Messrs. Boulton and Watt have lately, in con-
nnciion with their sons, established fountcrv M
Smethwick, short distance from Soho. Here
that powerful agent is employed, as it we're, to
multiply ITSELF and its various parts are eabricat-
cd and adapted together with the same re-n!ari.
~, neatness. and expedition. which distinguish,
AL the operations of their manufactory. Those
engines are afterwards distributed to all parts of
the Kingdom by the Birmingham canal, which
communicates with a wet dock belonging to the
toundery.
In national view. Mr.. Boulton's undertakings
are highly valuable and important. By collect
ing around him artists of various DESCRIPTIONS.
rival talents have been called forth (: and, by
successive competitions, have been mutinlied to
an extent highly beneficial to the public A
barren heath las been covered with plenty and
population; and these works, which in their in
fancy were little known and attended to, now CO.
yer several acres, give emp nyment to many more
than 600 persons. and are indubitablv the first of
the ~ kind in Europe
No expence has been spared to render these
works. uniform and handsome i'm archtecture
as well ss neat and commodious. The same lib,
erai spirit and taste has the great and worthy pro-
prietor gradually exercised towards a,iioiaine.
gardens and pleasure grounds, which, ut th,.
same time that they form an agreeable separati.
on from his own residence, renders Soho a much
admired scene ofpicturcsuue beauty.
Inc house, which was before much too small
for the hospitable purposes of its generous own.
er. has lately been considerably enlarged
TO comment upon the private character of a
gentleman in Boulton's situation would be a use.
less task; we shall therefore only observe, chat
as his great and expanded mind formed and
hro't toperfection, the wonderful works we have
brlefy endeavored to describe, so he felt no or,
er felicity, than that of diliusing happiness to all
around him
Mr.. Boutton was not only Fellow Of the Row.
! al Societies ofLondon and Edinburgh, but like.
wise OF that which bears the Imperial Title Of
the Free and Economical at St pe,ersburgh, and
many other foreign institutions Oft highest ce-
lebrity in Europe
For along time previous TO his decease, he had
been confined to his room by illness, and his dis.
solution daily expected-His memory will aver
remain dear to the British nation, whose glory
was advanced in proportion to his own fame
| Whlle we commemorate those great men who
have sought their country's honor in the fields OF
war, we ought not to omit paying Just tribute OF
| applause to those who have promoted arts. in
dustry. and commerce, and d,Irused plenty and
