THE CANNING FAMILY.

from ne CORK o0RNefn hefoTEeTJ
The family of Canning. from which the
present eminent and justly popular Prime
Minister springs, is of great antiquity.
The head the family was Roman Cath
oic gentleman. Francis Canning Esq, Of
Foxcote, in Warwick shire, the twelfth pos
SCISSOR of that estate, in lincal male descent
from Thomas Canning Esq. who, in the
reign of Henry VI, married Agnes, sole
heiress of lie Marshal, of Foxcotc, seated
there, from the time of Edward l.
The branch from which the premier de-
rives his origin was founded by George Can
ming, younger son of Richard Canning, of
Foxcote, who settled in Ireland. and obtain
ed grant Of the manor of Garvah. in the
county of Londonderry, from Queen Eliza
beth. From him descended Stratford Can
ning, Esq the fifth possessor of the Garvah
estate, who derived his Christian name from
the surname Of his mothcr's family, the
Stratfords, Earls of Aidborough; his eldest
son, George Canning, died in his fathers
lifetime leaving an only son, the Right Hon
orabie George Canning, who, though repre-
sentative OF tic elder branch OF the Garvah
family, was passed by in the will of his grand
father. who left the estate TO his second soi
Paul Canning, ESQ whose only son, George
Canning was created Baron GArvah in 1878.
The premier, however, succeeded to
small estate in the county of Kilkenny, OF
about $500 per annum, either by bequest,
or in consequence of the entail net being
broken. On this slender beginning he has
finally achieved his present proud pre- emi-
nence.

papers alluded to in our last, we have found
few interesting articles relating to that

Another revolutionary movement took
place at Santiago, in Chill, short time since.
in an attempt of the military, headed by
that restless and dangerous man CAMPING,
to dissolve the sitting Of the Sovereign Con
gress and to abolish the Eatanco. For this
purpose the troops were formed in front of
the Congress Hall, and some muskets were
discharged, but without effect, and the Con
gress merely suspended its sitting. in the
meanwhile, CAMPING took possession OF the
Government House, imprisoned the Secreta-
ry of Foreign Relations and the Chief Of the
E.stanco, and proclaimed himself President
of the Republic. Negotiations then COM
mcncca between him and the Congress, but
before coming to any conclusion, the troops
deserted him, and he and his principal ad-
herents were thrown into prison. 1t is thus
that the rcpose of Chill is continually dis
turbed by the different factions that alter
nately distract her Councils, and hold in
check any considerable improvement in her
institutions.
