Vienna, Sept. 6. . . The feast which the Spanish Ambassador
gave the 3d instant, was one of the most magnificent that
has ever been made by any foreign minister at this court;
the illuminations in particular were exceeding beautiful and
ornamental: On one side of the palace several casks of
white & red wine were set a running for the common people;
there was dancing in two places, and no less than 80
musicians playing on all sorts of instruments.
