• Among the rumours with regard to the appoint-
ment of Governer..General for India are two, which
have_ reached Us from such a quarter as we conceive
entitles them to notice. The first is, that Lord WIL-
LIAM BENTINCK has been named to that high ofiiee.
Lord WILLIAM BENTINCK is connected with Mr.
CANNING through his brother the Duke of PonTLA Nu,
who married the elder Miss Scrim, as that Right
Hon. Gentleman did the younger. Lord WILLIAM
BENTINCK has been distinguished, as a soldier, fiic
cool and consummate intrepidity. As a man, both
in public and private life, hii Lordship is considered
to be of a direct and upright character. The subject
of the second report is Lord AMHERST, an ex.ambas-
sador to China, and since a Lord of the Bedchamber.
Between the two, however, the balance is said to in-
cline to Lord WILLtAx BENTINCK; but we have some
doubts of his accepting the appointment, as the state
of his health is such as to render a residence in the
East Indies a very hazardous experiment.
The Duke of MANCHESTER is expected to sail on
the 25th inst. in the ACTIVE frigate, for Jamaica. It
is understood that his Excellency is anxious to reach
the seat of his Government previous to the meeting
of the House of Assembly, as he has to propose (on
the suggestion of Government), that the troops em-
ployed for the defence and preservation of the island
shall be in future paid out of its revenuls, and not by
the Government. If this reasonable proposition ionid
be carried into effect in all our Colonies, the country
would be relieved from a heavy burden at the present
moment. Mr. HUME (it may be recollected)'has
promised to submit it to Parliament early in the
next Session.

The Duke of Sussex, while on a visit at Cantley,
the scat of M. A. TAYLOR, Esq. received an Address
from the Corporation of Doncaster, and the Freedom
of the Corporation. On Tuesday last the Deputa-
tion, consisting of the Mayor, EDWARD Cookin,
Esq. GEORGE WALKER and JOHN PEARsoN, Mgrs.
two of the Magistrates of the Borough, ll'lLLime
HAIGH, JOHN SHEPHERD, and JAMES FALCONER,
Esqrs. three of the senior Common Council, in their
robes, attended by the mace-bearer and two serjeants
at mace, arrived at Cantley about 12 o'clock. The
freedom of the Borough was presented with a meat
gold box of the value of fifty guineas.
The ground latery occupied at Privy-gardens by
the mansion of the Duke of RICHMOND, being totally
clear, a terrace on a very grand scale is forming ; tt
will be somewhat similar to Whitehall-place.
