nal of a Tour to Corsica in the Year 1766. With a Series of Original Letters from General Paoli to the Author, referring to the principal Events which have taken place in that Island, from the Year 1769 to 1802. With Explanatory Notes, 1804." 13. An octavo volume of "Occasional Sermons and Charges," 1805; most of which had before appeared in separate and detached publications; a form in which they were likely to be preserved only in the collections of the curious; but they will now make a part of every wellchosen theological library. [The volume contains 18 Sermons, delivered at various places, and chiefly on public occasions, between the years 1764 and 1782; four Charges to the archdeaconry of Leicester; a Petition from the Clergy of that archdeaconry (proposed, but not accepted) on the Slave Trade, 1788; and a Letter to the Clergy on the same subject, 1792.] 14. "The Sin and Danger of Schism, considered in a Charge (intended to be) delivered to the Clergy of the archdeaconry of Leicester, at the summer visitation in 1811," 8vo. (See our vol. LXXXI. part ii. page 149.) - Dr. Burnaby's Sermons and Charges are excellent compositions, as well in a literary point of view, as in their able support of our present religious establishment; and in his Travels, which have reached a third edition, he relates what he saw, with great fidelity.

On the 16th, ten days after the decease of her venerable husband, aged 76, Mrs. Burnaby, dau. and heiress of John Edwyn, esq. of Bagrave, co. Leic. In the performance of the most extensive charities, and of every Christian duty, towards her fellow-creatures, she most cordially co-operated, for more than 40 years, with her beloved husband; and their mutual and earnest desire that they might not long be separated by death, has now been granted them by the mercy of their Creator.

March 13. In Old Burlington-street, the Fari of Uxbridge, Lord Lieutenant of the counties of Anglesea and Stafford, Keeper of the castle of Caernarvon, Ranger of Snowden forest, and Vice-admiral of North Wales, Pembrokeshire, and Carmarthen

shire. His death was hastened by an unlucky event a few days before. Two of his servants were helping him to walk, and one of them quitted his Lordship's arm to shut the door; the other servant had not strength to sustain his master singly: they both fell, and one of the Noble Lord's ribs was broken.-His Lordship was born June 18, 1744, and married, April 11, 1767, Jane, eldest daughter of Arthur Campugne, Dean of Clonmacrois, Ireland, by whom he had a numerous family. His lordship has left 20,000l. to Sir A. Paget; 10,000%. to each of the rest of his offspring, except Lord P. to whom he has left the bulk of his fortune. He is succeeded in his titles and honours, by his eldest son, Henry William Lord Paget.

March 19. At Wimbledon, in his 77th year, Mr. Horne Tooke, of whom we shall give memoirs in a future page.

Vol. LXXXI. Part ii. p. 490. The late Dr. Reynolds will ever be remembered with the greatest respect, by all who had the happiness of knowing and appreciating his private worth and experiencing his professional skill and beneficence. To the most polished manners, and gentleness of disposition, were united the liberal qualities which form the friend, the scholar, and the gentleman. To his family his loss is irreparable, and to those who enjoyed his society a very severe one. Memoirs of him shall be presented to our Readers hereafter.

P. 666. The absurd fancy of Sir N. Holland, formerly Dance, perhaps should not be unnoticed. He endeavoured to destroy every memorial of his having been a painter, by getting up every portrait he could obtain. The late Mr. Dummer gave his estates to his wife (the now widow of Sir N. Holland) for her life, remainder to the late William Chamberlaine, esq. solitor to the Treasury. His son will enjoy them after his lady's death.

P. 667. Mr. Tessier some years ago purchased Woodcote at Epsom, which had been the seat of Lord Baltimore, and resided there till his death.
