At Douglas, in the Isle of Man, aged 54, 
William Hough, esq... This gentleman was 
a captainjupon half-pay, and owed his com- 
mission to the favour of their Royal High- 
nesses the Dukes of Cumberland and Cam- 
bridge, to whom Mr. Hough was recom- 
' mended by the innoxious hilarity and amu- 
sing mirthfulness, of his manners. In his 
early days Mr. Hough made a considerable 
figure in the circles of fashion. He was co- 
éemporary.at the Charter-house, and at Cam- 
bridge, withthe present Primate of E England, 
and with the Chancellor of Ireland 5 and in 
such.of his schooi-mates and companions in 
nore advanced Jife, as happen to. survive him, 
the mention of his name can hardly fail to 
excite many interesting recollections. The 
entanglement, in a. twenty-years Chancery 
litigation, of a large fortune which Mr. 
Hough inherited from a father, far more 
thrifty than his son, disarranged the whole 
system of his domestic life ; whilst, in the 
management of what escaped the protection 
of the law and the benevolenceof the money- 
lender, it would certainly be more easy to 
praise the gaod-nature than the discretion of 
Mr. Hough himself. - few refractory cre- 
ditors, together with the total destitution of 
all sympathy, in quarters where the senti- 
-ment had been most natural, 
exiled Mr. 
Hoxgh from his country for many years.

_ At the late quarterly meeting of the Hol. 
derneess Agricultural Society, the question 
discussed was, ‘* The value of straw for sale, 
or for manure, and the effect of stubble he- 
fore and after ploughing being estimated—Is 
it the best husbandry, to mow, or to shear 
white corn?” As to the general question, 
whether it is the best husbandry to mow or 
to shear white corn, the members present 
differed in opinion; but the majority of them 
were in favour of shearing. Some.i important 
communications were made by Thomas Grirh- 
ston, of Grimston Garth, esq. for which, and 
his active and useful zeal upon many former 
occasions, to promote the agricultural interes¢ 
of the country, the society felt themselves 
highly obliged, and:voted him their cordial 
‘and unanimous thanks. 
As some workmen were cutting down aa 
elm belonging to Mr. Jepson, of €onisbrough, 
they discovered, in the heart of the tree, a 
horse-shoe, whee anail in it, in excellent 
preservation. It is supposed that it must 
have lain in the tree for fifty years. The 
elm is: five feet in circumfetence. Mr. 
Green, of High-street, Sheed, has the shoe 
in his possession. 
An appropriate and classically-elegant mo- 
nument, by Westmacot, is just erected in 
York Cathedral, tothe revered memory of 
the late Dr. Bagel. It is placed i in the cha- 
pel behind the ‘choir, and exhibits a full- 
length emblematical figure of Religion, sus- 
taining with her right hand a cross, and 
having her left placed on a book, entitled, 
‘© On the Holy Trinity.” Adjoining, is an 
altar, with the name ‘Burcu on the upper 
part, and inthe centre, a glory, diverging 
from the letters J. H.S. On the base or pe- 
destal of the monument, is a brief Latin me- 
morial of the dates and places of Dr. Burgh’s 
nativity and death; and beneath is the fol- 
lowing poetic inscription, written by Joho 
Bacon Sawrey Morritt, esq. 
Lost in a jarring world's tumultuous cries, 
Unmark’d around us sink the good and wise: 
Here Burau is laid; a venerable name, 
To virtue sacred, not unknown to fame ; 
Let those he lov’d, let those who lov’d him, 
tell 
How dear he liv’d, and how lamented fell ; 
Tell of the void his social spirit left, 
Of comforts long enjuyed, for ever reft, 
Of wit that gilded many a sprightlier “eink 
Of kindness when the scene of joy was o’er, 
Of truth’s ethereal beam, by learning giv’n, 
To guide his virtues to their native heav’n ; 
Nor hall their sorrowing voice be heard un- 
mov’'d 
While gratitude is ieft, or geqdness lov’d,
