In Scotland Yard, Whitehall, S. Pegge, efq. one of the grooms of his majesty's privy chamber.

Mrs. Sufan Towry, wife of G. P. Towry, efq. of the Victualling Office.

In Dyer's Buildings, Holborn, Mr. Tho. Whittle, fit clerk to the Alderman's Jultice Room, Guildhall; this gentleman united a moft amiable dipoftica, and an excellent heart, to a found and well cultivated underftanding. He has died in the prime of life, poffefied of the esteem of a numerous and difcerning acquaintance.

At his houfe in Harley-ftreet, aged 43, W. Bofanquet, efq. partner in the house of Forfter, Lubbock, and Co. and brother of J. Bofanquet, eiq. one of the bank directors. The unhappy fite of this gentleman holds out another instance of the inftability of Luman happines. In the highest health and ipints,

Le

he had been playing feveral hours with a friend at a game of chefs, when defigning to walk out upon a balcony on the first floor, which had unfortunately been removed a few days before, and which circumstance he had forgotten, he fell to the ground. The confequences were, a diflocation of the fpinal vertebræ of the back, and his death, after the courfe of three days. He married Mifs Ives

of Norwich, and by her has had ten lovely children, all living, two of them twins, but a few months old. Their happiness was a theme of pleafure to all who knew them, and Mr. Bofanquet was not only a most affectionate husband, a moft fund and affectionate father, an excellent fon and brother, but likewife a gentleman of the finest literary attainments. Under all the circumstances of this tragical catastrophe, few accidents of fuch a nature, have been attended with circumftances more deeply affecting.

At Camberwell of a decline, Mr. Stephen Day, partner with Mr.Bunwell, Bedford-street, Covent-garden, aged 39 years. He was diftinguifhed by extraordinary talents for bufinefs, by a clear and difcriminative understanding, unremitting industry, unyielding perfeverance, and active enquiry, joined to the ftricteft integrity and the moft facred regard to truth. He was gentle, friendly and benevolent, exemplary in all the relations of life, and firmly attached to the principles of religion. At twelve years of age he came an errand-boy to Bedford-4 reet, where his good qualities gradually raised him to a share in the bufinefs, in the management of which he had for many years taken a leading part. He has left a wife and one daughter.

Sir Godfrey Webster, Bart. and M.P. for Wareham, in a paroxyfm of phrenzy, he put an end to his existence, by fhooting himself through the head, at his house in Hanoverfquare. Seven thoufind per ann. reverts to Lady Holland, in confequence of the death of Sir Godfrey. That Lady's property produced 17,000 last year, and this year it will produce nothing. The fudden change of fortune is fuppofed to have embarraled Sir Godfrey exceedingly, and together with his domeftic afflictions, to have been the cause of his committing fuicide.

At the age of 83, Mr. Benjamin Kenton, one of the wealthieft citizens of London. He formerly kept a tavern, in Whitechapel; he then became a wine merchant in the Minories, and went very largely into the trade of exporting Porter. By his induftry and frugality he had accumulated a fortune of nearly 300,000l. He has left no immediate defcendant, but one grand-fon, who was but little in his favour. His legacies were as follow: To John Coles . Mr. Till, Executor Mr. Baldwin, ditto Mr. Watts,

Suddenly at his houfe in Bedford-fquare, on the 4th of June, the Hon. Sir Francis Bullet, Bart. in the 55th year of his age, one of the judges of the court of King's-bench. In his death the profeilion has lost a worthy and learned member, one whom it has been faid nature defigned for a lawyer. He was promoted to the dignity of the coif, and elevated to the magisterial bench at a very early period of his age, we believe in a manner unexampled: but this is the age of young men, whether tatefmen, generals, or lawyers. Judge Buller was the fecond fon of James Buller, efq. of Morval, in the county of Cornwall, a representative for that county, by Jane, daughter of Allen, earl Bathurst. The parliamentary intereft of his father was well known, and may very well account for the fon's rapid rife to an eminent rank in his favorite profetiion. After being educated at Winchefter fchool, he entered a member of the Inner Temple, and was called to the bar in Eafter Term 1772. In November 1777 was appointed a King's Counfel, and the 27th of the fame month was made judge of the Chefter circuit. Upon the death of Sir Richard Afton in 1778, he was, at the inftance of Lord Mansfield, made a judge of the Court of King's-bench, which station in June 1794 he refigned on account ill health, and was removed to the court of Common Pleas, from which place we understand he was about to refign alfo; having his Majesty's leave on the fcore of his declining health. His profeffional debut did not in any manner foretel his future elevation, his profpect, except for the extraneous aid abovementioned, appeared as dull as his study at the time, which was that of the fcience of a fpecial pleader. In this he had formafter the prefent judge Afhhurst, who for profeffional erudition has been placed on the highest fcale. If therefore it is become the fashion to make special pleading an introduction to the better part of the profeflion; these two great men may be faid to have established that fashion. Mr. Erskine, after laying down his fword, wielded a pen at this gentleman's defk. The conduct of this diitinguished magiftrate has generally had the air of inflexibility of opinion and fentiment, but it cannot be forgotten that he once wanted that caiminefs and firmnefs which greatly become and adorn the magiftrate, difpenting and explaining law and justice from the bench. It was at the fameus trial of the Dean of St. 4 H

Alaph

Afaph, when after carrying his oppofition to
Mr. Erskine even to threats and commands,
he felt constrained to withdraw them. Mr.
Erskine had put a question to the jury rela-
tive to the meaning of their verdict: Mr.
Juftice Buller objected to its propriety: the
counfei repeated it, and persisted in demanding
an anfwer, the judge again interpofed his
authority in thefe emphaticwords--"Sit down,
Mr. Erikine; know your duty, or I thall be
obliged to make you know it."-Mr. Erikine
with equal animation replied "I know my
duty as well as your lordship knows your's;
Iftand here as the advocate of a fellow citizen
and I will not fit down. The judge after this
remained filent, and the advocate perfifted in
his question. Judge Buller was never in
parliament; his relation, Francis Buller, a
major in the Cornwall Militia, was chofen a
reprefentative for the Borough of Weftlooe,
at the general election in 1762, and this cir-
cumftance has occafioned many mistakes, by
one of thefe perfons being taken for the other.
The political world has loft one of its best
champions in the death of Monfieur Mallet
du Pan, who expired on Saturday, the roth
of May, at the houfe of his intimate friend
the Count de Lally-Tolendal, in Ormond-
place, Richmond, Surry. Soon after his ar-
rival in England, nearly three years ago, he
experienced an alteration in his conftitution,
which he afcribed to the change of climate;
and this indifpofition terminated in that dif-
order, which in this Island appears more in-
exorable than elsewhere, a confumption. He
was born in 1749, at Geneva, that city
which gave birth to the celebrated philosopher
Rouffeau, and the no lefs celebrated financier
Necker, of which republic like many of
his ancestors, he was a citizen. M. Mallet
du Pan,according to the custom of his country-
men, and especially of the Swifs, went
early into the world to feek his fortune, and
fixed upon Paris as the great market on the
continent for talents of every rate: we do
not however hear much of him as a man of
letters till his concern with the Mercure
Francois, a publication of confiderable celebrity
and of which the direction at length fell into
his hands. The leading article in this print
was always understood to be from his own pen,
and in this he fhewed more modefty than the
editors of fimilar publications, in other
countries, for he did not direct the fubject
matter to be difplayed in larger types, or
with leads and fpaces to give it confpicuity,
but had it printed in a fmaller letter than
that which compofed the body of the work.
His conduct on the first burit of the revolu-
tion fhews him to have been little more than
what we in England denominate a Whig, and
a little less than we now understand by the
character of a Tory. In the courfe of this
great political conteft he was often affailed by
thofe whole views and interefts he oppofed, and
through this, and other caufes, he contracted
an acerbity of temper, which no profef-
fions of philofophical moderation and im-
partiality could conceal.
We do not pie-

3

tend to know what was his political profeffion de foi in his last moments; but we may fay, without fear of contradiction, it being known to all anatomists, that by looking too earnestly on an object and then shutting the eye, the figure and form of thobject remains on the retina, but is never thelefs found to affume a different bue. His Mercure Britannique, which he fet up foon after his arrival in England, was difcontinued a fhort time before his deceafe. Its effect as an Anti-jacobin we believe, did not altogether gratify the hopes of its moft fanguine fupporters. In the last literary campaign he made in France, his banner was infcribed with the words les parliamentaires, but on the afcendancy of the Eriffetines he was compelled to retreat from the republic after making a fruitless attempt to rally with the Malouets and Lallys. The political horizon grew more and more cloudy, and the Mercure fell into the hands of Poultier, with whom he has fince had a literary and political quarrel. The new combatant on the fame fide endeavoured to preferve the keen edge of this once powerful weapon, but it was now found too impotent against the numerous literary adverfaries who started up every day: the valor therefore of our modern Patrocles, tho' clad in Achilles' armour, could not terrify his fans culottes enemies, and he was himself, after the memorable 10th of August, obliged to flee from the field of battle. In the next year (1793) Monfieur Mallet du Pan took up his quarters at Bruffels, where he published, Confiderations far a Nature de la Revolution de France, & fur ki Causes que en Prolonge la Durée. Here again he experienced the fate of many great warriors being compelled to fall back upon Holland. At Leyden the next year 1794 he sent another tract from the prefs in the way of a trumpet of Alarm, and called it, Les Dangers qui minacint Europе. His quarters a third time were beaten up, and he took poft at Vienna, where he with more fafety to himself, but with lefs annoyance to the foe, let off feveral political opufcules. In the capital of Germany he was not quite at his cafe, and was befides too far from the fcene of action to wield his pen with full effect. He had fome thoughts of taking up a permanent refidencein Switzerland, near his native place; but Bonaparte occafioned his expulfion with that of a few others, by express defire. London appeared now the only fafe garrifon left for the profecution of his pen-and-ink defence of the old caufe. It is faid that Lewis XVI. when near his end, repofed confidence in him, and once entrusted him with a fpecial commiffion to Germany: he was however far from enjoying the good opinion of those who had been moft about the perfon of that unfortunate monarch. When the partizans. of Royalty were preparing to fly in all directions, thofe who refolved to stay he hind complained of the inefficacy of M. Mallet du Pan's reafoning, which could not keep the fugitives at their pofts. Car remoratur Itures? It must however be acknowledge

Mr.

knowledged, that M. Mallet du Pan has from the commencement of this unexampled conflict, been indefatigable in the employment of his talents, which were unquestionably enviable for their brilliancy and variety. Nor ought we to arraign him for the tendency of his labours, if they were directed, as he affirmed, to the fupport of fecial order and the defence of national rights: for what good citizen would not join in an endeavour to maintain the doctrine of the independency of ftates. If he believed the peace of Europe to be in danger from the machinations of Jacobins, then may he be excufed for his intemperate fallies at times, and for the inveterate hatred he has uniformly manifefted against every act bearing the name or even fufpicion of Jacobiniẩm. Flood, the Irish Orator, fome years ago was called over to England to aid an English oppofition; he failed. M. Mallet du Pan, a Swfs writer, was invited to England alfo to filence the political reformers of the prefent day thofe who allured him here muft have faid with Ulyffes tibi fe peritura rejervant JACOBINS. How happily or fuccefs fully he might have compleared the defign of his coming, had he lived longer, or what share of praife is due to his memory, for what he has actually performed, it is impuilible to fay, because of the number of his well deferving rivals in the task. As a gentleman he was, we believe much refpected, and in nothing can that refpect be more fincerely fhewn than in the provifion now making for his widow and four children, who, as it should feem, are left unprovided for by his death. M. Mallet du Pan has exhibited in the last part of his life one of those fingular circumftance which has fomething para doxical in it: for, tho' born a republican, and bred a protestant, he has been enrolled these ten years paft with thofe fighting for the reftora tion of a Monarchy, and the maintenance of the Roman Catholic Religion. It may be thought not lefs remarkable that M. Mallet du Pan was acquainted with Voltaire in the latter days of that great man's life, and had often expreffed the higheft admiration for his writings. His friend M. Malouet, the celebrated orator in the affemblée conflituente, was with him at his death, and with the following perfons of distinction attended his funeral, viz. The Prince de Poix, formerly captain of the body guards to Louis XV, and Lord Sheffield, pall-bearers. M. Rigaud and his eldest fon, chief mourners. M. Fagel, Greffier to the ftates general of the United Provinces, and the Hon. Mr. Trevor, formerly the British Envoy Extraordinary and Minifter Plenipotentiary at the Court of Turin, Sir John Macpherson, and Mr. Whithead Keene, members of the Houfe of Commons; and the Count de Lally Tolendal, deputy to the ftates general of France in 1789. The Corpfe was followed by two lines of Swifs and Genevefe, and by a confiderable number of English and French gentlemen: among the former were M Baron Maferes, Mr. G Pean, Mr. Ryder, Mr. Reeves, Mr. Bowles.

Mr. John Gifford, Mr. Flint, the Rev. Meffrs. Sparrow, Young and Wollaton. He was buried on Thursday the 14th of May in the New Church Yard, Richmond, and as we are informed several Swifs gentlemen have fignified their intention of erecting an unadorned monument over the grave of their cele brated and eloquent countryman.

[The Rev. Daniel Phillips, of Hapton, in the county of Norfolk, whofe death was announced, page 409, in our Magazine for May, was the fon of the Rev. Daniel Phillips, a diffenting clergyman, who refided at Gwinfryn, near Pullheli, in North Wales. He received his claffical education in the school at Pullheli, from whence he was removed by his father to the academy at Caermarthen. He finished his ftudies with Dr. Latham, who conducted, for many years at Finbern, near Derby, a feminary devoted to the education of young men for the miniftry, amongst Proteftant-diffenters, with diftinguished and deferved reputation. On leaving this academy, Mr Phillips accepted the office of pastor to a fmall congregation. It was here, that he first rejected a very liberal offer in the eftablished church, which was made by a near relation, and which was afterwards repeated, both for himself, and with a view to his fon. On these occafions, he might have exchanged the narrow income of five and thirty pounds per annum, which he received as a minister among the diffenters, for two hundred and fifty in the established church; but he coule not conform, with an approving confcience. He had the greater merit in relinquishing all profpect of preferment in the church, on ac count of his circumftances in life, for he had a young and numerous family; and when the patronage of his friend was preffed upon him for the last time, he had loft the greater part of his wife's fortune by a bankrupt. From Ripley, Mr. Philips removed to Eaftwood, and afterwards to Sowerby, in Yorkshire, where he officiated at minifter, more than forty years. On the death of Dr. Stanton, he was appointed fucceffor to that gentleman, at Hapton. Here he spent in retirement and independance, the last twelve years of his life. He was a man of confiderable `talents, both as a fcholar and a divine. His knowledge of the Latin and Greek languages in particular, was extenfive; the former he could both write and fpeak with elegance and fluency, and after he had paffed his feventieth year, his correspondence with his fon was often carried on in that language. He was much refpected in his neighbourhood by churchmen, as well as by diffenters; for his feparation from the establishment originated not in party principles, but in the conviction of his own mind; and while he exercised the right of private judgment for himself, he allowed and maintained that right to its greatest extent, on behalf of others. He died at the advanced age of 84; and, till his lat illness, which was lingering and painful, had been rarely prevented from fulfilling the du ties of his profeffion.]
