" The army of King MURAT, which on its march from.
Capita to Naples consisted of about 16,000 men, of whom
2,300 were cavalry, .and which by the Convention was to take
a position at Salerno, was all dissolved in a few days, ,so that
not a diVisiOn belonging to it is now to be found comple;fts
Thus ended, after • a six weeks' campaign, which will coact' •
immortal honour on the Imperial troops and their distinguish-
ed Commander, the Perfidious attempt to rerohitionise Italy,
with the flight of its author, the entire dissolution of his
army and of his kingdom. The revolutionary measures re-
coiled upon those who had employed them, and they were in+-
debteel tothe favour of the cohquerors alone for not falling a
sacrifice .to the popular rage which they had thewsels us
'excited." . „ :

PRINCE LEOPOLD'S PROcL,iNIATION

Infant of the Two

"14APOLITANS yOD sec me among you; it delights my
•
heart to find you, after a lapse of 1p years, such as you al-
ways were ; and I thank you for the consolation, I cannot too
highly value, of being able to report this to my Fattr6. arid
King. 'He returns among his Sons as into the bosom Of the
grr.:t family, which has constantly given the most-illustrious
Proofs .of loyalty and attachment. lint his Majesty now'
•
asks stronger proof., and requires them for your own
good.
.."Should any one seek to trouble the piiblic„ joy, ex-
citing disturbances, and imiault, tinder the shadow of the
sacred names of the country and of loyalty, woe he to
'him! My presence alone must afford the conviet7on that
his Majesty will use his supreme power severely to punish
Such a diSturber of
,public peace, as his Royal magnanimity
will knOw no bounds to thiise who shall contribute to make
the return of hiS Majesty the signal'of concord, of the re-
conciliatiou of all parties, of oblivion of all past.evils. There
are no guilty; all have but yielded to the imperious neces-
sity of the times ; and if the public interests have suffered, it
is because they were in the hands of the nation. These are
the maxims of the King mj, Father, and the principles
which have been proclaimed by the worthy and valiant Ge-
neral at the-bead of the Austrian army.
Beloved Neapolitans ! I cannot paint to you what trans.-
Ports, what testimonies of attachment, have accompanied me
froth the frostier of the kingdom to the midst of you.

" Having retired from my country at a tender age, I had
no right to so much ldve, and regard it only as an expression
of those sentiments Which the people of this 'kingdom have at
all times, and even in the most trying times, cherished and
testified towards my august Family. I acknowledge what du-
ties this love imposes upon me,-and I will do my utmost to
deserve it. Ilut do you, and that for the general good, in
perrect union with the paternal and beneficent dispositions of
his Majesty, let every private passion be bushed—let the
heart of the Neapolitans shew itself in its whole greatness, a
imid'el foi• otlibis. United by a common interest, agreeing in
principles, bound by reciprocal confidence, we shall at length,
after so many distresses, attain that peace and repose, of
which we are so greatly in need. -
" Let us, instructed by past dangers, emulate each other
in prudence and moderation thus our misfortunes will have
reached their end, !and while we surround the throne of our
lawful King anti father with our love and the most implicit
cunfidence,•we shall at length establish our political indepen-
dence upon foundations which nothing more will ever be.
