486 THE NATIONAL REGISTER. FltOM THE 0V I EDO AZETT E. INTELLIGONCE I'IIOM CATALONIA. OVIEDO, .1 I LV 13.—The little information we possess rela tive to the state of Catalonia, must render the following news received here very interesting,. Restrained by the Governors, Aleades Mayor, and Plana I%la vor, the Catalonians succeeded in di3emharrassing themselves of their impediments, or, in their own words, made a finish of them, to the middle of June there were already at• the Moli nos del Rey 151)0 men front Lerida; 500 from Tortola were soon e y petted, and as Many Inure Valencians ; to lay siege to Barce lona. The French in Barcelona are greatly in want of powder and provisions. A vessel loaded with powder, and another .with pork. have been taken from them. In consequence of this scar city. the people were in the most critical circumstances, and the Fre•uch were quite at a loss ti hat to do. If they tried to escape by sea, there was an English squadron t• if by land, there was a cordon of troops drawn from Moncado to Mawr). Their at tempts attainst the first of these places, and also that on Monett legre, terminated rather unpleasantly for those heroes, as they fancied they could take than without any trouble; but nothiug ran deprive them of the glory of having laid waste the whole plain of Barcelona, all the cultivated fields, all the villages, and the churches. They have also burnt down a great number of houses in the towns of Nlatorell, Nlolinos del Rey, and other places, all within the district of the city of Bareelona.— Lastly, we are assured that a great firing had been heard be tween Figueras, Ampurdan, and San Fernando. The Junta at Catalonia have established themselves at Lerida, in order to ren der the communication with Aragon and Valentia more certain. DEPOSITION Ole THE POPE. .........-- His Majesty the King of Sicily has caused to he published the different Notes that passed between the Secretaries of his Holi ness and Mons. Lefebvre, the French Charge d'Affaires, and General MioHis, who in February - 'last tool: r ossession of the City of Rome, under the pretext of expelling those whom he denominated " , Yeapolitan Brigands." The Notes are pre ceeded• by a very impartial dissertation on the circumstances whereby France has lately acquired such power and consequence amongst the European States. It arraigns the conduct of Bona parte with great severity, in overturning the ancient tiovern meats of Europe, enslaving the inhabitants under his minions and dependants. The visible head of the Catholic Church was deprived of his temporal territories, contrary to religion and the law of Nations, under a most imprudent pretext, that the occu pation of the Ecclesiastical States by French troops was ren dered necessary, because " it was a measure of security for the tranquillity of Italy," a phrase entirely void of meaning; but in the spirit of those reasons, which the French Revolutionists urged for the infamous aggressions they committed against every legitimate Soverei i vt. The Ist Note is dated from the Palais Quirinal, from Cardinal Pamtili to NI. Lefebvre, and is dated the .2tl of March. It com plains ill the most glowing language of the French Commandant, in forcibly depriving the Chevalier Alfieri of the go% ernment of Rome; of placing a guard at the Post-office, and opening all the letters, in defiance of the public law ; of forcibly incorpo rating the Papal troops with those of France, and placing guards on all the printing-houses, and thereby depriving his Holiness of the Liberty of the Press. The '2d Note is from the same Cardinal to Lefebvre. remon strating, in the name of his Holiness, against the proceedings of the French Commander in imprisoning and threatening the Offi cers of his Boliness with banishment, because they were averse to unite with the French against the inclination of their Sove reign. 'l'l►r 3d Note is written by the Secretary of his Holiness to such Cardinals as were ordered by the French to quit the Papal Dominions. Their na►ue; are Cardinal Guiseppe, Doria Pam and the Pope's Minister, who was replaced by Cardinal Galtrie The 1:11 Note is from Cardinal Gabrielli to Lefebvre, com plaining of the behaviour of the French in imprisoning and ba nishing of other Cardinals, natives of Italy, as well as of Na ples. The sth Note requires the Treasurer of his Holiness to give two Cardinals banished to the North of Italy 1000 Lens each. The Oth Note is from Cardinal Gabrielli to Lefebvre., corn ph Ming of the French 0 iliccrs having seiied a number of the Pa pal troops, and confining them, and requiring their liberation. JULY 31. The 7th Note is from the same to the same, signifying that af ter the forced incorporation of the Italian and French troops, his Holiness had caused those of his troops who still rema i ned faithful to him to wear a cockade ditlerent from the rest, that the public might not ascribe to him the excesses of the French. The Bth Note is front M. Champagny, addressed to Cardinal Caprara. It calls upon the Pope to declare war against Eng land, and in the event of his refusing to do so, threatens to over turn the Government, and to establish another, which will wake common cause with Italy and Naples against the common ene. my.—The Note then concludes with an expression of regret that the Cardinal Caprara's demand for passports canpelled his Im perial litjesty to consider Rome in a state of wares ith France. PRAM , ' 1 kI.S. ORIt;HTON, Jet.v 22.—A singular accident occurred here last night. Two sailors, who had landed but a shot time before front the Dapper gun-brig, lying-to oft' the town, in passing up North-street, observed a whisky empty, standing at the doo r of the Coach and Horses-inn in Notth-street, a boy having the care of the animal in the shafts. The sailors, both nearly intoxi cated, instantly determined on a ride, and presently seated theta selves in the vehicle, and called to the boy who h e ld the horse, to take care of himself. Without conceiving it necessary to make use of the reins, the whip was now forcibly applied, and the horse at full speed, dashed off with them. On reachihg the top of the street, the horse, in lieu of pursuing the road over the hurch-hill, took another that led into a chalk-pit, when., in the end, his progress being impeded, lie turned himself about, ' and returned down North-street with the same degree of speed as he had previously passed up, one sailor continuing furiously to make use of the whip, while the other, with Stentorian )ur i c:, desired all the people he saw to take care of their hulks, lest his vessel, which was sailing after the rate of twenty knots an hour, should run them down. It was at this tiple about half past nine o'clock, and rather dark, so that the individuals ia the street, from the irregular progress of the chaise, being as often on the footpath as on the carriage road, were occasionally in the mast imminent danger of being rode over. The sailors, however, passed down North-street, and through Castle-square w ith safe ty ; but on reaching the Ste) ne, the horse, instead of turnin4, n 9 by the bye-road to the right, made a desperate leap at the fence, breaking one of the posts and two of the rails, and throwing the sailors with dreadful violence on the ground. One of them was but little hurt, but the other had two of his ribs and his collar , bone broken. The latter was taken, in a senseless state, to the shop of \l r. New ham, surgeon, w here restoratives were applied with success, and he was subsequently put into a boat and con veyed to his vessel. The horse, with the chaise in a verb shat tered state at his heels, put to the rout the fashionable pedes trians on the Step ne, occasioning a scene of confusion there that may be better conceived than expressed. Happily no oue, the sailor excepted, was h a rt; and the horse, without hating sus tained any material damage whatever, was ultimately stopped in the inner inclosure of the North part of the walk. T EII OT rAToEtt.—ln a garden in Ipswich, on Tuesday s'nnight, at a quarter past two P. M. the thermometer . was 99 degrees. On Wednesday, at the same hour, 93 ; and on Thurs day, at one P. M. 99 ; at live P. M. the tame dal, it had sunk to 93; and at eight P. M. only to 80. Ott Friday, at five A. I. it was 65. with sky cloudy, threatening a sudden change. On a registering thermometer, near the Quay, it stood on Thursday at 97. On another, placed in the steeple at St. Peter's Church, the column of air there was 91, and in a garden near RV. 1t) the marshes, contiguous to the town, it was only hi, w hick might be referred to a freer access of air , to eva p oration front the river, or to the different hour in which experiment was made. The heat, at one M. on Thursday, was perhaps the greatest summer heat ever noticed in the Eastern part of our island. hoerhaave concluded, that should the heat of the :Lir ever equal the standard of human heat, tv hich, front the naafis feet ion of the thermometer in his time, he placed at 9a, mstead of 9S the true standard, that man could not remain in ex isteuce. lint this great philosopher, in this, was mistaken : tor in the observations above, it was exceeded by :t degree. In the Last Indies it is frequently at l 0 within doors ; yet man not n nly lives, but lives int health. This happy accommodation ot his system of circumstances is brought about by the simple law of evaporation ; for as the beat acemmtlates, it is carried out by a more copious perspiration, awl the standard is preserved at the f same point.
