I inclose copies of military reports from Colonel
Church, who Is employed under General Nugent, to
the 18th inst. by Lord Stewart'sprections.
On Tuesday last, I went to Civita Veichia. ssith
the view of communicating with Lord &mouth in
!his passage from Genoa to Naples. On Thursday
evening his Lordship's Hag appeared in the offing,
with four sail of the line, and I sent on board, and
put him in popession of all details u.pau Which he
proceeded forthwith to the Bay of Naples, where he !!
must have arrived this morning.
The Berwick, of 74 guns, Captain Bruce, came to
' Civita Vecchia on Saturday : finding that a Fiench
frigate had gone, into Gaeta, probably with a view of
carrying off the Bonaparte family, he proceeded, by
my desire, eq Tuesday evening in order to blockade
Gaeta.
•
A Neapolitan General arrived at Civita Vecchia on
11 Wednesday from P.itermo, which he left the Bth ;
' lie reported to me, that the .had left Palermo .
for Messier' ;• apt! that the British and Sicilian troops
were ready to embark. Letters had been sent from
General Nugent and Lord Barghersh, by Terrncitia
and Ponca to General M‘Farlane, advising the de-
barkation to be as near Naples us possible..
If Lord Borcherslea dispatches-have arrived, your
Lordship will bare been informed that the Doc de
Gallo had iuireisdered two sail of the line, and the
whole arsenal of Naples, by capitulation, to Captain"
Campbell, of the Tremendous, on his threatening to
bombard theocily. •
The aceeents herewith sent will prove satisfactorily
to your Lordship, that the war is on the eve of being
successfully terminated. The Neapolitan army does
not support the cause of Murat, much less the people,
who tecelwed the Allied troops as liberators, and are
merely tuitions for -the restorative of their ancient
stir[ legitimate • Sovereigns, being exasperated and
disgusted with all the vexations, deceptions. aad per-
fidies of Murat.
I have sent the originals of Colonel Church's re•
ports to Lord Stewart, at Vienna.
I most sincerely congratulate your Lordship on
the prospeet of so early and happy a termination to
the projects of Murat.

A-RMY LW NAPIXS.
Head-Quarur4 of Gonorni Cnnnt Nugent,
Bib(Mar of Asei., May Ifi.
MT LORD,—My last report, dated Rome, the 11th
inst. stated the march of General Count Nugerit's
corps from Va!mouton., in the Roman States, on
Firentine, and towards the frontier of the kingdom
of Naples : the enemy retiring before him, and only
engaging in partial combat occasionally, has since
that period (seen driven beyond the Garigliano, as
far back as St. Germano, a distance or thirty miles
from his frontier, followed by the advance guard,
close to that town.

On the 14th, Marshal Murat having arrived in
person at St. Germano, anal the ~my being consi.
j derably reinforced, he advanced ng-ain from St. Ger.
manu, and drove back the tadv,iece.guard of this
army ; the same evening he attacked the out-posts at
all points, anal surrounded them 's ith great supe-
riority of numbers ; notwithstanding which, the
gallantry of the troops was such, that every de.
tached guard lint only cut its way through the ene•
my, but brought in a number of prioiners, to the
amount of three or four haandred. The attack of
' tha out.posts was not followed n,, as we haat reason
to expect, by a sea ious oper:: ion against our positron
at Ceprana, on the Garigliano, in expectation of
which the troops remained the greater part of the
day in order of battle. On the 15111, the enemy
began again to retire ; his movement was then plainly
ascertained to he a manteuvre to cover and facilitate
the escape of Marshal Maarat to Capita, who arrived
at St. Germano, Kith only three or tour officers, aid
a few dragoons, and left it again in a couple of hours.
Towards sun-set on the same day, General Nugent
resumed the offensive, nntwithstaading the disparity
of numbers, the enemy having near 10,000- men :
dossing the Gat igliano oat a hi idge thaown over it,
to replace that burnt by the French General Man-
heig, when he sacked and buret the uefortutiate
town of Ceprano, be pursued his mach on the road
Oswald, Sr. Germano, and bivoustred under the
little tow a of Arco, whence this report is dated.
General Manheis has been joined by the Minister
at War, McDonald, and it is probable that their com-
bined force will occupy this night a position on the
Melia, a few miles from this camp.
On the line of operations of Gen. Count Nugent,
the right occupies Monte Corvo, Fondi, and Itri, and
the left wends as far as Isola and Sora.

have great satisfaction in informing your Lord-
ship of the loyal disposition of the inhabitants of this
part of the country, where the cockade of the legiti-
mate Sovereign is universally worn.
. The army will advance again to-morrow, and the
details of its progress transmitted to your Lordship
as soon as St. Germano is occupied, or w combat ac-
cepted.

,PR,ICE eidir

I have now the satisfactitn to inform vrar d_
ship, since that period, g series of bold and rapid
movements, on the part of that G°i eral, hay been .
crowned v. ith the most complete success, awhile
enemy's army opposed to hint detest, :i totolly,
dispersed.

On the night of the 15th, the advanced-0 M
moved forward from the camp of Arco on the road
towards San Germano, having the enemy in front,
strongly poited on the banks of Or MON ; dining
the night, however, he retreated to -San aermilni),
breaking down the bridge acres that . river. No.
time was lost. in 'throwing a bridge over the Nielfg,
and at ten o'clock on the morning of the 16th, it
was crossed by the infantry ; the cavalry In (lie
mean tune having passed it where it was fordable for
horses.

On the same day before day-:ight, Gen. Nugent.
advanced his whole corps to 'he Melia, and having
there received a reinforceme•tt of hussars and chase
seurs, he marched forward in order of battle to at-
tnrk the enemy at San dermano, whereshe units
forces of Macdonald, Mattheis. and Pignetelli lean
taken post. A small corps of ..dvancst had marched.
from iltiotte Corr° to turn the enemy's left flank,
and which had already got behind his position, dud.
An armed inhabitants of the village of Piedemnnte,
with a few soldiers, possessed themselves of the.
strong •position of the Convent of Monte Casino,
upon the mountain witch proterts the fie,. 11..t0k of
San Germano; the army at the same time atfrancetr
, upon the high road, preceded by the %hole of ft::
' Tuscan cavalry, and some squadrons of hussars.—
On the approach of the troops, the enemy. declined
file combat, and-hastily abandoned his• position,
leaving behind him many ptisoners and Ae:ertets,..
end fell back to the village of Mignano, nine s
distant from this place; San Germano was in cor.-
sequence immediately occupied by the Allied trecps.
The taking of San Germano was hut the prelude
to a movement which terminated gloriously for this.
army, in the total annihilation of the enemy's corps
opposed to it.
In the position of Mignano, where his whole force
was again united, he was attacked at midnight by
the advance guard commanded by Baron d'Aspre,
without about seven or eight hundred men, the dark-
ness of the hour preventing him from ascertaining
the• strength of the attacking corps, the enemy's
troops after a few discharges of _musketry were to-
tally routed, saving only his cavalry and artillery.
fn this attack, singularly successful and highly cre-
ditable to Baron d'Aspre and the troops under his
orders, above one thansand prisoners have been
made, a quantity of arms and military equipments
taken, and the whole of the enemy's infantry dis.
persed. Deserters, in companies of hundreds, have
come iu and are hourly joining this camp.
This brilliant affair has concluded the operations
of Count Nugent in this quarter, in which he has
destroyed the army called the Army of the Interior,
with a force originally very infetior to that of the
enemy. During the last ten days, the NP* pnlitan
army has lost at least from six to seven thousand
risen ; and the whole norther of this army (alluding
solely to the army opposed to General Nugent)
escaped from the general overthrow. cannot amount
to more than seven hundred. In the coarse of. this
General's movements, commencing at Pistoia, he
has, at different periods, defeated the enemy's Ge-
nerals Ctrascosa, Manheis, I.ivron, Macdonald, and
the two Pignatellis, besides others ; and not even •
the presence of 'Marshal Murt himself, at flan Ger-
mano, on the 15th, could prevent the destrw,cion
of his army, and consequently the ruin of his au-
thority.
General Count Nugent's.head-q.narters arc at M:*-
nano, from whence I have returned and forward this
report ; and the column of his right wing. which ad-
vanced from Terracina, occupies Mole di Gaeta, the
enemy having retired over the Garigliano, and burnt
the bridge.--I have the honour•to be, lice.

PROCEEDINGS AT rot CHAMP DE MAI-
-11 ARIAKE SPEECH or THE FRENCH EM-
PEROR AND THE DEPUTATIONS—NAPO-
LEON'S DEPARTURE tor. Tim FRONTIERS
FIXED FOR THIS DAY, &c. &c.

The Pisris Papers of Friday an.] Saturday last
reached us this forenoon. They bring us the inte-
resting particulars of the Meeliog of the Champ de
Mai, which took phleft on Thursday,—of that
• Meeting of the Parliament and People of France
which was to Show WiiltliEr NAPOLEON rONAPAAIP
was or was Riot callc•ci to empire by the c. nice of
the French Nation,—of that N•ttional Assrmbly-
NStich has pronounced hini, and him WOW`, worthy
of the Clown of Frame, and again committed to
the greatest of her warrio:s and the ahlest of her
statesman, the caie, of her interests and glory,—the
utrength and liberties of the tia!i.in, fozath-d on a
Constitution su!tmittcd t", and approved of by, the
People. The meetings at Vienna, which proscribed the
French Emperor and his adherents, fixed in the imagi-
nations of Kings the destinies of France—this assem-

bly has fixed the destieies of Europe—for it has armed
•theinan-itztlinaiv! ern The Sovereigns of Europe have
sworn eternal enmity, with all the energies of the
greatest nation of the Continent, and sent him forth to.
combat against them, not for himself alone, though his.
life is considered as intimately connected with the
glory, the happiness, and the prosperity of France
—4lld, therefore, it is secure, among Frenchmen—
but for the preservation of all these,--for the in-
dependence, and the very existence of the French
nation,-so vauntingly given to destruction. The
Allies will now see' what they have brought on
themselves—and the world, for what purpose Na.-
roi.ros has been recalled. We ventured to dive a
littie into the reel views and motives of the pro-
scribing coalition, and we said some weeks ago, that
the olij7ct of the new war was to endeavour to'
enlarge the new kingdom el the Prince of ORANGE,
which has been obtained avid kept, and is now to be
P.xtentletl, rosshile, at our expence, and to take for
this purpose her chief fortresses from France ; this
is now confirmed from the mouth of her Emperor.—
What, asks el. Desots, the organ of the Deputa-
tion, in his Address to the Emperor, " What is the
meaviiiig of this hostile league of Allied Kings,
whose warlike preparations astonish all Europe, and
are so aClictieg to humanity ? Gy what act have we
provoked this aggression ? have we si .wo the peace at-
temp .ed to dictate !a ws to them ?"—'rtris is a question'
deserting of an answer—and the Empe-
ror, in his reply, every word and sentence of
which is important. to the world, informs the
rreach rople, that the Pi inces who mean .to make
war upon France, " in!end to take from us all our.

THE STATESMAN.

tu eon a monarch and , kis .peop!e—France repre-
sented by the chosen of its citizens, farmers, mer-
cliants, toacistrater. soldiers, ass,arthled round the
throne—a great population CIPVCIing the. Champ de
Mars, tended to renew the recollection of the most
memorable events. •
We sinl not eater to-day upon the interesting
particulars of this ceremony—we sill only give the
general details. The thrfne of the Emperor in front
of the Military School, and in the centre of a vact
amphitheatre, in which 15,00(} persons were seated;
about 9.00 yards in front was another throne, which
overlooked the whole Champ de Mars.
The Emperor repaired to the Camp de Mars in the
order which has been published, and was received
with uciveral acclamations. Mass was celebrated
by the Archbishop of Tours, at which Cardinal de
Brigade, and four other Bishops assisted.
The Mass ended, the Members of the Deputation,
about 500 in number, ascended the steps of the
throne, ashen M. Dubois d'Angers addressed his
Majesty to the following effect :
" SIRE, —The French people gave you the Crown,
you deposed yourself without their consent, and they
imposed it upon you again.
" A new contract is formed between your Majesty
and the people.
" Assembled from all points of France, we come
to state the will of the people, the only legitimate
source of authority of which we are the immediate
organ.

" Wind is the meaning of this hostile league of
Allied }Our, 'whose warlike preparations astonish all
Europe, and are so afflicting to humanity.
" By what act hare we protoked this aggression ?
Have we since the peace attempted to dictate laws to
them ? We do not wish a Chief of their appoint-
ment, we wish one of our own. They dish to pre-
scribe p...rsonally to us. You, Sire, who were so
often master of their capitals, and have so gene-
rously spared them—you they have personally pro-
scribed. This hatred towards you renders you dearer
to us. •

" They menace us with an invasion : but it will
not be the first time x e shall have conquered Europe

in arms against us.
" A million of Functionaries, of Magistrates, who

for 25 years have followed one system; 500,000
warriors; 6,000,000 of freeholders, possessed of na-
tional estates; and twice es.rnairy Citi7ent, actuated
by the sing principles i all these worthy Frenchmen
are not the Frenchmen of the Bourbons, nho
would only reign for the sake of a band or -privi-
leged persons during twenty-five yeartiare -either
pardoned or punished ? •

It would he difficult to cypress the emotion which
dismayed itself on all coentennncev at these words
of the Emperor, or of the c:ies which succeeded it.
Then the Grand Almonor, the Ihi I r_rc.t..op of
Boorges, approached the Throne, anal presented on
his knees the Holy Evangelists to the Emperor, who
took the oath in these words,--
46 I SWEAR TO OaSEP.VV,, ANn MIME TO EE OB-
SERVED, THE CONSTITLTION OF THE EMPIRE."
The Prince Arct-Claticellor advanciag to the foot
of the Throne, provounced 144 ilie oath of fidelity
to the Constitution; thy whole Asscmhly then re.
peated it with one acclamation.
Whilst this was goiog on the Assembly, instead of
returning to their seats, crowded round the Emperor,
who was then encircled like the father of a fpmily.
They did not retire until after the singing of the Te
Deltas, when the Presidents of the Electoral Col-
leges advanced to receive the Eagles destined for the
National Guard of the respective Departments, which
were delivered in the manner arranged in the Pro.
gramme.

The Emperor then throwing oft' the Imperial Min.
tle, thus addressed the Assembly :

" Soldiers of the National Guard, of the troops
of the land and of the sea, I confide to you the
penis! Engle,, which you swear to defend at the et-
pence of your blood against the enemies of your
Country."

Universal cries of "WE SWEAR ii," continued for
length of time, in the midst of which the Emperor
placed himself on the elevated Throne in the Midst
of the Champ de hiers, as Colonel of the National
Guards, and delivered the Eagles to the Presidents
of the devartamits—Couut Chaptal, Preaidet:t of


,

the Electoral Colleges of Paris, and Count Durossel,
Lient.-General, receised the Eagles of the National
Guard, and Count Friart that of the Imperial
Guard—the troops then encircled the Throne, and
the Emperor thus addressed them :

• 46 SoLniens! confide to you the Impeviei
Eagle. You swear to perish, if nee:airy,. id de.
fending it against the enemies of the country." -
That immense army, which surrorinded the throne,
interrupted the Emperor by thunders of applause,
repeating, " we swear• it." Silence being again oh.
rained, the Emperor coniinurri, .

" You, soldieis of the Natintial Guard of Pada,

Ile wits again interrepted by continued sboats of

" And you soldiers of the Imperial Guard, you
swear to even surpass yourselves in the canspal4a
about to open, and to die rather than allow the in..
vaders to dictate laws to your country !"
The whole Champ de Mars resounded with inde-
scribable acclamation,.

Then the troops, amounting to upwards of 50,000,
men; of whom 27,000 were National Guards, defiled
before the Emperor, amidst cries of Vie l'Empe.

The Emperor then returned to the MiMiry School,
in the midst of an 'immense crowd, who pressed
round him so as almost to prevent his passage; and ,
he returned to the Thuilleties its the same manner so
he quitted it.
