OBITUARY.

THE DUKE D'ANGOULEME. June 3. At Goritz, in Austria, aged 68, Louis Antoine Duc d' Angoulême.

He was born Aug. 6, 1775, the elder of the two sons of Charles Philippe Comte d'Artois, afterwards Charles X., by Maria-Theresa, daughter of Victor III. King of Sardinia.

The youthful Dauphin, Louis XVII., having, as it is tolerably well ascertained, perished in the dungeon wherein the ruffians of the revolutionary government had immured him, and the Salique law prohibiting the descent of the crown to the Princess Royal of France, she was united on the 10th June, 1799, to the Duc d'Angoulême. Louis XVIII. ascended the throne on the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty, in the year 1814; and dying without issue in 1824, the succession devolved upon the Comte d'Artois, who reigned as Charles X. In 182he was placed at the head of the army which made a demonstration, rather than a campaign, in Spain. His exploits, however, were the subjects both of the French painters and sculptors of that period.

The events of 1830 are too well known to require even a cursory notice. An unsuccessful attempt was made on the third of the "great days of July," by M. Jacques Laffitte, and the leading members of the newly-elected Chamber of Deputies, to induce a withdrawal of the obnoxious ordinances which had been issued by the ministry of the Prince de Polignac. The government hesitated, and when their misguided sovereign became willing to accede to the proposal of the deputies, M. Laffitte declared that it was then too late. Ultimately Charles X. signed an abdication at Rambouillet, and his son the Duc d'Angoulême resigned his right of succession in favour of his young nephew, the Duc de Bordeaux, whose father, the Duc de Berri, was assassinated in 1820.

The Duc d'Angoulême seems to have been a harmless character, of no marked talent, and of no decided propensities. During the government of Charles X. he was content with doing what he was bid -at the revolution of 1830 he was content with doing nothing-and during the exile of his house he was content with being nothing. In private life he appears to have been an amiable man.

When he perceived his death approaching, he sent to the archives of the War Department at Paris an important work which he had got executed during the

Restoration, giving, in folio, plans, drawings and full descriptions of all the fortified places in France, showing their weak points, the best modes of attacking them, and the proper manner of defence.

The cause of his death was a cancer in the pylorus. On the 8th of June bis funeral was celebrated in the cathedral of Goritz, and thence proceeded to the chapel of the Franciscan convent, situated on a height at the west of the town. The Duc de Bordeaux followed the car on foot, in a mourning cloak. Count de Montbel, Viscount de Champagny, and the Duke de Blacas, also in mourning cloaks, walked behind the Duke; next came the French now at Goritz, the authorities, and the inhabitants. The body was placed in the vault where the mortal remains of Charles X. rest.

JOSEPH BONAPARTE.

July 28. At Florence, aged 76, Joseph Bonaparte, Count de Survilliers, the elder brother of Napoleon, and formerly King of Naples and King of Spain.

He was born in 1768, at Corte, in the island of Corsica ; and attended his brother in his first campaign of Italy in 1796. Having been appointed a member of the legislative body, he was distinguished for his moderation and good sense, and gave proofs of generous firmness, when he undertook to defend General Bonaparte, then in Egypt, against the accusations of the Directory. Under the Consulate he was member of the Council of State and one of the witnesses to the treaty of Luneville. On the accession of Napoleon to the empire the crown of Lombardy was offered to and refused by him. A few days after the battle of Austerlitz he assumed the command of the army destined to invade the kingdom of Naples, penetrated without striking a blow to Capua, and, on the 15th of February, 1806, he made his entrance into Naples, of which kingdom the Emperor appointed him Sovereign. The government of Joseph as King of Naples, though short, was not sterile. In the space of less than two years he drove the English from the kingdom, reorganised the army and navy, and completed many public works. In 1808 he proceeded to occupy the throne of Spain; which he abandoned after the battle of Vittoria. On his return to France he took the command of Paris, and, faithful to the orders of the Emperor, he accompanied the Empress regent to Chartres, and subsequently to

Blois, after the invasion of the Allies, and assembled around her all the disposable troops. After the abdication of Fontainebleau, Prince Joseph Napoleon was obliged to withdraw to Switzerland. He returned to France in 1815, the same day the Emperor arrived at Paris. After the battle of Waterloo he embarked for America, where his brother, whom he was never more to see, appointed to meet him. In 1817 the State of Jersey, and in 1825 the legislature of the State of New York, authorised him to possess lands without becoming an American citizen.

The Count de Survilliers did not return to Europe until 1832. He then came to England, where he resided several years. A painful malady, which required a milder climate, obliged him to demand permission of the foreign powers to fix his residence at Florence, where he breathed his last. He was attended on his dying bed by his brothers, Louis and Jerome. There remain of the Emperor's brothers but the two latter princes-Louis, formerly King of Holland; and Jerome, formerly King of Westphalia.

LORD HUNTINGFIELD.

Aug. 10. At Heveningham-hall, Suffolk, aged 66, the Right Hon. Joshua Vanneck, Baron Huntingfield, of Heveningham-hall, in the Peerage of Ireland (1796,) and a Baronet of England (1751.)

He was the eldest son of Joshua first Lord Huntingfield, by Maria, second daughter of Andrew Thomson, esq. of Roehampton.

He was born on the 12th of August, 1778, and at his death was within two days completing his 66th year. He succeeded his father on the 15th Aug. 1816. He was twice married, namely, first, 2nd April, 1810, to Frances Catharine, eldest daughter of Chaloner Arcedeckne, esq. of Glevering ball, Suffolk, who died in 1815; and secondly, 6th January, 1817, to Lucy-Anne, third daughter of Sir Charles Blois, Bart., who survives his lordship. He leaves an only daughter by the first marriage, the Hon. Mrs. Rowley, wife of Captain Robert Charles Rowley; and an only son by the second lady, namely, the Hon. Charles Andrew Vanneck, now Lord Huntingfield, who was born the 12th Jan. 1818, and married on the 6th of July, 1839, Miss Louisa Arcedeckne, only daughter of Andrew Arcedeckne, esq. and has issue. There was another son by the first mairiage, the Hon. Joshua Vanneck, who died in 1833, in his 22nd year.

HON. JAMES ERSKINE MURRAY.
