sad that the ribs were uninjured. After the consul-
it was determined to reduce this fracture, but
cisme to the extreme sensibility of the patient, the
operation was not completely performed, and at the
erfiratioe i f a few hours the patient entreated that
et Might be released from the bandages, end they
vete ecoordingly taken off.
Ir.r.tg Saturday evening, Sir Robert was eu-
n...tel to see Lady Peel and the members of Irs
ismiiy: but after this time it was thought advisable
to exclude all strangers from the apartment, in order
ti 'es-in the probability of subjecting the patient to
any el tree of excitement. Sir Robert passed a test-
on Saturday, his extreme sensibility to
tout ..,crating hourly, and his symptoms altogether
becoming eery alarming, which at the first, we be-
ton we are correct in stating, toms of the medi-
cs. grail:met in attendance did not consider the.

tier Nloadaysight the alarming symptoms were greatly
Neste-ed. Auout siren o'clock Sir Robert became
delirinos, and attempted to raise himself up in bid.
In ail state he continued during the greater put of
the ri4'it, and at intervals he became so much =-
hawed that his ntectical attendants several times
wen of opinies that be could not survive through tte
meat. In tee paroxysms of his matting., Sir Robert's
thoughts were with his oldest and dearest friends,
and tte names of Hardinge, and Graham, and Bun-
ten, were frequently urn his lips. At four o'clock
on Tuesday more:ng Sir Robert fell into a sound
sleep, in which he continued uninterruptedly until
eight o'clock. On awaking, his mind was quite
composed, and his nv,,.ital attendants considered
Lim to he much refrested by the rest he had en-
joyed. There war still, however, cause for intense
anx.t.y. From the period of the accident up to this
time (nearly 70 hoarse Sir Hebert had taken no
other eustenance than a glass of champagne and the
yolk if saw egg bates up, which be was induced
with some difficulty to swallow. Medicine had
been airdnistertd, as a matter of course, bet
throughout the same lengthened period the system
had remained perfectly inactive. The pulse had
greatly increaled on Tuesday, marking from 112 to
and becoming very weak. At noon, on Tuesdays
hir It :lilt expressed himself to he a little easier.i
Tem relief war, unhappily, of short duration. At
two o'elock far more dangerous symptoms than any
which had yet been observed presented themselves.
At this tone Sir Robert began to breathe atertorously,
aid hie 'eases again failed him, lie ceased to answer
all of the questions addressed to him, and appeared
to be 'sinking into a comatose state. Sir Betjamin
bridle, who had left the mansion, was again sent for,
and on his arrival agreed with Dr. Foucart and the
other medical gentlim in that the case now ass arced
a mist dangerous aspect. The pulse had become
Ty auk, and masked 118. From two o'clock to
six (lank, the charge for the worse in the right hon.
!mronet's symptoms was progreesive,the pulse increas-
ing to 130, and becoming gradually weaker. Stienu-
luta were administered, but had no apparent effect,
sad the stertorous breathing became more and more
potful.. Tne relatives were now informed that all

of the right mem& predate it wee intimated be
Inly Peel an the memberset the badly that they
might now, without risk of Merman the daugerous
seaditioa of the patine, be admitted to the apartment
I. whin he was lying. Is a few moments the whole
family woes awembled is the presume of their beloved
relative, whose azhausted esaditiee, at this time,
scamely ambled him to retains their identity.
It is sot the provisos of be *realist to violate
the sanctity of primes feeling, and therefore this
ratios of oar narrative oseusserily omits all matters
of detail. It is es*eieat to say that the lamented
eniker's ewes@ were saffinetly revivPd during one
glel~ofthe interview to suable him to indentify the
et those beloved ones 'serenading hie conch
—.Janne whom he at length extended his faltering
heed, aid is as attitude bespeaking the iatessity of
his %slaw, whispered in a scarcely audible voice—
" f3ed bh es you!"
At the teresiartion of this distressing scene Vis-
aing Hardinge, who had arrived at the mansion
mem time previously, and Sir James Graham, the old
Mead of Sir Robert, who had been in-
ieusd of the fatal result anticipated, and had come
dews to Wbitehall-gardens, were admitted to the
peessece of the patient, now rapidly sinking. Both
of these distinguished gentlemen were painfully
affected.
At nine o'clock Sir Robert had become so ex-
hausted as to be callous to all external expressions.
The members of his family still remained nest him
with the exception of Lady Peel, whose painfully ex-
cited feelings rendered it absolute'y necessary to re-
move her from the apartment. The sufferer's
strength war, however, so tar exhausted, that al-
though he gave occasional ind cations of being am-
silie of their presence, the power of utterance had
altogether ceased, and it soon became evident that his
end was rapidly approccbing.
Sir Robert ceased to exist at nine minutes after
eleven o'clock. Thera were present at his decease his
three broteers—the Den el Worcester, Colonel Peel,
Mr. and Mrs. Laurence Peel; three of his eons—Mr.
F. Peel, M.P., Captain W. Peel, R.N., and Mr. Arthur
Peel ; his son-in-law, Lord Villiers ; Lord Hardinge,
Sir James Graham, and the medical gentlemen in
attendance. Sensibeity to pain had ceased some time
b.-fore death, and the last moments of the right hon.
baronet were not disturbed by any physical suffering.
After death an examination of the body was made,
when a mat important fact was for the first time die-
eovend, viz., that the fifth rib on the left side eras
fractured. This was the region where Sir Robert
complained of the greatest pain, and there is much
reason to fear it was the seat of mortal injury, the
broken rib pressing on the lung, and producing what
is technically known as effusion and pulmonary en-
gorgement.
Tue family were consulted as to their wishes on the
subject of a post mortem examination, but both Mr
Frederick Peel and Captain Peel objected to allow
the remains to be disturbed in any way, and the pre-
cise cause of death will therefore never be ascertained.
An application for permission to take a cast of the
face, from an eminent sculptor, was also refers. d.
Lady Peel continued, throughout Tuesday night,
in a state of the deepest prostration, and yesterday
morning her illness had so much increased that it
was found necessary to call in Sir Benjamin Brodie.
The Quern sent to inquire after her I.dyship at an
early hour. The Duchess of Gloucester, and whir
members of the royal family, also sent to make in-
quiries, and his Royal Highness Prince George called
personally, t e ascertain the state of her ladyship.
The Duke of Wellington called at one o'clock, to
offer his condolements. His grace wished to have
Len Ltdy Peel, but her ladyship was not sufficiently
well to receive him. The Dueress of Inverness, the
Russian Minister, and several other members of the
nobility, called to inquire after Lady Peel daring the
day.
Several of the principal mercantile establishments'
in the City and at the West-end manifested their
high respect for the lamented deceased, and their deep
regret at his premature demise, by closing their win-
dows, a proceediealmost universally adored in the
neighbourhood of Whitehall. The flags of many yea-
, sels on the river, and also on many public buildings,
were hoimei half-mast high, as a mule of respect to
i the memory of the deceased.
P The body was planed in a shell last evening, and
the funeral will, it is expected, take place in the mau-
soleum of the family at Drayton, neer Tamworth, in
the early port of the ensuing week.

LiveirooL, JULY 3.—Never &nee the death of

the Livetpsol and Manchester Railway, on September 13,
1830. his stub a gloom bnn thrown over the political, nets
main, and, indeed, all classes in this great coratouni!yr, es
was caused this morning by the wriest in Liverpool of the
distressirg intelligence of the death of Sir Hobert P.ll
Myer sines the sad accident which has resulted fa the death
of this ilisstrious statesman was first kanwn here, it has
Armed the subject of constant and anxious conversation
anetnrst all classes, and the intense intend Llt to know the
ease of the right honourable baronet's health his been alto-
gether unprecedented. The accounts received from London
yesterday, frost time to time, by electric telegraph, caused
the most painful apprehension in the minds of the people
ea 'Change and elsewhere, and the gin, ral feeling seemed
to be that the late accident would terminate as—to the
groat Ices of the country—it has terminated, in the death of
mu of the greatest statesmen of whom the nation had ever
season to be prou f. It is inthoesible to describe the shock
hn h the mournful intelligence has produced.
As sally as nine o'clock this morning, indeed sometime be•
fore the ordinary business hoer commenced, the news had
spread all over the town, and it may truly be said that
nothinc else has been talked about dating the day. At as
earl, hour flags were hoisted halt-mast tigh in tie Town-
hall, the Custom-bowie, St. George's hall, the Content.
Institution, the Blue:oat. hospital, and other public charities,
as well as the different churches and chapels, and On in the
