" goad-quarters, Padua, Feb. 4." • [Morning Post.] F9ch is tlw extreme 2ea.l of the Whigs in the ca'.7.3e of universal liberty, that it has rendered • them lukewarm with regard to some of the dearest • and most valuable interests of their own country. This comprehensive, or rather discursive' benevo le,ncd, is often at. variance .with the affections avid duties of a patriot ; and a heart which- roams fiver the wide circle of the human race can- Dot v2ry warmlj for the spot which ought to - be tha object Of its first attachments. The cou r s e n of o:icy. which the great lurninarieS the p r no.sition recommend with respect to the affairs of Naples, shews that. the peculiar interests of • ,-, 7 ;,a,d receive from them only a partial consi deration, and occupy buta small : space in the vast ra.age of their benevolence. - The inte r f er e nce - - .4l7ich they so strenuously urge might interrupt tie blessings of petice; and disturb the rela tiOrs•of commerce, on the part of this country . ; at least it would" inevitably occasion an 'aug - mentation of the public expenditure ; for a re. - - mor - .ltrance would be a feeble check without mi litary demonstrations, and only• expose this Go, 7errment to ridicule. The 'Whigs have: invaria bly_ condemned the, scale of . eipetise adopted by Mini7Aers, as much too large, and have asuni iorrniy (10crihed it as the primary and chief • ccurce of. the evils, which, according. to them, press with an almost intolerable weight upon the country. " Ye.t;the plain object of all their tie- Clarnation do the subject Of• it apes, is to add to this suffocating 'weight ; and to secure to the Lazzaroci of Nr,ples the rights and privi leges of freemen, which, from previous habits of thinking and reeling, , they are so ill prepared to enjoy, they would increase the discontent, by zddlng to the burdens of this 'Country. We prize as highly, and love as warmly, the cause of rational liberty as the Whigs, and would feel as Much pleasure at seeing its benefits communicated to °tint' nations; yet we would not wish -to see our Government take Up the profession of a knight-errant, and become the declared redresser of political wrongs. It. is a commission at best of a doubtfiil characier, and we might expend our last blood and treasure without really bene fiting the party for whom we should make this sacrifice. [alo - rnitzg Chronicle.] • It is witlfthe greatest pleasure that we hail, in the speeches on Sir J. Mackintosh's motion re specting Naples, the return of some of the lead ing Members of the House of Commons to the ancient principles of true Biitisit Foreign Po licy. The speeches of Mr. Wilberforce, Mr. S. Wortley and Mr: Ward, will be read with the 'deepest interest ; and the :tore to as an opportunity still fortunately exists of giving practical effect -to the wishes atci*ed by those Gentlemen, and of still sayingone half of the Neapolitan kingdom from the gripe of Austria. EVen if there should be no hope of preventing that ambitious Power from taking . possession of Naples, we know that in the neighbourhOod,of Naples there is - a British naval force already assembled amply sufficient to pre vent her seizing on - Sicily. Now, then, for the sincerity of Ministerial condolence over the fate of Sicily ! Ministers (particularly Lord Liverpool, 'on Earl Grey's 'motion) have poured forth the most pathetic strains in commiseration Of Sicily for the loss of her ConstitUtion. Will they, now stir a finger to save her ? They are in full time to dispatch a messengerto Sir W. A'Court, with or ders to remonstrate against any attempt on the part of Austria.to send troops to that island. They are in time to order the comtnander of our squadron . to frustrate, if necessary, any military enterprise to take possession of it. Let them do this, which it is in their power to do—which if they have but the half of an English heart amongst them they would do—let them do this, and then we shall admit that they -have done something to retrieve the national character, and to remedy the mis chiefs of their hitherto imbecile truckling to the Holy Alliance. If they 'do nothing, they must confess themselVes, in the face of Europe, to" be an inefficient set of drivelling placemen, utterly unfit to direct the affairs of the meanest parish in England. [British Press.] Lord Castlereagh did not meet Sir James Mac kintosh's motion respecting the affairs of Naples fairly, when he represented it to the House of Commons as a' motion involving a censure upon his Majesty's Government, instead of treating it, as what it really was, a motion for further information. The Noble Lord and his col leagues have already practised this device with admirable success in the several ques tions submitted to the House of Commons connected with the prosecution instituted against the Queen, and 'they seem resolved 'to pur sue it. It is an instance of skill in Parliamentary tactics with which, fre•.n long experience, Lord Castlereagh is intimately acquainted ; but' the expedient, however serviceable it may prove to the Ministers, cannot fail of doing an injury to the Country. It will' become impossible to col lect_ the sense of either House of Parliament upon any topic submitted to their consideration, for the discussion, no matter upon what point instituted, will be governed by a secret reference to the question of Ministerial stability, and the decision of the House • will tell—not the senti ments of the majority upon the matter appa-. rently in debate—but their judgment respecting the propriety of changing the Members of the Cabinet. [Arew Times.] We perfectly agree with the independent and highly honourable Members who raised their voices in solemn protest against the principle of allowing a triumvirate of Monarchs to prescribe forms of Government to all the rest of Europe; which would indeed be merely establishing a Triform Napoleon, in the place of the Despot who has , been overthrown. But that principle being distinctly disavowed on all hands, the practical question still remained, whetbeeNinisters were bound to remonstrate against the advance of the Austrian troops Upon Naples. On the part of Ministers, the argument was simple. It does not become a nation like Bri tain, said they. to remonstrate, unless she be resolv ed to support her remonstrance in case of need by ar-us. Nov, we are not prepared. to say, that the advance of the Austrian troops upon Naples would justify us in going to war with Austria. We offer no opinion on the conduct of that power; re serving to ourselves the right of judging it hereafter on fuller information ; but in the mean while we think neutrality the wisest course to be pursued by Great Britain. On the - .other hand, taking the arguments of the Whigs on Wednesday, tagether wWI those which they • had previousiy urged, to wbat did they amount? Briefly to this, that the - C.; state Atntry mao extreme misery and distresl--that the Finances are ruined.— . Now, is this the time, therefore, to break with our Allies—to rush into a Continental War—to attack a Coalition which has " two or three• hundred 'thousand bayonets" ready to support its preten sions.—And why are we to encounter all these difficulties. Why, truly, to sanction the Neapo litan Rebellion ! [Morning lierald.] The debate of Wednesday in the House of Commons, has by this time produced a deep im pression throughout the country respecting the question of Naples.- The minority was so large, In proportion, an comprised individuals of such unequivocal impartiality, or rather, ' who must ,havelieen.powerfully influenced by the merits of the case, to conquer their bias towards the Ad ministration„that it may be considered a decisive expression of the opinion of. the nation. It is a singular incident in the, history of Parliament, that not.one Member defended the attack upon Naples. We suspect that Ministers themselves have a much stronger .opinion against the Allies than they think proper, or indeed, would be pro per for them to express; and improbable as the thing may appear, and as we .think it,. we heard yesterday from persons not deficient is judgment, or the means of information, that serious obstacles to "the march to Naples," had recen al been rais ea, and by the British Government ; but we have no such hope. Austria has a hankering to regain her sway in Naples—for the kingdom of Naples was little more than a province of Aus tria, governed by the Austrian General Nugent, from the restoration to the recent revolution.

SOLEM GUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT LONDON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1821. Paris Papers of. Monday last reached us at a late hour yesterday afternoon, from which we have given ample Extracts in another Column.— We doubted the truth of the report, announcing the passage of the Po by the Austrian Army, which appeared- in a Frankfort Journal ; and the last arrivals from .the Continent, so far from, con-: firming this ,report, contain an article from Frank fort of the 12th inst. contradicting in positive terms, on the authority of Letters received at Hamburg fro:n the Coasts of the Adriatic, all the accounts which have been published relative to that supposed event. Letters from La)'bach 'of the 2d inst. intimated that no hostile movements would take place 'until the answer to the Ulti matum of the Allied Sovereigns, sent to Naples by the . Duke de GALLO, shall have been re ceived. The Duke de GALLO passed through Florence on the Gill, and could not be expected to reach . Naples, 44.3-1 the 9th or 10th. It is, therefore, not probable that the answer to the Ultimatum could arrive at Laybach befOre the 20th, and perhaps as late as The 25th of tbis month.—The Capital and Provinces of Spain ap pear to be in a very disturbed state. Fresh conspiracies have been discovered, and several persons eoncerned in them and iu the old plots have been arrested. It is reported that an In surrection broke out at Madrid on the 10th inst., and that one of the Ministers had lost his life. Averse as we are to the renewal of discussions which must have disgusted not only this Country, but the moral community of the civilized world, we conceive that, for the honour of all Parties concerned, Ministers should not have 'opposed. an investigation of the Milan CommiSsion. The character of Ministers themselves, as well as of the immediate Aents in that Commission, is in volved,, and the transactions in question will otherwise descend to Posterity with a mark of doubt and suspicion.. Indeed, the honour of the British Government itself, distinct front all consideration of its temporary Ad ministrators, may be said to be concerned in the .question. Mr.. CooKE, the Chief Agent in that Commission, has been attacked within and without Parliament, with the most bitter asperity, and Colonel BROWNE has also been the Subjdttvlsevere censiffe. These CI - en •tlemen,'of course, must be anxious to vindicate their conduct, but cannot come fot'ward them selves without the sanction.of Government. The Loan CHANCELLOR gave the highest praise to Mr. Cooke, after an experience of thirty years, during which is Lordship had known that Gen tleman. We could say more upon this subit,ct, on the authority of. persons who have been often on the spot, and are fully acquainted with all the transactions at Milan, but we do not wish to renew a general discussion of a subject that has been so abhorrent to all honourabie minds ; but we conceive that the Milan Commission itself seems to require and demand inquiry• and exa mination. , By an arrival this morning from Chialston, we have received advices to the 14th ult. The ship Essex, lytgE, arrived there from-Port-au-Prince, on the 10th ult., in I\B days. Three days pre vious to her sailing, President I.3oYult• arrived Were from Cape - Henry, with 16,000 men, be sides a company of the- Life Guards of 'the late CIIRISTOPH E.

PAnis, FEE. 18.—The King received this day, after Mass, the Ministers, Prince Talleyrand, the Ambassadors of Spain and Naples, several Marshals, General Officers, Peers, and Deputies. The Portuguese Ambassador, and Papal Nuncio, Monseigneur Machi, bad the honour of being presented to his Majesty. The same presenta tions afterwards took place at the Court of Ma dame and the Duke of Angouleme. In the after noon his Majesty transacted business with the Duke de Richelieu. Count Torreno, Member of the Spanish Cortes, who has been residing at Paris several months, has just taken his, departure for Madrid. FEs. 7.—lt is 'stated that the King of Naples means to remain at Laybach some time, and there wait the result of impending events. The two Emperors will set out for Trieste on the 12th, and return again to Lay bach in a few days. During their absence the Archdukes, sons of the Emperor of Austria, will remain with their grandfather, the King of Naples. • FRANKFORT, FEB. 12.—1 t is currently re ported here, that the Spanish Ambassador at the Court of Austria lately quitted Vienna for Lay bach, charged with a mission to the Congress ,of the utmost importance. A letter from . Milan . says, that the Austrian troops tinder the command of Lieutenant-General Count Walmoden will be 'stationed on'the fron tiers of Piedmont, and be denominated the Corp. of Observation. Intelligence has been received at -Hamburg from the coasts of the Adriatic, contradicting all the reports respecting the passage of the Po by the Austrian army. This army is formed into four divisions ; the right wing is com manded by Baron de Mohr; the left by Baron Stutterheim, the Corps of Observation, as before mentioned, by Count Walmothin, and the re serve by Prince Philip of llesS'e Ilombourg. BERLIN, FEB. 10.—Prince Partanna, eapo litan Ambassador at our Court, 'set out the day before yesterday for Laybach. His Majesty will leave this capital for Lay bach towards the end of this month, to ratify the acts and declarations agreed to at the Congress by Prince de Hardenberg and Count de Bern-, stoir.—(tifoniteur.) • General de Nat2mer has just set out post for Laybach. It is thought he is the bearer of dis patches to Prince de Hardanberg ; and this cir cumstance confirms the general opinion that his Majesty will not go - to the' Congress.—(.lournal de Paris.) ' PALcamo, JAN. 20.—The situation of Sicily is any thing but tranquil. Every night conflicts take place between the inhabitants and the mili tary, and the fatter are often seen contending against each other. JAN. spite of the exertions of Gen. Nunzianti to xestore public tranquillity and• pre serve order, we are on the eve of an insurrection. MADRID, FEB. 8 - :—:-The illiicellanea states, thtit in the night of the sth one of its Editors narrowly escaped assassination in the street of Majaderitos> In that of Cosmo citizen, whose name is not mentioned, received two - stabs - from a poniard, and was killed On the spot, imMediately after he had uttered the cry of Live the Constitution.. • The famous Abuelo has-been at lengill'arrest ed.. He was taken on the-31st ult. at lleleehosa, in- - the Province . - of. Toledo, with four others. One only of his band has yet escaped the pursuit of the National Militia. A new conspiracy has just been discovered at Madrid, which might have involved the capital in the horrors'of a civil war. A hundred armed men sc'ere to assemble at the Puertct de ilierio, about a quarter of a league from Madrid, and thence march to the capital and fire on the inha bitants. The Government had early intimation of the plot, and a company'of troops, raised by the famous banker Bertran de Lis, was immedi ately dispatched to a small house, which was the rendezvoas of the conspirators, but, unfortu nately, the troops arrived too early, and found only a few persons assembled. Sixteen of these Criminals were surprised and taken to the City prison, whither the Judges immediately-repaired to take their examinations. From the particu lars which have transpired, it seems th a t th e y have been supplied with money, but they know not by whom, and that they were promised the plunder of the richest houses in Madrid. They have also given information of a depot of arms, ammunition, Sze., belonging to the conspirators; and it has likewise been discofered that several fruitless attempts have been made to seduce the soldiers of the infantry of the Royal Guard: A later accOunt adds, that they have not yet been able. to detect the persons who furnished the money. The. Archdeacon Vinuesa still persists in his silence. lie - will make - no disclose es to the Judges ; and in the conversations which he holds with the, sentinels of the National Girard on duty over him, he appears resigned to his fate----" shall die," he says, " on the scaffold, where many others haVe died before me, and still more, will share a like death." 'RCN, FEB . . 12.—A letter received from Ma, drid represents that .capital as - being still in a very disturbed state on the lath inst. The Mu nicipality had . sent several deputations .to the permaneut Deputation of the Cortes, the objects of which were not known. The Cortes will re assemble on the lst of March, and the first mea sure to be taken into consideration by them will be the suppression of the Body Guards. The individuals of this corps are now under arrest. The conspiracy for establishing a Republic in Spain, discovered at Malaga, of which Medialdua was the author and principal, assumes a more serious character. Two individuals, supposed to be accomplices of Medialdua, have been arrested at Antequcra ; and it is imagined the conspira tors in this design are dispersed throughout all the south of Spain. The postscript of this letter speaks of an in surrection which had just broken out at Madrid, in which one of the Ministers had lost his life. SPANESII pAPFitS.

Another is now in circulation, dated from " The Head-qUarters of Truth, in thf , .l 1 th month of first Olympiad of the captivity of Spain by the Faction." This paper, like all the preceding ones of die same description, isfttlt of the most absurd calumnies, and the most atm,. cious ienpostures; it invites the Spaniards t 4 overcome their present disgrace or to peiish. The accounts from Comma state, that th Civil and Military Authorities have received by the post a great number of the irtflainmatdry Pro-- clarnations of the pretended General Thigal— Considering` the great number of these Proclama - - tions that have been put into circulation,flit trust be presumed that th e authors- of them hav:.! very extensive Printing -office at Madrid. There have been serious disturbances at raw plona, which arcse from the circumstance of many persons, among whom were the Captain- Geneial and the Political Chief, wearing greet scarfs ; many persons refused to wear them, but the wearers decried as anti-constitutionalists and servile those, who'did not wear them: which gave rise to various quarrels.

It is added that the resistless ascendancy of Mr. Alderman Woof) has led to these resignations.
