handing Lady H. and her fifter into her postchaife, to go to attend the Aberdeen races, which commenced next day, his Lordship had just mounted his horfe, and in leaning forward, the animal ftruck him a violent blow with his head on the cheft, which ftunned him fo much that he fell. His groom immediately ran to his affiftance, and in a few minutes he was fo far recovered as to be able again to mount his horfe with apparent eafe; but before he had proceeded a few yards, the fervant perceived him to be feized with a fudden giddiness, and he fell to the ground motionless. The bursting of a blood veffel is fuppofed to have been the immediate caufe of his death. He was much refpected by his friends, and has left a widow and large family feverely to lament the irreparable lofs they have fuftained.

At Thorp-Lee-houte, in Surrey, fincerely regretted by all who had the happiness of his acquaintance, Jeremiah Waring, cfy, one of the people called Quakers. In thole virtues which alone can confer true nobility, none were fuperior; in mental endowments, few were his equals: yet, though to eminently gifted, m defty and diffidence were diftinguished traits in his character; and it may be justly faid, he was cloathed with humility" as a garment. The tenor of his life, from early youth to the clofing hour, afforded a thining example of the "beauty of holiness;" dedicating the talents he had received to the honour and fervice of HIM who gave them. His piety was fervent, devoid of all fuperftition, and evidently that of an enlarged and liberal mind. A tenderly affectionate parent; a kind and generous mafter; a warm and faithful friend; to the poor a charitable benefactor; delighting in acts of mercy; alleviating the forrows of the widow; wiping away the tears of the fatherlefs; and ever zealous in the promotion of good works. He fuftained the languors of fickness and pain with exemplary patience and refigation; and, in the 76th year of his age, calm, peaceful, and without a figh, quitted this tranfitory fcene, with a certain

affurance of a bleffed and glorious admiffion into that reft prepared for the righteous.

Her remains were depofited in a vault built for the purpofe in the church-yard at Fulham, next to the tomb of the late excellent Bishop Lowth, which spot the herself had fixed on. Her elegant and engaging manners, joined to mufical talents, and a voice of a fuperior degree of excellence, particularly in facred mufick, rendered her, while living, the delight of a large circle of friends, and, at her death, an irreparable lofs to her afflicted family.

At Oxford, in his 71ft year, univerfally lamented, Sir Richard Tawney, knt. fenior alderman and father of that antient city; over which he prefided three times in the important office of mayor, with dignity to himself and benefit to the publick. His conduct as a magiftrate, in the impartial diftribution of justice to the poor as well as the rich, in unwearied attention to, and watchful concern for, every thing that tended either to the honour or profperity of the corporation, will ever endear his memory to all good citizens; and his conduct will be long looked up to by all the members of that refpectable body as a perfect example for their imitation. His office of mayor and his life clofed within a few days of each other; and it has been much regretted by his friends, that a confcientious perfeverance in the difcharge of the important truft committed to him prevented him from going to the fea-fide, which, under the bleating of Providence, might have helped to fuftain a declining conftitution, and enabled him to have fpun out, for fome time Jonger, a life fo truly valuable to fociety. He was a zealous and steady friend to our prefent happy establishment in church and ftate; and the author of this little sketch of his life has often heard him exclaim, with great ardour, how thankful he and every Englishman ought to be, that Providence had placed them under fo wife and happy a government. In private life he was a chearful companion; and his friends, who were both refpectable and numerous, ever found at his houfe a generous and cordial welcome. In a word, his manners, habits, fentiments, and style of living, ferved to convey a juft idea of a plain, honeft, hofpitable Englishman; a character which, however estimable, is, we fear, in the prefent day, almoft become extinct. From great attention and industry in a refpectable and extenfive line of bufinefs, as a public brewer, he acquired a very ample fortune, which he has bequeathed (a few legacies excepted) to his only furviving brother, Edward Tawney, efq. fenior alderman, and now father of the city.
