number of Licenced Preachers, and Dissenting Meet-
ing-houses, in England and Wales, &c. This pro-
duction, he had since learned, did not lie within the
province of ,the Home Secretary's department. His
I...orasliP then. pupped a motion, 'which he thOught
would have, the desired effect, It purported as fol-
lows;. That the Clerk of the House do issue: copies

On the,„question for the third reading of the Irish

able doubts as to the form of the necessarroaths to
be inked by Catholics in 'lreland, with reference to
the Act of *SW of the King. He thought it pre-
ferable to let the measure lie over till the next Session,
at an early period of which an Act could be framed
'Which would not be liable to such a material &lee-
, tion. therefpre moved, " That the Bill be read
a third time this day three months." -
The Earl of HARDWICKE did not oppose the
proposition chiefly on the understanding that the Noble
and Learned Lord would coineforward at an early
period next Session with the legislative provision al-
!luded to. ,
The nestiort *as put, and Lord Redesdale's mo-.
tion was agreed" to, which loses the Bill forlhepre-

VIENNA, MAY 24. •

"'-Tate alzetteof this day contains the following ar-
" Four times have the French entered Austria,
•.anrfriiice -the capital of the Monarchy. But how
different are the circumstances now from the year
18{35 ! Then the French army found the inhabitants
Of Vienna bowed down by calamities they had not
snerited,.but enabled by that masculine resignation
with renders the unhappy even respectable. • With
: a noble pride, they-avoided all proCeedings which be-
come a fanatic populace rather than, a civilized go-
vernment. Tb's conduct secured to the people of
Vienna the esteem of the conqueror.; among the mo-i
numents of which esteem is the city arsenal, Which he'
refused to touch. This respect was a victory gained,
by the vanquished over jhe Invincible. Paris and,
Berlin resounded with, the praises which the. French.
warriors gave the Austrian character.
a' How are the times changed ? Terrorism, which,
. banished. from the 'sheres of the Seine, .had latelf
. shaken her bloody torch over Madrid and -Lisbon,
whenee she had been driven by the French eagles,
appeared to seek an asylum in the Austrian Cabinet
Byforce and-artifice, the peasant was torn ,from his
cottage, the .artisan limn his workshop, the father
from- his afflicted children. .All the bonds of society
were broken, all the principles of public law abjured.
Calumnious libels were made ascot to mislead the
Austrians.; insurrectional proclamations, and the
cre.rril.ge of a share in;the booty, Were to form a palmyin foreign countries. Imperial Princes did not blitsh
to sign ernaimations preaching of liberty, equality,
and of revelntioniiing States I ,ivpr4s, on account of
which An Stria had, during:many years, 'made war on
. France, and sent so many victims to Munkatch, whose
manes stid cry for vengeance. A troop of enraged
individuals, a few days since, traversed the streets of
Vienna, and compelled by blows the peaceful citizens
to arm themselves with a few rusty muskets, and
place themselves on the ramparts. The banks of the
Ihinv be were nearly beholding a government of sans -
culotres pr esided by a Prince, who exposed Vienna to a
siege, without even giving notice to the citizens to
„provide water to extinguish the flames. It is thus
tbat•Nt adesperate state we think all means lawful.
Au.strianaot conceal this ; she bears a cruel disease
..v-.•'ttlin.her—Lier paper money. This evil has reach-
ed its last crisis. The convulsions of the Cabinet
k-ove. it its actions were those -of a man in a
eiff.lso the only physician, the onl; saviour, is

tort.bcpe.that he does n t confound the spirit party
wiih km:spirit:of the people ; that he has brought
with him his ancient affection for the people' of Vi-
_nn,.4,a4,llk.al*sees in, thernihe loyal Tura tit 1805.

' PARTS, JUNE £
M. Denon, Director-General of the French Mu-
seums, went through Stntgard on the 26th ultimo, on
his way to Vienna.. - •
The following is the Poselamation dispersed by the
Archduke John, on his-entrance into Italy
" ITALTANS I—Give ear to the voice of truth and
roason. These tell you that you are the slaves of
France ; that you for her waste your gold and your
blood
dream, a vain name. The conscription, the burthens,
the oppressions of every kind, the nothingness of your
political existence ; these alone are realities.
" Reason also tells you, that its such a state of
degradation, you can neither be esteemed, remain at
peace, nor be Italians. Do you wish to be once more
Italians ? Unite then, your hearts, and your power
to the generous arms of the Emperor Francis. At
this moment he causes a powerful body to descend
into Italy. He sends them, not to gratify an idle
thirst of conquest, but to defend himself, and Secure
the independence of all the nations of Europe, which
are threatened by a succession of attacks that allow
no doubt of the inevitable slavery prepared for them.
" If Goo protect the virtuous exertions of the Em-
peror Francis, and his mighty allies, Italy shall be
again happy, and once more respected in Europe.—
The head of the Church will possess again his free-
dom and his dominions; and a Constitution, founded
on nature and true policy, shall bless the Italian soil,
and render it impenetrable to any foreign power.
" It is Francis who promises you so happy and
glorious an existence. Europe knows it : the word
of this Prince is sacred—is as immutable as pure ;
Hiavat: speaks through his lips. Awake then, Ita-
lians Rouse yourselves. Of Whatever party you
hale been or now are, fear nothing, fot you are Ita-
lians. We come not to investigate--to punish ; we
coine to aid—to deliver you. Will you remain in the
state of confusion in which you are sunken ? Will
you behave otherwise than the Spaniards, that people
ef heroes, whose words and actions are in harmony.
" Do you love less than they, your holy religion, i
your honour, and the name of your nation ? Do mt.!
abhor less than they, base servitude, because you
were seduced into its snares by fraudulent speeches.;
thOugh the treatment you have experienced has been
most opposite to those speeches. Italians I trutivand'
reason say to you, that so favourable an occasion
never offered itself of throwing off the yoke cast upon
Italy. They tell you, that if you do not listen to
them, you incur the danger arising from a victorious
army, which subdues without consideration, a people
without a name and without rights; that, on the
contrary, if you cling to your deliverers, and con.
quer with them, Italy will reassume its station among
the great nations of the earth, and may become again
what it once was, tbe first.
a Italians I—a better fate is in your bands ; in
hands which brought the torch of illumination into
every quarter of the globe, and restored to Europe,
when sunk in barbarity, the sciences, arts, and morals.
" Ye Milanese, Tuscans,-Venetians, Piedmontese,
be mindful of the period of your ancient being. The
days of peace and prosperity may return to you
fairer than ever, if your conduct render you worthy
the blessed change.
" Italians '!—Have but the will, and you will be
Italians again, as glorious as your ancestors, as happy
and contr,e_d_as you ever were in the fairest epoch
of your mmou. (Signed)
Joint .Archdulte•Of Austria."
