and an occasional correspondent of this Maga-

near Greenwich Hospital. The cause of his 
m¢lancholy fate is supposed to be as follows: 
that in soing home by the waterside on the 
night before, he dy some means slipped (the. 
night being very frosty) down and fel§ 
through the railing, which is very ill con- 
structed. By this unfortunate circumstance, 
Society is robbed of one of its greatest orna- 
ments, for he was a man of sound understand 
ing and universal knowledge ; and his loss is 
severely felt, not only by numerous relatives, 
but by an extensive circle of friends. 
Ta St. Paul’s Church Yard, 4. Faseph 
Fobnson, bookseller. He was the younger of 
two sons of a jarmer at Everton, a village one 
mile from Liverpool. He was born on the 
doth of November, 1738, and had therefore 
Just completed the seventy-first year of hig 
age. His family were dissenters of the bap-~

Suitable age, to Mr. George Keith, .a bovk.-

son, as led tu a familiarity and friendship, 
which the vicissitudes of almost fifty years 
had not the power te overthrow. The part- 
nership with Davenport being dissolved, Mr. 
Johnson formed a similar cennection with 
a Mr. Payne; and their business was carried 
on in Paternoster Row, till nearly the whole 
of thie property was consumed by fire in 
1770, no part of it being insured. By this 
time Mr. Johnson had acquired the highes 
character with those who knew him best, 
for integrity and a virtuous disposition; and 
new that he was om the ground, ** hig

the shep in St. Paul’s Church Yard, where
