Vienna, (the capital of Germany.) May 27. Their reigning
Majesties, who enjoy perfect good health at Luxenburg,
caused lately two lotteries for 500000 florins to be drawn
here, in favour only of the actors and actresses of the fine
opera, the one of which lotteries erected by the Emperor for
the gentlemen, consisted in swords, snuff boxes, and other
things of this nature, enrich'd with precious stones; and
the Empress's lottery for the ladies consisted in
gallantries of divers sorts suitable to their sex.
