HOMO. —The invitations annually circulated by the Duke of Wellington to those general and other officers who took part in the memorable battle of Waterloo, for the Duke's banquet on the anniversary of that sanguinary struggle, have been issued. The King of Hanover's 74th anniversary was celebrated with great pomp and solemnity, at Hanover, on the sth instant. His Majesty has just, by a Royal patent, created the Ernst August Cross, a new order of merit destined for officers in the army.  Lady Eleanor Balfour's ball, appointed for Friday next, is postponed, in consequence of the death of Lady Campbell, of Succoth.  Marriage in High Life.—We understand that Lord William Compton, the second son of the Marquis of Northarnpton, will shortly be united to Miss Elliot, daughter of the Hon. Admiral Elliot, and niece to the Earl of Nato. The parties are at present on the Continent. .An Intended Suicide.—On Monday evening -kit, ati unfortunate female servant, whom despair, or drink, had rendered insensible to all earthly ties, betook herself to the river, near the Rutherglen Bridge, with the intention of committing suicide. She was observed about twelve o'clock 137 two persons crossing the bridge, who, hearing a cr7 of distress, hastened to the spot, and succeeded after some little trouble in taking her out of the perilous position in which she had placed herself. It would seem that the woman had been some time in the river, and the place where she entered not being sufficiently deep for drowning, the cooling effect of the water had made her give up the idea of selfdestruction, and shout lustily for aid. She was brought to the Glasgow Police Establishment, and properly attended to.
