HOUSE OF COMMONS—WEDNESDAY, Aram 94,
1839—Foca o'CLoes P. M.
The Standing Orders Committee have just de-
cided in favour of the promoters of this Bill, and
the opponents have therefore failed in their unscru-
pulous and unwarrantable attempts to " Burke" it
on Standing Orders.
The Bill is forthwith to proceed.

DEATH OF THE EARL OF ESSEL—The
death of this 11:011y-respected noblemen took place rather
suddenly on Tuesday morning, at half-past ton o'cicek.
We arc informed that shortly before the decease of the
Noble Earl he complained of a difficulty in breathing,
when a Medical Gentleman was immediately sent for, but
before his arrival the Earl breathed his last in the arms of

his Countess. The late George Capel Coningshy, Earl
of Essex, Viscount ;Mahlon, in the County of Essex, and
Bari,n C,pel, of Hadham, in the County of Hertford, in
the Peerage of England, was born the 13th of November,
1757, and succeeded to the title the sth of March, 1799.
His Lordship had been married twice ; first, in June, 1786,
to Mrs. Sarah Stevenson, widow of Mr. Edward Steven-
son, and daughter of Mr. Henry 13.3zett, who died early in
the past year. A few months after the death of the above
lady, from whom the late Earl had been separated some
years on account of incompatibility of temper, the Noble
Earl married Miss Stephens, the distinguished vocalist,
who survives her Lord. The late Earl was a Commis-
sioner of the Metropolitan roads, Recorder and high
Steward of Leominster, a D. C. L., and F. S. A. He is
succeeded is his titles and estates by his nephew, Mr.
Algernon Capel (now Earl of Essex), who was bout
the 28th of February, 1503, and married the 14th of July,
1825, the Lady Caroline Beauclerk, daughter of the late,
and sister of the present, Duke of St. Alban's, by whom
he has a numerous family.
