I l'aritageS." It is said, under date of Vienna 29th, that Aus tria gets the Brisgaw, and Baden Lpecuniary in demnity for that territory.—That the Archduke CONSTANTINE'S Order of the Day, has protinced a strong sensation at Wartaw—they ask, " against Whom are the Poles to fight, since all the world is now at Peace ?" They think that it must be against Powers which do not wish that =nil Poland should paSs under the do - minion of Russia ; Austria, England, and probably France, ivhich are only advocates for what is wise and lust ;—That the King of PRussta acquiesces in Vic pretensions of RUSSIA, and persists in claim i":-; for himself a part of Belgium, Treves and Co logne :--and that England .desires the re-esta blishment of the Venetian. Republic, but cannot devis e an indemnity for Austria.

The whole position of Europe dis proves this point of view: The Cabinets ore too well acqu'ainted with the inelinations.of the people. Are there aot a thousand old wounds to be healed ? In Austria we see nothing which can authorize such dark Prospects, except what all States do, and what is egnallv.burdensOme to all, the slip port of four or tire hundred thousand men on a war establishment. .The Emperor will reduce all that is unnecessary as soon as peace is published. All other accounts agree, that an amicable con clusion is at hand. It is presumed that Rus sia is inclined to give ,to Prussia some depart- Tu . ents of Poland, inhabited more by Germans than'Poles, by which Prussia would form a large Germ an state . ; and that sonic indemnity will be found for Saxony.

Prince GUSTAVUS of ,Sweden (son of the Ex- King, or, as a Carlsruhe letter expresses it, " son of Queen FREDERICA,") on the ifith ult, made his public vifession of the Lutheran Religion at CarlSrube, in presence of the Margrave and all the Members of the Ducal House.

A letter from New York, by the way of Liver pool, dated the 3d of December, was received yes terday morning by a respectable' mercantile house in the city. Though this communication is near ly a month later in date than intelligence previ ously received from that place through the me dium of the•• Halifax Papers, it does'not furnish us with any political event of moment ; and iS perfectly silent on the reported sailing of / the Pre sident and Constitution on a cruise.

On Friday week, between five and six o'clock in the morning, ,JOHN LNMBERT, of Felton, was - attacked on the North Shields road, near a place well known by the name of the Fir Trees, 'by -three men in sailors' a pp are l, who not only robbed hint of 921. in Bank -notes, but stripped off -his . coat, waistcoat, and shirt, tied his hands and feet, and otherwise Cruelly used him.

A most melancholy accident happened at Lam bridge on Tuesdhy last :—Jr. Caoss, the tanner, having lent his fowling piece to a neighbour, who returned it without drawing the charge, his son, 'a fine boy. about twelve years of age, not know- • ing it was loacled, presented it at his mother, and drew the trigger, when it fortunately only snap ped ; this he p;ayfully repeated to 'other parts of the family; llut,ou presenting it to tire maid ser vain, it went off, and fudged the whole charge in her head : she lingered till Thursday, and expired.

BATH, JAN. 13. FOURTH SUBSCRIPTION CONCERT.—A very full room ; and the performances pleased, if possible, more than either of the preceding nights. BAR TLEMAN gave resistless feeling to his four songs ; and his last, " The Spirit of the Deep,'' was the ne plus ultra of the descriptive and pathetic. A duet of KIRKE IVHITE'S, sung by BARTLEMAN and Mrs. Asa, produced a, general encore ; as did Mrs. ASH B's Welch Melody. Miss KENNEL was much applauded in HANDEL'S " Return, 0 God of Hosts.!" The public expectation had been roused by the report of KALKBRENNER' fame—but pertorrn anre exceeded their hope and belief: for the first time to a piano-forte piece, an encore was de manded and complied with ; whe❑ he introduced " God save the King," with some beautiful varia tions of his own. HoAx.—Early this week two fellows, assuming the names of siessrs. Mathews and Ingledon, of the Theatre-Royal, Dublin, arrived at Chippenham, and distributed band-bills, announcing a perform ance, which was to conskt of Singing, Recita tions, and imitations of, or Taking of Several of the most popular London Performers. On the appointed evening many respectable z people at tended, who, after waiting a considerable time, grew impatient, and sent to request the Gentle bleu would no longer delay the performance ; when, to their great snrprise, they fou n d th a t they had taken thenisetres oft'; taking off' likewise the admission 'money—and taking in the Printer, w horn they bad the address to comb down, and give them credit for a few h u nd re d bills.—One of the above shabby genteel fellows played the same hoax at Devizes. He gave himself out as " the renowned mimic MAI HEWS, now oil his return to Covent-Garden Theatre ;" and applied at Coulton's Library for the loan of a piano-forte and violin, which he fortunately did not obtain ; he however succeeded in getting bills printed, and attracting a full Company.—fie need not add that having pocketed the admission mon'ey, he hastily decamped, as he had done at Chippenham. ROYAL'ACADEr4Y.-Mr. FUSEL' gave his second Lecture On Thursday. The _immediate subject was Design, but the ingenious 'Professor touched incidentally upon most of the points on which excellence in the Art of Paintiw depends. Cor -rectness he brad to be the chief merit, and that obtained, the Students could proceed with firm ness and security. He recommended an atten tive study of the living figure, and enforced the proprietylof correcting the defects or excesses of individual Nature, by an. exact observation of the Antique. Differing in some measure from the late vdmirahle President, he considered GENIUS as the sine qua non, and 'without it, however accu rately a Student might by labour draw an outline, if he possessed nut that vivifying power, he had better turn to some other pursuit. He therefore observed, that it was the duty of the Academy to deter more than to encourage., as Genius is not to be restrained, but will resolutely subdue all ob stacles in the road to fame. - A Gentleman, on being asked what be thought of the female Shaving Act now in preparation, replied, that it was, only •a new edition of the -" Rape of the Lock."

A meeting of the Magistrates was held on Tuesday se'nnight, and large rewards entered into, in order to put down this system of outrage, In regard to money concerns, no means of get ting money by wholesale exist at present, except the Lottery ; by which more Fortunes have been gained, than by any other means ; and we may del - y any one to prove the contrary.
