veffe! was forty minutes in paffing through. 
The length of the tunnel is 1630 yards ; 
in height it is nearly 18 feet, and in 
width 17 feet. The work was planned 
by Mr. Whitworth, and executed by 
Mr. Fletcher, with great refolution and 
ingenuity, in defpite of extraordinary 
difficulties. It is confeffedly the moft 
complete work of the kind in the Britith 
dominions. °

Aged 84, William Tayleur, efg. of Belmont, 
a man, in whom it may, with the firiéteft truth, 
be faid, the public have fuftained a very heavy 
lofs. A judicious, but not parfimonious ceco= 
nomy, enabled him to apply a large proportion 
of his income to. aéts of beneficence. In his 
ptincely liberalities, he was not actuated merely 
by the impulfe of {trong and compaffionate feel. 
ings; thefe were under the conftant direction of 
an enlightened mind ; and (where he was- not 
impofed upon) his bounty was always propor- 
tioned to what appeared to him the merits and 
neceffity of the cafe. Where thefe were con- 
{picuous, the extent of his donations would not 
perhaps be readily credited. Infinitely fuperior 
to narrow prejudice, the genial warmth of his 
benevolence was communicated equally and 
alike to all; nor was it eyer circumfcribed with- 
in the confined pale of party, feet, or vicinage. 
Bleed with a found and vigorous underftand- 
ing, cultivated and improved by a liberal edu- 
cation, he early fhook off the fetters of pre- 
juice; and devoted himielf, with an arden 
zeal, to the ftudy and purfuit of truth. Bis 
faith m Chriftianity was the refult of the 
moit deliberate and rational conviGion; and 
being allo fully perfuaded, after many years of 
diligent, candid, and impartial enquiry, that 
the doctrine of the Divine Unity was the pe- 
nuine doctrine of Scripture, he hefitated not ta 
join him(felf co a fociety of Unitarian Chriftians, 
in Shrewibury 5 aftep that he reflected upon with, 
increafing -fatisfaction, tu the laft hours of his 
hfe. Then it was, when regarding with that 
enign compaflion which angels may be fup- 
pofed to feel, the miferable fitudtion of thofe 
who. at that folemn period are without hope, he 
exulted in the Chriftian’s triumphant profpect 
of immortality. This portrait is, indeed, fketckrd 
by one, who indulges a melancholy fatisfaction 
in. paying this public tribute to the memory Of 
his venerable friend; but that it is in every 
iota a faithful, though feeble delineation, of this 
exaited charaéter; he believes no individual 
who knew the original will attempt to deny. 
The Rev. Mr. W/liams, vicar of Llanarmon, 
near Oiweftry, fuddenly ; as alfo his brother, 
the curate of Lianfilin, who having been feat 
for on the occafion, after entering the houfe, 
dropped down, and expired. The widow of 
the vicar alfo died a few days aiterwards, after 
fome hours illnefs.
