The Trophies of Waterloo were thismorning de posited in the Chapel, Whitehall, with grand eel e ninny. .'gout ten o'clock, between three and font thousand troops were under arms in the Park, and his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief, with a' splentlid suite, present at this noble Lary and national spectacle. The line being fotitt ed, the two Eagles taken on the ever-memorable Battle of the 18th of June, and tbeColdurs 'which fell into the hands of the; Conquerors ,on that glorious day, were borne along in triumph by two Serjeants ,and a suitable guard, the music playing, and drums beating. Thus were the tro phies paraded beforf, our victorious soldiers, and on arriving oppOsite their Standards, the Gallic Eagles were lowered to the British Lion. Three cheers marked this pond and gratifying' event— cheers in which the surrounding multitude joined their gallant defemirs. The troops were subsequently formed in march ing order, and proceeded to Whitehall, where tbe. Emblems of BOoNAPARTE'S last and greatest De- , feat were hung tip amid the other warlike honours which adorn the sacred place. Divine Service was • pet : formed . ; the Soldiers returned ; arsd a public ceremony concluded, whirls was as impressive and' heart-cheering. as ever enlivened the Metropolis of Ohl England.

The most material -. of their, -.contents is a copy of the. Commercial Convention agreed upon between the GOi'ernment* of the Siaits and Great*Britai,f, wilkh was signed at London on , the 3sl of July last,•arid ratified at Washington' by the American DENT on the 224 of December. The subStinee of this Convention is short, and its principles,, exceedingly simple. It consists of tour articles, of . which the first is a general stipulation for free dom of commercial intercourse, the second re latel to an equalisation of &Hies, the, third ad mits the Americans to the ' East India trade, and 'the fourth provides for the appointment of Consuls. The second article is the most material. It provides that no higher or other ditties shall he imposed on importing or ex porting British 'and American produce and ma , nufactures,'into or from each country reciprOcally, than on the export or import Of any other fo leigit like nature; that the do ties on shipping between the . two countries-, and whether the 311;1 s be Briish or American, and ,tb it the same principle shall he applied to draw backs on re.exportation and to bounties , a s to duties. with the proviso, &it where the re-ex portation is to a third country, the respective Governments shall be at liberty to augment or diminish the drawback. It is also specified that the intercourse between America and the West Indies is not to be affected by the present Convention., 1 The admission of American shipping to the East,. India trade is limited to such principal ports and places as wher foreigners are allowed to trade to,. and is also confined to the direct trade with Arne- American ships were to have been allowe d to touch ,rt St. Helena, among other plow; but in consequence of our having rather ridicu lously converted that island into a state prison , it was found necessary to except it from the operation of the Convention. A diplomatic note to that effect was therefore presented by Mr. BAKBIP• winch is recognised in the President's ratification.
