t4A PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. NAPLEig, Aram 28.—The Austrians are main every preparation for a long stay in the country of their Neapolitan allies. The military direction of the army is selecting the tioops 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 onieers, and a comiderahlc portion of the soldiers who now remain, can speak Italian. As many as cannot find room in the dif flTent castles or barracks of the capital are quartered on the inhabitants for free lodgings only, but are desired to pay for even• thing that they require. Their discipline has hitherto been very strict, and, with few exceptions, has given no cause for 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, are to receive the pay of the disbanded troops. A decree to this effect will make its appearance in a few days, though no fiirmal 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 be raised in a mode the least calculated to create offence, or even to excite attention. The word contribution is avoided as much as possi!.le, 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 of less note in this capital. These bankers have contracted for a loan of six millions of ducats 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 4,0 cents. For the security of the contractors, and the liquidation of the debt, the Government has as- I signed certain domains, the value of which is equal to the capital advanced, and the rents of which arc 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 fur the stock created. Report says that they have contracted tOr it at the rate of 61• per cent, but this is very unlikely, as 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 fur 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 Dezember last are now before me, I may, to save the trouble of reference, mention what it is. The consolidated dcbt inscribed in the great book of the king dom, conmsts of perpetual rents and pensions or life annlities.— In ISIS the perpetual rents amounted to 940,000 ducats. In the course of the List five years they hare been increased by Making in July last a total of 1,420,000 Individuals, and three companies of capitalists, possess ;042,930 of this amount; the remainder is the profit of various public administrations, and of a great number of charitable establishments which lent their capital to the state. The amount of pensions in May, 11515, wa5...1,041,121 The addition in the last five years .338,654 Making a total of 1,382,77 s Of these annuities a portion must be filling in every year. The suppression of the monasteries, ivhich 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 u: 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 ofit were not as it really is, only life annuities. The annual revenue of the kingdom, by the same finan cial statements, is made to amount to upwards of 20,000,000 ut ducats. is 1819 it is estimated at. t0.m3,433 And in imto at The examinee. expenditure exceeded the income Ly nearly a million. More than mix millions of the revenue arose from customs. The interest of the Neapolitan debt is tiloB only about a seventh of the revenue, ‘vl:ilc2 some countries tlitt might b.f mentioned, it amain is more than two thints. lint Neapolitan credit is not tike English ; and the five per cents are at 6Z, while ours are also .e 100. Tali NATIONAL REGISTER DUTCH AND FLINDERS MAIL. I-lAGuE, MAY 2.—Thc Gila:Ate of this town cantains the ;.tiotving :—" !t is asserted on good authority, that a Concordate has been con cluded between • the holy See and din Court of Prnsiia ; and that it ~+ :u signed on the .23d of March last, by Cardiaal Gcnisaivi and his Highness Prince liardeiiburg, in the name of their respec tive Sovereigns. According to this Concordate the ancient bishoprics are eAablislied 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 turther stipulates the free and pub lic exercise of the Catholic religion, an 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 Munich. Among'the articles of this treaty we observe, that the Prince of Hohenzollern, bishop of homeland, who belongs to the royal 14'114 of Prussia, i.. no minated archbishop of Cologne ; that the bishops are to be elected by the chapters, and that the en dowments of the bishopric.:, cathedrals, and semi naries are to be in landed estates. BRUSSELS, MAY s.—We read in one of our jour nals that Air. 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 ►ame language. lIEROIC EXPLOIT OF LORD COCHRANE. Extract of a letter from un officer on board the United States' frigate Maea luflian, dated Callao, Nov. 11, 1820: •' A 1 . ,.w days since, General San Martin arrived off this place with obiro 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 of owing to the natural defences which the mountains and defies afforded to the Spiniard., who in open grounds would be by no means formidable to their more vigorous enemy. After skewing this force off this port, the Patriotic General effected 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 I,:w days perfbrihed by Lord Cochrane, as was ever witnessed. It was the cutting out of a Spanish frigate, manned by hio sailors, and 400 artilieiymen, front under several batteries, mounting iu all in not less than 200 brass pieces of cannon, averaging eighteen pounder, besides four vessels of war, mounting each twenty long guns. It was perthrined by right boats, containing each twenty men, in the following 'waiter:—About hall.past twelve o'clock, on the night of the 6th instant, his lordship pulled into the harbour ut the head of his paity,(having previously obtained the watch word by surprising the guanl-boat) to board the Es ser-Oda, of forty guns; himself, with his little son by his side, being the first man on the deck. Antra bloody conflict of about halt tin hour, (for the Spaniards taught with desperation) they succeeded in obtaining possession of the .-par-fleck, and immedi ately made sail upon tile ship; the people that were thiven from off the forecastle into the water having cut her ,nhles, 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 un hour, upwards of loh men being killed and as many wounded. As soon as we perceived that the Esvieruidis was likely to fall tbul of us, we slipt our moorings and made sail ; the captured frigate keeping wiMin about too yards of us, and hoisting the same lights that we had previously put up, in order to make it dubious to the soldier. on shore which of the two vessels to fire at. This well adapted ruse dr guerre had the desired effect; for the shot flew shout our heads, and cut away our cross jack-yard, and a great deal of our running rigging. After sustaining their tire about a quarter of an hour, we got out of the reach of their shot." Private accounts front Constantinople, dated April 2, 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 then► were induced to take up arms in defence of the menaced Crescent. The arming of them led to much disorder, and cx they were indulged in con siderable licence as 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 sadres•, was safely delivered, on the 26th of April, of a tine boy, who is heir to the large estates in the county of Durham. We are happy to add, that her excellency and the infant are doing well. A forgety to the amount, it is said, of 10,0001. on the Bank, has been discovered, attended with some very curious circumstances. A person suspected of being the principal in the business has been in eon film:tent ; but in endeavouring. to escape he fell and broke one of his arms, and otht-ruvise injured so .unch, that doubts are entertained of his recovery. • PORT OP LO.VDON SOCIETY. The Anniversary Alerting of the port of London for the promotion of religion Ullllollg Sejillen, W.ka held tot Monday at the Coy of Lonomi Taverii. About lot) persons, principally females, were present. Lord GAMBIER took the Chair, and opened the bu siness of the day in a congratulatory speech. The report of the last year's proceedings began by ail. venting to the numerous and important religious meetings which were held duping the prose it maids, which to the Church had become of late years an interesting our, and pregnant with events, compared with which, to the great religious community , the revolutions of empires, the councils of kincs, and the debates of senates were trifling and unimportant. The report went on to state, that the generosity of corporate bodies, as well as individuals, had not decreased during the last year. In October last an intimation was given to the Society by his Excellency Hiroo de Ju<t, tile Ambassador Irons the King of Saxony, Mat he lad a communication to nuke to the S.,ciety. Accord. itittly his Excellency was received with proper respect on board the lluating citapel by the calm ince, when having seen the accommodations for worship, which &forded hint the greatest satisfaction, he presented a letter, ex. press,ve of his King's high interest in the welfare of seamen, and containing grateful acknowledgments for the services rendered by this country to Germany, when desolated by war, and that the seal manifested in the alleviation of the distresses of Saxony were still fresh in hn recollect II is excellency presented, by order of his Alajesty, a doom ion of one histrited Saxon thrillers (the Saxon dialler is teirty shilhogs), front the Burgo master and Alagisnates of Leipzig. Within the 'last year sitecteisful exertions haul been made in different parts of the canary to forward the objects of the society, and amongst others, Liverpool, Hull, Bristol, and Leitlt might be distinguished. Siiue ar exertions had been in Ming in North America, that had been crowned with great success, am: places for worship h id already been opened at New N'ork, Ptitladrlphia, Charlesant, and tSoston. The report gave a flattering account of the etLcis which the promotion of religion had had in many tistances on the crews of vessels in the Port of London, and the pro!ress _hat religion was making amongst them. It instinced that in the salsa bound to David's Straits and other loaners divine service was regularly performed. Tile report was received throughout wilts applause, and agreed to utianimouslv. The Rev. ROWLAND HILL combated the opinion which he 5311$ had gate abroad, that the proclotion of religion amongst Se4lllCll would tend to diminish their courage, and asked whether seamen would be less brave %vlicii they were to consider every bullet as a wel come summons to take him from a trough-soiree scoria to one ut happiness. Ile represented with much force the claims which stamen hail upon the country, that their moral and religious welfare should be attended to, and the effects which might be expected when every seamen should become, as it were, a missionary. A series of resolutions were then entered into, after many very effective sreches hail been made. Thanks were voted to tile 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 happy to learn, has expe rienced no injury to his health from his confinement. A considerable falling ofi . in the revenue the pre sent quarter, ending the sth of July 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 paymeats. The demand fur sovereigns on the that emission will of course be to a large amount, as several of the country banks have received a supply, b,sides 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 maay of them will disappear, from being contined 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 lin 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 filr from there being a scarcity of money stock, us stated in some of the papers, it could have been had on Thur. day iu 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 6th ult. on which occasion he played Jaffser, for 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 the tragedy of Rickard the Third, at the Philadelphia theatre, on the 9th. I 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 New;., , ate on NVednesday morning early, in the usual caravan, fin. Portsmouth, under the necessary escort. When changing horses at Cobhan one of the thieves con trived to purl:,in the great coat o one of the i)ost• boys, who followed and succeeded in recovering his property. I' • w 0 •
