THE LATE KING.

In a Letter dated the 18th February, 1721,
from his late MAJESTY to Mr. PITT, he said
Mr. Pitt may depend upon my being heartily
" ready to adopt vigorous measures, as I think
" the struggle. is really no less- than my being,
" called upon to stand forth in the defence or.
"'the Constitution, against a MOST DESPERATE
" lAcTios."—(Dr. Towline's. Lifc.qf Mr. Pitt.)
Into.—The KING, in writing to-Mr. PlT'r, on
the 22d of the same month, and referring to the
answer which he was to give to the addreis of.the
House of Commons, voted on the .20th, said—
" I trust that while the answer is drawn up with
" civility, it will be a clear support of my own
" rights, which the addresses from all parts of
" the Kingdom show me the people feel essential
" to their liberties." -

Inin.—Upon another occasion, his MAJESTY
wrote to Mr. PITT—" I cannot conclude without
" expressing my fullest approbation of the con-
"duct of Mr. Pitt, on Monday; in particular his
‘C employing a razor against his 'antagonists, and
" never condescending to run into that rudeness
which, though common in that lionse, certainly
" never becomes a gentleman ; if he proceeds in
" this -mode of oratory, he will bring debates
" into a shape more creditable, and correct-that,
as well as I trust many other evils,
-:which time
4‘ and temper can only; etrect.'? -
lain.—Mr.-Fox and his friends, during,, this
contest, carried 14 motions against Mr. PITT,
upon which the House divided ;- besides a great
many other motions, upon which there was no
division. The dates of these diiisions, and the
Members which voted, were as follow

Several of these debates were upon nearly the
,same question, and in giving an account of them,
the same opinions and arguments may in some
instances have been repeated ; but it was impos-
sible, without noticing every motion and debate,
to convey an adequate idea of the nature of the
contest, or of the difficulties which Mr. PITT had
to encounter.—For Mr. Fox, it is seen, prevailed,
"as far as a majority -was concerned, in every motion
which he made in the House of Commons, for
two successive months; but the most hostile reso-
lutions against Alinisters, and the mostimportunate
addresses to the Throne, equally failed or pro.-
&Icing their desired effect. Mr, PITT perse-
vered boldly, avowing his determination not to
resign ; and his MAJ ESTY was no less firm in re-
fusing to- dismiss him. In the mean time
PEOPLE gave the most unequivocal proofs of their
approbation of Mr.r PITT'S 'conduct, and •• a 6..
strongly condemned that of his opponents.
LTC OPINION mus:g EVEIi AFFECT THE VOTES • of
the HopsE or COMIONS." Mr. Fox's majorities'
gradually decreased, and from the plain intima-
tions he received' from many of his supporters,
and his loss of the confidence of the country, be
felt himself under the 'necessity of giving up the
contest and uf submitting to the rising fame and
wonderful talents of Mr. P,/TT.

Paris Paris of Thursday and Friday arrived
this morning. They furnish its kith accounts of
fresh measures of severity resorted io in, Naples,
against those .persons who have been most active
-during the late Revolution. " The'. x:General
ROSSAIIOLL having been notoriOtl'sly. guilty of
-!'
high treason, in the operations condtt,cted,by him
at Messina," says a notification posted up by the
Police Of Naples, " notice is hereby given, that
svherever he shill be Inlet With in the dominions
of his Majesty, he shall be put to death." A re-
ward :of WOO ducats has been offered for the
arrest of the following distinguished .Members of
the late Parliament :—LAURENCIO DE CONCI- I
MrcnAELE Montt.t.r, GIUSEPPE SiLvATr,
LUIGI •IVIENECIIINI, and GIUSEPPE CAPETCCIA.
A Decree has also been issued by the Provisional
Government in the name orate KING, appoint-
ing a Court-martial with enormous pOwers.
It is authorized to condemn to-death " as an as
sassin," any individual who shall be seized with
armss and to cause the sentence to be executed
without delay. Persons in whose houses prohi-
bited erns are found without a licence, are to
~be imprisoned and fined. The same Court is
charged with the suppression or secret associa-
tions, Particularly of the Carbonari. Per-
sons who should becOme Carbonari, after the
.publication of this decree, or having been
Carbonari before should subsequently enter any
of their Lodges, or those of any other secret
Society, are also t6;pe punished with death, .ass
guilty of high treason, whilst those who he'ar of I
such a meeting, without, immediately denouncing
it to the Police, are liable to imprisonment for
r any term between three andlen years. A Pro-
Visionaf Government, under the Presidency of the
Archbishop of PALERMO, has been established in
that city, to re-estalis'a order in Sicily.—
Subsetjueut accounts state, that this object has
been accomplished at Messina,' and that General
Itossaroll had embarked for Spain, leaving his
troops, who have sent their submission to Naples,
The intelligence from Madrid states, that the
King had determined to expel the Bishop of
TARRAGONA, Grand Inquisitor of Spain, and to
seize upon all his temporal property. An article
from Paris -mentions the arrival- of the Bishop
at Bayonne. The new law for punishing
offences against the State has been adopted
by the 0008. All persons charged with such
offences, including-even an attempt, to incite or
seduce, directly or indirectly, a soldier to desert,
if arrested by; military authority, are to be tried
by a Military Commission ; but if the arrest
'.takes place by. the Ciwil, .Authority, then they
will be tried by the Ordinary Tribunals. It is
added this law is only temporary, and' adapted
to the Present crisis. The celebrated Guerilla
•
-ChieftainiLoxGA and P.sTott have been arrested,
but the 'cause is not known.

An article from Vienna, of the 16th, mentions
.the passage of considerable bodies of-reeruits in
the nei4hbourhoodof that city, from distant pro-
vinces of the Empire. The Rus:-.ian troops- are
in march. ' Forty thousand infantry are travers-
ing Huvary. This army is said to amount to
130,000 men, of which 18,000 are cavalry, and
will arrive in Caruiola in the middle of June. They
will proceed to the frontiers of Italy in two co.
lumns, one of which will defile near Vienna, and the
other pass by Pest. Letters from Petersburg'',
received at Frankfort, announce, in the most
positive manner, that the Imperial Russian
Guards have received orders to march to the
frontiers; and by an Augsburg artide it appears
that orders have been transmitted from Laybach,
to hasten the march of the Russian army, which
is to occupy, conjointly with the .Austrian army,
the whOle of Italy, from the Alps to the Strait
of Messina. This occupation, it is affirmed, will
take place in consequence of a new Convention
concluded at' Lavbach.

Accordin,r toaccouuts from Jassy dated March

31, great consternation prevails there, since it
%l as know, n that the Emperor of Russt.s. had ex-
pressed dissatisfaction on being informed of the
insurrection in Moldavia and Wallachia, and had
not only declared that he would not assist its
promoters, but bad even in the: most unequivocal
manner intimated 11;s displeasure. The alarm
has been further increased by the Russian Con-
s ul notifying, that he had received or-
ders to leave Jassy immediately.

Extract of a Letter from the 'Agent to Lloyd's, 'att
tinople, 3 t d March 24.
",Very active exertions are making to prepare
the TunKtsit 'FiEiT for sea.'?

We are not to be classed among- those who
exult in the foreign subjugation which has fallen
upon Naples, and we look with horror on the
vindictive spirit which pursues. those who endea-
voured to procure a Representative Government
to their country. A Representative Government
united with the 'Monarchical principle, under due
regulations, is the best system of National Polay
that ever was, devised ; and, however the AM-.
,
trial', or any. Other Despotic Obtruder, may over-
power the pdpular feeling in Naples, or in any
other country, there is too much political know-
' ledge among mankind for them to be held
for. over in bondage. The people in several
countries have been promised a Representa-,
tive Government, and the , Potentates, after
the warnings which they have received, will
have only to blame themselves if they delay the
performance of their promises till the general
feelings of mankind are roused, which will not be
easily subdued till they hate fixed those political
rights which all people should possess, upon the
secure basis of a free Constitution.
