Lord lioncirEnsit's Dispatches,. containing the oflirinl Capitulation of the Neapalitan territory, and the surrender of the orrprials and shipping to the Al lies, were received by Ministers yesterday, and pub lished this forenoon in the following Sapp/en/ant to the Gazette of yesterday. We had hopes that the surrender of the shipping and arsenals was made to the British alone, that we alight have some share of it the spoils of King JOACHIM," as the Gazette de France calls them, in return for the assistance we itave given to put him down; but all the surrenders „Mt made cepitularly " for the purpose of being made over to his Majesty King FERDINAND the IVII" of Sicily, our worthy Ally. Gaeta, Penara, and Ancona, u Huh are block aded by the land and sea forces of the Allied Powers, not being in the line of operations of the .army under the General in Chief Carrnscoca, he de clares himself unable to decide upon their fate, as the Officers commanding them are independent, and not under his orders. SUPPLEMENT TO THE LONDON GAZETTE OF TUESD A Y. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7. Foreign-Office, June 7. The following copy and extract of dispatches from Lord Burghersh, his Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court of Flo rence, have been received by Viscount Castlereagh, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Fo reign Affairs. Rome, Way 16, 1813. Y LORD,—I have received a letter from Captain Catnpbell, of the Tremendous, dated Naples the 13th instant, in which he •tatec, that in consequence of the arrangements made Al ith me at Florence, and transmitted to your Lordship in a former dispatch, be had proceeded off the hay of Naples. fle stated on his arrival there, to the Neavolitmr Government, that unless the ships of war were sot-. rendered to him, he would bombard the town. A French frigate appearing at that moment, Captain Campbell proceeded towards her, and followed her into Gaeta. He returned on the 11th with his squadron, con sisting of his own ship the Tremendous, the Alcmene tVipte, and the Partridge sloop of war. By a letter rout the Duke de Gallo, he was requested not to proceed against the town ; Prince Cariati was sent by Madam Murat, to negotiate for the surrender vf the ships, and Captain Campbell dictated the follow ing terms which were agreed to. _ . Ist. The ships of the line in the Illy to be given up. • 2d. The Arsenal of Naples to he delivered over, and Commissioners appointed to take au inventory of its actual state. 3d. The ship of the line on the stocks, with all the materials for its completion, to be also given up and guaranteed. These captures to be at the joint disposition of the Government of England and of Ferdinand the Fourth of Naples. In return, Captain Campbell engaged not to act against the town of Naples. Captain Campbell was in possession of the two ships of the line when he n rote to me at eight I'. M. on the 13th ; they were to proceed the neat day to Palermo or Malta. I beg to congratulate your Lordship on this suc cess; it reflects the highest credit on Captain Camp bell, by whose energy and activity it has been ob tained. The feeling of the inhabitants of Naples is excellent ; a riot in the town against the Government Lad been feared, but :,ince the arrival of the British squadron, more order bad been established. On the 13th instant, General Bianchi, with the grentos! part 3f his troops, w as.at Aquila. Ilis ad vanced guail occupied Salinona, where his bead quarters were to be established the following day. , General Mohr, having pursued tlte enemy in Itis retreat by Fenno, &c. after leaving two thousand tie hundred men to blockade Pescara, joittej Ge neral Bianchi, on the 13th, at Popoli. General Nugent moved yestcadey from Ceinatio toward , : St. Grrrnatto. Since the battle of Toh:ntino, the enemy has re treated without showing the least disposition to make any resistance ; his army has suffered most considerably by desertion. Ce:ieral Bianchi is moving by Solmona, Castel di Sangro, and hernia; his advanced guard was to be at Cast,4 Satigro on the 14th. Gener a l Bianchi states Marshal Moral's army to have been redu-ed, when it passed on the 11th, to twelve thousated infantry and three thousand cavalry. General Bianchi will march from Isernia, by Campo Basso, upon Benevento, and thence on Naples. _ _ I have the honcar to be, &r. ityrtroiEnsa. The Rs. !fon. Vi.errint C , wlor:!:), , et, K.

Extract of a Di-patch from fiord rt , resetsit to Viscount Ca.stle tetiO, dateJ Fenno, Nl.ty I have the honour of congratulating your Lord ship on the termination of the war with the lioverri merit of Naples, closed by the Military Convention I herewith transmit, by which the kingdom, its fortresses, arsenals, military force and resources, are, almost without exception, surrendered to the Allies, to be returned to du lawful Sovereign of the country, Ferdinand IV. After the successes obtained by General Nugent, and stated in my last dispatch, General Bianchi re ceived on the 18th, a message from the Duke de Gallo, requesting au interview, to communicate to Arr. 'lilt STATESMAN. him propositions he • was charged with from Marshal Murat. A meeting fnr the next day Wks appoihted on the rat of 1E11014 . , General ISianciii requested me to attend it, and in the absence of the British Com manders in Chief, both by sea and laud, I con sented. met therefore the Duke de Gallo with General 13iatichi, on the mortihvg of the 19,h. Cie conversation which ensued with that Minister, led :o no odic' result than in having given the Allies an opportunity of swing in him the grounds, on which alone they would ctiglge to arrest their mili tary movements._ _ _ . stutA that lie had no antlioritv to treat on any basis of the itatcro so announced to him, the Duke de G.illo *curried In Naples, having re ceived, however, an assurance, that any proposi tions General Carracosa might wish to make, should, in the course of tloa folloling day, be received. The meeting with General Carrascosa took place this morning. General NiopOerg, on the part of Austria, General Collette, on that of Naples, and myself, is tire absence of the British Commanders in Chief, negociated the Military Convention. On the part of Naples, propositions were at first made tota:lv inadmis s ible; on our part the abdication of Marshal Murat was insisted upon. General Col lette wished to secure for that person a safe retreat t . France, but findit r , that such was totally impossible, and having declare d that he bad no authority from Marshal Murat to treat with regard to him, the Con vention, such as your Lordship will receive it, was agreed to. It is inaposs:ble to conclude this dispatch, without calling your Lordship's attention to tilt manner in which the campaign, now terminated, has been car ried on by General Bianchi. The activity with which he has pushed his operations Is almost with out example. The constant successes which hare attended his arms, are crowned in the satisfaction of his being able to re-establish the authority of the legitimate Sovereign, without those misfortunes to the country attendant on protracted military opera. Lions. With regard to Marshal Murat, be is stated to be in Naples, General Bianchi has declared that he must consent to go to the Austrian Hereditary States, where his future situation will be fixed; no answer whatever has been received from him. (Iter.- follow the Articles of Convection, the terms of which have already been made public.) Brussels Papers to the 4th instant, arrived this forenoon. They prepare us for a speedy commence ment of hostilities on the northern frontier, where the hustle is increasing, and a formidable column of the Russian troops are said to have arrived. The follon lug are the ar•icles thus received : GHENT, N 1.- l'he Secretary of the Russian General Baron de Sicken, sets out to-morrow to join the Russian army, of which the first column, of 30,(X)0 men, was to arrive on the 30th upon the Rhine, before•li eh). A second column follows close behind, as well as all the other corps of that brave army, which is coming from the remote regions of the N , )rth to the assistance of the South of Europa. The union of all these forces on the Rhine announces the speedy commencement of hostilities. The Duke de Fettle, as Minister of War to Louis XVIII. has ordered all officers and persons attached to the army, now at Ghent, without a special per mission, to return to their cantonments without de. lay ; those who shall arrive here in future cannot re. main above 24 hours. Ar.ovr, JUNE I.—Yesterday the Duchess of An gouleme came to A:ust to see all the troops of the King of France, which were assembled there to be re►iewed by the Duke de Berri. Her Royal High. ness was accomp:inied by his Royal Highness Mon sieur, and by the Duke of Wellington. NUREMBERG, MAY 26.—The King of Prussia has ordered hi; Guards, united with the Russian Guards, to proceed %rill' all haste to Aix-la-Chapelle. BRUNSWICK, MAY N.—Another Prussian corps of re,erve, of 15 or 20,000, will be formed in the environs of Et forth. Numerous waggons with am munition daily pass through Berg on the route to IVesel. 131tWiSELS, JUNE 2.—His Majesty leaves this city to-morrow to go to Liege, and thence to Maestsicht, ovi Lie Kay to the Hague. Marshal Victor, Duke of Benun°, passed through ycs!Prday, frnin Aix-la-Chapelle, and going to Ghent. lluesnr:Nr, MA 1 . 2 4.—By theaccounts from Vienna, it appears, we may flatter ourselves with the hope of seeing the King return to Dresden before the end of this month. The Prussian Authorities, it is a:firmed, have already received orders from Prince Ilarclenberg to be n-ady to quit this capital. It is supposed that the Prussian seat of Government in Saxony will be fixed at Nlersehourg, while the Com missioners of the two Sovereigns will make the parti tion of the debts, and draw the line of demarcation between the two States. RoMe, MAY 13.--The Pope is expected home immediately after Whitsuntide. General Nugent has caused the arms of the Pope to be put up at Porte Coro. In a secret recess in Mnrat's coach there have been found money and jewels to the value of two millions. The Austrian Minister attending the army, Count Sauran, has ordered the Provisional Government in the three dopartments of Rino, the Lower Po, and the Rubicon, to be continued. On the other hand, Urbino and the Marches seem to be restored to the Papal Government. 13En LT NT, MA Y 16.—The new Constitution for the Proscian Monarchy has been declared by his Majesty not liberal enough for the Prussian nation, and has, therefore, been pleased to alter several parts of it. Tile introduction of a national representation ) the liberty iof the press, and many other arrangements for the goad of the country are sanctioned. On the gth of May, Marshal Marmont came to Aix-la-Cha pelle to drink the waters. The Military Governor- General, Von Dobschutz, is stated to have announced to him that he could not allow him to reside at Aix la-Chapelle, or, in general, in the G rand Duchy of the Lower Rhine, without a sped d permission from Prince Blucher. The Governor is said to have oh jccted also to the residence of Marshal Victor at Aix-la-Chapelle, who has Leer there for some time 4o drink the waters. VIENNA, MA herr that the Saxon of Cession was in print the &iv hefore yesterday. The Austrian plan for the future orAarsizatia.n of the German empire is finished ; wl;ether it vrill be n . creed In is lint certain. The departure of the Sovereigns is fixed for the 23t1). Nlinisters will stay, it is said, 10 or 12 days longer. The Empress of Aus tria will accompany the Emperor' as far as Munich. The morn7ng has produced no fresh arrivals of Pa pers from France. Those received yesterday, the con tents of which we gave so copiously that it is unne cessary to return to them, brought the intelligence from Paris up to Saturday. The two Rouses of the French Parliament met ors that day—on Sunday the Emperor was to receive the Electoral Colleges and the Military Deputations—on Monday he was ex pected to open the Session of the Legislature-and on Tuesday he was to take his departure fur the army. Events of the utmost importance will attend his steps. The French nation, placed between war and disgrace, has relieved him from the restraint which his moderate offers of peace have hitherto im posed upon him ;—the twenty-eight millions of men who have been doomed to the most ignominious of fates, for daring to choose their own Sovereign, in rebellion to the supreme will of the Powers of the Congress. now urge the man of their choice to throw back the bold defiance, and roll the surges of war over those bounds, within which the troubled elements of indignation and discord might have slumbered and expired under the milder in fluence of peace. The convulsion is at hand—the war of liberty is again begun, and its enemies have cause to tremble—tremble may the frail fabric, co lossal as it may appear to Iw, which Imperial hands were raising for the entombment of the rights of na tion?, and the liberties of mankied. France will not bear the yoke which was attempted to be im posed upon hcr, and she has means to resist it.-1 What yoke' it a iit be asked—the return of a family to sovereign rule, the expulsion of whom anti whose system has cost France oceans of blood—the system of feudal rights, 'which makes thousands of human beings as much the :laves and property of one man as the beasts of the &Id—tithes and tyranny, the preservation.. of which has entailed such misery on Europe—which gave Russia to the wasting hand of self.destruction,and extended the scene of desolation from Asia to Paris. To resist the imposition of this system the whole strength of renovated France is again marshalled—six millions of men, at least, are deeply interested in resisting this system, by the obligations which the preservation of their estates and property imposes on them-600,000 soldiers are ready and eager to combat for their nation's honour— and a line of fortresses, fully garrisoned and repaired, oppose a barrier to invasion, not likely to be easily passed. In fact, we cannot believe that whatever may be the eventual result of the war, it will not be decided by the overwhelming of France in one cam. paign. Our Treasury Cotemporariec style the Champ de Alai and the establishment of the Imperial French Government a farce—it is a performance, however, that may last a little longer than the run they are in-. clined to give it ; and which, regarding it as they do, is likely to turn out a tragedy • • r soMo of the Powers of Europe. By referring to our Plymouth Letter it will be seen that another act of hostility has been committed by this country against the French. The Khie fri gate sailed from Ply mouth, on the 29th of May, on a cruise off the French coast, and witliin two days afterwards captured the Alexis French brig, from Rouen, bound to Eves'. It must therefore be pre sumed, from the above dlte, that the Rhin had M miralty orders ; and us the last prize sent in by the Desiree frigate to Portsmautn, on the 21st ult. has not been released, war may be considered as begun. The Alexis above-tnentioned is commanded by Captain M ir.Lor, and arrived at Plymouth on Mon day. Our Deal Letter inform us. that a French Gene , ral and two Aids-de-Camp have been landed at Mar , gate, by the Hart,7 sloop of war, from Ghent. The • object of their mission has not transpired. Yesterday morning Mr. Yot; RES, the King's Mes senger. arrived at the Voreign Office, with ilispirclies from Vienna. A king's Mecsenger was afterwards sent olf to the PRINCE RECENT at the Ascot Heath Races. Mr. Ct.otrn, the Messenger, was ordered to hold himself in readiness for a Foreign jouropy in the evening. A private letter from Paris confirms the account that MuaAT has actually artived in that City, but still it is doubted. Several fortresses in the hands of the Russians which were ngreed to be given up to the Turks ac cording to the last Treaty of Peace, have never yet been surrendered. since the return of I\IAP() LEOV to France, the Turkish Government hare reiterated their demand of them, and their object is likely to be obtained.
