Vol. LXXVII. p. 532, b. 1. 30, for "crochets," read "crockets."

P. 535,1.37,"abame" (printed "borne *", in vol. XXXIX. p. 350, b.) is probably "browne," or "auburn."

P. 598, b. 1. 29, for "Kezlia," read "Kezia."

P. 1093, b, l. 9, read "Ermland yarn.' P. 1169. We are forry to learn, that the Additions to the Article which (in p. 984) records the death of the late worthy Rector of Whitechapel, are incorrect, in the age, Chriftian name, times of taking his degrees, and of being prefented to the Northamptonshire Rectory; and of the probable cause of his death. The fuppofed Corrections were from a Correfpondent who, we are certain, intended nothing like difreSpect; but who was led into fome part of the miftakes by a too hafty glance at the Lift of Oxford Graduates. We should have been glad if Mr. S. had enabled us to ftate more than that Mr. Robert Wright took the degree of M. A. in 1772.

DEATHS.

1807. T Seringapatam, of a fever July 21. and bowel complaint, which he bore with manly and Chriftian fortitude, Capt. Robert Barclay, of the 2d Battalion 5th Regiment Native Infantry, and attached to the 1ft Battalion of Pioneers. With excellent natural and acquired talents, this gentleman preferved a warm and friendly heart. As an officer, the uniform fuccefs of his efforts, on every occafion where they were called in the field, beft fpeak to his merit; and as a valuable member of fociety, the univerfal forrow excited by his lofs fufficiently establishes, for the confolation of his relatives, this certainty, that, as he lived beloved, fo has he died deeply regretted. Oct. 27. At the Cape of Good Hope, Andrew Barnard, efq. fecretary to that Colony; a fituation which he had filled, with great credit, from the commencement of Lord Macartney's government, in 1797, till the reftoration of the colony to Holland by the Peace of Amiens, and to which he was again appointed by the late Miniftry, under the government of Lord Caledon. Mr. B. was fon of the late Dr. Barnard, Bishop of Limerick, in Ireland, and married Lady Anne Lindfay, fitter to the Earl of Balcarras, and to the Countefs of Hardwicke, who furvives him. He was a gentleman juftly refpected and efteerned by the whole Colony..

30. At Surinam, David Hay, efq. of the Cuftoms there.

Nov. 1. On the island of Dominica, in the West Indies, Thomas, youngest son of Mr. Thomas Wilmot, builder, of Temple-street, Briftol.

In Portland, Jamaica, of the yellow fever, Mrs. M. Prince, wife of Thomas P. jun. efq. of that island, and grand-daughter of the late Sir Chriftopher Hales, bart. 3. At Kingston, in the island of St. Vincent, William-Hall Durham, efq. barrifter-at-law there.

7. At Rome, in her 67th year, the celebrated female Artift, Angelica Kauffman. She was a friendly agreeable woman, her countenance expreffing no genius, but great good-nature. By indefatigable induftry and good fortune the acquired a property of two hundred thoufand dollars, which he has left to a relation, whom the had fent for from Germany to attend her. Her houfe difplayed much tafte. A hall, which is quite full of ftatues and bufts, conducted to her apartment, where he had a choice little col

lection of antient paintings, carefully protected by filk coverings. Among these was a St. Jerome, which, according to her account, was by Leonardo da Vinci. Among fome fine heads by Vandyke and Rembrandt, hung her own portrait, by Sir Jofhua Reynolds, and well known by the engraving executed by Bartolozzi; but age had entirely effaced all fimilarity between it and the original. The following are the principal performances which this induftrious Artist had by her at the time of her deceafe: "The Prophet Nathan leading David to exprefs his Opinion of the rich Man who had robbed his poor Neighbour of his only Sheep," and exclaiming "Thou art the Man!" The fi

gures are as large as life; Nathan's head very fine, and replete with manly dignity. This, without difpute, was the beft of her hiftorical pieces. She fucceeded in giving David a fomewhat majeftic but yet ambiguous phyfiognomy, exactly fuch as the pious King may be supposed to have had. He starts, and drops with terror the harp on which he is playing; but his motion appears in the picture rather a fhrug of the shoulders than a ftart. For the reft, this picture is in her ordinary manner, pleafing and elegant. Her "Hagar and Ifhmael" appears to be far inferior in me rit; Hagar feems engaged in a cold and ceremonious converfation with the Angel, whofe extended arm is evidently faulty. In heroic fubjects she was totally deftitute of energy. "The Departure of Coriolanus," a fcene from the French Tragedy of that title, is reprefented with great elegance. Her picture of "Three Girls finging from Notes" is very pleafing, Subjects of that kind feemed to fuit her talents. Her forte appeared, however, to lie in portraits; and perhaps females are beft adapted to this branch of the art; for they have received from Nature a fufceptibility to feize and exprefs every trait of the countenance, and every peculiar gef

ture.

It is a gift with which, as the weapon of the weaker fex, Nature has evidently provided them. The whole-length "Portrait of a Scotch Nobleman," in the picturesque habit of his nation, particularly attracted the eye. Befide him is a lovely boy, completely naked, reprefenting Bacchus; but, unfortunately, extremely faulty. In fome other portraits, in which the had confined herself to the heads, she had been uncommonly fuccefsful. Among the reft there was an unfinished one of "Canova the Statuary." She had been in England fome years, and was, at an early period of the Royal Academy, elected an Academician. The late Mr. Alderman Boydell published a great number of engravings, by different Artifts, after her works. Amongst these were,

"The

The Flight of Paris and Helen;" "Venus prefenting Helen to Paris;" "The Judgment of Paris;" "Papirius Prætextatus;" "Achilles lamenting the Death of Patroclus;" and "Penelope awakened by Euryclea;" all of which were engraved by that excellent but unfortunate Artift, Ryland. He also engraved the picture of "Queen Eleanor fucking the Poifon out of the Wound of her Husband, King Edward, in the Holy Land," after this Artift; a companion to it, of "Lady Elizabeth Grey imploring Edward IV. for her Hufband's Lands ;" and her fine painting of "Venus Regina." Her portraits of the "Duchefs of Richmond," and of "General Stanwix's Daughter," were alfo engraved by Ryland. Befides thefe, the Alderman alfo published engravings from feveral other Hiftorical Subjects by Angelica; as, "Ariadne abandoned by Thefeus;" "Ulyffes difcovering Achilles;" "The Parting of Calypfo and Ulyffes;" "Achilles difcovered by Ulyffes;" "Hector reproaching Paris," &c. &c. &c. She painted for the Shakspeare, published by Boydell, two pictures; the one reprefenting "Valentine, Protheus, Silvia, and Julia, in the fifth act of "The Two Gentlemen of Verona," and the other, "Diomed, Creffida, Troilus, and Ulyffes," in the fifth act of "Troilus and Creffida." These were engraved by Schiavonetti in the dotted manner, a ftyle of engraving which has done more to destroy the beauty of that excellent art than any other thing which could have been devised; the ftroke or line engraving being the only branch which can produce that effect which Hiftorical Subjects fo much require; and which a work, under the direction of the Rev. Edward Fofter, intituled "The British Gallery of Engravings," has recently and happily for the Arts in this country fhewn that that ftyle does not want Artifts in London to execute it, if proper encouragement be fhewn them. Angelica alfo painted a great number of fancy fubjects, particularly in ovals and circles; forms in which the feemed to delight; but which, probably, were the means of confining her powers in a narrower compass than might other wife have been the cafe. Alderman Boydell published upwards of 60 plates from fubjects painted by her. Angelica had refided at Rome fome years, juftly known and juftly celebrated. The illnefs which preceded her diffolution was long and painful, but it was fuftained with pious fortitude and exemplary refignation. In Rome, where the love of the Arts is the fole fentiment that has furvived the fhipwreck of its glory, the death of this diftinguished perfon caufed an univerfal fenfation. People of all ranks were emulous

to teftify their refpe&t for her memory. Her funeral obfequies were performed with decorous pomp, and with more than ufual folemnity. Several of the Nobility, more than one hundred Ecclefiafticks in the habits of their feveral orders, and the Members of all the Literary Societies at Rome, walked in the proceffion. The pall was fupported by young ladies, dreffed in white; and immediately after the body fome of her beft pictures were displayed, borne on the shoulders of the mourners. J.S. 8. At his eftate, Dumbarton, Jamaica, William Redwar, efq. eldeft fon of the late Henry R, efq. of Spanish-town, Jamaica.

34. At Bridge-town, Barbados, of the yellow fever, Nevile Fane, efq. of his Majefty's frigate Blonde, fifth fon of the late Hon. Henry F. of Fulbeck, co. Lincoln.

25. At St. John's, Antigua, after a few days illnefs, Major-gen. C. Archer, commander of the troops there.

Dec... At Boughton, near Coxheath, in Kent, Michael Reemes, a poor man. He went out for the purpose of getting fome beer, to give his family a Chriftmas treat, when, the night being very dark, he miftook his way, fell over the cliff, and was literally dashed to pieces.

Dec. 7. Mr. S. C. Edwards, distiller, of Redcliff-ftreet, Briftol.

19. At Hillerfdon, near Collumpion, Devon, D. Sweet, efq.

23. At Kinfauns, near Perth, aged 86, Andrew Hall, kirk officer, beadle, or fexton of that parish. He fucceeded his father, or, in his own words, came to the poft in the year 1742; and it is a circumftance not only remarkable but unequaled in the Hiftory of the Church of Scotland, that his grandfather, father, and himfelf, held that office, in regular fucceffion, for upwards of 160 years.

24. A Coroner's Inqueft was this day held at Langham, Rutland, on the body of Richard Stacy, a mafon, who was found drowned in a well near his house. A few days before, he had abfconded from his wife and family, leaving them to battle with the world for fubfiftence as they beft could, and enlifted himself into the Militia at Leicester. A compunctious feeling, however, for the unprotected fate in which he had left his family, is fuppofed to have occafioned his return to Langham: arriving at the door of his houfe, and overpowered by a fenfe of his unworthiness, in a moment of delirium he threw himself headlong into his well, and was taken out lifeless.

25. Suddenly, Jofeph Gerard, of Pleafington, near Blackburn. He had fupped with the family on mufcles the night preceding his death, and retired to bed apparently well; he awoke about four o'clock in the morning, in the greatest agony,

and

and was a corpfe by five. An inqueft was held on the occafion the following day, for the purpofe of afcertaining the caufe of this fudden catastrophe; when the attending Surgeon depofed, that, in his opinion, the death of the deceafed was owing to the muscles he had ate the night before; this teftimony was corroborated by other witneffes, and alfo by the fymptoms which ufually accompany thofe who are what is generally called MUSCLE STUNG. It is well known, that difagreeable effects frequently attend the eating of this fpecies of fish; and it is obfervable, that this diforder operates on fome individuals oftener than on others, owing to an idiocrafy of conftitution. Perfons thus affected ought to abftain from fleep till the fymptoms fubfide; for it is probable that the noxious effects produced by the ́ fish act with much greater force on the fyftem during the time of fleep than when awake. The moft efficacious remedy for the removal of this troublesome disease is an emetick early administered.

At the family refidence, at Goytre, in Monmouthshire, aged 21, Maria, wife of Henry Witherington, efq. and daughter of the late Col. Bird.

26. At Scampling-houfe, where fhe was for the benefit of fea-bathing, Mifs Blake, only daughter of Daniel B. efq. of Hamels-park, Herts.

27. This evening, the body of a welldreffed woman was picked up by a waterman, while floating in the Thames, below Chelsea. On being conveyed to the shore, a guinea, a feven-fhilling-piece, and fome filver, were found in her pockets, with a pocket-book, which led to a knowledge of her laft abode. The name of Sarah-Anne Warburton was written on the infide of the book, with an addrefs in Crown-street, Westminster. It was afcertained that the deceafed had left her fervice, as a lady's maid in a family in Gloucefter-place, on the 14th, to go, on the 16th, to another in Sloane-street, Chelfea, but had not fince been heard of. From the appearance of the body, it had been feveral days in the water.

28. At his houfe at Clontarf, near Dublin, after a lingering and painful illness, the Hon. Richard Gore, fecond fon of Arthur, late Earl of Arran, and brother to the present Earl of Arran. His eftates devolve to his only fon, Arthur Gore, efq. He had been many years a member of the Irish Parliament, for the borough of Donegal, where his conduct was marked by difinterefted patriotifm. He had vifited moft of the Courts of the Princes of the Continent; and he neglected no .opportunity of ftoring his mind with the moft ufeful information. He was followed to the grave by a great number

[ocr errors]

of moft refpectable friends and relations, who, by their perfonal attendance, and long train of equipages, feemed defirous to evince their refpect and regret.

30. After a fhort illness, aged 82, the Rev. Nathan Wetherell, D. D. dean of Hereford, mafter of Univerfity college, Oxford (to which he was elected in 1764), and prebendary of Westminster.
