ley, 111 Ni all the friends and misfires of that gallant Officer.
The Treacle and 11l Masers hitherto nerd by the advertisers,

panics to whom they have been administered, exciting
nausea, disgust, sad other iery ilieagt eeable sensations.

mood therefore be of a superior 11-ivicor to what they lime
hitherto dealt in, as Sir Arthur and his friends and relative■
Lave no appetite for this common stuff, which is foiter,l to be
*spurious composition, and precisely of the same kind as
that administered to the late 11r. Fox, to Lord Henry Petty,
Lord Holland, ix. when in Ofißee, until their stomachs
turned ■Ralust it, and they were seized with sickness and
roitiaq.

last died, at Froxtield, Somersetshire,
the Rev. Ctestetet CRUTTWELL I a genUeinau
whose various literary performances, for labour,
extent, and utility, have rarely been equalled, and,
when regarded as the productions of an unassisted
valetudinariau, have perhaps never been surpassed.
Mr. C. first appeared as an author in his edition of
Bivkap Wilam's Bible sad Works, to which he has
pnlixed a Life; and in the splendid edition of the
B iale, lie has inserted Collation* Coin the various
Teats; an employment winch first directed his
thoughts to that most laborious undertaking, hhi
gi L'oncordeuece of Parallel 'Feria of Seriptare;" a
work which, according to the usual computation
of tune and assiduity, would he stifficient to oc-
cupy the life of an ordinary man; and when it is con-
sidered that lie printed it iu his own house, and ma-
rected the press us he proceeded, some idea may be
forined of his industry and perseverance. To the
'nub merits of tins eierfonnanee, as a most accurate
compilation, the clerical professioc will readily sub.
sinus ; mid theists' and public encomium of the
Bishop of Lincolo has stamped it with its due value.
Scarcely had he recovered limn a severe
which his incessant apOicatioa had produced, and
which obliged him to have recourse to the baths of
St. Amend, in Flanders, when he projected the
scheme of his Chareesed Gasetteer ; in the ex(!cll-
ticm of which he spout ten years of unwearied dili-
gence ; the sale of the fl.st edition sufficiently
proved the fmournisle idea in which it wes regarded
by the public; u,il he had just gone through the
laborious office of editing a second edition, com-
puting 30,000 new articles., when, on the road to
his isative town, Wok ligham, in Berkshire, he was
arrested bramsdrlco illness which terminated fa-
tally before medical assistance could be procured.
Warm, generous, and sincere iu his private cha-
racter, Mr. C. had eradiated the et.teein and af-
fection of a numerous circle of friends : secluded,
iudeed, of late years. by his ill state of health, his
society had been principally confined to his more
immediate connexions : to them he was most af-
fectionately attached, and exhibited in all his social
relat:ons tlie kindest and most benevolent heart;
by them he is deeply!. arid sincerely regretted ; and
they feel a melancholy ••atisfaction, while,record-
ing the hits they have sustained, in offering this
bnitible tri!iute to his talents and his virtue,. lie
d.ed in Ins 65th year.
