Late MARQUISES of LONDONDERRY.

Monuments have been erected in the Church
of Newtownarde, in the North of Ireland, to the memory of the
late venerable Marquis of LONDONDERRY, and also to that of
the illustrious Statesman, his son. Those monuments are of
the most beautiful Parian marble, simple but elegant, and ex-
ecuted in the most masterly style by Westmacott of London.
On the tablet of that to the memory of the father is the follow-
ing inscription :
Sacred to the Memory of
ROBERT, First Marquis of LONDONDERRY.
He was born A.D. 1739,
Created Earl of Londonderry A.D. 1796,
And Marquis A.D. 1816.
He died at Mount Stewart April 6, A.D. 1821,
And was buried in the family vault near this place.
Through the whole of a long life
He devoted himself with unceasing assiduity
To promote the welfare of Ireland.
Residing in the midst of his tenantry, and watching over
their interests with solicitude little less than paternal,
Having attained a mature and vigorous old age,
Respected by all who knew his virtues,
Honoured by his tenantry and friends,
And tenderly beloved by his wife and children,
He finished his course on earth,
Resting his hopes of a blessed immortality
On their only true foundation,
Faith in JESUS CHRIST.
In commemoration of his exemplary life,
this tablet is erected by his second son,
Charles William Vane,
Third Marquis of Londonderry.
On that to the memory of the late lamented and illustrious
Statesman, we read as follows :
Sacred to the Memory of
ROBERT, Second Marquis of LONDONDERRY.
He was born A. D. 1769.
. .

And having filled many of the highest stations in public life,
Succeeded to the paternal honours and estates in April
A. D. 1821.
He died at North Cray, in Kent, August 12, 182.
His remains were interred in Westminster Abbey.
History will record the success and splendour of his public career,
during a period of difficulty unexampled
in the annals of Europe.
This Tablet commemorates his private worth and the
virtues of his personal character.

Foremost among the Statesmen of the age,
He was not less distinguished by the faithful discharge of all the
duties of social life.

As a son, a brother, a husband, and a friend.
His memory will ever be cherished with affectionate
veneration

By those who find their only consolation for his loss in the
recollection of his virtues.
This tribute
To the best of brothers and of friends,
is offered by
Charles William Vane,
Third Marquis of Londonderry.

NEW ROYAL MEWS, PIMLICO.—This exten-
sire range of buildings is now bordering on completion, and
consists of a principal quadrangle for his MAJtsTY's stud,
and adjacent buildings for the reception of the horses of his
Royal Highness the Duke of YORK; in the former are two
ranges of stables, containing stalls for 24 state horses, the creams
and his late Majesty's favourite blacks, the remainder being
apportioned for his Majesty's private carriage horses and hacks.
Those for the State horses are already finished, as are the Royal
Duke's, in Arabella-row.

A portion of the capital appropriated by the
Bank of England to the lending on mortages, is
at length about to find its way into circulation.
Within a week from this time, there will be ad-
vanced, it is said, to different mortgages, about
400,0001. It is nearly twelve months since the
first adaption of the measure, but the various dif-
ficulties started of a legal and genuine nature,
have so long retarded the payment of the money.
The Emperor of MOROCCO'S sons are brought
up in the following singular manner :—As soon as they are
born, the Emperor sends for a Moor of fortune (not one of the
first people of rank), and delivers his son to him, to bring him
up as his own. The child never sees his father again till he is
12 years old. The Moor to whose care he has been delivered
is then ordered to bring him to Court, where he is examined by
a council respecting the Koran, laws of the country, &c. ; and
upon this examination depends the fate of the Moor. If the
Emperor approves of the education of his son, the foster father's
fortune is made ; if not, he is immediately cut to pieces in the
Emperor's presence.
CHINESE PHYSICIANS.--The physicians of China,
by feeling the arms of a sick man in three places
—to observe the slowness, the increase, or quick-
ness of the pulse—can judge of the cause, the
nature, the danger, and the duration of his dis-
order. Without their patient's speaking, they
reveal infallibly what part is affected. They are
at once physicians and apothecaries, composing
the remedies they prescribe. They are paid
when they have completed a cure ; but they re-
ceive nothing when their remedies do not take
effect. European physicians, it must be con-
fessed, are by no means soskilful as the Chinese;
but in one thing they have the advantage over
them, which is in taking their fees before they
have performed the cure. Thus unlearned phy-
sicians ride iu their chariots in London ; while
learned ones walk on foot in Pekin.

COLCHESTER, APRIL 19.—0 n Wednesday last,
JOSEPH SMITH, a promising young man, 21 years
of age, the son of the late JOSEPH SMITH, of
Stansteed Deal, whilst upon a visit to his uncle,
Mr. COZENS, of Magdalen Laver Hall, put a
period to his existence by shooting himself with
a pistol. The deceased was at the time in an
uneasy state of mind, which being proved to the
satisfaction of the Coroner's Jury, they returned
a verdict of I nsanity.—(Bury Gazette.)

EXECUTION.—The four unfortunate men who
received sentence of death at the Suffolk Assizes,
viz. Robert Bradnum, John Wright, and Benja-
min Hozolett, for burglary, and John Cheney, for
the same offence and for horse-stealing., were ex-
ecuted on Wednesday at noon, near the gaol in
Bury. The conduct of all the culprits, after
their conviction, was marked with the utmost pro-
priety. They confessed the enormity of their
crimes and the justice of their sentences, and
warned their wives and former associates to adopt
a different course of life. On Sunday a most
affecting sermon was preached by the chaplain,
the Rev. W. STOCKING, and the solemnity was
greatly heightened by a coffin being placed before
the unhappy men. Their feelings on this occasion
were so powerfully worked upon by the eihorta-
tions of the Rev. Gentleman that they wept aloud.
Application had been made to his MAJESTY for
pardon for Cheney, the two last years of whose
life have been entirely occupied by trespasses on
the laws of his country ; and the only amelio-
rating circumstances were that he had never shed
blood or used violence. The four culprits were
some of them under and none beyond the vigour
of life. The number of persons assembled to
witness the melancholy spectacle of four human
beings paying the forfeit of their lives to the
offended laws of their country) was immense.
