MILAN, Oct. 19.—The speech delivered in the • Senate the Empire, by the Empress Queen and Regent, is well worthy of being considered by all Italians. Her Majesty, among others, repeated these memorable words: 66 1 know better than any one, what our people hill have to dread, if ever they suffer themselves to be conquered." ballasts'. It is to us, to us principally, that it be -4migs to reflect upon these words, which evidently cams from the Empress:: heart. She passed her first youth in the midst of the very individuals who have jest now engaged her father to make war on us. She said, that she I.new better than any one the senti ments with which they are animated, and the fate they would make us suffer, if they succeeded in cJnquering us! . _ _ 144itiansI if the sentiments with ,which our enemies are animated ought to excite the courage and resist ance of Frenchmen, how much more ought they to inflame our patriotism and our valour ? Frenchmen have never been the subjects of• our enemies ; the latter have nothing to reproach the'French with but that of being stronger and better commanded than themselves. But we, we who have changed sovereigns, and who are attached to our King by so many ties of gratitude and love ; we who have placed our glory end ambition is serving him, let us form, if it it be possible, an idea of the resentment and private ven geance of which we should quickly be the object and the victims. There is no doubt but that the efforts of our ene. mies will turn to their shame, and will fall before the genius and power of the Emperor. The days of Lutzen and Dresden ought to con vince them of the absurdity of their hopes ; and prove to them, that the Emperor is now more strong and sore great than ever. _ _ _ Suipose that the enemy should, for a moment, pe tietritte to us,—be would not, at first, fail to hold forth twos a paternal language, and promise us to • forget the past. But who among us would be the .dupe of his artful promises? We know him—we hare not forgotten the day of the 13th Messidor, which preceded ihe immortal flay of Marengo. . Can we believe that the -Emperor - would ever pardon the Fnuctionaties of all classes, the Generals, the Officers the soldiers, who have so often conquered him,? "iirould he par don the Lom bards their first enthusiasm, and the fidelity of which _ _ tht►y hare given so many proofs ? Would he pardon the Bolognese, the Ilreseians, the sentiments of ad eriratiou and devotion with which they have been Constantly animated towards the Emperor? 'Would be pardon the Venetians the profound grief which the • Treaty of Campo Formic, caused them ; and the joy they exhibited on hearing of the Treaty of Presburg? Would he pardon the Modenese the services of all kinds which they have rendered the Sovereign in the administrations and in the armies? Would he par. dos the Tyroleans the sentimeuti of fidelity which they have evinced since the late Treaty of Vienna ? Would he pardon the Professors of our Universities, of our Lyceums, the precepts and the examples of patriotism which they have given to our youth ? Ah ! ask it, ask it of her Majesty the Empress : she will deign to inform you that those strangely deceive themselves who think they can obtain " peace by weakness ) and the forgetting of their first duties." Italians, we all knoW our duties, and we cannot too frequently repeat, that our most pressing in • terest commands us to fulfil them. • We are happy in being able to contradict our Ittatement of Friday last, that the Duke of BEDFORD, owitg to . bis having a pulmonary attack, is about to • tb Lisboa ; his Grace never has had any attack of the kitid ; his former voyage to Lisbon was OCC ‘ a - 1401114by ' She ill bealth of his late Lady.

A Mail from Passage arrived this morning, bring ing accounts up to the 19th ult. The Arabella pocket, which brought the Mail, was obliged to put into Cork in' consequence of contrary winds, otherwise she would have made for Falmouth. It will be seen by the extracts we have taken that SOULT is fortifying himself opposite to the Allied Army. Pamplona still held out, but was expected shortly to fall. PASSAGE, ' Om. 18.—Nothing of consequence has occurred since the 7th, when the enemy was driven from their positions. He is now intronching him self on the ridge behind Lekune, St. Jean de Luc, &c. for the purpose of retarding our advance. Soult is said to be actively employed in the erecting of most formidable intrenchments, which he personally superintends. Pamplona still holds ont, but it is supposed that the utmost period of its resistance cannot extend beyond the latter end of this month.

Nothing in the way of Bulletin from the CROWN PRINCE, or otherwise, to confirm those hopes which the most sanguine part of the British press had raised throughout the United Kingdom. The pompous an nouncement of French news in a Ministerial Paper of yesterday, in which " the total discomfiture of BONAPARTE" was the text, turns out to be less than a prophecy. But it is yet to come :and really if the as sumed premises on which a Print, lees itilational Print than the eke alluded to, though on the same side of po litics, were admitted, then would wejoin heartily with the plausible reasoner in his flattering conclusion.
