'ednesday, Paris Papers arrived to the 4d instant, con-

taining i►i'elligence from Italy to the 20th ult. Florence and
t.logna have been boll evacuated by the Neapolitans, and
occupie►i by the Auctrians. Part of the Neapolitans had

reached Pei ugia, which is full sixty miles south of Florence.
It thus appears the Neapolitan army has deacended into theßo-
vnan territories in full and rapid retreat, without having been
engaged in any but slight and indecisive actions. It s said
Mu, at 1141 issued a Proclamation, declaring the country in
dander, anti has fixed an Italian Champ de Mci, to be held at
Rome oh the I Sth of this month, when a new Constitution,
upon the new French plan, will he submitted for the accep-
tance of the people. In this attempt to revolutionize Italy,
he does not appear to be seconded-4y the inhabitants to an
extent that promises success at present.—The accounts from
the Rhine admit that numerous armies of the Allies arc ap-
proaching that quarter, and that an attack is shortly expected;
hut at the same time state that there own preparations every
where correspond with the exertions of the coining assailants.,
Bonaparte's departure from Paris has been again deferred.
It is now said he purposes visiting the whole line from
Huningen to Dunkirk. The Emperor of Austria is said to
have refused to sign the Manifesto against France ; and the
Russian army to have retrograded in consequence of the press-
ing entreaty of the Senate. But this desei yes no credit.
The French Funds have again fallen. The price last quoted
was 57.

Brussels and Frankfort Journals reached town on Tuesday
the former to the 30tb, the latter to the 26th ult.. They
contain numerous articles st,ting the march of reinforce-
ments, upon the largest scale, to the allied armies posted on
the frontiers of France. The first division of Austrian troops
was expected to reach the Rhine the 2d of May ; and this
division was to be immediately followed 70,000 men
under the command of Prince \Vrede. It is further said
that 80,000 Russians will be on the Rhine in about a fort-
night; that they are followed by another division of the same
strength, which is likely to reach by the latter Cod of the
present mouth ; and a third division of 50,000 men is to go
tin-0110r the Tyrol to, Italy. A force of I 00,000 Russians is
to form an army of reserve on the Oder.—lt is necessary to
'Amer we, that these statements of troops marchitfi, are seldom
correct in point of'numbers.

Bonaparte has segoestered the property of his old favourite
Betthier the comp..oiun of all his great campaigns.

The King of the Netherlands has punished a Proclama-
tion, fur the summary and exemplary punishment oP" all
attempts to disturb the public tranquillity, by, publishing
false rumours, and in any way exciting disorder and sedi-
tion. This measure may affui d some idea of the public opi-
nion in Belgium.

There is-a
private letter in circulation in the higher
circle, dated at Paris on Sunday, and from a person em-
ployed in the Thuil!erica, which states, that Buonaparte and
Carnot • had a desperate quarrel on Sunday morning, and
that the former suddenly discharged a loaded pistol at the
latter, but missed him. One of the valets of Buonaparte, who
had been with him in Egypt and Elba, was mortally wounded.
A letter received in this town yesterday from an Officer i.f
the i tth Dragoons, dated Reniex, near the French frontiers,
the 22d ult. states that two regiments of cavalry carne over
from the French army and joined the army of Louis XVIII.
in that neighbourhoool.—Birminghem Chronicle.
