'They have been received as they merit, as welt as their Proclamations; hitherto they have been allowed till now to penetrate, but not a single commune has raised its voice in fa vour of the King of Naples; and the provinces occu pied or threatened by the enemy, send daily to the seats of Government addresses, expressing their de sire and request to be promptly and surely delivered from them. On the Bth Lord Bentinck, Commander of the English troops in Genoa and Sicily, passed through Milan on his way to the head-quarters of Baron Fri. moot, to concert the military operations with him.— England, as it is known, concluded in January, 1814, an armistice with Murat, both in its own name and that of Ferdinand, in consequence of the attack made by the latter on the Allies of England—the armistice is null, and thus Murat is at war with Eng land. •' Mr. LorEu. having been congratulated by some unknown Friends on his supposed liberatim from Prison, in consequence of the late discussion in the house of Commons, begs leave to acqUaint them that he has not yet been so fortunate as to obtain his liberty, but he hopes and trials Me day is Not for distant when it will be in his power to annowt;:e that desirable and long looked for event.

Sir SIDNEY SMITH has been several days in this clop" _ The dlecesdon Is the Hedpe of Commons last night, ea Me'. WatteauAn's motion relative to Peace or' War, was most interesting. Truf &Santry is piedgild to war, for Lord GAITLIAZAGIi and the partitioning Congress have a very bed opinion of Nairomanx 80. N APA Lae, and the entire of the people of France ap pear to have a very good one of him, notwithutatid. ing all the proscriptions of the Allies. Lord Cisti.c- REACII thinks an early and decisive effort shoild be made to put doe n the " Usurper," and sopped " the order of things so happily established by the Congress ;" and, therefore, though the attempt has rather the appearance of being a little late, and does not quite accord,in the alacrity of its exertion, with the promptitude of the Paper firing from Vienna— -we must go early and decisively to work to put down NArot.tom and his adherents. The object of Mr. Wntrattrao's motion was to induce Parliament to address the Crown to prevent the renewal of war for the establishment of any particular Government In France. LOll3 CA STLEREAGII opposed this s anisail that the ear was to be only against BOMARAILT4 admitting, rather unfortunately, however, that 11 the Preach people should appose the destruction of his Govern ment, that Government which they have so unani mously chomp, they, the whole French motion, l uonld be. timed to the operation of . . e.l.` •. f :f ~~ •A' it In other words, Ms Lordship, in the plenitude of hi: prerogative, and the " High Aellis" in the equally proud exercise of theirs, say to the people of France, " we do not mean to interfere with your choice of a , Government, but, by the Lord Ilarry ! you shall not have that of BONAPARTE!" The French under stand this, though not quite so plainly spoken, and thus people know what to do and what to expect. Truth, though she lies at the bottom of a well, pops her head out at last. Two hundred and seventy three Members of the House of Commons thought it l advisable to plunge into a war of inconceivable do ration for such an object, and seventy-two thought we should act very unwisely and imprudently if we did. Some of the observations of Lord CASTLEREAUU, used by way of arguments in favour of war with the French Emperor, have an odd appearance in our eyes, when compared with the conduct of those who are marshalling all their powers to,put him down. " let him," says his Lordship, or the report, " re main at peace, and he will speedily become as odious as the BOURBONS, and add the army to the other classes in the country, who think his return a rnic 'fortune to France mid the world." Why then nut Ict him remain at peace, and become as odious as the Boussoivs? His Lordship thus acknowledges t •4hat the BOURBONS are odious in tke eyes of all of Frenchmen; and he and his friends the Allies, we doubt net, will find that the attempt..to' cram any other Government down the throats of the , French people, or take from them that which they have chosen, will be considered in fully as odious a light is the Boustotts. But "an insult has been offered to all Europe, (read legitimates) by the re turn of BONAPARTE (a plebeian) to power; and al though Governments have at various times broken faith, and violated Treaties,, they were able to gloss , over the iniquity of the transaction ; but never had any one appeared who so glorified himself for breach of faith as BONAPARTE." Here is a pretty admission of broken faith, and violated engagements, and glossing of iniquity, at various times, on the part of IVovernments and Princes, legitimates. we suppose ; l and yet a man is proscribed and doomed to death with t all his adherents, because he has exceeded a lit tle in this way, and glorifies himself in so doing—that is, he scorns to gloss over his iniquity in the usual way, or has no Minister so able or willing to prosecute the glossing system as certain double-tongued Ministers whom we could mention. Lord CASTLEREAGH told a story in the course of the debate, which he thought would satisfy every body that BoNapAnee was the I most double-tongued fellow that eve r lived. lite The Neapolitan Army cantata of about 35,000 story, however, proved nothing against the French troops of the line, some of whom are ill-armed Alt ) Emperor, except that he had no hand in the meditat the fortresses of Upper Italy have garrisons, an t r i lz a rd attempt said to have been made to Wits, ef..e. molt. wi4b..tho•glesteet-eoesposamt else elausalbe get - " , r Witaditeth do: a loop- - holesto oat or, of a pre• sures of the Neapolitan army. By the last accounts jence to gloss over the violation of their engage. . from Naples, the greatest care was taken to avoid merits. It related to an official letter which his Lord. letting the public see any probability of a rupture l i. ship said had lately been put into his hands (perhaps with Englnud and Naples.

The Emperor hu! not left the capital at that date, but it was perfectly and generally understood that lie ►could short': set out for the Northern frontier. MAssmt had arrived at Paris. Preparations for war are making with the utmost energy in all parts of France. The whole nation appears to be united in favour of the present Govern. trent, and if war is determined on it will probably be the most sanguinary one ever recorded in history. Letters from Belgium are inserted, by which it would appear, that NAPOLEON was extremely popu. lar in that country. A misunderstanding between the t'rince of ORANGE and the Duke de Brnat is spoken of. The Pont and King CHARLES IV. of , Spain were still at Genoa. Letters from Spain announce the state of affairs in that country to be in the most critieal state. Placards were stuck up all over Madrid, with the following inscription, " Napoleon for ever—Down with the Bourbons—Now is sour time Liberates." Every thing announces a dreadful convulsion. The Gazette de France contains a long article, in hich the necessity of peace to all Europe is strongly insisted on. It argues very ably against war, and goes over the ground of the legitimacy of Napoleon, as the Emperor of France ; that if the rights of the Bourbons are insisted upon, the Family of Bruns. svicbateuserpors of the British Throne, which onbt 4. then op to the Stuart Family ; that Gustattit to he restored to the Theo's. of Sweden; Ala . e Emperor of Russia ought to give way to the loxcridarits of the ancient Czars ; and that even in France the claims of the Bourbons must submit to' 1!)0s7 of the race of the Carlo►iugians, the original Nl.m +rills.
