After a long and most painful illness, John Elwes, esq. of Fingest Grove, co. Bucks, and Portman square, London. He was one of the two sons of the late muchrespected member for Berks, whose eminent and singular nobleness of mind, as well as his immense property, he jointly with his brother inherited. And here we cannot but notice the ungrateful and unjust history of his life which was published. Ungrateful, we say, because the author was entirely bred up, protected, and fed at his table and unjust, because his many virtues were unnoticed. The few foibles of his patron were exaggerated, which a generous and independent mind would have committed with his body to the grave.

The gentleman, whose death we deplore, died as he lived,-planning and promoting the welfare and happiness of others. His bequests of charity, therefore, are many and great. To all his old and faithful domestics, independencies for life; to his acquaintances and friends, tokens of regard and friendship; and as every honest man who has property to dispose of ought to do, he has given and bequeathed the whole of his immense property (after paying all legacies and charitable bequests to the different parishes in which he had property), to his two children, to the amount, as is supposed, of 500,000l. and upwards!

At Washingborough, Lincolnshire, Rev. F. Massingberd, rector of that parish, and prebendary of Lincoln.

April 15. At Bath, in his 73d year, Rt. Hon. Sir A. Thomson, Lord Chief Justice of his Majesty's Court of Exchequer. He was in point of years the Father of the Bench, having sat as one of the Judges many years longer than any of its present occupants. His reputation as a Judge was of the highest order, in point of legal knowledge, of perspicuity, and strict integrity of decision.-A few years back the longevity of our judges was proverbial, and a vacancy on the bench was a rare occurrence. Death, however, has lately made a great sweep in a quarter which he had previously so much spared. He has taken away not only Heath, Rooke, Grose, Ashhurst, and others of the old school, and lastly, Chief Baron Thomson; but also made free with their junior brethren before their ermine had lost its freshness. Chief Baron Thomson was the intimate friend of Lord Thurlow, by whom his talents were highly esteemed. April 17. In Langham-place, William Price, esq. formerly Equerry to the King, and Vice Chamberlain to the Queen. April 18. At Mauldslie Castle, in his 60th year, the Right hon. Thomas Carmichael, Earl of Hyndford. He succeeded his cousin James in the Earldom, Dec. 21, 1787. The greater part of his time was devoted to agricultural pursuits at Westra, and to the embellishment of his princely seat at Mauldslie. He was one of the most skilful farmers in a district particularly distinguished for the excellence of its farming. Mauldslie, his patrimonial inheritance, is now separated from the Hyndford estate. It has fallen to his Lordship's sister, Mrs. Nisbet of Carfin. Sir John Anstruther, bart. suceeeds to the entailed estate. The title is extinct.

In Litchfield-street, Soho, Mr. Andrew Thompson, aged 72.

April 22. At his friends at Worcester, in the bloom of life, after a severe illness during many months of a pulmonary disease, to the sincere regret of his acquaintauce, and the heartfelt affliction of his young family and relatives, the Rev. John Wail, M. A. rector of Qua Wolstaston and Stoke St Milburgh, ço. Salop, younger son of the late Col. Wali of Tewkesbury Lodge, co. Gloucester, and grandson of the late celebrated and truly benevolent John Wall, late of Worcester, M. D.

At Ashted, near Birmingham, in his 68th year, Mr. Francis Wheeley.

P. 189, a. The late Francis Gosling, Esq. was a character whose definition is comprehended in "Humani Generis Decus." The Gentleman and the Scholar, of refined, elegant, suavity of manners; of liberality of heart and hand, of diffusive charity to an extent proverbial. Thus shone his character expanded to the world. In his domestic scene, the sacred depôt of tender and endearing sensibilities, he was the perfection of example, conjugal and paternal. The lenient hand of Time can alone be looked to to sooth the affliction of that suffering circle. They have, however, to enjoy in alleviation the Epicurism in reflection, that his memory and meritorious deeds will be perennially vital. When such a man is called to Heaven by the fiat of his Maker, he leaves a void on earth rarely ever filled by commensurate aggregate of moral virtues. S.
