MR. IPINDI,I3L

We are deeply concerned at the necessity of
forming our Readers that this Gentleman expired ti,L
morning. The melancholy et ent took, place at ex"
a&ly 25 minutes after It. He bore his - illness
throughout with that fortitude which might be ex-
peeled from the manliness of his charaaer, and to the
last moment, when -he was colleCted enough or suf.
‘ficiently free .from pain, to &liver his sentiments?.

his feelings were strongly dire&ed, 'like those of gr'

PITT, to the welfare of his country.
During the latter part of Mr. WINDHAM'S life we
had the misfortune of not agreeing with his political
opinions; but of the purity and sincerity of then:o.-
ties by which he was
.aiinated, no man who had
the slightest knowledge Of his character could Fos'
sibly entertain a doubt. His knoWledge of the Con"
stitution was profound, and he was alwaysamong
the foremost of its defeAdeysegainst the cpen or
sidious attacks of its enemies.
I\ir. WiNnnAm was a sound scholar ; like 51r'
BUR HE, his reading was, deep and Miscellanecio'
Like Mr. BURI(2, too, he was often inclined 10
draw his illustrations from objeets, perhaps, of to;,
coarse and familiar a nature for the dignity of
r Senate,. and the attention-of the Empire. Rot hts
eloquence .was rich, powerful, impressive,
and conclusive, though- perhaps it was at ',.rnes tac
subtle and refined. In private life he was a. truly
honourable and manly charact,:..r, and he possessed
talents and acquirements that
,qualified him c°
make a distinguished figure at any period'
history ha's 'recorded.' He _was mairied about
teen years ago to Miss Fottansrct, of Binfiel(l,.s
lady of small fortune, but of a most amiable cha'
racter, and with a mind congenial in kriowledge and
attainments with his own, " Nothing could be more
happy and harmonious than his domestic life
and, therefore, it may naturally be conceived'
that the loss of such a man must be deeply atie6ting•

That. he is a great lois to ihe Country evt.ry holt
• ,
must acknowledge who know • Low co estinTite real

public virtue, high 'talents, various and extensikr°
knowledge, and unimpeachable integrity.
Mr. WINDHAM, we_ are assured, bad a Strong
presentiment that his death would happen on
• vary day. He declared this opinion, itomedialelY
after the operation was performed, and repeated
again yesterday, observing to his medical attendants,
that that was the last time he' shoo d trouble thealt

33 he should certainly die the next day. He was ill
the 62d )elt- of his age.

The birth-day of Mr.' Pi rir was celebrated o!la
Monday last at Shrtleld, in a manner that do'
honour to. the town, as well- as- to the illostrt: o-a
Statesman wk.% memory so property demaPO:
this testimony to his .watch., A considerable nun'.
ber of he most respeaable inhabitants of the-
esteemed for their character and the soundness °
their printiplesi assembled at Angel-Inn, the Rev 1
STUART COREBTT took the Chair, and made a very,
impressive,and appropr;:t.: speech on the occasion'
the usual loyal and con sti. io nal toasts were give 1,
as well as " tie friends and admirers of Mr. P 11;
Troughout• the. Enlpire'," aud many conspicio
characters of the day, Two songs, written by Ml.'
Jackson on the occasion, were warmly applaud"!
and the dty altogether may ha considered at the tiv
innph of true patriotism and genuine good huuotr.
The Parks were, yesterday, crowded with beatl,l
and fash;on.

SELLIS.—It is the busin-ss of the Marshalmen tc
ael under Coroner for the Verge of the Court
in cases of Inquest, and in consequence of the Vert:
diCl of Febo de se against Sellis, the eight Marsha'
men assembled in the neighbourhood of the Pa 1361
on SAturday night, to bury the body in a cross roa,,,
lid
according to lass', aid it was generally underst°°
that the body was to have been butied at Charill,,,
%
Cross at midnight. The curiosity of some peePla,
.was SD great, that they a&ually waited in the Yst
till three o'clock yes.'erday morning. The hodlst
however, was not taken away then, but from wil°
cou,e, we could nor learn. It was not taken al
tall about ten ,o'clock yesterday, when a hearse dray.
up close to the Sutiling House," and immediatells
after four men brought the body out of the Duke,
house in a shell, pm, it in the hearse, and it dro"
furiously away with it. A number of persons 11
, al er the hearse, but were not able to keep up wit
t. The ;lice of interment is therefore unknown. • '
•
On Friday morning Mr. PtYDER, the Secretary of
State, called upon Mrs. SELcts, the widoW of the de'
ceased, at her apartments in St. James's Palace, and f
asked her a few questions respeaing the condut
her deceased husband. He behaved extremely kin.
and humane to her; he would not allow her to be
put to any inconvenience, but went to her in the
room-where she was.
