On the 6th instant, in Lower Grosvenor-street, London, in her
88th year, Madame D'ARBLAY, author of "Evelina and Ceeilia'"
widow of the late Lient.-General A. PLOCHARD, Comte D'Arblay,
and second daughter of the late Charles Burney, Mus. D. What a
wide interval separates the period when we learn, from the pages
of Boswell, that clever jade, Miss Burney," made tea to Dr.
Johnson, and fearlessly entered the lists with that formidable intel-
lectual gladiatnr. " Cecilia and Evelina" raised her into the very
first class of English novelists; and, notwithstanding the rich
accessions of late years, to that branch of literature, and the
changes which have taken place in fashions and manners, " Cecilia
and Evelina" still maintain their place in the public regard. The
late Mr. Hazlitt, in an article in the Edinburgh Review, on the
British novelists, drew a character of Miss Burney, in which justice
was hardly done to her extraordinary merits. Her dialogue is
peculiarly interesting.
