give Sheridan and others, who had attacked him with their wit; and that he ought not to forgive those who had advised him to plunge the nation into a war, in which its glory and wealth must be funk for ever. He fpoke these words with remarkable emphafis. And they were the last he ever uttered, except fomething which could not be understood about one Watt. He then gave a fhriek, and died with his nails fixed in the bed-clothes. [Thus far we had written from the dictation of the learned Phyfician, when, lo! we awoke, and found it was but a dream.] DISSECTION OF MR. PITT. [From the Telegraph.] WE have already given our readers fome account of this great man's death, together with the conjectures that were formed refpecting the cause of it. We have now to add fome extracts from the report of the Surgeon who opened his body. The entire report would occupy too much room, and would be tedious to many of our readers. After making fome remarks on the outward appearance of the body, which was entirely covered with fpots, the furgeon proceeds to give a minute defcription of the internal parts, beginning with the cavity of the head. On fawing through the cranium, the first thing that ftruck an obferver, was a remarkable accumulation of the brain on the left fide of the skull, while the cavity on the right fide was almoft empty. The whole organ feemed to have an involuntary tendency to prefs in that direction; infonuch that, when it was put in its proper fituation, it acted with the force of a spring, and recovered its former place immediately after the hand was taken taken away. So remarkable a deviation the reporter had never seen, except in one fubject diffected a great many years ago at Surgeons' Hall. It was a fellow who was hanged at Tyburn, and had fo conftant and uniform a bias towards every thing that was wrong, as nothing but an unlucky formation of the brain could account for. The tongue was cut out at the request of the Lord Chancellor, who wished to preferve it in fpirits. It is uncommonly smooth and soft at the point, but full of purulent pimples towards the root. But what dif tinguishes it moft from other tongues is, that it is quite hollow; and, in fhort, the moft deceiving tongue, in all refpects, that ever came under the operator's knife. Round the neck there was a fort of depreffed mark, or groove, as if it had been occafioned by a rope. The furgeon had feen the like before; but never knew an inftance till now of a perfon fo marked efcaping a halter. On opening the thorax, the lungs were found totally found; but the appearance of the heart was fo remarkable, as to deferve a particular defcription. The pericardium, or membrane in which the heart is enclofed, was much diftended; but what is moft fingular is, that the liquid which it contained was frozen into a folid lump. No application of heat could diffolve it; but by pouring a large quantity of wine upon it, and afterwards touching it with gold, it became fufficiently foft to get out the heart itfelf; which at firft view appeared as large as that of a bullock; but, on the leaft preffure, was reduced to the fize of a turkey-cock's. A Ruffian furgeon, who was prefent, faid he always expected it would be found fo. The heart was extremely cold to the touch, and very hard; yet it exfuded abundance of moisture, which bliftered and fwelled the fingers like the moft violent and rancorous poifon. The infide was perfectly black, and confifted of a fort of powder, which emitted an exceedingly fetid fmell. When this powder was narrowly infpected, with the aid of a microscope, a great many fmall fhining objects were vifible, fhaped like fwords, daggers, and bayonets. They moved with great rapidity, and exhibited a threatening appearance; but they were found to be quite pointlefs. The liver was perfectly white, except where it was ftudded with purple eruptions. The gall-bladder was of an uncommon fize, and overflowing with a fuperabundance of dark-coloured bile. The whole courfe of the inteftines was lined with a red tough coat, exactly refembling that which is formed by Port wine, after remaining long in the pipe. The delicacy neceffary to be obferved in a public print does not permit us to enter minutely into the remaining part of the report. Suffice it to fay, that the marks of fexual diftinction in this cafe were not eafily to be difcerned. YE FUNERAL OF MR. PITT. [From the Telegraph.] ESTERDAY the remains of the late Prime Minifter were interred, with fuitable folemnity, in the churchyard of St. Giles in the Fields. The order of the proceffion was as follows: Sir WATKIN LEWES, on horfeback; The other City Members, abreast. BROOK WATSON *, In * A gentleman nearly connected with a family refident at Hallifax, in Nova Scotia, affirms, that Mr. Brook Watfon lived as foot-boy in that family, of which the name is PROCTOR. It is highly honourable to him, that he does not on all occafions forget his humble origin. When In a fplendid carriage, Drawn by 200 Merchants ruined by the war.

If," anfwered his Lordship, you ferved under me on the Continent, you must know that it is impaffible for me to decide contrary to propriety and juftice." C 3 66 it: it was declined, on this ground, that, in a folemn proceffion, it would not be proper to afford the populace any occafion for laughter. The Members of the Cabinet were engaged in difpofing of the vacant places, which prevented them from attending round the corpfe; but we are happy to state, that their deputies from Bow Street filled their places very refpectably! It is with grief that we advert to the behaviour of the mob on this occafion. Neither refpect for the memory of the deceased, nor hunger itself (which appeared in most of their countenances), could reftrain their levity from breaking out into shouts of laughter and indecent merriment. A monument, we understand, is to be erected, at the public expenfe, to perpetuate this Great Man's memory. The fculpture is to be in alto relievo, and will reprefent, on one fide, the Premier furprising the Goddefs of British Liberty asleep, and ftriking off her head with a fabre. In the back ground is a prospect of Botany Bay. Another fide exhibits the taking of Dunkirk by the British troops, and the glorious landing of the emigrants at Quiberon. The third reprefents the city of Paris in ruins; the Batlle rebuilding, under the direction of Mr. Burke, and the immaculate Minister hoifting the white flag. On the fourth fide, the Genius of War will be fhewn in all his majesty, attended by Defolation, Murder, and Famine. Peace is feen, flying from the British coaft, and conducting Commerce and Plenty to the fhores of America. The epitaph is as follows: Hic conduntur reliquiæ GUL. PITT, ARMIG.
