rel, some Memoirs of Mr. Tothall, printed in the "Biographical Anecdotes of Hogarth," vol. I. p. 522. At Banstead, Surrey, in his 41st year, R. Parry, esq. Lately.In Hanover-square, Rt. Hon. Mary-Anna Dowager Viscountess Hereford. She was the only daughter of George Devereux, esq. of Tregoyd, in Brecknockshire. At Kensington, Sophia Forbes, daughter of the late Arthur Forbes, esq. of Newstone, co. Meath. In Pall Mall, by shooting himself with a pistol in a hackney coach, at the gate of Carlton House, Charles Ewald Baron Aacken. He was descended from one of the first families in Prussia. Prince Leopold of Saxe-Cobourg, father of our amiable Princess Charlotte's husband, was his godfather. His brother-in-law, Baron Leopold de Lillier, is a resident at Weillic, in Prussia. He had been upwards of 20 years in the army, ten of which he had been in the Prussian service, and the remainder in the Hanoverian. Notwithstanding he had distinguished himself in every way possible in the army, yet his services remained unnoticed by his own Government or any of the Allies, either as to honours, promotion, or emolument; and in consequence he became a desperate man. When he arrived in England, about three months since, he was possessed of about 200 Louis d'Ors, when he met with a friend whom he consulted on the best way of sending 100 of them abroad to his mother. His friend endeavoured to persuade him from such an undertaking, telling him his mother was not in need of them; to which the Baron replied, his mother could give them away among the poor, and after he had spent all his money in this country he would shoot himself; which he verified, as he paid his last note to the hackney-coachman; and, it appearing before the Jury that he died with out having any effects except his clothes, swords, and n'stols, (one of the swords had a pistol attached to it, which he had taken from the Aid-de-camp of Marshal Ney), the Chevalier Ruspini, the foreman of the Jury summoned to inquire into the cause of his death, and which returned a verdict of Insanity, very humanely undertook to respect the remains of an unfortunate foreigner, and has paid the expences of his funeral. It appears from his papers that he was the original instrument, previous to the arrival of the Duke of Wellington in the field from Brussels, in gaining the victory in the memorable battle of Waterloo, by regaining the position of the Allied Army, which they had lost by the French baving succeeded in attacking and breaking a square. A certificate to that effect has been found since his untimely end, from Major-general Von Bothemer, who took the command of the battalion of Bremen and Verdun, after Lieut.-col. Von Schkopp was wounded in the memorable battle of the 18th of June, 1815, testifying that after the battalion of Verdun, which was formed in squares, had been compelled to retire to Waterloo by the fire of the enemy, Baron Von Aacken highly dis tinguished himself, and having assembled a small body of men, succeeded in regaining the position which the square originally possessed, and that in consequence the remainder of the brigade which had already retreated as far as Waterloo, returned at nine o'clock in the evening, and joined Baron Von Aacken's party for the night, in their original position; dated Orchies, 14th April, 1817. All the exertions of the other Officers to restore order had been in vain. There is a certificate to the same effect by General Sir Colin Halkett, endorsed as unsolicited by Baron Von Aacken. There are five certificates speak. ing of him in the highest terms of praise as an officer and a gentleman, and countersigned by command of his Excellency General Count Alten, commanding his Hanoverian Majesty's troops in France, &c. the 13th of April, 1817.

At Moneyhall Hall, William Hicks, esq. many years a magistrate for the counties of Warwick and Worcester. At Old Swinford, at an advanced age, Rev. Benjamin Carpenter, a man of exemplary piety and virtue. In early life he was sent to the Unitarian academy of Da ventry, where he studied under Dr. Ashworth, and was educated in the principles of Protestant non-conformity; here he remained some years, and during the latter part of the time assisted in the tuition of the younger students. Being invited by a dissenting congregation of Bloxham, in Oxfordshire, to undertake the of fice of pastor to that society, he accepted the situation, and, leaving Daventry, first entered upon the discharge of the du ties of his avocation. He afterwards offi DOW ciated in the same capacity, successively, at West Bromwich, Stourbridge, and Clapham; and, in 1807, again became one of the, pastors of the Stourbridge Unitarian Chapel. Whilst in this latter situation, he engaged with his co-adjutor, the Rev. James Scott, to preach on alternate Sundays at Cradeley, conformably to the wishes of the religious society assembling in that place. In the assiduous prosecution of the labours of his office, Mr. Carpenter continued till the hand of death removed him from this changeful scene. Mr. Carpenter was possessed of considerable literary attainments; and his various compositions exhibit much originality of thought and expression, which add greatly to the interest of the perusal; whilst they are, at the same time, characterized by a simplicity of style not less pleasing, and which renders them intelligible even to those of very inferior capacities. His uniform and well-directed benevolence, and his anxious solicitude for the best interests of those around him, will cause his memory to be revered by all with whom he was more immediately connected, and especially by the large and respectable congregations, who, by his death, are de prived of an able instructor, a prudent counsellor, and a sincere friend; whilst those whom the vicissitudes of fortune have placed in adverse circumstances, will mourn the loss of one, who was ever ready to alleviate their distresses, and to afford whatever consolation in his power, their several necessities might seem to require. At Lampeter, Cardiganshire, aged 70, St. George Armstrong, esq. Thomas Lewis, esq. of Mount Hazel, Carnarvon. SCOTLAND.-At Aberdeen, aged 56, Mrs. Hay, widow of Rev. Hugh Hay, one of the ministers of that city. At Lawers, in Breadalbane, Hugh Cameron, commonly called Eobhan na Pille, (the returning Hugh) mill-wright and miller there, at the extraordinary age of 112 years. This singular character was bred a mill-wright. After acquiring a knowledge of his business he settled at Shiaio of Lawers, where he built the first lintmill that ever was erected in the Highlands of Scotland. Before his time only the distaff and spindle were used for spinning lint and wool in that part of the country, and he was not only the first who constructed spinning - wheels and jackreels in Breadalbane, but likewise the first who taught the people there how to use them. The number of lint-mills afterwards erected by him throughout the Highlands cannot be reckoned at less than a hundred in short, almost all the lintmills in the Highlands of Perthshire, and many in the counties of Inverness, Caithness, and Sutherland, were of his erecting; he also constructed the first barley-mill that was built upon the North side of the Forth, for which he was highly complimented by Muca Ghlasarich, (Campbell, the bard) in a very popular song, called "Moladh di Eobhan Camashran Muilleir lin," (a song in praise of Hugh Cameron, the lint-miller.) Though he could only be called a country wright, he was a man of uncommon genius, particularly in every sort of machinery and engineering; and as a proof of this, there is to be seen of his construction at Shiain of Lawers, one water-wheel driving a lint-mill, a meal-mill, a barley-mill, and a spinning and cardingAt Thornton Rust, near Askrigg, aged mill, at one and the same time, and the 105, Mrs. Jane Robinson, Yorkshire.

At Monmouth, respected and esteemed as a magistrate, a friend, and a father, James Yarworth, esq. whole of that machinery under one roof. He was a man of great integrity, and of a very shrewd and independent mind, yet always cheerful and remarkably witty; and to the last his house was the resort of all the young people in the place, whom he used to amuse with his witty repartees and funny stories. He was also celebrated for reciting Ossian's Poems, of which he had a great store, which he said he had learned before he was a dozen years of age. He was rather singular in his dress, which he would change for no man. He never had a glove on his hand, nor a hat on his head, but always wore a large round bonnet made of grey mixed wool, just as it came off the sheep, with an uncommonly large wig of his own making, of black horse-hair. It is rather to be re At Brecon, the wife of Thomas Meredith, esq. At Croffinion, near Swansea, aged 104, gretted, that notwithstanding his wonderful William Hugh. merit, and the great advantages which the the Highlands of Perthshire, and Breadalbane in particular, derived from the fruits of his extraordinary genius, and though he had no family, he died in great poverty and indigence.

A fourth friend, M. Voelkel, died within a year; and a fifth, the Privy Counseller Schmirke, aged 86, had preceded them some months.

Bell, prebendary of Westminster, and treasurer of St. Paul's, was proved in January last; by which it appears, that the expectations of those who considered that his large fortune would be disposed of in public charities have not been rea lized, as he has left his property, with the exception of some charitable donations, amongst his nearest relatives. But, having made this proper and natural disposal of his property at his decease, he gave the freest range to his charities out of it dur ing his life. It is not, perhaps, generally known to what extent his private as well as public charities amounted; but it is not too much to say, that he annually dispensed thousands in "succouring the indigent, promoting industry, and contributing to the good of every useful institution." His general acts of beneficence, which were great beyond example, were also without ostentation or vanity: but to enumerate all the various instances of his diffusive benevolence would fill, not a page, but a volume. He was always looking out for objects of distress. Nor were his piety and desire to promote religious truths, passions less intense with him than his charity, as his publications on several subjects of Divinity evidently prove. This excellent man was descended from a line of ancestors who signalized themselves in their Country's cause, as is recorded in the page of History. He was particularly honoured with the personal regard of his present Majesty, as well as other members of the Royal Family. His mortal part remains with us, but his immortal spirit is gone where he will reap the just reward of his eminent virtues. Memory will long bewail his loss, and the recollection of his inestimable worth will ever remain with his survivors, whilst charity and goodness preserve their ascendancy over the minds and morals of a generous, enlight, ened, and grateful people.
