their advance to Frescati, announcing the occupation

are said to have been effected

In judging of the effect of this advance of the
enemy, the great qupstion seems to be, whether the
Neapolitan General has evacuated so many points 1
of easy defence from a distrust of his troops, and
consciousness of his weakness, or from a design to
allow the Austrians to advance, and harass them
by mountain warfare on their left Sank and rear, as
they approach the Capital? If the former be the fact,
their cause is desperate. But upon the latter suppo-
sition, the fortune of the campaign has yet given no
serious advantage on either side.
The very occupation of Naples, of the Terra di
Lavoro, and the principality of Salerno, would be
ineffectual, whilst a part of the two Abruzzi, Ultra
and Citra, and the two Calabrias were still occupied
by the Neapolitan troops. If General FatstosT is
not in dread of leaving the Neapolitans on his left,
and if he believes the corps of WALMODEN, arc.
which have been engaged on the different points of
'Civita Ducale, Leenessa, ikc. to be sufficient to drive
the Neapolitans before them by sheer force and terror,
as described in the accounts, why does he not march
by the direct road of Terracina upon Naples, and
join the other corps on their advance from the upper
frontier ?

The bulletin of the 12th of March, which we gave
yesterday, left the divisions of WA LMODEN and Sum-
mutant both advancing towards Sulmona, a prin-
cipal town of Abruzzo Citra, where, if still unop-
posed, they will probably unite. Sulmona is seventy
miles within the frontier.

That unhappy old man, the Kiwo of NAPLES, ar-
rived, as a prisoner at large, at Florence, on the 9th,
in the hope, as it would seem, of returning, on the back
of the Austrians, to the secure possession of that
despotism, which he so lately, before GOD and the
world, renounced by the most solemn vows.' His
ex-Majesty was *immediately .waited upon by some
Neapolitan refugees, who doubtless find an affectation
of loyalty a convenient mad; for lack of valour. Why
don't they join the invaders? A new Proclamation,
in the name of the exiled King, has it seems found
its way to Naples, and, according to the Austrian
accounts, has " produced a lively impresion." What
is exactly meant by this phrase we are not told, and
must therefore endeavour to collect the meaning from
the most recent facts which we see recorded as having
occurred at Naples.
A letter in the Journal des Debate (no friend to the
Neapolitans), dated the Bth of March, say s—" If hos-
tilities are not commenced, they will commence soon.
All are regimented in the National Guard, as in 1815.
Every one guards his street. The whole garrison of
Naples has set out ; the only regular troops which
remain are thirty horsemen, and sixty infantry. The
march of Volunteers from the Calabrias still continues.
The Calabrian Volunteers, to be the better distin-
guished, have adopted a red scutcheon, with a death's
head ; they are all aimed with carbines, at their own
expense.' Are these proofs of what is called " the
lively impression" produced by the KING'S letter?
It is added, in the same private letter from which
we have just quoted, that the departure of the
PRINCE REGENT for the Army had been fixed for
the 9th of March, but deferred on account of " the
arrival of some dispatches which had given occasion
to the secret convocation of the Parliamentary Com-
mission of War." This circumstance seems to coun-
tenance the report to which we alluded yesterday, of
sonic new negotiation being on foot.

" Head-Quarters of Antrodoco, March 10, 1121.

" Yesterday, the 9th instant, the division of Walmoden
marched against Ant(odoco. Two columns detached from Civita
Ducale crossed the mountains to attack the enemy's rear in the
passes of Borghetto and Antrodoco. •
" This movement was executed without opposition. The
enemy, seeing that the whole Austrian division was operating
the same movement, abandoned the passes of Borghetto, after a
feeble resistance. Their retreat was so precipitate and general,
that only few prisoners were taken.

0 The heights of Antrodoco were covered with Masseurs
(ripe • corps), and some discharges of Artillery skewed that the
enemy *ere numerous. Major d'Aspre, commanding the left
cblumn, by a rapid march, attacked the formidable pau of An-
trodoco in the rear, drove the enemy from the position, and
wok three pieces of artillery. He is now pursuing them.
" Four hundred deserters came over to us last night.
• The enemy's Corps had orders to retreat upon Aquila, and
there reunite; but they dispersed themselves in the mountains
In this division of the enentriarmy was the Corps of the Vo-
lunteers of Avellino, who were the promoters of the revolt in
the month of July; but we were not able to get eight of them.
O The Port de la Madam della Grotto, defended by General
Velatto, was occupied last night by the Austrian attienzed guard.
" The army found provisions in great abundance ha the
Abruzais."

" General Stutterheim has taken possession of the fort of
Colla and of the pass of Cocoa dl Cervo."
