NEAPOLITAN PAPERS.

The Giornale Constitution:4le of Feb.ls, contains a
Report, addressed to the Pttt sce REGENT by the Duke
of GALL°, on his mission to Laybach. Tills Report
describes the manner in which the Duke was_inter-
valued on his journey ; directed to geoto Gorice,and,
finally, only called to the Congress to receive the de-
cision of that body, and the letter and instructions of
the King of NAPLES. The Report concludes thus-
4, With respect to the Powers who have taken part
in the said deci.,ions of the Congress of Layhach, it
is my duty to inform your Rnyal Highness that Cer-
tainly Austria, Prussia, and Russia, may be consi.
dered as those which have unanimously adopted the
measure of acting hostilely against the order of things
existing in Naples. The French Plenipotentiaries at
the Congress have, indeed, adhered by a vet bal note
to the instructions given to the Ministers of the be-
forementioned three Powers, solely with the hope of
being able to avert a war ; wherefore they may, in
this respect, be considered as included in this unani-
mity. But they have not engaged in the name of
France to take any active and hostile part in the exe-
cution of the decision in case of war.

"Indeed, the letter of his Most Christian Majesty to
our Monarch, and the declaration delivered to your
Royal Highness by the French Charge d'Affaires,
may be considered as giving full assurance on this
point. His Britannic Majesty not only does not con-
cur in the principles and hostile measures of the three
Powers, but has also declared his perfect neutrality
in what relates to the question of the Kingdom of
Naples. That Sovereign has declined to partiCipate
as a deliberating party in the Congress of Laybach,
or to nominate to it his Plenipotentiary ad hoc," but
has merely ordered his Minister already accredited
to the Emperor of Austria, to attend the conferences
purely as a witness, in order that his Britannic M.
jesty might be informed of the determinations which
the said three Powers should adopt. The other Mi•
nisters of the Italian Powers have also taken no part
in the deliberatiqns. Therefore, as officially inti-
mated to your Royal Highness in a conference de-
manded and ohtaiued by the Ministers chargtd to
make known the Resolutions of the Congress of Lay-
bach, the Ministers of Ifussia, Prussia, and Austria,
have alone taken part in these conferences, and those
of England and France have no: thought fit to par-
ticipate therein.
" The facts which I have the honour to detail in the
above Report, I have previously thought it my duty
to communicate to your Royal Highness in successive
dispatches. (Signed) " The Duke of GALLO.
Naples, February 16, 1521."
TRANSLATION OF A DISPATCH FROM COUNT NEUF:ERODE, MINISTER
FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS TO THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA, TO COUNT
. STACEELRERG, ENVOI' EXTRAORDINARY AND MINISTER PLERIPO.
TERTIARY FROST THE COURT or RUSSIA TO IcArLES.
To enable your Excellency to take a complete view
of the object of the important mission which his Ma-
jesty the Emperor has entrusted to you, .and which
yoit have to fulfil in concert with the Minister of
Prussia, the Charge d'Affaires of Austria, and the
Charge d'Affaires of France, it is necessary to make
known to your Excelleney the reciprocal explanations
which, since the arrival of the King of Naples at
Laybach, have taken place between that Monarch and
the Allied Sovereigns, and the result to which the de-
liberations of their Plenipotentiaries at the Congress
has led. ,His Majesty the King of Naples, deeply
interested in knowing the intentions of the Allied
Monarchs in their full extent, relative to the affairs of
his kingdom, addressed for that purpose to the Con-
gress of Plenipotentiaries a Message, stating—
" That having accepted, with a sense of as great
importance, the invitation of his High Allies, in the
hope of conciliating that welfare which he was desir-
ous his people should enjoy, with the duties which the
Allied Monarchs might consider themselves called
upon to fulfil towards their States, and towards the
whole world ; and iu the hope of yet causing to dis-
appear, under the auspices of peace and concord,
those obstacles which for six months have separated
his States from the European Alliance; being unable
to disguise to himself the unpleasant impression which
the events that have recently occurred in his kingdom
have produced in Europe, and having reason to fear its
consequences ; having recognised with the Most lively
satisfaction that the Allied Sovereigns, faithful to the
principles of justice, suavity, and moderation by
which they have constantly been guided, have wished
to take no definitive me.,snie wlth regard to Naples
until they had tried the means of conciliation, which
they would prefer to the object which at present
unite; them ; and by being able, as long as the King
could flatter himself that he should be able to give
validity to a title so dear to his lean as that of Me.
diatar for his subjects, his Majesty was anxious to
concert with his Allies the means of sparing to his
country the miseries with which he saw it threatened:
but in order to fulfil, with any hole of success, the
important duty which was imposed upon him, he
demanded'i l°all that his Allies should declare,
‘ first
of
reserve,their intentions •to the full extent,
convinced tiahe was that they would nct fail to give
to the world on this occasion a new proof of those
elevated sentiments, and of those just and enlightened
views, ss hich,form the basis of their political conduct."
The arsaVer to this first overture was as follows :
' "That inasmuch as hi 3 Sicilian Majesty could not
be ignorant of the painful impressions produced by
the events which had happened at Naples since the
