Ills Royal Highness the Duke of (LoucEsmt.
arrived on Thursday last at the Castle Hotel, Priory, klactingi,
As soon as the intelligence was known, the inhabitants caused
the church bells to be put in requisition. In the year 17P9,
his Royal Highness honoured Ilastinl.Ts with a visit, but we are
apprehensive, at this petiod, that indisposition may be the
motive of a second sojourn : should that be the case, we sin-:
cerely hope that the mild arid salubrious atmosphere of that
spot will restore health to the Royal Visiter.—tLeurs journal.)

An article in the Frankfort Papers states, that
a gold mine has been discovered in the Isle of &talus. should
this prove true, it clay be of essential service to the Greeks.
Mr. L. L. EDELUERG, merchant, Lamiskrotia,

illness, JOILN BURK!: FlTZSlmmolvs, Esq., for many yPars
a Magistrate of the county of Dublin. The rebellion of 1793
called into action the zeal and loyalty of Mr. Fitzsimmons,.
who o% many occasions distivuished himself for 'intrepi-
dity, as a member of Mr. Beresibrd's Cavalry. He subse-
quently raised a corps of Yeomary at Sandymount
which he continued to command down to the period of its being
disembodied. As a public character Air. Fitzsimmons was well
known ; he was remarkable for his zeal and attachment to the
Constitution in Church and State, of both of which he was
most able and efficient supporter. For many years he was
proprietor and conductor of the llThrrn;un .Journal, and since
the deceased Mr. i Ward he has been the leader in the Common
Council of-Dublin, and the most influential man in corporate
affairs. As a political Writer, 3lr. Fitzsiiiimons was clear, con-
cise, and nervous ; as a public speaker, he was bold, energetic
and eloquent, possessing invincible personal courage. and Pn-
dewed with a warm and generous heart. lie was a kind,
and his loss will long be de-.
cere. and affectionate friend
plored by those who, acquainted with the excellent qualities of
his nature, could best estimate his merits, and appreciate his
worth.
