DEATH OF EDMUND KEAN, Esq., THE TRAGEDIAN. (From a correspondent of the Morning Chronicle.) This melancholy event took place yesterday morning, at twenty minutes past nine o'clock, at his house, at Richmond, in the presence of Mr. Douchez, his principal medical attendant, and Mr. Lee, his constant and faithful secretary. Mr. Douchez postponed several consultations in town, on Tuesday, for the purpose of attending the last moments of his friend, and at twelve o'clock proceeded to Richmond. On his arrival, he found his patient in a very lethargic state, unconscious of anything passing around him, and towards evening a large accumulation of mucus took place in the bronchiae (air passages of the lungs), vulgarly known by the term " rattles," giving evi dent signs of his speedy dissolution. He continued in this state during nearly the whole of the night, occasionally muttering religious interjections land here it may be well to observe that Mr. Kean was a firm believer in the doc trines of Christianity]. At 5 o'clock yasterday morning he appeared to re cognise Mr. Douchez and Mr. Lee, and grasped the former by the band, throwing, at the same time, a look of be neficent kindness upon them, which can be better imagined than described. As the morning approached, an attempt was made to oass something through his lips, but it was in vain. The poor sufferer afterwards made several inef fectual attempts to speak, and at the hour before men tioned, still grasping the band of Mr. Douchez, he fixed his eyes steadily upon him and Mr. Lee for a minute, heaved one sigh, and expired. It is the intention of his relatives and friends to apply to the Dean and Chapter of Westminster Abbey to forego the customary fees, and to allow his mortal remains to be placed by the side of his immortal predecessor Garrick. Doctor Drury, who had admired the growing genius of Kean from a very early period, was not unobservant of the progress it was making to perfection. He had lately seen him in Exeter, and perceiving that his powers were uncommon, wrote to Mr. Grenfell, the Member of Par liament, upon the propriety of bringing him out upon the London boards. Mr. Grenfell knew the tottering state of Drury-lane Theatre, and that if chance did not work a very material change in the business of it, the liberal spirit and the equal force of talent at the sister Theatre would be the means of rendering even the wisdom of the Committee incapable of supporting the concern. Dowton, Johnstone, Munden, Elliston, Rae, Lovegrove, Braham, and Dickons, bad all played to empty benches; and the Jews were already entertaining hopes of getting bargains by barteringwith he lower servants of the theatre for the wigs, hats, coats, &c., which they expected to receive in lieu of their salaries; when Mr. Grenfell took their case into consideration, and informed Mr. Arnold of the substance of Dr. Drury's letter. Mr. Arnold accordingly told the Committee, that though they were groping through the darknesses of life, there was some beam on its surface, and some hope of refreshment in its waters. The Com mittee were struck mute with joy and surprise, for they expected no less from the figure through which this light was conveyed to them, than that their worthy friend and coadjutor had some darling child of his fancy to regale the puhlic with—something in the line of Jack, the Giant killer, which would be that of passing the ordeal which ge nius must go—but Mr. Arnold undeceived them, and, with the sanction of the Committee, proceeded to Dorchester, where Kean was then playing. On the night of Mr. Ar nold's arrival in Dorsetshire, he went to the theatre, o, here Kean played the character of Octavian in the Mountaineers, and afterwards the part of a savage, in a pantomime founded upon La Perouse, and arranged by Kean himself. Mr. Arnold saw enough in the performances to convince him that the assistance of such a man would be likely to redeem Drury-lane Theatre from the "dread repose" that' prevailed through its aisles, and invited him to breakfast the next morning, and, after a little conversation, con cluded an engagement with Kean for three years, at eight, ten, and twelve guineas per week, for the first, second, and third years. Upon Kean's arrival in town, which was nearly three weeks after his engagement, Mr. Arnold in- troduced him to the Committee, who made comments upon his figure and face with a freedom that could be ill excused, even in absence—" G.ti bless me ! what a poor-looking thing!" said one—" He'll destroy the con cern !" said another. They desired to hear him speak, and he spoke; but it was to assure theta that he came to town to abide by the j“dgment of the public„andnot to he determined in his future views bi- theirs. The Committee broke up in anger, and Mr. Arnold rereivtd a lecture from them upon the subject of precipitancy of judgment. Kean waited upon the Treasurer on the Saturday Mowing, and received from him a week's salary ; but, upon his application the week after, he was told that he had no claim upon Drury-lane Theatre. He wished for a❑ explanation, but was refused it; and after having waited for upwards of an hour on the landing-place, was told to depart. With this older be thought it prudent to comply ; for be saw a phalanx of the bu'kined heroes of the theatre gathered together, and amusing themselves with his di,appointment. He at length succeeded in fin4ing out the cause of his exclusion from the Treasury, by means of a letter from Mr. Elliston, which toll him that he t, as to play at that gentleman's theatre according to agreement, and that he had no connection with any other. This letter was t ep'ete with high.toned sentences ; and as Kan remem bered that he had some time before held a correspondence with Elliston, with a view to an engagement, he recurred to the letters on that suhject, but SAW that they contained nothing that fixed an engagement; he therefore wrote to Mr. Eliiston under such impression, and having found it necessary to apply to Dr. Drury, a satisfactory explanation took place, and Kean was once more received by the committee. He was by his own desire advertised for the character of Shylock, and it was reported at the time that he chose that character for the purpose of avoiding the ridicule which the committee said would be vented upon his figure. To follow Mr. Kean through the characters of Shylock, Richard the Third, Elude, Othello, lag°, &c., at DI ury lane, would be quite superfluous, inasmuch as his perfor mance of those and many other characters was the most triumpban.ly successful ever known, and absolutely saved Drury-lane from total destruction ; and the latter part of his history is too well known to be quoted in this notice ; one fact, however, not generally known, and which is illustrative of the fickleness of fortune, is worth recording. Some years since, Mr. John Hughes, who, for a series of years, has been Kean's most zealous and attached friend and counsellor, and who has invariably stuck to him with Christian constancy " through weal and through woe," through " ill and through good report," was acting at Tewkesbury at one guinea per week ; Kean being the leader in tragedy, comedy, and opera, received one pound five shillings per week, and they chummed together (as they had done for years) ; the domestic and pecuniary arrangements, from motives of frugality and prudence, being always committed to Hughes's charge. It happened, however, that on a particular day at the end of a week, they were (in conse quence of the exercise of a little prodigality at the com mencement of the said week) literally without breakfast or dinner ; but—mark the reverse of fortune—on that very day five years Hughes's circumstances were c•rnsiderably improved, and Kean absolutely received one hundred and fifty guineas for his day's work, having played at Tewkes bury in the morning (the Theatre having been darkened), at Gloucester in the afternoon, and at Cheltenh am at night; and for each performance he received fifty guineas There is a rumour of Sir JOHN HOBIIOUSE going out as Ambassador to Madrid. —Morning Poper. The Countess of BLESSINGTON'S new novel of " The Repeaters," will be soon before the public. The scenes in Ireland and in London are said to be of a very extraordinary description ; they will develop not only a variety of curious facts connected with the " Agitators," but di-close some features of London high life, of which few persons are at present aware. Lieutenant-Colonel DE LACY EVANS, the newly-elected M.P. for Westminster, served at Waterloo. where his gallantry recommended him to the notice of the illustrious Commander•in-Chief of the Allied Armies. The promotion of the Colonel is said to have been singu larly rapid, having been a subaltern in the month of Janu ary preceding the battle of Quatrebras, and a Lieutemint• Colonel on the 18th of June, 1815. He is at present on the half-pay of the sth West Indi i Rangers.

The whole twelve kept so nearly together throughout that a doubt may he reasonably elite, tabled whether there be any thing like superiority amongst them.

When the late Mr. Tbellusson died, in the year 1797, his property produced an annual income of about 20,0001. By his will his property was direved to be ac- cumulated in the way of compound interest during the lives of all his descendants living at his death, or born within nine months afterwards. _ _ _ A main argument used against the validity of the trusts was, that from the ordinary duration of human life, when the accumulation ceased the fund would amount to 70,000.0001., and that, if the whole centred in a minor, he would by the time be attained his full age possess a re venue exceeding the civil list, and he would be able by the mere force of wealth to derange the civil policy of the country. These were magnificent dreams, but the waking reality has proved somewhat different; and so far as the ulti mate issue can now be guessed at, there seems no ground for the alarm above suggested. No descendant of Mr. Thellusson will be richer than the King, and even if schedule A had still been in existence, it is to be doubted if the most judicious application of the Thellusson pro perty when full grown would purchase a step in the Peerage. In one word, the gross annual proceeds in the year 1801 exceeded 20,0001., as above stated, and the gross proceeds in the year 1831, after 30 years' accumulation in the way of compound interest, amounted to 22,0001. and a fraction. The next sum paid into the accumulat ing fund in the year 1928 was 16,000/. and a fraction ; in the year 1829 it was reduced to 12,0001., and the addition made to the accumulated fund in the year 1830 had shrunk to 10,5401. The error of this testator was, that he considered enor mous wealth as a positive good, without reference to its enjoyment, and the fruit of his care and pains has been to occasion a waste of property altogether unexampled in the affairs of an individual. His fortune is still completely locked up, and the accumulation is proceeding at the snail's pace above noticed, while his descendants are strug gling with all the harth.bips which attend narrow circum stances. It is well known that the fortune of the present. Lord Rendlesham (the son of the testator's eldest son) is perhaps riot more than sufficient for a Frivate gentleman, and totally inadequate to the support of his rank. His brothers are still more slend. , rly provided for, while some of the descendants of another son are actually suffering all the miseries of destitution. Is it possible that such a monstrous evil as has been perpetrated by this testator may be redressed? Is it just anti right that no one should encroach upon the corpus of the estates left by the testator till the time art ives which he fixed for their enjoyment ? But the case is different as to the thousands which are every year wasted upon strangers for whom the testator intended nothing. The unfortunate family of this testator is placed in a situation altogether peculiar. The enormous mass of wealth is suspended over them, and will some day fall into possession, but in the mean time they are not to touch it. They are doomed to sit in want, and see this property, which ought to be theirs, made the prey and the spoil of others, to whom the testator never gave it. Certainly, if the ordinary tribunals of the country cannot reach this case, the evil is of such a description that it seems not merely to warrant but to cal upon Parliament to yield some redress.

SPIRIT OP THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The following we believe to be a correct version of the resolu.ions proposed by Mr: Stanley, last Tuesday night, on the abolition cf slavery: — RESOLUTIONS FOR THY ABOLITION OF COLONIAL SLAV LRY, PROPOSED BY ME. SECRETORY STANLEY ? ON THE 14TH OF MAT, 1833. " 1. That it is the opinion of this Committee that immediate and effectual measures be taken fur the en tire abolition of slavery throughout the colonies, under , uch provision. for regulating the condition of the negro,* may combine their welfare with the interests of the proprietors. " 2. That it is expedient that all children born after the passi ng o f any Aet, e or who shall be under the age of -ix years at the time of passing any Act of Parliament for this purpose, be declared free—subject, neverthele-s, to such temporary restrictions as may be deemed necessary for their support and maintenance. " 3. That all persons now slaves be entitled to be re- gistered as apprenticed labourers, and to acquire thereby all the rights and privileges of free men, subject to the restriction of labouring under conditions and for a time to be fixed by Parliament, for their present owners. " 4. That to provide against the risk of loss whicli proprietors in his Majesty's colonial possessions might sustain by the abolition of slavery, his Maj,sty be enatiltd to advance, by way of loan, to be raised from time to time, a sum not excekding in the whole, 15,000,0001 , to be repaid in such manner, and at such rate of interest, as shall be prescribed by Parliament. " b. That his Majesty be enabled to defray any such expense as he may incur in establishing an efficient sti pendiary magistraey in the colonies, and in aiding Vie local legislatures in providing for the religious and moral education of the negro population to be emancipated." In the present state of this great question, the Government have adopted the course ol directing the attention of Parliament to a few broad and intelligible principles, disencumbered of those details of execution, a premature con: sideration of which misleads the judgment and tends greatly to increase the difficulties of dis cussion. It is evidently the object, whatever may be the effect, of these resolutions, that all the negro race in the Briish colonies shall, imme diately on the passing of the intended Act, be raised to the condition of freemen, subject only to certain temporary restrictions. As respects children, they will be only such as to secure their support and maintenance ; and, as respects all other negroes, they will only amount to a tong act to labour for a definite period, upon fixed con ditions, for their present owners. To render this contract beneficial both to the immediate and future welfare of the negro, or at most, to prescribe for him such obligations only as the peculiar circumstances of the colonies and the financial state of this country demand,—to di minish the possibility of risk to the proprietors. with as little addition as possible to the fl , ,cdl burdens of the parent country,—are questions of momentous interest, which ought to be, and it is to be hoped will be, dispassionately considered as well by the West Indian as by the abolitionist. They do not seem to be such as to afford any probable ground for party opposition. Upon their satisfactory solution will depend the suc cessful working, and the eventual completion of the great design of justice and benevolence which his Majesty's Government have undert :ken. f T ra h m e to leave the amplest opportunities of arriving at ed p raospo notse proposed r o p e s r e o j l u u i t i i g o e n s t e r s e e accordingly b s u o t just conclusions on the subjects they involve. And, certainly, no legislative asssmbly was ever called upon to hear a plan, or to discuss a question, in which greater interests or more important principles were involved, and we do not hesitate to say that the young Minister of State for the Colonies seemed to rise per- fectly to the height of his subject. The rights and duties of our common nature---the necessity of reversing the attainder of bondage so iniqui tously passed on a portion of our race, and the danger even of executing so holy a purpose without precautions for securing order and pro moting industry—indignation at oppression, re strained by a fear of exciting the oppressed to acts of vengeance—wise and judicious principles of legislation and economy for the regulation of our colonies, and gratitude for the ext rtions of those consistent and noble minded friends of the negroes who had first resisted the slave trade, and now are about to see the consummation of their labours in the declaration of negro free dom, all found in Mr. Stanley an eloquent and generous interpreter. Our readers must have perused the speech of the Right Hon. Gentle man from beginning to end, though it occupied a large space in our columns, and we need scarcely, therefore, recapitulate its statements. He showed, we think unanswerably, that the demand of the country for negro emancipation was not the effect of a sudden and transient burst of enthusiastic feeling or popular passion, which had been easily kindled, and which might in a short time be extinguished, but that it was the result of long reflection and of settled habits of thought. He showed that the authors of the measures for abolishing the slave trade al ways contemplated the ultimate abolition of slavery, and that they would have reckoned their first work incomplete unless it had led to this ulterior object. He showed that when in 1823 the British Parliament passed its celebrated re solutions, the nation looked upon them as the germ of emancipation, either to be developed by the Colonial Legislatures or to be expanded and ripened by the fostering care of the mother country. He demonstrated the right of the British Parliament to act independently of the colonists when the colonists had resisted our recommendations to amend that system. He showed seriatim that the planters had not only disregarded every instruction from the general Government, but had even disclaimed its au thority, and insulted its power. Indeed, it appeared to most people preposterous to expect that the colonists would make laws to restrain their own violence, to lessen their own gains, or to reduce the value of their own " human property." Even had they formally accepted the bills for the amelioration of slavery trans mitted to them from England, it is plain that such reformation introduced by its declared enemies would have wanted Mr. Burke's " executory principle ; " in other word:;, would have remained a dead letter. The Right Hon. Gentleman thus demonstrated that the British Government and the British Parliament were driven, however reluctantly, to take upon themselves the whole execution and responsibi lityof the indispensable measure of emancipation. In the explanation and defence of the different parts of the plan embodied in his resolutions, he evinced equal sagacity ; and his anticipation of its results, both in our own colonies an] over the territories in the western hemisphere at present cultivated by slave labour, appea ed equally just and eloquently expressed. fhough ,ve are most willing to admit that so momentous a me asure :night not to be rashly adopted or rejected, and tay as legitimately warrant opposition as it cha.- le, , ges inquiry, we cannot think that Lord, the ex-Secretary to the Colonte, an ered Mr. S,ani,y, was either happy m his hjections or wise in his sng4estions. The ad ' ,ocates for immediate and unronditional t mdu ,ipation may certainly object to the :on` te,m of twelve years, during which the negroes,
