It is our very painful duty to record the death of the venerable and honoured THOMAS CLARKSON. This event took place at Playford Hall, near Ipswich, on Saturday, the 26th ult., at a quarter past three in the morning. He was born on the 28th March, 1760, and was consequently in the eighty-seventh year of his age, sixty of which were devoted to promote the abolition of slavery and the slave-trade.
