LIIPZUNX)Ii •VO. 9.

The melancholy intelligence of Mr. Catumates death reached this
town early this day, by the stage coaches, which brought copies of
the second editions published by the morning papers. The news
soon spread through the town, and gloom settled on every coun-
tenance. Never did the death of any public man cause such a sen-
sation among all classes of the inhabitants, as has the sudden disso-
lution of this distinguished Statesman. Here, his talents are known,
sod his virtue, appreciated ; and the regret for his untimely fate is
universaL The mail, en its arrival, in the evening, was surrounded
by snilous groups, and all the public rooms were crowded with
persons, eager to read the sad tidings of the death of the most popular
Manistee that ever wielded the destinies of England.

NgawiCV. •oa. 9.

The awful death of that great and good man, Canning, seems like
a dream. Norwich is filled with grief.

LIEDIN AVG R

The greatest agitation prevail; in this town, in conseeptence of the
melancholy account of Mr. Canning 's illness. If he dies, we feat
his admirable symest may ►e shaken, but I will not desponii.

/SON WE lace COMINT, ♦UGUST 10.

At a moment like the present, when death has levelled the hope.,
and blighted the glory of the Premier, all animosities, arising fro,'
political diterences, ought to be forgotten in sine universal enumok
id sympathy over the Frustrate energies of this highly gifted geum'•
As to his intellectual endowments, there can only be oneopwton
every man IMIW acknowledge that his talents were of the very fins
order, and we cannot contemphte the extinction of a mind so etc"'
with any other feelings than those of the sincerest regret.

111011 THE C•LIOOIIAX 31E1PCOZY OF ♦VGUET 9.

Every day teaches us impressive lessons of the preCarious and
evanescent tenure of worldly greatness, and the utter insigniticsort
of human ambition and human power. The proud Premier ut hop
land, the highly.gifted and popular Minister, with whose fortune'
the best interests of the civilised world had become, in some mea•
sure, identifik d, and to the stability of whose Government the liberal
and enlightened of all countries looked forward with anxious and
animating hope, has been struck with an alarming, and, we teas
mortal disease. A heavier misfortune than the death of Mr. Can•
ning at the present moment it is impossible for us to conceive; soil
it is with a corresponding intensity of emotion that we regard this
unexpected and &Meting visitstitm of Paonnzans.

THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF CLARENCE.

---..sp.—
PORTSMOUTH, Aviv': O.

Wednesday, as it was known the Duchess intended
pre-enting the 50th Regiment with their new colours,
and a grand review to take place afterwards, thousands
of people and carriages began to assemble at an early
Lour on Smith.ea Common to witness the ceremony.
Soon after 10 the Lord High Admiral and the Duchess
arrived on the ground, under a grand salute. The
Jay was remarkably fine, and we never witnessed
a more uncommon sight, namely, the Lord High
Admiral of England reviewing the troops on
Sauthsea Common, nay, close to the shore, and a
foreign fleet taking possession of the anchorage at
c iithead at the same moment (nine sail of the line and
eight frigates), both spectacles were in full view at the
s rme time ; and while we were contemplating the novelty
of such a remark dale coincidence, the unhappy mews of
that great Statesman, Mr. Canning, being no more,
was received by telegraph from London, and on the
Lord High Admiral being informed of the sad
event, he hastily concluded the Review and partook
of an elegant dejeune prepared for the occasion, with
the Officers of the 50th Regiment. T. ,e Duke and
Duchess honoured the Admiral with their company at
dinner. On Thursday morning, about eight o'clock,
the Duchess took her departure fit Bs ighto s, smiler a
Royal salute from the batteries and ships ; and the
Lord Higb Admiral embarked in grand state on board
his yacht, under a salute from all the ship., with their
yards manned, for the purpose of all iwing the Russian
Admirals the honour of being presented t•i hi_ Royal
Highness. The three Admirals, attended by their
Captains, arrived soon after nine o'clock, in their state
barges, and were presented to the Duke; after which ,
his Royal Highness proceeded in his yacht to Spithead, I
together with the Port Admiral and all the Captainr, to
inspect the Russian fleet, who had their yards ma.ined,
and looked remarkably well. His Roy .1 Highness was
saluted on leaving the Russian Admiral's shy, and we
are informed was much surprised to find her in such
pertect order, and the men in such good discipline.
The Lord High Admiral then proceeded to St.
Helen's, and was engaged on board the Warsp;te for al
considerable time, proving some new inve.iiion in,
naval gunnery ; and about five o'clock embarked again
on board his yacht, and took his departure frir L in don.
Diving his Royal Highness's stay at Portsmouth he
his been constantly employed from six in the morniog
until eight or nine at night, never off his legs; and the
leople of all classes look on what he has gone through
with wonder and amazement. The impression he has
left behind him on tire hearts and minds of the Navy
soil not readily be forgotten.
