DECEMBER 25. 1820. Private letters from Dublin, received in town on Saturday. slate, that a very desperate action took place in the beginning of last week on the western coast or Ireland, between his M Ai ItsTY'S smuggling preventive brig stationed off Sligo, and a smug gling vessel. The latter opposed a desperate re sistance, and was assisted by the people on- the coast, but the brig succeeded in effecting her cap ture, and made good the seizure. In this resicontre, we regret to say, the brig had several of her crew wounded. There were several killed and wounded on the part or her opponents. This system, which has been adopted within these few years for the pre vention of smuggling, has proved very efficient. The vessels are under the orders of the Treasury : they carry upwards of ten guns, are well manned and appointed, and commanded by a Lieutenant of the 1 Royal Navy. The Excise c utters em p lo y ed in this service were seldom stile to encounter the smug glers with tutees, the latter being generally of larger site and superior strent!th in men and gun!. Thee smuggling preventive ve-selti are t•taiinned at given distances round the coast of Ireland and Scotland. Sir GEORGE Seta:, Receiver-General of the Revenue in Ireland, has been recently superan nuated, and is succeeded in that office by Colonel CLEMENTo, one of the late Lords of the frith Trea.ury. We understand that a great reduction of officers will shortly be effected in the deinirt tnent of the liish CuAnnie. A like retrenchment is expi•cted in the Customs ir,r Great Britoil), ill ' , trio:lnce of the recommendation of the Cot ttttt litre of the House of Commons. We have received Paris Paperer of Wednesday and Thursday last. Tire Papers of Wednesday contuni the King of FRANCE'S Speech at the open ing of the Session of the Legislative Chambers on the preceding day. Ilia Man-nit presents a very flattering picture of the state of his kingdom. and to prove the sincerity of the representation, his Ma- Jes Tar informs the Chambers that " the arneliora boo of the revenues, the economy which I.e has prescribed, and the solidity of public credit, enable him to propose to them a reduction of the direct lures during the present 5,,,i0n." This intimation [mist exerrise a very beneficial influence over the state of the public mind in France and con tribute proportionably to render the littea's Government popular, and to give stability to his throne. It offers the assurance of immediate relief to the people from a certain hoiden, but it do. a mote—it evinces an envious solicitude on the part of the Administration to promote the public welfare. by displaying a sympathy in the comforts of in. diaiduals. We hope sincerely that the wise exam ple of the King of Fa state, in recommending economy its the public expenditure, will be imitated by the Government of our own country. The KING alludes very generally to the foreign rclations of France, hut he represents their charac ter to be eminently pacific. His MAJFSTY sedu. lously avoids all allusion to the affairs of Naples; but the Legislative Chambers being now assembled, the sentiments of his Government cannot long be concealed upon this must important subject. A private letter from Naples inform• us, that on the Ist of December the 'Minister for Foreign Affairs proceeded to the Parliament, for the pur pose of submitting to it sonie topic of great meg. nitride, and that the Parliament immediately form ed itself two Secret Committee. The nature of the communication is tort stated, but it is conjec tured to refer to the propositions transmitted by the Allied Sovereigns at Troppau to the Neapo litan Guiteriontrit. The discussion is said to have been very animated, mid it is stated that when the Illieeistrr apprised the Parliament that• ' by accepting the terms proposed win might still be reoidtl, several of the Nlemhers repelled with violence every propositimi which tended to 'Mc' a change in the fundamental baseaof the Constitution. It is added that the Parliament finally resolved that it could nut uetelert ake the consideration of anv sub ject which should interfere with the discussion of thoiie moditit ations in the Coortitutiati which hurt beers octet-red to the Parliament by she Govern anent. If such a reso!uttori were really passed by the Pailiamerit„ it would be tantamount to the re jection of the propositious of the Allied Sovereigns, and must lead t 4/ war. There are accounts which positively affirm dist the Austrian army lias passed the N. hut articles of in telliimitee of the latest date hum Vienna. MIND. and Venice. are silent respecting ary menacing movements et Ikea /tourism. In the meantime it is affirmed that an alliance, °fitwive sod defensive, has been concluded between Spain and Naples. The Neapolitans are said, by some accounts, to be is spired with the noblest feelings of national in dependence, ■nd • determination to fight to the last for the liberty of their country ; by otheri, on the contrary, we are assured that the troops are daily deserting their standards in great numbers. The English squadron still continues in the Bay of Naples; a small French squadron is assembl►d there oho. War is certainly expected; and even the time. is Effected to be listed at which the PRINCEVICAR-GSNERAL will aet out to join the army. - - • The French Legislative Chambers assembled on the 20th—the Peers under the presidency of the Chancellor, and the Deputies under t h at of M.
