Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1832-05-14

The supreme dabdies Of Paris have got into
trouble from mere change in their craniology.
We take the following paragraphs from different
numbers of the latest file Of Galignani's Messen-
ger:
Bright scarlet hats of the ordinary form ap-
pear to be destined to replace--on the heads Of
those young gentlemen Who find notoriety more
easily attained by the exterior than the interior
furniture of their cranums-the uil-skin hats,
which have been placed under sentence of re-
probation. Three young men. covered with this
dashing coi6nre, were seen promenauing yester-
day 10 the gardens Of the Luxembourg

already alluded. as having adopted the ridiculous
fancy of wearing scarlet hats, were Promenading

Naplss apprehend that some mistake
must exist in the repor, Of an adjustment with
Naples having been completed; because it is ru
mored, since the arrival of the Ontario, that the
friyate United States will soon proceed tothe Me-
diterranean, and be fuIo~ed, at an early day, by
the ship Of the Line Deia0are, now undergoing
repairs.
This is a very curious mistake, certainly; for
il seems to be bevond doubt, now, that the intnr-
nation Of an adjustment Of our claims upon the
Neapolitan Government was, 10 say the least OF
i, premature. We thought. indeed, that the ar
.angement was rather ef the suddenest; but we
lid believe, until we read the above paragraph in
he Government paper Of yesterday, that the Ad-
was in luck this time. But the rea-
ION ,chy the Globe apprehends that " some mis-
axe must exist in the report" is vastly more Gu
ious than the mistake itself. What connection

or the Mediterranean, and of the " Ship Of the
line" that is to follow her. with our Mission to
Naples? Only one inference is deducible from

eparture to the Mediterranean depended upon
