The Governor-General o Canada.—We regret to learn that the latest adviees from Canada give a most unfavourable account of the state of Lord Metcalfe's health. Indeed we have seen a private letter, from a gentleman whose official duties give him daily opportunities for observation, which represents the distinguished person in question as so worn down by suffering as to make it utterly impossible that human nature can much longer bear up, unless the cruel disease (cancer of the face) to which he has so long been a martyr should take a most unexpected change. Lord Metcalfe had, up to the last possible moment, persevered in his personal attention to the duties of his important office; but on the day on which the letter to which we have alluded was written, he was for the first time unable to bear the pain and fatigue of removal to the council-room, and the indispensable business was necessarily transacted in his absence. —Britannia.
