I rrjoiev at this, on :IC( . ollfit of OM' modem Dtramatists, who, having given up all i‘leni of in composition, are now entirely hosier! in luireowing from the French. The worthy 31.mager olCovent-Garden Theatre, Mr. I lARall HARKI N who must be allowed to be a judge of gold and hail pieces, has been so occupied of late in search ing-after French originals, that he had nearly gone to the bottom of the sea in hunting tiller them-- hut I do not understand he brought up any thing, " rle prglandis" w ith the smallest particle of attic salt in it. Having, however, neither "a nen, nor an old Magpie" to offer, in the place of it I am induced to submit Me skeleton of a new piece to the manage ment of either Theatre which may first adopt it.— The proposed title will chew it is- not taken from the French; and Vimagiui they will not copy it from us. I propose to call it, The IVaverings of .Waterino. The FIRST ACT shall opeti-with A larghangtiet,. in which . Le IleSirie is enjoying , himself to the full, with all his Court in attendance.

The St:crtrirs Amshall introduce a little fellow, covered a ith snuff mid dirt, who shall call himself the father of his people, and 'swear that he is their proper Emperor. On their doubting the truth of this, he shall fly into a violent passim', and cud* and kick all the personages ou the stagy, which satisfies them he is the very person they Asshed to appear, and after tlw lissom pr , r-., of attach ment to this new comer, the Act shall close with i.e Desire going away upon an ass, and his nose gay bring thrown in his face. The under plot in the THIRD ACT shall consist of a most interesting and delicate French girl of twelve years of age (Miss S. BOOTH, or Miss FooTE), who has fallen desperately in lose with a handsome Polish lancer, of six feet four iswhes (to be represeuted by Mr. CONWAY), and whom s!:e wishes to marry; to which he has only pule, or rather two objections, alz. that lie has a Coil *of wives already. Thus circumstance will pro duce a most heart-rending scene, close by his two wives (to be represented by Mrs. C. K FILE and Mts. JotiNsoN) rushing together upon the stage and insisting upon their respective lights, and the act shall terminate in .a general strngsgle ter the lancer and his lauee. The FOURTH An . shall discover Le Desirie at a splendid ball and supper, at Brussels, with Marshal Blucher (represented by GRIMALDI), and the nuke of Welliogion (by FARLEY', waltzittg . with a conple of countesses, rouge•et noir, in •the most engaging meaner, all eewe and plenty, when 'suddenly a most dreadful disainge of cannon is heard !! !

Yesiesday it meeting of the Noblemen and Gen tlepieti of the %Voterloo Association, took !thee at the Thatched House Tavern, 'St. James's-street ; His Royal Higlinesa the Dike of YORK is the Chair. The business of the day was commenced .by Nfr W. G. Carter, the Secretary, who read the Mintites of the iVestminiter Committee, detailing the par ticulars of the last day's meeting. Mr. litiusfutot LONG, frow the City of London Committee, rose to propose to the ineetin; the 141111:)- tioit of a certain scale, for the regulation of the quantum of relief to be afforded to the sufferers, in it hose behalf the general subscription was instituted. Ile had had the honour, a kw day s ago, ofsubmitting this scale to the 16).81 Chairman, who was plcused to confer upon it his full approbation. The Doke of nett here expressed his approval of the scale, which Innd been submitted to hint. Mr. Low; reamed, and stated, that from the general appearance of the Waterloo Subsciiption, there could be no doubt it would exceed the amount of relief atkrded by the Patriotic Fund ; it was thought right, however, lit the first instance, to adopt SOllleWilat a a similar scale to that institu tion, in the mode of distributing relief—it was now time to adopt such a course, and he (lid not know a better way of carrying it into effect, than to pro pose, that some of the members of the IVestinin ster Committee should unite with the London one, in arranging the general distiibution of the fund. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY had no doubt that the scale of relief alluded to had been well con sidered by the Loudon Committee ; it also hail iuet the aitprobatiou of the Royal Chairman. lit his Grace's opiitiou, there was, therefore, no necessity for the attendance of the Westminster Committee, for that purpose. The otter from the Gentlemen of the City ing by the Co,mnittee of which he (the Arch bishop) was a memher— mud indeed it must be look ed upon as higlify honourable to both. The pub.' lie could have no better security for the proper Hp plicat of its subscrii , than the equitable• scale which was nroiltraed fur its regulation; nor rould they, he was persuaded, consign it to better hails than those in wlncli it now stood, Mr. Row 'tour iiliserved, that the scale of the Patriotic Fuistl, so lar as it referred to rank, was doubtleso /I proper one; lint the fact was, that, al though it hod 'teen sug4ested iu the city as a pro per one, the matter was not specially consideled ; it bring deemed proper, in the first instance, to submit it to this meeting. Great cure, of course, would Ire taken to snake the relief apportioned to that already provided 111 the War ()aim Sir H. OA KLS suggested the necessity of pro rhling some temporary relief fiir • the cluimants at the present moment. Mr. ROWC ft OFT begged_leave to say that this had been douse, and although advertisements were given to that effect throughout the - entpive,iliewas surprised to filod so few applicationslsere forward ed. The member transmitted were ,fill mush less than nor hundred. As to thelteer.sity of imme diate relief, the soldier could not require it in the military ;tot could their female re . halves (except to a smolt extefit),.tifistif tliy-lach ed their dimiestie destitiatimi. , .The AS-ovation was, however, itnXinsis to give instant relief, Where it might be deemed necessary. The scale which- was acted upon fur the last 13 years would, lie trusted, be • found the best to limn the basis of thlity chef— as to its extent, it would lie premature to -strike a J 11114,111161 the nature of their funds, as well as that of their claimants, (mild be more definitively avrer tinned. They tiiit not • pl'efena to istufer rudua we all they aimed at oaS, to relieve fusses and prism ions. Mr. IkEsvciti LONG felt it proper to observe, that the colluetion in the City was for BritiA sta. ferers in the late actions, and that it would . lie fight to have the co-operatiou of the WestiniiisterSieet ing, fir the puriinge or urratigi lig the mode of . apply- Mg the K encral 1 . .1111. 31r. RowcuoFT said, the amount already sub scribed, in the United Empire, was nearly 300,0004 with the interest arising nut of this sum in the funds, together with other expeetancics, there could be no doubt it would amount to 400,000 f. Mr. 1-IAMPiTEAD wished to know whether any and what difference existed in the formation of the London and Westmiuger Associations. Collections fool also been made by the. Church of Scotlind, besides parochial ours—there would of course be transmitted to tot% h, and it was importaot to know the objects of the Societies ia the 'Metropolis, which, in his opinion, ought tolie amalgamated. Air. ROWCROFT relined, that the collections by the Kiiig's Leiter in the churches .throughout the kingdom were for the British, the Prussian, and Belgian troops, but that those of the Associations in the !Metropolis were generally for . the British, it serving until a future moment the point of making them more general. In the city collections the wishes of each subscriber were consulted, and the subscription inserted accordingly. From the re turns of casualties in the late actions, there appear ed 10,000 British sufferers, and abort 5,000 Bel gian and Hanoverian. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY was of rtpi uiott, that considerable diflietilty would arise in ar r ivin g at the fact of the distinct objects of the se T rrral sidiscriptions. They were no doubt ititended for the saute purpose; and it would be ill mime at this moment to institute particular inquiring*: The church collections under the King s Lettnrwere fOr the illitish, Prussians, and Belgians; but the other collections were certainly understood to he for the British—the sufferers of the Prussian and Belgian armies bud their own countries to look to. l'he matter in this respect ought to remain as it stood. When the general alumna of the stibscrip tions was ascertained, it was evident that a liberal appropriation would be made to the sufferers in that part of the Allied army v.:6 , 1%yd duri:.g the late emit s!. Mr. 11.
