 Calais and Boulogne, returning to England in October 1846. 

 In the spring of 1852 he again embarked from Hull for Norway 

 and Sweden ; after travelling through which countries for a few 

 months, he returned to England. This was the last journey he 

 made, otherwise than by paying occasional visits to Boulogne and 

 Bath. During the last few years most of his time was spent be- 

 tween "Windsor and London, while at the former place secluding 

 himself completely from all society, occupying himself wholly in 

 writing the account of his later travels and an autobiography, and 

 thereby so materially injuring his health that after a short illness 

 of four or five days he died, July 28th, 1857, in the 71st year of 

 his age. He became a Eellow of the Linnean Society in 1826, and 

 of the Boyal Society in the following year. As many among us 

 can bear testimony, he was a most cheerful and agreeable com- 

 panion, full of information and anecdote on a great variety of 

 subjects ; and these qualities are so conspicuously displayed in 

 the published Narratives of his Travels, that it is earnestly to be 

 hoped that those of later date may also ere long be given to the 

 world.

 ross in the county of Perth, where he died on the 1st of the present 

 month, after a long illness, at the age of 81. 



Sir George Magrath, M.D., G.JB., K.H., Sfc, entered the Navy 

 at an early age as an Assistant Surgeon, and was present in that 

 capacity on board the Theseus at the evacuation of Eort Matilda, 

 Guadaloupe, in the year 1794. As Surgeon of the Eussell he took 

 part in the action oiF Camperdown in 1797, and was appointed
