No. 55, Tottenham-court road, who precipitated himself

deceased, it appear:, bad lately been in very ember'

for his friends to keep a close watch over his actions, but
this morning, during the temporal absence of the party
at'endin,,,,, upon him, he took advantage of the oppor
nity, and without even waiting to raise the sash of the
window, he jumped through the frame into the street.
The unfortunate man was immediately picked uiptLd d
conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital, 7hereietre to
ur&,itwas

congestion of the brain supervening on cholera, of Mr.
Edward Raleigh Moran, for more than eighteen ears

residence on Saturday last, aeter a fortnight's illness'.
He was a man of considerable accomplishments, and, in

his manners and his genuine goodness of heart IT
cause his loss to be sincerely regretted by a large circle
