Tile English who are at Vienna, and of whom a great
number have been at the Island of Elba, are generally,
in society, very favourable to the Emperor. They
exclaim with indignation against the pretensions of

case. ',I :ay, tin" Stuarts arc our legitimate masters.

niore t...in 100,000 men, and '20,000 horses. They
d„ no: dispute the attachment of the old soldiers
who I:aic seen hint on the field of battle ; but they
educe his forces by the deduction of all that be might
nave to leave in stron, . places, on the Alps, on the

This calculation sustains their courage ; and the
;,,,pc of being 6 to 1 makes the only prospect of suc-

oi:twelves with so much imprudence.
In the societies of Vienna I have heard it said, by

upensive, would it not be more natural to propose to
Napolew to ratify the Treaty of Paris ? It he does
not rainy it, the war at least will have an object : but
he is w:lF.eg to ratify it, the war has none."
We are assured, at Vienna, that the Archduke
Charles has rzfused to t.ike a command : it is coli-
c', med that he said—" 'rile danger is not on the side
of Parse, bat on the side of St. Petersburgh. By

all France : the simplest observations prove it. How
could it be possible that a man against whom, for a
year, so many injurious things have been spread,
whom attempts have been made to depreciate in so
many manners, could arrive alone and take possession
of France, if he had not the whole nation for him

Oa the 4th of April, in spite of vihat General Vin-

Since our last another Mail has arrived from Flan-
tic: s, also the Paris Papors of Wednesday and Thurs.-
Both of them prestrit a Prbclamation, pub-
libed at Milan on the sth, by the Austrian General
11'1 LEG.AnDF, announcing the commencementof hosti-
litie.: on the part of the KING OF Nat Les without any
previous declaration of war.' In the articles brought
by the above Mail, some details are given respecting
the military moVements which have taken plaCe in
't !y, and of which we had before some intimation
through the French Papers. 'fire Austrian accounts
admit that Marshal BiAstAr fell back'. on the ap-
;;.)ach cf the Neapolitan army, and finally retreated
to Corpi on the sth. Some skirmishing took place,
:Ind the Austrians, it is stated, made 20t.1 prisoners.—

an article from Milan of the 9th :aft, that besides

these affairs are of importance only in so far as they
endanger the entire separation of the Neapolitan te-

Cair employment in furtherance of the Schemes of
BONAPAitm. We must remark, however, that.it the
date of these affairs, the result of the Negotiations
NviliCh had been carrying on at Vienna; and which,
according to the last accounts froth Vienna—Pee
