The King of Naples Is expected to arrive at Laybech on
the 2d of January. Their Majesties the Emperors will he
there before him. All pouibk changes which the negocia-
times with the Neapolitans might present were taken into
consideration at Troppaw,and after mature deliberation it
was decided that it was contrary to the dignity of the Allied
Powers to treat either with the new Government of Napier,
.ot wills the Prince Vicar-General; that they CIO oegociate
ash none but the legitimate Sovereign ; that is to say, with
ling Ferdinand.
The points proposed by one of the Powers, as basis of
the negociations, are—first, More authority shall be given
to King Ferdinand, and the Crown shall enjoy more prero-
gatives. Second, The King shall be more independent of
the National Parliament, and shall be able to oppose his
Veto to all the Resolutions of Ike Parliament. Third, The
Parliament shall tie composed of two Chambers, one of
which shall conkist of Peen holding the dignity for life, sad
the Peerage shalt be hereditary. Fourth, The kingdom of
the Two Sicilies shall reimburse to Austria the eapenses
of the armament which it has just made.

The Prince and Princess of Orange bare sent 8,000 Ganes

We Late received the Pori, Papers to the gth
instant. An article copied by one of them from
the Austrian Observer, contains an exposition of
the motives which induced the Allied Sovereigns
to invite the King of NAPLES to Congress, and his
111.tir-Isve's answer. This extract i■ given in
another part of our paper.

The Manifebto of the Portuguese Nation to the
Sovereigns and People of Europe is given in our
preceding columns. This important document has
been published is the Lisbon Papers. It is u ►e-
view of the causes which led to the late Revolution
in Portugal, and a justification of that measure.
Spanish Papers arrived last night, from which we
hive made extracts.

We entreat the particular attention of our read-
ers to • report which will be found in another part
of our Paper of the proceedings that took place at

day last. This meeting, our readers are probably
aware, was euilvened by the High Sheriff of the
county, Mr. MUNDY, in consequence of a Requisi- •
tion, " signed," as we are told, " by a numerous
and highly respectable body of Noblemen and Gen-
tlemeii," fur " the sole purpose," as the Requisi-
tion informs us, of assuring the KING, " at this
important crisis, of their permanent attachment to
the Throne, and of their determination to support
the Constitution in all its branches." IVith this
admirable purpose of the Requisitiouists Hone were
Amur! to quarrel. To the assurance of attachment
to the Throne, and of a determination upon the part
of the meeting to support the Constitution in all
its branches, every heart best responsive. IVith
these words are necessarily sssociated in the minds
of Englishmen of every class in the state, ideas of
security and prosperity, which consequently render
the loyalty of an Englishman almost synoriinious
with his sense of the enjoyment of these invaluable
blessings. The result of the meeting clearly evinc-
ed that upon these points all persons assembled in
the County Dail of Derby on Monday last were
useeninsous, and we feel no difficulty in 'Arming,
that in expressing such eentintents, notwithstanding
the fool calumniei daily uttered by the corrupt
portion of the public I levoted to the Treasury,
the Nobility, Gentry, and other Freeholders" of
tile county of Derby, afforded a fair and correct
representation of the principles that actuate the
iininruse mass of the people of this empire. %Vies
