The American Commodore has had an interview with the Dey, who had re-ac- knowjedged the former treaty. i It has been erroneously stated in some of the newspapers, that the nomination Of William , Late to the office of accountant of war. hag been i. confirmed' by the senate.

Lest in any future wars with Great Britain, the above asser tion should be brought forward by that nation among the many already promulgated in endea voring to prove their superiority on the ocean, we think proper, from the best authority, to con tradict it; and at tlie same time to state, that by the naval laws of this country, the full com plcment of a 74, ineludiugojjicers and boys, can not exceed six hundred and sixty-one.—Boston Patriot. ‘ ANNUAL BUDGET. Tlie budget of the new secretary of the treasury, af fords a very satisfactory account of our national finances. It will be seen that not only the accruing revenue of 1816, but the actual receipw. bavetrreatly exo-rdctl tlie last annual estimate of Mr. Dstxts. We think that, not withstanding, the redundancy of imported goods now in die country, Mr! Coawfoku lias underrated the custom! for tlie next year. His proposition to add to the. sinking- fund is a very pro|*-r one; but instead of applying the excess of revenue for tlie next four years to internal im provement and national defence, as he proposes, we should like to see a portion of the internal taxes taken off, leaving a smaller excess applicable to those objects. --Baltimore Patriot, December 37. A facetious gentleman being asked what he thought of the bombardment of Algiers, replied, "sufficient for the Dey is the evil thereof;’’—Button Chronicle.
