On the 12th instant, after a lingering illness, in the 72nd
year of his age, Mr. JOHN BACON SAWREY MORRITT, of
Rokeby-park, Yorkshire. He was one of the earliest and most
extensive Greek travellers in the present generation ; and,
after two years spent in the interesting countries in the East,
he returned with a mind replete with classical information and
a taste for every liberal art. It was during his residence abroad
that Bryant promulgated his fanciful theories on the site of
Troy. On his return, with Chevalier and others, he entered
keenly into the Trojan controversey, and became one of the
mosts uccessful supporters of Homer, and able vindicators of his
location of the Troad. His two dissertations are familiar to
every classical scholar, and went as far towards the settlement
of that vexata questio as any of the productions of that period.
He puhlished, also, translations from the minor Greek poets,
and was the author of articles in The Quarterly Review, and of
pamphlets called forth by the passing events of the day. His
large fortune he always regarded as an important trust com-
mitted for a time to his keeping for the benefit of others, as
well as for his own gratification, and he was liberal, charitable,
and benevolent. Such qualities recommended him as a friend
to most of the literary and leading characters of the day.
Among these may be enumerated, more especially Wilberforce,
Sir Walter Scott, Sir Humphrey Davy, Sir W. Gell, Southey,
Lockhart, W. Stewart Rose, Payne Knight, and the late Earl
of Harewood, a friend who loved him as a brother. His at-
tachment to Church and State placed him always forward and
conspicuous in the ranks of Conservative politicians, and while
in Parliament, as the member for Beverley, Northallerton, and
Shaftesbury, he was the steady supporter of those principles.
He married Miss Stanley, sister of Colonel Stanley, so many
years the respected member for the county of Lancaster, and
neatly allied to the illustrious house of Derby, but he had been
for many years a widower. We cannot close our article in
more appropriate language than by a quotation from the in-
valuable diary of Sir Walter Scott, who must be admitted to
have been no mean judge of mankind, and who was a very in-
timate friend for a quarter of a century :—.• Rokeby, May so,
1828.—Morritt looks well and easy in his mind, which I am
delighted to see. He is now one of my oldest, and, I believe,
one of my most sincere friends; a man unequalled in the
mixture of sound good sense, high literary cultivation, and the
kindest and sweetest temper that ever graced a human bosom...
Same day, at his house, Mr. JOSEPH THOMPSON, victualler,
Park-lane, aged 42 years, much respected.

On the 13th instant, aged 23, JAMES, youngest son of Mr.
GEORGE HILTON, flour dealer, Kirkdale.
Same day, in Pitt street, aged 70, Mr. WILLIAM MORGAN,
much respected by all who knew him.

Ou the 14th instant, at his lodgings, Cookson-street, aged 88
years, Captain JOSIAS TUCKER. Deceased was forty years

Thomas Wilson, from Liverpool for Greenland. The William

King's Dock.

NAH, wife of Mr. JOSEPH PINDER, aged 45 years.
