MILAN, APRIL 15.

it appeared at first that the army of the King of
Naples was marching towards the Taro, and that
it threatened Placentia. The Austrians had there
thrown up some works and collected troops.' It is
non• certain that the Neapolitan army was concen-
trating on the lower Po. There have been several
serious rencontres, which have ended in the Austrian-
retreating behind the Po, and the Neapolitans ad•
vanc►ng to the right Bank. The Neapolitan arm)
h.►s not its heavy artillery with it, the grand park
being far removed from its line of operations. It has

assumed the name of the 'ltalian Army. The advance:l
guard is commanded by General Sacchini of Cremona.
(EXTRACT FROM A PRIVATE LETTER.)

YRUN, APRIL. i 5.

- .
No couriers are permitted to enter Spin from
France. and even all epistolary correspondence is
stopped here. Of course we have nothing but vague
rumours, but it is generallY understood that an army
is proceeding towards France as list as their natural
habits of indolence will permit the troops and their
leaders to move.

At one o'clock this morning we received Brussels
and Frankfort, and Vienna Papers. The Litter give
an official account of the affair between Baron F;LE-
MONT and WWI?, at the tete-de-pont of Ochn-Belln,
agreeing exactly with what has already been pub-
lished. General BOURNONVILLZ has joined the Royal
standard, and is arrived at Ghent.

An article from Vienna throws some light upon the
late movements in Italy. As soon as the intended
hostilities of 'MURAT were known at Vienna, orders
were sent to the different Austrian Commanders to
1.11 back on the main army, and till thisgrand move-
ment be effected there will be no serious affair on the
part of the Austrians -hence the apparent tempo-
' nary successes of MURAT ; but wherever he has
advanced he has been disappointed, for not a single
Commune has declared for him.
On the Bth instant Lord BENTINCK, who com-
mands the British troops in Genoa and Sicily. passed
through Milan to the headquarters of Baron Fag
MONT, to concert their combined military movements.
Count NmPatta reached the Austrian army on die
Po upon the 6th. The Russian General Count Tutu,,
who has been some time at Naples, is arrived at
Milan. It is supposed he will remain at the Austrian
head-quarters in Italy.

It is asserted in some of the best informed circles,
that Lord Wira.inurros was in London late on Wed-
►nesday night, and had a conference with some of the
Cabinet Ministers. His whole stay is said to have
been not more than four hours, nor had he time even
to see his own family. His Lordship travelled as a
private Gentleman, and therefore was not known on
the road. .

Mr. Wurranzan's motion for an Address to the
PurNee REGENT, praying him to prevent this country
engaging in war, on the ground of the Executive
Power of France being vested in the hands of BONA-
?man, was negatived last night, by a majority of
273 to 72. In the course 01. the debate a singular
proof of the perfidy of NAPOLEON, proved by an ex-
isting voucher, was stated by Lord CASTLEREAGH. •••-
FCLAHSOiS document, a letter of the then of
War to CAULINCOURT, the French Negociator at
Chatillon last year, it appears that the latter was in-
structed to conclude peace on any terms, but to talc:
care that the Treaty might be so worded, that evm
alter being ratified, the Emperor might have power
left to delay or avoid executing dim principal puilits,
viz. the evacuation of Antwerp, Mentz, and Alex-
andria, which he called the three great keys of
France. Keys they are, to be sure, but not of
France, By holding them, he meant to reserve a
power to invade England from Antwerp, Italy,
through Alexandria, and Germany, through Mentz.
Can we think this fellow has since then changed his
character

Yesterday Viscount CASTLERFAGII had a long au.
thence of the PRINCE REGENT.

Yesterday, soon after two o'clock, the Princess
CHARLOTTE of WALES took an airing in an open ba.
rouche and four, in the King's-road, by Kensington,
Hyde Park, &c. Her Royal Highness was aattided
by the Countess of ficitEsTutt, Mibs Cons, General
GARTH, and three out-riders.

Thursday, the Lords of the Council met at the
Council Office, Whitehall, to hear and determine prize
appeals. There were present the Master of the Rolls,
Str Wtl. Scan., and Sir JOHN NICHOLL.
A General Officer arrived yesterday morning with
dispatches to Government from Louis XVIII. ; a
Government packet sailed with him on purpose, from
Ostend. Nothing has transpired as to the nature if
the dispatches of which he is the bearer; but. it is
surmised that they contain the King's accession to the 1
treaty of the 25th of March.
Among the passengers who arrived at Brighton on
Tuesday last, from Dieppe!, was M. VAR:BRAY.
Chancellor to the nerich King. The'Chaneellvr has
since arrived in London. His ulterior destination is
Gheirt, where the Court of his Royal Master is at
preient held.
Tuesday, Colonel WARDLE and family embarked
at Dover in a French vessel tor Calais.

COVENT-GARDEN THILATEL—NIILTONPE justly ce-
lebrated Masque of Comm WAS revived at this The.
litre last night, with all due splendour and effect.—
The intrinsic meth of this piece, and the reverence
in which its immortal author is so naturally held,
must ever render it 'a distinguished favourite of a
British audience. It has been got up in A very Flt-
perior style. The scenery is uncommonly be,stan ul,
picturesque, and effective. The wood and 61/Mc:a,
the forest, the Labyrinths, the bower of Coiner and
Sabeina't sub-marine palace, are particularly excel-
lent, atid reflect the highest credit on the liberality ot
the Managers, and the taste of the Artists. The per-
formance is also entitled to much praise.
Tuesday last the DEFENCE, a new 7.11. gun ship,
was launched from Cliathtni Duck-yard ;—a very
great number of spectators were assembled on the oc-
casion ; Lord CLINTON and Commissioner BOYDE
VelIC among the number. The liuucls could not be
wore beautiful than it was—every body was highly
{ratified. .
Wednesday, the Howe was put out of Duck, at
Chatham; and on Thursday, the DEFENCE was taken
into the same tied, to be cOppered.
