theatre, his watch was invariably placed upon the table; and he was never known, during the whole course of his engagement at Covent Garden, to disappoint the public but once, and that was from the circumstance of the accouchement of his wife. His apology to the audience on that occa sion will be generally remembered. He has left an amiable wife, and seven young children, for whose future support it is feared he has not made the most slender provision. Mr. Emery has, however, always been a decided favourite, professionally, as well as with those who knew him; and therefore it is hoped, should the case require it, his friends and the public, to whose amusement he has upwards of twenty-three years so largely contributed, will come forward to render their assist ance. In the death of Mr. Emery the stage and the public have suffered a severe loss; his family a most indulgent father, and his friends and associates a warm. hearted, generous, and intelligent companion.

In Lambeth road, Mr. Brooshooft, thirtytwo years Clerk of the Papers, and Deputy Marshal of the King's Bench prison. Mr. B. had been speuding his evening at the Britannia Tavern, opposite the prison, and about half an hour had returned home and retired to bed; he snddenly jumped up, and, putting his hand on his head, exclaimed, "Good God, what's that?" He gradually got worse, and about two hours afterwards, expired. His head was opened, when a vessel appeared to have been ruptured, and thus produced apoplexy. Mr. B. was highly esteemed by all his friends and acquaintance.

In Cavendish-square, Horatio Walpole Earl of Orford. He was descended from Horace Walpole, (the brother of the cele brated Sir Robert Walpole,) who, in 1757, was created Baron Walpole of Woolterton, The late lord was born in 1761, his father, the second Lord Walpole, having married Rachael, daughter of William Duke of Devonshire. He married, 1783, a Miss Churchill, daughter of Charles Churchill, by whom he has children. His lordship, before his father's death, sat several parliaments for Lynn in Norfolk, a borough which Sir Robert Walpole represented, and which has since shewn a strong at tachment to the Walpole family. While in the House of Commons, the then Colonel Walpole voted very steadily with the opposition. On his father's death he was introduced, and took his seat in the House of Lords, and there seems to have changed his political conduct. The earl dom of Orford bestowed on Sir Robert Walpole, in 1742, becoming extinct by the death of Horace Walpole, Earl of Orford, in 1796, Lord Walpole became desirous to obtain that title which, in 1806, was. be.

stowed on him. He has since voted with administration, and has been further recompensed by his son, Lord Walpole, being nominated to two or three diplo

matic stations.

At his house, in Manchester-square, the most noble Francis Seymour Conway, Marquis of Hertford. He was born in 17-18, and was educated, first at Eton, and then at Oxford; his title, at that period, was Lord Beanchamp. In the year 1769 he was returned M.P. for Lestwithiel, and next year for the family borough, Orford, in Suffolk, for which place he continued to sit until he was called up to the House of Peers. About the above period he was introduced into the privy council of Ireland. In 1773 he was appointed, by his father, colonel of the Warwickshire militia, and he soon after married one of the.. coheiresses of the late Lord Windsor, who died without leaving him any children." He then married Isabella Anne, eldest daughter of the late Viscount Irwin, by whom he acquired a large fortune, and by: whom also he had an only son, the present Earl of Yarmouth. His lordship, for some time, voted with the opposition; but, in 1776, being offered a seat at the treasuryboard, he accepted it, and joined Lord North's ministry. While in this situation he introduced a bill for the relief of insolvent debtors, which is commonly called Lord Beauchamp's Bill. The same year he was appointed cofferer of the king's household, which place he held until Lord North was compelled to resign. In 1780 he, with Lord North, formed part of the ill advised coalition. With that party he appears to have acted for some time. His father having been, in 1793, created a marquis, his lordship assumed the title of Earl of Yarmouth. Under this title he was sent by Mr. Pitt on a mission to the northern powers, where he did not remain long; and on his return, by the death of his father, he became Marquis of Hertford, took his seat in the House of Peers, and was appointed lord lieutenant and custos rotulorum of the county of Warwick. Soon after this, the marquis and all his family omitted the name of Conway in their signatures, and retained that of Seymour only. In 1806 he was appointed master of the horse to the king; and, on the death of Lord Dartmouth, he succeeded him as lord chamberlain. He was also x.G. His lordship was a man of mild manners, and the most pleasing address. His fortune was princely, which he spent in a splendid manner. He was some time lord chamberlain to the king, which old age and infirmities obliged him to resign. His lordship passed a long life, not devoid of ambition, knowledge of business, or power of talent. He was an accomplished gentleman, of considerably literary attainments, and had long been a patron and

promoter

promoter of several valuable institutions in the metropolis. He had been in a declining state of health upwards of two years; but within the last ten days the decay became very rapid. The entailed estates are estimated at 90,000l. per

andum.

[Lately, 50, his serene highness, Augustus, reigning Duke of Saxe-Gotha and Altenburg. Although not called upon to act a brilliant part in European politics, his, decease will be most sincerely regretted, and his loss severely lamented by all classes of his subjects. He succeeded, in 1804, his father, Ernest II. Being well aware, that, by entering into the military service of any great potentate, he might, in case of war, involve his own subjects in misfortune, he did not, like most of his contemporary princes, enter into the service of Austria or Prussia; in consequence of which, when Bonaparte overran Germany, the territory of Saxe Gotha was in part exempted from the many evils which befel other principa lities. The duke was in true heart a Sazon. He lived in intimacy and friend

ship with the revered King of Saxony, and always inveighed with manly reprobation against the spoliation and injustice which distracted the German states. The duke was distinguished by his urbanity, and splendid hospitality towards strangers. He constantly resided in his dominions, and his main study was in promoting the comforts and happiness of all his subjects. He was equally well versed in the language and literature of Germany and France, in both of which he expressed himself with elegance and originality. His literary productions, though somewhat eccentric, bear evident traits of genius and philanthropy. He was twice married; but, having left no issue, he is succeeded in his titles by his only brother Frederick IV. who is unmarried; and, in case of his demise without heirs, the territory will be divided between the Dukes of Saxe-Meningen, Hildburghausen, and Coburg Saalfield, being the remaining descendants of Ernest the Pious, who died in 1675, and left his dominions to his seven sons.]

At Carlisle, 35, Jeremiah, eldest son of the late Mr. Francis Jollie. He had long lingered in a gradual decay of nature, and, though his death was sudden, it was not altogether unexpected. As a man, he possessed, in an eminent degree, the milder virtues of the heart-generous without ostentation, and virtuous without affectation; those who knew him witnessed many instances of his sympathy for the distressed, and his veneration for the good. He had not the tinsel accomplishments of modern society, but his heart was a gem which shone brighter without them; which was richly lustrous, thongh devoid of the meretricious glitterings given by the lapidary fashion. As to the world he was a child, unacquainted with deceit himself, he never suspected it in others; hence most of the embittered ingredients mingled in his life were occasioned by the hollow. ness of hypocritical friendship, and the treachery of plausible and obliged compa nionship. As a patriot he was firm, vigorous, and persevering-he despised sycophancy, and he detested tyranny,-corruption had no baits for him, riches no temp; tation, ambition no allurements: he loved his country genuinely, fervently, and devotedly-yet, much as he loved her, he loved freedom more; for the one he had the affection of a son, for the other the attachment of a lover. But no spot of earth could bound the sympathies of his soul-wherever liberty waved her banner, there were his anxions looks and his fervent hopes. Man was his brother-French, Spaniard, Portuguese, African, Indian, American, Italian, Greek, struggling for freedom, had his prayer, and the tributes of his pen. Often has he been heard to express his enthusiastic aspirations for the fate of America, of Italy, and of Greece, and declare that the delight of his soul would be the liberation of Greece, and the regeneration of the British Constitution-and that he might be living to see both. As a writer, his style was nervous without being particularly rugged, classical without being in the least pedantic-he had an excellent knowledge of the dead, and some of the living, languages. He had great vigour

of thought and expression-the characteristic of his productions being strength rather than beauty; but his sentences told they went home to the heart as much as to the head, without playing round either the one or the other.

YORKSHIRE.

The exhibition of the Northern Society for the Encouragement of the Fine Arts closed on the 10th ult.: pictures to the amount of seven hundred and seventy-five pounds were sold.

Messrs. Benyon and Co. Leeds, by the application of the smoke-burning apparatus of Messrs. Parkes, have recently succeeded in consuming the smoke from their factory.

The West Riding will shortly enjoy, it is expected, advantages hitherto unknown, from the improvements lately made on the Aire and Calder navigation, which were designed by the late Mr. Rennie. About 300 workmen are already employed in this undertaking. It is calculated that in two years the work will be finished, and then vessels of a sufficient burthen to navigate any of the European seas with safety, may receive their cargoes at the town of Leeds.

A fatal accident, occasioned by firedamp, lately took place at the colliery of Messrs. Newboulds, near Sheffield. Ten of the workmen had just descended the pit where the gas had accumulated, which, coming in contact with the lighted candle, ignited the vapour, and five men were killed.

There have been recently taken from a rookery at Hemmingly, near Horncastle, a couple of milk-white rooks, with white bills and legs, and without the least tinge of any other colour whatever: they are full fledged, tame, and well worth the observa tion of the virtuoso and the naturalist.

SHROPSHIRE.

The thirteenth anniversary of the Shrop shire Agricultural Society for the show of stock, and adjudication of the premiums, took place within the month. There has been a more numerous meeting of landed proprietors and fancy farmers, but never a better company of practical farmers.

HEREFORDSHIRE.

The late Hereford Agricultural meeting at Leominster was well attended, and the exhibition of cattle, &c. for the premiums, was rather flattering to Hereford breeders. W. C. Hayton, esq. was president. It appeared the unanimous opinion of the society, that the expedients recently before Parliament were utterly inadequate to any relief, and that a reduction of taxes and rent is essentially necessary for the existence of the farmer.
