CALMS, SEPTEMBER 16.

HALF-PAST FIVE O'CLOCK IN Sur AFTERNOON.
We have just received the following Telegraphic
Dispatch, announcing the KING'S Death
7hc LING died this morning at Four o'clock. King
CIIARLE% X. immediately set out for St. Cloud, with the
Dauphin, the DAuphiness, and the Duchess de BERRI.

" The people have shewn, during the KING'S illness,
the most affecting sorrow. Couriers are setting out at
this moment in all directions with the news."
(Signed at Paris, &c. &e.)

It will be seen, by the Bulletins which we subjoin,,
that the KING had lingered fur some days in a state of
great sull'ering and debility ; so much so, indeed, that
the prayers for his recovery were superseded by those
for the dying, and the recommendation of the soul.
The Archbishop of PAnts had previously issued a man-
dament, ordering the prayers of Quarante Meares and
the Pro liege nostro ilfinno, in which he rather inaptly
invites the Ferrell to the hope that Coo may prolong
his days twenty-four years more, as he did those of HE-'
ZEKIAH, upon the pagers of the people. Lours
was never crowned, owing to the refusal of rope Pius
VII. to perform 'hit ceremony dorinz the life-time of
BONAPARTE ; and on the death of that entrant dinary
individual die health of the KING of FIiANCS: was not such
as to enable him to go tin oulll the ceremony. None or
these obstacles interpose to the coronation of his succes-
sot. CHARLES X. and it is probable that next summer
France may witness this splendid ceremony.
Louis XVIII. as we have already said, is succeeded
by his brother, CHARLES PHILIPPE Count d'Artois,
who is said to be popular with the Trench, and particu-
larly with the Army. His MAJESTY CHARLES X. is
nearly 67 years of age. The following are the other
Members of the House of Bourbon, of the male sex, in
the order of their succession to the French Throne.

i. Louis ANTOJNE, Duc d'Angouleme (now Dauphin), born
August 6, 1775.

9. HENRY, Duc de llourdeaux, son of the Duc de BISILRI, born
Sept. £9, 1820.
3. Louts Pnwerr, Due d'Orlsrans, born Oct. 6, 1773, who mar.
tied blaFia Amelia, daughter of the King of Sims-, by whom he
bas male issue—

4. FitBDINAND, Duc de Chartres, born Sept. 3, 1910.
5. Louts CIIARLIS, Due de Nemoens, born Oct. 2.5, 1814.
6. FaAMCIS FERDINAND, Due de Joioville, born Aug. 14,1818.
7. Osamu, FERDINAND, Duc de Penthievre, born Jan. 1, 1820;
and 8. Maar Eumenz, Due dc Aumale, born June 16, 1822.

Of that illustrious branch of the BowsßaNs, the
House of CONDE, there is but one individual remaining,
LOWS HENRY JOSEPH, Duc de Bourbon, bcirn April
13, 1756, who is the ninth in the succession to the
French Crown. Of this Prince, who was the father of
the Duc d'ErionEtw, an anecdote is related, which
skews a trait of singular delicacy. On the death of his
father, the Prince of CONDE, the title fell on the Duc
de BounuoN, but as he has no family, he refused to as-
sume it, saying, " I am not worthy to be the last of
the CONDEs."

As the death of Levis XVIII. has been so recent, the
only intelligence that could reach us of that event, is
the telegraphic dispatch; we subjoin the Bulletins pre-
viously issued, which shew the progress of his disorder :

EIGHTH BULLETIN OF TfIR KNaIfILLNEia
" Twno'clock in'thi afternoon.
u His Majesty experienced a stronger fainting.en at one o'clock;
the.hreathing is beceme,morp Ontol and interrupted; the pulse is
extremely weak and intermittent.
" The prayers for the Dying, and the Recommendation of the

Soul, have been recited in the chamber of the King, in the presence
of his family. His Majesty heard them with perfect consciousness."
(Signed as before).

At two o'clock the King was plunged in so profound
a lethargy, that the most intense anxiety was spread
throughout the Palace and the crowd assembled in the
Place du Carousel ; but at half past three o'clock the
King recovered from his lethargy, and was perfectly
sensible.
