[Refpefting the late William Henry Lamb- 
ton, efq. we have been favoured with the 
following interefting particulars. Amongf 
thofe diftinguifhed charaéters, whofe lauda- 
ble career of patrioticexertion, or private be- 
nevolence, has been cut fhort by a premature 
death, few can more juftly claim the affec- 
tionate regard of pofterity, than’ the late 
William Henry Lambton, efg. As a far of 
-fuperior magnitude, he thone for a moment 
above the political horizon, and enlivened 
with his benignant influence, the orbit of his 
private life. Yet, whilf his public merits, 
as one of thofe (few, indeed, in number) who 
dared to ftem the torrent of popular delufion, 
will ftand recorded in the hiftory of his coun- 
try, the remembrance of his private Virtues, 
and the example of his domeftic life, confined 
to a narrow {phere, may perifh in the bofoms 
of his affociates and his friends. To fnatch 
thefe from oblivion, and point them out to 
the general admiration, to trace the early 
dawnings of his youth, and the fuccefiive de- 
velopement of his acquifitions in mature 
years, would require the pen of genius en- 
lightened by the torch of intercourfe; a fhort 
iketch, however, of his public and private 
life, may not be unworthy of attention, and 
authenticity of faéts make fome ‘atonement 
for deficiency of illuftration. If the pride of 
anceftry was not foon forgot in the contem- 
plation of perfonal merit, we might largely 
expatiate on the advantages- he derived trom 
birth, and trace the family of Lambton, re- 
fiding on their patrimonial eftate in the county 
of Durham, from the Saxon ages; or enhance 
the value of his maternal defcent from a line 
of Scottith nobles. But the reputation of the 
progenitors was eclipfed by the virtues of the 
defcendant, and the light they afforded re- 
flected ftrongly back in the luftre of his fame. 
This ineftimable charaéter was born on the 
rth of November, 1764, the fon of Generat 
John Lambton, of the 68th regiment of foot, 
and Lady Sufan Lyon, fafter to the Earl of 
Strathmore. His predeceffors had frequently 
reprefented the county and city of Durham in 
parliament, and his father had feated himfelf 
with confiderable popularity for the latter, 
by afferting the privileges of the freemen, in’ 
oppofition to the nfurpations of fictitious 
votes. The fond afteétion of a parent, hoping 
his fon might one day hold a feat in the na- 
tional councils, determined that no ‘advan~- 
tage of education fhould be wanting to render 
him worthy of the important truft. Incon- 
forrity to his defign, Mr. Lambton was 
placed,
