The Parliament has addressed an ener getic and mewing proclamation to the army * All persons who arrive from Italy awe. , Ving that tt is in the greatest ferment; and already the constitetion of Spain is openly spoken of. It' the Neapolitans resist only one mouth, there is no doubt that the North of Italy will rise. People's minds seem generally prepared for this. What is certain is, that several Austrian °Rivers have passed through Milan under strict arrest ; and it is not doubted but that it is on account of opi. nions which they have maniksted. Jt is also said that the vanguard of General W. Pepe has beaten a regiment of Hungarian hussars, and that they have sustained great loss. " It appears that Gen. Frimont temporises, waiting for the reinfOrcements which are necessary for him. —lt is said that a great many persons have been arrested. The plan of the conspirators was to form a Constitutional Government, and to revolutionize Lombardy, in order to make a diversion to impede the military operations of the Austrians against Naples. MARCH 12—To-flay before mass, the Chevalier de Bardaxi d'Azara presented to the King, in a pub lic audience, the letters of his Majesty the King of Spain, which accredit him as Envoy Extraordinary, and Minister Plenipotentiary to his Majesty. Our accounts from the frontiers of Spain say that the exaggerated system of prohibition of all foreign goods has caused smuggling to be carried to such an extent, that contraband manufactures and produce are fur more abundant in Catalonia than at any for mer period. The news of a commotion at Baru lona, the object of which was to oblige foreigners to quit Spain, is entirely destitute of foundation. The events in Spain and Naples have caused no decline in the commercial arfairs of Lyons. The usual monthly estimate is 600 to 680 bales of : last month it was 1,000 bales, though it was a month of 28 days only. MMAN, M•actt 4.—The division of Walmoden, which has arrived along the coast of the Adriatic at Serravalle, come into communication on the 21st, near Foligno, with the van guard of the General in -chief, Baron Frimont. his vanguard, thus re inforeal, advanced on the 24th towards Spoleto. The division of Stutterheim remains at Civita Castellana, to cover the right.

The Neapolitan General, Filangicri, *as near Fondi with a small corps; General Arcovita at San Germano, and Ceprani and Pepe near Acqni. On the 20th 3,000 men of the corps of Pepe, with nine pieces of cannon, appeared at Itieti, after push ing their advanced guard as few as Terni. On the red another advanced guard of 1,000 men (as the first was) appeared at Monte San Vito, towards Spoleto. This corps had come from Aquila by the way of Leonessa. The Neapolitans, who had advanced upon Fermo and Ascoli, have &lien back, on the 20th, upon Every thing gives ground to believe that very few military events will occur upon the frontier of Ter racina, but that important affairs rill very syon take place in the Abruzzi. 'I he Neapolitans have con centrated their principal forces on this side. Extract of a private letter, dated March 12. c• Travellers just arrived from !Lily state, that they had been overtaken by u courier, who told them that a battle had token place at the foot of Mount Broxo, near Terni, and that the Neapolitans had gained a victory." - VIENNA, Faa. 28.—Letters from Laybach an nounce that there i. a certain stagnation in the negotiations at this moment, which is attributed to a note that the Court of London has caused to be delivered to the Congress. It is asserted that the present state of Spain and Portugal has been the object of several conferences between the Prince de Metternich and M. de Capo d'lstria. TVRIN, NlAncti G.—The Neapolitan General Carraeosa arrived at Tend, in the Itoman States, on the :25th of February, at the head of a body "of light troop:. ile there required, it is said, 80,000 ra- I THE NATIONAL REGISTER tions as well ftr the service of his own army as to exhaust, the country previous to the arrival of the Austrians, whom he seemed disposed to harass.dur iog their march upon the Abruzzi.

MADRID, MARCH . —The number of partizans of the Institiu !.• reuse prodigiously, particu larly in the tr:., : ies of sockty, who find no thing but advantages nom them. The troops of the line and the national guards are animated with the most lively enthusiasm for the constitution ; whence its enemies seeing themselves deprived of hope, and not being able to make any general euterpriso, are reduced to partial attempts by isolated means. Within the last few days four persons attacked the brave Colonel Torrijos ; but he put three of them to light with his sword ; and the fourth, after been wounded, begged his life, offering to declare the names of his accomplices, arida him who insti gated them. The Cortes and the Government are taking the most energetic measures to repress such attempts. _ . , MADRID, MARCH 3.—On the 25th ultimo, the Cortes held their last preparatory committee, after which a deputation repaired to the palace to an nounce to his Majesty that the Cortes would open its sitting s on the Ist of March, and to enquire whether te King's intention was to be present in prson. His Majesty received the deputation with his accustomed kindness : and answered that he would be present at the opening of the Cortes on the I st, at ten in the morning. On the Ist of March, the King, attended by a strcag escort, repaired to the hail of the Cortes, and opened the sitting in the following speech :- 6. Gentlemen Deputies—ln seeing myself surrounded, for the second time, by the worthy Representatives of that heroic nation, wiach has given w many proofs of its love and its attachment to my Boyal Person, my grateful heart cannot be prerenteafrom rendering tha4s to the AbuFlity, who has ~,,sited me on the th7one of my ancestors." His Majesty then announces that the Minister of finances will lay the budget of expenditure for the enseing year beiine theta; and congratulates the Curies on the rapid revival of all the arts of peace— on the restoration of credit abroad—on the cessation of hostilities in America—and the prospect of the colonies being re-united to the mother country as integM parts of the same empire. " But," continues his Majesty, " I hope the Cortes, in fulfilling their important functions, will be persuaded of the necessity of taking prompt measures to tepress the audacity of those who, encouraged rather than awed by moderation of system, dare to trouble the new 'paler of things, sad that they will at the same time give to the Executive govern ment the nccesssry force which public tranquillity demands under existing circumstances, and without which it is impossible to heal the evils which have for so many ages afflicted the nation. " The stare of our diplomatic relauons with the other Powers continues as it was. We happily preserve with them those re lations of amity and good faith which existed at the period of the preceding Sitting. •"flie ratification which I have thought it proper to give, with the authority of the Cones, to the Tleaty fo: tile cession of the Florid:.s, and the fixation of the limits with the United States of America, has taken place within too recent a period to allow of this Government having, as yet, had any advice of its hcing received. '• The resolution taken in the Congress of Troppan, and con firm d in that of Lay latch by the Sovereigns of Austria, Prussia, and Russia, of interfering with the change of political regime established in the Two Sicillies ha, excited all my solicitude, as well from consideration for the Royal Family of that Kingdom, united to mine by the ties of blood, as front the interest which I feel Mr the welfare of the people of the 'f wo Sicillts, and liecith.se it imports much to the independence of Nowa, that the sacred rights of nations and their Princes should be regularly respected. I have thought it indispensable to the honour of my throne, to the dibmity of th., great nation which I glory in governing, to make it known through the proper channels, mat I will recognise nothing which nosy be contrary to that positive public law, upon which are founded the liberty, independence, and prospatity of nations ; a principle which, on her part, Spain will inviolably respect towards milers. I have the satisfaction to announce to the Cortes that the Allied Sovereigns, according to ad the com munications which I have received up to the present moment, have, and arc agreed, to respect this principle, in as tar as re gards Spain ' tiuch being the different objects which the King hopes time Cortes will take into their consideration, his Majesty proceeds, after some complimentary ex pressions, to allude to the insults offered to his royal person, and the attempts made to seduce the credulous into a belief that he entertains at heart views opposed to the c.:istitw system. •' I must, not this day, conceal from the Cortes, as principally charged with preserving the inviolability rp hich it wishes to be observed towards a Constitutional King, that these insults would not have been repeated if the Executive Power had displayea ati the ener4 which time Constitution prescribes, and which tlae Cortes desire. The want of firmness, and the inactivity of many Authorities, have eau, .:I the renewal of such excesses ; and if trey cominue. it will not tr! astoniahing,should the Splash nation be involved in evils cold nasiortunts innumerable.' His Majesty concludes by an earnest exhortation to the Cortes to co-operate with him in consolidating that system of things which they had proposed to themselves, and to which he protests, in the face of the nation, 111.4 resolution to adhere. The president replied, according to the custom, in vague and general terms. After the departure of the King, Count Turreno proposed that a conunittee should ha named to draw up an answer to the speceh of the King. It was necessary, he said, to satisfy Europe and the nation on the points which his Majesty had treated of; it was necessary that all the world should know what the Natioaul Con it ress thinks of the events of Naples and the congress of Laykich. A committee of five members was accordingly airpointed. On the same evening, the whole of the minister:, with the exception of the minister of marine, sent in their resignation ; and the principal clerks, who were charged par interim with the di thrent po)/(- fetielles, also sent in their's next morning.

Wi we received two days ago of General San Martin having, on the Ist of November, destroyed Geueral Serna's army, of 14'00 men, near Lima, having drawn them into an ambuscade of half Isis army, by feigning a retreat; and leaving sonic trilling baggage, &e. to the royal army. We heard this front the General Gueines, Governor of Sahel, who had it from the Governor of Atacama, near Ltma, and it was supposed the patriot army would immediately cuter Lima, as the Viceroy had retired to the fortresses of Callao. Official accounts are homily expected. Our letters from Chili say nothing on the subject, but the express who brought them informs us that the hells were ringing %lieu. he I ift Santiago on ac count of the above news. The Spanish brig Lit war, with the "Deputies, has sailed witbout busing lauded; the Governor here refusing to treat a ith theta mass they had powers to acknowledge lite independence of South A suet Ica. We have peace at last with the Montoneras, but the Indians have advanced all along the ft wilier till aithin 30 leagues of this town, committing the must horrid outrages. The Governor has guile out to drive them to their pampas, and chastise them sevcrely." Letters to the I 4th of January from Bahia state, that the inhabitants of that- place had applied to the governor, to know if he was willing to grant ;hem a constittition similar to that which has been declared in Portugal; he replied, that he did not possess the power to make any alteration in the form of the government, but Coat he would send to Rio Janeiro fur instructions how to act. This reply was far from giving complete satisfaction to the inhabitants, who slimed every disposition to enforce the object in view before the return of the mes senger. The fact relative to the apprehension of vagrants, in St. George's parish, was stated, not as an instance of defect in the law, but in proof of the inactivity of the parochial police, without whose zealous co operation the object of the society for the suppression of rnendicity can never be accomplished. Mr. liar herd stated otherfacts in proof of defficts in the law ; for instance, difficulties the society had met with in legally disposing of orphans, blacks, and foreigners, who have served in the British navy and army ; and above all, prisoners on their discharge from confine went, pennyless, and prone to crime.
