By letters received from Gibraltar, via France, to
the 25th ult. it appears that all apprehensions from the
fever have ceased. The few cases that occur are of
so mild a nature, as to induce a belief that in a very
short time the contagion would entirely disappear.
. Private accounts from Paris state the arrest of Ge.
neral DUPOLIA and a large party of persons assembled
with him ata coffee-house. No notice of the event.
indeed, appears in the French Papers ; nor, perhaps.
was it absolutely .necessary that the Government
should put the accomplices of these crimit.ale on their
guard, by a premature disclosure of the fact. or of its
causes. More especially were secrecy and decision,
necessary on this occasion-, it the plot was of the din-
, bolical nature which we have heard hinted.
By the arrival of his Majesty's frigate Nk:nens at
I Portsmouth from the river Plate, we learn that soon
after the capitulation of Monte Video was agreed to
by the Governor. VtGonsr, a difference of opinion
arose between the contracting parties, and the Gover-
nor hesitated to fulfil the conditions of the treaty.—.-
Mao/iv:1;1e an Officer, serving under the Captain Ge-
neral, who had separated himself, with many fol-
lowers, from Buenos Ayres troops, was detected
conveying a letter to VIGODET, encouraging the latter
to resist the giving up of the fortress, and promising
that his Captain General would come to his succour
with his forces, to the amount of 1500 men. Upon
the discovery of this affair, Ai-yeas, the Buenos-
Ayres General, resolved on an insmedi:,te attack of
the fortress, and succeeded, sword in hand, in taking
%Tit:toper, the Governor, and the whole of the garri-
son, prisoners. ALVEAR, upon this success, antici-
pating the arrival of the Captain General and his
party, went out to meet them, and after a short
action put the whole to the route. The garrison of
Monte Video then volunteered to join the cause of
Buenos Ayres, and the Governor, VIOODIST, was sent
prisoner on board a ship bound to Buenos Ayres.
The arrival of the intelligence at Chili of the suc-
cess of the armies of Buenos Ayres over the Monte.
videaiis, was the signal for a counter-revolution there
also. The politics of Buenos Ayres, whatever they
may be, are, therefore, likely to spread throusboot
the richest provinces of New Spain.

DEURY•LANE.—Last night Miss WALSTEIN, who
has so long held the most distinguished place on the
-Dublin Theatre, made her first appearance in Lon-
don in the character of Calistar The most lively ex-
pectation was excited in the public mind by the an-
nouncement of Miss WALSTEIN—since the deserved
success of a Lady who had only held a second place
in the estimation of the Irish audience naturally led
the amateurs to hope that in the principal they would
find transcendant talents. This very expectation ag-
gravati d the danger and difficolty of the ordeal that
the Lady had to undergo, for she not only had to bear
up against the acknowledged eminence of her rival.
in the public esteem, but against the prejudice of first
impressions, and against the favour which is sure to
be attached to youthful beauty. It is no slight praise
to. Miss WALSTELN to say, that in a conirtioon so ar-
duous, she asserted and maintained her claim to the
suffrages of the public ; for though her talents will
in no degree abate the popularity of Miss O'Neate
she displayed powers of mind, and qualities of organic
fitness for the higher characters of the 'Tama that
justly entitle her to commendation. Her face is pecu-
liarly adapted to histrionic expression ; it is perfectly
Siddonian. Her eye is brilliant and piercing—the
eye-brow full and finely arched—the features, when
softened to tenderness, bewitchingly seductive—awl
when animated by indignation, strong and command;
tog. Her fault is a sententious delivery of the text,
more in the style of sonorous recitation than of natu-
ral speaking 7 .With a voice truly musical and capa-
ble 6f the finest modulation, its effect on the ear is
weakened" by the measured and equal distance at
which she brings forth the words, and by. which the
rhythm and harmony of the verse are affected. This
was'particularly noticeable in the declamatory pas-
sages—but where she Wad to display the vehement or
tender emotions of the soul; her feelings seemed to
break through the restraint which habit had imposed
on her tongue, and she gave the passages in the scene
of violent indignation with Horatio, and of penitent
sensibility with her father, in a way to touch the sym-
pathies of the House, and to procure her universal ap-
plause. Porn was truly pathetic in Sciolto: an hysteri-
cal emotion in the pit bore testimony to die influence of
his tones, in the fine scene with Caine. Eitorros
wai an excellent Lothario ; RAE was a very correct
and animated Horatio, and WALLACrc made the dull
part of Altanient unusually respectable. The curtain
tell apsidst thunders of applause, and the Play was
announced for repetition with like approbation.

general. Mr. KEMBLE was the Sir Giles Overreach; he
displayed his usual emitter t merit, and was greeted
• with unbound•:d applause. CONWAI'S Wellborn was,
on the whole, a very able perform..nce, and evinced
great improvement. Mr. TERRY gave great import-
ance to the character of Marail.

Thursday night, as Mr. Baas'', of Piccadilly, tvas
going into Covent Garden Theatre, he was robbed of
his pocket-book, eontainizT a £lO bank note.
Foot? .---:-About half past ten, on Saturday
night, Mr. PARTRIDGE, of 1 °Otani-terrace, Islington,
was robbed by three footpads of his watch and seals,
a half,guinca, and silver, while crossing the fields of ,
the Shepherd and Mepherdess: They beat. him on
the back of the head with !Wt. pistols.
Mr. GALE, of wham, was, a few evenings since,
robbed of a one pound note and silver, by three gen-
teely dressed men, near Martingham-lane, on the
• Kent.road. They snatched his umbrella, and beat

him over the head with it.
Thursday night, Mr. BRIAN% of the Hope and
Anchor public house, Camden Town, was km.cked
down between the Adam and Eve public house and

Camden Town, and robbed of his watch.
Monday se'nnight, about half past four o'elock in
the morning, a fire was discovered at Pound Farm,
near Ryde, in the occupation of Farmer John Raw-
kins, which raged with such fury that in a short I
time barns, stables, and nearly twelve ricks of corn I
and hay, were blazing, beyond the possibility of being
eztinguished ; fortunately the house and granary
were preserved. The loss is supposed to be nearly,
£2OOO. A man and a maid-servant have been com-
mitted to prison, on suspicion of having occasioned.
this calamity.
kits, Tatu.s.—At a Meeting of. the. Faculty of
Procurators of Glasgow, called to con Oder the sub-
ject of a jury trial in cavil causes, it was resolved, that
to dispense to Scotland, extensively and conveniently,
the full benefit of a jury in civil causes, it seemed in-
ciispensibly necessary, that the Court should, at pro.
per intervals, sit in the principal towns of those dis.
tricts where the parties and witnesses reside, and where
alone juries could be found sufficiently conversant in
those cases, respecting shipping insurance, commerce,
and manufactures, which form the fittest objects of
jury trial that the same conveniettcy to the public
usluires the restoration to the Sheriff of the ancient
and constitutional practice of trying civil causes by
the aid of a jury. Similar resolutions have been
adopted by the County of Ayr.
