DEATH BY DROWNING.-011. Friday after.
noon, at six o'clock, as a party of boys were bathing in the
River, at Chiswick, off one of his Grace the Duke of DEVON-
Buntes fields, called Corney Mead, a lad, sixteen years of
age, named Henry Butts, got out of his depth, and being en-
tangled in the weeds, sank almost instantly. The Duke was
walking on the lawn at the time, and on witnessing the catas.
trophe, hastened to the spot, and evinced the most intense
anxiety to recover the body. The drags belonging to the Hu-
mane Society, kept at the Red Lion, Chiswick, were imme-
diately sent for ; but, we regret to add, *;ere not in order, and,
consequently, could not be used. The Duke begged, Among
the many Gentlemen who assembled in their boats, that one of
them would row over to Barnes, for the nets kept there, which
was done—and, in the mean time, the nets of some fisher-
men were sent for from Hammersmith, but the tide being
against them, a considerable delay aiose: The net arriv-
ed, and was drawn over the reeds, but unsuccessfully ; and
after about three quaiters of an hour, the body was fished up
by a waterman's oar, anti taken to Mr. Hobb's, tenant of the
Duke's, close by (by the Duke's desire), where every exertion
recommended by the Society was used. After two hours, how-
ever, it was found that every effort was useless. The Puke,
when he found all their labours in vain' to resuscitate the body,
assured the brother of the poor lad that lie would relieve the dis-
tressed parents (the father is a bricklayer at Hammersmith), in
every way he could.

Lady BYnox has got a pleasure yacht on the
coast of Kent, in which she lives almost entirely
at sea, and 'sails between the French and English
shores. She is accompanied by her daughter,
and some females of her own family. When she
lands, she avoids the larger towns, and secludes
herself in the smaller villages.
