14$ PRIMATE CORRESPONDENCR. NAPLES, APRIL 28.—The Austrians are making every preparation fur a long stay in the country of their Neapolitan aides. The military direction of the army is selecting the troops which are thought best adapted to bear the climate, and most likely to accommodate themselves to the habits and manners of the inhabitants: the rest are sent off to the north of Italy. Most of the officers, and a considerable portion of the soltliets who now remain, can speak Italian. As many as cannot find room in the clif f -rent castles or barracks of the capital are quartered 0,1 the inhabitants fur free lodgings only, but are de.ired to pay for every thing that they require. Their discipline has hitherto been very strict, and, with few exceptions, has given no cause thr civic complaints. In the meantime the Neapolitan army is to be entirely dissolved, with the exception of three regiments of guards; and the Austrians, while they perform the duty. arc to receive the pay of the disbanded troops. A decree to this effect will make its appearance in a few days, though no formal command was necessary to disband troops already disbanded by their own fears and treachery of their Chiefs. To pay the Austrian army of oc cupation the necessary funds will ba raised in a mode the least calculated to create offence, or even to excite attention. The word contribution is avoided as much as possible, and the nominal King and Go vernment of Naples will apparently conduct the finance operations, and hand over the money to their allies, without seeming to act under their direction. Yesterday an operation of this kind was concluded between the Neapolitan Provisional Government and the houses of Rothschild, Haguerman of Genoa and Paris, Appelt of Naples, and several other bankers oless note in this capital. These bankers have contracted for a loan of six millions of threats of capital inscriptions in the great book at five per cent. The new annual interest for this newly cre ated debt of 6,000,000 will of course be 300,000 ducats. The ducat of Naples is about 4 francs and /10 cents. For the security of the contractors, and the liquidation of the debt, the Government has as signed certain domains, the value of which is equal to the capital advanced, and the rents of which are equivalent to the interest to be paid. These are to be annually sold in the proportion of 5 per cent. on the amount of the interest or the annuities created, and thus a fund will be formed for the liquidation of the capital. The contractors, of course, know better their own interest than to proclaim imme diately at what rate they have concluded the loan, or, in other words, what money they have advanced for the stock created. Report says that they have contracted for it at the rate of 64 per cent. but this is very unlikely, u the 5 per cents. are now only 62. However this may be, when we consider the trifling amount of the Neapolitan debt at present existing, the small proportion which it bears to the existing revenue, and the guarantee of the Holy Alliance for the punctual repayment of the moneyed interest who facilitate their operations, we have rea son to believe that the contractors have made an advantageous bargain, and that they will sell their stock at a considerable premium. I have alluded to the trifling amount of the Neapolitan debt, and as the finance accounts submitted to Parliament in Demolisher last are now betbre me, I may, to save the trouble of reference, mention what it is. The consolidated debt inscribed in the Feat book of the king /loss, consists of perpetual rents and pensions or life annuities.— In 1813 the perpetual rents amourted to 940,000 ducats. la the course of the last five year they have beia increased by Making in July last a total of 1,420.000 Individuals, and three companies of capitalists. possess 1,0ag,050 of this amount ; the remainder is the profit of various roblic administrations, and of a great number of charitable samblishments which lent their capital to the state. The amount of pensions in May, IBIS, was -1,044,121 The addition in Use last five years 338,654 ----- Making a total of 1,38:,775 Of these annuities a portion must be felling in every year. The suppression of the monasteries, which created 600,000 for the support of the monks and the retirement of civil and military officers, is the cause of this amount. The floating debt would occasion, if funded, an inscription of about 500,000 o: rents, making the Neapolitan debt in all some what more than 3,000,00 of ducats in rents, or 60,000,000 nominal capital, supposing the half of it were not as it really is, only life annuities. The annual revenue of the kingdom, by the :ame finan cial statetpents, is made to amount to upwards of 20,000,000 of ducats. - - In 1819 it is estimated at 20.013,433 And in 1820 at The estimated expenditure exceeded the income by nearly a million. More than six millions of the revenue arose from customs. The interest of the Neapolitan debt is thus only about a si.euth Of tic revenue, while in smite countries that might be mentioned, it amounts to more shun two thirds. But Neapolitan credit is not like English ; and the five per cents are at di, while ours arc dbu , e ;05.. --- THE NATIONAL REGISTER DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL. HAGUE, MAY 2.—The Gazette of this town contains the following article:—" !t is asserted on good authority, that a Concordate has been con cluded between the Holy See and the Court of Prussia ; and that it was signed on the 231 of :March last, by Cardinal Gonsalvi and his Highness Prince Hardetiburg, in the name of their respec tive Sovereigns. Accori'.ir•g to this Concordate the ancient bishoprics are established by the government as well as the chapters and seminaries. The bi shopric of Aix-la-Chapelle is suppressed ; but there is to be an archiepiscopal see erected at Cologne.— The Concordate further stipulates the free and pub lic exercise of the Catholic religion, un unfettered episcopal jurisdiction, as well as the faculty hav ing recourse to the court of Rome." The news has been received officially by the papal nuncio at Ihlunich. Among the articles of this treaty we observe, that the Prince of Holiensillern, bishop of Eamcland, who belongs to the royal family of Prussia, is no minated archbishop of Cologne ; that the bishops are to be elected by the chapters, and that the en dowments of the bishoprics, cathedrals, and semi naries are to be in landed estates. BausseLs, MAY s.—We read in one of our jour nals that Mr. Six, late minister of the finances, has had the noble confidence to tell his majesty, that the new project of a law on the indirect taxes was as contrary to the true interests of his majesty as to to that of his people; and that Mr. Appelius, the director-general, has held the same language. HEROIC EXPLOIT OF LORD COCIIRANE. -.....- Extract of a letter from an officer on board the United States' frigate Macedonian, dated Callao, Nov. 11, 1810: " A few days since, General San Martin arrived of this place with 5000 troops, convoyed by tour frigates and some smaller vessels of war, under Admiral Cochrane, having previously made an ineffectual attempt to penetrate into the interior act Ptsco. owing to the natural defences which the mountains and defiles afforded to the Spaniards, who in open grotinfs would be by no means formidable to their more vigorous enemy. After showing this force off this port, the Patriotic General of acted a landing at the small town of Ancon, about ten leagues to the northward of Lima, where, I understand, he is carrying on the war with vigour. As gallant and well executed a feat of valour was a few days performed by Lord Cochrane, as was ever witnessed. It was the cuuing out of a Spanish frigate, manned by 150 sailors, and ago artillerymen, front under several batteries, mounting iu all in not less than too brass pieces of cannon, averaging eighteen pounders, besides four vessels of war, mounting each twenty long guns. It was performed by eight boats, containing each twenty men, in the following manner :—About half-past twelve o'clock, on the night of the tith instant , his lordship pulled into the harbour at the head of his party, (having previously obtained the watch word by surprising the guard-boat) to board the Es meralda, of forty guns; himself, with his little son by his side, being the first man on the deck. Alter a bloody conflict of about half an hour, (for the Spaniards fought with desperation) they succeeded in obtaining possession of the spar-deck, and immedi ately made sail upon toe ship; the people that were driven from off the forecastle into the water having cut her cables, in hopes that she would drive on shore. The gun and birth decks, how ever, as we have since heard, were kept possession of by the Spaniards for as much as half an hour, upwards of 100 men being killed and as many wounded. As soon as we perceived that the Esmeralda was likely to fall foul of us, we slipt our moorings and made sail ; the captured frigate keeping wi.hin about 100 yards of us, and hoisting the same lights that we bad previously put up, in order to make it dubious to the soldiers on shcre which of the two vessels to fire at. This well adapted ruse de guerr e had the desired effect; for the shot flew about our heads, and cut away our cross jack-yard, and a great deal (dour running rigging. After sustaining their tire about a quarter of an hour, we got out of the reach of their shot." Private accounts from Constantinople, dated April Y, state, that the Turkish Government were making extraordinary exertions to frustrate the views of the insurgents. The prejudices of the populace of Con stantinople, and their hatred to the Greeks, had been successfully worked upon ; and great numbers of them were induced to take up arms in defence of the menaced Crescent. The arming of them led to much disorder, and as they were indulged in con siderable licence us the reward of their seal, they regaled themselves plentifully in the punch shops, deterring payment however, till more peaceable times. Many persons were stopped and robbed by them in the street, and they even entered the shops to exact contributions. These excesses, however, were in a great degree suppressed; and our informant says— " After all, things are better than could have been expected ; and unless the insurgents obtain some decided success, the worst is, in my opinion, over." He afterwards adds, " that there is no doubt here that unless the Greeks succeed in this enterprise, they will be thrown back forty years at least." By late accounts from Vienna, we learn that her Excellency Lady Vane Stewart, the British ambas sadruss, was safely delivered, on the 21th of April, of a fine boy, who is heir to the large estates in the county of Durham. We are happy to tide, that her excellency and the infant are doing well. A tbrgei y to the amount, it is said, of 10,0001. on the Bank, has been discovered, attended with some very curious circumstances. A pee on suspected of being the principal iii the business has been in con finement; but in endeavouring to escape he fell anti broke one of his arms, and otherwise injured himself so much, that doubts are entertained of his recovery. PORT OF LONDON SOCIETY. The Anniversary Meeting of the port of London for the promotion of religion tumor seamen, was held on Monday at the City of London 'tavern. About 100 ' persons, principally females, were present. Lord Gasitatart took the Chan., and opened the hu sine's of the day in a congratulatory speech. The report of line last year's proceedings began by ad verting to the numerous and important religious meetings which were held dining the present month, which to the Church had become of late years an interesting one, and pregnant with events, compared with which, to the great religious community, the revolutions of empires, the councils of kings, and the debates of senates were trilling and unimportant. The report went on to state, that the generosity of corporate bodies, as well as onlividoils, haul not decreased during the last year. lit October last all intimation was given to the Society by his Excellency Baron de Just, the Ambassador limn the King of Saxony, tuat lie haul a cominillliCillioll to inske to the Society. Accord ingly his Excellency was received with proper respect on board the floating chapel by the committee, when hat ing seen the accommodations for worship, which affarded him the greatest satisfaction, he presented a letter, ex pressive of his King's bight interest in the welfare of seamen, and contenting grateful acknowledgments for the services rendered by this country to Germany, when desolated by war, and that the zeal manifested in the ! allevi• • of the distresses of Saxony were still fresh in his recollection. His excellency presented, by order of his Majesty, a donation of one lion.ned Saxon thallers (the Saxon thaller is thirty shillings), from the Burgo master and Magistrates of Leipzig. Within the Vast tear successful exertions had been made in different parts of the country to forward the objects of the society, and amongst others, Liverpool, Hull, Bristol, and Leith might be distinguished. Similar exertions had been making in North America, that had beet' crowned with great success, and places for worship had already been opened at New York, Poiladelphia, Charleston, and Boston. The report gave a dittoing account of the effects which the promotion of religion haul haul in many i.istances on the crews of vessels hi the Port of London, and the progress .hat religmit was making amongst them. It instanced that in the ships bound to David's Straits and other quarters divine service was regularly performed. The'report was received throughout with applause, and agreed to utuattimously. The Rev. ROWLAND HILL combated the opinion which be said had gone abroad, that the promotion of religion amongst seamen would tend to diminish their courage. and asked whether seamen would he less brave when they were to consider every bullet as a wel come summons to take him from a troublesome world to one of happiness. He represented with much force the claims which seamen had upon the country. that their moral and religious welfare should be attended to, and the effects which might he expected when every seamen should become, as it were, a niissionary. A series of resolutions were then entered into, after many very effective speeches had been made. 'l'llauks were voted to the chairman, and the meeting separated, after a liberal collection had been made. Sir Francis Burdett left his apartments in the King's Bench at an early hour on Monday morning, and arrived at his own house to breakfast, in a pri vate carriage, attended by a single friend. The worthy baronet, we are hippy to learn, has expe. rienced no injury to his healthfrom his confinement. A considerable falling off in the revenue the pre sent quarter, ending the sth ofJuly next, compared with the corresponding quarter of last year, is anti cipated. A considerable quantity of specie has been ex changed for Bank -notes, since the Bank resumed cash payme its. The demand fur sovereigns on the first emission will of course be to a large amount, as several of the country banks have received a ripply, besides that which the London bankers have obtain ed for their other connections. The anxiety to pro cure sovereigns will, however, it is supposed, dimi nish daily, though many of them will disappear, from being confined to the coffers of the hoarders, and also in consequence of those persons who visit the continent, taking with them as much of the gold coin of the realm as the l tit permits. The resump tion of cash payments has had a sensible effect on the money market. Exchequer bills are at par, and five per cent. can be had fur money. So far from there being a scarcity of money stock, as stated in some of the papers, it could have been had on 'l'hur'- day in abundance; and those wha are the most con versant in these matters do not speculate on a rise of the funds. Mr. Kean had his farewell benefit at the New York theatre on the Gth ult. on which occasion he played Jolter, fur the first time. This concluded his engagement and last appearance in that city. He was announced to perform the character of the Duke of Gloucester, in this tragedy of Rickard Me Third, at the Philadelphia theatre, on the 9th. d A considerable quantity of bonded corn was shipped for Naples in the course of last month from Liverpool. A party of convicts were sent off from Newgate on Wednesday morning early, in the usual caravan, for Portsmouth, under the necessary escort. When changing hones at Cobham, one of the thieves con trived to purhin the great coat o one of the post. boys, who followed and succeeded in recovering his property. tS
