DEATHS ABROAD. At Buenos A res, Lieutenant Colonel Kington, of the 6th regiment of Dragoons. This officer, having advanced a considerable way into the town of Buenos Ayres, on the morning of the 5th of July, received a musketball through his right leg, which occasioned him to fall, whilst cheering and animating his regiment to follow him, and endeavouring to take two pieces of cannon opposed to them in the centre of the street. Refusing any assistance from his men to carry him off, he desired they would march for ward, and do their duty under the brave and much lamented Captain Burrell, who received a mortal wound. In the mean time, the Colonel contrived to remove from the centre into one of the cross streets, and there remained till the Carabineers had been ordered to retreat, when the enemy advanced, and used him in a most brutal manner. They were upon the point of dispatching him with their bayonets, had not an old Spaniard rushed from his house, and, throwing his cloak over the Colonel, and his person between him and his countrymen, beseeched them to spare his life, and not take advantage of a fallen fee. The old man then dragged him into his house, and, having bound up his wound, laid him on his own bed, and watched hin during the day and night with the tenderness of a parent: he had him conveyed, on the 6th, to the citadel, where General Liniers or dered every possible atten ion to be paid to his wounded prisoner. The General told the Colonel, a relation of his Mrs. O'Gormon) had offered to accommodate one of the wounded of ficers at her own house, and requested he would be removed to her dwelling, where he would have every possible care taken of his wound. In this hospitable mansion the Colonel lay seventeen days before his dissolution, receiving from the hands of his kind hostess and her relations, all kinds of nourishment and medicine directed by the faculty. General Liniers at tended him daily, and visited him always before he retired to rest. He shewed as much interest for the CoJonel's safety as he could have done for his own son in a similar situation. The old Spaniard was constant in his enquiries for the safety of the Colonel's wound; and, though pressed by him to receive a sum of money for his great humanity and tenderness, he could not be prevailed upon to accept the least pecuniary reward, yet by no means in affluent circumstances. General Liniers' generous behaviout continued after the Colonel's decease, on the 22d of July. He directed the body to be removed to the Viceroy's palace, and there to lie in state till the interment. The funeral was conducted after the English manner: General Liniers and all the principal military officers and civil magistrates attended, with four regiments of Infantry to fire over the grave. A tablet, with a suitable inscription, was ordered by the General to be placed over the remains of the deceased. To hear that this gallant young hero, cut off in the prime of life, received such marked attention, and experienced every comfort from his enemies, in his last moments, must be highly gratifying to his afflicted widow, the Marchioness of Clauricarde, his relations, and numerous friends. And should another expedition to South America prove more fortunate than the last, his hiave countrymen may have an opportunity of convincing the enemy they are not to be outdone in generosity and humanity, the grand characteristic of the British nation. Suddenly, CHRISTIAN VII. KING of DENMARK. He was born on the 29th of January, 1749. In the year 1766, he was married to the Princess Carolina Matilda, sister of our mo par h. The unfortunate history of that princess, owing, it is generally sup posed, to the enmity of her step-mo ther, has long been a subject of regret in this country. The late King of Denmark came to England in the year 1767, and was received with every possible demonstration of respect by all ranks of people. Soon after his return to Denmark, his faculties, which were never bright, sunk into a decay, which wholly unfitted him for the duties of his situation, and his kingdom has ever since been governed under his name, without the least chance that he would be able to resume his royal functions.

HE wheats, and spring crops of every description, look well, and are in want of nothing but warm and seasonable weather, with genial showers. The spring Sowing is in general finished, and the seed got in after the best possible manner; the lands working as kindly as has ever been known. The fallows are in excellent order. The scarcity of cattle-food has been severely felt during this extreme cold and backward spring; and, unless a great change take place very soon, the relief from grass will be late indeed. Accounts from the North, and from Scotland, are distressing; the snow, in many parts, lies deep upon the ground, and cattle-food so scarce, and the stocks of cattle so large, that the consequences may be most serious. The northern farmers and graziers, who have taken farms at the late enormous repta, from four to seven and eight pounds per acre, must certainly be, under the presené circumstances of the times, in a most critical situation. Accounts continue extremely favourable of the thousand-headed cabbage, the seed of which is sold by Gibbs, Piccadilly. It has been of infinite service, where cultivated, during this distressing season; and, as it resists the frosts, will doubtless succeed in the climate of Scotland. In Norfolk, it has produced heads of great weight, and a yard in diameter.-It gives several crops. All sorts of cattle and pigs are in great abundance, throughout the island; and keep being so scarce, the price is declining; but probably fat stock may be scarce in the summer, from the backwardness of the grass. In some of the northern counties, lean stock are cheaper than has been known for years.
