The lobe GiORGRSAVILLS CARRY had upwards of
forty years supported himself in the chara6er of,a
public Leaurer in this Country, and was in ttie
sixty-fourth year of his age when he died. He was
the son of the celebrated HARRY CA REY, a success-
ful comic writer in the earlier part of the last cen-
tury, who though often in great distress, and the
author'of many convivial and festive songS,- never
employed,his muse in opposition to the interests of
morality. It has been long understood that HARRY.
CAREY was the author of the tune and words of
God save the King." No other person has ever
laid claim to this popular composition. He was the
avowed anthor of 'the 'words and air' of the well-
known song " Of alt the Girls that are so smart,"
which INeLsoms and other singers brought again
into vogue. Nor HARRY CARRY, like many others
who have no regular profession, and' devote thean-selvea to the MuSes, was at .:last reduced to such
diiitress that he did not wait for Nature to relieve
him from the I:trirthen of life, and 'when he was
forinchlead, 'had only a halfpenny in his pocket.
How much is it to be regretted that the man whoSe
song has so often aftbrded pleaiure to loyal and pa-
triotic hearts, and which has at length become the
chief national strain, should himself have fallen a
victitn'to'poverty and despair !----Grotton SAYS E
CARRY, who Was a posthumous child, inherited the
misfortunes of his father, but he inherited also" his
talents in a great degree, though they took another
dire&ion. He inherited too his moral qualities; for
though he wrote a vast number of lyric compositions,
they are all intended to awaken patriotic, generous,
and amiable emotions. • He was at first a Printer;
be attempted the Stage early in lite, but did not
display Such abilities 'as encouraged him to persevere
in theatrical pursuits ; but though he went through
various vicissitudes of fortune, he always maintained
a decent appearance, and supported the charatiter of
an honest mane He possessed musical taste and
talents that would have raised him to eminence
he had cultivated them with diligence, or bad not
been'obliged " to provide for the dn.), that was pass,
ing over his bead.' His death may be considered 114
a fortunate event for him, if we may-not presume
to ascribe it to the kindness of ProVidefice, tia- the
infirmities of age were gathering' upon him, and -if
he had lived much longer, he could not, of course;
have subsisted by his talents, but must 'have sunk
intP-Orid of thu common lisviurrig of miqfnrhivs.
