We shalt allow the extracts we make to speak (br them 'helves, haxiwg wine remarks to offer on other sub- j!Cts GENOA, MAT Anglo-Sicilian expedition, ' which was to sail from Messina about this time, is composed of 6000 English troops, 15,000 Sicilians, and a legion of brave Calabrians, whose attachment to their lawful Sovereign has never abated a single moment. The King is at the head of this army, which burns with impatience to combat Murat and his satellites. A squadron, consisting of some ships of the line, frigates, and light vessels, will protect the operations of the landing. Frequent communi cations have already taken place with the inhabitants of the Neapolitan coast, who are all ready to declare for the good cause as soon as the army arrives. It is considered as certain that the restoration of Fer dinand to. the Throne of Naples will take place be fore the Ist of June. Views*, MAY 16.—A line of telegraphs is to be estahli•hed from Vienna to Mentz. We expect every moment to receive the news of the entrance of our troops into Naples, and of the surrender of Ancona. The King of Prussia will go to the army by way of Bcriin, the two Emperors go by Prague. Dussecoonr, MAT B.—Above 200,000 Prussians are irrIVNI onths bank of the Rhine, and we wait wily for the Russian army of 250,000 men, which is raptirly'allvencing, in order to begin operations. — The events that may be expected wilt surpass every tiling that has yet been seen. . Gutsy, MAT 25.,-The son of the Prince de rut erriviA here yesterday from Paris, to attend on hit Majesty, Louis XVIII. This Nobleman re pnrtst that Bonaparte was preparing to repair to the **my towards the end of this month, that it was the g-neral opinion that hostilities would begin thee, and that it was expected that before the Allies en tiled France, they would publish an energetic Prd. d 3 mation. Ilis R.oyal flightless Prince Frederick of Orange . tins just removed his headquarters from Sotteghem to Ontlevarde. The first English troops from America, consisting 6r two regiments of foot, landed at Ostend on the t3d. Uatissass, v ie.—The Allied forces on the Upper Rhine are already 'Try respectable; the Bava rians have moo° men, Wirtemberg 20,000, Baden 12,000, Hesse 8000. -The first column of the Prussian army began to piss through Nuremberg on the 19th. One bundled elossand men will pass through that place. PRAGUE, MAY 15.—0 n the lath arrived here two regiments of Russian light infantry, and to-day two regiments of the line. Cas‘sa., M.4v 20.—The superb regiment of Prus sian Cuirassiers of the Grand Duke Constantine, ar rived here to-day ; it is going to Warburg. C4aLsitunr, MAY 20.—His ilighness Field-Mar shal Prince Stitwartzenbeig passed, on the 18th, The forwardness of the Chottans, and the back • wariness of the Russians and the other civilising Powers of the 'North, front whom France and Europe are to expect deliverance and peace, form the chief theme at present. The Chouans, or Owlet-warriors, as the French call them, of the woods of IA Vendee, have made an unexpected advance into the light, and it is said, have even carried terror to the Throne of NAPOLEON.. Bet it was not to be expected that the weak •ptics of these natives of the shade could long ' sustain the blaze that would be poured upon them from the vengeful armoury of the power they were thus so rashly defying. The greater part of the arms and ammunition sent from this country to the Chouan leaders, have already fallen Into the hands of the French Government, whose troops they will serve to arm and support ; and the partizans of the Boriatiow family in France are likely to stiffer very severely for their attempts to stir up a civil war in the country. We have private letters (but no public Wise's) to day from Paris, which state, that &a landing of the Chouan Leaders in IA Vender, and the St. tempts that have recently been made, and tire still making, by the agents of the. Bouneom family and the Governments i..imiestl to France, to excite insurrection among the French people have induced, and enabled the Government of that coun try to do it with every appearance °f jolitic. and' po licy, to issue the most rigorous orders for the arrest of the Bot:alsow partizans throughout France, and , for the panishment of the insurrectionary leaders...-. We have seen th at the most active exertions have ' been made to stifle insurrectional commotion, and we can well conceive the mischief *hid: the Bona.' SONS have than brought on their confederates. We bare also seen a Gentleman who left Paris on Friday last, who informs us, that, although there are cer tainly parties in France, two in particular, for and against NAPOLEON personally, 'it is perfectly hope less for any party to attempt the overthrow of his Government. lie has succeeded in getting an im mense majority in his favour, in consequence of the 1 general belief that the Allies want to enslave Francs. Their Proclamations, and those of the Bon:Isom particularly, our informant says, have I done their cause us,,re berm than any thing else. The Republicans have sworn never to allow the BoultaoN dynasty to exist on the French throne—they set in their return the demolition of all that has been effect ed by the Revolution, and the stamp of shame and de lfeat placed-upon all their efforts to get rid of the hated family and their institutions; and the oldest of them, rather than submit to this odious rule, have rallied round the throne of NAPOLEON, who had ceased to I be a favourite with many of the republicans aft e r h is assumption of the regal authority. At Dieppe, says this Gentleman, there was a great sensation against i the Emperor; but at Paris every one and every thing was in his favour. The indignation against TALLEY.. B ANK was beyond all bounds—caritatures and pta. 1 cards, holding up this, Minister to scorn and con ' tempt, abounded everywhere. Tazzassams is be ! tiered to be the author of Louts's Proclamations, and it may not be a very erroneous coejeeture to suppose that the ha9d of this master Jesuit l has had a considerable share in the composition of some of the other Proclamations, which we have ; lately seen given to the world. We do not say this from the ability we see displayed in the Royal issues to which we are alluding. All the talent of Courts may be expected to be mustered upon such occasions, but we have other Piens to judge by. It is rather sin. collar, however, that the Boerteos Court and its ' Allies cannot make their stories tally, better. The Botarao sr Proclamations say thecoalestea Seventieri I want nothing but the restoration of Lours XVIII. I to his Throne, and that that will be deemed securlly sufficient for the peace and happiness of the whoio human race—the Allies, on the contrary. a y. such thing, but tell the French people that thq will drub and dragoon them into obedience to their sovereign authority ; and it is shrewdly suspected *at better securities, for submission in time to 4man ----,1 will be exacted by them, if successful, freteralee French nation, than the feeble and procerioes grts• ratites of Louts'SVlll. or any of his family. This leads us to notice the Proclamation which FsaesNAsre of Spain has thought proper to issue against BOsiliteaTs, explanatory of 66 the justice, the importance, and the necessity" of the Rill of Srain's going to war " to oppose the aggresaieem of the Usurper Bottlyann." This Deataradols smells strongly of Ghent; and with all dee deign:ace to the abilities of Page Ctlret.LoS and the renowned FERDINAND, we suspect they have had a loaf sent them from the school of Lours.

The same day a regiment of foot, of the Grand Duehy of-Itesie, left Heidelberg to proceed to its destination. The 3d battalion of Austrian Chayseurt, of Bavaria, passed through Manheim yes terday., on their way from Treves to the Upper Rhine. SWITZMLAND, M.% v 17.—The soldiers of the 3d regiment, which is at Bergdosf, and of the 4th, which is at Berne, become daily more numerous. The Regency of B.rne, to celebrate the happy re tarn of the Ot6cers of the 4th regiment, gave them a grand dinner the day before yesterday. A table of 120 covers was served under a tent. Two Swiss, In the ancient national dress, stood sentry at the en trance. The toasts were given to the sound of can non. In the evening there was a brilliant illumina tion, with insciiptions in honour of the victories of! the Beresina and of Paris. A similar fete was given last week to the Officers of the 3d regiment of Burg dorf. The French Lieut.-Ceti. Count Damas is, at this moment, at Berne.

This we are assured of by our Correspondent, though we have seen no such pa pens ; and he says, that it is no slight proof of the eon-, fidence which BONAPARTE feels in his personal secu rity, that animadversions, which no other Fotentate in Europe would permit, are suffered freely to cir f culate. It is only against the commission of overt acts against the government that measures have been taken ; and it was sorely time, when,. according In . report, 30,000 stand of arms, together with a large sum of money, were delivered to the Chouau Chiefs, with which to excite insurrection in the coentry.
