we yesterday son some mei:Milts that reached us
.0„,nt.946..ts Mary packet, from the Mediterranean.
By the sane conveyance Government received dis-
p,itcbes from Sr Joux STUART, with the official details
of the operations against the Neapolitan territory,
whirl have been so frecpiently mentirned in the
French papers. The dispatches state the capture of
the Islands of Ischia and Procida, and a large quan-
tity of c:mnon and ammunition, making 1500 pii-
soners. The British ships of war .had destroyed a
cpnsisting of forty gun.lsoats. Scylla was
abandoned by dist enemy, and the wain/nee and stores
became the prim of the English.

tlir; day continue our extraeti trrits the Dutch
and French Papers.. They speak for themselves.
Private letters of the Ist inst. fiom Holland give
the leading features of the Treaty
.now negociating
between France and Austeia. geikrirxr: to his oth'
tides adds, it. is said, that of Arcbitike of Atts:ria ;
add the Emperor FRANCIS is nOw to be King of Bo-
hemia and Hungary. Moravia It is probable will
be (=prized in the laue,r.eaveret4nty ; but the pre-
vious appropriation Whiat DOSTAIPAWAS bed made of
the Austrian division of Poland, Will, jt is believed,
be adhered to; an a persage *ill be required for the
?tench mops through the Austrian dominions.
Some of the inters state that the Treaty h already
con;utied-A-nor balk we any doubt that virtually it
is, though some forms may yet be wanting to its
complain

Yesterday we gave eitracts from Szville. Gazettes
to the 16:h ult. Br the same con, eyance that brought
these pipers, letters from •Alicant to the Gth, and from
tentill.f and Cadiz to the I/th, were also received.
The'letters from Alien* sinew the defeat of the
b mils under General 'awaits •by Sout:nwrlhare' not
etarly snlanguine as they have been; The merchants
fa eiet ouatter decline commercial intercourse with
this counter, until they shalt no longer be liable to
the ; vicissitudes to which they are now ex-
posed. nut the letters from Sesillo and Cadiz are as
'sanguine as ever. They had heard of the battle a
Talavera, but not of the euteequent retreat• of the
army. The letters from Cadiz state that some
rpular commritions had taken place at , geville, the
7ftple being enraged at the want oi- enetty, and ne-
zlect of the :trntica lately manifested hi the'Jonta.
Yesterday, the Spanish Arabisssatior reteived dis-
