DEATH OF Tux DUIK DORIEANs.--Thisi is strange
world truly One day all his JOY and the next is full
OF sadness.
Last Friday the csnnons Of " La Conner" pealed
forth in celebration Of the trois jour which made the
Duke dOrleans heir to the crown of France and
yesterday, in less than twentyfour hours AFTER the
same heavy cannon sent forth its thunder in minute
claps for the death of the same.
All the vessels Of war in harbor, the merchant
ships in port, and the several castles on the island,
displayed the tri.color flag at half mast on learning
the melancholy intelligence. The Great Western
came into port with the tri-color also at half mast
A general gloom Immediately pcrvaded the French
portion of the city, which rapidly spread, the mi
mute guns from " La Conner" echoed and re-echoed
the sad intelligence.
The death of the Duke is the greatest, the Sc
verest catastrophe that could happen TO France.
His eldest son, now, however, quite young, has be-
heir apparent by this accident, and the worst
fears are entertained for the Egahx family after
the departure Of Louis Philippe from this world.
We must wait and see.
