Yesterday and this morning we received the
Dario Papers of Thursday and Friday last. From
the former we give some extracts in another co-
lumn. Amongst them is a confirmation of the
statement we gave on Saturday respecting the
Austrian troops being at length about to evacuate
the kingdom of Naples. One Battalitim of them
arrived at Rome on the 12th ult, on their way to
Austria, and the whole, it is expected, will have
gnitted the Napolitan territory by the Ist of Oc-
tober next.--The following are extracts from the
Journals of

encamped in the open air, on Tire banks of the

benevolence of the inhabitmits of; his Capital was

Baron F,BRs's fate was undecided. There is great

As we contradicted, .frum authority, on Satur:

sisting among the Cabinets of Lmidon, Madrid,

without hope that The Chronicle would have ex•
pressed some regret at having been Wale the in•
strument of falsehood. The Chronicle, however,
contents itself this clay with saying, " we_shall
rejoice if it shall turn out to he as they. (The Sun

to expect some acknowledgment of en or, anti
contrition tar having been the vehicle of I:, on
the part of The Chronicle, and for its own credit
also, some apology ought to have been tna,!e to
its Readers. But the lattcr part of the sentence

for otherwise what can it mean by inentioni,)K

ter, to be upon their gnat ti, and not to presume
to adopt any measures, however wise, sound, and
matured, unless they obtain the previous assent
and sanction of The Morning Chronicle ! ! !

An idle paragraph, without the smallest loon.
dation, was inserted in an Evening Paper, and
copied into most of the others, stating the arrival
of Lord AMHERST at Spiihead ; and the 7'imes of
this morning is pleased to correct the-mistake by
saying that the salute was given on the arrival of
Lord MELVILLE. at Cowes, instead of Lord
ANHERST front China. It so happens that no
salute was fired, and that Lord MELVILLE left
Wimbledon only this morning.
We are happy to state that the Harvest has al-
