SIR W. E. PARRY, Lieutenant-Governor of Green-
wich Hospital, died at Ems, in Germany, on Satur-
day last. Sir Edward had long been in declining
health, and his death was not unexpected. The

the navy. In 1818 he accompanied Captain Ross in
his expedition to the Arctic regions, and was
knighted in 1820 for his services in the Polar
regions. The late admiral was a D.C.L., a Fellow of

captain, November 8, 1821; and rear-admiral, June
4, 1852. It is stated to be the intention of the
Admiralty in future to confer the appointment of
Lieutenant Governor of Greenwich Hospital on a
captain, instead of a flag officer.

Faringdon, Berks, took place on Monday, at the
residence of his brother, the Rev. Dr. Pusey, at
Christ Chureh, in Oxford University. The deceased
was seized with a paralytic stroke in November last,
while staying with his brother, and has been unable
to be removed ever since. The deceased gentleman

first Earl of Radnor. He was born June 25, 1799,
and succeeded to the estates on the death of his
father in 1828. He married, October 4, 1822, Lady
Emily Frances Theresa Herbert., second daughter of
the late Earl of Carnarvon. Mr. Pusey entered
Parliament in 1830 as member for Chippenham ; in
1831 he represented Cashel. He unsuccessfully coi.e
tested the county of Berks in 1832, but succeeded in
1835, and retained his seat until the general election
in 1852, when, being threatened with an opposition,
he retired, and Mr. G. H. Vansittart was elected in
his place. Mr. Pusey was distinguished as an agri-
culturist, and was the president of the Royal
Agricultural Society of England last year, but, owing
to indisposition, was unable to preside at the meet-
iag at Lincoln, and the Earl of Chichester officiated
in his absence. He edited the journals of this
society, and was one of its chief contributors. He
was eminent as a practical agriculturist, and gave
every encouragement to new implements and
manures, and wan a great advocate for combining
practice with science,
