Died, at Albany, on the 18th ultimo, Major-General PHILIP SCHUYLER, in the 71ft year of his age.-A man, eminent for his ufeful labours, in the military and civil affairs of our country. Diftinguished by ftrength of intellect, extenfive knowledge, foundness and purity of moral and political principles, he was a practical, not a theoretical statesman; an active, not a vifionary patriot. He was wife in devifing, enterprifing and perfevering in the execution of plans of great and publick utility. Too intelligent to found his notions of political or civil government upon the perfectability of man, or upon any other views of the human character, than thofe derived from the experience of ages and too honeft to tell the people that their liberties could be preferved in any other way, than by the wholefome restraints of a conftitution and laws, energetick, yet free.

In private life, he was dignified, but courteous in his manners hofpitable; a pleafing and inftructive companion; ardent and fincere in his friendship; affectionate in his domeftick relations, and just in his dealings.

The death of fuch a man is truly a fubject of private and of publick forrow.

His remains were interred, on Wednefday, the 21ft ultimo, with military

honours.

At Gloucester, 15th inft. in the 78th year of his age, Rev. ELI FORBES, D.D. paftor of the Congregational church in that place.

Dr. Forbes was born at Westborough, in the county of Worcester, in October, O S. 1726. He was the youngest son of deacon Jonathan Forbes.

Nurtured by pious parents, his mind became early affected by religious fentiments and being naturally inquifitive, it was the predominant defire of his boyifh days to become a minister of the gospel. In Oǝber, 1744, he com

menced his collegiate ftudies, and began to enjoy the fatisfaction of advancing towards that object, from the attainment of which he anticipated the best happiness of his life. Thefe preparatory purfuits, and, confequently, his hopes, were, for a fhort time, fufpend ed, by the neceflity of exchanging his fchool for a camp. In the month of July following he was demanded as a foldier, and, having laid aside his books, he cheerfully flung his pack, fhouldered his mufket, and marched more than a hundred miles in defence of his country against the French and Indians. He was however through the interpofition of fome worthy clergymen foon releafed, and returning with increased refolution to his ftudies in July, 1747, he became a member of Harvard College.

By his own exertions having defrayed the expences of his collegiate education, and purfued his ftudies to great advantage, he graduated in 1751, and immediately commenced his theological inquiries under the direction of Rev. Ebenezer Parkman, of Weftborough. On the 3d of June, 1752, he became the first ordained minifter of the 2d parish in Brookfield.

In the years 1758 and '59, he twice accompanied the provincial regiments under Col. Ruggles, in the capacity of chaplain.

In 1762 he went as a missionary to the Oneidas, the chief tribe of the fix nations of Mohawks, and planted the first chriftian church at Onoquagie, on the river Sufquehannah, about a hun dred and twenty miles from lake Ofwe go, which is its fource. Here also he established two fchools, one for chil dren, and another for adults; and having adminiftered to the infant church the ordinances of the Lord's fupper, he returned, leaving Mr. A. Rice, his col league, the care of the new inftitutions.

On his return from his miffion to the Oneidas, Mr. F. brought with him four

Indian children, one of whom he entered at Dartmouth College; and after furnishing them with fuch knowledge as would be most useful, returned the other three to the tribe to which they belonged. He likewife on this occafion brought away a lad who was born in New-York, and had been left among the Indians by his uncle at fo early an age, as completely to have been formed by their example, and viewed by them as one of their children. Having fubdued, with great difficulty, the favage propenfities of this lad, he found him to be of a good difpofition, ingenious, and apt to learn; and, after initiating him into the preparatory knowledge which is required, prefented him at Harvard College, into which he was received. The board of commiflioners at Bofton, being at this time defirous of obtaining an interpreter to a miffionary, he was offered, accepted and, immediately fent to the tribe from which he had been feparated. Here he remained a year; after which, application being made to him by Dr. Wheelock, who had inftituted a school for the instruction of Indians, he accepted the appointment of its preceptor, and obtained a degree at Dartmouth College, During the rev olutionary war, he was appointed by Congress to be their agent, for which he was peculiarly qualified by his attachment to the interefts of his country, his great influence with the Indians, and his perfect knowledge of their language. In this office his great fidelity and ufefulness were acknowledged; and pubfick gratitude is due to the venerable man by whom he was refcued from favare life, and from whom his firft inftructions were derived.

During the fall and winter of the years 1775-6, an uneafinefs and oppoition being excited among the people of his charge at Brookfield, by the groundless fufpicion that he was a tory, is life was rendered unhappy, and his labours ineffectual of that good, which it was his earnest defire to produce. In the month of March therefore he requefted and obtained an honourable difmillion; and after the lapfe of only two fabbaths, by defire of the church committee he preached in Gloucester, where he was inftalled on the 5th of June, 1776, and in which place he died, re

vered and lamented by all to whom he was known.

Dr. F. published many fingle fermons. Whilft at Brookfield, he atlifted his worthy friend, Dr. Fiike, by furnishing fev eral numbers which appeared in the Worcester Gazette, under the signature of "The Obferver," and which, after the death of Dr. Fiike, were collected and published in a different form. But the principal publication of Dr. Forbes was a small octavo volume, which he called a family book. The works which he has printed are characterized by fimplicity and purity of style, by fervent, but unoftentatious and unobtrusive piety. They are addreffed both to the underftanding and the affections; and at the fame time that they evince his judg ment and his zeal, they induce, in the attentive reader, conviction of their truth, and animate to new exertions in the offices of piety and virtue.

In Boston, on the 6th inftant, very fuddenly and deeply regretted, the Right Reverend SAMUEL PARKER, D.D. Bishop of the Protestant Epifcopal Church in Maffachusetts, in the 60th year of his age.

Dr. Parker was born at Portsmouth in the ftate of New Hampshire, in the year 1745. He had from the care of his excellent father all the advantages of education which our country could furnish, and was graduated at Harvard College in 1763. In 1773 he was ordained by the bishop of London, and immediately returned to Boston, and be came an affiftant minifter at Trinity Church. In 1775 the revolutionary war began, he was foon after left alone to ftruggle with all the difficulties of his ftation, which at that period were neither few nor fmall. The four other clergymen of the Epifcopal perfuation in this town having emigrated to Eu rope, although he was then unmarried, and had very flattering offers to remove, he firmly adhered to his duty, and had the fatisfaction of finding his confcientious exertion crowned with fuccefs, and his church thereby fecured from difperfion, and its numbers annually augmented; and he lived to receive the higheft honours that can be conferred on that important profeflion in the U nited States. As bishop of the Epifco
