were eagerly emploted in sending deputations, whilst
their friends and associates here. formed Committees
to support their demands. They wished that the
Constitution of the Cortes of Ibl2 should be adopted
without delay, and that it should be signed by the;
King in twenty-four hours. They were negociated
with on the morning of the 7th. and towards mid-.
day there appeared. It, rtscript of the King addressed
to the Duke of Calabria. His Majesty (alleging the
state of his health as no longer permitting him to
perform the labour required of him by the ditties of
Royalty) appointed his Royal Highness his Vicar-
General of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, with
all the rights attached Lo that title, which _they
dei,o-
minate here the Alter Ego.
" Soon after, there was published a Proclamation
'of the Prince Vicar-General, promising them the Spa-
nish Constitution as they had demanded it. But this
appeared not sufficient to the' Insurgents ; they de-
manded that the King, who promised it, should sign
it himself. Towards evening, there appeared a new
Proclamation, by which the King confirmed the pro-
mise of the Prince his son, and engaged, on his faith
as a King, to swear to the Constitution before the
Provisional Junta, which was to be formed, until he
could swear to it before a general Parliament to be
legally assembled. By the side of this Proclama-
tion, was affixed a Decree of the Prince Vicar-Gene-
tal, which promulgated the establishment of the Con-
stitution, with the exception of such modifications as
the National Represeptation should introduce into it.
"' The same evening some Regiments re-entered
Naples in very good order. All the inhabitants were
ready to maintain the public tranquillity, which was
only threatened i.y the effervescence of a crowd of
young per,.ons, who demanded arms, with great cries,
and which they were in part indulged with. The
lower orders took no part in the different movements:
they stewed themselves to be so passive, that it might
have been believed they were discontented with all
that had happened. .
" Yesterday, the 9th, General Pepi entered Naples
with a part of his army, which they call the Constitu-
tional troops. These forces, composed of troops of
the line, of militia, and f armed peasants, filed off
before the Prince Vicar-General, and all his family,
who were in the balcony of the Palace. The General
afterwards went up to pay his homage to the Prince,
who received hint very well, and lei him to the
King. For three days his Majesty has not quitted
his apartments ; lie suffers, they say, 'from severe
rheumatic pains.
" Since the 6th there has been seen to wave over
the Corps-de-Garde of the Civic -Guard a tri-coloured,
flag, red, black, and blue. The troops of the line still
preserved the red cockade; but the arrival of the,
Constitutional Army determined the adoption of the.
three colours. The Prince • himself assumed thens
yesterday, and has made all the military take them.
General Pepi has been appointed Commander• in-Chief
of the Neapolitan Army. He has announced that he
will only retain that situation as long as the public
safety may requite.
"The Provisional Junta, announced in the last
Proclamation of the King, was formed yesterday, at
least partially. It ought to be composed of fifteen
persons, and there are yet but five appointed. These
will present to the Vicar-General a list of 'twenty
other names, out of which he is to chuse ten to corn..
plete the Junta. He has also formed a Committee
of General Safety for the City of Naples. Never
theless, no one dreads any troubles, and, above all,
there appears not the possibility of danger to the
Royal Family,
" For several days there has not gone out of port
a single vessel, which causes it to be believed that a
general embargo has been laid on.
" The Ministry remains no longer composed as I
told you on the 6th. The Depai tment of the Inte-
rior has been given to Count Zurlo, who had it
unde.r Murat; and they have placed provisionally at
the head of the Finances M. Macedonia who, under
Murat, WAS Intendant of the Royal Household."

After this letter in the Monaca? follow the several
Proclamations alluded to in the course of it. The
first is that of the KING, promising to publish in eight
days the basis of a Constitution. The next is the De-
cree appointing the new Ministers, the names and
appointments of whom we mentioned in our last.—
Then follow two Acts of the KING, appointing the
Duke of CALABRIA Vicar-General of the Kingdom;
and lastly, a Proclamation from the VICAR-GENE-
RAL, establishing the Constitution on the basis of that
of the Spanish Cortes in 1b12; and a Decree for the
formation of a Provisional Junta.
The Saturday's Papers contain nothing in the way
of news from Naples, in addition to the preceding
particulars. The Constitutionmel gives a short bio.
graphical notice of the reigning family of Naples,_
with some particulars of which it may be gratifying
LO our Readers to be acquainted. . The King, FRB-
DINA ND, who has given up the reins of government
to his son, was brother of the late King of Spain,
CHARLES IV. Ho is no less than seventy-one years
of age, being the oldest reigning Sovereign in Eu-
rope, except the Pors and the King of SAXONY.
He espoused a sister of the late Queen of FRANCE,
who died in 1814. Of this marriage he had two
sons and two daughters. The e'dest son, the Here-
ditary Prince, who has been Lamed Lieutenant-Gene-
ral of the Kingdom, has been twice married, and has
a numerous family, one of-whom is the widowed
Duchess of BERRY. His present wife is sister to
FERDINAND of Spain. The second son, the Prince of]
SALERNO, is married to an Archduchess of AUSTRIA.)
The two daughters of the KING are married; the one
to the brother of the King of SARDINIA, and the
other to the Duke of ORLEANS.

Constitutionttd remarks, that this branch of
the BOURBON family was the only one which had not
as yet adopted the system of Representative Go-
vernment.

From Madrid, there are accounts in these-Papers
down to the 13th July. The meeting of the Cortes
having put the Constitutional system in full opera-
tion, the Supreme Provisional Junta has been dis-
solved. The Members have addressed, on the occa-
sion, a farewell Proclamation,to the People, full of
the proudest anticipations of the future. Madrid is
crowded with suaugers of all nations, particularly
English.
At Bilboa, the installation of the Cortes has been
celebrated by public fetes, in which high and tow
hive equally participated, The Es-Minister of Po-
