A monument has been erected over his remains at Jubbulpoor, by his brother officers, to mark the high estimation in which he was held during the ten years he had been Adjutant of their regiment.

WEST INDIES.-June 26. At Bybrook, Jamaica, Mrs. Letitia Cox. By her own account she was a grown-up young woman at the time of the destruction of Port Royal by an earthquake, and must therefore have been upwards of 160 years

of age. She declared she never drank anything but water during her whole life. -An old black woman, at Holland estate, died 18 months ago, 140 years old. She also declared she never drank anything but water.

He was twice wounded in action; first, when serving as midshipman on board the Mars 74, at the capture of the Hercule, April 21, 1798; and again, when Lieutenant of the Bellona 74, at the battle of Copenhagen, April 2, 1801.

Drowned by the swamping of a boat, with Capt. Blenkinsopp and two men, Sir John William Jeffcott, the judge of the new colony of South Australia. He was a M.A. of Trinity College, Dublin; was called to the bar at the Middle Temple, Feb. 10, 1826; and knighted May 1, 1833, on being appointed Chief Justice at Sierra Leone. Just before his departure from England, his name was brought before the public in a melancholy way, having been challenged to a duel by Dr. Hennis, of Exeter, who fell in the contest; and it is remarkable that the news of Sir John Jeffcott's death arrived in that city on the 18th May, the anniversary of that of Dr. Hennis.

Aug. 14. At New York, Mr. Lewer, the publisher of the American edition of the English Magazines and Reviews. He was one of the original proprietors of the London Athenæum, and we believe of the Sphinx newspaper and the Orien

tal Magazine. During his residence in America, he has been employed in the re-publication of the English Magazines, and had reduced that business, with the aid of steam-presses and steam-navigation, to so well-ordered a system, that the public have received these periodicals within a month of their original appearance in Great Britain.
