D UTCH PAPERS.

FRANKFORT, JAN. a commercial letter
from Naples it is affirmed, that the best hopes
are entertained there of the King's journey to the
Congress at Laybach ; that the tranquillity with
which the Parliament continued its deliberations
had a favourable effect on the public mind, and,
in consequence of this, commerce began to revive.
In another private. account from the same city,
written as it seems by an impartial person, it is
stated that the desire of consolidating the existing
order of things is chiefly to be found among the
mountaineers of the Abruvxos, Apulia, and Ca-
labria, where a spirit of independence appears to
prevail similar to that which formerly reigned in
the Tyrol and Spain. In the capital they talk
of zeal, but there is less unanimity ; they are
also destitute of good means of defence , the sol-
diers are in general inexperienced, and the officers
without ability.

WAYS AND MEANS roll. !820. •
A letter was yesterday transmitted to Congress
by the Secretary of the Treasury, which presents
a more favourable view of the state of the na-
tional finances than that contained in his Annual
Report. \Ye, shall publish the document as soon
as we
.can, but in the mean time offer the follow-
ing as the essence of it :

The actual deficit of the Revenue requisite to
meet the estimated expenditure is now stated at
-1;658,03. dollars, being less than that preeented
by the Annual Report of the Treasury by,
8,793,103 dol. 74 c. which -amount consists, first
of the sum which, it has since been found, 1011
not be wanted for the Navaliiervice ; 2d of ba-
lances of appropriations for Civil LiSt and mis-
cellaneous objects, which it appears upon subse-
quent examination will net be required ; 3d. of
an excess in the estimate of the charge for the
Military service, resulting from the different mode
of keeping the warrant and appropriation accounts
in the different departments ; and, 4th. of the
balance in the hands of the Treasureron the Ist
of January, 1820, as` agent of the War Depart-
ment, which ought. to have been deducted from
that. charge, as it had already been drawn from the
Treasu rv.

But the Secretary recommends that the loan
to be authorized be yet of the amount of seven
millions of dollars : because of the sum now in
the Treasury upwards of 600,000 are special de-
posits (uncurrent notes, it is supposed) which will
not be available during the ensuing year; because
from the most distant parts of the Union it re-
quires on an average six. months to transfer
the revenue, and much of it, therefore, will not
be available within the coming year ; and
because {here ought always to be a surplus of at
least one million of dollars in the Treasury beyond
the estimated amount necessary to meet the de-
mands upon it.

POTICE-OFFICE, lIATTON..GA RDEN:,-A mas-
ter chimney-sweeper, of Moor-street, Ldgeware-
road, was yesterday brought to this office on a
charge of cruelty to Thomas Snell, his apprentice,
about ten years of age, by teaching him to
climb by means of driving forks up the soles
of his feet, suffering him to sleep, one of live,
in a wretched bed, without sheets, and only
one blanket to cover him, not giving him suf-
ficient nourishment, or permitting hint to have
a brass plate on his cap, as directed by the Act
of Parliament. The poor boy had run away
from this cruel bondage, and his friends received
him and put him under the care of Mr. Skinner,
the surgeon, in Hatton-garden who, being sworn.
as a witness, stated that he had never seen a
child in a more filthy state, covered with a mise-,
rable rag, with no appearance of soap or water
been applied to his body for a tong- period,'
and his knees and elbows shockingly ulcerat-
ed and inflamed by his efforts in climbing.
The boy, who by the care of his friends and
tile attention of Mr. Skinner was so metamor-;
phosed that the Magistrates scarcely knew him
again, fully confirmed the statement of his usage.
The master of course denied the whole, but on
its being stated by Mr. Tooke, who attended on,
behalf of the Society, tha thaving had no previous
complaints of the master, and the friends being
willing to take charge of the child, he would
not press fOr penalties provided the master
would consent to cancel the indentures. The
Magistrates, who gave no credit whatever, to the
defence, recommended that course, in which the
master acquiesced, and the indentures were can-
celled accordingly, and the poor boy joyfully
want home with two aunts, who themselves are
honest hard-working people. with families, but
undertook this additional charge out of pure com-
piyssion to the child, who, it appeared, was sold
for a,l-pound note by his worthless father.
STnErr Ito MIER I Es.— 111 consequence of the
great and, increasing frequency of street rob-,
belies, lately, the following alterations and ar-
rangements were made in the Police Patrol, on
Friday last, by order of the Secretary of State
for the Home Department :—" Eighty of the foot
patrole, heretofore stationed on the roads in the
environs of the metropolis, are withdrawn from
that service, formed into sixteen parties of five
men each, and appointed to patrole continually,
from five o'clock in the evening till half-past
twelve at night, the 16 different town districts,
Previously, there were only four parties,of seven
men each, on this service ; and from six to eight
of these were alinost constantly on duty at the
,Theatres. The addition, therefore, is adv.ery con-
siderable one. The deficiency, created on the
ont-roads by this arrangement is to be immediate-
! v fi.lled up by fresh men, under the orders of
Mr. Dav,'"of the .Hone Office, the present Di-
rector of the Horse Patrole ; and an able con-
ductor, of tried vigilance and integrity, is ap-
pointed to each" of the sixteen parties above-
mentioned."

Another of those distressing cases which we have
had so many occasions to notice, occurred on
Monday
.in Church-street; St. Giles's. A child,
about four or five years old, being left alone in a
room by its parents, by some accident its clothes
caught lire, which, before it could be discovered
and extinguished, burnt it so dreadfully about
the arms and stomach; as to n-nder it necessary to
be immediately conveyed to the above Hospital,
where it now lies in a very doubtful state.
Oh Tuesday evening last, about six o'clock, as
Mrs. Ausnx was returning from Windsor to her
dwelling at Taplow, she was stopped in a field
near One-mild House by two foot-pads, who
knocked her down with, a bludgeon, cut lic.r
dreadfully over her eyes, and robbed her of two
one-pound notes, and 15s. in silver ; the I,lllzins
made theirescape„leaving the poor woman bleed-
ing on the ground. She now lies very ill from
'the tlows received.
