A Decree, dated at the Thuilleries. April 30, con.
tains the regulations for assembling du. Electors of the
Colleges of Departments, who are to assemble c.n the
Clump de flai, to accept the new Constitution. The
preamble to these order's contains the following re.
'writable passages:
The civil war in the South bad no sooner terra.
nated, than we knew with certainty tat thehostile do s•
...s.
p,sitirins of the foreign power,. and from that time it
became necessary to foresee war, and to prepare for
it. Under these new circumstances, we had only et?
alternative of pioloneing the dictaiure isith wh;cl
we were invested by the confidence of the peoplt‘, (7
of abridging the forms which we bad proposed to,
ourselves to follow, with regard to the revision of if:::
Constitutional Act. The interest of France has pre.
scribed the adoption of the latter. We have, there.
fore,, presented for the acceptance of the people an
Act, which at once guarantees their liberties and rights,
and renders the Monarch secure against ail the dar•
gers of 'subversion."
Anther Decree of the same date contains. the Te-
gulations for the election of Prefects and Mayors,

or dilapidate the public revenues in their resnoctive

A Report has been made to the Emperor by ths
Minister of the Interior, M. CARNOT, on the subject
ot National jducation. It begins as follows :
" Stas—'!'here exists an example for the progtql of teas:r,

perhaps better civilised than most of the nations s.f what

THE EVENING STAR.

LONDON.

THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1815.
ASCZN 510N-I)AT...4l°llday at the Bank.

Last night we received the Paris Papers of Sunday
and Monday, but their contents: are not very inte-
resting. The non-official reports which they present
respecting the war in Italy come down to the 20th
ult.—eight days later than the previous accounts.—
They state that in another action the Austrians were
defeated with the loss of 1700 killed and wounded, :4.500
prisoners and all their artillery. This action is stated to
have happened at Cesenia, 18 miles south of Ravenna.
We are very incredulous respecting this affair ; for
enough is admitted in other accounts to shew that
the Neapolitans are retiring front the Austrians, if
not running away. A part of the former had reached
Perugia, about 60 miles south of Florence. Is this
a feint to draw the Austrians from their resources ?
or has MULIAT been disappointed in the hopes which
led him to advance to the Po, either as to the force
of the enemy, or as to the dispositions of the inhabi-
tants ? This upstart has, it is said, summoned by
Proclamation, Deputies from all the cities of Italy,
to meet in National Assembly at Rome on the.lBth
instant. This, it would appear, is one of BoNarattres
cards in the game of Constitution-making—a Champ.
de-Mai for the Italians

By a Decree of islaroLzon, the shew of the French
Champ de Mai, is to be abridged of some of its ce-
remonies. This he says he has found necessary to
decree as 44 Dictator," in consequence of the war
with which France is threatened, which renders a
waste of time improper.
The system of education so happily introduced
into this country by Mr. LANCASTER and Dr. Bill.,
is about to be reduced also to practice in FMK@ as a
national object.

These journals are cnxious to tell us of the good
disposition of the inhabitants of the South. On the ‘.4th
tilt. at Bourdeaur, all were expressing their attachment
to BONAPARIT- We know, however, by gentlemen who
left that city on the 26th, and landed at Plymouth
on Tuesday, that the great majority of the population
there and in the neighbourhood are decidedly Bour-
bonists, and would be glad to have a proper oppor-
tunity of exerting themselves against BONAPARTE,
being perfectly satisfied that no real national peace
or happiness can be enjoyed whiliany power remains
to the Usurper.

Private letters from Paris speak in mystetious
terms of some approaching political movement likely
to change the face of affairs in Europe. If we under.
stand them rightly, an explosion of some kind, by
one or other of the parties who have lately been
lending their aid to BONAPART4 and who suspect he
means to deceive them, is expected to be productive
of a change in the Government. BONAPA RTE, they
say, since his return, has displayed none of his for-
mer talent.

We learn by private letters from Calais that the
gent d'araes of that town have been suddenly ordered
to Paris. As, next to his own Guards, this is the
force on which in the absence of the army lie can
best depend, are we to ascribe this measure to the
movements hinted at in the private letters from
Paril ?—or is BONAPARTF., on pretence that the season
is improper. about to deter, or in other words, to
void the New Constitution ? If he durst, there can be
no doubt as to the willingness with which he would
destroy every one who l►ps dared to prescribe limits
to his power.

• Stocks were on the advance when our Paper was
yesterday put to Press; and the 3 per Cents. left off
at 581. Though this is a holiday at the Bank and
Block Exchange, an unusual number of Bankers, &c.
were on 'Change so early as ten o'clock. Much
private business was done. Consols opened at SSAI,
kll to 57i, and at twelve o'clock were 571—•5 per
Cent. Navy 86i to f -..—Has the advance in our funds
been produced by such private accounts from France
as we have been alluding to ?

We have received this morning Brussels Papers to
the lit of May, and Frankfort to the 27th of April.
The intelligence from Italy is most discouraging to
the prospects of MURAT : he has provoked a landing
at Naples in his rear, and is described as having been

'BRUSSELS, APRIL It •
The ISM *CORMS frog Italy state., that tiodoci
Croats haft hided at Ravenna the letters,
from Italy Nears the news that a Sicilian and Engs
lish army lass landed on the coasts of the kingdom of
Naples; and add, that the King himself is gone back
to Naples so prepare means to repel an attack upon
his capital. A corps of 5,000 Neapolitans has been
ordered ift all haste to Capua. The German Gazette
of the Lower Rhine gives the following article :-
44 All the letters from Frankfort and other places,
which have arrived here (at Ais.la-Chapelle) to-
day, the 26th of Aprl, agree, that after the first
battle the Neapolitans have again been completely
beaten, and pursued for five days." This news may
be considered as authentic.—Other accounts from

Italy state, that the Neapolitan army is flying in dis-
ditorder. It is generally believed that this war in
Italy will be wholly finished in a month.
By way of Holland we have accounts that a large
body of Spaniards, from Biscay, has landed near
Bayonne.
