on the heath, between the Barracks and 
Hounflow:—they walked towards them, and 
obferved the man had on an old fhabby fol- 
dier*sred jacket, and the woman, talland lufty, 
2 red cloak, without ftockings; the man was 
fewing the lining of his hat with a needle- 
and black thread. Hence arifes the fufpicion 
that the perfons who committed the murder 
were the perfons remarked by Mr, and Mrs, 
Bullock. Sir R. Ford has'fent circular let- 
ters to the mayors and prefiding officers of the 
different towns and boroughs in the kingdom, 
defcribing the above two perfons, which, with 
other active exettiuns making by every de- 
partment of the Police, will, it is fervently 
hoped, bring the perpetrators to fpeedy and 
condign punifhment. y

owed to the munificence of his Majefty, and 
the latter to the prefent Bifhop of Worcefter, 
was fon tothe Rev. Richard Arnald, B.D. 
rector of Thurcafton, the beloved retreat of 
Dr.~ Hurd, and celebrated by the Mufe of

ing year ; appointed chaplain to. Bifhop Hurd 
417755 and fub-preceptor to their Royal 
Highneffes the Prince of Wales and Duke of 
York 1776. The unhappy mental derange- 
ment under which he laboured for the lat 
twenty years, was the fource of real grief to 
a numerous circle of friends, who, attached 
to him by the ftrongeft ties of efteem and af- 
fection, admired his abilities, loved the ur- 
banity of his: manners, and acknowledged the 
goodnefs of his heart ] 
[ Further particulars relative to the late NM. 
Boffi.] The lateM.Bofli was a mufical profeffor 
of confiderable talents. His appointment at 
the Opera-houfe was that which, without 
Sreat éclatto the mafter, is molt effential to 
the charm of the entertainment. -His bufi- 
nefs was to compofe new mufic for the bal- 
jets ; to lead the bard during the perform- 
ance of the dances ; and to do ail the prefa- 
tory duty in bringing out new operas, In 
this tafk his talent was-unrivalled 5; nothing 
Could be more exquifite than the melodies 
which he wrote for the impaijioned, pathe- 
tic, or exhilerating movements of Didelot, 
Refe, and Hilligfberg ; and he wrote with a 
capidity unexampled, He funk under the 
feverity of obdurate confinement and decline, 
at the early age of 2g years, leavinga wie 
dow (the younger De) Caro) with three in- 
fants, and very far advanced in pregnancy 
with the fourth. His duty at the Opera- 
‘houfe, for the laft feafon, was kindly and 
ratuitoufly performed by Mr. Connejl and 
Mr, Simonet, for the benefit of his family. |

[ Further particulars of the Rev. Dr. Knowles, 
whofe death was announced in our laff Number, 
page 367. |—The Doétor was a native of Ely, 
and received his education at the grammar- 
{chool of that place, from whence he was 
removed to Pembroke-hall, Cambridge, 
where he commenced B.A, in 1743, M.A. 
in 1747, and was alfo chofen Fellow of tha 
Society. His works difcover great learning, 
and the ftyle is plain and perfpicuous, The 
following is a complete lift of them: 1. The 
Scripture Doétrine of the Exiftence and At- 
tributes of God, in twelve Sermons, witha 
Preface, in Anfwer to a Pamphlet concerning 
the Argument @ priori.i—2. An Anfwer to 
Bithop Clayton’s Effay on Spirit ; for which 
Archoithop Secker conferred on him the de- 
gree of D.D.—+3. Lord Hervey’s and Dr. 
Middleton’s Letters on the Roman Senate.— 
4. Obfeivations on the Tithe Bill.—5. Dia- 
logue on the Teft A@.—6. Primitive Chrif. 
tianity in favour of the Trinity. This was 
anfwered by Mr. Capel Loft.—7. Obferva- 
‘tions on the divine Miffion of Mofes.v, Ad- 
vice to a young Clergyman, in fix Letters. — 
g. The Paffion, a Sermon —10, On Charity 
Schools, on Sunday Schools, anda Prepara- 
tory Difcourfe on Confirmation.x—Though he 
eccafionally meddled with controverfial points, 
yet he always conduéted himfelf with the 
urbanity of a fcholar, the politenefs of a 
gentleman, and the meeknefs of a Chriftian. 
He had particularly dire€ted his ftudies to the 
acquirement of biblical learning 3 and, by 
temporary feclufion from the world, had 
ftored this mind with the treafures of divine 
wifdom., As a preacher, he was juftly ad- 
His delivery in the pulpit was ear. 
neft and impreflive ; his language nervous 
and affe€ting ; his manner plain and artlefs. 
His difcourfes were evidently written to oe- 
nefit thofe to whom they were addreffed, 
not to acquire for himfelf the paltry titleofa 
popular preacher, It was his grand object to 
{trike at the root of moral depravity—to 
roufe up the languifhing fpirit of devotion— 
to improve the age, and ¢o lead mento the 
obfervance of thuie moral duties, which his 
Divine Matter taught them to regard as the 
effentials of his religion. To the doétrines 
of the Church of England he was a zealous 
but, at the fame-time, he was alfo 
the friend of toleration. As a parih-prieft, 
he fv od unrivailéd among his order 5 exem- 
pkery in his conduét—unremitted in -his at- 
tention to the duties of his ftation—blending 
in his ordinary converfation affability and 
opennefs, with that gravity of demeanour, 
which well becomes a miniiter of the gofpel— 
perfuafive in his addrefles to his hearers—-and 
adorning his dottrine by his life—he will be 
long and unafte€tedly lamented by his nu- 
merous parifhioners. His only daughter was 
married, in 1780, to the Rev. Benjamin Un- . 
gerwood, Retor of Eaft Barnet, and of St. 
Mary Abchurch, London. ;
