The official Austrian Bulletins given in another
column from the Vienna Gazelle, agree in the general
detail with the accounts we have already laid before
our Readers, respecting the hostilities which have
been commenced in Italy by MURAT.

Respecting Waal. there have been, many reports
and different opinions. Fiom the dispuision brought
on last night in the House of Commons, by Mr.
Hoareza's motion for papers respecting the negocia-
dons and correspondence that had taken place with
MURAT, the public will be able to fonts a pretty cor-
rect opinion of the degree of confidence whicii ought
or ought not to be placid In the integrity of the King.
of NAPLES. Lord CASTLEREAGH read copies and ex.
tracts of many curious documents respecting the per-
fidious conduct of MunaT, while professing attach-
ment to the cause of the Allies, and promising co-
operation to hurl BONAPARTE from his throne. From
all the documents but one inference could be drawn:
that MURAT was acting with equal perfidy to the Al-
lies and to BONAPARTE. While treating with the
Allies, he was also in treaty with NAPOLEON for the
sovereignty of all Italy south of the Po. The silence
Of BONAPARTE produced his union with Austria ; but
even after this he did every thing in his power to
thwart the objects of the Allies.
In one instance when a Ft Ench corps was shut up in
Reggio he so disposed of his own force as to give
them an opportunity of escaping ! Our Readers,
to form a correct opinion on the curious facts disclosed
by these documents, should read the able speech of
Lord CASTLEREAGH with great attention. There is
only one point more which we can notice in tfiii
place :—the claim of 1‘1:: It AT, by his Minister
At the Congress, not only to be considered as
King of Sicily, but of the Two Sicili:s -This
barefaced thief not only desires to have his right to
the kingdom of Sicily, which circumstances had put
into his hands, confirmed by the Congress, but would
have bad the Allies to join in a tubbery to dispossess
the rightful Monarch of those parts of his tetritories
whirl still remained under his dominion !

Yesterday her MAJESTY, accompanied by Paiaa-
cesses ELIZABCTiI and NIAIIY, arrived at the Queen'ss,
Palace from Windsot. In the course 01 tbe day they'
ssete visited by the Duke of YOltK, the Duchess of
ORLEANS, and a number of Nubility. In the course
.of the evening the ?MN/ A; ItEIiENT dined with the
goyal Party, and at nine o'clock her MAJESTY had a
eel .ct party to tea, etc.
It is said that the Ratification of the Treaties of
Alliance and Subsidy is arrived, and a Message may
be speedily expected Announcing the fact.
It appears from the Vienna Papers to the 5'.3J, that
the Monarchs then remained in that capital.
A Declaration of War against Murat has, it is
said, been determiaed upon by our Government, and
will be speedily issued.
The annual Westminster School Election Dinner
was yesterday well attended, and the usual quantity
of Latin Epigrams were given as a dessert after
dinner. The Rev. P. W. Biamezao was Steward.
Alter the dinner the venerable and respected Dean,
Dr. VINCENT, made his appearance, and was wel-
comed with the plaudits he so well merited.
THEATIM—After the representation of
1 Riti d'Efeto last night, the beautiful now Anacreon-
tic Ballet of Oar: ct L' Amour was again presented to
the audience, who followed the action of the piece
with increased delight, and rapturously applauded
the performers through all their varied and grace-
ful exertions. The union of so many agreeable
qualities which characterise this Ballet, gives ample
assurance of its continuing a medium of great at-
traction to the House. The company were elegant
• and numerous. _ _

DRURY-LANE.—Mr. BARTI.F.Y male his first ap-
pearance last night, iu the part of Jobrhornbary,in the
comedy of John Bull. The picture of the strung feel-
ing, blunt sincerity, and fiery temper of the aftcted
father and honest tradesman, was highly natural
and effective, and in his scene with the proud and
worldly Baronet, every speech was delivered with
so much point end power., as to produce several
rounds of applause. .formsvowe displayed his usual
excellence in Dennis Bredlgruddery, and all the other
parts were respectably sustained.
New POST. OFrice.—The Committee appointed to
examine the intended improvements in the Post-nflice
have presented their Report, which has been printed.
They approve the removal of the Post-office to St.
Martin's-le-Grand, at the same time recommending
a subsidiary office in Lombard-street or its vicinity,
for the convenience of the foreign merchants. The
expense of the new building is estimated at £50,000;
the value of the ground, &c. to be purchased at
£205,162. The Report concludes as follfwvs
6' Witis regard to the principal front of public hu.idings, it
may be observed, that whenever the proportions are ill them-
wives ample, the component parts kept upon a large scale, and the
general divisions symmetrically arranged so as to lorm one uni orni
design, together with a due attention to the breadth of light and
shadow to be produced by the whole, any edifice of cot:utterable
event can hardly he destitute ot character and dignity; but that or.
tumentat decorations, introductd for the mere purpose of em-
bellishment, and unconnected w nth tar Hit y, while they prodigiously
enhance the cost, rarely produce an effect, in point of elegance
or grandeur, which compensate for it.
An Office for the receiving anti delivery of Letters, which
should be concealed behind a front fit for a palace, and flanked
by triumphal arches, would present an incongruity no less offen-
sive to geoid taste, that* 111CvlIsialeit with rational economy."
