LON DON, WEDNESDAY, Auaurr 14, 1822. The cause of Lord LP N DON °NARY'S death his been investigated by a Coroner's Jury, and the re sult will be found in another part of our Paper. The verdict was such as must have been anticipated, and attributes the sad event to Ltutaey. The dr. licacy which we were anxious to observe yesterday upon this subject, and which, as we had been assured was most earnestly desired by the family and friends of the Noble Marquis, is now no longer necessary, for it cannot be concealed that the deceased had, " with desperate hind," effected his own destruction. The reports which prevailed on Monday to this effect were not generally believed, for what was there in the circumstances of the Noble Marquis which, according to ordinary cal culations, could have led him to so dreadful a catastrophe ? But " we are fearfully and wonder fully made;" and who can fathom the depths of the human understanding, or estimate the pressure which it is capable of sustaining ? This is a matter which admits of no reasoning, and it may shake the firmness of any individual to learn the distress.- ing fact, that the intellectual powers of this eminent Statesman had sunk under the weight of an over whelming malady, and that in a paroxysm of mo mentary derangement he put an end to his exist ence, by cutting the carotid artery with a knife. To the causes of this mental debility the public attention will naturally be directed, as if the mala dies of the mind were susceptible of ouch minute examination. We know not how far it may assist this inquiry to refer to the fatigues of office; to the multiplicity of matter which demanded the earnest application of his Lordship's mind ; and especially to the physical weariness that must have resulted from the excessive exertion of the last tiresome Session of Parliament. Investigate these subjects as we tiny, the sad event must. mill baffle every attempt at. nquiry ; the theories of science can never reduce the human mind to the dull level of material existence, or make it the sub ject of experiment or speculation. The me lancholy fact is. all that we are capable of understanding, and the motives that led to it lie as little within the sphere of oar contemplation, as they are submitted by ETEMCAL WISDOM to the frail judgment of mortality. The fact •offees to us a serious lesson of humility. Flow it most check tbe.pride that arrogates spiritual excellence to think tkikt ascii mea as the Marquis of LOA ROlllnitalf, Air SIiIIIIL Rodtar, and Mr. WIHTIMAD, should have severally sought relief from mortal existence by the awful twang of self-destruction ! The deaths oT these tfiree eminent Statesmen were nearly similar, yet how few could compare with either of them, while in the vigour of health, in energy of mind or promptitude of action ! They were not men who fortified a physical contempt of death with a reckless indifference to a state of fu ture existence, or who ridiculed the solemn doc. trines of religion, as if they were the dreams of iurs. terested theorists. They were not released from the claims of this world by the absence of those whom nature has taught us to prize as the chief blessings of our present existence, nor were they steroid of those accidental circumstances of wealth, honours, and power, which minds of an elevated churacter might have contemplated as essential for the enjoyment of life. Yet the intel lectual powers of these men have sunk beneath a short or momentary illness. The paroxysm of a fever, or the occasional delusion of the mind, has over-mastered their'reason, and they have fallen into the class of those persons whom the laws of England regard with such peculiar, such harsh sus picion, as to require the intervention of a Jury be tween their families and the Crown, to ascertain how far they shall be deemed criminal or unfor tunate. The report of the Coroner's Inquest will be read with deep and anxious interest. No doubt can be entertained that the fatal deed occurred during the total aberration of his Lordship's mind. An exceed ing degree of nervous irritability had been noticed by his family and domestics some time previous to the event, and it was thought necessary within the last day or two to remove from the presence of the uoble patient his pistols, and every other obvious instrument which might have afforded to him the means of destruction. The knife which even tually accomplished the purpose, was contained with in a pocket-book, and had unfortunately escaped the observation of his attendants. He contrived to send his servant from the chamber, by affecting to require the attendance of Doctor BANKNZAD, his physician, •nd took occasion of that moment to use the knife for his own destruction. The servant instantly reti:rned to the chamber, accompanied by Doctor BANKEICAD, who received the Marquis in his arms, but the wound was too severe to own the power of science, and lie expired almost immediately. The Marchioness—this is the most melancholy part of the sad tale—the Marchioness was apprised of the event, and instantly hurried to the scene of the ca lamity. She Bung herself upon the lifeless body of her Lord, and called in vain upon him who had been the fondest sud kindest of husbands. But such grief is too sacred for observation. Their union was marked by • peculiar felicity ; and who can sufficiently imagine the hopeless waste, the sickliness of heart that must follow this cruel and har►h separation ? Her Ladyship is said to have been ever since in a state almost of delirium. She is attended with anxious care by her sister, Lady SUFFIELD, who hail been on a visit at North Cray since the prorogation of Parlisinent. Several other ladies have sat op all night in attendance upon her. During the Inquest her Ladyship remained in a room called the Chins Room, contiguous to the dieting-rootu, in which the Inquest was held. We have received the Paris Papers up to Sun day. A French tquadrou has sailed from Toulon, destined, according to rumour, for a cruise ou the coast of Spaiu. Frankfort Papers to the 7111, and Dutch to the 11th instant have arrived.

The announce ment of The Hypocrite, which is a novelty here, attracted • very full house last night. The part of Dr. Cantwell, in which Mr. Dowron has acquired so much celebrity, was sustained by Mr. TERLLY, and the performance must certainly rank amongst his most successful efforts. The character is (.1 an unmixed kind through every scene of the play in which it forms a part; it is presented with the same unvarying feature of the most revolting duplicity, without being relieved by any one redeeming quality, or the remotest appearance of ■ single principle which could soften the deep shade iu which the picture is enveloped. In Mr. TaattY's hands the character was exposed to the full measure of odium which it merits; he was ve(y successful in assuming the puntanicul sanctity of manner which serves as ■ cloak for his mean and selfish passions. In the concluding scene, where he is betrayed ioto a decla ration of his love for Lady Lambert, and contempt for her deceived husband, and which proves final to all his schemes, he was most decidedly effective. Mr. LISTON, as illuw-worse. was • very worthy disciple; lie was as ridiculous as his prototype was detestable ; the sermon which he delivered is pus. seance of a call of the spirit, and the denunCiation against those who had nearly been the victims of his worthy friend. were received with great applause. Mrs. CHATTEaI.BY has a fund of vivacity and good spirits which made the pleasant coquetry of Char. lotte pass off very agreeably. Mr. JONSSON. as Calomel Lambert, seemed occasionally to display • portion of the author's spirit, and gave some of the passages in a good style. The comedy eaperie•ced throughout • very favourable reception, sod was announced for repetition with applause. The Marriage of Figure succeeded, in which Mr. Joata played Coast Abautioa with his usual ani mation. Miss PATON sang tweedy, and was ho floored with the flattering cry of "encore." The house was** full as any of which the present season has had to boast. Last morning, at half-pest eight, her Royal High ness the Duchess of KENT, Princess FEODORI, her Royal Highness Princess ALIXANDRIN• and suite, embarked on hoard the Hera steam packet from the Tower for Ramsgate. Her Royal High ness was received at the Tower with every mark of distinction due to her exalted rank. The royal standard was hoisted upon the occasion. Fonthill Abbey has already been visited by thou. sands of curious spectators. The inns in the neigh bourhood are absolutely crowded with fashionable parties.

Several barrels of beer were distributed among the multitude, and considerable hilarity was exhibited among the happy peasantry throughout the day.

Yesterday afternoon a Jury was araembled st the mansion of the lat e M arqu i s of 11.ms___Aoi...Aerry, N or th Cray, Kent, before Mr. Cartier, Coroner for that county, and • Jury of thirteen inhabitant. of that neighbourhood, for the pUrpose of inveitigating the cause of his Lordship's lamentable death. At two o'clock the fulluwiog Jury were empaa• 'idled and acorn William Mattes (Foreman), William' Meade, I Robert Merr.ll.l,l, John Johnson, Marry Allen ii ?florae, John Masters, A. Cook"on, Jobs Cooke, 1 Weiss Pr,aios; Jobs Storm, I noose Hamm', He.ry Dion, George *Moe. The Jury, with the Corone►, then proeeeded to the drnsing•room where the corpse of the deceaeid Nobleman lay. A drstriptibn of the particular situation of the deceased muse give pain to every person of whatever political creed, and will excite no o►dinary feelings in the breast of all. The body lay on the floor on the right side, with the face inclined to the carpet. There was a stream of gore that had run from the window of the apart ment to the door, perhaps not len than three or four quarts of blood in all. His Lotdship's right hand wee dyed in blood. The body was in the precise situation it was placed on the morning of the melancholy occurrence. It had not been touch ed by an• person. A clip was on the head, and a long morning gown on the body. Slippers and sttckinge were on the feet and legs. The coml. temente was very pale sod ghastly ; the eyes were open. The melancholy scene was truly oppelling, and will not be forgotten for a long time by those who witnessed it. The Jury returned to the dining-room, and their names being again called over, they received the following evidence : Mrs. Ann Robinson sworn-1 am lady's trawl to the Marchionenof Londonderry ; I have been so for many years; of course I was well acquainted with the deceased, whose body the Jury have just viewed up stein. My Lord has been ill for the last fort. night; I particularly noticed his indisposition on Monday serinight. On Sunday slight last, two nights ago, his Lordship rang his bed•room bell; 1 answered it—he asked why it was that Lady Lon douderry had so long delayed coming to see him; I replied to his Lordship that her Ladyship had been with him the whole of the day, which was the fact, and her Ladyship was at that time in the room adjoining that of his Lordship. The Marquis rang the bell a second time. 1 proceeded to the room, sod his Lordship asked me if Dr. Bankhead had beets there on the preceding night, and if he (the Marquis) had talked wry nonsense to Dr. 13. I replied, I was not present during the conversation believer' them, and then left the room. His Lordship rang the bell again on Monday morning about seven o'clock. On my going into the room 1 saw Ins Lordship Ned her Ladyship both in bed. His Lordship asked me what I did there in a very ex traordinary tone of voice. I did not reply, and fir Ladyship told me that they wanted breakfast. Ifni- • voided to the kitchen and prepared breakfast a canal. I took it up stairs and prevented some to his Lord; ship. My Lord found fault with it, and mid it wit not a breakfast fit for him to take; what I took ip was what was usual y taken for breakfast by my Lord and Lady, and it was served up in the gruel way and form. His Lordship's bell rang !gain ; I went into the room. end he asked if Dr. Bankhead had come from town to see his Lordship; I replied he had slept in the house during the night. His Lordship said he should be glad to see him immedi ately, and her Ladyship said she would get op sad dress herself instantly ; I went to Dr. Bankhead mud told him what his Lordship had said; the Doctor said he would attend on bis Lordship immedistely ; I told the Doctor if he would please to wait about a quarter of an hour her Ladyship would have re• tired from his Lordship's bed-room to her dressing room ; I went and told Dr. B. he might then see his Lordship ; whilst 1 was standing in the passage that leads to his Lordship's bed-room I saw his Lord ship rush out arid enter his dressing-room ; I went instantly to Dr. B.'s room and requested he would come immediately to my master, who had left his bed and gone to his dressing-room in his morn iog.gown ; the Doctor came immediately to the dressing-room, and as soon as• he entered I row the Marquis fall towards the door into the Doctor's arms; I saw blood gushing from hit Lordship's neck ; his Lordship did not speak, ci I heard; saws knife in his hand ; I did not see him an the knife, or see hiss wound himself; the knife wn in his right hand. Five minutes previous to this his L.o►dship w■e iu bed. I did not perceive I.'l wound or blood whilst his Lordship Mei in his b e d. room; I am sure there was no blood on him elan he rushed by me from hislied-room to hifdinsirit:- room. lam quite positive no person entered hit Lordship's room from the time that I went ter the Doctor mod Ins entrance into the rains. Coroner—This proves, Gentlemen of the Jury. that it must have been his Lordship's act. Witeress-1 am convinced that• none bid - his Lordship could have done it.
