DEATH or MAJOR BROWNE, ROYAL MARINE/4.
This °dicer iii a lit of menial derangement, pill a periOd

%Vonlwteh, Kent. Extreme anxiety and dejection of
mind was the cause ol• this melancholy catastrophe. Ile

was thought possible fur him to couuuit the act ; but,
unfortunately au old dirk remained, which supported a
picture, and was 111)1 observed. Although his intellects

that when assistance was brought, he expressed a deter-
mination to renew the attempt, if !hose already made
should fail ; and altlisongis really in a state of derange-
ment of iiiitid, he seems to have very coolly made up his

A very liberal subscription has been entered into
by the inhabitants of the town of Beading and its vici-
nity, in aid of the fund to be appropriated to the
the reiief of the sufferers at Manchester on the Itith
ult., and for the purpose of obtaining legal investi-
gation as to the late arbitrary proceedings of the
Manchester Magistrates.
We just learn that his Grace the Duke of Rich-
mond, after having inspected the different forts in
Canada, returned to his house, was taken suJilenly
ill, and expired almost instantly.
It has been stated, that Lord Viscount Bury had
declined the contest for the representation of Arun-
del ; but was tounded in error ; it is true, indeed,
that some of Mr. Blake's friends issued bills to that
effect, and posted the same withinsille their windows,
where the friends of Lord Bury could not pull thcrn
down, and thence, it is sapposed, the report ut his
Lordship's declension originated and prevailed.
On Sunday evening, at eleven o'clock, his Royal
Ilighoess the Prince Re,,ent arrived at Carlton-
tor from Bliglituet, accompanied by Sir Benjamin
