FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, Dec. I6.—Lord Stewart, the English Ambassador, at Vienna, is replaced by Mr. Wellesley Pole, the brother of the Duke of Wellington. Letters from Genoa of the 6th of December say —" We have received direct intelligence, by sea, from Sicily. Several cantons of the island are in such a state of agitation as to cause apprehensions for the future. The levy of imposts has produced scenes of bloodshed at Caltanisetta: two companies 4:f Neapolitan infantry have been entirely destroyed by a levy en masse of the whole canton. The Go vernment is ping to send more forces ; but it is feared that their presence will only serve to propa gate insnrrection. " If credit is to be given to the Journal du Soir, the sum of eight millions has been lent by certain capitalists in Paris on the diamonds lately arrived from Naples. That sum," says the same paper, " has just been forwarded in money for that kingdom " " The Correctional Tribunal was again occupied yesterday in the cue of Sir James Crawford, charged with having, in certain compositions, printed and published, calumniated and defamed the Duke de Grammont and the the Duke de Guiche. The Baronet, having in his hand a large packet of papers, again urged his right to defend himself. On the remark of the President, that M. Dupin had been assigned at the preceding audience for the defence, he protested against the measure and withdrew. M. Dupla declared the defendant had not fur nished him with the necessary documents and instructions' in the cause ; and for this reason he could not tale upon himself the arduous duty as signed to him at that moment. MM. Berryer and Chattier advocates for the noble appellants, addressed the Court against the Cheva lier's proposition. The Tribunal, after hearing the King's Advo cate, relieved the accused from the exception which he had taken against the judgment of condemnation, and ordered that he should withdraw his case, re serving to the parties the right of appealing against the libels published and distributed since the pre ceding sentence. Among the latter obnoxious publications is a memoir, circulated to day in profusion in the saloon ' of the Court, by Mr. Manuel, Sir James Crawfurd's Secretary. The title of the libel is, "The Case of Sri James Crawford, published as a preliminary to the trial for bigamy, which he is about to institute against the Doi-dig:la Lady Crawfurd, Anjou -street, No. 21, St. Honore. Sir James in ►tepping into his carriage, cried out Five la Chattel Itoxa, DEC. 3.—The Prince and Princess of Denmark arrived here yesterday from Naples. Letters from Upper Italy mention, that the Aus trian Government has lent a considerable quantity of necessaries into the fortresses. Among other things, a very large quantity of biscuit, far the use of the army in camp, has been made. The last news front Epirus contradicts the report that Ali Pachs had escaped from his fortress. On the contrary, he is hemmed in more closely than ever, and his capture or death is momentarily j expet MADRID, Dec. 5 —The municipality has caused to be printed and promulgated an address which etety presented to the King on the 22d ult., in which,' after expressing to his Majesty their satisfaction et the measures which be has authorised to be en. forced against all those who endanger by their exces ses the public peace, they add :—" All the troubles which have taken place tend to prove, incontrovert ibly, that the inhabitants of this capital are firm in their dauntless resolution to die rather than suffer any attack upon the social edifice, whose bases rest upon the sacred code which your Majesty has sworn to maintain ; but toe doubts which afflict and tor ment them, as to the true intentions of your Majesty, are the only real cause of all these agitations.' After stating that agents are active in exciting distrust and hostility towards the Constitutional Government, by proclaiming that the King is secretly averse from its measures ; and that to defy its authority and obstruct its course is conformable to the wishes of his Majesty. the address continues— H 1%4 is the origin of the evil. The remedy is obvious. In your palace, in your chapel, in your stables, in the royal residences, exist those who shelter themselves under a talse pretence of absolute devotion to your perso►►; they arc the authors of these commotions—at leant the people accuse them as such y and, as long as frets do not prove that your Majesty regards as your persoeul enemies the ene mies of the New Institutions, it will be impossible for the authorities, however zealous they may be, to prevent disorders. " Finally, Sire, you must Le informed that, to the day of your return to the f apital, Ferverse ii;;cut4 il.stributed money to mislead the people, amid to engage them to destroy the Coristitutioile! s) stein THE NATIONAL REGISTER in invoking the name of your Majesty ; we, fore supplicate that you will take prompt measures to undeceive those who disturb public tranquillity in the name of the King." FRANKFORT, DEC. I0.—(By an eatraordinary channel). —We have just learnt that the Baron de Schrant, the Austrian Minister, who habitually re siles at Berne, has received an extraordinary courier front Vienna, with despatches of a nature to import. ant that he instantly set oft' for Lausanne. It appears that this Minister is employed to mnke a diplomatic communication, which concerns all the status of the Swiss Confederation. The passage of the Balgic, French, and English couriers, both for Vienna and Troppau, has been very frequent for some days past. PARIS, Dec. 18.— Yesterday, ut two o'clock, the deputies of the departments assembled in the usual hall for the sittings. M. Angles, president by se niority, drew lots for the grand deputation of 25 members to wait upon his Majesty the day of the royal sitting. A despatch which has reached Paris, dated Bay onne the 12th inst. says—" We have received to days's courier the following decree, which has been enacted by the permanent deputation of the Cortes, and sanctioned by the King:— " All proprietors of foreign cotton goods now in the Peninsula are respired to make declaration there 'if to the customs of authorities, within fifteen days from the 16th Dec, of the present year (1820 ) These goods will then be stumped and deposited where the said authorities shall appoint until ex portation. Such as shall not be declared within the period of fifteen days will be confiscated to the good of the nation. Four months are granted to the proprietors to export them to foreign states, or to Spanish colonies, where they may be sold. After the delay granted, such as are not exported will be peremptorily confiscated." This decree has excited great alarm amongst the Spanish and French merchants in Bayonne. It will increase the number of discontented throughout Spain. Intelligence from Cadiz, dated the Ist inst. states —During the last three days several tumultuous assemblages have taken place: to-day it has been so considerable that we have very serious alarms, espe. sully as we have heard the infuriated throng cry out for the trial of those who are implicated in the bloody carnage of the 10th of March last, whom they loaded with horrid execrations ; they also de mand the instant dismissal of several magistrates and subordinate authorities, whose characters are irreproachable. The troupe have been called out, and a number of the rioters dispersed. At the departure of the courier order seemed on the point of being restored, and we hope that the presence of an imposing tiirce will suffice to maintain tran , trinity. Roue, Dec. 4.—A My of light appears to dissi pate the uncertainty in which we have been for some time, as to the result of the grand discussions relative to the political atfairs of our neighbours, the Neapolitans, and we are allowed to perceive u hope of the continuation of peace. A number of strangers have arrived here. We feel already the influence of the liberty of the press in Naples. The journals of that country are not aUowed in the coffee-houses ; but they are read in the libraries, and, though printed on good paper, they are next day illegible. MADRID, Dec. 7.—Barcelona has been lately much agitated. The Archbishop of Valencia arrived . at Barcelona, to embark for Italy, on the day that the people and the garrison were declaring their attachment to the Constitution, on account of the late proceedings at Madrid. As soon as his arrival was known, a vast multitude assembled before his lodging, and it was with difficulty that he was con ducted un board a Genoese vessel, which immedia ately sailed for Civita-Vecchia. VIENNA, Dec. 7.—The Austrian Observer of this day contains the following article relative to the kingdom of the Two Sicilies According to advices from Naples, dated the 22d ult. the Government has been compelled, by the embarrassed state of its finances, to suspend the ex tra pay which it had granted to the troops. This measure was soon followed by consequences which it was easy to anticipate. The 12th regiment of infentry manifested its disaffection by acts of insu bordination. Several of the men resolved to quit their colours, and return to their homes ; and it was found expedient to send this regiment to the province of Abruzzu. 011 their route thither they committed fresh excesses, and an officer was shot by his own men at Zeano. It appears that the authorities have been hitherto successful in prevent ing more serious commotions, which the spirit and example of this regiment might have led to. The recruits, huwei.er, refuse to march to the appointed rendezvous; and some of Omni were seen by travellers, cm the road between Ilri and Fondi, ricorted to their several corps, 11mA:oiled. " Confusion and anarchy continue to Lialic fearful progress even in the town of Naples. Pillage , murder, insubordination, and want of respect to the authorities, are more than ever the order of the day. No one can puss in the streets by night without exposing his life. The Carbonari continue to ex. ercisc boundless influence. They openly defy the Government and Parliament : the members of both have their poniards to fear, it' they attempt to resist their will. M. Zurlo, Minister of the Interior, is under indictment, because he has been charged by them with having infringed an article of the con. stitution. MIRO/BURG, Dec. 9.—Count Pozzo di Borgo, Russian Minister at the Court of France, returns immediately to Troppau to the Emperor Alexander, whom he will afterwards accompany to Vienna. This n:inister has with him but a single secretary and two domestics. To day the Emperor of Austria will quit Trop pm, hut the hereditary Prince and Princess of Saxe Weimar will remain here until the departure of the Emperor Alexander. We are assured that they will teso visit Vienna. it has been remarked that the Russian Ministers at Troppatt have had frequent confitrences with Prince liardenberg. Letters from Leipsic inform UR that the fair of the new year promises to be a favourable one, and that the Polish and Russian strangers are expected there. ST. MARY ISLINGTON. The Address to the Queen from this parish, of which we inserted a copy last week, we& presented to her Majesty on Monday lust; to which her Ma. jesty returned the following must appropriate and gracious Ansswer : " The inhabitants of St. Mary. Islington. are requested to accept my unfeigned thanks for this loyal sad dutiful Address. •• While the generous blood that animates the enlightened sons of Albion. circulates in their veins, their sympathies will railways be alive to the sufferings of every victim of injustice or oppression s though. therefore, my enemies should renew their persecution, I am convinced that it will only redouble the intel lectual and moral energy by which I have been hitherto upheld, and cause me to find a rampart of security in the affections of the People. •• Though the People are still forbidden to pray for me ac• cordi to the forms of the National Ritual. lam solaced by the reflection that I am not forgotten in th.: devout sighs of their breasts, or in the secret worship of their hearts. •• I am not incapable of apprec.ining hew much I owe to the Press ; or rather to that knowledge which the Press has so widely diffused. The liberties of mankind can never Le extended beyond the confines of their Intellectual illumination—where knowlixlge ends, shivery begins." The Address was presented by the Chairman, George Longster, Eng. of Highbory, accompanied by the Committee and • deputation of the Ladies and Gentlemen of the Parish, in about twenty barou ches and four. The Address was most emphatically read by John Greig, Esq. of Paradise House, and the answer by Mr. Alderman Wood. On their return the Committee, with abont thirty of their select friends, dined at Canotiboey House (Copt. Longster in the Chair), and passed the evening very pleasantly and convivially. BIRMINGHAM LOYALTY. — A LOYAL meeting has been smuggled in Birmingham. At this we do not wonder—we well remember the riots in that town, where, to say the least, the then Magistrates did not attempt to prevent the destruction by fire of many persons' houses, which fell victims to the loyal cry of " Church and King," because their owners hap,. pened to possess too much conscience to subscribe to what they did not believe, and were therefore included in the proscribed class of " DISSENTEkIi" the philosophical apparatus of the immortal Palen . - LET became also a prey to the ravages of these Barbarians, and at the conclusion one of the Ma- Irides exclaimed to the mob around him in front of the Mad in Temple-row, "There are gooml lads— go home now—you have done enough "—The present race appears not to have deteriorated—the rising generation of Birmingham will not proclaim itself bustard to its progenitors of 1791, and doubtless they would embrsce with ecstacy another occasion of sacrificing on the shrine of their impious malignity the numerous and highly respectable body of men included in the class of Protestant Dissenters in that town; but thanks to the Acts of the present Minis ters, the eyes of the lower class are too much opened to the oppressions they labour under to be made again the wicked tools of wickeder principals—the cry of "Church and King" will never more be the watch-word fir the destruction of the property of a worthy and unoffending community. A letter from Madrid says—" We learn by advices from Caraccas of the 12th October, that Santa Fe had risen against Bolivar, because he did not accept the proposals of conciliat . made by General Morin.; the latter took advantage of this circumstance, to attack the insurgents by sea and land, and with such success, that Bolivar being to tally defeated, sent a dispatch to Morino, offLring to recognise our wise Constitution, and to carry on the negociatious teont St. Fernando d'Apure, where his head quarters would be on the ;25111 October. It was agreed to answer Bolivar, that hostilities would be continued till be ratified his proposals from ttle above named place, rt. Fernando d'Al use. 41S
