what better.

DEATII OF Ma. 13n..tuxm.—The death of Mr. Braham
took place on Sunday. It was John Brahatn who,
beyond any other man, excited in this country a know-
ledge and love of the highest musical art; but the
unhounded popularity which he so long enjoyed was
derived not so much from the Italian opera, as from the
fact that he expressed. in his well-known songs, with
wonderful force and fire, the national feelings of his

The immense fortune which his genius and
energy had once gained, was lost by nnforunate specu-
lations ; but his declining years have been passed in
the most cheerful comfort, sezured to him by the care of
his daughter, Lady Waldegrave. He died unexpectedly,
but not unpripared, full of years and of honours.

DEATH OF THE DUKE OF NORFOLK.—We deeply regret
to have to announce the death of his Grace the Duke of
Norfolk, which took place yesterday morning, at Arundel
Castle. The Duke had been for some days past somewhat
unwell, but no danger was apprehended until Sunday
night, when a serious change for the worse took place, and
at ten yesterday morning he expired. The deceased, Henry
Charles Howard, thirteenth Duke of Norfolk, was the head
of the nobility of England, held the hereditary office of Earl
Marshal, and was a Knight of the Garter. He succeeded
his father in 1842. Born in 1791, the Duke married in
1811, the eldest daughter of the first and sister of the present
Duke of Sutherlald, by whom he had issue the Earl of
Arundel and Surrey, now Duke of Norfolk, Lord Edward
Howard, Lord Bernard Howard, who died abroad some

; Lady Foley, and Lady Adelira, recently married
to Lord George Manners." The present Duke is married to
the daughter of S r Edmund Lyons, and, by her, his lord-
ship has Henry Fitzilan, now Earl of Arundel and Surrey,
and several sons and daughters. The death of the Duke

SUICIDE OF MR. JOHN SADLIER, M.P.—The most
painful sensation was created on Sunday last, by
the announcement that Mr. John Sadlier, for many years
connected wi'h the Irish representative body, and
identified with several of the leading monetary and
commercial enterprises, in the city of London, had
committed suicide. The unfortunate
.gentleman was
found cold and lifeless, at half•past eight o'clock on Sun-
day morning, in a secluded portion of Hampstead
Heath, near the Jack Straw Castle Hotel. Beside him
lay a large bottle, which contained the essential oil of
bitter almonds, and it was but too evident that with
this powerful poison he had terminated his existence.
There were a few men outside the house of Rothschild
who speculated to, such an extent in foreign and conti-
nental railways and mining undertakings, and it is
believed that during the last few weeks he sustained
such enormous losses, as not only completely dissipated the
large fortune he was known to have amassed, but
involved his affairs in hopeless and inextricable ruin.
On the person of deceased were found several pounds in
gold, a Bank of England note of £5, a silver cream
ewer, containing a portion of bitter almonds ; a bottle,
containing a portion of bitter almonds, labelled as such
in six places, and marked poison; a razor case, contain.
ing two razors. Dr. Nichol at once proceeded to the
residence of Mr. Sadlier and saw the housekeeper only,
who informed him that she bought the poison on
Saturday, at Maitland's, Chester-terrace, Hyde-park, by
her master's orders, and that her master wrote many
letters, and one to a Mr. Norris, who was expected
at his house in the course of the day. It appears that
Mr. Sadlier left his house about half-past eleven o'clock
on Saturday night, and, as yet, nothing further has been
ascertained of his movements.
