We received, last night, Hanslmirgli and Altana.
Papers to th • 28th of April. They cootain intelli-
gence front Bayonne of the 31st of March, on whirl'

every description, were constantly pairing through
it for the mine destination. The barbarous prac-
tice of transferring rues from one 'nester to another,
like so many head of caul y without any regard to
country or home, has formed a most prominent
parr of II,•N APA nit "s policy. The principle, haw-
ser, was carried Cal her than usual in the Tr sty of
Vienna, for io that they were measured out by the
nere. Austria there stipulated to cede a district of
400,000 Sous in Eastern Guthrie to Russia, and we
find that the cession is now to be carried into eff-cs,
under the superintend Auer. of Prince B,tottarnins.

The Fifth Report from the Committee on the
Public Expenditure ha. treen printed. It embraces
the Office of Paymaster of Marines sad Audit of
Accounts. A copy of this interesting article is
given in another liart or our paper. It appears
from it that the deficiency of Mr. Vis.r.teas. as
Paymaster of Marines,amounted to 2G4,5071. 214.61
for which an extent has licen issued, but his funded
property is not valued at more than 93,5071. 13(1„

Console ; for the bond which he gave for 10,0001.
as a security, on his first coining into office, in
1792, is not forthcoming ; uud there is reasuu to
believe, that no frond whatever was executed on his
re-appointment in 1803. The country will of conrse
lose about 150.0001. by Mr. VILLIERS. lu the
course of their inquiry, the Commissioner, state,
that they discs.ere.l another defaulter in the per-
son of Mr. CHARLICS BARROW, the late Conductor
in the same department. to the itincuot of 3.6A91.,
of which there is no probability teat genie than
five hundred pounds can be recovered—making
a further loss to the public of upwards of five thou-
sand pounds. These things are realty frightful,
and fully justify all the puiilic discontent and
clam Our, of which we hem. so lunch. It would
seem, in fact, that the moment men got into office,
where they bad the handling of the public money,
they considered is their owu private property—
never once reflecting, that it was wrung from
au industrious people, for public use. As •
preventive for one of these flagrant abuses.
and a check upon the other, the Committee con-
clude their Report with recommending that the
office of Paymaster of Marines be suppressed, and
that the business be transferred to the office of the
Treasurer of the Navy, and that a proper security
be taken from the Conductor, which latter advice
has been acted upon in the case of the successor to
Mr. BARROW, who has given security to the amount
of e,oool.
