DEATH OF SIR JOHN LOWTHER, BART.—The de-

Lowther, Bart., Rector of Swillington, and Ann, his wife, a
descendant of the ancient family of the Zouches ; was born
in April, 1759, and had consequently just completed his 85th
year. On the 4th September, 1790, he married Lady Eliza.
beth Fane, second daughter of John, the ninth Earl of West-
moreland,by whom he had three sons and three daughters,
but one of the latter died an infant, and another in 1812. Sir
John was next brother to the late excellent Earl of Lons-
dale, whom he strongly resembled, both in features and per-
sonal disposition. his baronetcy dates from the year 1824.
The successor to his title and estates is his eldest son, John
Henry (born March 23, 1793), one of the Members for the
City of York—now, of course, Sir John Henry Lowther, Bart.
DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—A shocking accident oc-
curred at Blenheim Palace on Tuesday. News arrived in the
afternoon of the birth of a son by the Marchioness of Bland-
ford. Some cannon in the park were fired off in honour of
the event, when a young man named Henry Summer, who
was employed in discharging one of the guns, proceeded to
reload the same without unfortunately having cleaned it ;
having put in the charge, it ignited from some fire left in the
gun, at once exploded, and blew off both his hands. He was
as speedily as possible brought to the Radcliffe Infirmary, Ox
ford, where. ev,ery, attention is being paid him, but with very
slight hopes of his surviving many days. His age is 25, and
lie has a wife and two children.
