INVASION OF NAPLES.
It will be seen, by an article in
our preceding columns, that the pas- 1
sage of the PS by -the Austrinns isl
confirmed. Tlie troops of despotism I
liave renewed their crusade against
Liberty, preceded by the manifesto!
of a hoary dotard, who "has added*
fresh instance of apostacy to his for-|
? mer sins agniost his country. Wei
do not expect the resistance of .the F
Neapolitans to be in the first instance
successful? but- we think that the
friends -of Freedom may indulge
confident expectations of a persever
ance which may again shake these]
despotive sovereigns from their de-f
caying thrones. , The interests of the
Prince Kegentof Naples are closely
connected with the freedom and in
dependence of bis country. The
intelligent editor of tlie Champion,!
iusUy remarks, that "the Crown)
"PHnce? tlie present- Regent of Na-|
pies {Francis, 'Duke of Calabria) is]
SiMnected, or accused of being him
?self one of the Carbonari;" and,)
. that on account of tbe known eiimi-J
? Ijr of the Austrian government, and
its rtknoWIVrfged partiality to his
brother, Leopold, Prince of Baler- 1
no, t|ie husband of the Archduchess,
Maria Clemintina, of Austria; the
exclusion of the Urgent from the
eventual succession, is an object me
ditated by the Austrian Emperor. J
"The war, we repeat it, [contin-]
?es the same writer] if once obsti-l
nalely commenced, is not likely to
terminate in Naples ? ami die proba
ble alternative must be the prompt]
submiasion of the Neapolitan He-I
volutiouists, or th? coiniuoiion and
insurrection of the Italian States.?
That ths first is not very probable,
we are tempted to believe? and, if
the suggestions ?\ e have proceeded
*pon are in any degree accurate, n
contrary result w almost inevitable
lor the Prince Urgent of Naples
jftghts .not alone for tlie freedom and
inde|?endence of his country? he
lights for (lie security of his Mtcces
sion to the throne.- The interests of
the Prince and the People are our.
Happy is the country, though men
aced l>y foreign invasion, where this
is the case ? for the circumstances
must indeed tie unfavorable in which
jt is not then invincible." To these
just remarks, we would, had we
???vain some reflec'Inns oti the pre- t
. ..unaied tuue in which t he
* hole o I (lie e nligLtened and iui
proving population <?< the continent
have declared their sentiments of
late years, notwithstanding the ten i
ble acts of tyranny with which it b&&
been attempted to be stifled..
The point is at issue, whether the
fine and intelligent countries of Eu
jmpe shall be reduced under the yoke
of an ignorant and barbarous despo
tism, like t 1ms ancient debasing moil
archies of Assyria, Persia, and Egypt,
or whether they shall be free and in
dej indent states, confederated for
the purposes of liberty, peace and
(he huppiuess of mankind. Indeed,
after the answer of the Emperor of
Austria, to die Address from (he
Professors of the" Lyceum of Lay
bach there x:an be no doubt as to the
nature of the present contest. ? The
conflict is between ignorance and in
formation ? -between Wie absurdities
of antiquity, the bigotry of obsolete
usages, and the expauding intellect
of the present period. This answer
of his imperial majesty U * mynifrs
to which might have proceeded from
the Goddess of Dulnfcss herself, iigj
her war against learning and liberali
ty ? and uuited with other incidents
of the present remarkable period,
brings to our recollection the awful
anticipation of similar times, which
Pope has | Kit in the Mouth of the'
mighty mother of stupidity and ty
ranny :
" O, when shall rise a monarch aU our own,*
And I, a nursing mother, rock the throne;
'Twit ptince.and people close the curtain^
draw, 1
Shade him from 1ight]and cover him (row
hiw ; *
Fatten the courtier, starve the teamed hand
And suckle armies, and drjr-nurse thelaod;
Till Senates nod to lullabies divine,
And all fee sleep, as at an ode of thine."
France has cause io rejoice in her
financial ^iJuattion. Tlw revenue 1
for tfle current year k stated at /37,
000,000, ? tlie expenditure at /80,
763,000, being a surplus of /237,00Q.
Next summer the taxes will be re
duced by ?1,140,000. ? This comfort
able state of the national income
will in Rome measure console the
people for die violations that have
been made hi the charier. If their
jwess is enslaved, and their repre
sentation too aristocratical, their gov
ernment is at least economical, and
iu general couciliatory.

The United States' Loan.? We
understand, (says tin) Georgetown
Messenger, or the 5th in*t.) that the
Loan of four millions, for which the
Secretary of the Treasury recently
issued proposals, has been taken bv
the Bank of the U. States, at a
premium of 5 per cent, hy which the
1 reastiry will e;-iiu forty thousand
dollars. It will l>e recollecled, that
this is pari of the Loan of Five
Millions of Dollars, authorised by
Congress at the last session, and
Unit jhe rate of interest is five ptr
jceut. per annum. Aslt is deemed
necessary to borrow money, it is

ty of the Colchicnm seeds in allaying
irritation of the windpipe, 1 tings, -&c.
and thereby removing the causes
of asthma and cousifttiption, is the
greatest discovery ? that has been
made in medicine. It ap|wars, by
the last number of the Monthly
Gazette -of Health, that ? few doses
of the syrup will eifectually remove
the symptoms of asthma, and arrest
incipient consumption, and in a few
days it will restore the patient to
health t and that the wine of the

speedily cures gout and rheumatism.

They are now at loggerheads; anei,

mode many of the citi&cns of this

*Yeu will see that the people of
this territory are not much pleased
with the Choctaw treaty. The peo

the value of the country ceded by
this treaty.? We known and feel it.
Many hundreds of our citizens will
be reduced to poverty, who, a short
time since, were securely reposing;
in ease and plenty. This will be
th* severest blow ever felt by the ter

many years before she can recover
from it. At the least calculation,.
