friends of the Ministry, who rest their glory upon
the stage of the Funds, circulate the runiour of a

LONDON,
FRIDAY. OCTOOZR 8, No.

The death of the Duke of RICHMOND, nor
readers are aware, was awfully sudden,but by ac-
counts received in town yesterday from Quebec, we
learn with extreme pain that its iiumediate c4ust
was that terrific malady the hydrophobia. ILs
Grace hail been amusing himself tv;ili a tamed fox,
and received a bite from the ;untold, which he
treated with indifference. It adds considerably to
the horror excited by this appalling eveirt, dolt
his Grace, on the first sense of Illness, was fully
',wale that the symptoms of hydrophobia had
manifested themselves, and unfortunately from the
part of the country where he was at the time,
and the necessity he was under of walking a
very considerable distance, it is to be presumed
that lie received no ailequite medical assist•
mice, and that the excessive exercise contri-
buted to inflame the virulence of the di•rase. Dis
death wus felt by the irihabitants of Q.ithec us a
sensible calamity, fur his Grace's benesoleni and
ingenuous disposition had et:dr-tired lion to the
people, and the geuerul tone and character of his
administration met with the general coocurreme of
those who weer best capable of appreciating its
effects. The Quebec P4pers of the ‘2.1 of Set.-
!ember do not mention the par►icul.;rs of his
death, but they are fully stated iri private tette',
received in London, an extract front one of which
is subjoined. A Cork Paper also corroborates the
intelligence, by publishing extracts from. two letters
received by merchants in that city, from their cor-
respondents at Quebec, in which hydrophobia is
stated as the cause of this sudden calamity.

We are happy tri learn, further, that tin part of
his Grace's family was so datigeroio.ly ill us was at
first reported. Thvy are only in that situation
which might be expected front so severe au italic:-

person who ir-ides in this country, with full powers
from the Gayer ttttt rot of Chile, has not given this

vent the consequences which a misunderstanding on

it known to the public.

On Sunday last there was a Vestry Meeting held
at Gateshead, with the alleged view of putting
down the mantes of the inhabitants to serve as spe-
cial constable., and for the purpose of voting a
loyal and dutiful" address. The REcroit and

put, that the inhabitants should enrol themselves,
there were four or live bards agaiost it, hit se-
send persons comity; oho hail not heard the
proceedings, the hornless was again opened.—
Mr. JOHN F.IMINGTON and Mr. W. KELL, ex-
pressed it as their opinion, that they should be
convinced of the necessity for special constables,
hefore ally such proceeding us was proposed should
take place. Eveny man vdio refused to come forward
when called upoii, there being a necessity, was
liable to be iudictrd, and they thought it would he

forward at that time might seem to infer that their
loyalty had been suspected. The Rector, in
the course of the proceedings, read an extract
from a letter, tit which it was said that there
