At the Cape of Good Hope, Mr T. Sheridan. He has left a widow and several children, two of whom are now at the Cape, and we believe were born there. His convivial faculties were as popular at the Cape as those of his father were in England. He was the son of Richard Brinsley Sheridan by his first wife, the daughter of Mr Linley, and was the only child of that marriage. Thus, in little more than a year, have fallen three members of the same family, all well known to the world—the orator, the widow, and his son.

At London, Mr John Erek, in his 23d year, from loss of blood occasioned by the lancing of his gums.
