MR. CANNING.

We'are happy in being able to state that Mr. Secretary
Canning is quite recovered from his late illness, and that, the
Right honourable Gentleman never was in the enjoyment of
better health.

The Right Honourable George Canning intends coming from
Cheltenham to this city,-for the purpose of paying another visit
to the Marquis of Wellesley. Two other distinguished English-
-men are also expected to visit this country_Henry Brougham,
Esq. and Sir Francis Burdett ; the former at the termination of
his Circuit business, and the latter in the course of the present
month.—(Dublin Evening Post.)

His Royal Highness the Duke of Yort.F. passed through this
town on Sunday last on his way to Baslow, to join the Dukes
of Rutland, Devonshire, and Richmond, on a shooting excur-
sion on the moors in that neighbourhood. In consequence of
orders having been received at the King's Head IlotO the pre-
ceding evening, to have a relay of horses by ten o'clock on the
following morning, his Royal Highness's intended arrival be-
came generally known, and a great concourse of people as-
sembled to pay him every mark of respect. His Royal High-
ness did not arrive till nearly one. Be looked remarkably
well, and after the few minutes occupied in changing horses
(during which he evinced the most condescending manners) he
proceeded on his journey amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the
populace.—(Derby Mercury.)
MARRIAGE IN HIGH LlFE.—Yesterday was married, at
the New Church, St. Pancras, by the Rev. George Osborne
Townshend, John, eldest son of Lord John Townshend, of
Balls Park, Hertfordshire, to Elizabeth Jane, eldest daughter
of Lord George Stuart. The bride was given away by the
_Marquis of Bute. There were present several relatives of the
two Noble Families. Shortly after the ceremony, the happy
couple set Off for Captain Chard's villa at Richmond, where
they intend to pass the honey-moon.—The Noble Party par-
took of an elegant dejeunc at Batts' Hotel, in Dover-street.

Rvng.—Our season may now be said to be at its height,
and never at any former period has it been so crowded with fa-
shionable and most respectable company. The marine pro-
menade, the Pier, which cfFoids an ever varying scene, is
thronged to excess every eveninp,..until dusk, when the public
roans at the Library become the scene of attraction. The

wards of 60 persons, and dancing continued with much spirit
until a late hour. Our Theatre, which has been newly deco-
rated, opened on Monday last, to a very good house, and we
hope the exertions of Mr. Barnett, the manager, will meet with
every success. ~tmongst the latest arrivals are the following:—

LORD COCIIRANE.—The following particulars
respecting Lord COCHRANE come from a quarter on which we
can rely :—" His Lordship had on Thursday morning a meet-
ing with the leading members of the Greek Con;mittee. His
proposals to them are of the most liberal description. By re-
signing his situation of First Admiral of the Brazilian Navy,
his Lordship gives up nearly 6,0061. a year, and a pension,
upon retiring, of half that sum, settled upon himself and Lady
for life ; besides unliquidated claims to a considerable amount.
His Lordship leaves it to the Committee to settle the amount
of the recompence to be awarded to him for his services; but
he expressly stipulates, that the auxiliary expedition shall be
placed under his whole and sole controul—the trammels in
which his Lordship repeatedly found himself, while in South
America; having tended greatly to impede, and even endanger,
the success of his naval operations."—(Times.)

His Holiness LEO. XII., wishing to give a
signal proof of his regard for the family of M.
CLERMONT-TONNERRE, who tins rendered great
services to the Holy See, created, on his eleva-
tion to the Papal Chair, M. Lieutenant-General
Clermont Tonnere a itoman Prince. His Ma-
jesty, by an ordinance of July 27, has authorised
him to bear that title, and transmit it to his de-
scendants without prejudice to their rights as
Frenchmen.—(Eloile.)
Yesterday a deep trick was played off on a
lady named MiouLEToN, residing in'King-street;
Soho-square, by.a man having the appearance of
a labourer, who called at her house and in-
formed her that her mother, who resided at
Highgate, was on the point of death, and desired
to see her without loss of time ; that such was
the urgency of the case, he had come away with-
out changing his dress, and trusted that she
would give him something. for his trouble, and
upon being asked what would satisfy him, said
ss. Mrs. Middleton observed, that she had not
so much silver about her, but that if he accom-
her part of the way, it should be given
panied
him, which he consented to. On the road he
said he could obtL.
n change of a sovereign of
:
the toll-gate-keeper, which was intrusted to
him, Mr. Middleton pas'sing through the gate, ex-
pecting him to follow, but instead of which he
decamped wiih the whole. It was ten o'clock
at night when she reached Highgate, and found
her mother in perfect health. The fellow can be
recognized both by Mrs. Middleton and the toll-
collector, from Nvhom he received the change,
and deserves to be well punishtd for his pains.
