konDon. MONDAY, JULY 24. REVOLUTION IN NAPLES. The revolutionary movement among the troops was observable on the day previous to the departure of the Messengers from Naples. Two regiments expressed their wish. of being governed constitution ally, and multitudes of soldiers rushel to their party; Prince Campo Chiaro was the promulgator of their sentiments to the King, who found himself obliged to conform to their views, and prepare a constitution within the space of eight days. The whole business seems to have been well arranged and matured— the utmost secrecy must have been observed—the insurrection spread with the rapidity of lightning, and every peasant that could procure a fitelock, or weapon of any sort, followed the example of the troops. The Court was dismayed at these proceedings, but they became too general and too formidable to be resisted. The important movement originated with the military, the only organ by which the Rulers could overawe or coerce the people. An ar bitrary Government cannot exist a moment without the support of the military, and Naples must soon enjoy all the political benefits of Spain. The pub lic mind is too much enlightened in every country for the people to suffer the degradation which they experienced in the dark ages of tyranny and super stition. The revolution in Spain cannot fiil to have a great influence on neighbouring nations, and we look to it with hope as the forerunner of speedy and momentous events. On Friday the new Lottery was contracted for, when Bish, being the highest biddcr, was declared the Contractor. The faowitig were the hiddiiii;s:— Bibh .t; 7 3 Hazard 6: Co. Carr01l &J. Sivuwriiht The Bank Notes Forgery Prevention Bill occa sioned some conversation in the House of Peers on Monday night. The attempt to prevent peti,ioners from being heard against the Bill mast appear very singular, Lord Liverpool seemed to imagine that Mr. Tilloch and the other petitioners iiiineeac h tying the comparative merits of different plans examined. This, however, is not the object of Mr. Tilloch's Petition : the preamble to the Bill states, that " the Governor and Company of' the Bank of England have, Lifter great consideration, labour, and expellee, firmed a new plan for printing Bank Notes, in which the ground-work of each Bank Note will be black or coloured, or black and coloured line• work," with certain words " upon a black, sable, or dark ground, such ground containing white lines inter secting each other," &c. Mr. illoch says that this allegation is not true—that, on the contrary, the plan was formed by him, after much consideration, labour and expellee (of' which he has never been rcimbuesed one flirdsino), and was by him laid before the Bank in 17971 and this fact he intended to prove at the Bar of the House. In the course of' Thursday, a general seizare was made throughout the Metropolis by the Excise Offi cers, of the arti.:le called " Hunt's breakfast pow ders." The affair is likely to become a matter of legal investigation. Rosemary comes under the same objection, as it is sold to make a beverage called " Rosemary tea," which is prescribed in ner vous complaints by the rhvsieians. Review at Hounslow.—Friday a Grand Review took place on Hounslow Heath. A great concourse of' people assembled there at an early hour, and a number of carriages; tilled by persons of distinction, were also on the ground. This great assetnikage was occasioned qy the announcement in the public papers that the King was to review the two Regi ments of Life Guards, and the Horse Guards (blue.) A corps of' Lancers were stationed at the Lodge, near the roadside at Hounslow, in their full uni forms, and a considerable number of Staff Officers, for the purpose of receiving his Majesty upon his arrival. An express however arrived to the I-lon. Captain Cathcart, announcing that his Majesty would be unable to attend, but that the Commander in Chief might be momentarily expected. The Orderly had only time to deliver his message when his Royal Highness the Duke of York appeared in sight, dressed in his full Field Marshal's unifbrm, accompanied by his Royal Highness thc Duke of Cambralge, also in full uniform, and the Duke of Wellington, mounted on a beautiful chesnut-co- Inured Arabian, and dressed in his regimentals, as Colonel of the Blues. These illustrions personages drove to Hounslow in their carriages, and mounted their chargers at the entrance to the Heath, where dragoons had them in readiness. When they came on the ground at eleven o'clock, they were immedi ately surrounded by a large body of' officers of rank, who conducted them to the eastern part of' the Heath, where the two regiments of Life Guards And the Blues were firmed in line. The Review im mediately commenced, and the troops went through their evolutions in fine military order until near two o'clock, when some heavy showers of rain com ing on, they were ordered off the ground, and the Royal Dukes drove back to town in their carriages. The Duke of Wellington, attended by an officer, drove home in a curricle and pair. His Majesty was prevented from being present at the Review in consequence of an attack of the gout. Review of the Coldstream Guards.—Saturday morning, at nine o'clock, the 2d battalion of the Coldstream Guards•was reviewed in Hyde Park, by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, their Colonel. His Royal Highness took his station in front, and the regiment passed him in review in an excellent state of discipline. The corps formed near the magazine; and their band was stationed in the centre, and played martial airs during the review. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge looked in excellent health, and was accompanied by Gene rals Hill and Keate, and several other officers of' dis tinction. The ceremony of firing n salute was dis pensed with by desire of' his Royal Highness The House of Lords is expected to adjourn on Monday until Thursday, the 17th of August, the day fixed fire the second reading of the Bill of Divorce and of Pains and Penalties against the Queen. An official return to an order of the House of' Commons states the total amount of Bank notes and Bank post bills in circulation, in the week ending the 4th July, 1820, `2 . _2,397,2101. ;cnl in the week ending the 11th at '26,'210,3001. This great increase in the latter week is chictly to be ascribed to the payment of the dividends. The Select Committee on the practicability of the unption of smoke issuing front furnaces, steam-engines, and different works, have made their report. It appears from a mass of evidences that it is perfectly practicable, and that the consumption of smoke would not only be a very great saving of fuel, but would also be loss prejudicial to public health and public conduit.

The Surveyor of the Board of Works, has exa- • mined the interior of the House of Lords, pre/3am. tory to the necessary arrangements to be made against the 17th of August. As a full attendance of their Lordships is expected, it will be scarcely possible to accommodate them all, without that part of the House below the Bar, where stran.2,cra are admitted; is taken into the body of the House.— This alteration, however, would not be so well, as on a subject of so much interest to the country, it would be rather ungracious to exclude the Public. A place must be preserved for the accommodation of the Queen's Counsel and for her Majesty, who is determined, it is said, to be present during the whole of the proceedings. It is evident that Minis ters are resolved to persevere in this unfortunate business, and that all the rumours in circu lation to the contrary are unfounded. Her Ma jesty's accusers, however, must know pretty well. the feelings of the public on the business from the. addresses presenting from all quarters of the cowl try Queen, from those respectable corporate and °tinr bodies whom even the Ministerial Journals havo not the hardihood or presumption to attack.— A Requisition is signing to the Sheriff's of Middlesex. to call a Meeting to address the Queen, and other County Meeting's are expected to tidlow the exam.. plc, while nut a single counter-address against Ihr Majesty can be procured. The following extract is dated Hamburgh, the 16th inst.—" The Board of trade of this city has received the fbllowing account from Revel, dated. 28th June This morning the lightning struck the steeple of the Lutheran cathedral in this city, and in a few hours that ancient Gothic edifice was reduced to ashes. Vessels bound to Revel and St. Petersburgh have by this event lost an excellent land-mark; the lofty steeple was visible firr out •at sea. It is therefore very desirable teat this circum stance should be made as public as possible.' " Mr. Michael Angelo Taylor, Recorder, and Messrs Lester and Dent, Members for Poole, presented the. • Address to her Majesty on Friday. They kissed hands. Her Majesty received them graciou4, and was in high spirits. A letter from Hamburgh of the 10th inst. states., . that General Gourgaud has been refused permission by the French and Prussian Ambassadors to proceed either to Paris or to Brussels, and is therefore about to fix his residence at Frankfort on the Maine. A. new system of police (the old one being declared to be in a very defective state), is preparing for the city of Hamburgh, under the auspices of M. Barteis, at present burgomaster, and formerly chief of police. By recent letters from Gibraltar we learn that on any future occasion of American vessels of war an choring there, a mutual intercourse of ciJility will take place : satisfactory explananationg having been exchanged between the Higher Powers. FIV.:I'IIOLDERS or Duaux.—ln the, course of two days, there have been registered near Seven Hundred Freeholders. And, we expect, in the course of the next fit might, that the number will be trebled. Tins is a teartid consideration fin any future candidate that may start up en the Orange' Interest. Fur though these Freeholders cannot come in during the next eleciion, they will form a dormant power, ready to sp: ing into activity at any moment after six months.
