In Charlotte-street, Bloomsbiiry, 5t, 

 the Rev. H'm. Binglty, f.l.s. author of 

 " Animal Biography," and of several other 

 ingenious works of natural history. Mr. B. 

 was brought up in the law; but prospects 

 of promotion led him to exchange this pro- 

 fession for that of the church. He devoted 

 his leisure from his early years to the study 

 of natural history, and was beginning to 

 acquire a solid reputation at the time when 

 he was cut off by a short illness. The 

 Monthly Magazine was formerly indebted 

 to him for many interesting articles of na- 

 tural history, and particularly for the 

 Monthly Reports, which were continued 

 for several years, and dated " Christ- 

 church," where the author at that time 

 performed parochial duty. 



In Covent Garden, 64, Mr. William Play

 cal and statistical writer, and as a miscel-

 at Birmingham, under whom he became an 

 able philosophical mechanic, and acquired 

 a turn for calculation. This led him to be- 

 come a writer on political economy during 

 the administration of Mr. Pitt, whose mea- 

 sures he espoused. Being in Fran<;e at the 

 commencement of the revolution, he pro- 

 jected a bank of small assignats, which, 

 giving rise to others, the whole were closed 

 by a decree of the government ; and Play- 

 fair, even contrary to his intention, was 

 obliged to retain the money which he had 

 received for his small tickets. He after- 

 wards came to London, and forming a 

 connexion with Mr. Hartsink, a Dutch 

 merchant, they opened a bank on Comhill, 

 for the purpose of dividing large securities
