As early as nine o'clock this mottling, the City was thrown into great este-Ono, by the report of the sheath of Kr. Cannata ; and at the first opening Of the Como* market, a genital panic took place, all parties fearing either to purchase or sell: at*.begth a price was made, and Consols opened at 87 sellers for the Account, with a very agitated market ; bet within this half hour, the market has become more calm, and Consols have been date at 87j, and for Notary 87 to j, caused by a report that Mr. CAMIIIMI was rather better, and passed a more favourable night. Great anxiety is felt In the City for the perisal of this morning's Bulletin, as it will have a great effect on the British market. It is almost oselesoto quote any price of the Foreign Securities, as nothing is thought if except the health of Mr. CAPXIIIIO. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

MR. CANNING. ' This distinguished Statesman, we regret to say, is most dangerously indisposed. For the last three weeks be has been very unwell, and on Saturday and Sunday se'noight this indisposition increased; notwithstanding which Mr. Caminito waited on his Manisa:, at the Royal Lodge, on Monday last. On Tuesday be came to town, and transacted business at his house in Down ing-street. On Thursday be became so much worse, that be was confined to his bed, with sysupturnsof itifiantroa tion, which, in the course of Friday and Saturday, be- came more urgent. The following Bulletin was issued yesterday morning : (eon). • 4 We regret to state,diat Mr. Canning is suffering under a very severe attack of inflammation.

" Chiswick, lialfpast &Tea o'Clock, Meads! hicenue PROM THR COURT CIRCULAR. The 'linen of the Right Honourable Gentleman, we regret to say, has been gradually increa si ng from Tuesday till Friday, when it became serious; on which day a King's messenger was dlr. patched to Mr. PLATT..., at his seat at Fairlorn, near Hastings,wltO Ma edia tel y came to town, and thence proceeded to Chiswick. -Several Medical Gentlemen were called in to attend a consultation, hour of whom remained all night at Chiswick. During Saturday, frequent communications were sent to his Massarr, at the Royal Lodge ; to the Lout Cur...cam-on, and all the Cabinet Ministers. Ou Saturday evening, the symptoms became alarming; silt Me dical Gentlemen remained in attendance all night. The Right Honourable Gentleman, however, was a little better yesterday morning, who. the first Bulletin was issued. Copies of the Bulletin were forwarded to the king and all the Cabinet Ministers. The Medical Gentlemen had another consultation yesterday at two o'clock, the result of which was also forwudest to his Majesty and the Ministers. The Might Honourable Gentleman has undergone the operation of capping several times since his indisposition. The Duke of GLOVCISTIS. Prince EITILIMAZT, most of the Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers, the Marquis of Mintage, the Starlet HARILOWST, Mr. HOTIISOHILD, dte. &c. were among the Mi lliken.' Inquirers on Saturday and yesterday, at the residence of the Hight Hon. Gentleman in Downing-street. In consequence of a serious change in the state of Mr. Caren's, the Medical Gentlemen held another consultation about saves o'clock yesterday evening, after which they issued the second alaredog Dahlia ; circulars of which, with additional particulars, were seat round to the Cabinet 31iniiters, sal of whom are in Town. The inquiries this morning at the Foreign Office, and at Mr. CANNING . S town house, were very numerous indeed. Messengers are dispatched frequently, and orders have been istuSd to some of the King's Messengers to prepare for immediate foreign missions. The physi* clans were in attendance during the whole of the night, and the most anxious inquiries have been made at , every point where information tan be obtained, w much anxiety has the critical situation of alt. CA nips* excited. LATEST INTELLIGENCE, THatil MCLOCIL In addition to the above, we feel some slight conso lation in stating, that at the date of the very last ac counts that have reached Downing-street this after noon, the situation of the Right Hon. Gyttleman had not altered for the worse. We received this morning Brussels Papers to the 4th instant. They notice a very serious accident, which happened to the Queen of the NETHERLANDS on the night of the 31st ult. Having taken a bath at a late hour, she stumbled as she was getting out of it, and broke one of her right sibs'in the fall. Her Maaeary, who was unattended at the time, paid no attention to the circumstance at first, and was so little aware of the injury she had sustained, that she went to bed, without apprising any one of what had occurred. It was not till two hours afterwards, that the Princess MARI ANNE, hearing her august mother move, went into the apartment, end persuaded her to send for me• died aid immediately. Three Bulletins have hoist , published, of which the-last, which is elated the' Cid, says, that " the Quexx had a slight fever yesterday, which ceased towards the reaming, and returnYd during 'part of the night.' As soon is it .was ascertained that the accident was of a serious nature, an express was sent to the Kota, who was in Hasid, and another to the King of PRITESIA, who ilbrother to her Maszarr. These Papers contain accounts from Berths of the 1 30th ult. announcing that Ahe'KINO had left that city for Toplita, Viers he would remain till the end of the present me a nt his Ministers had also set out for , different w elt g places. These account. also stale.' that a copy* of- the Treaty for the pacification of Greece bad, been received in that city, and though long expected, had produced a great sensation. They add that; il4Prassia is not a party to it, it is merely became!' she is not a maritime power; and they further add, 41 that it is certain that they Prussiae Cabfpet fully approves the prineigles of the i Treaty, to which it has acceded by recognising it, though it cannot co-operate in its execution." This intelligence is important, as well as gratifying, as it will no doubt influence the conduct of the Austrian Cabinet, besides convincing the Porte that it has no diversion to expect from . , Christian Power in its favour, should it be mad eneish to prefer an open rupture with the three most powerful States in Europe, to a compliance with their just, reasonable, and humane demands. We also received this morning liamborgh Papers to the Ist inst. from which we learn that the Russian fleet left the roads of Copenhagen on Wednesday week for its ultimate destination. Before its departure. Admiral Smarm engaged several experienced Danish pilots, to accompany it as far as Dover. An article, under the head of St. Petenburgh, July 18, says that the Directing Senate has chosen four of its members to go to Warsaw, as Commissioners to pass sentence on the Polish conspirators. The Emperor in confirming this appointment, signified to the Minister of Justice, that they must defer their departure till farther orders. We received in like manner the Algerneine Zeitung and Frankfort Papers this morning, both to the SOth ulr. but they are wholly destitute of important news.— It will, be seen by the following extract that the young Duke of Baum:mug has arrived in the Austrian capital, for the avowed purpose of soliciting the Emperor of Amara to become mediator between him and the King of HANOViII: • 411,,N‘ VIENNA. Jinx 25. " The Emperor and Empress arri►ed here this after noon, and will stay till tomorrow. It is said that the object of the Duke of Brunswick's visit is to get his Majetty the Emperor to act as mediator in the dispute which has arisen between his Highness and the King of Hanover, and it may therefore be hoped, that this affair will soon be arranged. His Highness has been received with great attention by theirlrnperial Majesties." _Demerara Papers arrived this morning to the 20th of June. The following is from the Guiana Chronicle: • Our correspondent bean hard upon the celebrated Bolivar. who I. described u sacrificing his own country to hls own ambition for fame, and foreigners are very uneasy, belieting that the natives would pursue so harsh a policy, u to drive them out of the country. One merchant had sent back a ship and cargo consigned to him, without entering it." Letters are in town from Laguira, of the 23d June, stating that a Proclamation bad been issued by Bola- VAR. dated 17th June, in which he invites all Colom bians to rally round his standard to suppress the revolt of BUSTIMARTIN who was at the head of the troops returned from the South, and who had declared them selves independent of the present Government. Accounts received this morning from Marseilles state, that the Dey of At Gtaas is putting the town in a state of defence both by land and sea, and that it will , be impossible to take Algiers without landing 15,000 men. These accounts also state, that a ship of the French squadron had approached too near the batteries, and was vigorously cannonaded by the fort, which obliged the ship to put to sea immediately. Yesterday Mr. WYNN transacted business with Vis• count GODNRICH. _ The Duke of BUCKINGHAM paid a visit to his uncle, Lord GRENVILLI4 at Dropnsore, previously to his de parture from this country. The Noble Duke left his Prosy with Lord Gamersu.s during his abs nee. • THE KING.

To-morrow the Kula will dine with the Queen of Woirruessaa, and his Royal Sisters, Princess Auovase send the Duchess of GLOM/STIR, at Flogrnore Lodge. His Kamm enjoys excellent health end spirits. THE RING'S THEATRE. The Season closed at this Theatre on Saturday even ing.—Didone was the Opera given on the occasion, in which Madame PASTA sustained the part of the unfor tunate Q seen in her usual superior stile. An announce• ment stated that Madame Puzzt had been for some time seriously indisposed ; but contrary to the advice of her s'hysicians, she had resolved, rather than disappoint the public, to appear. and trusted to their indulgence— her song was consequently omitted. The other charac „Mrs in the Opera were counme autrefois. After the Opera a general call was made for Madame Perris, who came forward and was greeted with enthusiastic marks of approbation from every part of the house. Considering the lateness of the season we were surprised at the number of fashionable: present. the Coup which the Theatre presented was but little inferior to anything we had previously witnessed. Madame PASTA'S success at the King's Theatre du ring the present season is unezampled ; and although she received a larger nightly salary than his been previously given to any foreigner. the profits arising from her per formances have amply remunerated the proprietor. The Duke of Gconcerria drank the Cheltenham waters at the Montpelier, ea Thursday morning, fur the last shoe this season.

Mr. J. FARDON, of Woodstock, Oxon, gathered a gooseberry on Friday, the 27th of July, that measured five inches in circumference, and weighed 21.dwtr. Sgrs.

IR P Disraustua °muumuus.— Saturday morning, la , about half-past six o'clock, two youths, sous of Mr. u Meredith, of the Edgware-road, were bathing in the b Serpentine River, the elder, who could swim a little, Ventured too far, and on his return sunk from eshaus- h ti 011: He rose again, and cried out for assistance. His brother, being enable to swim, was incapable of aff rd- • ing any, and in an agony of grief, called to a school , - fellow of the name of Cunningham, who was in the river, to save his brother. The generous youth insta ntl y n swam to the place, and on young Meredith's rung a r _second time, grasped him with one arm, and made i , every possible effort to swim with him to the sho e ; a but his strength failing, they both sunk to the bottom. 1 A young man who had just come to the bank, without e waiting to take off more than his coat and shoes, iv ed into the water, and being a good diver, he succeeded a in bringing up the body of Meredith, with whom he e swam ashore. The body of Cunningham was not lourd h for near an hour after. The usual means of restoring I animation were resorted to in both cases. Meredith a was recovered; .but in Cunningham life was esiiiict. 1 He was the son of respectable parents, residing I h .Hampshire-terrace, St. John's Wood. v
