MR. CANNING'S HEALTH.

(From the Court Circular.)
The illness of the Right Hon. Gentleman,
we regret to say,- has been gradually increasing
since Tuesday till Friday, when it became seri-
ous ; on which day, a King's Messenger was
despatched to Mr. Planta, at his seat at Fair-
born, near. Hastings, who immediately came to
town, and thence proceeded to Chiswick. Se-
veral Medical Gentlemen were called in to attend
a consultation, four of whom remained all night
at Chiswick.

During Saturday, frequent communications
were sent to. His Majesty at the Royal Lodge,
to the Lord Chancellor, and all the Cabinet Mi-
nisters. On Saturday evening the symptoms
became alarming; six medical gentlemen re-
mained in attendance all night. The Right
Hon. Gentleman, however, was a little better
yesterday morning, when the following bulletin
mcas issued :
" We regret to state, tl-,.tt Mr. Canning is suffering un-
der a very severe attack of inflammation. He has passed
the last night with lees pain, and the urgency of the symp-
toms is at this moment somewhat diminished.

" M. J. TIERNEY.
" J. R. FARRE.
" H. HOLLAND.
" Chiswick, Sunday morning, Aug. 5."
Copies of the above 'bulletin were forwarded
to the King and all the Cabinet Ministers.
The medical gentlemen had another consulta-
tion yesterday at two o'clock, the result of which
was also forwarded to his Majesty and the
Ministers.

The Right Hon. Gentleman has undergone
the operation of cupping several times since his
indisposition..
The Duke of Gloucester, Prince Esterhazy,
most of the Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers,
the Marquis of Anglesea, the Earl of Harrowby,
Mr. Rothschild, &c. were among the numerous
inquirers on Saturday and yesterday, at the resi-
dence of the Right Hon. Gentleman in Down-
ing-street.
Yesterday Mr. Wynn transacted business with
Viscount Goderich.

In consequence of a serious change in the
state of Mr., Canning, the medical gentlemen
held another`' consultation about seven o'clock
yesterday evening, after which they issued the
following alarming bulletin, circulars of which,
with additional particulars, were sent round to
the Cabinet Ministers, six of whom are in
town t--
" We lament to state, that the symptoms of Mr. Can-
ning's disease have become so, much worse since the morn-
ing, that we consider his life to be in imminent danger.
" M. J. TIERNEY.
" J. R. FARRE.
" H. HOLLAND.
"Chiswick, Sunday, August 5, 8 o'clock, p.m."

THE CANDIDATES FOR THE CITY.—Mr.
Lawson, with a diffidence in speaking of his own merits
that will not render him the less acceptable to the freemen,
has declared, that if elected, he will conscientiously per-
form the duties of their representation as well as lie is able.
The only question for the citizens should be, is he or Is he
not a man whom they do "esteem and trust?"' They
have, for the most part already answered the question in
the affirmative. Mr. Atherley, who was last week men-
tioned, declines the thought of any contest under these cir-
cumstances. Mr. James Brougham, M. P. has arrived in
t"vn. The elder Brougham is coming. The freemen are,
in the highest spirits. They look upon the battle as al-
"a(13.- won. As our old friend, Dr. Jackion, who for
nearly half
gatherer a century proposed the Blue candidate, is now
will be to his fathers, we understand that Mr. Lawson
boasty most dir. Brougham, whom Care has. to
