fallowing is an extract ef a letter (roman
°dicer ou bond his Majesty's ship ANTELOPE, dated
Biihtiines, July 2:—
" is tn.ty he }notifying to know, that the ships
hoe composing the peace establishment, viz. Ante.
lope, Tigris, Scamander, Brazen, and Childers, are
each niely heahhy at present, and have all bei n so
since their artival, except the fast, that ship having
suffered considerably 'flan what is vulgarly called
yellow fevsr—a disease which has not been noticed
in these islands since the year 1810. The same dis.
ease has Lady made its appearance on shore within
the last 'week, and several cases have terminated
fatally ; its ravages, however, as yet, are by no means
extensive. As ti:e hurricane months are about to
appear, it is presumed the Antelope will pass that
period at. Trinidad, an island seldom, if ever, visited
by any very tempestuous weather."
The BADGER 5100,) of war, C Train Hon. C. 0.
Bainc,Exias, arrived last week at Portsmouth, Item
the Letwat-d Islands station, to be paid off, having
been relieved by the &AWARDER, Capt. %V. ELLIOTT,
from Spithead, tined for the Peace service. The
BaoGeft was the only ship remaining on the station,
upon the War establishment. She left Bat badota on
.the sth, Guadalotspe on the Bth, and Antigua on the
10th u4imo. The ANTELOPE, Admiral HaavEv,
&AWARDER', TIGRIS, and CHILDERS, were at the last-
mentioned Island. All the Leeward ldands were
healthy; and tranquillity bad been completely restored
in all of thEm. Barbadoes was still under martial
law, but Sir JAHES LEITH was proceeding from Gua-
d.sloupe to that Island, for the purpose of suspending
it. WASIIIISOTOR EDWARDS, the Chief in the late in-
surrectionary commotion, was executed on the 3d ult.
Trade was very doll throughout the Islands.
► The accounts from South America, by the BADGER.'
are very satisfactory to the friends_ f the Independent
sI
party. The great effects anticipated front the arena-
went which Spain lately sent out, having been over-
come, the Independents had recovered possession of
the Islands of North Guarauna (which lie at the
mouth cf the Great River Oroonoco) and thereby
obtained many hundred miles of uninterrupted com-
munication with their partisans in the interior.
The Poona sloop of war, Captain WILSON, which
arrived at Portsmouth on Wednesday, from Halifax,
left the ACBAR there. Admiral GRIFFITH was waiting
the arrival of Admiral.MlLNE, to relieve bin. The
POIUM gas :tailed for Sbeeraeu to be paid off.

A New l'iece, called Illy Landlady': Grim, was
performed at the Haymarket Theatre on Saturday
night, and was very favourably received.
Kiso's TireArinc.--This Theatre closed its season
on Saturday night, amidst the hearty cougraridations
of the must numerous auditory we have beheld during
the present year ; an auditory, we pest:use to think,
warm in the prosperity of the undertaking, as well as
in the interest of its present director.—{pia zAnr's
beautit ul composition of Coil Fan Tu:ti was jirdicionsly
chosen to close the season, and iV3S as usual emit&
si:e:y performed. Before the entionencement of the
b diet the curtain rose and introduced the entire cons.
piny if the Theatre, lull dressed, and in appearance
abut 300. The effect was imposing in the extreme,
especially as worded
were nearly 'all foreigners, and the
only means afforded them of shearing their gratitude
to an English audience, by the very proper introduc-
tion of the national air of .4 Goo have the King." It
was sung admirably, and encored with enthusiastic
plaudits. The performers then retired with the
most respectful and becoming deference. Le Prince
T'soukertlovr followed, and was received with uncom-
mon marks of approbation..
It is but justice to say that the Opera this year has
been conducted with great ability. In the lieu of the
Miserable trash of Modern works, which, in the time
-of Madame CATALANI, were nightly obtruded on the
town, we have been gratified with the fineit produc-
tions of MOZART, and by the unrivalled powers of
Mr. BRAHAU, the exquisite talent of Madame FOciort,
assisted by Madame VitsTins and Madame Leriogri
Mr. LEirASsEVR, Mr. Goa, Mr. Becrat, and others,
these Operas have been represented in a manner to
gratify the most critical ear. At no time hat the
Ballet been so ably supported, since at nO one time
have we had so aunt good dancers. Madamoirelk
MILAN!;, Madame BAPTISTE, Madame LEON, Ma-
damoiselle MAncitst, Mademoiselle Nistassi, Miss
'rowdily, and Miss MORI, are all good dancers.
And the two VESTats, Mr. BAririv; Mr. Laos, Mr.
OSCAR BERNE. &C. supported theutivith great ability.
An trulation was kept up by allowing the principal
dusters to bring out each Ms' own pallet ; and
throughout the season we have been gratified with
