so in lass than ten days. The news of t'aese events has produced the great. est sensations at Paris; the Ultras are in the most complete despondency. All eyes arc turned to wards Dauphene, and towards Lyons. The movement at Turin was calculated to break out on the 15th, and not before, but the arrests hastened it by five days. ST. Guts's logo FREE SCROOLS.—Yesterday being St. Patrick's Day, the children of the St. Gile.'s Irish Free Schools in George Street made a must respectable appearance; they were conducted from the school house by Mr. Ftnigan, the superin tendant, to the houses of some of their principal benefactors, where, by hearty cheers, they expressed their thankfulness and gratitude. About twelve o'cntek they were pubiicly examined in the school house, in the presence of a number of distinguished ladies and gentlemen, patrons to the institution, who expressed the utmost satisfaction lit their clean, healthy appearance turd improvement; indeed it was truly pleasing to 61:2 the young Ilibernians vicing one with the other in the repetition of select portions of the Holy Scriptures, such as on the et il of lying, swearing, stealing, and their duty to God, to the to Tags • trates, and their neighbours. Their proficiency, riot only in spelling and reading, but also in arithmetic, exceeded our most sanguine expiretatioas. At two o'clock they ail sat down to a plentiful dinner, and enjoyed the returning sweets of another St. Patrick's Day. We are sorry to dad, on inquiry, that the funds of this praiseworthy institution are not in so flourishing a condition as the laueable design demands, :Ind we therefore most earnestly recommend its further support to the Immane consi deration of a generous public.—ln the evening a numerous assemblage of noblemen and gentlemen sit down to an excellent dinner at the City of Londe m Tavern ; the Duke cf Wellington in the chair. The children were introiluirad after dinner, a large collection was made, and till a late hour pleasure, life, anti conviviality, were the "general order." As some men were digging last week in a field adjoining the Edgcware-rood, a short distance from Kilburn, they discovered, about 10 feet below the surface of the ground, a large stone coffin, containing two skeletons—one of considerable dimensions, the other apparently the skeleton of a child. Also were found near the same place, several ancient coins; one or two of the reign of Henry VIII. which ren ders it very probable that the remains were deposited about that period. On the same spot there formerly stood a nunnery of the Benedictine order, founded by Herbert, Abbot of NVestruinster, in the reign of Henry I. and demolished in the fifteenth century. On Saturday morning a little befcre one o'clock, a fire•broke out in St. John's-street, Clerkenwell.— It raged violently till the engines arrived, when it was speedily extinguished by the activity of the fire men, after having destroyed the horse in which it and damaged the originated, lower part of one of the houses next door. 81 NAPLES, FES. 20.—1 n the sitting of the 16th inst. M. S.Nuola demanded that the Bishops should be required to ordain public prayers during three days, and to read the collect at mass, which is used in time of war.—(Approved.) On the proposition of M. Poerio, in the name of the Extraordinary Commission, the Assembly adopted six Decrees, of which the following are the principal • enact n ten tes 1. To permit foreigners to fight under the national banners. 2. In case the army shall pass the frontier, to consider all Italians, without execution, as brothers and friends. 3. To establish for Sicily al'rosisiunal Comaliossion of Govern ment, composed of seven Members, to be presided by a General or Aliseistrate. 4. Tu place 52 battalions of militia at the disposal of the Greernment, to be employed against the enemy. 3. To render liable to march, where urgency may require, seven battalions of the Abruzzes Legion. ti. To create Provincial Assemblies, composed of landed pro. prietors, to provide subsistence for the troops. The sum of 850,000 silver ducats was granted to the Nlinister of War, to maintain, during three • months, 100,000 men, and 5,000 horse. In the sitting of the 17th, the Deputy Luca in. - formed the assembly that the Prince Regent and the Prince de Salerno having determined to join the army, the necessary funds should immediately be furnished, that their departure might not be de layed.—(Sent to the Extraordinary Commission.) A message was read from the Minister of War stating that he had taken steps for forming Guerilla corps throughout the kingdom. Yesterday the Spanish ambassador received an extraordinary courier 'from Madrid, which capital he left on . tit:: 4th instant. Five thousand Catalonians - volunteer their services to partake the fate of their Neapolitan brethren. A 74, a 48-gun frigate, and several smaller vessels of war, will, in the course of the present month, arrive in the ports of Naples front Cadiz. Some individuals were arrested here in the course of yesterday and to-day, who were circulating false news as to the Mrce of the enemy, the feebleness of our troops, and the state of destitution in which • they said were several of our regiments. Verbal Note of M. the Chevalier de Fontenay, French Charge d'Affaires:— " M. the Chevalier de Funtenay, Charge d'Affidres of his Most Christian Majesty, in a private audience, which was granted to him on the same day (the 9th day of February) by his Royal Highness the Prince ttegent, verbally declared to the Prance that the Mini:aces Plenipotentiary of the King, his master, at Laybach, had inhumed him, that they had adhered to the common instructions sent to the Ministers of Austria, Hussite. and Prussia, in the hope of being thereby enabled to avert the perils which threaten the Neapolitan nation. 3:. the Charge d'Affitires added, that he had orders toco-operate with the above mentioned Ministers, on every occasion when their proceedings might have in view means of pew:hat:on in favour of the King nun the kingdom of Naples, and to spare the country the inevit able evils which war and useless resistance would entail upon it. (A trite cop .) " Tile Duke de GALLO." • `• In rvpoy to the note of the Commander Neapo3 titan Minister of Forei:m Atrairs to/ ieferito, relatively to the French squadron in the Bay of Naples, theC icy:diet de Funtenay, • after stating that its presence is necessary, front time difficult commercial interests of French subjects, adds that • he does not hesitate further to inthrm his Exceliency, that the Duke de Gallo has received cut assurance that time French squadron will continue to perform the pacific duties prescribed to it for the interest of the subjects of his Most Christian Majesty ; and not only that, bat that the tatty and dignity of the Royal Family shall not be • compromised by circumsuunes which it neither wishes nor ought to tore-see. -•- It is with great satisfaction we find that a •select committee has been appointed to take into conside ration the act of Geo. ll 1. tier regulating the make ing and the sale of bread. The report of this com mittee will no doubt be extremely important, after hearing the necessary evidence of the facts relating to the trade, after the threshing out of the corn until the bread is made and sold. The cheapness of wheat, while the farmer is nut paid for growing the • sante, is no advantage to the consumer; tbr though wheat at 141, a loud, the quartern loaf was kept up at lod. when it ought to be no more than 701 It would be well to ascertain the profits that are got from the time the corn is sold by the tarmer until gets into the hand of the baker ; the two latter it is believed benefit the leas:, when they .ought in tit t o have the most profit. There was a county meeting held at Cambridge on Tuesday last, for the purpose of petitioning this House of Cummins tin a refJria in the represer tot tion, and tin the restoration of her Majesty to her rights and privjeges. The meeting was very name runs and highly respectable. The Duke of Bedford, the Marquis of Tavistock, Mr. Gunning, and Mr. Pryme, were among the speakers in favour of the resolutions, which they entbreed with mueli vigour and ability. A feeble opposition was made by Gen. Nall and Dr. Chaty ; but the original motion was carried amidst immense applause—and the meeting dispersed after givim , three cheers for the Queen.. A person, we believe, allied to a most opulent family in Berkshire, and to a late member for Wale lingfind, educated at Westminster School, of no common attainments, and in the opinion of the late Dr. Horsley, as well us Dr. Vincent, once of great public promise, a member of the University of Ox ford, and a Barrister at law, is now a pauper upon the parish of Camberwell, and WAS lately begging his bread in Wales.
