Intelligence has reached various parts of Italy,
an extensive insurrection had hrdken out at
Smyrna ; no authentic news of the event, how-
ever, has as yet been received.
Letters from Venice contain disastrous details of
the damage occasioned by the late tempestuous
gales in the Adriatic. They also announce, that
although the lonian Isles, at present, appear to
enjoy perfect tranquillity, still a somewhat turbu-
lent disposition prevails amongst the inhabitants,
not only at St. Maura, but also in the other tales.
Severtheless, they do the English Authorities the
justice to say, that they behaved with great mode-
ration with regard to the persons who took part in
the late insurrection at St. Maur*. They likewise
allude to some agents who excite the inhabitants:
it is indeed said, that discoveries have been made ;
but nothing authentic on this head has hitherto
transpired.
We stated a few days ago, that Messrs. Dolby,
Watlen, Shorter, &c. had received intimation that
the notice, of trial were countermanded. It hasi
been supposed by souse, that the prosecutions were gives.

the latter only has been countermanded. Watlen hat
received three notices of countermand; there were four
prosecutions against him for selling seditious ifesuphietst.
the fourth remains unconiradicted, thedefendant having
notice of trial to be prepared fur the Sittings after Terns,
moil being called on to appear and reduce the Jury.—
Foie informations were also filed against Shorter;
three fur numbers of The Republica's, and one for a pub-
lication, called !Ilse Theological and Politic& Comet r 4
or, Freethiokiwg Essglishmas. Two notices of conn-
terniand have been served, but two notices for trial at
the sittiegs after Term stand; namely, fur publishing

Another account of this melancholy occurrence
was received in town last night, by a packet which
arrived on earl• yesterday morning:—

(Wale, Feb. IS, ten u'efeek p. na.

News is just received here by the conductor of the
diligence, who left Paris yesterday morning at six
o'clock, that the Duke de herri was assassinated on
rousing out of the Opera-house, at two o'clock in the
ttttt rising; the assassin was immediately taken under
I'.lresule Colbert. The conductor of the diligence, to-
gether with the passengers,confirnied this news on being
interrogated before the Commissaire de Police, and the
Ilayor of this place.

Of the particulars of this atrocious deed we are
as yet uninformed; but as the assassin did Dot
escape, the nest mail V 1 ill doubtless bring a full
account, and explain whether the villain has been
excited to the perpetration of the act fro►n political
hostility, or of personal vengeance, for sonic real
or supposed injury received from the Prince.
