I lie Neapolitans were at Rieti, a town within the Roman States, situated about eleven l-aous from Spoletto,and six from Rome It appears that one of their divisions was on its raar-ih to occupy Trivoli ; another division had entered upon the marshes of nconn and had estabtihed Munici palities in all the Communes which it had occupied. A levy en inassc - has been ordained throughout Calabria. Preparations were making at Cozenza, to receive the Parliament and Royal family.

At this date1 the various Generals appointed to the command in chief of the divisions of the Neapolitan army had quitted the capital for their respective posts. Every thing seemed to indicate, that the Neapolitans were determined to act on the offensive. Gazette de France. Naples, Feb. 16. The following is the copy of the man ifesto, which his Holiness the Pope lias caiiM-d to be published in the town of K'a to : The Austrian troops advance; they come as friends, and their march has no other end than to pass into the kingdom oi Nr.ples to re-establish there that peace uiiicii re-conquered alter the effusion of : m;:ch blood, has again been disturbed i.i th:u kingdom by recent events. We exhort all the people of Italy, and the Neapolitans themselves to treat 'them "iith perfect hospitality. ' .

We shall again see each other in this place, my dear colleagues, if we are not killed,' Vienna, Feb. 24. Much alarm is -entertained relative to the fatp pie since it is found that : War can no longer be averted. It is thought that the King of Naples, will accompany his daughter-in-law, the Princess de.Saierne, to this capital, and not return to Na ples until the war shall have been con eluded. 1 lie circular of the English govern-,' tneiu respecting the notes oi the three, great powers, on the subject of the Con gress at Tropiau and that of Lay-1 bach; was read here with some sm!

Intelligence from Frankfort announces the death, on the 2tth ultimo, of his Royal Highness the Elector of Hesse Castle, of an apoplectic fit. The Prince was in the 78th year' of his age. The following are extracts: Frankfort, Feb. 28. 1 he first act of the pJenepotentiaries at the Congress of Laybach, was the decis ion.pf the Allied Sovereigns on the affairs of Naples. Papers are expected to ap pear of equal importance with that which is probably going to occasion a war in the South of Italy. ; The answers of Russia to the projects of Austria, gives rise to very serious conjectures. It is probable we shall soon learn on what subjects the Congress has come to any final resolutions. A Declaration of the Sovereign relative to the affairs of Spain is spoken of, and also that a Russian 'En voy is commissioned to go and notify' it to the present government of that country. It is much doubted whether this Decla ration will be received bv the Cortes. Berlin, Feb. 17. It is said that the Prince Metternich and Count Kernstorff are perfectly agreed in their views of the present state of Eu rope: and it is thought that a Prussian Declaration against the Neapolitans, drawn up in the same spirit as that of Austria will be published immediately. London.

The troops have received orders to march. . General Carasco has taken the supreme command. Begani had en trenched himself in Gaeta. The Nea politan troops appear to have a design of marching against Rome.- Gazette de France. I A Proclamation in the Latin language which it is thought has been drawn up at Naples, has been disseminatedamongst the Hungarian regiments, which form part, of the Austrian !axmy in Italy. Courier Francois. Paris, March 3. I Yesterday the 2d, there was a Secret Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, in which the Minister of Foreign Affairs was called upon to let the .nation know the situation in which France stands with respect to the Kingdom of Naples. M. Etienne and Generals Foy and Sebasti ani delivered speeches which were in the highest decree interesting, and which af fected the whole Chamber. The Minis ter was hard pushed, but persisted in keeping silence, and would not give any information upon our situation with re spect to Naples and Spain : he -pleaded the Charter as his authority, which gives to the King the right of making war and peace.

Sitting of the Parliament of Naples, of ' the 15th February-. The delegate BoreltL chairman of the committee appointed to report an opinion arjd drafts of resolutions respecting the definitive notes from the Congress of Laybach, repeated in more detail an in troduction to bis .report- Cwith regard to the Kiriff's Declaration of the ; 7th Dec. He proved that the Neapolitan Constitn- ben spootanrously eranted by KingFer-' Xia j i jciLiUiJ uau 4 airriis, that the same "sovereign Who now seek to destroy it, had used at two very distinct 'junctures, a language quite different, touching f the pretended riu r mo4i:n iU Irfnrnnf !&f. rairs of foreign nations. The nrst junc ture was that of the obstinate war svith the French1 Republic which they justified by the' allegation that she propagated her principles' by the sword,' and threatened the independence of fother governments. hThe second epoch was that of which they summoned all the nations of Europe, to defend ; their independence ; against' the enormous power of Bonaparte. j ' Borelli spoke ofjtfie manner in which Austria had calumniated the? establish ment of the; Neapolitan "Constitution, by representing it as an absurd and bloody anarchy, an had availed herself of this phantom, to induce Russia and Prussia: to lend their' aid in measures directed solely to her private advantage.' The orator spoke constantly of Austria as the power which single and apart in this bu sinesss of her interested policy ; he paid the loftiest tribute to the generosity and liberality of the Emperor Alexander, and he pointed out how Prussia had yiel ded from complaisance, t& the instigations of Austria, thouglfligainst her real way of thinking He discoursed also of; the King of Naples, and inferred, from the language of his letter of the 28th Jalma ry to the Prince Regent J that tlie riion- i arch had written it . by compulsion, and , that its tenor was also owing to the, cir j cumstance of his being deprived of his; constitutional advisers, foi whom .he had . been substituted prince.' Buffo, a traitor to his country, and one who had been : stripped of all his titles and dignities by this same King. Andj as regards;, the 1 Duke de Gallo, he had been suffered to remain at Laybach o nlyfa few hours, his i ears being declared offfeial but not his I tongue,. Upon England the orator be ' stowed abundant and earnest applause tool spirit inmate! in the English, temperament. France! he represented u neutral and eve desrrous of effecting an adjustment withoutf wrong and op pressioni ; and in no wise capable of uni ting her arms with those of Austria! &e then shewed that the Allies had left the Neapolitans no jjscope for hesita tion as to the course they should pursue, since while they were covered with op probium on the one hixhd, nothing was offered them on the othW but a diminu tion of, the burthen cjf taxes. Vhen, moreoverJ the occupation of the kingdom w,as mentioned,' the terip. of it was not specifiednothing then remained for the nation but the alternative of conquering her oppressors, or perishing gloriously. "Success was not impossible; for although Austria threatened her yvith one hundred thousand men, not more than sixty thou sand effective troops were at hand.- These being repulsed, some months would elapse before the Russians could arrive ; and it wOuId yet remain to be seen whe ther they marched to occupy Germany or Italy. Other nations he exclaimed, for instance rhe; Swiss and the Dutch had fought and conquered with forces still more disproportioned. j If, percrtance, the war should be pro tracted," it may give bjrth to incidents favourable! to the Neapolitan cause our enemies will, perhaps, learn to repent of having drawn hither the Cossacks of the Don a reverse of fortune suffered by the Anstrians mavirouse and propel all the inhabitants of Italy to second the might engage in the Neapolitans they Ip'fnr th f!rpiir of the cause of all the freemen throughout the uni verse and-.all freemen would; aid witHi their prayers or. their arms. Borelli concluded by exhorting the Neapolitans not to hide g-om themselves the heavy calamities to which they would be exposed by resistance ; the death of the persons most dear tqj them ; 'he plun der of their property ; the violation oi tlieir wives ; the devastation of their cquntry ; l?ut at the saihe time, he ven tured to predict to them, confident in God, the protector of the Sicilies, that if Hipv hpmirailv laced those c-larnilie?. and shewed themselves firm and fearless, thev would in the end see an tneir enoris crowned with the most briliant and lasting success. , RESOLVE OP THE PARLIAMENT.

The Prince Regent of Naples had a bolished the punishment of ( floggi.ij(: for military offences, as an outrage on the dignity of man. ': ' , . OMtNOtn FACTS. The London Morning Chronicle con tains a note to tlie Editor, stating. the curious historical fact, that the first Duke of Austria, lost his head in the market place of Naples, in consequence of an un successful attempt to invade that king dom. This, event was also fatal to the first house of Austria, and led to the uc cession of the existing race of kings to the Austrian throne. M. Stabl, a Prussian renowned for his love df liberty, 'has already arrived at Naples. He is goinito take part in thje war for Neapolitan independence, .. with the sarne energy that he joined the defen ders of Spain against the armies of Buo naparte. Several Poei have likewise set out from France to oppose, on the soil of Naples the arms of , Austria. They . mav be able to contribute much to causa discretion among those Poles who are in the Austrian regiment. ? ABSTRACT OP NEWS.; ' On the 22d February the Austrian army had advanced to F oligni, A miles north of Rome. The head quarters of the Neapolitans was at Rieti, '38 N. N. E. oif Rome ; so that theidvance of the two armies was distant only 3$ miles, 3 days military march. Thus the Neapol itans had passed Rome, and judiciously transferred the theatre of war from their own territory. Another Neapolitan di-f vision was marching upon Trivolil5 E. N. E. a beautiful but rouh military country. - . Tlie Austrian divisionwhich arrived at Foligini, must be that which marched by Florence and Sienna; and the two col- . umns-which were to have advanced by Commachio and the Rubicon, must have halted ; as the Neapolitans had thrown a military force into Ancona, which is 110 miles north east of Rome, on the xVdriatic coast. A very remarkable oc currence should the information' be cor rect. A lew en masse had been ordered m Calabria and all the Neapolitan generals had joined their corps.
