If this character be faithfully drawn (and that it is, none who knew him will deny,) oh! what a bleifed hope hath that man in his death! and how does it become all ranks, and all ages, but, above all, how does it become those who profess themselves, like him, the minifters of the Gofpel, to emulate his zeal, his charity, his piety, and his humility !"

His disorder was an inflammatory fore throat, which proceeded from a cold, of which he made but little complaint on the 13th. The next morning, about 3 o'clock, he became ill. Dr. Craick attended him in the morning, and Dr. Dick, of Alexandria, and Dr. Brown, of Port Tobacco, were foon after called in. Every medical affistance was offered, but without the defired effect. His aft fcene correfponded with the whole te nor of his life. Not a groan nor a complaint efcaped him, in extreme diftrefs. With perfect refignation, and a full poffefsion of his reafon, he clofed his well-fpent life. His funeral was celebrated with every mark of honour and regret fo justly due to his virtues. The corpfe was interred in the family-vault, in an elevated lawn on the banks of the Potomak..

Aunt Deborah, in "Love in a Village," was another part in which the had no equal. Peevith characters of every kind, kut particularly thofe of antiquated virgi

He was harmless, fond of an immenfe queue wig in full powder, and, mo the laft moment, wore a diamond ring of tolerable water. Thefe are propenfities common to foreigners. He played well on feveral instruments, and particularly excelled on his favourite, the Bute. Early in life, he was fond of pleafure, and used to exult to the latt on his former enjoy. ments; he became fuccesfively a Buck, Odd-fellow, Briton, and at last a Free Mafon. On the good intentions of the latrer he loved to expatiate, but was unable to give good reafons.

He died at 84, in St. Paul's church-yard.

villain. She was an old maiden lady of fingular habits; difpofed to a life of folitade, the kept no fervant, and was only occafionally attended by a chair-woman. Extreme parfimony and avarice were the motives affigued for her eccentric conduct; the was reputed to be fecretly amatling wealth and to this opinion the unfortunately fell a victim. For two or three days previous to the difcovery of her fhocking fate, it was noticed by her neighbours that nobody went into or came out of the houfe; which circumftance exciting their curiosity and apprehenfion, fome of them knocked at the door; and having done fo repeatedly without effect, they barft it open, and after fome research found the unhappy lady dead in the back kitchen, with several marks of favage violence on her body, and her mouth floppe with an handkerchief. The houfe was plundered of every portable article of any value.

From the circumstances above stated, it was thought neceffary to carry the husband before the inqueft; and, from their report, it was further judged expedient that an investigation fhould take place at the of fice in Worship-street. After a very clofe examination, he was informed that nothing appeared to criminate bin, and that therefore he was discharged, but that the magiftrates expected he would appear in cafe they thould again require him, which he very cheerfully promifed. A Jew, who had repeatedly frequented the houfe, was next called; but his account was fo very fatisfactory to the Magistrates, that they declared him by no means implicated in the fhocking charge. Mrs. A. while lying in the agonizing pain which fuch a wound must inflict, uttered, in a fort of fere im, and with peculiar emphafis, "A pot-boy 1 a pot-boy a po:-boy !" three times fucceffively, and with aftonifhing velocity; but, when questioned, relapsed into infenfibility.
