persevering exertions he successfully used, for the welfare of particular friends, were at all times and under all circumstances unequivocal and truly distinguished.The following dramatical pieces are by him: 1.

Lately. In his 66th year, Mr. Francis Jukes, aquatinta engraver and publisher, more than twenty years resident in Howland-street, but late of Upper John-street, Fitzroy-squ. He was a native of Martley, co. Worcester; and by dint of the utmost frugality and industry, raised himself to eminence in his profession, the delightful art of Aquatinta Engraving; of which, if he was not the inventor, he certainly was the first that brought it to a degree of perfection: witness the numerous beautiful specimens he has given to the world. His intense assiduity in business cost him his life. Superintending coutinually with indefatigable attention a large body of aquafortis, in the operation of his art, for such a number of years as he did, the effluvia of that pernicious acid to the human frame, brought an oppression upon his breath, which never left him but with life. In his line of publication he was upon the point of establishing a good exportation trade to Basil in Switzerland, just as that curse of nations, the French Revolution, broke out, which blasted all his prospects of a lucrative connexion in that profe:sion, as it did those of that respectable Artist, Mr. Valentine Green, in his bold attempt of the Dusseldorff Gallery. From habits of the strictest intimacy in youth, and occasional correspondence through progressive life, the lamenting writer of this memoir was so attached in friendship to the deceased (though accidentally informed of his death) that he could not let his remains go to the grave without "the passing tribute of a sigh."

R.

At Elvas, of wounds received at the battle of Albuera, aged 20, universally beloved and sincerely regretted, Lieut. Henry Ireson Jones, of the 9th Fusileers; a most promising officer, possessing the highest principles of honour and liberality.

March 1. In St. Martin's-lane, after a life of uniform active benevolence, aged 80, Dr. Maxwell Garthshore, F. R. S. &c.

He had practised at least 40 years with the highest reputation, as a physician and accoucheur, in London. To the poor his practice for several years had been gratuitous, and he dispensed besides liberal benefactions among the poor who flocked to consult him, though his own habits of life were parsimonious. Dr. Garthshore has left about 25,000/. in legacies to various friends; and the residue of his property, somewhat more than 30,000%. to Mr. Maitland, the steady and uniform friend of himself and of his late son. From that son, the Doctor derived the principal part of his wealth. He used to say, My son, when living, made me poor. At his death, he made me rich."

March 2. In his 63d year, George Maule, esq. attorney at law, one of the Aldermen of the borough of Huntingdon, and Steward to the Earl of Sandwich. Although of a profession to which such a mode of procedure may be regarded as inimical, he was ever more solicitous to promote unity, than to increase the number of his clients by fomenting discord. Many have entered upon eternity, who were allowed to have amiable qualities; but few, like Mr. Maule, have enjoyed the rare felicity of possessing, through life, the sincere esteem of all ranks, within the sphere of his acquaintance; and whose demise is an event of universal regret. He was a fond father, an affectionate husband, an irreproachable agent, an indefatigable solicitor; and many, as well as the writer of this imperfect testimony of his worth, have experienced him to be a stedfast friend. In fine, those who best knew him most respected him, and will, to the last hour of their existence, revere his memory.

In his 83d year, Mr. Francis Blewet, many years proprietor of the Abingdon stage-coach.

At Gottenburgh, much lamented by her husband and friends, Mary Milow, a native of Greenfield, near Bridgewater, So

merset.

March 7. In Frith-street, sincerely la mented by an extended circle of surviving friends, Isaac Swainson, esq-To those who had the happiness of being intimately known to this gentleman, it would be unnecessary to say any thing respecting his merits but to others, it is but justice to departed worth to declare, that he was a warm and even enthusiastic friend to the cause of humanity in general. "Humani nihil à me alienum puto," seemed to be the spring from which all his actions flowed. In his private friendships, and in his personal attachments, his zeal scarcely knew any limits, exhibiting a benevolence of heart rarely to be met with.-On all occasions, he was particularly anxious to afford every assistance to those who were

climbing

climbing up the hill of Science; fully conscious also of the infirmity of human judgment, he was always the first to make every allowance for what he conceived to be error in others. The greater part of his valuable life was devoted to the noblest of purposes (viz. an unremitting study, how he might most effectually remove or alleviate the sufferings of his fellow creatures) by preparing and administering the celebrated vegetable syrup of De Velnos, of which he was the sole proprietor. This important duty he discharged with fidelity and diligence, during a period of thirty years; and with a saccess which has hitherto been unequalled in the annals of medicine. In the performance of this duty, his liberality was eminently conspicuous: his constant language was, "that the greatest happiness of his life consisted in being able to mitigate the sufferings of his fellow men;" and his actions always kept pace with his professions.-His remains, accompanied by a few select friends, were, on Saturday the 14th instant, interred in a family vault at Twickenham; where, led on by ardent desire to increase his knowledge in the vegetable kingdom, he had formed a botanical garden, which has long been, not only the admiration of the nobility and gentry in the neighbourhood, but of men of science, in almost all parts of the island. (See an Advertisement on our Blue Cover of the present Month.)

March 9. At Blackheath, in his 80th year, Rev. Andrew Burnaby, D. D. Archdeacon of Leicester, and for more than 43 years vicar of Greenwich. The purest integrity and benevolence of heart, the most unaffected urbanity of manners, and a lively and ardent zeal for his holy profession, were conspicuous among the many public and private virtues which adorned this truly excellent man and venerable divine. Dr. Burnaby was a native of Asfordby in Leicestershire, of which place his father, grandfather, and great grandfa ther, were in succession patrons and rectors, as his youngest brother is at this time. He was elected into Westminster college in 1748, but removed from that school, and was entered of Queen's college, Cambridge. After having travelled through the middle settlements in North America in 1759 and 1760, Dr. Burnaby was appointed chaplain to the British factory at Leghorn, where he resided five years; in occasional excursions visited Corsica, and almost every part of Italy; and, during the last of those years (Sir John Dick having obtained his Majesty's leave to return to England for his private concerns) had the honour to do the Consular business, by the appointment of Government, under the denomination of Procousul. In 1769 he was presented to the vicarage of Greenwich; and in 1786 the

archdeaconry of Leicester was conferred on him by Bishop Thurlow, without the least expectation or solicitation on his part; both which preferments he enjoyed till his death. Dr. Burnaby was eminently distinguished as a writer, as will appear by the following list of his publications: 1. "On the Nature of Subscription to Articles of Religion (a Sermon preached before the Rev. Dr. John Law, Archdeacon of Rochester, at his Visitation at Bromley, July 17, 1774," 8vo. 2. "Travels through the Middle Settlements in North America in the years 1759 and 1760; with Observations upon the state of the Colonies, 1775," 4to; a second edition in 8vo, 1775; a third in 1798-9, greatly enlarged*. 3. A small volume of Six Sermons; that upon the nature of Subscription to Articles of Religion therein included; owing to a particular circumstance, and by the advice of two of the most eminent and distinguished prelates at that time in this kingdom. 4. "On Religious Zeal, a sermon preached in Greenwich church, June 11, 1780) (the time of the riots in London), and addressed to every Protestant subject in the realm," 8vo. (There was also printed a penny edition of this spirited discourse, for the benefit of the common people.) 5. "A Sermon, preached before the House of Commons, Feb. 11, 1781," (a Generat Fast-day), 4to. 6. "A Sermon, preached at Greenwich, on occasion of the National Thanksgiving, July 29, 1784," 4to. 7. "A Sermon, preached at Greenwich, April 23, 1789, on occasion of his Majesty's Recovery," 4to. 8. "Two Charges delivered to the Clergy of the archdeaconry of Leicester, in the years 1786 and 1787;" published in 1790, 8vo. 9. "A Sermon, preached at Greenwich, Nov. 4, 1792," published in 1793, 4to. 10. "The Blessings enjoyed by Englishmen a motive for their Repentance, a Fast-day Sermon, preached at Greenwich, April 19, 1793," 4to. 11. "A Charge to the Clergy of the archdeaconry of Leicester, 1797." He printed, for the use of particular friends, a very small impression of, 12. "Jour

*This tour was made previously to the disputes with America, where, Dr. Burnaby observes in his preface, "a spirit of party was universally prevalent, and it was not always an easy matter to arrive at the knowledge of the truth." The author had no political purpose to serve; a circumstance which, with many readers, will raise the estimation of the work. For what he modestly calls "the most valuable part of the work, the Diary of the Weather," he professes himself indebted to his esteemed friend Francis Fauquier, esq. son of the late worthy governor of Virginia, who transmitted it to him from Williamsburgh while he was chaplain at Leghorn.

nal of a Tour to Corsica in the Year 1766. With a Series of Original Letters from General Paoli to the Author, referring to the principal Events which have taken place in that Island, from the Year 1769 to 1802. With Explanatory Notes, 1804." 13. An octavo volume of "Occasional Sermons and Charges," 1805; most of which had before appeared in separate and detached publications; a form in which they were likely to be preserved only in the collections of the curious; but they will now make a part of every wellchosen theological library. [The volume contains 18 Sermons, delivered at various places, and chiefly on public occasions, between the years 1764 and 1782; four Charges to the archdeaconry of Leicester; a Petition from the Clergy of that archdeaconry (proposed, but not accepted) on the Slave Trade, 1788; and a Letter to the Clergy on the same subject, 1792.] 14. "The Sin and Danger of Schism, considered in a Charge (intended to be) delivered to the Clergy of the archdeaconry of Leicester, at the summer visitation in 1811, 8vo. (See our vol. LXXXI. part ii. page 149.) - Dr. Burnaby's Sermons and Charges are excellent compositions, as well in a literary point of view, as in their able support of our present religious establishment; and in his Travels, which have reached a third edition, he relates what he saw, with great fidelity.

On the 16th, ten days after the decease of her venerable husband, aged 76, Mrs. Burnaby, dau. and heiress of John Edwyn, esq. of Bagrave, co. Leic, In the performance of the most extensive charities, and of every Christian duty, towards her fellow-creatures, she most cordially co-operated, for more than 40 years, with her beloved husband; and their mutual and earnest desire that they might not long be separated by death, has now been granted them by the mercy of their Creator.

March 13. In Old Burlington-street, the Fari of Uxbridge, Lord Lieutenant of the counties of Anglesea and Stafford, Keeper of the castle of Caernarvon, Ranger of Snowden forest, and Vice-admiral of North Wales, Pembrokeshire, and Carmarthen

shire. His death was hastened by an unlucky event a few days before. Two of his servants were helping him to walk, and one of them quitted his Lordship's arm to shut the door; the other servant bad not strength to sustain his master singly: they both fell, and one of the Noble Lord's ribs was broken. His Lordship was born June 18, 1744, and married, April 11, 1767, Jane, eldest daughter of Arthur Campugne, Dean of Clonmacrois, Ireland, by whom he had a numerous family. His lordship has left 20,000l. to Sir A. Paget; 10,000l. to each of the rest of his offspring, except Lord P. to whom he has left the bulk of his fortune. He is succeeded in his titles and honours, by his eldest son, Henry William Lord Paget.

March 19. At Wimbledon, in his 77th year, Mr. Horne Tooke, of whom we shall give memoirs in a future page.

Vol. LXXXI. Part ii. p. 490. The late Dr. Reynolds will ever be remembered with the greatest respect, by all who had the happiness of knowing and appreciating his private worth and experiencing his professional skill and beneficence, To the most polished manners, and gentleness of disposition, were united the liberal qualities which form the friend, the scholar, and the gentleman. To his family his loss is irreparable, and to those who enjoyed his society a very severe one.-Memoirs of him shall be presented to our Readers hereafter.

P. 666. The absurd fancy of Sir N. Holland, formerly Dance, perhaps should not be unnoticed. He endeavoured to destroy every memorial of his having been a painter, by getting up every portrait he could obtain. The late Mr. Dummer gave his estates to his wife (the now widow of Sir N. Holland) for her life, remainder to the late William Chamberlaine, esq. solitor to the Treasury. His son will enjoy them after his lady's death.

P. 667. Mr. Tessier some years ago purchased Woodcote at Epsom, which had been the seat of Lord Baltimore, and resided there till his death.
