The Late Thomas Colley Grattan,

This well-known novelist and essayist has jast
died at the age of 68. Mr. Grattan, who was born
in Dublin in 1796, was the son of Mr. Colley Grat-
tan, of Edenderry, King's County. He was in-
tended for the profession of the law, but having
an uncle and two cousins in the army (one, Major
Grattan, commanded the Royal Irish in the East
Indies and in China), he entered the militia in the
hope of getting a commission. It may be added
that his. brother William was the author of a well-
known book, "Adventures of a Connaught Ran.
ger, 1808.14," published in 1847. Thomas Grattan
served as a volunteer in the South American army
in the war of independence against the yoke of
Spain, but marrying a Miss O'Donnell, he left the
service and settled in the south of France, In 1819
he produced " Phillibert," a poetical romance, in
the style of Scott—longo intervallo, however—
which was not successful. He then removed
his establishment to Paris, and made acquain-
tance with Beranger, Casimir, Perier, Moore,
Washington Lying, Lamartine, and other distil),
guisbed men, and became a regular contributor
to the _Edinburgh Review, and to the New Monthly
Magaz:ne, then under the editorship of Thomas
Campbell. In 1823 appeared " Highways and
Byewaye, by a Walking Gentleman," the work by
which Mr Grattan will be best remembered. This
book had a great sale, and brought the author many
offers from the booksellers, which induced him to
bring out a second and third series. Then he pro-
duced in succession "Ben Nazir the Saracen," a
play written for Kean (after which he left Bou-
logne, where he had been living, for Brussels),
" Tales of Men and Cities" (1829), " Traits of Tra-
vel," " The Heiress of Bruges" (1831), " The His-
tory of the Netherlands," " Jaqueline of Holland
(1831), which latter caused his expulsion from Brus-
sels, and his residence in Holland and Heidel-
berg, where he wrote his "Legends of the Rhine,"
and "Agnes de Mansfeldt." On the ecerssion of
Prince Leopold of Saxe.Coburg to the newly-
Brussels,
created throne of Belgium Mr Grattan returned to
and in 1839 was appointed, at the special
request of hie Majesty, British Consal at Boston,
His new office brought out his ta:ent in a new
direction, and his pamphlet on the boundary ques-
tion in America, In 1848 he was permitted, as a
favour, to resign this office to his son, who had been
acting as his deputy, and he was appointed a gen-
tleman of the Privy Chamber in the royal household.
Mr Grattan has also written " Civilised America,"
" Women of Colour," " The Cagot's Port and the
Conscript's Bride" (1847), " England and the
Disrupted States of America" (1861), Beaten
Paehs, and Those who Trod them" (1862) c'ec.
His personal reminiscences were very interesting,
and contain many curious anecdotes about men and
manners of various countries. 'qr.; Grattan, after
a severe illness, expired at his residence in Jeriseyn-
street.

Rossin is announced to have just completed a
now musical composition. of considerable interest and im-
portance--a homage to the memory and the genius pf his
great rival and contemporary, Neyerbeer,
