At his son's, Northampton-square, Rev. Wm. Vidler, minister of the Unitarian Chapel, Parliament-court, Artillery-lane:

At Wixley Hall, co. York, aged upwards of 80, Rev. James Richardson, who had been a resident there 22 years. Aug. 24. At Hammersmith, Charles Taylor, M. D. secretary to the Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce, in the Adelphi. Dr. Taylor pursued the arduous and important duties of his office, for 16 years, with a degree of zeal and ability highly honourable to himself and beneficial to the Society. Reared in the bosom of our manufactures, his mind received an early bias in favour of Science and the Arts; and he pursued them with unabated ardour to the termination of a long life, devoted not only to their improvement, but to every other species of public utility. Such was the sincerity of his attachment to the Patriotic Body of which he was the official organ, that within a few hours of his dissolution he expressed the most lively wishes for its prosperity, and a fervent hope that his successor would be animated by a zeal superior to his own. By his death the Society has lost an invaluable officer, and mankind a friend. The acquirements of his head, and the sensibilities of his heart, did him equal honour, and will be long remembered by the extensive circle in which he moved. He was the Author of " Remarks on Sea Water as conducive to Health," and of various interesting articles in the Transactions of the Society to which he belonged, in the Monthly Magazine, in the Philosophical Magazine, and in other Miscellaneous Publications.

Aged 77, Thomas Weatherill, esq. of Stokesley, co. York.

At Stratford Lodge, co. Wicklow, the wife of Hon. B. O'Neale, Stratford. Aug. 25. At Peckham, in his 61st year, Mr. Charles Harman, late of Wineoffice court, Fleet-street, solicitor.

At the Duchess Dowager of Beaufort's, Stoke, near Bristol, Wilhelmina-ElizabethSarah, only child of Lord John Somerset. Aged 71, Wm. Davies, esq. of York. Aug. 26. At Southgate, aged 56, J.

Dyne, esq.

At Arundel, Captain Henry Tilleux Fraser, R. N. of Ashley, son of the late General Fraser.

At St. Catherine's, near the Tower, in his 53d year, John Dixon, esq.

At Rome, Robert Fagan, esq. his Britannic Majesty's consul-general for Sicily, GENT. MAC. October, 1816.

&c. He had been for several months affected with melancholy; and his death was caused by his throwing himself out of a window. Mr. Fagan had resided several years in Italy, and caused frequent searches to be made in the environs of Rome, by digging for antiquities; and he was always particularly fortunate in finding articles of value.

Aug. 27. At Innerweek, Scotland, Rev. J. Harvie, minister of that place.

At Blankney, near Stamford, aged 58, Charles Chaplin, esq. M.P. for the county of Lincoln. In the death of this gentleman, the County, as well as the publick at large, have to deplore the loss of a most worthy and valuable character. As a Member of Parliament, to which honourable station he was invited in a manner the most flattering, no one ever exercised the duties which that station demands, with greater integrity and assiduity. As a magistrate, the district which he has ceased to superintend, will best know how to appreciate the loss which it has sustained. In his family, on his estate, in bis county, he was equally respected and beloved. The moderation and the kindness which he evinced towards those under his care, were no less uniform than unexampled; and as a landlord, few will be followed with more sincere or more universal regret than that now testified by the numerous and respectable tenants on his domain. To these men, no other steward was known than their lord; and, when they were seeking assistance or redress, the relation of their misfortunes; as well as their complaints, found no devious channel to go through; for, unlike the modern absentee, this true English country gentleman did not disdain, periodically, to sit down, at his own hospitable board, with the farmers of his soil.

Suddenly, James Gilchrist, esq. of Newton Airds, officer of the Commissariat of Dumfries.

At the Manse of Arrocaar, Rev. John Gillespie.

Aug. 29. In Upper Montague-street, Montague-square, aged 68, James Torre, esq. of Snydale Hall, co. York.

At Lilunthal, near Bremen, in his 71st year, John Jerome Schroeter, a great as

tronomer.

At Wokingham, Hon. Mary Bennett, relict of Hon. Lieut.-gen. Bennett. Sept. 2. At Foston hall, co. Derby, Catherine, wife of John Broadhurst, esq. M..P.

At Leicester, aged 74, Thos. Arnold, M. D. fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, and of the Royal Medical Society of Edinburgh, senior physician to the Infirmary, and sole physician to the Lunatic Asylum, Leicester. He was author of "Dissertatio de Pleuritide," 1766, 8vo. "Observations on the Nature, Causes, and Prevention of Insanity," 1782, 2 vols. 8vo. "A Case of Hydrophobia successfully treated," 1793, 8vo. "Observations on the Management of the Insane," 1809, 8vo. He was father of Dr. T. G. Arnold, of Stamford. In his neighbourhood, and among an extensive circle of private friends, no man could be more sincerely or more deservedly beloved; while, in his public character, he always proved himself an unshaken friend of civil and religious liberty, and the anxious promoter of every design which tended to ameliorate distress. In a word, he was an enlightened ornament of his native town, and his station in society will not easily be filled again by a similar union of estimable qualities. He married a sister of the celebrated Mrs. Macaulay Graham, which more closely allied him to literature.

At Bristol, Mr. T. Shute, one of the surgeons to the Bristol Infirmary. In his public capacity many live to attest his skill and humanity; and his private virtues will live in the memory of his friends.

At Treneer, near Penzance, aged 77, Rev. Anth. Williams, A. M. vicar of St. Keverne; which, after holding 21 years, he resigned to the son of his patron; and had the singular fortune, after 18 years, to be presented to the Living a second time, which he held nine years more.

Sept. 5. At her brother's (Mr. Capel, Walthamstow) aged 46, Mrs. Sarah Gough.

At Exeter, aged 47, John Hutchings, esq. many years a partner in the City Bank.

At Gibraltar, in consequence of wounds received off Algiers on the 27th ultimo, aged 19, Mr. J. Harvey, midshipman, son of Mr. W. Harvey, of Penrhyn.

Sept. 6. In Belgrave Place, Pimlico, in his 80th year, Mr. Thomas Clark, proprietor of Exeter Change, and occupier with the sale of cutlery, turnery, &c of about one half of that extensive range of building. He was brought up under his father, who farmed his own estate near Coventry of about 20 acres of land. At the age of 22 he came to London, and got a place as a portér, in which situation he saved a little money; and on the death of his father acquired 200/. with which he went into partnership in trade, was unfortunate, and lost all: except the character of an honest man, which he was in the strictest sense of the word. He soon got another porter's place, and, by rigid economy, saved enough to take a stickshop at the corner of Exeter Change; and from that period he gradually prospered in his circumstances. After a time, he purchased the Menagerie, and used to give his customers a ticket to see the lions, &c. His dealings were marked with the utmost integrity, and he realized a fortune estimated at 300,000. What he sold was good-the price asked was invariably the price taken; and this excellent rule, added to the moderation of his profits, secured him that rapid retail custom which filled his coffers with the fruit offair industry. But what perhaps increased his wealth still more, was the moderate, we may say penurious nature of his habits. His house was at Pimlico, where he kept a good plain table, and on a Sunday had great pleasure in seeing his family about him; but his own dinner on six days in the week never exceeded 6d. and 2d. for a glass of gin and water. Morning and evening saw him on his old horse, as well known at Charing Cross as King Charles himself. Latterly, however, he came to town and returned in his son's carriage. Though addicted to the accumulation of money, it was by honourable means; and what appeared to others hard self-privation, was probably to him, who relished no higher pleasures, an enjoyment, as it was a second nature. Nor was he incapable of performing, at times, actions of the most liberal and honourable kind. The following pleasing anecdote of him, we have reason to believe, is authentic: In 1812, a young man who had spent his fortune, and was in great distress, called to borrow a few pounds; the reply was, that he never gave or lent a shilling to the drunkard and dissipated. The applicant retired, but was called back; and, after a severe admonition, the old gentleman observed, that, when he was a poor man, the youth's father had been kind to him, and therefore he considered himself his debtor: "What I owe to the father, I will pay to the sou;" giving him a handsome sum. The reproof had such an effect, that the young man changed his

babits of life, and is become a respectable member of society. It is reported that when the income-tax was imposed, he gave in his schedule at 6000/. The collector returned it to him for amendment, under the supposition that he had returned his whole stock, instead of his annual income. Mr. C. hitched on another thousand, and assured the collector that he was sure it was the full amount. "Aye, but (said the other) I want your incomenot your property." "Are you content?" "Yes!" "So am I," replied the old trader, and wished the astonished collector a brief good morning. Upon the whole, he was an eccentric man, but one in whom eccentricity was not vice; odd in his manners, but upright in his intercourse with the world; attached to money, but capable of many generous, benevolent, and disinterested acts of humanity and charity. His large fortune devolves to his only son.

He was also a partner in a banking-house; and long held a command in the yeomanry cavalry.

of their long friendship, and speaks highly of his exemplary character, as a Parish Priest, and a Magistrate.

At Stanground, co. Huntingdon, aged 32, Catherine, wife of William Strong, esq. of that place, and daughter of George Maxwell, esq. of Fletton, in the same county; a gentleman, who, with infelicity singular even at his advanced period of life, bath seen a numerous family, all, save one, precede him to the grave. The praise which human judgment would teach her afflicted friends to ascribe to her, would be too exquisite for human frailty; yet were it unseemly not to say, that, if she had a fault, it was known ouly to her God. To the darts of real affliction she ever opposed the impenetrable shield of religious resignation; yet, alas! (such is mortal weakness) amid the acknowledged possession of every external blessing, she drooped a victim to constitutional despondency. Sensible almost to the last of her dreadful delusion, she opposed to it with unabating firmness the energies of her sainted mind; till overstrained Nature, bending under the unnatural exertion, restored to her, in the bosom of her God, that happiness, which it had pleased his infinite wisdom to snatch from her here.

Oct. 7. At Harborne, co. Stafford, in her 22d year, Miss Robinson, daughter of the Rev. Richard George Robinson, vicar of that place; whose many amiable qualities greatly endeared her to all her friends.

Oct. 9. At Twickenham, in her 93d year, the venerable and truly respectable Mrs. Haynes, relict of the late John Haynes, esq.

Oct. 12. At four o'clock in the morning, of a complication of maladies, including nervous affection with apoplexy and paralysis, the result of acutely-wounded sensibility, at his temporary apartments in the vicinity of London, the Rev. William Augustus Pemberton, B. D. one of the senior fellows and tutors of Emanuel College, and Registrer of the University of Cambridge. This gentleman died in the 43d year of his age, being born in the early part of 1774: he was the youngest son of Thomas Pemberton, Esq. the decease of whose amiable relict we have duly recorded in our Obituary for December, 1815, p. 571. In 1789, the subject of this brief article was matriculated at Cambridge; and, in 1794, took his degree of B. A. with credit, as ninth Wrangler; his friend Butler, of Chelsea, now beadmaster of Harrow School, being the senior Wrangler of the year. In 1797, Mr. P. proceeded A. M. In 1802, he became librarian to his College; and, in 1809, registrer of the University; in aecepting which confidential but easy appointments, he may with great truth be deemed to have conferred more of honour and re

spectability than he received. Whether Mr. P. be considered as a scholar or as a divine; as an instructor in human science, or as a teacher of the Gospel of Christ; as a man of mental talent, or as a man of moral worth; as a good mathematician, a student in the belles lettres, or a preacher of righteousness, bis labours in every branch of duty were conspicuous and abundant; his success was uniform and sure; his character was esteemed, for it deservedly stood high. In person well made; blessed with a full, strong, and sonorous voice, a very clear articulation, a most impressive and graceful mode of delivery, and a ready command of language, Mr. P. never ascended the pulpit but to please, to inform, to persuade, and to amend. Alas! the writer of this very imperfect sketch has long and deeply to regret the death of one, whom he has known, and valued, and honoured, and loved......ever since 1789! of one, whom he affectionately and faithfully regarded with increasing respect! of one, whose remains he had the painful satisfaction, the melancholy pride of tender and undis. sembled grief, to attend to the grave on Friday, Oct. 18, 1816.-HAIL! AND FAREWELL! There is another and a better world. Chelsea. Oct. 13. Mrs. Woodrifield, of Lynd

hurst.

Oct. 14. At Sidmouth, in her 26th year, Mrs. Charles Satterthwaite, widow of the late Charles Satterthwaite, esq. of Lancaster, and eldest daughter of the late Charles Francis Sheridan, esq. formerly secretary at war, Dublin Castle.

Oct. 17. Mary Elizabeth, during 35 years the affectionate wife of Robert Hazard, Esq. of Chart Place, near Maidstone, and formerly of Tarriers House, Bucks. She was the eldest daughter (by Jane his last wife) of the Rev. Geo. Lewis, A. M. vicar of Westerham, in the See of Rochester, and rector of Echingham, in the Diocese of Chichester.

Oct. 19. In Dorset-street, Portmansquare, in his 83d year, Robert Lukin, esq. brother to the late Dr. Lukin, dean of Wells, and half-brother to the late Right Hon. William Windham, of Felbrigg Hall, Norfolk.

Oct. 21. In St. James's-square, in bis 67th year, Rt. Hon. Win. Lygon, Earl Beauchamp. His lordship went to bed in apparently perfect health, after enjoying the society of a few particular friends; and about three o'clock expired in a fit of apoplexy. He was for many years M. P. for Worcester; and uniformly supported (at least since the commencement of the Revolutionary war) the administration of the illustrious Pitt, Early in 1808

he
