The public, and especially the medical procession,
will sympathise in the deep regret with which we an-
nounce the death of Mr. Liston, the eminent surgeon.
Mr. Liston had suffered for some weeks from an affec-
tion of the throat, which proved fatal at half-past ten
o'clock on Tuesday night. Although he had scarcely
more than reached middle age, Mr. Liston had achieved
an European reputation. As an operator he was unri-
valled, but it would be unjust to suppose that in this
consisted his high excellence. No man was less inclined
to have recourse to operation when relief could be at-
tained by any other means, and no lecturer ever took
more pains to inculcate the duty of pursuing this course
of practice. To the public and to science Mr. Liston's
death may be considered a national loss ; it will be
deeply regretted by the many who have profited by his
eminent talents, and by the numerous friends in private
life to whom his kindly dispositien and estimable quali-
ties had endeared him.
DEATH OF SiR CHARLES DALBIAC.—We regret to
hear that the death of this gallant officer took place
yesterday morning, at his chambers in the Albany. His
Grace the Duke of Roxburghe, who married Sir Charles's
only child, was with his father in-in-law to the last, un-
remitting in the attention he bestowed. Sir Charles
entered the army in 1793, as cornet of the 4th Dra-
eomis, the colonelcy of which he held at the time of his
death, having got that Regiment in September, 1842.
His commissions were datcd, lieutenant, February, 1794;
captain-lieutenant, October, 1798 ; captain, May, 1800 ;
major, October, 1801 ; lieutenant-colonel, November,
1808 ; colonel, June 4, 1814. His latest commission,
that of lieutenant-general, was given in Jane, 15138. He
served with the only regimentin which he ever held a
commission, namely, the 4th Dragoons, during the
campaign of 1809, and was engaged in the battles of
Talavera, the 27th and 28th of July. He served the winter
campaign of 1810 in the lines of Lisbon, and commanded
the regiment at the affair of Campo-Mayor, in March
of the next year. In 1312 he was actively engaged at
Los Santos, Llerena, and at Salamanca, July 22. For
the gallantry of the regiment at this last named place, it
has been since permitted to bear the word " Salamanca "
upon its standards and appointments, an honour which it
shares with the sth Dragoon Guards and the 3d Dra-
goons. Sir Charles Dalbiac was the author of a Military
Catechism for the use and instruction of young officers
and non-commissioned officers in the cavalry. He was an
ardent disciple of Izaak Walton.
The remains of the late lamented Mrs. Brydges,
of Catherine-place, Bath, were on Monday privately
removed thence for interment in the vault of her great
uncle, the late rector of St. James's, Westminster, un•
derneath St. James's Chapel, H.R., built during his forty
years' incumbency. The first occupant of it was his
wife, Mrs. Griffin Parker, sister and heir of Griffin Lord
Howard do Walden and Baron Braybrooke, who died at
Bath in November, 1799 (vide obituary in the Gentk-
man's Magazine). Mrs. Brydges was the only surviving
issue of Captain W. Parker, and ward of Dr. Parker,
who, with her aunt, brought her up as their adopted, in
the rectory house, with the tenderest care and affection.
She was extensively known, esteemed, and regretted.
Her father and her husband's mother lie buried near.
In the chapel are some simple monuments and tablets to
the memories of Mrs. Griffin Parker, Dr. Parker, le
Comte do Welderen, their brother-in-law, &c., twenty
years ambassador from Holland to this country.

TILE INFLUENZA.—Ten thousand persons are said
to be laid up with the grippe (influenza), at Lille, but
no case has terminated fatally. At Toulouse there are,
it is said, 15.000 persons, in a population of 55,000,
suffering from that malady.
