e.was fome time recorder of Briftol, ad- 
vanced to the rank of King’s Council, and in 
1757, made one of the Welfh judges, and 
afterwards one of the judges of Chefter. Be- 
ing poffefled of an. ample income, and having 
a flrong bias to antiquarian knowledge, and 
natural hiftory, he applied his legal knowledge 
to the inveftigation of curious queftions of 
legal antiquity, and publithed the refults in a 
valuable quarto volume. His enquiries into 
ornithology, the various phenomena of nature 
are well known, and his intelligent converfa- 
tion on thofe and other fubjeéts, will not be 
{pecdily forgatten. He was alfo an efteemed 
and conmf@ant contributor to the tranfaétions 
ef the Royal Society. Mr. B. is probably

long, ftudiéus, and inoffenfive life, and was 
ene of thofe men who, without the boait of 
ready or fplendid talents, obtain by diligence, 
patient inveftigation and invariable integrity, 
that degree of refpe&t which its own excentri~ 
cities will feldom fuffer genius to enjoy.

At Bath, aged 27 and 26, the ladies Mary 
and Julia Colyear, daughters of the Earl of 
Portmore. They died of a rapid decline, 
within three hours of each other, being pre- 
viouily quite exhaufted. ‘They had been fine 
young women, and much admired at court, 
and in the fafhionable circles, Lady Julia 
had been watching the momentarily expected 
diffolution of her fitter, when on a fudden fhe 
arofe, ran into an adjoining roem, gave aloud 
fhriek, and was the firft of the two that ex- 
pired.

At his houfe in Devonfhire-ftreet, Port- 
land-place, in his 41f year, Anthony 
Lambert, Efq. This gentleman, who was 
a native of Northumberland, went, in 1779 
to Bengal, as a cadet, in the military ices 
of the Englifh Eaft-India Company; but 
abandoned the prafefiion of arms fhorily after 
the peace in 1782, and applied himfelf te 
commerce, which, during the remainder of 
his refidence in India, he followed with fin- 
gular induftry, ability and fuccefs. Such a 
purfuit, however, was altogether inadequate 
to the full occupation of his aétive mind 
Though expofed to the influence of a climate 
highly enervating to Europeans, he fill pof- 
feiled an ardent defire for ftudy, and found 
time to gratify it in the midit of the moft 
various and important concerns of bufinefs. 
The knowledge which he hence derived was 
not, as is frequently the cafe with thofe who 
read much aiter they are men, without having 
enjoyed a learned education while young 
either defultory or confufed. : 
on the contrary, which he thus gained, im- 
mediately affumed its proper place in his 
roind, connecting itfelf with whatever 4]- 
ready exifted there of a like nature; and 
when it was to be ufed, it came forth aude 
panied by many other familar facts and rea- 
ionings, and eombined with thefe intoa whole 
by his own powers of thought. Much of his 
knowledge indeed was not to be found in 
books, thougha moft valuable one might have 
been formed from it. For, having negleéted 
no opportunity which had occurred to hi 
during a itay of xg-years in India, of becom- 
ing acquainted with its geography, politics 
products, commerce, and manufactures, he 
was in pofleflion of more information upon 
thote points, taken together, than perhaps 
any other perfon of his time. Such attains 
meats naturally rendered him both ufeful and 
agreeable, in genera! fociety; while his up=
