The expense of maintaining them is of course to be defrayed by the Italian. Treasury, which is to remit ta the French Treasury monthly, about 100,0001. Theeonquestof the Neapolitan territory is rot finally completed tiaeta still holds out. The Neapolitan armywhich retired into Cala bria, waa not capable of making successful Resistance to the French divisions wbteh Were detached after it. Probably a principal mo tive for retreating into that end of the penin sula was the' hope of obtaining a readier pas sage to Sicily. Geaeral Dumas, it would ap pear did not think it prudent to maintain himself in the strong position he had taken; the numerous redoubts were abandoned with out a 'shot. ; these articles from Naples my Nothing of the Prince Royal and his brother ; sWe may therefore conclude that they have ef fected Weir retreat to Messina. Buonaparte Continues lo indulge his unmanly and brutal rancour againstj the Queen of Naples.' T The German Princes are moved about by Buonoparte with as much Facility and non chalance as men upon a chess board. The Archduke Ferdinand was to have Wurtr burh. as an indemnity to him for the loss of Saltzburgh 5, but that arrangement has been deemed improper. Thepolitical chess player does not ehuse to. have an Austrian Prince so hear the Austrian territories. The Archduke is to have the Principality of Ful- ' da, and the prince of Orange is to be mo .ved to" the Bishopric of Osnaburgh. The Pope is also to make a nie -Buonaparte Jia- i Ting no further occasion for his services, U little solicitous about pleasing or displeasing him and be and the conclave are to take their final leave of the holy city, and to have an' e Stabliahment in the Venetian territories ' The dominions of the church will enable .

B it, whiUt he is parcelling out Germany and Italy his restless eye is fixed upon ano ther source of plunder and partition He is ! ambitious of addi.ig another diadem toihosa ! he has already usurped, and to sit down upon the throne of Cocstantine. He will soon burst upon Turkey, and it is for this purple h? is collecting a large army in Dalmatia; 45 000 men are already- assembled there. But Turkey will not fall without a blow J and thouirh the disturbed state of her provinces an I the licentious character of her soldiery forbid our expecting that he can herself xnike any effectual resistance to the t reach troops, yet UussU will not suffer her to fall' an easy prey. Aware of the intentions of linonapirte, the Emperor Alexander U ta kim the necessiry precautions, and has al ready seitedavery important post. By the 33d article of the treaty of Prcsburg, the m uih of the Catuto were ceded to France, 'he French troop were on their march to take possesion of them, but the Russians, were before-hand with them, ai'd appearing uddenly before Kocca di Calabro, which, commands the. mouth of Cattato, summon ed the Austrian to surrender it the Auv trian co:nnunder immediately gave it up, al ledjing tht,hevws not strong enough to defend it. Buon-parte, however, we dare say, will consider this surrender as the con- rquence of an understanding and agreement between the courts of Vienna and Peters burgh, and will express his displeasure to the Austrian government.

These letters also state that a Truman army h.a bce marched through lloUteio. .for the purp-ue of shutting up the wound against our trade.

The French have withdrawn their troop . from Hanover ; &ihe whole country is taken possesion of by Prussia.. . : - ' From the line" of conduct which Prussia has pursued, in all her late measures, there remains no question, but she was called 'upon by Buonaparte to make her election, either to declare or Russia and Englaai or against them. - The mission of the Duke of Brunswick to Petersburg is said to have failed. The ob ject of it was believed to have been to recon cile the Emperor Alexander to the conduct of the Prussian cabinet, and to prevail on hird to withdraw hjs troops frons Puland. Toe Duke has returned to Berlin. It is very evident that Prussia is complete ly under the control of France; and that her alliance will end in her subjugation by that power. The possession of Hanover, howe ver it may give to Prussia a larger extent of territory and population, 'than she has ceded, is no real equivalent for being thurst back from the Rhine to the Wesel, for the loss of the important posts of Cleves and Wetel, for having a French prince placed as a kind of watch and centinel at her gates, and for the rapid decline of her influence over the Elec tor of Hesse, and possibly the Elector of baxony. , , The Budget brought forward in Parliament by Mr. Fox, contemplates a new and addi tional tax otvPolicies of Insurance, on Wue, oh the Property Tax, and on Broad Cloth.

Skilly, defended at it is by British troop's, and guarded by a British squadron. Accounts have reached England of the sail, ing of a Spanish squadron from Carthagena, consisting of eijiht sail of the line and two frigates their destination not known; but it was presumed that Ad.
