We most sincerely hope that his wishes 
may be fully verified, and that the fol- 
Jowing apostrophe has not been addressed 
by him in vain: 
© Some tokens of a life not wholly pass’d 
Ta selfish strivings or ignoble sloth, 
Haply there may be found when I am gone, 
Which may dispose fair candour to discern 
Some merit in my zeal, and let my works 
Outlive the maker, who bequeaths them to 
thee 5

Thy praise begins, and few there be who 
weave 
Wreaths for the poet’s brow, till he is laid 
Low in his narrow dwelling with the worm.” 
Mr. C. has left, we believe, five 
children, and about sixteen grand-child- 
ren, to bewail his loss, and respect his 
memory. Of four boys, two perished in 
the service of their country, and two 
still remain; one of these, Richard, edu- 
cated at Cambridge, is a captain in the 
navy, and another a_barrack-master. 
One of his daughters, as has already been 
said, married the brother of the Duke of 
Portland; another became the wife of a 
man of fortune, and a third, with whom 
he lived, was united to a German officer,
