BALTIMORE. ,Sebt. 81.

BY the schr. Kite, captain Thompson, II
As days from Naples, late and importan
intelligence has been received.
Captain t. brings no papers from Italy
the cause assigned for this omission is, tina
he hurried off" in consequence of &C
counts from Paris, OF the negociation witt
general Armstrong having been broken off
Que report at Naples, on the 10Th August
the day before the Kite sailed, was that
Our minister had demanded passports TO re-
turn home: another, that peace between
france and Austria had been ratified. We
give these verbal accounts as they were re
ceived SO also, the written accounts con-
tanned IN private correspondence.
By the pollteness OF those gentlemen to
whom they were addressed, We are obliged
with the sight of latest letters from Italy,
1heir contents, from intelligent sources are
commercially important, as they state,
That since his victory over thu Austri-
ans, Bonaparte is even less yielding & con-
ciliating In his temper.
That the scvcrest edicts or commercial
topics aave given to them wider range and
more rigid execution.
That the permission to import colonial
produce vas suspended in this suspension
the ports OF Holland are closed, aad its ri.
gid execution is extended even to prizes
colonial produce on board of captured YES
sells not b ,lag permitted to enter the ports
OF France, or her dependencies.
That LATEST accounts from Vienna inform
ed OF peace between France and Austria !;
which was 50 fully credited that the mar
kets &c. were regulated accordingly.
81 this arriva! wc further learn, that the
British Amy under general Stuart, $4,000
strong, had been urged by the Young p,ince
OF Naples 70 make a descent On tina; city or
kingdon1; king ;t,ura, had about 10000
men, bat the Engiish had not, when the
Kite sailed, landed on tnc main. They had
however, quiet possession of the island Of
Ischia. Fas isla,.I is situated at the entrance
Of the bay, about tour leagues from the city
OF Naples Is aoout ten miles in circumtef-
ence, and contains about 1000 inhabitants !;
1t is t'ae See OF bishop, suiiragan or Naples.
The town of ischia Is situated on a rock on
the north side OF ;he island, with which it
comm ln'ca.es by a bridge. On this island
and IN Sicily, Ii was supposed the British
army wouil awai: farther Intelligence from
the Danube.
1t is TO he regretted that the two last ar
rivals from The Mediterranean, which, be-
ing short passages, could have brought ne VS.
three 7veeks latest, furnish no intelligence
whatever from Spain. We may, however,
hourly expect the arrival Of sch'r Hound,
from Cadiz; as she was spoken by thl Kite
aud is said 70 have left that place about the
ED OF August.
CBlA. Fed. Gaz.
A gentleman Of this CITY has received r
letter from Legho n, dated 5dAugust,w i,
mentions upon the authority OF Paris letters
of the 28th July, that gen. Armstrong was
returning from France that the pope bad
been carried through village within Is lta-
liam miles Of Leehorn, in custody of two
gems d'arlnes and attended only by a priest,
We also learn sha, the Dutch relaxations IN
favor of trade were about to be revoA ed thar
The importation of West India produce is
forbidden in all the ports under the sway OF
Bonaparte and that those artlcl were not
permitted TO b.: sold when brought In as
prize. 1t was said that Our affairs With
France were in very uniavorahle condl"
ton.
We find that the Kite really left Naples
precipitateiy, and that the departure OF gen
Armstrong was treated by some as tact
leading TO important events.
