DIA= OF TEE EkEL OF WINCHILSEA.
Friday lest the death of the Earl of Winch.lees took place
at Ramboim Priory, Unruh!». The deceased nobleman,
who was in his stzty-seventh year, inherited, as ninth earl,
at the donne of his cousin, la August, 1826. He was
thrice married ; first in 1814, to the eldest daughter of the
third Duke of Montrose, by whom he had ism the present
awl and a daughter; the countess died in February, 1836,
end in February, 1887, the late earl was married to the
daughter of the Ist* Right Hon. Sir Charles Begot, who
died without inns in 1818; and, thirdly, in 1849, he was
mareled to the eldest daughter of Edward Boyd Rice,
K Dens Court, Kent, by whom he had three sons. T'be
presented, late Viscount Maidstone, is not at present, we
believe, In England. He was married in 1846 to Constance
Henrietta, daughter of the Earl of Uxbridge, by whom he
bas a son and heir and three daughters. The deceased earl
was a conservative, and chiefly known in public life for his
strong antipathy to the Maynooth grant and the admission
of Jews into parliament, and for his readiness at all times to
join in the my of "No Popery." In 1829 Lord Winchil-
sea, together with Lord Eldon, end other Wes,
strongly opposed the Roman Catholic Relief BIZ
but the Duke of Wellington had brought the whole
power of government Into action, 'and triumphantly carried
the measure. Lord Winchelsea, writing to a gentleman
connected with the then new institution of King's College,
among other observations on the duke's motives, invaded to
him an Wanks "to introduce popery into every depart-
matt of the non" The duke demanded an apology hr
the expression and, which not being given, a duel ensued
between then en the 21st of March. Lord Winchelass, after
the Oaks bed Bred and mimed, discharged hie pistol into the
sir, and than tendered the required apology, which settled
the &pate. _

THE RATE OP DISCOUNT IN BCOTLAND.-7111,
Obusow bankers on Friday adopted the following rides of
discount:—Bills on London et Muse months mad ander, 6
per cent.; bills on London above thous months, 7 pw cent. ;
all local and country bills, 7 per cent. We tither think
these rates will sosreely satisfy the eenunereisi public It
will manifestly be impossible for our limb to go on
7 per teat, when the actual market value af Mae= I
don is only shout 6 per cent. The Bank of England,
charging 6 per. cent., is attracting very little Wattle's—
