By frugality and carefulness he was enabled to realize a comfortable independence for himself and family.

DEATH OF LORD KEANE.—The decease of this gallant nobleman, at his seat in Hants, took place on Monday week, the immediate cause of his death being dropsy. John KEANE, Baron KEANE, of Ghuznee in Affghanistan, and Cappoquin, county Waterford, was born in 1781, and married first, in 1806, Miss SMITH, second daughter of General SMITH, by whom he had issue several children, and secondly in 1840, to the youngest daughter of the late Lieut.-Col. BOLAND. He entered the army at a very early age; his commission as ensign dating as far back as 1793. In 1812 he was destined to join the army under the Duke of Wellington at Madrid, and immediately on his arrival there, intrusted with the command of a brigade in the third division, in which corps he served until the end of the war with France, in 1814. In August, 1814, he was appointed to a command, ordered for particular service, and, on his arrival at Jamaica, being senior officer, assumed the command of the military force destined to co-operate with Sir Alexander COCHRANE, for the attack on New Orleans and the province of Louisiana. On the morning of the 8th of January, 1815, he was severely wounded in two places. Subsequently, as is well known, the gallant general held the sole command of the forces employed during the campaign in Affghanistan and Beloochistan, and it was owing to the brilliant achievement of the assault and capture of Ghuznee, that he was rewarded with the honour of a peerage, receiving the thanks of the House of Commons, and a pension of £2,000 during his life, and entailed on his decease to his two successors. For his services in Egypt he was rewarded with a medal, and for his services at Martinique, Vittoria, Pyrenees, Nivelle, Orthes, and Toulouse he gained a cross and two clasps. The deceased lord is succeeded by his eldest son, Captain the Hon. Edward Arthur Wellington KEANE, born in 1815, appointed major (by brevet) March 5, 1841. The present peer acted as aid-de-camp to his father throughout the war in Afghanistan.
