MILAN, JANUARY 14.

Marfhal Maffena, after his arrival at Boltra from
the Anltrian States, immediately purfued his journey
for his new deflination. On the 17th intl. he joined,
on the frontiers of the Papal States, the army on its
march to Naples. Having arrived at the head quar-
ters at Spoletto the fame day, he innantly took the
command of it, and addreled the next day the fol-
lowing Proclamation to the troops.

It is not clear, however, that Marfhal Maffena,
who has foperfeded General Gouvion St. Cyr in the
command of the army proceeding againft Naples,
will long retain the command of it. We learn that
Prince Jofeph, brother of the Emperor and King
Napoleon. a arrived in Italy from France, to put
himfelf at the head of the expedition againft Naples.
It is afcertained, that the column which arrived on
the t9th init. at Rome, was quartered near the gate
Del Populo. It was, after foam days ref, to conti•
nue its march upon Naples. All the officers of this
corps paid a "Wit to Cardinal Fefch, the French Mi.
niller to the Pope. It appears, that the interpolition
of his Holinefs has been requefed by the Sicilian
Court, to divert the form ready to bark upon Naples.
Such is fuppofed to have been the objea of Cardinal
Ruffo's unproduaive journey to Rome. It is even
(aid, that the Pope refuted to receive him as Minitter
of the King of Naples. This Prelate afterwards fet
out for France, to make a perfonal application to the
Emperor, but it is very doubtful whether his journey
to Paris will turn to more account than that to Rome.
Betides, it is to be expelled, that the fate of Naples
will loon be decided by arms. The aaual fate of
affairs in that kingdom is very imperfealy known.—
For example, no authentic accounts have been re.
ceivcd refpeaing the movements of the foreign troops
which are affembled there. Reports continue of the
re-embarkation of the Ruffians.

VENICE, JANUARY 29.

When the French General Miollis took formal
poffeffion of this city. he read the following Procla-
mation :

k Vi!IMAMS,

" You now conititute a part of the Kingdom of Italy. The
(urethra of your bappinefs arc infeparable from the fate of Napo-
leon the Greet, and the intrepid and worthy character of his Im-
perial Highnefs Eugene Napoleon, of Franie, Viceroy of Italy, in
whole name I addrefs you. Concord, and thofe virtues by which
you are diftinguithed in HlRory, mull be the foundation of your
bappinefa, which is now irrevocably united with that of the
brave Italians."

A difcharge of artillery, and the acclamations of
" Long live the Emperor and King," followed the
reading of this Proclamation. The foldiers elevated
their hats upon the points of their bayonets. A
grand dinner was given to the Officers by General
Lanrifton, and afterwards a Ball, to which the Auf•
Irian General Bellegarde and his Officers were invited.
—A finer view than the Lagunes on this day can
fcarcely be conceived: the momcnt the Aultrian troops
defiled off, the French entered.

jAMVARY 22.
On Sunday and Monday lafl 3goo French troops
arrived here. They were received with univerfal de
monflrations of joy. General Mi.:414 has already
given permiiTinn for the celebration of all the fcenes
of the Carnival, as formerly difplayed in this Repult-
lic—a meafure which has rendered him beloved by
the Venetians. He has alfo called a meeting of the
principal merchants, and requefled their advice in
what manner to rellore our trade and the credit of
the Bank, and alfo on the fubjeet of an improved
coinage. 'To their communications, willies, and
ideas he paid great attention, difplayed great jildg-
ment, and removed all their difficulties.
We expect to fee our Vice King and Qseen here
immediately ; feveral extenfive preparations for the
feflivities on the arrival of this happy pair have al.
ready commenced. Our Carnival v. in be very
brilliant.
