' SIR JOSEPH BANKS. [Frew "TM As NefitOltMeirestite.") MEMOIR OF SIR JOS. RANKS. BART. (1 C.R. PC . AND PRESIDENT Or THE ROYAL ACADEMY. (Continued figs our Ayer of 77trroday lad.) flawing ordered thei► lto wait for them at Tobirmore, a very floe harbour on the Moll bide, they joined her, after giatel)ing their curiosity he M accu►ate investigation. and !proceeded on thrir trayag•, which was now directed through seas h i . therto unexplored by the rye of philosophic science. . They !roamed the Orkneys and Shetland bloods without any particular inv►stigattutt; being auttoes to have the whole returner before them for the ere. osination of Iceland, whose rocky coasts promised • them great arquivitions in ichthyology, whilst its : rotenaive plain*, under the rapid said exuberant fertility of the northern hemisphere, would present a new scene in the botanical world. On the 28th of August. 1772, they arrived off the coast of Iceland. and anchored near to Karaite& front whence they pro , reded to investigate the na tural curiosities of that ratraorilinary, and then little known, island. Their journey to Mount Heckle occupied twelve drys, the distance Kiog considerable, and between three and blur hundred miler of it being over an uninterrupted track of lava. Mr. Koski and Isis party, on the 2411 i of Septeu►ber, were the firm that ever had reached the summit of that celebrated volcano; the attempt having until then been prevented, partly through superstition, and partly from the extreme ddErulty of memo, previous to an eruptiou which bad taken place some time before. Those who have a curiosity nn this suhkct, may enic.ult Van Troil's Letters, front which we sh a ll select only one extraordinary fact, that when at the summit. which was • spice of ground about eight yards in breadth, and twenty in length, entirely free fr m Maui, but the sand quite wet from the snuw having recently melted away, they expert. euced at one mud the same time a high degree of heat and cold ; for in the air Falirrnliries thermo. meter was cunatantly at 24 deg. yet when set on the ground it rose to 153 deg. Alter completely investigating every thing cu. 'ions, they left Iceland, and arrived at Edinburgh in November, from whence they set off by laud fur London. It is gratifying to reflect that the inquiries (door scientific and benevolent fellow-countrymen were not confined to objects of natural history alone, in his hyperborean excursion. We understand that Iceland wee considerably indebted to him, even after his return, for various benefits derived from his communications with, and representations to, the Danish 'merriment, in aid of extensive plans fur the amelioration of many circumstances con nected with the political and social state of its po pulation. The ohjects which Mr. Banks had in visiting foreign countries, seem not to have led him to the Continent; to him France and Italy had no pecw her charms: but content with his native home, yet anxious to embellish ■ud improve it, he now paned Ins time principally in Loudon, or at his paternal seat in Lincolnshire, surrounded by men of letters, and by ',emus of the first rank and fortune, cor responding with the most eminent foreign natu ralists, attending sedulously to the meetings of the Royal Society, forming a splendid collection of natural curiosities ; and, above all, didicating his time and fortune to scientific benevolence, and ju. diciously applying the discoveries of philosophy to the important uses of human life. Sir John Pringle having retired from the office of President of the Roy■l Society in 1777, Mr. Banks was called to fill the vacant chair, upon the detiesof which, however, he did not enter until the ensuing year. when his ample fortune enabled him, as his generous spirit prompted, to commence a system by which his house became, through a long series of years, a scene of hospitality, and of more than benevolent kindness to genius of every coun try, and of every rank in society. His house we', in fact, the common resort of men of science from all parts of the world ; and upon Sunday evenings, in general, during the sitting of Parliament, and of the Royal Society, his apartments were open to his friends, and to all strangers of fair character; a decent appearance, and quiet, though not polish ed manners, being all that was required in addition to genius, to procure for it a liberal reception. A letter from Falmouth says—" The conv i cts on board the lige, now in this port bound to New South Wales, laid a plan to take possession of the ship ; but, fortunately, their scheme was discovered last evening. and ten tit the ringleaders, whose mana cles had been sawn through, were secured ■nd heavily ironed."
