nounce-the Kingdom of Naples or not, but that it was impossible
fur his Britannic Majesty to support his rights by his assistance, in
opposition to the plan of the Allies, and to their disadvantage, or to
enforce his pretensions to recover the Neapolitan dominions. Lord
Castlereagh added, that it was the design of the British Government
to proceed at the same time iu its Treaty with the King of Naples,
and in all arrangement for the indemnification of King Ferdinand ;
that if the Sicilian Government were resolved to act in. opposition
to the designs of that of England, the latter would consider itself
as released from all obligations to interfere, having founded an 'sr•
mistice on the principles of the treaty concluded between Austria
and the King of Naples, and that it would even think itself obliged
immediately to conclude a treaty with hint; Joachim.
" sth. The process verbal of the conferences at Chatillon. whereon
a proposal of the Duke of Vicenza concerning Italy, and Naples in
particular, the Plenipotentiaries declared that it was not for France
to interfere in the affairs of Italy, because the Allied Powers had
already determined its fate ; and that as for Naples, they had con-
tracted engagements which guaranteed the possession of that king-
dom to the reigning Dynasty.
" It is known, that among the various Committees formed at
Vienna, there is one for the affairs of Italy. It is composed of
Messrs. Wessenberg for Austria, Count Nesselrode for Russia,
Count Alexander No:idles for France. Lord Castlereagh for Eng-
land, and the Count de Labrador for Spain. The decision upon the
Papal Legations, upon the indemnities Cu. the Queen of Etruria and
the Empress Maria Louisa, are in the province of this Committee.
But many persons pretend that it cannot discuss the question rela-
tive to Naplei and Sicily, and maintain that the Congress is assem-
bled to dispose of the possession of those countries only which are
considered as conquered from France, and as yet without any So-
vereign. In this case Napfes would be obliged to make all its ef-
forts to resist its enemies, and to obtain against them the assistance
of its ancient and new allies."

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

VIENNA. JAN. 20.—News, and even political conjectures, become
every day more scarce : no more is said of the arrival of the King of
7iaxony at Vienna, or even at Prague. As to POlatifi, it is asserted
that every thing is arranged. A usitia will retain Old Gallicia, which
will be increased by all the territory hut wren it and the Ntdda. Prus-
sia will hive all the country west of Prosna and IVartha, and from the
Lake Goplo to Thorn. This city, as I have already °harried, and
that of Cracow, will be free cities. Austria and Prussia will grant
vileges, and a representation by states to the provinces of Poland
also be allowed. •

VIENNA, JAN.2O.—AII the politicians who have calculated eon.
fidently upon peace, and have made their plans and news accordingly,
find themselves a little out in their reckoning. A note is mentionee,
sent oa the it?th of this month by the Prussian Ministers to the other
Ambassadors at the Congress, which is every thing but conciliatory,
°cassia persists in her demand to the re-union of all &awl to her
states, and that this point should he first arranged.
On the other side see learn that the King of Saxony has di-eared
that he will not give up any part of Isis kinrdom ; that be protests
against all kinds of usurpation, and that he ssi!l risk every esisig rathcr
than consent. This detei ruination will become much more embartas-
silly., since it even resists the plan of indemnity proposed by Austria.
FRONTIETIS or SA xONV, JAN. 20.—We are assured that the project
for carr)ing off the King of Saxony, which has been so much spoken it,
is only an idle invention of his enensie's. to answer their Oven purposes.
In oider to give the story some sl.ew of authenticity, the authors took
care to name the place to which lie was to be transported, nnil the
names of the pretended perpetrators of the deed. The measures tak u

IMPORTANT STATE PAPER.

THE CASE OF KING JOACHIM, OF NAPLES.

MEMORIAL.

(AS PUBLISHED IN TILE ALLGEMF.INE ZEITUNG.)

" Naples December 27, 1814.

" Before the prorogation of (the British) Parliament, Mr. Whit-
bread introduced some discussions on the connections of England
with Sicily and Nartles, and there is no doubt of Vieir being the sub•
ject of fresh debates when it opens again. For this reason, and
also for the better understanding of the future decision of the
Vienna Congress, on this subject, we think it of use to relate, from
good sources of information. how Joachim, King of Naples, first
formed his connection with Amstria, and through this with other ,
Po wers.

' As early as Mara, 13:3, King Joachim began his first nego-
ciations at Vienna, by his Minister the Duke of St. Angelo. He
had been irritates(' by the well known article in the Moniteur, which
placed him below the Viceroy of Italy. -These negociations did
not proceed with any degree of activity, till the mouth of June,
when the King of Naples substituted for the Duke of St. Angelo,
Prince Cariati and Mr. Schenina, Marquis of St. Elia. At the thee
that the Emperor of Austria was at Opotichina and Gitsehen in Bo-
hemia, the negociations were again at a stand, and the Austrian
Government once suffered forty six days to pass without answering
a line to the pressing representations of its Minister at the Court of
Naples, Count Mier, or to the notes of the two Ministers above
mentioned. At last, afti r Austria had decidedly joined the Allies,
Prince Me(ternich gave Count Mier instructions in cyphers to con-
clude a treaty. These dispatches were delivered to the Neapolitan
Plenipotentiaries, to send then► by a courier of that nation ; it being
feared that an Austrian (courier might be stopped by the French
in the north of Italy. Mr. Cariati's courier passed, as had been
agreed on, through Nlunich, to get their new passports. But Mr. De
Carracciolo, the Neapolitan Minister at the Court of Bavaria, de-
tained him sixteen hours for his own correspondence, so that he did
n reach Naples till the 21st of August, where he missed King
Joachim. who had left it on the Ist. This Prince, who had been
above a month without news from Vienna, tl►ought himself betrayed
or neglected, and bad taken the only step which was left him, that

Donna Castilla (Mrs. Egerton), the sister of Sy/eio, burr at .the indif-

hidora to admit the addresses of her brother. For this purpose she

proceeds to her castle, and requests permission to communicate to her
an important secret. Oil gait:ing admittance, she stated that her mis-
tress, hum she represents as the enemy of Isidorn, had him:tied her
that she intended to visit the castle snider the disguise of her bro-
ther Sylcia, and after having gained the affections of hidara, to
hrn w off her di•gui-e, and expose h-r to the ridicule: of her friends.
Isidera conseqw.ntly determines toturn the joke agaiust her expected
visitor?, and on the a-rival of the real'Don Sy/ria, treats with the
utmost.familiarity, ifrers him her band, mid de,iies bits, to confess his
design. both parties are now lost in amazement, when the mystery is
expl tined by the art iVal of Camilla, and Isidnra, Unwilling to withdraw
the promise she had contracted to the supposed ludj, bestows her band
On Sylvio.

The merryment of the piece k mnrh increased by the sitnation of
Don Sylrio'4 servant (NIE. Liston), who being taken, like his mas-
ter, for a maid, receives the same treatment from the interior females
of the caste, and astonishes them by the case and impudence with
which he sustains the character of a nom.

The piece, though not strictly original, probably boast more at-
tractions than it ever before possessed. It abounds with the sweetest
melodies that the EngHsi: hasp has lately produced, and the whole of
the music does great ilOllOlll to the talent of Bishop and Reeve.
The actine was excellent, and we do not remember any piece
whiekevcr seemed to create more lively and general satisfaction.
On Thursday the retinal of the old favourite, Matthews, in the
elwaeter of linskin, in Killing No ',birder, was greeted at this
Theatre, by a most MIME roils audience, with the peals of applau-e
and loud cheering. His kindless, anti that of Liston, afforded room
for a ludicrOns conversation betwecn them, w hie!' heightened the
lummom of the piece. He was encored in his songs and never did.
played his comic powers with greater etiiet.

on board the Malta, on finally leaving Tarragona, he met Admiral
Hallowell, coming omit of the after cabin, with a letter in his hand
ready for sealing.. He heard him say, "he hoped he could pet it off be-

Prussia insists with undiminished Vigour in a flesh note upon

the first arranged. Austria will not consent to the union of
all Saxony, but merely of a part. The King of Saxony will
not consent to cede any. Poland, which seemed to be a

ma. Den cox.—Some few weeks back a dreadful outrage was
committed upon this Gentleman, in the Shepherd and Shepherdess
riclds, the particulars of which we inserted in onr Paper at the
tiree.--Mr. Deacon, having recovered strength surreient to go to
his warehouse in Watling-street, from his lodgings, packed op a small
parcel of silk• last Tuesday evening, and informed his clerk he was
going to spew them to a customer, from which time he has neither
been seen or heard of, notwithstanding the most diligent inquiries.
There are many circumstances connected with this strange affair,
with which we are acquainted, but from their mysterious complexion
we decline at present making public. Thia much it is but justice to
state, that Mr. Deacon is a Gentleman highly respected ; that the
present appearance of affairs do not lead to a conclusion of embarrass-
ment ; and that, upon inspecting his apartments; tl ere was not any
Ming to indicate but what he meant to return the same night.
What is rather remarkable, an anonymous letter was found in his
room, threatening that the party who began their work in the
Shepherd and Shepherdess fields were determined to make it more.
sure when they next laid hold of him.
On Monday, Captain Thomas Finney, of the country ship Caroline
from Bombay, appeared bethre the Lord Mayor, at the glan%ion
House, and underwent a final examination, charged with having
caused the death of a man, named Bohr John, by throwing him
overboard from the cabin window into the sea, on the passage
from India to Europe. A great quantity of additional evidence was
adduced. which hilly warranted the Mayor in saying that the charge
was nothing short of a find conspiracy against Captain Finney, mho
was accordingly liberated.

BUONAPARTE'S FATE !

AND

EuRDPE'S DESTINY!
...e.ifi.p

SIR,-My initials are known to many astrological students
in this metropolis; perhaps your correspondent Cassandra
Las met with them.

0 her calculation of Buonaparte's nativity I wish to ob-
serve, .hat the position she has selected, so far from giving
either dianity or riches, would deny both ; and the native
born under such horoscope would not survive infancy ! So
says Ptolemy.
I have been attentively considering his real scheme of
birth (14 deg. of Leo on the midhaven), and I trust, from a
true analysis of the nature of the directions and transits of the
planets through his future life, connected with the radical
planetary indications, that the following predictions will in
the end be verified :

Buonapa, te will die_a natural death !
Buonaparte has yet more than ten years to live !
Buonaparte will always be a Sovereign !
I have good reason to think, Emperor of France !
So much for the Genethliacae part of the science : a word
now on State Astrology. The trire of Jupiter and Saturn,
from human signs, and in great strength of dignities, declares
wisdom and peace to European councils, and announces to an
anxious world, tbat at this awful crisis there will be No War !

OLD BAILEY.
-.....--

.

The Sessions commenced on Wednesday before Lord rlienborough,
Mr. Justice Chambre, the Lord Mayor and City Officers. .
Richard Nayler was indicted for feloniously stealing a horse, the
property of Zr. Maul, Surgeon, in Piccadilly, iik Mao 1813. Ths
prisoner was in confinement on another charge of felony, when he
was identified a few weeks since. At the time of stealing this
Morse. he had a temporary residence at. No. 9.V, Park lane, and taking
a tansy to the animal, as one which would suit his neice, lie sent his
groom to the house of the prosecirtor to enquire about the docility
of the horse, &c. and to request permission to have a trial in the
Park, The prosecutors servant took the horse to Park lane, the
next mcrning, for the said trial, when he saw the prisoner and another
gentleman at the door. Nayler desired the horse might be taken
to Howe's livery stables preparatory to the trial (where he said he
had other horses standing) and his orders were complied with. The
next day he sent a promissory note, payable at seven days, to the
prosecutor, which, to use his own word=, " first opened his eyes ,"
and on sending to 22, Park lane, instead of finding Nayler, the house
was full of clamorous creditors. The prosecutor never heard of his
horse since The animal was but about half an hour in Howe's
livery stables; and so far from the prisoner having any stand of horses
there, lie was not even known by the ostler.
Lord Ellenborough laid down the law, that to obtain the horse
by fraud and deception, without
.actual sale, constituted klony.—
Goiltv—Death.
_ . . . . . .

Mr: Maul having nothing but pnblic justice in view in this prose-
cution, recommended the prisoner to the merciful consideration of
the Court.

Oldfield, a young man of twenty four, was charged with
feloniously ravishing Eliza Willis, a child under ten years of age.
The counsel for the prosecution submitted to the Bench, that the
minor, under ten years of•age cannot consent to the violation of her
person, as the law protects her infancy. This case excited much
interest among the. auditory. The prosecutrix was a child one week
tinder the age of ten, and on the '2C.AIi of February the prisoner met
her at Chelsea, and after enquiring into the situation father
• and mother, he allured her, by the promise of some silver, to an
unfinished house, situated adjoining a lane, leading from Brompton
Crescent, on the grounds of a Mr. Dennis, where he accomplished
his purpose. We forbear to enter into any further particulars, by
which. decency would be offended. The child gave her evidence
under symptoms of grief and shame, which excited the most lively
sensations in her beh.lG The facts were elltaeted flout btu by Mr.

with respect to the nature of the transactions at Fontein')'eau
last
year. It was generally represented, and the well-inform-
ed did not choose at that time to correct the misconstruction,
that Napoleon, deserted by his capitil and almost abandoned
by his arns3s, had actually fallen helpless into the hands of
the Allies, who through an excess of generosity, had not only,
granted him his life, but allowed him to retire to Elba,
Where he was to be kept as a prisoner of state with a splendid
allowance, and out of mockery. with the empty titles of Em-
peror and King: That a strong guard was set upon him, and
that any attempt on his part to quit the island would sub-
ject him to the penalty. of death. Now all this, according
to his Lordship, was a complete misrepresentation. Buona-
parte, at the time when the Convention of Fontainbleau was
concluded, negociated as an independent Sovereign at the
head of a powerful army, and having at his command all the
other corps stationed in the various provinces of France.
Even the troops 44 paralised for the moment by Marshal
Marmont" (a pretty clear acknowledgment of the imputed
treachery of that officer) were not expected to abide by the
capitulation he had signed shoald the war continue, but were
Considered ready to join their Imperial Chief. So far from any
defection on tbe part of the French armies, such was their
spirit and temper, added the Noble Lord, that it became the
interest of the Allies to terminate the war as amicably and
speedily as possible. Even Insurrections began to appear its

was, that he proposed what terms he pleased to have, or in
other words, dictated the treaty, It was not generosity, •
maintained his Lordship, which induced the Allies to concede
those conditions, but good policy, which in diplomacy
is only another name for necessity. He was n t
therefore sent as a prisoner to Elba. lie went there as
an independent Sovereign, free within aid without the
limits of the Island. Ilis flag' was respected in every
port, his commerce extensive, and if he pleased to
visit any part of the Continent in O. tpanner unconnect-
ed • with a political enterprise, he was -to be received as
any other Sovereign travelling incognito. Colonel Camp-
bell had no orders to watch, the British cruisers none to stop
him. Such measures would have been an infiingement cif
the treaty concluded with him, and which, in those partici-
leis, was religiously kept. His Lordship acknowledged thct
he perceived the danger of placing a man who had lately
swayed the imperial sceptre in such a situation, almost i
view of the countries which he had governed, and which we. e
still filled with his adherents. He stated that he had oppoced
the arrangement as soon as it was in his power, but that when
the policy of conceding those conditions was preyed to lihn

During Lord Cochrane's confinement in the strong room
of the King's Bench prison, two soldiers were daily placed
as guards over him; in the course of the day, however, he
was permitted with another person, to play at racquets within
the small yard of his place of confinement. From many
inquiries, there is every reason to believe that the singular
escape was not effected by getting over the walls, but in the
dress of a tall woman, who was a constant visitor in the
prison, and who, by the frequency of her passing in and out,
made the deception easy. She is very remarkable in her ap-
pearance, and it is said the disguise was perfect. With the
prisoners his Lordship is very popular; in acts of charity and
relief to distressed individuals in similar confinement, he has
already distributed amongst them nearly kOOOl.

POLITICAL DISZTESITION.

PRINCE RESENT'S MESSAGE-tIESITATION OP THE

On the eve of earthquakes, a momentary serenity generally
pervades the air, unusual stillness sits on earth, and ocean ,
heaves its waves in seen majesty Nature seems to ponder
awhile within herself whether she will give way to the deso-
lating impulse, or will restrain its fury. Such is the. sudden
pause which seems to have occurred in the match of ap-
proaching events. On the eve of a fresh universal convul-
sion, Europe looks round and hesitates. The sword is
grasped, but yet unsheathed ; the trumpet is ready, but
silent still. All is breathless expectation and frarful awe
Shall devastation still be forced to sleep, or shall the volcano.
burst at once and fill the earth with flames and ruin? The
breath of a few potentates will determine. What can oc-
casion their hesitation ? After issuing the Declaration of the
13th of March, now acknowledged to be authentic, who
could expect that they would chain _their ardour and not
rush at once 20 sweep the disturber from the face of the
world ? It is true that he was then but just landed and that
all the chances of probable success were against him. It was
therefore easy to contemplate the destruction of a man, sup-
posed to be engaged in an hopeless enterprise, which the
sound of opposition would alone suffice to defeat. It is also
true that his unimpeded return to Use throne, the universal
submission of the people, the adhesion of the Marshals and
the flight of the reigning family, have produced a vast al-
teration in his circumstances. But yet, pledged as they
were, no hesitation was expected from them, and it was
thought by many and hoped by some, that ere now Europe
would have been involved in the blaze of war and the gene-
rations of mankind once more committed to the sword.
Fired with prophetic rapture at such a prospect, some of our
papers had exultingly announced that the Prince Regent's
Message to both Houses would be found equal to a decla-
ration of war against France. What was the astonish-
ment of the whole nation, therefore, at finding that
it only mentioned precautionary measures, which it was
most wise to adopt,- and left the question of war or
peace totally untouched. This astonishment has since
subsided. Lord Castlereagh's explanatory speech on Friday
last, when the Message was taken into consideration, has
solved the enigma, and it is now known, that if the Powers
of the Continent have not acted up to their hurried de
claration, and not waged with Napoleon Emperor, that war
which they denounced against him when he landed with a few
followers on the coasts of France, it is because weighty consi-
derations of prudence and policy have interfered. It appears
that hitherto the whole of Europe has beon kept in the dr

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

ROUEN, APRIL 9, (7 A. M.) --Orders have been sent all
along the French coast to mount the great guns, and the
artillerymen have marched to put it in the most complete
state of offence and defence. The cry of the military is
loudly for war; and there is every appearance of immediate
hostilities. The people, however, groaning under calami-
ties of every description, are almost to a loan for peace, par..
Ocularly with England, the late Saviour of Europe. Al-
though it is impossible to say, when war once commences,
how long its duration may be, yet men of the best judgmenr
here are of opinion that it will be short, but very vigorous
and very bloody.
Batoscrosr, APRIL 8.---We have conversed with a most
intelligent Gentleman, who left Paris as late as Wednesday
night. The utmost ignorance prevails in that capital as
to the sentiments of the Allies respecting Buonaparte,--
The Morning Chronicle is the only paper to which the pri-
vilege of a free circulation in France is granted by Napoleon.
None others. since the 27th ult. bad been seen in Paris. Buoy
naparte is most lavish in his praise of the English. lie has is,
sued a proclamation, allowing them their own time to make
'their departure. The universal sentiment in Paris is this---that
they would rather have peace without the Emperor, than war
with him. Ah communication between Par is and the south of
France w7s completely cut off ; no post had arrived from
Bordeaux, Tolouse, &c. since the 24th of March. The utr
most force that Buonapirte can bring into the field is esti-
mated at 120,000 men. lle professes the utmost desire for
peace, and takes intloite pains to make the people believe
that Austria and England are well inclined towards him.
The 4th inst. was the day fixed for the arrival of the Ern.
press : the public were disappointed. Still the infatuation
exists, that she is actually on her journey towards Paris.
Buonaparte almost daily reviewed troops, and was hourly
exFectud to set out for his army on the frontiers of Belgium.
This is the, sub't.rnce of the in:cfligence communicated to us
by the Gentleman above alluded to, who appears to have
had access to the first sources of information.-- Bri;;Atun
