AWFVL EVIENT.—This morning, at the time the Pomp Room and the Promonade Barden , ' attached to it were filled with elegant company, the Rand in the Orchestra playing a lively piece. a scene of dismay and horror ensued. Females in tears came running in various di rectiona, occasioned by the awful visitation of the AL miGn.ri-, i n the sadden death of a tiendensan, who, on sitting down en a long mahogany seat in the Colonnade in the front of the Pump Room, which is placed there for the accommodation of the tionspaey, fell backwards' and expired without a sigh or groan. He proved to he Mr. Jones, the hanker, of the Arm of Jones and Lloyd, in Lothbury, London. He had walked from his residence on the Unfits Parade, accompanied by Mrs. Henry and another female friend, who always accost palsied him in his %milks, be being in an infirm state, as. they were in the constant habit of doing since he has resided there for six weeks past. He bad taken a Gen- Britian's arm, when Mrs. Henry and his other female friend had left him, who asked him if it would be agreeable to him to sit dome, lie having jut takes a glass of water, be replied in the affirmative, and on his sitting the awful event took place. Mrs. Moors and her female friend returned In the course of a few =lames to the Colonnade which proved to be the spot of woe to them. On discovering what had happened they ran off in a sweat' distraction for medical and surgical assist knees. Captain Heaven. the Master of the Ceremonies, did the same. Dr. Middleton, Mr. Trrslove, the sur geon, and Mr. Jepbsop, the assistant of Mr. Chambers, were soon in attendance. The deceased was carried from the Colonnade to a room attached to the Ladies' Bath, where the window was opened to give every assistance for restoring animation.

Lord Kennedy bad taken 4Q to 1, in fifties, that he would, one day; of the season 1122, from twelve o'clock of one night, to twelve o'eleek the following night, kill forty brace of grouse, on his shoot ing ground, at Felar, at the bead of Aberdeenshire: and afterwards ride to his seat at llnonotter, and back to Felar, a distance of 1-10 miles. Exactly at 12 o'clock on Monday night, three watches were set together and pot Into a box by the Umpires, —.Turner, Esq., on the part of Mr. Farquharson, td Captain Barclay, on the Pert of Lord Kennedy ; Mr. Cunimiag referee. At fear in the morning Lord lienoedy commenced shooting, at tended by a great body of Highlanders, drawn together from curiosity. A great deal of rain had fallen in the night, which made the hills very wee, and the birds wild. The Ant brace was killed a quarter after four, and the whale forty brace in loon hours and forty-one minutes. After shifting his wet clothes and taking was refreshmara,4se mounted his horse and started for DJ*. tatter. where he arrived at two o'clock, having rode ;to Hiles in four hour hours and a half. lie remained about an hour there, anti get back to Felen four minutes before eight o'clock at night, performing the 140 miles in ten hours and twenty-six minutes: and winning the match by four hours and four etiolates. The whole was done, shooting, fcc. io Mee° hoar, and tifty•sit minutes. He reterneo to Csstletown that night, a distance of fourteen miles by ten o'clock; making the whole din none en horseback 154 ruiles. This is the greatest feat otexertion on re:ord, and Lord Kennedy challenges any man la the kingdom to shoot against bins for a thou sand guinea% at any thing that ties, either with ball or shot. His Lordship did not appear the feast fatigtiest. Every thing was against him; the grouse arelalloollloolll strong and forward this season ; the road is any thing but good, the first four Ogles a mere mountain sheep tract; aed the remainder very bang and stony. with nu- Mero2ll abort sharp hills.
