ton Don. SUNDAY, AUGUST 6. The Paris Papers of Tuesday, quote a contradic tion in the Brussels Oracle, of a rumour current in the Low Countries, that in consequence of a com motion at Venice, Milan, and Genoa, the French troops in Flanders had received orders to march to the frontiers of the Alps. The Revolution in Na ples has evidently occasioned much anxiety in thc Austrian Government. Count Metternich has re- Gently been very rapid in his movements. lie has returned with speed to Vienna from his journey into Saxony, where he intended to remain eight day s longer, but was hurried away in consequence of despatches of the highest importance having arrived at Vienna from Milan, which occasioned the Count to be sent for express. Immediately on his return from Cobourg to the Austrian capital, after consult ing with Ministers, he again set off to have an in terview with the Emperor Francis at Persenherg. Couriers are constantly passing and repassing be tween Vienna and Italy. It appears that a number of officers of the ancient army of Italy, many of whom were on half-pay, who resided in the Aus trian Italian provinces, have suddenly disappeared. The circumstance has riven rise to many conjectures and much alarm. The division of the Chancellerie of State in Vienna, charged with the affairs of Italy is actively engaged, and in consequence of the in surrections now so prevalent, it is remarked that the Austrian Government will not be wanting in energy at this conjuncture. It would, however, be much better to have recourse to conciliation than the sworn. On Monday night a dreadful fire broke out at some wine and brandy vaults at La Rapee, Rue de Berry in Paris, which made a rapid and desolat ing progress, and spread consternation throughout the capital. Magazines and houses fell a prey to the conflagration, to the extent of nearly three quar ter of a learee. Among other the ue- v THE NATIONAL REGISTER tion of 50,000 barrels of wine is mentioned, and the damages arc s►id to exceed several millions of franks. The military and firemen promptly arrived soon after the fire broke out, and laboured with praiseworthy zeal to subdue the destructive element. For some time the engines were supplied from a large pool of wine, accumulated by staving the hogsheads. Several persons unfortunately perished, among whom, it is said, is an officer of the Royal Guard. On Tuesday morning, when the Journals were despatched, the fire was still raging, though under less alarming circumstances. The Quotidienne mentions a rumour, that it was the work of some wicked and malevolent incendiaries. The Five per Cents. on Monday, were, 79 f. 35 c. Bank Stock, 1,377, 50 c. The Gazelle de France contains u very partial account of the Revolution in Naples, but communi cates very little in addition to those details which have already appeared. It seems that the Pat7iots at Nola and Avelino were joined, on the night of the sth inst. by the Carboaarl of Naples, and oU g ;tl the King to promise to proclaim the Constitttion within a certain time. Ins Majesty was abut to depart for Trieste, but relinqui,hed his intention in consequence of the supplication of the Heredhry Prince. Such persons as were detained in prson for their political opinions were enlarged by the Patriots, and carried in triumph through the streets. The news from Spain is peculiarly gratifying. The Courier Francois gives particulars of the proceedi Igo of the Cortes to the 13th, which have not been published elsewhere. M. Berbaben proposed, fiat in the Calendar, after the name of the Saint to whin the 9th of July is consecrated, should be added these words—" The day of the political regeneratior of the Spanish Monarchy, and the first of the conai tutional Reign of Ferdinand Vll.."—Public bray ra are almost daily offered up to Heaven, in alunst every part of France, for the happy delivery of he Duchess of Berri, and far the birth of a Prince.— The proceedings in the Court of Correctional Policy between Gen. flonadieu, on the one part, and sone inhabitants of Grenoble on the other, have corn• mcnced. The General complains that these inhe harts of Grenoble calumniate his character in a petition which they had some time since presentel to the Chamber of Deputies. The trial is looked to in Paris with some degree of interest, as it it likely to throw new light upon the occurrences rt Grenoble, which have been hitherto involved in mystery. Gen. Donadicu will plead his cause in in person. An article from Vienna states, that the Persian Ambassador arrived in that capital on tie 13th inst. His Excellency is expected to make a short stay, and resume his route to Teheran, by Way of Petersburgh. Accounts front Madrid of the 15th inst. announce the arrest of the Curate Ortolozze, who, it is said, is implicated in the conspiracy recently discovered at Seville. This Ecclesinstie, under the late system, was a zealous advocate fur the King, over whom, it is alledged, he exercised great influence. We have received Germ:.n, Hamburgh, Dut and other Papers, from which we find that the revolution which has been so happily effected at Naples, has produced a very lively sensation in every part of the Continent. In Germany, from 'the peculiar political circumstances of that country, and the enlightened state of the public mind upon the subject of political rights, the effect of so hfil liant an event must be electiical, nod as the revo lution in Naples was evidently produced by that which regenerated Spain, we doubt not that the example of Naples will not fail to operate upon the spirit of some other country. The Vienna pelvis, as might be expected, express all the angry feelings of the Austrian Cabinet upon a subject whi.ll so intimately affects its must important interests.— Austria ;oust uecessarily be aware that should the spirit of political freedom be once roused in Italy by the :,uccessful example . of . the Neapolitans, her domination in that country will prove of shirt con tinuance, and it is evident from the tone of the Vienna palre,g, that the Aortritin Ocvernment . .... .. . 253 ment extremely that Ferdinand of Naples shoal.' have with such 1 7 ttle hesitation consented to the wishes of his subjects, and promised them the blessings of a representative constitution, when he might, as they believe, have sailed with his fleet to the Adriatic, and have sorat returned to Naples with an Austrian army,. and restored the affairs of state to their former situation. A Dutch mail arrived yesterday morning with papers to the 3d inst. A severe shock of an earth quake was felt on the morning of the 19th last at Insist-ea. A similar shock was felt at Schwartz on the 17th, but no lives were lust at either place. On Friday morning, a review took place at Hounslow. The weather was unfavourable in the early part of the morning ; notwithstanding which, the troops, consisti ng o f the 12th and 19th Lancers and the 10th Dragoons, appeared on the ground by a little after eight o'clock. The King surprised the crowd of titshionable spectators by the earliness of his arrival. His Majesty left the cottage at Wind sor so as to appear on the ground by about ten mi. flutes or u quarter past nine o'clock. His Majesty having mounted a charger, and being immediately surrounded with a numerous staff (among whom we observed the Dukes of York and Cambridge, the Duke of ‘Vellington, Sir William Chrigreve, and Sir G. Saville), the troops passed leatbre his Ma jesty successively in single file, in squadron, and in column. They went through a variety of ovule tians, all of which were marked by perfection of discipline. When the manoeuvres were concluded, his Majesty drove off in a plain green-bodied coach From the unexpected earliness of the hour in which the review took place, and the number of fashion able carriages of all kinds which were crowding the road towards the Heath when the troops were re tiring, it may be fairly calculated that one-half of those who intended to be there were disappointed. The Queen happened to be driving from town as the King was returaing, and it is said the carriages of their Majesties passed each other at the Kensing ton end of Hyde Park. The other troops forming the household brigade of cavalry, and consisting of the two regiments of Life Guards and the Royal Horse Guards (blue), were reviewed at the same time yesterday morning. Wednesday a gentleman of Manchester visited Knutsford Races, and while on the course was rob- . bed of his pocket-book, containing two bills, one of 1151. the other '2 51 . and 9.1. in Bank of England notes. He very soon discovered his loss, returned to Manchester the same evening, and next morning as soon as the banks were opened, gave intiomation of the robbery, together with the particulars of the two bills. In less than twenty minutes after he had left the Bank of Mr. Mottrara, in Brownstreet, the Boots from the White Bear Inn presented the larger one (1151.) to be discounted : lie was of course interrogated as to the manner in which he became possessed ()fit, when he unhesitatingly declared that he had been desired to get cash for it by a person then waiting at the inn. A police officer was sent , . for, who accompanied him to the White Bear„apd the individual described was there found, and im mediately taken into custody. He was committed tin. trial, on Thursday, to Lancaster Castle. A meeting of the inbabitants of Gloucester is ap pointed by the Right Worshipful the Mavor, to consider the propriety of presenting an address of -- congratulation to the Queen on her return to. this country, and of' petitioning Parliament against the further prosecution of those measures instituted . against her. Mr. Adolphus, the barrister, has published a let: - ter, diselaitnie,- ire• part or share its writing or-pub. ! . haling a pamphlet, entitled, " The Royal Exile; Memoirs of her Majesty Caroline, Queen Consort of . Great Britain, Sc." written, as asxrted in the book, by "J. Adolphus, E-q. &c." It appears that Mr. Adolphus never saw the pamililet until it was sent to him to Lewes. A duel was fcatg•ht on Wednesday morning early, in a meadow, four allies from Farnham, between a Mr. E—t—d, a gentleman of Kmtunc, in Hampshire ; and Mr. R—t—d, a half-pay officer. fhe dispute originated at a race ball, and this was the first of their meeting. Mr. E. was wounded on the rt,;lit t side, and the ball could not be extracted , but he was alive on Thursday morning. A family dispute, it is said, was the first cause of d:sa:;rq.-entent. A Roman Monument discovefed.—They write from • Besancon as fiAlows:—" The researches made by • excavation at Mendreace, in the Department of Doubs, have put us in p• - ,s,:einn of a fine Roman tnonnuaent, part of which, a:ready laid open, may give an idea of its importame. This monument is an amphitheatre, which would contain 9.0,000 or e. 5,000 spectators conv‘aiently seated. The wells, of hewn. stone, aro in the finest preservation. Among other trmaiir: are found small bronze medals of Coustantke the Great, of Crispin, and of the • younger Cs-re1.:1.611e. The are also fragments of pottery and of class 'vessels.
