There had been *Wel days' skirmishing between the troops of ROLITAR and the Royalists previous to the battle, Ind it was owing to a spirited attack by the Co lombian cavalry under the command of Gett.Nico -44. against the Royalist cavalry, notwith ""ding the latter were superior in numbers, the action at length became general, WI terminated so gloriously in favour of the' Liberator ; mud it is a singular co in hence that this victory should have been ach ieved on the anniversary of the day that nouvaa set his foot on the Peruvian territory.

DIMY-LANS.--Mr. MACREADt made his first appearance for the present season last night in the part of Macbeth. lie was well received on his entrance, and applauded during his per formance. '!'here was uo observable difference in his acting' compared with his former style, with which the public are so well acquainted as not to require any remarks on our part. At times he adopted the affected transitions from the lofty to the familiar, with which Mr. KEAN has infected the Stage, 211 d WhiCil are too artifi cial to make any impression on the judicious, though it may surprise and please the ignorant and vulgar. Mrs. BUNN's Lady Macbeth was an effective performance, and Mr. War.LAcies Mactinff an animated portrait of the character. HAYMARKET.— Tho season concluded last night at this Theatre with the musical piece of Rosina, the Comedy of Every One has his Fault, and the Farce of Turn Out. In the first piece, Miss GEORGE, a very good singer, and a natural actress, but much wanting in deportment, was the Rosina.—She introduced two songs not ori ginally in the piece, and sung them well. This is a practice that ought to be prohibited. No thing can be more absurd on this occasion than to make a gleaner in the field conversant with all the embellishments of vocal science ; but a still greater absurdity is to adorn such a character with silks and satins, yet this practice is univer sally adopted by those who play the part. Miss Geoane was decorated in the same manner, and looked like a Shepherdess in Romance, or at a Masquerade. The Comedy of Every man has his Fault was very well cast, and very well sup ported, particularly by Mr. DowroN, Mr. WIL. UAW. Mr. YOUNCIEII, Mr. and Mrs. HAMBLIN, and Mrs. Gr.ovea. It is impassible to attend any of Mrs. Irsclta4Ln's plays without regretting the loss of the fair author, who possessed an origi nal genius, was an accurate observer of life, and capable of delineating the pathetic and the ludicrous with equal, and admirable, skill. At the end of the Play Mr. DowToN (not the Ma nager', as stated in sonic of the Morning Papers) came forward and delivered the follooing Ad dress, in a manner partaking of a mixture of earnest sincerity and sarcastic humour, which made a strong impression on the audieuce:— " I,Anres AND GENTLEMEN-1 have the honour of ap pearing before you to announce that the performances of this evening terminate the p rese nt season of the Haymarket Thea tre ; and to convey to you, from the Proprietors, their . grateful acknowledgment of the approbat ion an d indulgence with which you have received, and the extraordinary share of patronage with which you have rewarde d, their unceasing efforts to con tribute to your amusement. " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—It has been noticed that se veral of your established favourites were presented to you at not quite so early a period of the present seat:on as you had been led to expect. The Proprietors beg to declare, that the delay was caused by the sudden overthrow of an arrangement with the Winter 'Theatres (upon the faith of which the Proprietors of this Theatre had entered into many weighty engagements) at a time when it was impossible for them to supply the tempo rary deficiences thus occasioned : and to prove that it was owing to no want of industry on their parts—to no considerations of expence—the' most respectfully beg leave to plead their conti nued efforts, in the enlistment of new forces, to maintain, to the last, the strength of their company. " It is the intention of the Proprietors, Ladies and Gentle men, to recommence the performances at this Theatre as soon as it may please his Majesty's Lord Chamberlain to grant them his license. Their stage being of somewhat small dimensions, and their Theatre totally unprovided with stables, they cannot venture to promise you either a procession, a troop of horse, or a herd of elephants ; and hitherto they have been unsuccessful in their efforts to discover a cabinet of monkies, or a set of dancing dogs, altogether deserving the honour of appearing before an enlightened British Audience. Yet while they ex press their fears that they must therefore continue to restrict themselves to the representation of the legitimate Drama merely, they are not without a hope that their strenuous endea vours to provide for your amusement, by the production of fair dramatic novelty, and the engagement of the best biped Per formers—mere men and women—they can procure, will ensure them the honourable reward of your patronage and support through a protracted season. " For myself and the rest of the Performers, I return you our grateful thanks for your kind indulgence towards us. " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN —For the present season, we all of us most respectfully take our leave." It is certain that the Proprietor of this The atre has been improperly abridged in his season, and has cousequeutly much reason for the com• plaint which the speech contains. Ile has, however, shewn such spirit and judgment as a Manager, in providing the best of the established Performers whom he could obtain, and has introduced several novel Performers, during the season, of such me rit as well entitles him to the approbation of the Public. The Farce of Turn Out was rendexed very diverting by Mr. DowToN and Miss MILLI', and the audience, which crowded the Theatre in all parts, left it at a late hour, highly gratified with the entertainment which they bad received. It is said that the Proprietor of the Haymarket Theatre means soon to open Ids house again with a respoctable corps of Performers, under the kind protection of the Loan CHAMBERLAIN, to afford a compensation to him for the abridgement of his season. KLAN, according to the Scotch papers, has ac. cepted a winter engagement from the Manager of the Edinburgh Theatre ; as has also Miss NOEL. Mr. and Mrs. lasToN left their residence in St. George's-place, 11 yde.park-corner, on Satur day morning, in a travelling chariot. Mr. L. has no engagement at either of the Winter Theatres, and his labours at the Ilaymarket (which house closes to night) having terminated, Mr. 1„, there fore quits London to fulfil divers provincial en gagements. MISS FOOTE AND MR. HAyNE.—The action , brought by Miss FOOTE against Mr. BAYNE, for breach of ' promise of marriage, it is expected will be tried in the course of three weeks. The damages, we understand, are laid at 10,0001. The plaintiff estimates her engagement at Covent garden Theatre (including her benefit) at 1,5001. a-year. She goes of course ler special damages in the loss of that engage ment, which, it is said, she was induced to abandon at the in stance of Mr. Bayne, in contemplation of her marriage with that ge ntleman. In support of this char g e, it is alleged that Mr. Mayne paid the forfeiture for breaking the engagement to the proprietors of Cove nt- g arden Theatre.—Mr. Searlett, Mr. Brougham, and Mr. Ad o lp hus, are the Counsel retained for Mr. Bayne. The two former were presented with briefs for the plaintiff', which they of course refused, having betn . previ. ous ly retained on the part o f the defendant. The briefs were then presented to the Attorney-General and Mr. Gurney, who now hold rated to Paper.) THE MIN OF ROSS.—On Sunday the 7th inst., being the 100th Anniversary of the Death of the celebrated JouN KYULE, Esq. Pope's Man of Ross, the new Society of Ringers in that town rung a " mottled peal" on the occasion. —( Hereford Paper. ) it has been stated that one of the firemen of the Beacon Insurance Office had been lost in one of the recent tires. This is a mistake, the man is alive► and well. 0 i ".. - ,40 " •-,?. ifi. 4r t - 14 d :tt . —• 'iv. , " , i' - ef , ev. , Irj. .., or ~. . 4 . .• , ~A ti. ; ....• ,-• s rriy, ' eK, 1 ,,,, 4 t,,, • . t , .11 , ........iy+ 4, ~ ..... 0 ._ : 4 ,it V 1 1. ~i• -7 .' ..

WINDSOR, NOV. 16.—His MAJESTY has not yet taken any out-door exercise. The heavy rains which fell on Satur day and yunday have, indeed, so materially injured the newly. formed rides as to render them almost impassable. A very short duration of fine weather will, however, restore them to their proper state, as they are furnished with excellent drains; and it is not at all improbable, that we shall be able to an" nounce the pleasing fact of his Majesty's resuming his accus. tomed exercise before his departure for the metropolis.—This morning, at half after nine o'clock, her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta left Frogmore for her residence in the stable. yard, St. James's. Her Royal Highness was accompanied by Miss Wynyard, her Lady in waiting, and followed by the princi. pal part of her household. Her Royal highness the Duchess of Gloucester left Bagshot Lodge this day for London. Bee Royal Hight- .4s will take up her residence at the apartments of the Princess Augusta, at St. James's, as Gloucester House is undergoing a thorough repair. FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

This was the first meeting for the no• Initiation of Sheriffs which the Noble Earl has been absent from since he has been the Lord President. Late intelligence from Laguyra mentions, that Baron de SHACK, the distinguished botanist and agent of the Austrian Government, in collecting specimens in. natural history through Gregiamt and Brazil, departed this life there on the Ist of September. The seeds he sent to New York, from time to time, have been usefully employed by the Horticultural Society, and the proprie tors of the Litincen Garden. A late Letter from Madrid says—" All Fo reign Journals being most rigidly forbidden, no one gives credence to the accounts which the Spanish Government publishes as to the state of affairs in South America, it being impossible to institute any comparison as to their authenticity." Private letters state, that the ex-Queen of HAYTI - arrived at Florence on the 21st ult. She is accompanied by her two daughters, who are perfectly black, but genteel in appearance, and well educated. An English lady travels also with her, and several English servants, but none of her domestics are either Negroes or Mulat toes. She intends to pass the winter in Tuscany. A Newcastle-upon-Tyne Paper, of Saturday last, says—" From what is very currently re ported, it seems to be admitted beyond doubt, that an attempt will be made to effect a change in the Representation of Northumberland, at the next Electiou."—Be this as it may, it is posi tively stated that the contest will be carried oft at a considerable expence. On the Ist ultimo the village Switzerland, was nearly totally destroyed by tire. of Scheid!, in POETItY. A NEW SONG, CALLED KUNT'S MATCHLESS BLACKING. :Sit Me Park Walls, which are all While with I)lacking . 1 ) HUNT is the steadiest man alive, You doubt ; but I assert it, One art he has by which to thrive, And always will exert it. One plan hi always has pursued, When fame or cash were lacking, An art he fully understood, To make and sell his blacking. At first, for pleasure more than fame, He tried a private practice, By which he blacken'd his own name ; "fis odd, but such the fact is. 'But finding such black deeds, when done, Brought serious harms, not jokes, 'He thought it would be better fun To blacken other folks. Preparing then his wholesale jet, With tongue, instead of feather, He daub'd it over the whole set Of Ministers together. And still he found he had enough ? When thicken'd with black stones, To sprinkle his most filthy stuff, O'er the whole host of Tories. At Covent-Garden more he spill'd Than friend or foe could think ; And Manchester's disputed field He delug'd with his ink. At length, when Faction droop'd her borp And Farmers ceas'd to grumble, He then began to blacken corn, For his pride had felt a tumble. Black corn he sold, black ink he brow'd, And said, nor was't a cracker, His MATCHLESS 131.4'cl:ism if you'll use The Devil can't make you blacker.

ANTEDILUVIAN ANTIQUITIES. An immense assemblage of fossil bones has re cently been discovered in Somersebthire, in a cavern of the Limestone Rock at Banwell, near the west extremity of the Mendip Ilills, on the property of the Bishop of Bath and Wells. The circumstances which led to this discovery are as follow : Some miners engaged in sinking a shaft in search of cala mine intersected a steep and narrow fissure, which after de scending 80 feet opened into a spacious cavern, 150 feet long anti about 30 feet wide, and from 20 to 30 feet high. From the difficulty of descending by this fissure it was lately judged desirable to make an opening in the side of the bill a little below, in a line which might lead directly to the interior of the cave. This gallery had been conducted but a few feet, when the workmen suddenly penetrated another cavern of inferior dimensions to that which they were In search of, and found its floor to be covered, to a depth which has not yet been ascertained, with, a bed of sand, mud and fragments of limestone, through which were dispersed an enormous quantity of bones, horns, and teeth. T he thickness of this mass has been ascertained by a shaft sunk o o one place nearly 40 feet. Many large baskets foil ofx t aond bones have to i t n h t e i tbe de i r already been extracted, belonging chiefly tribes; of the latter there are several varieties, including the elk. There are also a few portions of the skeleton of a wolf, and of a gigantic bear. The bones are mostly in a state of preservation equal to that of common grave bones, although it is clear from the fac t of some of them belonging to the great extinct species of bear, that they are of ante diluvian origin. In the roof of the cave there is a large chimney-like opening, which appears to have commtmi cated formerly with the surface; but which is choaked up with fragments of lime-stone, interspersed with mud and sand, and adhering altogether imperfectly by a stalagmitic incrustation. Through this aperture it is probable the animals till into dt t n h , e y ea w ve h , iinettoi a ll n aleil d ltainvywne t ailneosirs)ifietseellbrlineeyoddvf falling innal p eatt t o.l , i r ais i l o ircmr ni c l i naie l t : nta r hws e r ei c es e rat i d ein: i iel t o t tra g natitii t irl l tie e rst y t e t \ f t ; i ! t s t i l i c e n t a t t i o c u n r i t l e t t l s w i S l i i c i t e rr i t l l s t l in the limestone hills of Derbyshire. There is nothing to induce a belief that it was a den inhabited by hyaenas, like the cave of Kirkdale, or by bears, like those in Germany ; its leading cir cumstances .are similar to those of the ossiferous cavities in the Limestone Hock at Oreston near Plymouth.—The cave at Ban well has within these few days been examined by Professor Buckland, and operations have been commenced for the Imr pose of thoroughly investigating its history and co ntents. rhe Bishop has already sent collections of the bones to the museums of Oxford and Cambridge, and intends to provide a similar supply for all the principal public institutions in this country. On Friday last the following Gentlemen us able lled to the degree of Barristers-at-law, by the Hono Society of Lincoln's-Inn :_Gilbert Henderson Esq. ; John Billingsley Parry, Esq. ; George Jell', Esq. ; Knit Thos.

It letter, dated Munich, 20th October, says— " klis Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave a substantial and excellent dinner to about 600 poor persons, the day before yesterday., in the beautiful ball of the Royal Palace, in com memoration of the ever memorable battle of Lei p zi g ."

JUSTICE said, this was a question ho• far persons having job horses for the day were liable in damages to the owners of the animals for any accident they might receive. This, his Lordship said, was a case which might be of very general occurrence, and as it had not been clearly determined, it was fit to have the principle of law submitted to the consideratioa of all the Judges to whom the proposition hail been mentioned, and they had agreed it should be argued before the whole of them ou the 2d February next.

Foundation.--( Devon Freeholder.) CONTROTIMST lESPECTING TIRR BI !Mt.-A meeting between the Catholic priests and the Clergymen of the Established Church, was held at Carrick-on-Shannon, for the purpose of ar going the propriety of an indiscriminate perusal of the Scriptures. Previously to the meeting, the Magistrates were applied to by several re spectahle Roman Catholics of the town and neighbourhood, to prevent the discussion ; but tl.ey, after a long consultation, refused to inter fere. The Grand Jury room was the place ap pointed for the meeting. The meeting termi nated as might have been foreseen, leaving the parties immediately concerned in it just where it fouud them, equally firm in his own opinion. Although there were but six speakers, the discussion ran to an extraordinary length, and it was not distinguished by any very eloquent or powerful display of oratory. Cuuncii Revemnes IN Russta.—The inc tins of a Metropolitan does not exceed 800!. a-year ; that of an Archbishop 000!.; and of a Bishop 5001. ; sums apparently at small as persons of their rank can possibly subsist on, even in Russia. They are, however, allowed a conllerable sum an nually for the purposes of charity. CAUTION TO S vam.—Two valuable horses belonging to one of the Quorndon Hunt were dearrny ed at Beeby, on Saturday morning last, from suffocation, We understand that the groom had incautiously left a candle burning against a wall while he quitted the stable for some purpose, which falling upon the ground, set fire to some straw, and caused their death a few minutes afterwards. One of the horses is said to have cost its owner more than 200 guineas. EDINDURGYI AND DALKEITII ItAILW A Y.—On this subject, in which the mutual interests of the inhabitants of this city, and of the proprietors and general po', u at:an of the eastern district of the county, are so unveriatly in volved, by the ample supply and cheap conveyance to Edinburgh of coal, lime-stone, grain, and return of goods and manure to the country, we have much satisfacti in referring our readers to the spirited and considerate resolutions of the Noblemen and Gentlemen concerned in that necessary, important, and rational improvement, by which, at. an average distance of five miles, this ci y will be for age* completely supplied with coal, &c. of the best quality.—(Edirs burgh Courtrai.) ORGANIC REMAINS IN Sussex.-- work men employed in forming the tunnel under the road at Kemp town, near Brighton, discovered numerous teeth and bones, which were at that supposed to be part of human skeletons, but upon being examined by a gentleman conversant with alien subjects, were ascertained to belong to the hnrae and elephant. —Similar organic remains are commonly found in thluvial beds, like that on which Brighton is situated, and are evidently the remains of those land-animals which were destroyed by the Deluge. The town is built upon an accumulation of water worae materials which fill up a valley of the chalk. A short time since a rib of a large animal, supposed to be that of an elephant, was discovered in the bank on the west side of Shoreham liar bour. Mr. Mantel' has discovered in the iron-sandstone of this county, the teeth of an herbivirous reptile of a gigantic magni tude. This animal approaches nearer to the Iguana of Barba does, than to any other recent lizard, and it is proposed to dis tinguish it by the name of 'guano-auras. Detached parts of the skeleton, as vertebras, thigh bones, &c. have also ha :n found, of which a particular account will be laid before the scientific public. Mr. Mantel' has part of a thigh bone in his pooh:ssion; which there is every reason to conclude is referable to this ani mal ; its size is so great, that, upon a moderate computation, the individual to which it belonged must have equalled the ele phant iu height, and been upwards of sixty feet long.—(Surs.la Advertiser.) BRUTAL OuTaane.—A man named Thomas Waren was put to the bar at Bow-street Office th:s day, charged with a most wanton and brutal outrage on the person of a young lady named flawlinson, about nine o'clock last night, in Lisle-street, Leicester-square. The prisoner, it s !clu ed, had mistaken the character of the lady, and after a series of unmanly attacks, at length proceeded to violence, and actually knocked her down. Souse porsons, however, came to her aa sistance, and the fellow was taken into custody. lie pleaded inebriation as an excuse, but he was ordered to find good bad for his appearance at the Sessions. Daring Robberies al the Dreagfal Fire last, night.—On very few occasions were the thieves more numerous, or more daring, than on ths present occasion. Deformation was this day given of no less than 17 robberies, and Several of them, we regret to state, of a considerable amount. The Justice Room at Guildhall was this morning crowded.
