FOREIGN NEVVS.
By an arrival at Baltimore, London papers to
the 3d, and Liverpool to the 5th March are recei-
ved. Tliey contain nothing of importance from
England, and but very little from any other quar-
ter. It is said that the Queen has consented to
receive the stipend of 50,0001, voted by parlia-
merit-——to commence from the 5th January. The
crusade of the Holy Alliance against the liberty
of Naples and the rights of man, is progressing.
A noble spirit of patriotism continues to animate
the Neapolitans, and if it is true that the Neapol-
tan army has marched upon Rome, and occupied
that city, it displays an activity and boldness which
promises much. Rome, it is said has been made
a depot for provisions and military stores for the
Atistriati troops ; and these supplies would no
doubt, prove highly acceptable to the Neapolitan
forces.

The Cortes of Spain met on the lst of -.\Iarch,
when the King ylelivered the loll-»win_i;* Address.
Cr'eml(:2m.-72 Lu:/zuzii-s——Stirroutided, for the se-
cond time, by the worthy representations of this
heroic natir,-n, which has given such stroiip; proofs
of the love and at’?-.-ctitin which it bears to n-iy roy-

V.-ith the feelings of my lieart, give thzmlts to Al-
mighty God; who in l‘ittVlTl3'.§ restored to me, by
the valor and constancy of my faithful subjects,
the throne of my aricestors, has itotrclisaletl to

Ti hicli in cozirplizirice with the voice of the nation,
I ll-ave sworn to m;tintain. The welfare and hap-
piness of the people, wbicli Divine Protidencc
has committed to my care, and which, as a sac-
red duty, have always bceiftlic object of my most
‘ ardent wishes, led me to the adoption of a system
of government as anxiously desired by the nation,
and as imperiotisly required by the progress of
the age.——'l‘lie result ias corresponded wito my
wishes, and I have seen, with inexpressible plea-
sure, Siiizlllsli loyalty firmly reunited to the throne
of its lti:\;._=l~, z:i-.-.:iif:~:s:i:ig itself in all parties, and
evincing, by ir:l'.:qLli*.'OCal prov;-fs, its decided at-
r_icliment., wliicli will constitute its future pros-

of respect and love evinced to my person by such

which war occusionsa, witli its coris:er.p,retit disas-

confusion prodticed by the tlilliere it h:.-.bits and

1_ll'gCllC(:;a of the state, 1.-iv(-: not l)\_Fl'llll.l.tt(l me, as

bl‘iif()lTl‘t system of t't.‘Vcll'.lt‘., and one C0llf()l‘l‘Il{§l_)lC
la the new principles lately cstalilished. if
I hope the Cortes in its present session, will
l)esl0'»~ its serious attention on so important an ob-
ject. '1 line is required to bring to perfection this
uesiretl $)‘.‘)lCHl; and to give it effect, the Cortes
will (lL‘p‘.'H.l on my cordial assent; as I shall be
‘ill: or tticir fai'.lil'ul 2lS':l3’l.'ttl1CE. The Secretary
‘of the Treasury will, in proper tit 2.
now governs us, with no other view than to in-
estimate of the expenses necess .-
proacliing year; and those of W‘ i Ma-
rine, will propose the necessity of ' . - ;; the.
ranks ofthe army, according to tl state
of things. In the mean time, I ‘ . inso-
lation to make known for the con Iflllt:
Cortes, the general activity which .,- 3-... vince
itself in all the provinces of the Kingdom, and
which presents to us the progressive improve-
ments which are making in agriculture, the arts
andc0mmerce.—-Our foreign credit is recovering
—-and the powerful means which a nation, gover-
ned by a constitutional King and representative
system of goveriinicnt, can call to her aid, ill
soon restore our internal credit. If the actual
state of Arncrica lias not varied in its relation to
its, war, at least for llic present, has surspended
its desolating ravages on the Co.i.Iu_fir7nu, and the
effect which the late remarkable events on the
Peninsula ought to have on those regions, lead
us to hope they may be ii33)‘dlll restored to the mo-
ther country, and form an iiitcgral part of the
.-ante empire.
\'Vith regard to our diplomatic relations with
other powers, no alteration has taken place since
the last session of the Cortes, haviiig happily
maintainccl with them our frit.ndly intercourse.
The resolution adopted in the Congress of Trop-
patt, and subsequently in that ofL~.iybaclt, by the
s0\'ct'eifg'tis tvfftustria, l‘rtrssia and Russia, to iri-
tcrfeic in the charge of the govezninent of the
two Eicilics, has excited all my solicitude, as well
in consideration of the tiesofconsanguinity, and
my great attacliment to that royal family, as also,
the great interest which I take in the happiness of
that people, and in the independence of those
513135: Whose riglits, according to the laws ofna-
lions, should be religiously respected-—I have
therefore tliought it indispensable to the dignity
of my throne and of the great people whom it is
my glory to govern, to cause to be made ltnown,
that I will not aclariowletlge any measure contrar;.
to the positive principles of the law of nations,
on wliicli are fnt.r2dt~;d the prosperity, independ-
t:1".C: and liberty oftlie people; principles. which
Spain, on her lint t, will always itiriolabiy ooscrve

l bzive the sazislatztioii :0 communicate to the
Cortes, that the Alllc(l .\'ovt--rcigtis in their com-
munications tip to this period, disclaim all iritt:ri-
tions of iillC|i‘t.‘l‘lIi'L)l' in the pt't:sC'.lll governnicnt
of Spain. Tiilictsc are the objects to which I wish
to call the attention of the Cortes, in orrlcr that

they are repeated, it will not be sllt‘pi'i'.s‘it:‘,: if the
Spanish nation finds itself Su‘l‘t‘0Uli(le(l by ianmca-
su.-‘able evils and rnislortunes. I cherish the hope
it will not be so if the Cortes intimately unites
itself to the constitutional king-—-will strive to re-
nie ly the abuses—-—to re-trnitt-. the public opinion,
and counteract the machinations of the malevo-
lent, whose aim is ilil-.ll'Clty and destruction.

tli.tt—-‘ The war against the liberty and indepen-
dence of Naples is likely to agitate the whole

CALCUTTA, Dec. 11.
The following circumstances of an astronomic-
al nature, are filling both the leariied and unlearn-
ed among the Hindoos with the utmost anxiety
and fear, of which incised they have much to en-
dure, which is utterly unl-at-town to tliose who, fa-
vored with the light of Revelation, cast tlicirc-are
upon an alrnigbty, wise and gracious God, with-
out whose permission not even a sparrow can fall
to the grouiid, and who ruletli all tliiiigs after the
cotinsel of his own most gracious \ttill.—(‘.ircum-
stances like these, illustrate the advice given by
the Propiict Isaiah to those who worsliipcd the
living and true God. ‘Fear ye not their fear,
neither be afraid of their terror.’
The Hindoo astrononiers have predicted, that
on the 30th of March, in the ensuing year, the
six planets, will be in the sign Pisces, and that on
. the lst of A;.v.il lbllowliig, which will fall on Sun-
the moon will also ‘lass into the same si in
E5 i
3d of April. This extraordinary conjunction of
seven of the heavenly bodies, has not occurred
within the last hundred years, beyond which no
records of this kind exist--and on this subject the
sliastres say---‘ [fall the seven planets happen to
be in one sign, let it be called Gala Yugo : fa-
mine, geiicral desolation, and the destruction of
the nionarcli will then follow.’ lience from this
unusual assemblage of the planets, the most Icar-
ncd among the natives ttppreliend extraordinary
commotions and altercatioiis in this our earth,
'antltliose among; the rich, who are acquainted
with all these Cit'CHIIlSl.=.tl‘iCeS, are about to perfoi in
various sactilizzcs to avert the calamities which
thus tlir"eaten the whole family of nizin.

A missionary i:i the upper provinces, liappc1‘i-
ing in a recent conversation with a respectable
Brahniun possessed of landed property in the dis-
trict of .luy-a-poora, named dhrce Krishna, to
impugn the merit and etiicacy of the offerings
presented by the l"ilt‘i(lOOS to the manes of their
deceased ar.c..stors, his llindoo friend brought
forward the ilrllor.-.*ing:; anecdote, as a powerful
proof of the doctrine of 'l‘rans'rnigra:,ioii. As he,
Shree-Krislina, '.-as one (lay riding on liorsebaclt
to the town of Amber about six miles from Juy-a~
poora, accompanied by two servants and another
llindoo, [a person sent to invite guests to a wed-
d':rig,] named Bumblioo, a snake suddenly darted
on llumbhoo and bit him in the back, upon which
Sliree-lirisliiia after allixing three bandages to

ting the progress of the poison, conducted him to

'cbarmcr’s whispering something in his ear, he
seemed to revive, and sitting. up, answered his

It is impossible to reflect on these idle stories

I-‘.EVOLU'l"ION IN MEXICO.
A gcntlenizin‘ has arrived at Baltimore, front
llavanzt, bringing with him important informa-
tion relative to the all-aii’s of Mexico, whicli has
been ccmin-.unicated to us by a friend.
The ititt-i'course' between the city of Mexico
and ‘v-'et'a Cruz has been cut oil‘ by the Revolu-
tionists, and Acapulco and San Blas were closely
bcsicgetl.
A Bi'iga(lict' in the Spemisli Army, it appears,
has Illl'0\\‘ll the wliole cnun.‘r_v in comnioti-in-—his
name is ’rfurvz'r.’c. He was rori-iidet‘ed (luring the
late revolution, the most able and daring; ollictzr
in the Royal service. In 1802, he was the great
favorite of the Vice Roy Callija, and employed
on all r.langerons and irnportattt Clllt:!'pllZt.'S. He
is a man of c.\:traordinai‘y talents, and great ac-
qtriremcnts, but as he is a Creole, he was viewed
with a jealous eye by the present Vice Roy Apo-
daca, who it appears, had, in December last, se-
verely rcpriinanded him. Yturvide hadthen un-
der his control a choice reginient of cavalry ; and
no sooner did he declare his intention of drawing;
his sword in favor of the independence of Mexicd,
than they unanimously agrcetl to follow his for-
tunes. in a few days his forces became respec-
table, and he is by the last accounts at the head
\of six or seven thousand men, ofwhom above two
thousand are said to be soldiers, (lt:sel'tct's from
troops of the line. Such was the consternation iii
the city of Mexico, that the (iovernment were
unable to talte any steps to check Ytt‘-.t'vi:le’s ca-
rccr ; all their measures were directed to place
the city in the best possible state of defence, and
it was the opinivm of Vera Cruz, th:.it Ytttrtitle.
had actually cominencetl an attacl; on the city,
and would succeed in taking; it. -
The fornier t'cvclutionir.ts were a_.r_r,ain- rising up
in the Provinces of Cuanazuato, l..a Puebla, and
Cl.r}'.1lC'd, and there is no doubt that the western
ln‘.=t‘-I‘f.{t.‘l'llS, under Gencr'a1(}uerrtro, \\ ere mar-
ching to join Yturvide, which junction, it was
thnuglit at '\’era (,‘ru'/., would be decisive of the
fate of the ltiiigtlom. life may tlierefore expect
in a very short time to receive important intelli-
gt-.-nce from Mexico.
Should the inliabitants of that line country real-
ly succeed in establishing their irrtleperidt-ricc of
Spain. it will be ofmore importance to the Unit-
ed States than all the rest of Spanish America ;
and in such an event, the value-_ ofonr late agquj.
sition of the I"loritlas will soon be developed, not
merely because Pens-Ia-‘cpla is the important key of
the Mexican Culph, but from its 1lllCll02dg(-,‘ and
t:XCCllcl'it harbors it will become an emporium of
far greater con;-equcnce than is generally militi-
pated by our citizens.--- Cum. Jlrlv.
