created vifcount Wentworth of Whellefburgh 1762. He 
died 1774; and was fucceeded by his only Ion, the late 
vifcount Wentworth, who was lord of the manor, and 
patron of the rectory of Kirkby Malory. His lordfhip 
refided at Kirkby-hall, a handfome and commodious man- 
lion, till his death, April 17, 1815, by which the vifcounty 
is extinft. The houfe confifts of many good and comfort¬ 
able apartments, in which are feveral ancient and modern 
family portraits. The library contains a large and excel¬ 
lent collection of books. The offices and (tables are fpa- 
cious and convenient. The ground in the park is plea- 
fan tly diverfified with hill and dale, well wooded with fine 
elms and oaks, and ornamented with a canal of running 
water. Good views of this man (ion are given in Nichols’s 
Hiftory of Leicefterfhire. The church, dedicated to All 
Saints, is neat within, and confifts of an embattled tower, 
furmounted by a light and handfome pinnacle, a long nave, 
and a chancel. The church is well pewed, and has a good 
gallery. The parfonage, a neat houfe, fituated on a beau¬ 
tiful (pot, commanding one of the firieft views in the 
county, was built by the Rev. Clobery Noel; and it was 
altered and enlarged by his fucceffor, the Rev. Rowney 
Noel, D.D. dean of Salilbury. The prefent redor is the 
Rev. Thomas Noel, M. A. The church contains many 
epitaphs, particularly of the Noel family, all of which are 
given in the Hiftory of Leicefterfhire, with a full hiftory 
of the place, and its noble owners; and from which work 
the preceding particulars have been extracted. By the 
return to parliament in 1811, Kirkby Malory contained 
two uninhabited houfes, and fifty-one houfes occupied by 
fifty-three families, (forty-eight of which were employed in 
agriculture, and three in trade, and two not comprifed in 
the preceding clafies,) confiding of 122 males, and 126 
females, total 248. B. N. in Gent. Mag. ad Suppl. 1814.

of Pfkov : twenty-four miles north-eaft of Pfkov.

MALOU'IN (Paul-James), a phyfician and chernift, 
was born in 1701, at Caen, of a family diftinguifhed in 
literature. He pradifed phyfic in the metropolis, where 
he became profeffor of medicine in the royal college, 
and phyfician in ordinary to the queen. His fcientific 
merits gave him a place in the Royal Society of London, 
and the Academy of Sciences at Paris. As a phyfician, 
he had great faith in the principles of his art, and could 
not bear to hear it ridiculed. “ All great men (faid he) 
have honoured phyfic 5” and, when put in mind of Mo- 
liere, “ You fee (he replied) how he died!” Having had 
for a patient'a celebrated man of letters, who recovered 
after obediently taking a great quantity of medicine, he 
embraced him, and faid, “You are worthy to be fick.” 
Malouin pradifed his own precepts, and fubjeded liim- 
felf to a find regimen, by which he attained a healthy 
old age. He was frugal, yet difinterefted ; and, after a 
lucrative pradice in Paris, went to a fmall employment at 
Verfailles, which he called “ retiring to court.” He died 
of an apoplexy, at Paris, in 1778, in the 77th year of his 
age. He left by his will a legacy to the faculty of medi¬ 
cine in that capita), on the condition of their holding 
an annual public aflfembly for the purpofe of giving an 
account to the nation of their labours and dil'coveries. 
Malouin had a great fund of the chemical knowledge of 
his time, which he chiefly applied to the fervice of medi- 
elegant ftyle, and containing many ufeful obfervations 
from his own experiments. 3. Les Arts da Meunier, da 
Boulanger, & du Vermicelier, in the Didionnaire des Arts 
& Metiers, publifhed by the Academy of Sciences. He 
alfo communicated to the Academy an analyfis of the 
waters of Plombieres ; an account of epidemic difeafes at 
Paris; and the (late of the atmofphere from 1746 to 1754. 
A circumftance, which happened at a meeting of the Aca¬ 
demy, does as much honour to his heart as any of his 
works do to his underllanding. A new treatife on the 
art of baking, wherein fome of Maiouin’s ideas (in his 
Art du Boulanger, mentioned above) were combated, was 
read by M. Parmentier before his fellows, among whom 
was the old dodor. The young academician, who knew 
how eafily felf-love is hurt, was afraid to meet his looks : 
but no fooner was the reading finifhed, than Malouin went 
up to him, and embracing him, “Receive my refpeds, 
(faid he;) you have feen farther into the fubjed than I 
did.” 4. He was likewife the author of the chemical ar¬ 
ticles in the Encyclopedic. 
Of the fame family was Charles Malouin, who gra¬ 
duated as a dodor of medicine in the univerfity of Caen, 
and died in 1718, in the flower of his age. He publifhed 
a Treatife on Solids and Fluids, Paris, 1718, 1 2mo.

MALPARTI'DA, a town of Spain, in Eftretnadura: 
two miles fouth-eaft of Placencia. 
MAL'PAS, a market town and parifli, in the county- 
palatine of Chefter. It is fituated on a lofty eminence, at 
a ffiort diftance from the river Dee. The name of this 
place is fuppofed to have been derived from the term 
Mala Platea, illuftrative of the deep, narrow', and intri¬ 
cate, road, by which it was anciently approached ; and 
hence it was called by the Normans Mai Pas, Bad Road. 
The manor was one of the baronies granted, at the time 
of the conqueft, to Hugh Lupus, earl of Chefter, from 
whom the prefent noble family of Cholmondeley is de- 
fcended. The magnificent caftle by which it was adorned 
for feveral centuries, is now fo entirely demolifhed, that 
fcarcely a veftige of it can be difcovered. Three (treets, 
tolerably well built and paved, form the chief part of the 
town. In the church is a vault, appropriated as the bu- 
rying-place of the earls of Cholmondeley, who derive their 
title of vifcount from this town. The living is a rectory, 
and, being very valuable, is divided into two portions, 
fupporting two redors and two curates, though but one 
church. Malpas has a free grammar-fchool and alms- 
houfe, both of which were founded by fir Randle Brere- 
ton. It has a good market on Monday ; and fairs, March 
25, July 25, and Dec. 8. It is fix teen miles fouth-eaft of 
Chefter, and 166 north-north-weft of London. Lat. 53,

Adjoining the town is Cholmondeley-hall, the magnifi¬ 
cent manfion of earl Cholmondeley, a modern building, 
feated on a pleafant and fomewhat-elevated fcite. The 
ancient ftrudure, though venerable in appearance, and 
moated round, was a very difagreeable refidence, from 
being placed in a low and rnarfhy fituation. 
Slockach, on the Dee, weft of Malpas, is a village with 
a fmall church; and once had a caftle.
