HENRY TYRWHITT, ESQ. May 31. At Toronto, Upper Canada, Henry Tyrwhitt, esq. Barrister-at-Law, of the Inner Temple.

This Gentleman was born at Stanley Hall, near Bridgenorth in Shropshire, on the 31st Aug. 1808, the fourth son of the late Richard Tyrwhitt, esq. of Nantyr, Denbighshire, Recorder of Chester, whose death was noticed in our Obituary of May 1836. He was called to the bar the 21st Nov. 1834. On the 22d July 1837 he sailed from Portsmouth for New York. After a tour through Lower and Upper Canada, as far as the settlements on Lake Huron, he was on the eve of being appointed Master and Accountantgeneral of the Court of Chancery then in progress of formation in the Upper Province, when the rebellion broke out on the 4th of December last, and turned the attention of all to the defence of the country. An enthusiast in things approaching to military adventure, and, amidst the outward security at Toronto, suspecting something serious to be in agitation, Mr. Henry Tyrwhitt rode out that evening to satisfy himself as to the motions of Mackenzie and his adherents. Wishing to find out his youngest brother, who had retired a day or two before from a position among the Radicals to a place called York Mills, about six miles from Toronto, he proceeded thither, disregarding small parties of armed men upon the road, and obtained the important information that the conspiracy had broken out, and the rebels were coming down in force and were close at hand. Soon after the brothers had met, and got to horse, they encountered a strong body of the enemy already in advance of York Mills, who prevented their return with the news to Toronto, and took them as prisoners to the rebel head quarters at Montgomery's tavern. Here during the night they witnessed the death of Colonel Moodie, an old Peninsular soldier, who was murdered in the attempt to pass the rebel guard. The next day they were marched on towards Toronto, with many other prisoners, in front of the rebels, in order, as the latter expressed it, that the first fire of their loyalist friends might take effect upon them. The brothers, however, escaped in a moment of confusion among their captors, and after lying in the woods for a day or two, got into Toronto by a circuitous route too shortly before Governor Sir F. B. Head's engagement with the rebels to have any share in it. Some time afterwards Mr. Henry Tyrwhitt was appointed Staff-Adjutant of the militia garrison of Toronto, and at last, in little more than eight months from his first ar

rival in Upper Canada, after a struggle of seventeen days with typhus-fever, he died, greatly lamented by the many to whom from the circumstances of the time he had become rapidly known. His funeral, which took place on the 2nd of June, was a military one, and attended by the officers of her Majesty's 24th and 34th regiments, as well as by 70 militia officers, and a great assemblage of people. With a fine person, an open hand, and a nature equally gallant and affectionate, he through life commanded the attachment and esteem of all who knew him. Though bred a civilian, his military turn was evident; and his whole bearing forcibly reminded the observer of one those "Cavaliers" of distinguished birth whose "Lives" his pen had begun to illustrate with equal fidelity and taste. (The notices of the Constable and Tyrwhitt families, in the Gentleman's Magazine for Feb. 1835, were from his pen.) With too much penetration to be deceived, too much integrity to be allured, and too high a courage to be awed, he was from the first (so far as youth and private station permitted) the uncompromising antagonist of all the miscalled "Reform" and "Liberality" which disgraces the present age, and, masked or unmasked, has now been for years assailing every bulwark of goodness, demolishing every barrier against licentious tyranny, and striking at every cord of union in this great Empire. Yet by none was he always more sincerely respected and loved than by those of the humbler ranks of society with whom business or neighbourhood at any time happened to connect him.

MR. W. CLARKE.

June 17. At his house near Hampstead, aged 37, Mr. William Clarke.

The following notice of Mr. Clarke is from the Courier:-"This gentleman, much better known in the world of literature by his works than by his name, was the author of Three Courses and a Dessert,' the Boy's Own Book,' and other volumes that have acquired great and deserved popularity. He was the editor and chief contributor to a curious little work, called The Cigar,' which contains numerous papers from his pen, some of them as brilliant in fancy as others are rich in humour. He was editor for some time of the Monthly Magazine, and has enriched our periodical literature with many admirable dissertations and whimsical expositions of human life and character. During the last three or four years, his time was exclusively devoted to the production of a most elaborate work on natural history,

upon which an enormous expenditure

must have been incurred. Mr. Clarke appears to have possessed a combination of great original powers, with a capacity for research, and various study, not often allied with them. He had considerable judgment and knowledge in all matters appertaining to the fine arts, more especially in their adaptation to books; the taste and beauty of the illustrations to several of his works are unquestionable proofs of this. Mr. Clarke, we regret to say, died in the midst of his useful and meritorious labours, so suddenly as to have been deprived of all opportunity to make due provision for his young family and their mother. He had been employing himself in his garden, and on entering the house was seized with an apoplectic attack, and expired almost instantly."

MR. GEORGE WATSON.

Lately. In the Union Workhouse, Maresfield, Sussex, aged 50, George Watson, an individual well known in that and adjoining counties, as the Sussex Calculator.

He was a native of Buxted. Though from want of education, or some peculiar eccentricity of constitution, he was almost an idiot in his general conduct, the powers of his memory were astonishing. He could state accurately where he had been on any day for the last thirty years, what persons he saw, and what he was about. He lived for many years with an uncle, in the parish of Buxted, who was a farmer, and he would recount the quantity of live stock bred during the whole time he lived with him, to whom they were sold, and the prices they fetched. He has been often asked to state on what day of the year Easter Sunday was for a century past, and has never been wrong in his answers. The birth days and ages of all the individuals among George's acquaintance were as well known to him as to themselves, and he has often raised a laugh against single ladies of a certain age, by stating the day of their birth in company. But one

of his favourite amusements was to recount the number of acres, amount of population, size of the church, and weight of the tenor bell of every parish in the county, which he would do without making a mistake. It was the wish of some individuals well known to the poor fellow, and who took an interest in his behalf, to have assisted him. But his wandering habits were such, that to fix him to any place was impossible; and from his idiotic obstinacy, he had latterly contracted such dirty ways, that it was found the only place he could be taken in at was the workhouse. His death was

accelerated by his leaving the house, during the late severe winter, and sleep. ing in barns, &c. but in his last days he has been kindly treated, until death put an end to his sufferings.

An irresistible impulse induced him to exchange the law for the church, and for this purpose he repaired to Wadham college, Oxford, where he graduated M.A. July 8, 1796, B. and D.D. on the 16th of the same month. In 1781 he took possession of the vicarage of Shirley, and rectory of Brailsford, in the county of Derby, the presentation to which had been purchased by his father, with whom he afterwards resided for some years at Wellington, performing, gratuitously, the duty of curate of that parish.
