MILAN, JAN. 30,--The King of Naples'on the
17th instant, issued the following Proclamation,:
" Having-for sundry weighty causes found our-
selies obliged to adopt measure's, for being ad-
mitted into the alliance of the States united against
France, we have in this instance been successful.
We have given up the three Islands situated op-
posite to Naples, and our whole fleet, hut for this
we are to have a sufficient compensation:. We are
going to take possession of the south of 'ltaly
as far as to the right bank of the Po. • , We 'shall
always remember our duty, and those pt,rsons in
office, who have always performed theirs, and
who have made no opposition to our • measures,
may assuredly reckon On our protection, and on
keeping their respective posts."
Immediately after the Proclamation having been
issued, the Neapolitan troops took possession of
Rome in the name of the Allies, and were there
received with every demonstration of joy. The
French General Miollis. retired with the Prefect
to the Castle of Angelo. These troops are like-
wise expected at Leghorn and Florence.
In the mean time the Viceroy had requested his
consort to repair to Genoa, but it is not believed
her Royal Highness will undertake this journey,
until the Neapolitans have passed thePo, and ap-
proached Parma. The fate of Lombardy and of
all Italy will now he the sooner decided, as we
cannot expect any assistance from France.
LIEGE, FEB. 10.—A corps 'commanded by Ge-
neral Prince Howinksy arrived here This day.
BRUSSELS, FEB. 14.—Te Deum was yesterday
chaunted in our cathedral church with all the
pomp which the motive could inspire: The crowd
of people was prodigious, and every one express-
ed the sentiments with which he was penetrated
towards the Allied PoWers for the unexpected
happiness which they have bestowed on us, in de-
livering us, as if by enchantment, from a GOvern-
merit which for fifteen years past has not ceased to
deprive our country of 'the flower of her youth,
which has exhausted her population, and conti-
nually tormented her with useless 'vexations and.
continual requisitions. • The Princes, the Etat
Major of the place, the Magistracy, and every
person of distinction in the city of BrnsSels as-
sisted at the •solernity. The garrison and other
troops, which were at the moment at Brussels,
appeared under arms, and male a most magnifi-
cent appearance. It. was not without astonish-
ment that we noticed among them some Tartars
'on horseback, denominated Bashkirs, who come
from three hundred leagues on the other side of
Moscow.—A Major Tuelisen, a person strongly
suspected of being a spy, was yesterday brought
before the Director of the Police. It is said that
a letter from the Commandant of the City of Ant-
werp was found in the collar of his dog, in which•
he requests speedy succours, without which,' he
asserts that it will be impossible' for hini to
preserve the place entrusted- to his ebatge any
longer.

gives the following list of General Offipers ih:that-

BRUSSELS; FEB. 9.—At length, after twenty
years of oppresSion and
,calamities; after having
bent our heads to slavery, under . the most harsh
and odious of yokes, we now see the dawn of hap-
piness and liberty. That ambitious nation, which
had spread itself through Europe like a-devouring
tarent, and s s;allowed up the blood and sub-
stance of every people, abandons our fertile coun-
tries. That ambitious mortal, who took away,
and gave sceptres at his pleasure ; who mocked at
religion, and sported wit ri the faith of treaties;
whofi illed the world with terror and dismay, sees
overthrown the monstrous Colossus of a power
founded on usurpation and iniquity. Honour to
the brave Muscovites, who from the banks of the
Don and the Wolgalcame to those of the Scheldt,
