A letter from Kingston, Jamaica, dated th,-
/Ith of February, states that his Majesty's ship Helicon 11.4:1
arrived from Honduras with information that the Govern-
ment of Guatimala had imitated the example of the other new
American States in issuing an order for the expulsion of th
European Spaniards. This step was taken in consequence of
some intrigues and secret communications with Havannah, dis-
covered to be carrying on in Truxillo, by some Spmiards, with
a priest at their head, for the purpose of again hoisting the.
Royalist flan. Attempts of a similar nature had been disco-
vered in different parts of Gautimala.
There is not the slightest foundation for t
report circulated yesterday of a serious misunderstanding hav-
ing taken pace between Mr. STitATFoaD CANNING
and the Russian Ministry, on the subject of the affairs of
Greece. On the contrary, every thing is proceeding in tiie
most amicable and satisfactory mailmen

Roy Ar. ACADEMY OF Music.-A Concert of
Vocal and Instrumental Music took place last night, in the
Hanover-square Hooms, for the Benefit of this Institution.
Strong prejudices prevailed against the Institution before and
'
on its establishment, under the patronage of his .MaJEsTv, as
it wassupposed that the Musical lb a rket would be overstocked'
to the injury of existing Professors and their pupils. But those
prejudices seem to be gradually wearing off, on the considera-
tion that the Professors themselves and their Pupils would tie
too well settled in general repute before the Students of this
Academy could rise into formidably rivalry, and that parents
and guardians, viewing the progress and illustrious patronage,
would therefore be induced to choose various occupations rot
those under their care, rather than devote them to music and
the consequent danger of want of employment. Hence the oto-
jections to the Academy begin to disappear, and it is now pre-
sumed that the Institution will flourish, and contribute to bet.
prove the Art, and give increased reputation to its Professors.
The Concert of last night was creditable to the Institution, in
point of selection and performance. We have no space for par-•
titulars ; but in justice to the pupils we ought at least to men-
tion their names. In the Vocal Department Misses M. BELL-
CHAMBERS, PORTER, J. BELLCHAMBERS, and GRANT,
chiefly distinguished themselves. In the Instrumental, .Aliss
CHANCELLOR, Masters CHARLES LUCAS, MAWES, PRICE,
SEYMOITR, and W. H. PHIPPS, were most prominent. Sone
of the vocal compositions were encored, and the Concert is
general received the approbation of a numerous audience.
TAE SOCIETY OF BRITISH ARTISTS, whose
Institution commenced last year, yesterday-
opened their Spacious Rooms in Suffolk-street,
Pall-mall East, to gratify their friends and
many well known amateurs, with a private view
of their present Exhibition. The first Exhibi-
tion was last year, and it is no more than justice
to say, that the Artists have employed the interval'
highly to their advantage, as the Exhibition, OR
the whole, displays evident marks of improvement.
The Institution arose in consequence of the
want of sufficient space in the ROYAL. ACADEMY
for a considerable number of the efforts of
genius which were annually sent to it, and which,
therefore, must have remained obscurely in pri-
vate houses, and have been denied the advantage
of public notice and the hope of liberal patron-
age. Its origin, therefore, was founded in
justice to themselves, not on envious rivalry, but
honourable emulation. In the cursory view
which we took yesterday, and under the pressure
of temporary matter, we have no room for any
remarks on the particular merits of the rooms this
day, but shall take an early opportunity of
suming the subject, and endeavour to.pay adt3q
tribute of praise to the respective Artists.
