LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 12.
Three o'clock, p.m.

Important and gratifying intelligence is contained
~An the Paris Papers of Thursday last. The spirit of
liberty is making rapid end resistless progress in the
Italian states. Accounts received in Paris state,
that the Marches arc all in a state of insurrection—
•the tri-coloured flag floats upon the steeple of Offida
—the Romans are in a ferment, and the Austrians
have been obliged to halt, to secure their flanks and
rear, while the Patriot forces threaten them in front.
The absurd and ill-advised manifesto of the Pope,
recommending his sal jeets to receive the Austrians
as friends, and the aspersions cast by his Holiness
upon the revolution, have given great offence to the
people, and the corps of Neapolitans have carried
alarm into the Holy Pontiff's states. The troops
-upon the frontiers have endeavoured in vein to re-
press the spirit of the people, and all Italy appears
ready and determined to make common cause with
the Neapolitans. The municipalities of l3enevcntc,
of Ponte Corvo, and several communes under the
dominion of the Pope, have transmitted memorials,
signed by all the inhabitants, soliciting their incor-
poration with the kingdom of Naldes, which demand
has been supported with the utmost zeal by the
Deputy Pepe and his colleagues. It is probable that
by this time there is a general rising in the Roman
and Bolognese provinces, as a Guerilla warfare
.against the common enemy has already commenced.
The Austrians having sent a small detachment to
take possession of Rimini; it entered that place
during the day, without experiencing resistance,
but it was attacked and destroyed by the inhabitants
the sante night. Such is the enthusiasm of the peo-
ple: throughout Italy, that the Austrians, wherever
they approach, find themselves surrounded by ene-
inks. A body of Tuscans, amounting to 30U men,
composed of Italians who had fled to Naples, assem.
bled on the 15th of last month, in that part of the
Neapolitan territory which borders on the Roman
states, and boldly presented themselves to the main
army. They penetrated to Ancarona, on the right
bank of Tro:io, where they raistal the t'i-coloured
flag, and proclaimed the Spanish constitution. In
011ida and other small communes, they raised the
•revolutionary flag, released the prisoners, and aug-
mented their numbers by those who had been incar-
cerated for political offences. 'these patriots are
loaded with abuse in the Diario Romano, and from
that paper it is evident that they are both feared,
and in
on
force. The Austrians entered
Pesaro on the 16th ult. and Ancona the next day.
A large corps of the Neapolitan troops of the line
had taken a position in the Abruzzas, towards the
frontiers. 1t is expected at Naples, that the pro-
clamation of the parliament tsi the Sicilians will
produce the happiest effects.

ITALY —The following extracts of letters con-
tain the most recent inteliigcnce from the seat of
war :--
