THE LATE SUICIDE OF MR. GEORGE ELLIS INMAN. —This gentleman, who suddenly put a p,riod to his existence on Saturday night last, in St. James's Pa, k, had b2en for some time a contributor to various periodicals, be_ sides being the author of several popular ballads. For the last year he had been occasionally subject to fits of mental suffering and excitement, induced by over study and physical stimulant, the latter only to a very moderate extent. lie repeatedly declared to his friends that he did not know what was the matter with him, but that for some months he had found he possessed no control over his actions, and that he thought he should destroy himself. For six weeks previous to this fatal act he had begin in the habit of taking opium, and fur four days before Saturday had been wandering about the streets of London and the suburbs of Gravesend, Greenwich, &c , and absenting himself from his place of busistess, without any ostensible object or motive. Almost the last money in his possession was spent in the purchase of the pistol, &c., with which he destroyed himself. His friends had intended to send him fora few weeks into the country, fresh air and quietness being really all that was needed to restore his health. To this unfortunate young man, in 1837, a medal was awarded by the Melodists' Club for the words of a song entitled " The dais of yore," which were set to music by John Parry„ jun., and gained the prize of the value of ten guineas in 1838. Mr. Inman was also the writer of the National song, " St. George's flag of England," composed by Mr. Blcwett, to whom the same club awarded its prize of fifteen guineas on the 25th of June last. Mr. Inman also wrote the song, " Sweet Mary mine" (composed by J. Parry, jun ), which Madame' Stockhausen and Miss Birch rendered so popular last season, by their singing of it at numerous concerts.
