England in Mourning.
London, April 19. A bulletin published this morning with reference to Earl Bcaconsfield’s death, states that after a severe relapse which His Lordship suffered during the night, he sank rapidly, and breathed his last at half-past four this morning. His attendants state that His Lordship passed away without much pain and peacefully, as if sleeping. The news of Earl Beaconsfield’s death has been received with universal sorrow and regret throughout the county.
The death of Earl Beaconsfield is deeply deplored by all political parties, and has created a profound sensation throughout Europe. It was officially announced to-day that Her Majesty the Queen expressed great grief at the loss of her most valued and devoted friend and counsellor, the late Earl.
