INTERESTING ANECDOTE OF SIR S. RONIILLY.

The following anecdote of this most revered and
lamented man has come to us from a very respect-
able quarter. We give it publicity with the more
pleasure, that it not only tends to illustrate
the mournful circumstances of his death, but
casts au affecting and ennobling light on the mo-
ral excellencies of his character. it will, pet haps,
be asked, what anecdote of his life would not tend
to make his memory more esteemed, and his loss
more regretted He commenced his career at the
Bar, a young man, liberally educated, with those
high principles of honour, and that susceptibility

and, still more, with both his parents dependent
upon his professional success. In this situa-
tion, he became acquainted with a young lady,
the charms of whose mind and person won 1i is
affections. His conduct was worthy of his head
and his heart. He declared his sentiments to the
object of his affections ; but added, that he must
" acquire two fortunes" before they could be
married: the first for those to whutn owed

The Paris Papers of Sunday last, which were

A letter received from an Officer of the ship
CObalva, passenger in the ship flas,tings, arrived

of the cargo of the Ceibalca will be saved if the
weather should be moderate. The crew (with the
exception of those mentioned in a former account)

The Gazette of last night contains the PRINCE
REGENT'S Order in Council for the further proro-
gation of Parliament from the 12th inst. to the
29th December.

The Incendiaries of FACTION, in consequence
of the unfortunate death of Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY,
have already begun their operations, and hope to
