artillery are jest arrived, and are etected in battery
near the town, to fire a salute on 00. entrance of
the Sovereigns. As the market, which is esoally held
in the. triode place before the Hotel de Vilie4
around the statue of Charlemagne, would n have
been a very dignified sight for the Melna ot
tchs, it
is ordered to a more concealed part of the town.
The residence of Prince Hardenherg is here, and looks
towards the Hotel de Ville. This building, which
IS "%id to have been constructed on the spot occupied
4y the Palace of Charlemagne, is a venerable ancient
fabric, which, as it is erected on en elevated site, sod
is besides more lofty than any of the surrounding
bosses, is the first object that strikes a stranger in
descending any of the heights that surround kia.ta.

Ott each side of the fountain, at a little distance,
stands a large black eagle on an elevated pedestal,
'lapping their metal wings, which seem too much-
rusted and damaged by time for a long flight. The
Emperor and these two emblems of his power tuts
their beads towards the ,ancient palace, above the
door of which the Prussian eagle designates the.late
transference of dominion to a new master. In the

nation. What is particularly pointed out to the
notice of the stranger in this saloon, beside Lit• Srb,
spaciousness and elegance, is a large well.ezecatmi,
picture, representing the assemblage of Amber:
eadors who signed the Treaty of Ais.la-Chapelle, le
•1748... They are seated at the Council • WIN •at-
•tended by two Secretaries, engaged in their proper
office, with the Magistrates of the city, as witnesses,
behind them, and Peace waving her utive-branch•
over their heads. Their different costumes and or-
ders are remarkably well represented, while their re-
lative positions, personal attitudes, and the various
expressions of their countenances communicate a
lively ides of the sentiments with which they are sup.
posed to be actuated, and the views entertained by
their respective Governments regarding the act
in which they are engaged. The separate portraits
of these Ambassadors, sent by their respective Go-
vett Tents, decorate the surrounding walls. The
jleur de lie has been struck out of the arms of France
by the French Republicans, while they have
strangely 'mult, left it to decorate those of Eng-
' land. The sight of this picture, in which we see a
Genoese Ambassador, and no Russian, contrasted
with that which may decorate the same wells at the
conclusion of the present Congress suggests
sttik-
ing reflections on the fate of States and Empires ;
and the effect of the contrast is heightened, when a
silk curtain is drawn aside to display the full-length
portrait of the King of Prussia as Lord Para.
Mount in the Hall of the Caesars. Behind the
Town.hoose lies the Theatre, a narrow, low roofed
not unlike a barn or granary. Above the
level of the pit and the stage there is only one range
of boxes, and a side gallery not much larger thin
, the orchestra at one of the larger London ones.—
, The comp.") of actors are receiving an accession of
strength against the approaching Congress in two
.performers of eminence, one from the Theatre of
Da‘ms.adt, and another from that of Stutgard. The
latter, Mr. Ester, is reckoned one of the best tragic
actors in Germany, and is announced for Friday, in
Schiller's play of William Mil. Theatrical amuse.
menus are at Aix-la-Chapelle almost a necessary of
life, for the loungers who frequent it for health and
for gambling at .the bathing season, in summer and
autumn.. Their usual course is to bathe or drink the
voters in the morning ; to attend the gambling tables
on the Redoubt from twelve till three or four; to
dine at •that bout or a little earlier; to take a pro.
viewede then round the walls, or towards Lanisberg,
abeautifel rising ground to the north of the cut) ; to
return to the theatre till ten, and thence to adjourn
to the gaming-table till midnight. The work of one
• day is the work of all ; there is.little variety, and
no novelty. There will, however, be a little of both
before this day se'nnight.
