DEATHS.

Nov. 21. At his seat, at Highbury in Kent, in the 74th year of his age, Abraham Newland, Esq. Cashier of the Bank of England for upwards of 30 years. Mr Newland was the son of a baker in Southwark; and he owed the conspicuous situation he held in the Bank to his own perseverance and unremitting attention to his pursuits.

Mr Newland died worth 200,0001. in stock, besides 1000l. per annum arising from estates. He has disposed of it in the following manner :

To Mr Henry Hase, now Chief CashierMr Rippon, Second Cashier-Mr Attwood-Mr Bross, 500l. each as Execu

700 ditto L.10,000

Mr Attwood To each of the family of the Goldsmids, eight in number, 500l. to purchase a ring.

To the Gentlemen belonging to the Chief Cashier's Office, twenty in number, from 301. to 1001. each, with about two exceptions.

To the porters of the Bank and Lodge, from 101. to 50l. each; and to the domestics of the deceased's household, the like sums.

The residue of the property is left a mongst the relatives of the deceased, who are in needy circumstances. Amongst them is a Chelsea pensioner, who, during the life of Mr Newland received 501. per annum, has been left 1001. a-year. A farmer's servant at Hornsey, who did not partake of Mr Newland's bounty during his life, has been left 300 per annum.

At Glasgow, aged 84, Mrs Shortridge, relict of John Shortridge, Esq. merchant there.

At Dublin, in the 105th year of his age, Mr Thomas French.

23. At Kinfauns, near Perth, in the 87th year of his age, Andrew Hall, kirk-officer, beadle, and sexton of that parish. He succeeded his father, or, in his own words, came to the Post in the year 1742; and it is a circumstance not only remarkable, but probably unequalled in the history of the Church of Scotland, that his grandfather, his father, and himself, held that office, in regular succession for the long period of 160 years. Andrew was originally a tailor; but, after he became an office-bearer in the church, he relinquished that trade, and became a fisherman on the Tay, working as a gardener or labourer when not employed on the water. He was distinguished by his ardent attachment to the interests of our present Royal Family. During the rebellion in 1745, having refused to paste upon the door of the kirk some treasonable advertisement, he was taken into custody by a party of the Highland army stationed at Burnfoot, and detained for several days as a prisoner. Pretending inability to read the paper, he was soon after liberated; and Andrew used, in his old age, to relate the unshaken firmness with which he bore his confinement, as well as the address by which he at last effected his escape, as no small proof of his bravery and wisdom.He bore all the marks of a genuine gravedigger; and may be considered as the last, in this part of the country, of the old school of beadles. His uniform conduct afforded a striking proof of the effects of habit. It was his regular practice, after every funeral, to adjourn with some companions to a public house, where he spent the whole earnings of his mournful duties. Upon the interment of his first wife, which happened after an union of half a century,

and after lamenting to his kindred and neighbours the irreparable loss he had sus tained, he was observed, by some involuntary impulse, to bend his course to the u sual place of resort; and as the occasion was no doubt doubly afflicting, he regaled himself and revived his spirits by a double dose of the best. It is generally understood that his widow will succeed to the vacant office; but his youngest son John, now in his 63d year, who is well known, at all the country weddings in the neighbourhood, as a musician of considerable eminence, is likewise a candidate; and his pretensions, doubtless, are supported by very strong hereditary claims.

24. At Paris, Madame La Fayette. She was the daughter of the Duke d'Ayen, son of Marshal De Noailles, and wife of the famous General La Fayette.

25. At Edinburgh, Miss Elizabeth Ro. bertson, daughter of the late Robert Robertson, Esq of Tully belton

26. At Montrose, aged 46, James Glegg, surgeon in the Royal Navy, son of Adam Glegg, Esq. late merchant in Montrose.

Lately, on her passage from Lisbon, the infant daughter of the Earl of Westmoreland.

February 10. At London, Murrough Marquis of Thomond. His Lordship was riding, attended by a groom, in Grosvenor Square, when his horse taking fright, got upon the pavement, where he fell, and precipitated the Marquis with violence inte the horse way, where a waggon cart coming hastily by, one of the wheels ran over the body. He was taken into Lord Blandford's house, where he expired in about half an hour. His Lordship was in his 85th year, and was married to Miss Palmer, niece of Sir Joshua Reynolds, but had no issue. His Irish title, the Marquisate of Thomond, descends, with his estates, to his Lordship's nephew, Captain O'Brien.

11. At Sandhills, the Rev. John M'Millan, in the 79th year of his age, and the 59th of his ministry.

of

of the 80th regiment, Receiver General of the Duchy of Cornwall, and one of the Prince of Wales's Council of State. His Lordship was taken ill about three days before, (on the 17th) while attending the trial of Gen. Whitelocke, which occasioned the postponement of the trial for two days.His Lordship eminently distinguished himself in his country's cause on the Continent, in Ireland, and, lastly, in the East Indies, where he added greatly to the glory and honour of the British name, and was created a Viscount, and raised to the Peerage on the 31st of October 1807, as a reward to which his merit justly entitled him. He was much attached to, and much esteemed by the Prince of Wales. He is succeeded in his titles and estates by his eldest son (now Viscount Lake,) who was present at the dissolution of his father. His Lordship was, we believe, about sixty years of age, but his constitution was much impaired by the climate of India.

Feb. 21. At London, John Gordon M Kenzie, Esq: surgeon in the Coldstream Guards, aged 30.

11. At Bath, William Siddons, Esq. the husband of the celebrated Mrs Siddons.Though he had been for some time infirm, his death was rather sudden, as he had passed the preceding evening with a party of friends, and appeared to be in good health. Mr Siddons was an estimable man in private life, distinguished for his probity, and an exact performance of all his duties. He had a correct taste for literature, and a ready turn for poetry, which appeared in many loyal and patriotic songs, to which, however, he was too modest to put his name. Mrs Siddons was in Edinburgh at the time, and had performed several nights, when, on receiving the melancholy tidings, she set off for Bath on the 18th.

March
