The'death of the celebrated_THOMAS Lord LYT-'
e
TLETON, from-the singularity of the circumstances -
attending'it, cannot fail to live in.the memory of
those who -have heard. it. He prolesiied to have-
been •
.warned of •his death and' the time thereof,
as follows :--7•About a week ,before lie died, he
said he went to bed, pretty Well, but restless
Soon after his servant had left him, he heard a
footstep at the bottom of his bed ; .he raised him-
self in order to'sce -what it could be, when ,one
of the most angelic female figures that imagina-
tion coul4l possibly paint, presented .itself hefore
hhn, and, with a commanding yoke anti action,
bade him attend, and prepare hinisell,
..or on such-
-9 _night, and at the hour; of htelve, he (you'd Surely
die! -.He attempted to address the vision, •itut
was unable, and the ghost vanished, and left him
in' a state more easily conceived than could be
described. His valet found him in the morning -
More dead than alive, and it was some hours be-
fore his Lordship could be recoyered sufficiently -
to send for his friend's, to whom he thOught it ne-
cessary to communicate this extraindini-Wy
cumstanee. I.lr. MIL PETER ANDREWS Wits one • ,
of the number sent for, being,at that time one of
his. most intiniate associates.: Every person to
whom Lord. L. •told the tale, naturally turned it
intri -ridicule-77A8 knowing hint. to be very new -
ems and superstitious, and tried to 'Wake him be-
was a dream ; ,as they certainly considered
mi.-themselves. Lo:rd L. filled his- house with
Company, and appeared to think as his friends '
would wit him. Mr. M. P. ANDREWS had bUSi-• '
MSS which called him to I/aril-hill,
.and there-
hire soon took his lease, thinking Lord Lv7-
TLETON quite composed on this subject, -so that
his Itiend's dreams dwelt so little on his
tion, that he (lid not even recollect the time %%ien
!t was predierd • that Ike event ((mold take place.
• One night after he left Pitt-place., Jcsidenee
of Lord LYTn.rrox, he supposed he might, have
been in bed -half an hour, when end'eaVoirriirg
to compose himself, suddenly his curtains were
palled opeo„ and Lord L. appeared. lief:ore hint
int his bed-side, standing in his robe de' ehambre
and night-cap. Mr.A..looked at him purelime,
and thoUght it. so oddot freak of his friend's, that -
he-began to reproach him for his folly, -in condng ,
down to Dartford Mills without ,notice, s he
could find no accommodation ; however, Said he,
get up, and see what can be done. Lie vitris
ed to the other side-of the bed, and rang the bed,
when Lord L. disappeared. Mr. A's, servant
soon after entered, when his master inquired, where
iS Lord LYTTLETON ? The servant, all astonish-
ment, declared he had not seen any-thing of •
his Lordship since they left Pitt-place. P'shaw,
you fool, replied Mr. A. he was here this mothent
at my bed-side. The servant persisted that it• was
not possible. Mr. A. dressed himself, and, with
the servants, searched every part of the boost:
and garden, but no Lord was to he• found ; still
Mr. A. could not help believing that Lord L.
had played hi,m this trick for his disbelief of his
vision, till about four o'clock, the same day,' an
expsess arrived to .inforin him of Lord L's death,
and the manner of it, by a friend who was-pre-
sent, and gave the following particular account
of it. That On the morning before Lord L. died,
lie entered the breakfast -mom between ten and
eleven o'clock ; appeared rather thoughtfid, and
did not answer any intpqries made by his friends
respecting his health, tke.. At dinner he seen•led
much better, and, when thescloth was taken away,
he exclaimed "'Richard's himself again'." but as
night came one the gloom of the morning return-
ed. However, as This was the predicted night of
dissolution; his friends agreed that it would be
right to alter the clocks and watches in the, -
This was managed by the steward, without Lord..
L. suspecting any thing of it, Iris own watch,'
Which lay on his dressing table, being altered by' •
his valet. During the evening they got him-into
some pleasant discussions, in which he distin-
guished himself with peculiar wit and pleasantry.
At half after eleven, as he conceived it, froM the
alteration of the clocks, (but-it was only eleven),
he said he was tired, and ‘‘ould retire -to he:l 3
bid thew a good night, and left them all delient-
ed with his calm appea:ance. ati'ing the thy,.
not the least hint was given by any one to him of

withdrawn, the conversation instantly turned,. .
upon it. The discourse, Continued tiff nearly

crying out, ". My Loral is , dying !" Ills friends

gave to them the following statement, viz. That

VITTORIA, SEPT. 30.---The letters from Madrid

do not contain any news 'of importance. The
-Minister Gongara leas given in his resignation ;
pt,ret .1" provisionally filled by 'his colleague,
M. Perez Viliatnis. Two Inspectors-General,
M. Vilialba and' `O'Donaghuck
,lave been dis;
missed_

We are more .occupied in these i'rovinces with
cur own domestic affairs. The two Minas, the
Untie and the Nephew, have disappeared- No
one knows what their intentions are. The
banding of the troops which composed the Par-
tar> • knOwil by their name, has counteracted the
-ambitious view's' or the self-love of those Chiefs. The
firmness of the Viceroy of Navarre, Count Espeleta,
is constantly necessary to keep in check all the
passions that are now in a state of agitation.—
Tile two Minas have a great number of partizans,
in this country. They organized those bat-Ids of
Volunteers, which attracted so much notice'dur-
ing the war. Espoz-Mina, who took the coin-,
nand during the time that his nephew was a pri-
soner of war, has upon several occasions displayed
great bravery; but he is an uninformed man. The
young Mina passed four years in the dungeons of
Vincennes, where his education was cultivated by
french qfficers. He cptitted his dungeon on the
entry of the Allies into Paris. 1•:-Iis advice will
have great- influence upon his Uncle.. He is an
• ardent yourg man, and may do honour to his
- country, if, under the present circumstances, he
dues not take a wrong direction. He is not now
twenty-five years of age.

Several arrests have taken place at Madrid;---
The Freemasons are the objects of some very se
vere pamphlets. It is not thought that political
causes- have led to these rigorous measures, he=
cause boy several years past many of the Cortes
party, many of the French party, and many who
did not belong to either party, were Freemasons,
particularly in the maritime cities.

It is said that the Province of Catalonia has
sent a Devutation to the King, to solicit the liberty
of such of their Representatises as are how in
