Mr. Edward Ward arrived on Thursday morning at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, with the General Treaty of the Congress of Vienna. The Gentleman who form the Band of Drury-Lane Theatre, have presented Mr. Arnold with a very costly Piece of Plate bearing an insciiption, which expresses their " Grateful thanks for his kind and gentlemanly conduct during the period of his management, to which the interests of the con. cern, and the comforts of the Performers are so much behol den ; and there sincere regret at his determination to secede from the direction of that Theatre." The London Committee for managing the Waterloo Sub setiptions have received a letter from Prince Blucher, of uhich the following is an extract :—" I hope your nation is now satisfied with me. I have in the course of eight days, fought two pitched battles and five sharp engagements have taken two fortified towns, and masked three fortresses. For these successes my poor troops have paid the price of 20,000 of their comrades. In your efforts pray remember our poor sufferers." The forctr of Buonaparte's boasted army is now reduced to a Red Pink. Our readers will be pleased to see that the great Capitals in the late Lottery have been distributed to the Public is Shares : the £40,000. in 2 Quarters, 1 Eighth, and 6 Six teenths—the ~f30,t)00, Quarter and 12 Sixteenths.—and the £20,000, in I Quarter, 2 Eighths, and 8 Sixteenths. This shews Fortune to be more kind than she is wont, and accounts for the early and eager demand for Tickets and hares in the new Lottcry, thy Scheme of which is already almounced.

The Parisian husbands are astonished at this conduct, which they ridicule as a strange English prejudice, and each of them wishes that he had had the good fortune to have netted his Venus with such another Mars.
