Obituarl

PRINCE LEININOEN, who died on Thursday week,
after only a few days' illness, was only son of his
Serene Highness Enrich Charles Prince of 'Ain-
ingen, by his marriage with Princess Victoria Marie
Louise of Saxe Coburg (now her Royal Highness
the Duchess of Kent), and consequently half brother
of her Majesty. The deceased prince was born on
the 12th of September, 1804, and succeeded his
father on the 4th of July, 1814, being then only in
his eleventh year. On the 12th of September, 1823,
he was declared to be of age. He entered the mili-
tary service of the King of Bavaria, in which army
he held the rank of lieutenant-general, and was
Colonel-in-Chief of the sth Regiment of Cavalry.
His late Serene Highness married, the 13th of
February, 1839, Marie (nee Countess of Klebels-
berg), by whom he leaves issue, Prince Ernest, born
9th of November, 1830, and Prince Edward, born :3rd
of January, 1833. The deceased is succeeded by
Prince Ernest, above named, lieutenant in the British
navy. His Serene Highness distinguished himself
during the naval operations in the Black Sea, and
obtained his lieutenancy in April last year; in May
last be was appointed second lieutenant to her
Majesty's steam frigate Magicienne. The titles of
the late prince were :—Count de Linange, 1220;
Landgrave, 4th of October, 1444; Prince of the
Empire, 3rd of July, 1779; hereditary member of
First Chamber of the kingdom of Bavaria, 26th of
May, 1818; and hereditary member of the First
Chamber of the Grand Duchy of Baden, 22nd of
May, 1833.
PRINCE WORONZOFF died at Odessa on the 18th
inst., in the seventy-fourth year of his age. The
intelligence was yesterday received in London by
telegraph. The prince had only arrived at Odessa
a few weeks since. Michael Woronzoff, the son of
Count Simon Woronzoff, was born at St. Petersburg
on the 17th of May, 1782. It has frequently been
said that he was a native of England ; but the fact
is, that his father was not appointed ambassador to
this country until shortly after the late Prince
Woronzoff was born. When the Emperor Paul took
part with Napoleon against us, the mission of Count
Woronzoff as ambassador was, of course, interrupted ;
but he continued to reside in London. Upon the
accession of Alexander he resumed the embassy, and
resided in London, with a few short intervals of
absence, until his death, in 1832. His son, Michael,
thus received an English education, whilst his
daughter, sister to the subject of our memoir, mar-
ried an English nobleman, the late Earl of Pem-
broke, and became the mother of the Right Hcn.
Sidney Herbert, M.P. Michael Woronzoff, at the
age of nineteen, entered the Russian army, served
in the Caucasus, then in several campai;ns against
Napoleon from 1812 to 1814. He represented
Russia at the conference of Aix-la-Chapelle. In
1823 be was appointed Governor of New Russia, and
continued to hold that office until the late war. He
was engaged in the Turkish war of 1828, anci held
the command after Menschikutf had been wounded
at Varna. In 1845 he was sent to subdue the Cir-
cassians, and although the brave mountaineers were
able to resist even the immense forces at his com-
mand, he succeeded in the capture of Dargo, one of
Schamyl's strongholds in the Caucasus, and was
rewarded with a princedom. The civil administra-
tion of Prince Wuronzoff has undoubtedly entitled
him to much praise. When the conflict between
Russia and the allies broke out in 1853, he was
permitted, at his own urgent request, to retire from
office.

Sir nzctaau TREL BART., of Trelawny, Lord
Lieutenant of Cornwall, died on the 15th instant.
Sir William was born in 1781, and is succeeded in
the baronetcy by Mr., now Sir John Sainsbury Tre-
lawny, formerly member for Tavistock.
MR. DAVID BOGUE, the well•known publisher, of
St. Bri le's passage, Fleet-street, died suddenly on
Wednesday morning. Thu event was entirely un-
looked for, the deceased gentleman not having suf-
fered from any premonitory indisposition. On Tues-
day Mr. Bogue was in the City transacting his usual
b iciness. On the eeening of that day he was at
h ,me with his family at his residence in Camden-
town, and retired to rest in his accustomed health
sal spirits. About eight o'clock on Wednesday
