Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday last reached us this morning in regular course; those of Saturday have since arrived by Express.— Their contents are of the'utroost importance, and "will be found in a subsequent column. They af ,ferd a Confirmation of the repulse of the Neapo litans at Rieti, on the 7th, for it appears they _mere th e attacking party ; but the loss on either ,sid e Ras very-inconsiderable. The Austrians, 4L t.°r this action, penetrated into the Neapolitan territory-, without meeting with any opposition, 4 " Cu the 10th their advanced guard entered 4 quila, the capital of the Abruizi.

We 4l present' to the People this day one of the t .a t important documents that has been brought h tir ward on t h e su bj ec t o f P o pi s h Cl a i ms t o th e r i 4 session o f L eg i s l a ti ve Power.

The talents and the learning of tr:IIVILNER are well known to the Catholic 11 ° '-3") and are admitted also by the friends of the tr ot Church, and it may fai r ly b e i n f erre d 1 1' 8 1 the other two persons who have subscribed ,gents Declaration are men of correspondent , Le nts, learning, and reputation among the Ro ""z Catholie People. As a proof of the sincere 4 ' 41 with which the Doctor and his Coadjutors tie actuated on this occasion, we are assured, i l ' 4 t printed copies of the document in question h k , s ve been privately circulated among the Mem ivn'ts of the House of Commons, in order to im eves- . . L a their minds with a full conviction of the th e ellicacy of Mr. PLUNKETT'S Bills. It may suit 'e views of some of those who advocate the 714.118 e of th e R oman Catholics to represent Dr. 1-It.xcit us visionary end an enthusiast, "ho has' lost his authority and influence I ttnong his brother Papists; and the subject .°), ay be t rea t e d w i th sophistical reasoning on QUe hand y or unseasonable jozularity and . . levity on tii6 other, .but it is of the d+ epest. importance to the religious and political Esta blishments of the Country.' The abilities and the knowledge of Dt% MILNER being admitted; it is absurd to suppose that he would hazard jiffs re putation by the avowal of principles, or the de velop'inent of intentions, that are not sanctioned by the Head of the Papal Church.---4t May be thought that by the participation of Papists in the political and legislative• authority of the State, Dr. MILNER would sink into it6ignifi cance, and hence that he is induced to come for ward .on the present occasion ; but all wise men will draw a different inference ; for as it is the avowed- duty of the Papists,, indirectly and di rectly to attempt the total demolition of the Protestant Establishment, and as he is a distin guished Member of the Roman Catholic Body, they would naturally look up to him for counsel and assistance in the great, and, what they deem the sacred duty of their lives, to effect the full restoration of a Popish Ascendancy. Mails from Flanders, and Hamburg!), and Madrid P- t. th 13th► .'apers to a _a inst. arrive . yester day. They furnish little information. In an article from Vienna, of the Bth inst. it is stated that many notes had passed between the Austrian Court and that of Turin,respectig the establish mentof an Italian Confederation. It was consi dered certain that a Russian fleet would soon ap pear in the Adriatic, in order to•protect the commerce of that country and Atistria from the Neapolitans, f t appears from a letter of the Governor of Ceuta that there was some exPecta , tion of an attack of the Moors. At a late hour last night:another mail arrived froM Flanders. From the Brussels Papers we extract the following, articles :7 " Bnu s SELS, 11A RC31 22.—A mounts- from the frontiers ,of France, dated the 18th, say, the extraordnary events whit-% have just taken place in Piedmont excite, at this moment, the serious attention of our Government. Under these circum. stances it seems that it has been judged necessary to assemble a corps of observation at the foot of the Alps. Several regi ments are already mentioned (including troops of all •arms); which are to leave the northern frontiers for this destination.— This news has caused a great sensation here.' Within these three days an extraordinary number. of couriers have passed between Paris and Amsterdam. " VIENxA, MAitairlo.—The preparations at the Palace are continued for the Emperor Alexander, who it is said will not remain above five or six days with us. A measure has just been taken, which shews that it.is intended to push the war with energy and vigour. Many young men, in order to avoid the military conscription, had engaged in the service of the convoys and transports. Orders have been given to incorpo rate them in the regiments. " Since it is certainly .known that the heads of the -ruling party at Naples are re.olved to defend themselves to the last extremity, we see a new movement among the troops which re mained in Hungary and Bohennia, - very large parties are going to form echelons of communication between Lombardy and the army of General Frimont." The Earl of FIFE, we understand, has resigned his situation as a Lord of the Bedchamber to the KING, and has been succeeded by Lord LOTAINE, the son of the Earl of BEVEIILEY. THE PAPISTS.---It appears from " The Catho lic Advocate" and other sources of information, that the great body of the Roman Catholics are dissatisfied with Mr. PLITN- Ku TT's Bills, and it is stated that representations to that effect are expected, immediately from Ireland. Under these circum stances what benefits are to result from this measure, but merely . the aggrandisement of a. FEW ItieU r'AMILIEI, who will join the Borough Aristocracy, and increase the power of an Oligarchy which is not at present to be withstood ! The Papists say, that-" as to the discussion on Friday night on the " Oath of Supremacy, it is with regret they are compelled to " admit that the QPPOSURS of the cans; had the advantage in " point of argument, though it was carried by numbers." ENGLISH OAK.-I'e are liorry to obsarve the low prises at which Oak Timber is now sold. At some recent sales at the Sussex Wharfs, the prices were 31. 15s. per load, from 7 feet to 40 feet ; 41. 2s. 6d. per load, from 20 feet to 40 feet ; and 61. per load, for 40 feet and upwards to meet at 60 feet ! With a superabundance of Oak, Larch, and other tim ber of full growth in this country, there surely ought not to be any anxiety to encourage the importation of foreign wood either for house-building or ship-building. THE QUEEN.-Tilft indictment preferred by the Quux,w's Legal Advisers against the Rev. 11. Bt. Acow, of Liverpool, for an alleged libel, is, we understand,withdrawn. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.—Why is it, that the Government adopts a rational course of conduct towards this Colony, and directly the reverse towards British North Ame rica, regardless, in the former instance, even of the favouritism which has hitherto been shewn to Portugal ! But it is not now essential to the character of a modern Statesman or Legislator, that either should be consistent in principle or conduct. THE BL kGIC SEA.—AII the letters from Vienna speak confidently, that a Russian fleet from the Black Sea will support the attack on Naples--but we are inclined to think the Emperor has other objects in view. His extensive naval preparations in this quarter, and his immense army in Georgia, are indicative of his intentions with regard to Turkey and Persia, and we must pot be surprized if at no great distance of time he declares war against them. An increasing com merce from the Netherlands to the Black Sea has commenced ; is it - not worthy the attention of our Merchants and Ship Owners ? SIR HENRY 131/NBURY, who hRS recently cut so conspicuous a figure in the county of Suffolk, was, during the war, in the Colonial department. Lady Sunbury is, we under stand, a very pleasant, conversable woman ! ! HANOVER.—It is stated that Ills Majesty in tends, on his return from Ireland, to visit His Hanoverian Do minions. R ult.—The - importation of Rum into the seve ral ports of Canada and Nova Scotia, in the course of the last year, was upwards of thirty-two thousand puncheons ! The amount of the imports of Rum into Cape Breton, Prince Ed ward's Islancf, and Newfoundland, we have not yet received, but the above statement sufficiently shews the importance of the intercourse between the King's Colonies in North America and the British West Indies. The accounts of thia and the other branches of the Colonial Trade ought annually to be laid be fore Parliament, as we are convinced that this trade may be still greatly extended Old improved. SaapiNlA.—lt seems that the PRINCE C4ILIGNAN is only the presumptive Heir to this Kingdom, on the suppo sition that the Salic Law prevails in Sardinia ; for if it does not, and . which is contended b' the Austrians, two females will pre cede him : one of whom is married to the Duke of itloDN:.ra, who is strongly in the interest of Austria. The misrepresentations which have been most industriously circulated among the members of both Houses of Parliament by the parties engaged in the Norway and Baltic Trade, that an independent and intelligent Member of the House of Com mons is PERSONALLY interested in the Timber Trade of British North America, we are authorised to contradict, in the most unequivocal manner, as wholly unfounded ' • as the mer cantile concerns of the Honourable Member for Sandwich are confined to the Sugar Colonies, and that he never was in any manner connected in trade with the British American Colonies. The motives of these misrepresentations are obvious--3lr. having ventured to express opinions favourable to the existim; policy of the country, and of the necessity of encouraging the Colonial Timber Trade. We, however, wish we could say, that all the advocates for the Norway and Baltic Trade were equally disinterested. In making this observation we are far from wishing it to be understood, that we are desirous of in sinuating any thing against the character of any, individual ; but it is due to the numerous and valuable classes of the British community, who are so deeply interested in the changes recom mended, that this explanation should be . given, that no im proper inferences may be irawn from the misrepresentations we have mentioned. The Royal yacht's at Deptford are ordered to be fitted for sea, and to accompany his MAJESTY on his voyage to Ireland. It is said his MAJESTY will embark at Brighton, and proceed to Ply mouth, to view the Breakwater, and thence to Put•lin. PRENCII PAPERS. The Ilivtiiteur contains an article fre;m Fltr ence of the 10th, which gives the following ex tract from the FIRST BULLETIN OF THE AUSTRIAN ARMY. " General Pepe had several days since collected the greater part of his fOrces between Civita 'Neale and Aquila. On the 7th he advanced with a body of 10,000 men upon Rieti. Two columns of this 'corp's nianceuvred - on the heighti which-form the valley of Rieta, and threatened to turn our advanced guard, Which was posted there, under the dreters of General Geppert, whilst a third column moved straiOt forward on the road from Civita Titicale to Rieti. These, movements were judi ciously conducted, and the poiritS of attack Well-chosen, Our light troops suinred themselves to he approaChed, not yet be heving that they Were. enemies who were marching • toWards them. We had expressed to then/ Only the !Vora of peace. A very brisk fire-soon convinced us that we had niistaken their character. The battle then Commenced; it was near the hour of noon ; the enemy's attack became serious, 'and Lieut. Gene ral Walinoden ordered his reserve, 'which was posted at . Citsa Vicentini, in the rear of- Rieti, to march to the support of Gene. ral Geppert. He directed an attack, with a eery. inferior force, upon the two columns which forted the enemy's win, and they' were driven back into the mountain* notwithstanding• all the advantage of the ground being in thsir favour. The center column fell back upon Civita Ducale. " The enemy abanclOncd that city at ten o'clock at night, after having pillaged it. Our advanced guard immediately oc cupied it, and our soldiers were received as deliverers. " We lost in this action about 50 men killed or wounded. Captain Schmidt, of the jth battalion of chasseurS,• *as killed. Captain Pfield, of the hussars of the King of England, andl Lieutenant Braun, of the Ist battalion of chasseurs, were wounded. _ _ " During the battle of Rieti, a body of 3000 men that had assembled at beonesse, advanced upon Pie-di-Lugo, and at tacked Col. Schneider who was posted there. He repvlsed them with tho - loss of several killed or wounded. In the courst of the day we took several prisoners, and amang than a Cap tain of General Pepo's staff." CHAMBER OF DriTUTIES. The Chamber is still occupied with the discus sion of the financial accounts ..of 1820. In the sitting of Wednesday,... - Casimir Perrier charged the Ministers with preventing the Journalists from publishing any . thitig favourable to the Neapolitans, but when crews 'of their defeat arrived, the Minis ters were eager to annouace it upon the Exchange, .as-had been done that morning. M. Pasquier and M. Roy justified the conduct of the Ministers iu suppressing such vague intelligence as could only. furnish aliment to the passions of a certain party, and at the sane time in giving the most prompt publicity to the official advises of military opera tions, whether in favour of the Austrians or Nea politans. M. Roy having read the notice which he sent to the Exchange respecting the affair of Rieti, General Foy furiously exclaimed, " It is a disgrace to humaniti. It is a foolish act of the Administration. Never was it before thought of thus to publish -the bulletins of the enemy. It is • dreadful l" M. Chanvelin observed, that the conduct of Ministers justi fied the distinction which the Austrian declara tion made between England and France, in stating that the latter adhered to the system of the Allies, though with certain restrictions which had not been made public. General Foy, again adverting to the notice posted at the Exchange, said the account was false—it was a lie. Mili tarily speaking, it was topographically impossible that an engagement of any influence on the ope rations of the war' could have taken place at Rieti. But admitting the hypothesis of the Mi nisters to be true—that the Austrians had enter ed the Abruziia—so much the worse for them, never would they get out of them again. This extraordinary announcement of a victory on fhe part of the Austrians was a departure from neu trality. Had the Neapolitans gained the vic tory, would. Ministers have announced it ? (M. M. Pasquier and Roy exclaimed, " 'Yes!") Ile be-• Belied the contrary. He then proceeded to de nounce that policy which led the Minist - ers into a doublealiplomacy—to have M. Blacas, as Mi nister with the captive King of Naples at Lay bach, and M. de Fontenay as Minister at Na ples, accredited to that worthy descendant of Henry I V., who was fighting for the-independ ence of his people. In the same spirit they treated the Prince of Castel - cicala as Neapolitan Ambassador at Paris, though he was disavowed by the Duke de Gallo and the Neapolitan na, tion. All this was unworthy of a great nation like France. The events in Italy would kindle a general war in Europe. The barbarians of the North were once more pouring their, hordes upon the South ; and the constitutional nations of the South, Spain, Naples, France, and England, must unite to resist the invasion. M. Pasquier de fended the publication of the intelligence, de clared the determination of France to maintain a perfect neutrality, and justified the having an accredited Minister near - the - person of the King of Naples at Laybach, .whilst he = was still ac knowledged as a Sovereign, and at the same time having a Charge d'Affaires at Naples to attend to the interests of the French nation. Iu the Sitting of Thursday the conduct of the French Ministry, with regard to Naples, was attacked by General -Sabastiani, who inveighed in strong terms against the ambitious projects of Austria in Italy, as well aa against the confe deracy of , the Allied Sovereigns, comparing the Congress of Laybach to the-bed of Procrustes, by which the moral - and intellectual faculties of na tions, contending for liberty and fres constitu- tions, were attempted to be regulated. • PARIS, MARcu is expected that the direst news from the Austrian aruly will no longer be received by way of -Piedmont; and that, in future, it will reach us through the Tyrol and by sea. It is thought that all letters from Milan, Florence, and !tome, are intercepted at Tdrin, and that those only are suffered to pass which centain intelligence propitious to the in surrection ; what proves that the news is not favourable to. the Carbonari is, that none has been receiveoi,in Paris. for three days past.• It is, however, impossible but that some events have taken place subsequently to those which we recently communicated:--(Quotidienne.) . It is confidently said, that commercial letters, which arrived yesterday (Tuesday last) from Qenua, announce that that City has hoisted the independent.flag. • PARIS, MAttcn 23.—The accounts from Turin communicate several decrees Of:the Prince of Carignano. One augments the number of, the members of the provisional junta.; another esta blishes a national guard in all the cities, towns, and villages ;, a third orders the publication in the Italian language of the Spanish constitution, provisionallyadopted. The second' article deter mines that no altera,tion shalt be made i 4 the organization of the, authorities: and their restteC tine rebrtions..with the goverf: . :nentti *,l while repotted at Paris that, I;yons was in a state .. o complete iosnrrectioa, rumours gttli more striitige were circutitedn,t,',lrlyons respecting Paris. On the Itith it was reperted that a cotri, plete revolution. had taken .place in the capital that the tri-coloured cociade was tnounted ; that the. 'King had abilicate4 .Much att . tation was caused by theoe rumours; several groups of the inquisitive, witO,sought after Abe details of. the news, -wore formed .ott tic. Place des Terreaux. It appears, also, that die t6a - ival. of a courier, and strange events of which he wasaup. posed to have fit-ought intelligence, we' e anuou'ne,- ed and attested in the most positive manner by a SieurVinay, a physician, in one of the most frequented collie houses in the city. But the falsehood of these reports vas soon rude known by the care . of the magistrates. The Sieur Vinay was arrested and delivered into the hands of the King's Attorney. It is to be remarked that these accounts were circulated in Lyons on the same day on which the official confirmation of the revo lution piedmbht Was r e c e i ve d, w hi c h was on the Sunday. This double+ circumstance was doubtless considered by the agitatorS as favour able to their projects. The authors of these criminal maturavres are blinded by their pas sions. They are ignorant that out of the circle which 'they agitate, every thing tends •to tranquillity ) repose, and conlidence. They may doubtless mislead some young heads; create an xiety, or even cause an ephemeral agitation. They may produce a momentary depression of the public funds ; but let them toot aspire to any Other success. As soon as they are. obliged to disclose their secret designs and criminal hope, the whole poptilation withdraw from them. For the rest, this event has not had the slightest con sequence, as -we have already said.; but it proves the good spirit of the city of Lyons, the com mercial situation of which continues very satis— factory.—(Journa/ de Paris.) Letters front Germany, received by yester day's post,, notice reports of a pacific nature, which had obtained sufficient credit at Vienna to raise the Austrian funds, which were falling. These letters go so far as to say that General Frimout had recently received orders not to ad vance, but to concentrate his forces, and wait for fur.her instructions.—(Constitutionnel.) Al tr. tN, Manor 10.—His Majesty the King of Naples passed through Mantua on the 6th inst. at 8 o'clock in the morning, and was received there with all the honours due to his rank. His Majesty' instantly resumed his route for Florence and expected to reach Modena that night. Narr.ts,M e n G.—The marching of troops, of militia, and of legionaries continues on all the menaced points. The Calabrias, though situated . at the extremity of the kingdom, had already sent, their volunteers. PatriotiC gifts, in arms and money, succeed each other throughout all the pro vinces. Salerno alone has given 276 ducats and 25 centimes. Castellencio Valinaggiore is distin guished by a conduct truly patriotic. The news of the departure of the militia and the legionaries uso sooner took place than a subscription was opened in favour of their families. The syndic of the district distributed corm and money at his oexpense, and afterwards marched with the soldiers. Though the Eng b Dud French merchants are exempt .from the forced loan of three millions, M. Block, a Jew• merchant of the first class, has volontarily paid the sum of 380 ducats, (about 1,600 fra►►'cs,)• and Mr. Graindorges, au English man, 10,0 ducats. MILITARY OPERATIONS IN ITALY. Letter, from Florence, dated the 13th, of March, contain the following /particulars : " Yesterday we had news from the Austrian army. After the affair of the 7th, General Stut terheim made a movement. After having passed through the defiles of Carniola, without having mot a single Neapolitan, he entered Jagliacazzo. Ile is ta2arching by Alba, Celano, Pescina, ou Sulmona. if he does not find General Pepe in the last town, he will proceed northward as far as Popoli. During this march Count Walmoden ought now to have reached Aquila. Rome, which is uncovered by this march of General Stutterheim, has not been diiquieted for a single moment. The Neapolitan General Ambrosio re mains at Itria and Fondi. Carascosa, it is said, is at San Germano. The Neapolitan Princes hare not yet set out for the head-quarters. Every thing that is reported respecting the interior of Naples is full of contradictions,and incoherences, amidst which it is impossible to form a single rational rottj t icture as to the situation of that city. 44 A 13u11ettn, dated Head-quarters, Antrodoco, mentions that General Stutterheim has taken the fort of Collo, and the passage of Cocca Cervo." SEQUEL OF THE OFFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FROM THE AUSTRIAN ARMY. . . " MEAD-QUARTERS, FRESCATI, 111.4.1tcm 12. " We have neither space nor time to insert the preliminary dispositions made by the General Baron Frimont to surmount the obstacles which presented themselves on entering the Abruzzi„ and we hasten to the particulars which are most in temsting. " The advance guard of the centre column under General Geppert, h A orders to advance rapidly until it should meet a resistance sufficiently vigorous to render it necessary to wait for the etrect of the march of the centre columns. _ " Our chasseurs fell in with the enemy at Canetto, the en trance of which was barricadocd ; but it was abandoned with out resistance. Before the village of Borgbetto we found a bridge on the Vellino. This bridge, commanded by heights, whose successive summits might have favoured a brisk. and murderous fire, was entrenched and was capable of an easy defence. A Regiment of Light Infantry was posted there. — Our chasseurs advanced boldly. The enemy did not stand their ground, and a superior Clfficer was wounded and made prisoner. " The enemy, instead of retiring on Borghetto, and thus defending the approaches to Antrodoco, threw himself into the mountains, whither he was pursued. 'We therefore arrived without any obstacle before Antrodocb. 'We there saw the neighbouring heights covered with infantry; and some cannon fired from the castle of Antrodoco made us believe that the enemy WES there in force, and that he would defend a post which nature had rendered- formidable. The movement of the column was slackened, to wait for the,arrival of Major d'Aspre, and the effect of his attack. Meanwhile we exchanged some cannon shot with the fort of Antrodoco. We heard Major D'Aspre's'fire, which was for some .moments very brisk. It was late, and the enemy profited of the night to escape into the mountains. Major D'Aspre occupies the abandoned fort, and the advanced guard of the centre established postsin the town. We found three thirty-six pounders and some ammunition . in the fort. " Major d'Aspre proceeded in his march at 'one in theiiii;in ing of the 10th, and advanced towards ..I%ladona data.

Three battalions of infantry were detached from Ri c ti by Colle-Alto on Capara d't)Sio and Carsolis with intent to fa. your the rritivement of the division of Stutterheini, .and to fill,, low the enemy on that roacl., by taking thedirec.:or. of Salrnouat the rest of this division was to reinforce the main body of the army at Valinontore.. , • " The whole of these dispositions were made up,Miia calcu lation of the pompous words of ileneral Pepe, and cttnformably to the efforts which he appeared to intend making, and 'which, iu effect Oft did make. "This operittion, began on the morning of the 7th, terminat ed on the evening of the 19th, by the acquisition Of Aquila. " These facts, thus detailed, in order that their nature may be better understood, prove more than all the speeches of foe tioun orators, what is the actual spirit of the NeapOlitian army and people. The - soldiers abandon. a.eause which never was theirs ; the militia, compelled to join through terror, have also manifested their real opinion.
