Pyefinch, poor Mr. Munro (fon of Sir Hector) and myself, went on thore on Saugur ifland to fhoot deer. faw innumerable tracks of tigers and deer, but ftill we were induced to purfue our fport, and did the whole day. About half paft three we fat down on the edge of the jungle, to eat fome cold meat fent us from the thip, and had just commenced our meal, when Mr. Pyetinch and a block fervant toki as there was a fine deer within fix yards of Mr. Downey and myself immediately jumped up to take our guns; mine was the nearett, and I had just laid hold of it when hord a roar, like thunder, and faw an immente royal tiger fpring on the unfortunate Munro, who was fitting down. moment his head was in the heart's mouth, and he ruthed into the jungle with him, with as much cafe as I could lift a kitten,

The agonies of horror, regret, and, I muft fay, fear (for there were two trees, every thing yielding to his monftrous tigers, male and female) rushed on me at once. The only effort I could make was to in his mouth. I relied partly on Providence, fire at him, though the poor youth was still partly on my own aim, and fired a mufket. I faw the tiger ftagger and agitated, and cried out fo immediately. Mr. Downey

then fired two shots, and I one more. after, Mr. Munro came up to us, all over retired from the jungle, and, a few minutes blood, and fell. We took him on our backs for him from the Valentine Eaft India-man, to the boat, and got every medical affiftance which lay at anchor near the island, but in vain. He lived 24 hours in the extreme of torture; his head and fkull were torn, by the claws all over his neck and shoulders; and broke to pieces, and he was wounded but it was better to take him away, though limb by limb. irrecoverable, than leave him to be devoured We have just read the fune ral fervice over the body, and committed it mifing youth. I must obferve, there was a to the deep. He was an amiable and prolarge fire blazing close to us, compofed of felf, on purpofe to keep the tigers off, as I ten or a dozen whole trees; I made it myhad always heard it would.

He has left near 30ccl. towards erecting a foundling hofpital at Aberdeen.

11. At Daulith, in Devonshire, aged 34, George-Anfon Byron, efq. He was a cap tain in the royal navy, and fecond fon of the late Admiral B. by whom he was introduced early into the fervice; in which, having had feveral opportunities of exerting perfonal bravery and profeffional skill, he attained a great degree of glory. Having been upon the ftations in the Weft Indies, he felt a defire of ferving in the Eaft; and, applying for a fhip going to that quarter of the globe, he was appointed to the command of the Phoenix, and failed with a small fquadron under Commodore Cornwallis, early in the year 1789. Ever active, he fought the firft occafion of affifting in the war against Tippoo Saib, and, at the very outfet, rendered a fignal fervice, by intercepting the Sultan's tranfports loaded with military stores. After this he diftinguished himself by landing fome of his cannon, and leading a party of his men to affift in reducing one of the enemy's fortreffes on the coaft of Malabar; for which fervice he was publicly applauded in the official accounts that were fent home. Un fortunately, he fell a victim to his alacrity in this war. When Gen. Abercrombie was on his march towards Seringapatam, the fhip which Capt. B. commanded lay off the mouth of a river, up which his affiftance was required to convey a part of the army, and it was neceffary that he should have an interview with the General. At the time the interview was to take place, it blew frefh, and there was a heavy fea on the bar of the river; but the service required expedition, and danger difappeared before his eagerness. A fea broke upon the boat, and overfet her. In rifing, the gunwale of the boat ftruck him twice violently upon the breaft; and, when he was taken up, it was not fuppofed he could furvive the fhock he had fuftained. He was, however, for a time reftored to life; but he was no more to be reftored to his country. The faculty did what they could to preferve him, and then ordered him to England, rather hoping than believing he could efcape fo far with life. In England he has lingered above 12 months; during which time he had experienced the mifery of witneffing the diffolution of a beau tiful, amiable, and beloved wife, who died at Bath, on the 26th of February last, at the age of 29 years; upon which event he retired with his children to Daulifh, and there furvived her only three months and a fortnight. In his public character he was brave, active, and skilful; and his Majefty has loft in him an excellent and loyal officer. In his private character he was devout without the appearance of it, fond of his family, conftant in his friendships, generous and humane. The hearts of many who read this will bear teftimony to the justice of the praife, as the heart of him who writes it bears a forrowful teftimony to the fincerity of his affliction.

12. At Aix-la-Chapelle, in his 438 year, unmarried, Sir James Barclay, baronet of Nova Scotia, a captain in the royal navy, and formerly commander of the Leander and Windfor Caftle men of war; not lefs diftinguifhed for his gallant conduct, on various occafions, than for his integrity, honour, and other amiable virtues. He was the lineal defcendant and heir of Sir Rob. Barclay, knt. of Peristoun, in Airfhire, who was created a baronet of Nova Scotia Oct. 22, 1668. He was interred with military honours in the French Walloon Proteftant church at Maeftricht. Robert Barclay, of Aix-la-Chapelle, his only brother, who married Elizabeth, the fifter of Richard Tickell, efq. one of his Majesty's commiffioners of the ftamp-office, and has iffue by her, a son and a daughter, fucceeds him in his title.

15. Suddenly, at Borrowdale, while in the chapel, aged 85, Mr. Daniel Jopfon. Till the time of his death he was never known to be fick, nor ever took phyfick.

16. At Edinburgh, William Menzies, efq. folicitor of the customs for Scotland.

18. At Moffat, whither he had gone for the recovery of his health, Alex. Rofs, efq. of Culroffie, lieutenant-colonel of the late 103dreg.

He

At Fisherrow, near Muñelburgh, in his 79th year, George Stuart, LL. D. Emeritus profeflor of humanity in the university of Edinburgh. He was admitted to that office in 1741, and retired in 1775, after having taught with reputation 34 years. He was a great master of the Latin tongue, and ufed to read lectures upon the Roman clafficks with fingular vigour and animation. was particularly fuccefsful in explaining the Roman antiquities to the higher claffes of his ftudents; and, by the dignity of his afpect and manners, infpired his hearers with an enthufiaftic admiration of the language and literature of antient Rome. By the abilities and talents which he difplayed, he proved himfelf worthy to fit in the chair which had been filled by the celebrated Lawrence Dundas. Having acquired a competent fortune, he retired from public life, expecting to spend the evening of his days in eafe and comfort. But the premature death of his only furviving fon, the late eminent Gilbert Stuart, LL.D. who was loft to him and to the literary world in 1786, and, lately, fome other domeftic calamities, particularly the death of an excellent wife, left him difconfolate and forlorn. His numerous pupils, many of whom it was his delight to befriend, and to recommend to comfortable fituations, will lament that the clofe of his life was em bittered with forrow. He was the oldest member of that celebrated feminary to which he belonged, and is fucceeded by Dr. John Hill, who was affociated with him in 1775, and is now fole profeffor of humanity in the univerfity of Edinburgh.

As he was riding, in the evening, on the road between Richmond and Gilling, his horfe took frigh, and threw him, by which his neck was diflocated, and he fuffered immediate death.Should a fhort sketch of his character be attempted, it might justly be faid, that he poffelfed a great vigour of intellect, and manlinefs of deportment. His difcernment was ready and intuitive; and he had a mind which, being naturally of a liberal cuft, was highly improved by education and converfe with the world. In private life his manners were formed to conciliate affection and efteem; and, in the public capacity in which he was placed, his conduct claimed and obta ned respect.
