artift introduced a ftyle of binding which united 
elegance with durability, in a manner which no 
other perfon has been able to imitate. He may 
juftly be ranked among artifts of the greateft 
merit, The ornaments he employed were 
felected with a claffieal ta@e 5 and in many in- 
fiances appropriated to the fubject of the work, 
ex to the age and time of the author. Each 
book of his binding was accompanied: with a 
written defcription of the ornamentss, drawn 
up in a moift precife and curious ftyle. His 
chf-d’eeurre is his Aifchylus, in the poffefion 
of Earl Spencer ; the ornament and decorations 
of this book are uncommonly fplendid, and 
truly claffical.. The binding coit the noble pro- 
prietor fifteen guineas. Thofe who are not 
accuftomed to fee bookbinding executed in any 
other than the common manner, can foim no 
idea of the merits of the deceafed, who lived 
without a rival, and there is reafon to fear has 
dicd without a fucceffor. 
O&. 3, in Bury-court, St. Mary-axe, Mrs. 
Mr. Jofhua Deighton, 
Harris Highmore, wife of Mr. Anthony High- 
more, Attorney at law, fecond daughter of the 
late juftly refpeCted Henry Hinckley, M.D. of 
Aldermanbury, by his frft wife. - She was fud- © 
denly attacked by an apoplexy on the previous 
evening, which terminated in her death in lefs 
than 24 hours, She was born April 23, 1763, 
and married to Mr. Highmore on Sept. 6, 
1787, by whom fhe has left two fons and one 
daughter. Although the call was fudden, fhe 
poffefled a foul which was never unprepared : 
fhe was bleffed with an elevated fortitude, a 
quick and brilliant perception, and capacious 
underftanding : her mind, formed by early habits 
of enquiry, was amply and profitably furnifhed 
with facred and . philofophical - knowledge, 
although fhe had received her early infiruGions 
from her father, yet fhe had adopted his opi- 
nions from the ftudy of maturer years; and was 
not only atruly Unitarian Chriftian in her faith, 
but a truly rez] Chrifian in her life and con- _ 
duét: her converfation was cheerful and en- 
livening without intruding, and informing with~ 
out affectation. Her manners were the juft ad- 
miration of her acquaintance, and the delight of 
everyintimate friend. In her family the was belov- 
ed and refpetted : fhe foothed all their cares, and 
augmented all their joys. Her domeftic economy 
was formed upon method and punétual regula- 
rity ; and where the limitation of her powers 
could not reach, fhe gave a ready: tear, and 
poured a balm upon aftli€ted poverty. In fine, 
there was fcarcely a duty which did not perform, 
an affection fhe did not poffefs, a delight the 
did not communicate, or a bleffing in the power 
of female excellence to beftow, which fhe did 
not di/perfe on all around her.

Diffenting Congregation, in that city, and a 
literary charaéter of eminence. Dr. Enfield 
was born at Sudbury, on March 29, O.S. 
1741, of parents in a humble walk of life, 
but of very refpefable characters. His amt- 
able difpofition and promifing talents early re- 
commended him to the Rev. Mr. Hextall, the 
diffenting minifter of that place, who took 
great care of his education, and infufed into 
his young mind that tafte for elegance in com- 
pofition, which ever afterwards diftinguifhed 
him. In his 17th year, he was fent to the 
academy at Daventry, then under the direc-
