Aug. 8.
I have sad news for you to-day; which, however, you will have heard before this reaches you.
Mr. Rantoul is dead.
I have been spending the morning about him, and the arrangements to be made on his account. It will devolve on me to announce his death in the House to-morrow: so I can write you no more to-day.
