To the politeness of passengers in the ship Achiiies, wt are indebted tor a file of Antigua papers, latest date 19th •September, from tliese and the informaton of the pas- sengers themselves, we learn that the yellow fever had Been raging with great violence at Antigua for several weeks, and caused a dreadful mortality among those of <heinhabitants who were not thorougidyiseasnucd to the climate; among the natives, however, and those who were inured to the climate, the effects of the disease were but slightly experienced. The contagion was brought to Antigua in a vessel from Guadaloupe, where it is said to have swept off nearly one third of the inhabitants. The company of Commedians from this place, who have been for Some time past performing in the West-Indies, were at Antigua when the fever commenced its ravages; Mr. Jieaumont, the manager, and Mrs. Van Zioidt, one of the actress, soon caught the infection and died. The rest of the company, however, under the auspices of another manager, of the name of Allport, continued playing not- withstanding the awful mortality which surrounded them. St. John’s, (Antigua) September 19. We feel sincere regret at being ag* in obliged to record ih' oar mortuary list for thrtpast week the names of those, ■who in that short space of time, have fallen victims to the Fever that has now too long prevailed here. The storm of Monday lasttdisposed us to hope that its violence would"hivc been abated in consequence of the change in the weather; in this, however, we have been painful ly disappointed, as each succeeding day has added one or more names to the melancholy list. With some few exceptions, the fever has been confined to persons who have resided here but a short time. A severe shock of an earthquake was felt at Dominica on the I3tli ult. but we are informed no damage was sus tained from it. Moxtbsai, October 5.

On Saturday at noon the inhabitants of New-Orleans were startled by the fire bell. Vvith their usual alacrity they repaired to the scene—but such was the suddenness anil fury of the conflagration that before the alarm could be spread through town, the whole neighborhood where the calamity originated, was enveloped in flames. We are unwilling to allude to the cause of this disaster; but it isrthe imperious and indispensable duty of the corpo ration to prevent a recurrence of an accident from the same cause, and they have it in tlieir power to do so. The fire first caught in the new building of Mr. John Davis, adjoining the Orleans theatre in Orleans street— the -wind was very high at the time, and the houses in the neighborhood being dry in consequence of a long drought, the destruction spread with unparalleled ra pidity. Three sides of the square, viz: Orleans, from Royal to Hourbon street—Bourbon/ 1 from Orleans to St. Anne street, and St. Anne halfway to Royal street, are totally destroyed; while the square above, viz: the upper side of Orleans street from Royal to Bourbon, Bourbon from Orleans to Sf. Peter street, and nearly the whole of the tower and upper side of St. Pete?street, be tween Royal and Bourbon streets, are likewise destroy ed. Had it not been for the prompt and powerful suc cour afforded by major Many with a detachment of Unit ed States’ soldiers, the fl.unes would have spread to the square including the principal, the prison and the cathe dral, tfie consequences of which in ail probability**would have been that one half the city would at this momeut be a heap of desolation. At about 3 o’clock r. itr. the fire slackened, more in consequence of the lulling of the wind than of the exer tions of the citizens—these though very ardent an4 vigo rous, were almost neutralised’for want of the necessary .implements. . . _ The Indians appear somewhat dissatisfied at our pun ning lines, not knowing, or not - wishing to know whaj.it* meansiamlnot understanding the treatywhich they signed some ye.iuw ago. There is but little danger iqiprehended. of their commencing hostilities.

He defeated the In dians, who-'lost 7 killed, whom he found, and a- great number wounded, (but supposed many more were kil led;) he brought in 44 packs of beaver, or 4,400 lbs. He llas returned with a party of about 40 men, to the moun tains, to stay two years. “It Is astonishing in what numbers the people are' flocking to this country, from every state, and of every desoript*"^ Toon’s settlement, which a short time since compnsetFonly a few scatn-rmg cabins, in an immense forest, and settled by the wild and uncultivated, has now become a county with, courts of justice, and men of .11 professions; and will soon resemble a city, with all its politeness, comforts and civilization.” AVe understand, that his excellency, governor Poset, the honorable judge Parke, and Mr. Sharpe, are ap pointed commissioners to tiegociate with the Miamies.

MELANCHOLY EVENT. Just as our paper was this day going to press, a funerab with a long train of mourning coaclies, passed the door.

We are authorised to say, that Charles Wilkins, esq. of Kentucky, (the gentleman who first discovered and possessed her,) immediately presented her to the American Antiquarian Society; and that he never autho rised her exhibition in any part of the United States.

Brown, esq. iias just returned from a summer’s jaunt to England, in which he was accompanied by Mrs. B. There having been no jury trials in civil cases, at June #rni, *s usual, on account of the heat of the season, he has, without ionsing a single court, resumed his piuiice. Mr. B. left Philadelphia op the 17th of June, and returned on the 29th September. The laborious practice of the law obliges gentlemen in extensive business, to make journics to the Spriggs, Falls ofNigara, Canada, &c. to recruit tlieir health; but never before lias so extraordinary an excur sion taken place as the present. Mr. B. has, no doubt, derived much general knowledge from his visit to the curiosities of England, as well as great as professional advantages from seeing the courts of justice. He has heard 'lie arguments of the ablest lawyers, and the char ges of the most distinguished judges of Great Britain; has made two voyages between the oid and new world; and has returned to his office after an absence of only 104 days, 40 of which he s ,ent in England, principally in and about London. Greatly recruited in health, he will no doubt be enable to pursue his professiou with additional plea sure, industry and effect. From an English Paper> THEATRIC PUFFING.
