With sentiments of the deepest sorrow and regret,

:the Moat

:She Moat Noble Order of the Garter. Governor
eral of the East India Company's Possessions,
and Commander-in-Chief of His Majesty's, and the

service of his country in India were devoted some
of the most vigorous years of his valuable life ; and
there, at an advanced period of it, has it pleased
Divine Providence to terminate his earthly career
of honour and of glory.
British India will ever be proud to associate with
its happiness, its prosperity, and renown, the grate-
ful remembrance of its venerated benefador, Mar-
gni: Cornwallis ; and the Natiie Powers of India
will sincerely regret a man, soh* so detervedly pos-

esteem.

By his Sovereign. and his country. the death of
Marquis Cornwallis will he d.plored as a public
calamity. Europa at large. to whom his lame and
his virtues have long been familiar. will lament tie
loss of such exalted and respetieJ worth ; and his-
tory will record his magnanimity, his benevolence,
his love of justice. his inflexible integrity, his ardent
