OBITUARY.

THE KING OF HANOVER. Nov. 18. At his palace of Herrenhausen, in his 81st year, His Majesty Ernest-Augustus, King of Hanover, Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, and Earl of Armagh; Sovereign of the Hanoverian order of the Guelphs, Knight of the orders of the Garter, St. Patrick, and the Bath, of St. Andrew of Russia, and of the Prussian orders of the Black and Red Eagle; a Field Marshal in the British army, Chancellor of the University of Dublin, a Fellow of the Royal Society and the Society of Antiquaries, &c. &c.

Prince Ernest-Augustus of Brunswick Lunenburg, the fifth son of King George the Third and Queen Charlotte, was born at Kew, on the 5th of June, 1771. His baptism was performed in the Great Council Chamber at St. James's, by Archbishop Cornwallis, on the 1st July following. The sponsors were his uncle his Serene Highness Prince Ernest of Mecklenburg Strelitz, from whom he received his name, and who attended in person; his Serene Highness Prince Maurice of Saxe-Gotha, represented by the Earl of Hertford, Lord Chamberlain of his Majesty's Household; and her Serene Highness the Hereditary Princess of Hesse Cassel, represented by the Countess of Egremont. His early days were spent with his younger brothers at the place which gave him birth, and his first preceptors were Mr. Cookson and Dr. Hughes. As a boy he distinguished himself by his vigour of mind and his proficiency, particularly in Latin. In 1786 the three princes were sent to the University of Gottingen, each attended by "a governor, a preceptor, and a gentleman." They were lodged in one house, and had their table fixed at 600 crowns a week, including two grand institution dinners, to which the professors and some students were invited. They were taught German by Professor Meyer, Latin by the celebrated Heyne, religion by Less, ecclesiastical counsellor, and morality by counsellor Feder; for which duties each professor received an additional allowance of 1000 crowns (4007.) per annum. Prince Ernest took a great interest in his military studies, which were directed by General Malortie, one of the ablest military professors of that day.

On the 2d June, 1786, the four younger sons of King George III. were elected Knights of the Garter, in virtue of a new statute dated the 31st May, admitting the sons of the sovereign of the order, for the time being, in addition to the number of knights established by the ancient sta

tutes. The Duke of Kent was then at Hanover; the three other brothers were invested with the insignia of the order the same day.

In 1790 his Royal Highness Prince Ernest commenced his career as a soldier, under the particular superintendence of Lieut.-General the Baron Sir Charles Linsengen, serving in the 9th Hanoverian Light Dragoons, to the command of which he was raised in the year 1793. He proved himself a brave and not unskilful soldier, and saw some hard service. In 1794 he was appointed to the command of the first brigade of cavalry in charge of the outposts of Marshal Walmoden's army; and in an engagement near Tournay he lost his left eye, and was severely wounded in the arm. In consequence of these wounds he returned to England; but, before his health was completely restored, he hastened back to the army, in November of the same year. During the celebrated sortie from Nimeguen he performed a daring feat of strength and bravery. Having broken his sabre in the fight, he parried with "the fragment of his blade" a furious blow which a French dragoon was aiming at his head, and seizing his enemy round the waist, lifted him off his horse, and carried him a prisoner into the British quarters. On the retreat of the British forces through Holland the Prince was entrusted with the difficult and dangerous command of the rear-guard, after which he remained in charge of the line of demarcation in Westphalia, until the conclusion of the peace in 1795, when the army retired into Hanover.

In 1796 Prince Ernest returned, after an absence of two years, to England, and in 1798 he was raised to the rank of Lieutenant-General.

In April 1799 the King conferred dignities of peerage both in Great Britain and Ireland on his four younger sons. The titles conferred on Prince Ernest were those of Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, and Earl of Armagh-one, as in the case of his other brothers, being taken from each of the three kingdoms. At the same period he received a grant of 12,0007. a-year from Parliament; which was afterwards increased to 18,000.

In the same year he was appointed to the command of the British cavalry in the expedition to the Helder; but, owing to the ill success of the enterprise, his portion of the force was not even disembarked. On the 28th March, 1801, he was appointed Colonel of the 15th Hus
