- The various Publications of Dr. Towers, 
the boldnefs of his principles, his unabated 
zeal and the fide he had taken during the 
Am,rican conteft, all tended to render him 
eon{picuous. The Doctor was admitted, in 
779, to the academical honours of the uni- 
verfty of Edinburgh, having received the 
degree of LL. D. 
Dr. Towers, as a writer, poftelfed great ac- 
€uracy of judgment, and great command of 
language; as aman, he was eminent for the 
benevolence of his views, and the difinter- 
eftednefs of his condu€&t; he was animated by 
an enlightened and arene attachment to ci- 
vil and religious liberty, and was diftinguith- 
ed by the aes intrepid and jepeoics inte- 
grity. 
In Abingdon-Areet,” Weftminfter, Mr. John 
Churchill, familiarly fyled <¢ Jack Church- 
HL” by the numerous circle of friends who 
admired his good humour, and companion- 
able qualities. Nobody underftood mankind 
better than this gentleman; nobody had a 
more ready turn for repartee. His wit, though 
pointed, was fo much foftened by a jovial 
pleafantry, that the object of it was content 
to join in the laugh, at his own expence, 
without feeling refentment. Mr. Churchill, 
like his brother the poet, was ftrongly in- 
clined towards politics: At one period of his 
life he was among the moft ardent fupporters 
ef Mr. Fox, but latterly aéted in the moft

open enmity to the intereffs of that great 
martyr to political confiftency, and the ge- 
nuine principles of freedom. Mr. Churchill’s 
batits, however, were more fixed than his 
political attachments, for he continued too 
{ocial, too much inclined to the enjoyment — 
of private eafe, to be capable of that exer- 
tion which public {tations require. 
nefs which put a period to his life, had long
