ralty agent, Lieut. Percival, R.N. Her dates aro :

cent, 30; Antigua, Dec. 30; St. Thomas, 4th inst.

It would appear from the last accounts from
Yucatan that there was a temporary cessation of
hostilities between the Indians and tho Yuc,.tans,
and that the town of Bacalar still continues in the
possession of the latter.
According to Jamaica newspaper accounts
the weather had changed, and it was hoped
that cholera would soon disappear. It was
still, however, very virulent in some places;
the small pox is also scourging some parts of the
island. A public meeting had taken place at King-
ston to make arrangements for the establishment of
a steam packet communication between Jamaica and
the Spanish Main.

From Demerara we learn that the election for
Essequibo has terminated in the triumphant return
of the government candidate.
On the 30th of December a public meeting was to
take place in George Town, to cooperate with tho
Ar.ti-Slavery Society in London, in making two
appeals, ono to the British parliament, the other
to the British government.
During tho last fortnight the weather had been
delightful. The present year's crop will consider-
ably exceed that of 1850.
From New Granada we learn that slavery was to
be abolished throughout the republic on tho first of
January.

FARMING Paoseacrs.—We have just learned, on
the very best authority, with respect to an extensive estate
in Fermanagh, that of the last gale of rent the arrears un-
paid do not amount to 3401. This is very satisfactory, both
as r.spects the relations of the landlord an-I tenant and the
condition and prosperity of the latter.—Berfast Mercury
