prehensive, Mr. Ramsay joined the utmost 
benevolence of mind, which his ample for- 
tune happily afforded him many opportu- 
nities of recording in numerous acts of 
liberality, which, while ‘they attest the 
munificence of his disposition, greatly add 
to the sorrow so generally felt for his un- 
timely fate. Mr Ramsay has been long 
known as the patron of every undertaking 
connected witlr the progress: of the coun. 
try, and his great command of capital 
enabled him to execute his plans on so 
large a scale, that his loss will be felt 
most severely by the numerous train of 
labourers and dependants, to whom -he dis- 
pensed comfort and support. 
Died.) At Fornighty, Nairnshire, Duncan , 
Campbell, esq. Jt would be needless to 
enlarge upon the virtues which distinguished 
this worthy gentleman: suffice it to say, 
that, actuated with the purest patriotism, he 
was ardently solicitous for bettering the con- 
dition of the poor 5 and that with the warmest 
affections of the mind, he was the tender hus- 
band, the affectionate father, the steady friend, 
and the honest man, Living thus highly 
esteemed for the generous exercise.of those 
amiable qualities which endear man to so-, 
ciety, he died most sincerely lamented by.

Lately at Edgeworth’s town, in the centre 
of Ireland, died, without astruggle, the wi- 
dow Burnet, aged 116 and upwards. She had 
been wife to an honest laborious mason, and 
she was.a woman of uncommon shrewdness 
and activity. The winter before last she was 
seen mounted ona ladder mending the thatch 
of her cottage. ‘Though she was thus careful 
of her worldly goods, she was uncommonly 
good-natured and charitable. Her mind was 
never fretted by malevolent passions. She 
was always ready to give or lend what little 
muney she possessed, and she was careful to, 
do these services to her distressed neighbours” i 
when no witness was present;,so that accident | 
alone 4.scovered some of her good deeds and i 
bad debts. In her habits of diet she was very | 
temperate 3 she lived chiefly on potatoes and iH 
milk, and stirabout 5 never drank spirits, or i 
| 
| 
beer, but sometimes drank a glass of sweet 
wine, of which she was fond. She was (like 
most other long-lived peopl) an early riser, 
and tock regular but not violent exercise. i 
For the last twenty years of her life she sel- 
dom failed to walk from the coitage where 
she lived to Edgeworth’s town, a discance of 
about. an English mile over a rough stony 
road. She preserved all her organs of sense i 
to the Jast; could hear what was said ina low Hl 
voice, could distinguish the changes of coun- | | 
tenance of those to whom she spoke, as sie. i 
plainly proved by changing her topics of con- i} 
versation whenshe found they did not please | 
her auditors; her sense of smell had not i 
failed ; the summer before her death she li
