Of his proficiency in oriental literature, and his correct and elegant tafte, the world has already had a favourable specimen in his Tranflations of Select Pieces of Arabic Poetry: but religion, as well as literature, has fuftained a fevere lofs in his death; fince it will at leaft fufpend the correct edition of the Arabic Bible, which he had undertaken at the request of a most respectable fociety compofed of many eminent perfons (amongst whom the bishop of Durham is one of the most active) and for which every preparation had been already made in this town; and must put an entire top to his great and fa vourite vourite project of giving a complete edition of the New Teftament in Greek, which was to contain not only the various readings collected by Mill, Bengelius, Westein, Griefbach, and Matthaei, but alfo those of more than thirty Greek manufcripts which he had collected during his refidence and travels in the Turkish empire, together with a new and accurate collation of the Syriac and other ancient verfions. With his Differtation on the Troad, and Obfervations made during his Tour through Leffer Afia, Syria, and Egypt, the public may hope to be gratified. During the short period of his refidence at Newcastle, his extreme fufferings from a painful and diftreffing malady have prevented his engaging in general intercourfe; but the few friends who have had the happiness occafionally to visit him, have feen enough of the extent of his acquirements, the vivacity of his congerfation, and the ardour of his literary purfuits, to render the unlooked-for event of his death a fubject of their moft fincere regret. John Whitebead, M. D. an eminent phyfi. cian, a celebrated preacher among the Methodists, and author of a valuable Life of the late Rev. John Wesley. An excellent funeral fermon was preached on the occafion, by the Rev. Mr. Benfon, at Mr. Wesley's chapel, on his deceased brother, who, in 1790, in the fame pulpit, had preached Mr. Welley's funeral fermon, and was interred in the fame vault, on the 14th of March. Born of honeft induftrious parents in the country, Mr. Whitehead, at an early age, exhibited proofs of genius; as, before twenty, he was a proficient in the Latin and Greek languages. Early in life he was connected with the Meffrs. Wefley, and preached at Bristol. He left them, however, and fet up as a linen-draper in that city, but failed in bufinefs; after which, he became a Quaker, and a fpeaker in the congregations of that refpectable body, who, by their beneficent friendship, fet him up in a large boarding-fchool at Wandsworth, where many of their children were educated. Mr. Barclay, wishing his fon to travel, propofed Dr. Whitehead to be his companion, paid all his expences, and fettled on him Icol. a year for that purpofe. They went to Leyden, and Mr. Whitehead's thirst for knowledge induced him to attend the anatomical and philofophical lectureship; and, about 1790, he had arrived to fuch a pitch of medical knowledge, that his correfpondence with Dr. Lettfom induced that truly refpectable character to bring him forward; fo that, even while at Leyden (Dr. Kooyftra, phyfician of the London Difpenfary in Primrofe ftreet, dying) the Doctor introduced him to 'that most excellent charity. After he had been in London about two years, the Quakers made a hard push to bring him into the London Hofpital, Mile End, which was only lot by one vote, occafioned by giving a draft on a banker for payment the following day, in ftead of the prefent, at the time of the elec a tion. In about three years, the Doctor united himself again to the Wefleys; agreeably to the wish that Mr. Wefley teftified in these words to Mr. Ranken: "Do what you can to unite Dr. Whitehead with us again." He facceeded; Dr. Whitehead preached very often, and was highly esteemed both as a phy fician and preacher; fo much fo, that he attended Mr. Welley in his last illness, and (as has been already stated) preached his funeral fermon. He afterward published "The Life of the Rev. John Wesley, M. A. fometime Fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford, collected from his private Papers and printed Works, and written at the Request of his Executors." Of this work, which profeffedly forms Hiftory of Methodifm," the first volume appeared in 1793, and the fecond in 1796. In reviewing it, a candid writer in the British Critic fays," Dr. Whitehead is certainly entitled to the grateful acknowledgments of all those to whom Mr. Wefley's memory is dear." The authors of the Monthly Review alfo fpoke of it in the highest terms; faying, that they had never formed fo favourable an opinion of Mr. Welley till his Biographer appeared. But this occafioned a rupture between Dr. Coke and his affociates, who were ftyled "The Conference," and Dr. Whitehead, as they intended themselves to publish a Life; and the publication caufed much party-difpute among the Wesley-methodists, fo as to exclude the Doctor from preaching; but a reconciliation afterwards took place, and he was again admitted to the pulpit. We have only to add, that, for three months before his departure, Mr. Whitehead faid his glafs was nearly run, and behaved with great refignation and Chriftian fortitude. greater part of the above particulars were communicated to Mr. Benfon by Mr. Pawfon and Mr. Ranken, who were in the frictest habits of friendship with the deceased from their early lives.

His fervants, though not mentioned in the will, he recommended in a particular manner to Lord Grenville, who has undertaken to provide for them.
