DEATHS.

JANUARY.

1. In Warwick square, after a long illness, Mr. Charles James Letterman, of the firm of Scatcherd and Letterman, aged 56.

2. In Parliament-street, Westminster, in his 61st year, John Mills, esq. He died very suddenly while sitting at breakfast, and was discovered a corpse by his servant who entered the apartment with a newspaper. The

medical men who were called in, were of opinion, that his death was occasioned by an enlargement of the heart. The rev. Phillip Douglas, D.D. master of Corpus Christi college, Cam

bridge, and vicar of Gedney, in the county of Lincoln, aged 63.

4. At his seat at Buscot-park, near Tarington, Berks, in the 72nd year of his age, Edward Loveden Loveden, LL.D. of the university of Oxford, F.R.S. and F.A.S. and likewise a member of several other useful or scientific societies. He had, until within the last year or two, enjoyed firm and almost uninterrupted good health.

5. In his 90th year, John Chapman, esq. of Whitley, Yorkshire.

9. At Exeter, after a protracted and painful illness, George Daniell, M.D. for many years an eminent medical practitioner in that city, senior physician of the Devon and Exeter hospital, and one of the physicians of the Lunatic asylum.

Aged 64, Percival Lewis, esq. He was son of Ed. Lewis, esq. of Downton, co. Radnor, M.P. for the borough of Radnor. Being educated for the bar, he became a member of the society of Lincoln's-inn, and attended the Welch circuits, before his marriage with Miss Cray, a lady of fortune. He then quitted the profession of the law, and accepted a commission in the North Hants militia, in which he commanded a company several years: on retiring from the regiment, he sat down at a beautiful cottage near Lymington (now the residence of sir John P. Dalrymple, bart.), and there he passed nearly twenty of the latter years of his life. He was in the commission of the peace for Hampshire. In 1811, he published, "Historical Inquiries concerning Forests and Forest Laws, with Topographical remarks on the

Ancient and Modern State of the New Forest;" a work which was well received, and of which he was encouraged to undertake a revision for a second edition, having collected materials for that purpose. He was a man of engaging manners, and of a convivial disposition. By his wife, who died some years since, he had five sons, four of whom are living. He had for some time held the offices of recorder for St. Alban's, and of agent for New Brunswick.

11. At Worthing, Sussex, aged 89, Benjamin Hawes, esq. brother to the late Dr. W. Hawes, the founder of the Royal Humane Society. This truly

charitable man was a most liberal con

tributor to that excellent institution, and a warm advocate for the abolition of the slave trade. By his will he bequeathed 1,000l. each to twenty four different charities. He expired in a fit which seized him whilst he was taking his usual daily walk abroad; but a man whose whole life had been employed in acts of beneficence and religion was well prepared for death, however suddenly it might approach.

In Russell-place, Mrs. Tennent, relict of W. Tennent, esq. late of Stanmore, Middlesex, and of Pool, Lanarkshire.

At Newport, Herefordshire, in his 44th year, Thomas Foley, esq. eldest son of the late hon. Andrew Foley, member for Droitwich, and for many years one of the representatives for the county of Hereford.

At Otley, aged 83, in consequence of mortification, Samuel Moody, shoemaker. For some time he had been afflicted with extreme pain in his left leg, in consequence of a severe sprain; and about two months ago the leg separated above the ancle with a report like a pistol, and fell completely from the body.

12. At Louth, aged 71, William Morris, a rat-catcher. A few days before he went out to destroy vermin; and, as usual, took a box containing some poisonous article which he used in his vocation, in his pocket, in which also he incautiously put a small fruit pie. The latter he took out and ate upon the road; but the lid of his box not being sufficiently secure, a part of the poison had, without his knowing it, fallen out upon the surface of the pie. Medical aid was resorted to as soon as the accident was discovered; but the poor fellow's sufferings terminated in death, after ten days of excruciating agonies.

13. At Hartney Wintney, Hants, Sarah Down, daughter of Thomas Husband, esq.

At Boulogne-sur-Mer, Mrs. Yeo, mother of the late sir James Lucas Yeo, K.C.B. &c.

At York-place, Clifton, Jane, sister of the late sir Herbert Mackworth, bart. of Gnoll-castle, Glamorganshire.

At Denne-park, Horsham, Sussex, Mrs. Eversfield, relict of the late W. Eversfield, esq. of that place, and of Catsfield, in the same county.

14. Franz Kobell, an artist of great

celebrity for his beautiful landscape drawings. It was the delightful scenery of the Rhine which first inspired him with a feeling for the charms of nature, and he assiduously employed himself in sketching its rich and varied beauties. Having thus followed the impulse of his talent, he, together with his brother Ferdinand, who had already gained much reputation by his etchings, was taken into the service of the elector Charles Theodore; by whom he was sent, in 1776, to study at Rome; where he continued till 1785, studying the beauties of Italian landscape. His pictures in oil are very few, perhaps altogether not more than a dozen, but his drawings with the pen, with which he sketched very rapidly, amount to not fewer than 10,000. He also studied architecture successfully, and the crown prince of Bavaria has a collection of several hundred designs by him.

15. At his seat, Gilston-park, in his 86th year, W. Plumer, esq. M.P. for Higham Ferrers, and formerly representative for the county of Hertford in eight successive parliaments.

In Argyle-street, Georgina Harriet, youngest daughter and co-heiress of the late George Colebrooke, esq. of Crawfurd Douglas, lieut.-colonel of the first Somerset militia, and granddaughter of the late sir George Colebrooke, bart.

16. At Wallingford, the rev. Edw. Barry, M.D. and D.D. in the 63rd year of his age. He was the son of Dr. Barry, a physician of Bristol, and was originally intended for the profession of physic. After the usual course of study, he graduated at St. Andrew's; but the bent of his mind being directed to divinity, he made himself master of the principal Orthodox and Calvinistical divines. Having compared their arguments, he took orders, and warmly espoused the sound principles of the church of England. He was several years curate of Maryle-bonne, and was considered as one of the most popular preachers in the metropolis. He united zeal and knowledge was energetic and persuasive; and most of the public charities in London were highly benefitted by his exertions in their favour.—From the busy scenes of the metropolis, he was invited by the call of friendship
