SOUTH A:.IERICA: The following is an extrut from the Trinidad Pa;. pers to the end ofJanuary, received this morning : " TRINIDAD, JANUARY 3i. We arc in possession of important news froth Caraccas. Mr. Lindsey, of Grenada, the day before' yesterday, arrived here from Cumana and Caraccas, which last city he left the eod of December. He states, that confidence in the Royal Government was restored—that many emigrant families had returned from St. Thomas's and Curacoa, among which, we understand, are two sisters of the Marquis del Toro. Orders had been received from the Spanish Cabinet to observe the strictest obedience to the Royal pardon, of those who would wish to return and avail them- selves of it. ti All the families returned were immediately put in possession of their property ; and from the known character of the present Captain-General, Brigadier- General Pardo, all the emigrants who wish to return to that country may expect an entire compliance with the Royal Indulto. " From two to three hundred houses were re building at Caraccas ; and at La Guira, and Puerto Cabello, trade with the neutral Colonies and with Old Spain had greatly revived." The Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday arrived last night. The Theatre Royal of the Odeon was burnt down on Friday night. The particulars will be found, with other extracts from these papers, in another column. The Duke of WELLINGTON is expected in England in the course of a few days. The frequent discussions which he has had of late with the French Ministers on the subject of the liquidations, and of the removal of the Allied Troops, are said to be so important, and the situation of affairs, at this moment, so criti cal, that it is thought essential for his Grace to come over to advise with his Government on the matter. Lady CHARLOTTE STRUTT had a quadrille ball on Monday evening, at her residence in Hertford-street, Ma'-fair, which was attended by nearly one hundred and fifty fashionables; dancing commenced at eleven o'clock in the principal drawing-room,which was most brilliantly illuminated, and continued till past three. Madame DE BOURKE, the Danish Minister's Lady, entertained a large circle of fashionables yesterday evening, at her house in Welbeck-street, Cavendish- square. The Bridewell and Christ's Hospital boys, in num• ber about 700, walked in procession, yesterday, to the Exchange, from whence they proceeded to the-Man sion-house, where they were shewn the Egyptian-hall, with the ornaments and decoration 3, as fitted up for the grand dinner the day before. They were headed by their tutors, preceded by beadles. After returning to the grand Saloon, where the LORD MAYOR , Re corder, Sheriffs, several Aldermen and Ladies were seated, they passed in review before his Lordship, when each of the boys, according to annual custom, received a sixpence from Ins Lordship, with a bun and a glass of wine. After this ceremony his Lord ship and company partook of an elegant cold colla tion ; they then went in state to Christ's Church, Newgate-street, attended by the City Officers, where an excellent sermon was preached on the occasion. Monday the Prince Regent's Stag Hounds turned out a deer, which was a very fine one, at Wlnkfield Plain. The deer :hewed great sport, taking through the woods by St. Leonard's Hill, crossed the Thames near Surley Hall ; the gentlemen sportsmen and hounds came through Windsor and renewed the duce near Salt Hill, where be took across the country towards Uxbridge, and ran with great speed by Harrow- on-the - Hill, and about three miles on the other side he was taken after a long day's diversion. St. John's Church, Westminster, which is called by HORACE WALPOLE, " a wonderful piece of absur dity," is one of the ponderous masses ofstor.es erected by Sir JOHN VANBURCH. It has lately been repaired at a great expense, but from the immense weight of the roof, it has since been found necesa.ary to secure the temporary safety of the building by large square oak beams, which ascend from the ground to the ceiling. They form a striking contrast to the modern slender pillars which support the galleries. Sir JOHN, however, was a favourite at Court, like otl - .3r preten ders, as a proof of which he was appointed Comp troller and Surveyor of the Board of Works, in pre ference to Sir CHRISTOPHER WREN, the immortal Architect of.the Cathedral of St. Paul's ! The Venetian Manuscripts, lately, at an immense amount, purchased by the Curators of the Bodleian Library. ale safely landed at Portsmouth, and will shortly arrive at the place of their destination. The criticisms which have appeared on the Cre re,:es in Dulwich College, must be very amusing to those ix ho know that there is not a single picture of that great master in the whole collection, nor, indeed,i in any collection in England, with the exception of that unrivalled production of his pencil, Christ in the Garden, which is now in the possession of the Duke of WELLINGTON. This celebrated picture belonged to the King of SPAIN, and was selected from the Royal Gallery in the Escurial by JOSEPH BONAPARTE, in whose carriage it was found on his retreat from Madrid. Wednesday night some villains dragged the fine piece of water belonging to Lord ELLENBOROUGH, at Roehampton, and carried off nearly the whole stork of tench and carp. The net used for the purpose must have been one with very small meshes, great, numbers of extremely small fish being found scatter ed on the banks of the lake. The robbers were not satisfied with the great quantity of fish which they obtained, but also carried off two large nets of the value of SOL which were placed to dry near the house of his Lordship's gardener. BAR Wer.—ln a late trial at Oxford, where it -rms. observed that a young Oxonian had more Wine than could be judged requisite for him, a 'celebrated bar rister remarked, that it only proved he had the port of a Gentleman. Many persons, whose manners may not be exactly formed in the s chool of Chesterfield, may, nevertheless, lay claim to this port,;n consequence of the smiles of Fortune in the present Lottery, which entitlo foam to demand their Port of Rim; nay, they may even be re-Pour-ed if they make a lucky put :base before To-morrow ; as the report is cuareat that the Tickets and Snares are gaing ?#: 5503 5995 N.!

DISTRIBUTION OP PRIZE-MONEY. The Partridge, for the London Packet, on Wednesday, the 25th instant, at No. 3, Clifford's-Inn. Recalls same place, every Wednesday and Thursday, for three months. Finz.--A fire broke out this morning between two and three o'clock, at the Barley-mow public-house, in Salisbury-court, Fleet-street. It originated in the upper part of the premises, and before its ravages could he stopped, the whole of that old-established pablic•house, above the first floor, was completely destroyed, with all its contents. The greater part of the under-part was saved by the activity of. the Firemen, who, on the alarm being given by the Watchmen, were quickly on the spot, and prevented its extension. Neither of the two houses adjoining, viz. that of the Family Prayer-Book and Homily Bo ciety, and the Eating-house in Bride's-passage, were in the least injured. We are sorry to add, that it is reported one person is missing. Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, as Miss Lowe, niece to Mrs. owe, of N 0.2, Denmark-court, Strand, was sitting in a chair, by the fireside, in the parlour, she was seized with a fit and fell head fore most into the fire. She remained there for some 'time, till her arms, face and body were burnt in a most dreadful manner ; the excruciating pain from the fire in some measure brought her to her senses, her clothes bursting into a blaze, she ran out of the house into the street, and some persons put out the flame, but too late to be of much service. She was taken to Middlesex Hospital, without the least hope of recovery. Sunday morning lags, as Mr. LUKE, of Bermond sey-street, had just finished his breakfast, and was in the act of reaching a prayer-book from a book-case, for the purpose of taking it with him to church, he fell down, and instantly expiie expired.

Mr. RAE was Mil le:war, and made that part very interesting, by the judicious and gentlemanly style in which he per formed it. : His transitions from one lady to the other were not perhaps sufficiently graduated by a pause of indecision ; but the defect is rather in the ter which is much too abrupt.

Monday, about twelve o'clock, John Green, aged 42, for the wilful murder of Rebecca Smith, at Ply. month-Dock, underwent the dreadful sentence el the law, on the drop, at the Devon County Gaol Eieter. He seemed truly penitent, and died aim: without a struggle. His body has been removed to the Hospital, for dissection. Yesterday morning, between three and four o'cloc: the premises of Mr. BARKER, Lisson-Green, Padding. ton, were broke into, and robbed of V. in money, great coat, a silver tankard, and other articles.
