In Park-place, Baker-street, Mr. Edw. Lydiatt, a frequent and valuable correspondent in the Monthly Magazine, the Editors of which pay the following respectful tribute to his memory:-"To those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance, and the benefit of his example, it were vain to speak of his merits; those who had the advantage of hearing his course of lectures on the philosophy of the mechanic arts, will not readily forget the agreeable and perspicuous manner in which he conveyed the valuable and useful knowledge with which his mind was stored. That the sphere of action of such a man should be a limited one, must ever excite regret ; that he should be cut off in the midst of his useful career, is a real loss to society: his premature death deprived the world of a work to which he had long devoted his attention, of which, those only who knew his experience and skill in these matters will be justly able to appreciate the loss. He has, however, left behind him one monument of his ingenuity in a new instrument for measuring the tenacity of metals; and his virtues, his amiable qualities in almost every relation to society, have raised him a more imperishable one in the bosoms of his friends."
