GRAND LOTTERY PRIZE

JAN. 27, 1815.—N0. 2.61, drawn this (l).• a
Prize of TWENTY..THoUSAND POUNDS,• and as the
first-drawn Prize. above 25/. farther entitled to
TWENTY THOUSAND POUNDS MORE, making to-
gether a Prize of FORTY. THOUSAND POUNDS, was
sold by MarvrtN and Co. No. 8, Cornhill, in one
half, one quarter, Ono eighth, and two sixteenths,
tridy Llieliy Office the-fortunate holders
may receive their prize'-money on demand.. This
is the most c.xtraordinary circumstance in the an-
nats cif Lotteries,. there being no other instance
20,0001. falling, in addition to a tixed,capital of
the same amount.

When the prize was announced, by the posting
of placards on the windows of Maitin's Lottery'
Office, a numerous assemblage of. persons imme-
r,...paired to the spot, anxious to get a
glimpse of the fortunate number: In the course
of 'the afternoon, the street in the front of the
()Tice was, so much crowded, it was almost im-
possible for u foot passenger-to pass On that side
of tliewriy. In the evening the. Office was Hitt-
ruindted with small lamps, which bad a very pretty
effect.- crowd Gontintted to increase up to a
late hour last right. Amongst t 1.1! throng were
observed several Ladies and Gentlemen of the
greatest respectability.
We untlerstand that a Spanish Gentleman, who
resides, in Bedford-square, is. the holder of one
half of this fortunate Ticket.

A G.tint letn n lately returned filial Paris .had
the, rpfere put him :•;---" Are not the
French very jealous of our articles of commerce ?:.!
Tralysc," replied the formet, " and with.yery.
few exceptions ; the PariSian Ladies, Atowever;
who idolize their toilets, are enraptured:with the',
and. powerful' Operatiie virtues of Ro.w-,

NEW-YORK,. DEC. 26,7—Three of .the enemy's
ships of war were cruizing off Sandy-Hook on Sa-
tnrday. ' The Tax Bills have all passed the House

Extract:of a Letterfron!..:lpnapotip, dated Wechles:lay, ec:3l.
It iS recliteed to a certainty, ;that an. at-
tack on Annapolis is Meditated. by the enemy.—
They have -been sounding the channel almost
within range of cantina cif the little fort at the
edge of the town and Cockburn is known to he
lying in Hefting 13y, with his Rappahannock
fleet, being
.only a few hours saii3Of the town.
• Naw YORK, Dcc. 22.—The British Lieutenant
who. commanded the brig Locust last year, is
stated to have deserted to'the America its. On his
arrival at Sackett's Harbour, cm the 13th Of De-_
ember; he gave infotwation that the enemy's pew
frigate at Kingston is nearly riuitly for launching,
and that they; have laid down the keel for another
shir of the same size as the St. Lawrence,-and are.
collecting large quantities of timber. He further
states, that they have got out the frames of two
frigates, Ecar Lake Erie, and intend bringing
them down to the Lake, and settinvhem up as
soon as the sleighing becomes .good.:- He also.
states that the enemy are building two 20-gun
brigs on Lake Huron. . •
• NEw Yoax, DE.C. 24.—Gneral Jackson; ley the
lates't accounts, was marching to defend New
Orleans.

Capture of the Wasp.—The rumour of the cap-
ture of this vessel, it is strongly to be feared, will
eventually prove to have been correct.
The Norfolk Ledger, in copying the rumour
(published in the Comniercial Aett;•eytiser last even-
ing) from the Wilmington Gazette, addS the fol-
lowing,:—" We understand that Admiral Cock-
burn stated, that on his passage from Bermuda he
spoke a vessel, from which. he obtained infOrma-
t ion that the WTasp had been taken off Charleston_
after a bloody conflict." Taking this in con-
nexiou with the other 'reports in,circulation, there
is some ground to apprehend that the Wasp is
captured..

the Dean and Chapter, the High Sheriff of the

dinner, her Royal Highness left Salisbury.
The Yeomanry Cavalry escorted her Royal
Highness through the county, and mounted a
guard of honour at the Palace gates during her
stay.

On the approach of her Royal Highness to this
town, 'she was received with all the honours due
to her exalted rank, and an immense concourse
of people were assembled on the Royal Terrace
and Esplanade, on the happy occasion. A Royal
salute was fired from the Greyhound Revenue
cutter, commanded by Captain 11. Wilkinson, and
returned from the battery on the shore. The
next evening a most brilliant and general illumi-
nation of the town took place: The serenity of
the atmosphere, the occasional discharge of can-'

A few of the National Guard exclaimed,
" Vive le Roi !" and titid the National Cockade
under foot, a ceremony which they took particu-
lar care to perform as they passed aßritish guard.
Many of them took it. from their hats with the
greatest sang froid, and carefully put it in their
pockets as.it in expectation a using it again, b 1;
at least, to be prepared for either Master. It
was amusing to see those, who just seenied as if
they were acting a character on the stage ; the
next thought which occurred was that they «ere
fellow-creatures, -and I turned. away full of con-
tempt lnd disgust.
On the '22d, a division of Prussians, consist-
ing of about 16,000 men, was reviewed by the
Kings and Emperors. There now appears to be
a greater degree of confidence in the Parisians,
for, on the 23d, an order was issued, reducing the
guards to less than half their uumber, and the
guns 'which have been standing loaded, with slow
matches burning, &c. are to be withdrawn. The
Prussians demolished Jerome's Palace, near St.
Denis. The finest mirrors were' thrown down
and dashed to pieces, while, with loud- huzzas,
they danced among the fragments."

-1
Tat.tras, jo.v I.—His Majesty's ship Jasenr .
detained and sent into this port, on Thursday last,
eight American -fishing vessels-, found at anchor in
ontr of the Ragged Island hiaboors. We hope
our cruisers on this coast will he vigilant in bring-
ing those tnarauders into port, .if they should
persist in their pretensions to a right in fishing on -
our shores.
On Wednesday last, June 2S, a Court-martial
was held on hoard his Alairsty•s ship ALbar; for
the trial of Capta.-n the lion. G. Douglas,, the
officers and crew. of the Levant, and Captain Gor-
don Falcon, the officers and crew of the
,Cyane.;
auth.to investigate the causes which led to the
capture of those ships in Feb. last, by the Ameri-
can ship of war Constitution.
We iiivictstand that, after A thorough. in vest i-
gat ron,:the Court was hilly of opinion, that 'their
coptw:e was to be attributed to the very. superior
force of the enemy's ship, and to her great.supe-
yiority in sa liny ; which .enabled her, throughout
the action, to keep at such a distance, that their
commodes were of little effect, .while she ‘vi:s
constantly keeping up a steady fire from seventeen
long 21-pounders-; and that the Officers and men
evinced the greatest skill and intrepidity, defend-
ing their Ships'in.a manner highly honourable to
them, while-it could he done with the least pro-
spect of success. 'lt is almost unneeesary to add,
that the Captain, Officers, and men or built ships,
were fully and most hwuntrably acpitted.
The Court passed a high eneonstum on the con-
duct of the ship,' companies, expressive -of the
sense it entertained of their loyalty, in resisting
repeated offers .made..lo thcm to citter the service
of the enemy. We are assured, that the whole of
the men were confined ku the hold of the Consti •
union, in a warm climate, with their legs in
Chains, and hand-ciiired, for three weeks ; during
which time repeated attempts were nook by the
Officers and crew of the Ameriean ship to shake
their attachment to their King and Country ;. but
without effect.

THE THEATRE.

COvErtir-GAttmtrt.—The arduous part of Mat-
beth was assumed, for the first time, last night, at
this Theatre, by Mr. CONWAY. The inherent
difficulties of the part are sufficient. to bespeak a
lenient consideration, but when the Adventurer
is anavoidablybrought into comparison with the
treat Actor of the day, whose profound kudw-
•ledge of his art, powerful talents; and long ex
perience, enable him to afford a high gratification
to CriticiSm, there is surely an additional claim
to liberal animadversion. Such is the case with
Mr. CoNwAv.' If 11.--s performance could be esti-
mated without this inevitable test of comparison,
be would, at least, be admitted to have given a
respectable representation of the part. • His chief
fault was ft kind of languid solemnity, which was
particularly observable in the earlier scene:, and
‘yhich, indeed, in some degree, accompanied his..
performance throughout ; but there were many
flashes, which operated strongly on the feel-
ings of the, audience. On the whole; lijs
performance, if not marked by the- 'vivid •
characteristics of overbearing Genius, (Fs,
played feeling, good sense, and judgment.--
The audience made up in zeal what they wanted
in numbers, and if talents were to he estimated by
applause, Mr. Co N WAY would have as much .rea...]
son' to be satisfied with his reception as most,of
the favourites of the. day ; but popular favonr is
a very fallible criterion' of theatrical merit.—The'''
rest of the performance requires no particular no-
tice.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nor. 17.

Tl►e Coi►rt was occupied during the greater part
of the •day in hearing cases for special argument.
DOE on the demise of BULLOCK V. RUTLAND and his

WIFE.

Mr. Serjeant -LF:WS moved for an attachment
,against the defendants for a continpt. The de-
fendants, under process of the Court, had -been
ejected by the Sheriff from certain premises, but
after ejectuient had recovered possession, by gain-
ing adini,.sion through the window: It was ob-
vious that the proceedings of the Sheriff might
thus he continually defeated; unless the Court
were in some'manner to interrose its authority.
Mr. Justice HEATH was of opinion, that the
actof the defendants constituted a forcible entry,
for althe•ugh nor in itself a breach of the peace, it
was likely to produce one.
The CHIEF JUSTICE thought otherwise, and
that there was no forcible entry. The•motion ter
a;, tatachment must be granted of course.

WEST COAST OF AFRICA.

[FROM CATT. TUCKEY'S GEOGRAPX Y.)

Th.:. coast between the Volta and Benin is
subject
,to the pow6rfol and barbarous king of
Dobomey, whose body guard is composed of 800
'women, armed with, muskets, bows, and ;Arrows;
whose chief officers approach him crawling on their
bellies, and licking the dust of the ground ; the
avenues to whose palace are paved with human
, skulls, and its walls incrusted with the jaw-bones
'of his massacred subjects ; and who, on days of
;ceremony, sprinkles the graves of his ancestors
with human gore, while fifty corpses, and
'as many heads stuck on poles,
,are placed round
the royal sepulchre :—the wives of the deceased
King mutually kill each other, until the new
Monarch orders the massacre to cease ; and
the people, more ferocious than tygers, in the
midst of noisy rejoicing, tear the victims to pieces,
for the mere pleasure of doing so, and without
even the excuse of feasting on the flesh, for they
are not cannibals.

• " The negr•oes of Benin Are nearly as barbar-
ous as the Dahonteys. Their 'King, who can bring
100,000 fighting men to the field, is worshipped
as a delui.god, is supposed to live without fOod,
and when he appears to die, is thought, like
the Grand Lama, to revive under another human
form. Here humtur victims are sacrificed to the erii
principle; and in their feasts the King and
Nobles dip their coral necklaces in the blood of
the victims, and pray to the Gods that they may
never be deprived of this mark of pre-eminence.

" The nations between Beniu and Loango nre
little known. A second ttibe of Biafers inhabit
•the banks of the Formosa, and are said to sacri-
liCe their children to the Devil. To them suc-
ceed the Calbongas, occupyingthe country through
Which runs the Rio del Rey and San BenitO: they
are painted as -the least 'civilised of the Negro
nations, going naked, and selling their children.
and relations as slaves."

c 3 RMY 'ESTIMATES.

. .
The House having then resolved ;itself into a
Committee of Supply,
Lord PALMERtTON, in bringing the Army Esti-
mates before the House,
.sbottld merely state, in
general, the difference between the establishment,
as reduced in 1814, and the angmente:tions which
had since incitrred in consequence of altered
state Of the relations of the country.. Upon the
Whole, there appeared to !rave been last. year a
decrease in the army of 47,000 men, and in the
exj)endi:ure. of 2,67:2,000f. The reductions in the
British infantry and cavalry at-non-tired to 37,000
men, and 2,269,00 a The nest estimate was the
; only a fever Corps had remained embodied,
and a considerable Saving had thus been obtained ;
but that would he overbalanced by the expellee of
re-embodying them. There was some increase
in the half-pay of General Officers, in consequened
of en arrangement which had taken place last year.
The reduction of the garrison estimate was 237,0001.
that on the Home Staff 98,0001. and on the Foreign
Staff 140,0001. In the Public Departments there
was a diniinution ot 169,000/. The principal sav-
ing arose from the Pay-office, and consisted of
29,000/. notwithstanding the transfer of Exche-
quer Bilk; The expenditure for the Chelsea Col.,
lege in-door Pensioners bad decreased 1000/: but
there was an increase of 100,0001.. for out-pen-
sioners, partly nil, account of the augmentation of
their numbers, a'ltd partly becausen rise had taken
place ip their pensions. ‘On the WidoWs! pen-
sions there was an increase of 29,0001. -On the
Voluntea-enrps a-diminution- of 149,0001. Chiefly.
occasioned by the disbanding of the cavalry. The
Local Militia estimate, as compared with that for
1814, .Was also less by. 266,000 t, The reduction
that had taken place in the foreign corps amount-
‘ed to 10,000 men, and 383,0001: This was•oe.
caSiOned by, disbanding four of the foreign corps
in our service. There was an increase in the
Royal Military College of 70001.; 8801. of which
were for the rent and taxes of the new buildings
employed. In the Military Asylum there was a
diminution of three thouand pannids in conse-
quence of no enpenee havimg been necessary last
year for painting_and repairs: A 'diminution Of
3,0001. would also be found on the Retired Chap,
gains' Allowance Estimate, in consequence of the
death of nine individuals. In the Compassionate
List there wag' On increase -of 17,0001. and in the
CoMmissariat for Ireland one of 64;1300/. As the
Barrack Estimate stood, there appeared to he a
very considerable saving, but as there was a mis-
take in the printing, be should postpone that esti-
-mate until the error should hive been corieeted.
There teas a diminution of 11001. on the Soperan-
Ir.:a:ion Allowance, arising from the death of an
old Officer. The total antonnt of the augmenta-
tion that had since taken place on- the forviga
corps was 9000 men, and 184,000/. and on. the
St ;di 50,0001. There would ako be au augmen,.
tation in the Miscellaneons Department, as it was
intendsd to 'make, an allowance to Officers
