On Tnefday morning his difordsr had taken a more favourable turn, and the fever was apparently fo abated, that his Phyfieians encouraged hopes of his recovery; but towards the evening, when the Phyfician, who chiefly attended hilni paid his viuit before taking leave of his patient for the night. he found that ate fever had returned with inereafed vio , lence, and entry fymptom was In aggravated, that all expeaation wits at an end.—lt became now neceffary to declare an opinion. and to acquaint Mr. Pity him- Pelf with the imminent danger. The Bifhop of Lim coca, the oldeß and foodeß friend of Mr. Purr. was called out of the room, and the following opi nion was expreffed to him, nearly in thefe words 44 He cannot live forty-eight hours—the diforder has now taken a mortal turn.--any attempt to route him from his preen lethargy would be attended with inilant death—he is not Itrong enough for medicine, or any reiterative application.—lf he lingers a few days more, it will aftoniar MC" The Bifhop of LINCOLN now taw the neceffity of intimating the danger to Mr. Pity. He fulfilled this painful office with firmnefs ; Mr. Pm. was hardly Venable ; this dreaded (bock had fancely power to chffipate his lethargy ; but after a few moments he waved his hand. and was left alone with the Whop. During the night, his fever continued ; and the Rrong convulfions in his Romach more than once threatened to break up his frame. The Bithop of LINCOLN fat op with ltint.—The Phylicians now thought proper to difcontinue me. dicine.—During the morning of Wednefday repeated enquiries were made after him, and a Ratement of his danger was tranfmitted to hi, MAJI STY, to his relations, and molt of his friends. Lady liesrsa STANHOPE, his niece, and Mr. JAMES &roomers, are laid to have bad an interview with him on Wednef day morning, and to have received his lan adieu. —His brother the Earl of CHATHAM, took his lag farewell late at night. Mr. PITT was fiercely (esti. tile. He could fpeak nothing; he could cxprets elation, gratitude, and hope, only by figns.— The Bifhop of Liticusw continued with him all night. The mortal tymptoms were now approaching to a crifis. kis extremities were already cold, and his fettles began to fail. As aIA and tie - perste effort to prntraa life, Millers were applied to the foles of his feet. They reltored him to fomtthing of life and recolleliorb but they could arra nothing of the pro igrefs of death. It is Paid that he continued cle ar an d i c ompofed till a Runt time before bit diffolution, which took place without much addition of fuffering or !flruggle at half pall four on yefterday mowing. As the public curiofity has been much excite re fpcaing the loft moments of Mr. Prix, we hay. an thwity to mention the following particular's— Upon titling informed by the .Bifhop of Ltecota of his precarious Rate, Mr. Pitt inilantly expreffed 'himfelf perfealy reigned to the Di.Vlllll MILL, and, with the uturofk compofure, afked Sir W PAR/113H me, who was prefect, how long he might ex , pea to live; Mr. Pity then entered into a converfation of Come length with the Bifhop of Lracoto upon religious fubjeas. He repeatedly declared, in the Rrongeß term. of humility, a fenfe of his own nnworthinefs, ' and e, firm reliance upon the mercy of go., through the merits of CHRIST. After this, the Ili(bop of LINCOLN prayed by his bed-fide for a confiderable time ; ■nd Mr. PITT ap• peared greatly compofed by thefe lilt duties of Re ligion. Mr. PITT. afterwards proceeded to make Come arrangements and requeßs concerning his own pri vote affairs: and declared, that HI DIIID IN rs♦ca WITN ♦LL I.IAMILIND The death of Mr. Pirr it, at might be expated, the fubjelt of general conarerfati9p. In announcing this event yellerday we purpofely avoided, as we now avoid, entering into any ftrillnres nn his political eha rafter, which, at the prefent moment, cannot be of fered without fohjelling the writer to the imputation of /lane and rallanefs, though fcveral of our contem poraries, pnffelfed by a kind of intuitive faculty of writing, without fraying any thing, feem no way fearful of injuring the fame of a departed flateman, of whole eh:tea/ler they are no more qualified to Ipealce than they are to fillthe officer and employments left vacant by bit death. We cannot however avoid mentioning i prevailing trait in the general expreffion of Opinions, which dots honour to the charaller of the nation.— In all convellttions repelling the deceafcd, all party and prtcal feeling feesns to be laid afiele, and his charade is appreciated fairly sad booonray . . .bl as a s man. To appreciate our departed Wainer, as a Pond. ciao, is a work of hitiorical invelligation's to forth an eftimate of his pe►fonal enaownsents t to feu the lineament*, and to deferibe the chiratteriilics of bil great mind, Ibould indeed be the till' of thole who knew bins privately as well as publicly i but, fill, while chi moral influence of his gedius is operating on l'(%ciety, and while the found of his eloquence is %et 41$ it . were echoing in the public tar, name of Ms. Ps yr cannot be mentioned without fuggeding rdidlions on the wonderful peculiarities of the man. gI)M the earliell expantion of his hopeful talents, se ttou J for .h as o:dgiced by deftiny as welt as bbib. •I right, to fill the Ration, and to emulate the talents of Chatham.—lf he was not born an orator, he was earlier trained to oratory than any flatefman of the age.—ln watching over the kright prngrefs of his Audits, and anticipating his future fame, his father was not deceived by parental partiality. The young eaglet looked undazzled like his fire to the blaze of glory and pre-eminence.—Even when a boy, his ta lents fo► declamation were fo prompt and ambitious, that when Lord C one day heard of his tutor's intention to take him along with his elder brother to hear the debates is the Houk of Lords, he forbade him, laying to the tutor, " You may take the eldefi, but I will not allow WILLIAM to got for I am fore that he would rife up and fpeak, if he heard any thing that did not agree with his opinion." CHATHAM knew the full value of promptitude, copioufnefs, and energetic declamation to a Paths v./Rotary flaterman, a$ he forefaw his fon was to be, and he moulded the fine elements of his genius for that purpofe. Never did loch materials for the for.. mation of rhetoric. fall into the hands of fuck a teacher. By early praaice, guidance, and encou ragement, our Miniller, poffeffing by nature a rich fountain of intelleetual images, was taught to ar range, to beautify. to amplify, and fwell the order and progrefs of his thoughts, which were sot reluaantly brought out in debate, but evolved with a fpontaneotis promptitude which had an in. fluence almoft like magic. The quickell and thong eft imaginations are longtime* arrelled in the courfe of their eloquence, by accidental croffing of thoughts, and forced into confufion and hefitation —but the order of Mr. Perr's ide . as feemed for ever to be fo marthalled that nothing broke or confufed them. Even when betrayed by the richnefs of his imagination into parenthefis, involution, or deviation s he never wanted exuberant language, be never loft himfelf, or needed to halt for a new arrangement. To fuch a power of extempore declamation and reafoning was Mr. PITT formed by nature, and in butted by art. This talent was habitual in the fon. The burfts of Cmarmast's eloquence were indeed extempore, but it was not the fpontaneoufnefs of difcipline, it was the elearic fire and promptitude of nature. But C ,to be truly great, needed to be roufed—the god did not defcend but when the occafion was worthy of a god. Often, very often—nay almoft always, when the fubjea fell fliort•of his ta lents, CHATHAM was cold, embarraffed, and ongrace. ful.• Even at the beginning of his lunches (unlefs they were (lion, and evoked fuddenly by fume animat ing occafion), he (truck his audience as ettonithingly inferior to what he became, when the rubjea had wound up his mind to the full pitch of its eoergy.— m Mr. PITT was, on the contrary, uniformly rich, Ito !mintier, and prepared. But Rill this extempore faculty was often more in word than thought. He ()coal:many covered flimfy reafoning with luxuriant Terbiage—CHATHAM never did. Mr. PITT bad not ideas to fill his language—Caarn aet bad not ;.9. guage. The tongue of man had not language to convey the vehement force of his thoughts.-,- Mr. PITT was prepared by habit to (peak, think, and reafon, extemporaneoufly on every fuhjea in the wide circle of his cares. C/I•TN•M had pre pare/ his thoughts on them in the clofet, and for words he united to the native powers of his mind, to awaken the moll natural expteffions when the rublea had routed the full et thufiafm of his fpirit. He (poke more from natural feeling t his cootie was lets mi ll on, but his excellencies greater. He was more of aii Orator than his Son. Mr. PITT NIS eloquent, but his eloquence approached the Rhetorician nearer than the Orator. The reports to-day relative to the probablefueceffiir of Mr. PITT were numir t ots and eontradiaory. Some Rated, that the Oppoetsof would immediately Arc ceed to power; but the mop general and prevalent opinion was, that the Marquis W LLLLL LIY and Lord SILIMOUTH would be called to tii4 Kijarry's Conn cils, the latter as Fite Lord of the Treafury (the! Chancellorthip of the Exchequer to be feparated ' from that Office, and to be held by Lo'id CASTLII• IsAG it), and the former as one of the Prineipso Secre taries of State. Upon this fubjee, however, ails at prefent is mere conjeeure. A Council (ennfilli , pg of all the Members of the Cabinet, except L ' rd CHATHAM), was held lel night, probably upon this important occafion ; but the refult, of courfe, will not tranfpire until it has been fubmitted to His Ma. jelt y, for his approbation. Mr. PITT, it i. generally known, was the fecond fon cc that truly Mulls ious Statcfman 'and celebrated Misiiiler, the late WILLIAM PITT, Earl of CMAI HAM, by Lady HESTER GRYNYILLII, the after of the late Earl Tim, Li, and celebrated Ounce Gitxri and aunt to the prefent Marquis of BUCRiNGHAM and Lord Gataitics: * He wastiorn at Hayes, in Kent, on the zBth of May, 1759, the year in which hii tber'striamphant and fuccefsful Adminifirationwas at its zenith. The education of his early years, and the ilitassets et his knowledge, were acquired with • . private baton, under the immediate eye and correc. tusti of his father, who, even at a very early peririd, &HOW is teaching him to argue with logical demi, and to (peak with elegance and force. At the early age of fifteen, Mr. Pire was taken from &wee tic tuition, which was latterly under the fuperinten. dame of that accomplifhed fcholar, the late Rev. Dr. Wmemi, and entered 4'enabroke Colleg, in the UM verSty Cambridge. 'He was there chidly undec, the guidance and tuition of Dr. Tomtit, now Dca:. of Norwich, and the celebrated Dr. PasTrrstAN, now Dean of London and Bishop of Lincoln ; the Lauer had previoutly been fume time engaged in Ailing in Mr. Purr's private tuition and, as far as cal and mathematical attainments, a better choice perhaps could not have been made. With refpeet to the important powers of eloquence, the baR inftrutaa of his day was certainly the late Earl of C me. Yelerday, about one o'clock, his Ma lime' arrived in his travelling chariot, from Windfor, at St.janses'a Palace. About two o'clock, his Maisary being feated on his Throne, received the Addrefs of tit Univerfity of Cambridge, on the glorious tatter obtained by the late Lord Maim, over the Com bined Fleets of the enemy. In the abliece of the Chancellor, his Addrefs was prefented by' the Vice Chancellor of the Univerfiry, who came up in Sate, accompanied by all the principal Officers of the Uni verfity, and an nnufual number of Clergy, and of the Students. About half pea two o'clock the Lord Chancellor came in Sate from the Houfe of Lords, attended by the Earl of Essex and Lord Vikount Carleton (the mover and feconder of the Addrefs), and a confider. able number of Peers, and his Majelty was pleafcd to receive, on the Throne, the Addrefs of the Houfe of Peers, on his Allajefty's Speech to both Hodes of Parliament. Abut three o'clock the Speaker of the Honk of Commons came in (late from the Houfe, attended by Lord Francis SMICIR, Mr. AlllBl.ll, and fevered other Members of Parliament, sad Wonted o his Majeßy on the Throne the Addrefs of tilt Honfe of Commons.—These were prefent -1 Ambling') 0 Cbmgertery.
