E irly in the morning of Sunday last a daring attempt
was mane to rob the dwellitig-house of Lady Peat, in•
Villers•street, Bishopwearmouth. An entry had been
effected by displacing one of- the squares in the hack par-
low window, and after securing the servant girl's lodging
room door, and regaling themselves %ids some bread.
and ohm which they limpid in the pantry, the robbers
proceeded up stairs to the bed room of her ladyship,
who was fast asleep, and had left the door (spew. When
awaked by the mese, she observed two own 'sicking the
lock of tier desk, and she vociferated " Thieves!"--a-
-" Murder!"—with all her might. One of them at-
tempted to silence her by beating her most severely upon
the face and head with his fist, and stuffing the bed-
clothes into her month, while the other was very deli-
berately ex-sunning the identical drawer that contained
her treasure. The sight of this st i 11l (dated her ladyship•
to fresh exertions, and her cries reached the rrsist►ess of
the adjoining house, who called up her servants to see
whil was the matter. The thieves finding that the
alarm was given, hastily decamped, after violently tear..

any other of her valuables, which were lodged in a secret
drawer at the end of that which had beets. rifled. Her

that they had some previous• intimation where the booty

LONDON, MONDAY, APRIL

J,amt ma pap T was g'in' to press, we have re-
ceived the official inte'lig.n.e.: of the entering of the
Austrians into the Ns•apolitan eap:aal.

The Paris papers of Friday have arrived. The
intelligence which they biing is defective and con-
tradictory with respect to the affairs of Italy. The
King of Naples reached Rome on the 17th ult. and
has since received the submission of Parliament.—
If this intelligence is correct, a counter-revolution
has been effected at Naples, as also at Piedmont.—
The rumour is repeated iu these papers, that Baron
Pasquier visited the Prince of Castelcicala, to inform
him of the actual entrance of the Austrians into the
Neapolitan capital. The account was received by a

telegraphic despatch, but the accuracy of the ra-
nt-nir is doubted. LI consequence of the dispersion
of General Pepe's troops in the Ahruzzos, or their
sudden retreat into the mountains, G; n. Frimones
advanced posts had entered San Germano on the
17th ult. but it was only on the 18th that this
main body was to enter the Neapolitan territory.—
The .11oniteur calculates, that. he wt..ull arrive at

Naples in four marches, that is, if he met with no
• further opposition, so that he reached the capital,
accmding to this conjecture on the 22d ; but that is
not probable, as he wool". vot attempt to move until
he concentrated the whole of his forces. Much
uncertainty, therefore, attaches to the nature of the

mission of General Fardella to King Ferdinand, as
it is quite. improbable that he could have carried any
proposition from the Neapolitan parliament for an
absolute submission to the dictates of the Austrians,
without a cessation of arms immediately t..king place,
and a notification of the fact being at the head-quar.
term of Gen. Frimont. It should also be recollected,
that the accounts in the Paris papers are all derived
from the Austrian authorities, anti therefore every
thing favourable to the calm of the patriots is sup-
pressed. If the Neapolitans have suecombed with-
out fighting for their liberties, they will have to
endure the punishment of the Austrians keeping
military possession of their country for a certain
period, while the holy alliance will form plans, pro•
bably of aggrandisement, that will involve Europe
again in war. From Piedmont we have received
Gazettes to the 2lst, but they add nothing to our
previous intelligcnence from that quarter. The
French papers pretend to give intelligence of a
much later date. The Prince of Carignan had
withdrawn to the Novarese, a nook of the Pied-
montese territory (bordering on the Grisons), where
the Spanish constitution had nut been acknowledged.
The Monileur affirms that a telegraphic despatch
had arrived in Paris on the 28th, stating that the
whole of Piedmont was replaced under the authority
of the King with the exceptions of the citadels of
Alexandria and Turin. The manner in which the
intelligence is said t.) have been conveyed from the
local government of Savoy to the local government
at Grenoble, does not entitle it to much credit,
although the account of the counter-revolution in
Piedmont has occasioned a rise of three per cent. in
the French funds.
