THE MARQUESS OF HEADFort. Oct. 23. At Lausanne, after a few days illness, aged nearly 72, the Most Honourable Thomas Taylour, first Marquess of Headfort, second Earl Bective, of Bective-castle in the county of Meath, Viscount Headfort, and Baron Headfort of Headfort, co. Meath, and fourth Baronet of Kello in the same county; a Representative Peer of Ireland; K. P.; a Lord of the King's Bedchamber; a Governor of the County of Meath; and F.S.A.

His Lordship was born Nov. 18, 1757, the eldest son of Thomas first Earl of Bective, K. P. by the Hon. Jane Rowley, eldest daughter of the Right Hon. Hercules Rowley and Elizabeth Viscountess Longford. He was educated, it is believed, at the University of Dublin, and, when Viscount Headfort, sat in the Irish Parliament for the borough of Kello.

On the 4th of December 1778 he married Mary, only daughter and heiress of George Quin, of Quinsborough, co. Clare, Esq. (uncle of the first Earl of Dunraven,) by Caroline, daughter of Sir Henry Cavendish, the first Baronet of Doveridge in Derbyshire, and aunt to the present Lord Waterpark.

His Lordship became Earl of Bective by his father's death, Feb. 14, 1795. His influence in Ireland was very considerable, his estates being valued in 1800 at 16,000l. per annum. He was a warm supporter of the Union; was one of the twenty-four original Representative Peers, then elected; and was advanced in the same year to the Marquisate of Headfort, by patent dated Dec. 29, 1800.

The Marquess of Headfort was elected a Knight of St. Patrick in 1807, and invested with the insignia worn by the then lately deceased Duke of Leinster. He was sworn a Lord of the King's Bedchamber, March 10, 1812; and he enjoyed the personal friendship of his present Majesty.

In politics the Marquess was a whig, and a pro-Catholic. In 1806 he laid the first stone of a Roman Catholic chapel at Kello, and presented to it a beautiful altar-piece, the work of an Italian artist. His Lordship rarely delivered his sentiments within the walls of Parliament, and for several years had lived in comparative retirement on the continent.

By his Marchioness before named, who survived him, his Lordship had two sons and two daughters : 1. Lady Mary Taylour, Lady of the Bedchamber to

the Princess Augusta; 2. Thomas, now Marquess of Headfort, and Knight in Parliament for the County of Meath; he married in 1822 Olivia, only daughter of Sir John Stevenson, Knt. and widow of Edward Tuite Dalton, Esq. and has a son, Thomas Earl of Bective, born in 1822, and other children; 3. Lady Elizabeth-Jane Taylour; and 4. Lord George Quin, who assumed that name on succeeding to the estates of his maternal ancestors; he married in 1814 Lady Georgiana-Charlotte Spencer, 3d daughter of the present Earl Spencer, K. G. and by that lady, who died in 1823, has three surviving children, two sons and a daughter.

GEN. SIR J. P. DALRYMPLE, BART. Oct. 12. At Bath, aged 51, MajorGen. Sir John Pringle Dalrymple, fifth Baronet of Hailes, co. Haddington.

The house of Dalrymple of Hailes, of which Sir John was the last male descendant, was the youngest branch of the widely-spread family of the Earls of Stair. The first of Hailes was Sir John's great-grandfather, the Hon. David Dalrymple, fifth son of James first Viscount Stair, and younger brother to the first Earl.* The Hon. David Dal

* It is remarkable, that until the present decease there were in this family no less than five Baronets, all descended, in the male line, from the first Viscount Stair, who died in 1695: 1. Lieut.-Gen. Sir John Hamilton Dalrymple, descended from the Hon. Sir James Dalrymple, the Viscount's second son, created a Baronet April 28, 1698; 2. Sir Hew Dalrymple-Hamilton, the representative of the Hon. Sir Hew Dalrymple, the Viscount's third son, created a Baronet at the same time as his brother; 3. Sir Robert Dalrymple-HornElphinstone, descended from the third son of the same Hon. Sir Hew, and himself created a Baronet in 1827; 4. Gen. Sir Hew-Whiteford Dalrymple, descended from the fourth son of the same Hon. Sir Hew, and himself created a Baronet in 1814; and 5. Major-Gen. Sir JohnPringle Dalrymple (the subject of this memoir) descended from the Hon. Sir David Dalrymple, the Viscount's fifth son, created a Baronet in 1700. The families of each branch are detailed in the Annual Peerage, so excellently compiled by the Misses Innes.

rymple was Lord-Advocate of Scotland from 1709 to 1720; and one of the Commissioners for adjusting the articles of the Union. His grandson, Sir David the third Baronet, was the celebrated Scottish Judge so well known by his official title of Lord Hailes. Lord Hailes died without issue in 1792, was succeeded by his nephew Sir James, the elder brother of the Baronet now deceased.

Sir John Pringle Dalrymple was born Feb. 28, 1778, younger son of John Dalrymple, Esq. who served the office of Lord Provost of Edinburgh, by AnneYoung, daughter of Walter Pringle, Esq. of St. Kitt's. He entered the army in 1790 as Ensign in the 40th regiment; was promoted to a Lieutenancy in 1792, and to a Captaincy in the 19th foot in 1793, which he immediately exchanged for a commission in the 3d Guards. In 1794 he went to Flanders, where he served till the return of the British in the following year. He succeeded to a company, with the rank of Lieut.-Colonel, Dec. 6, 1798.

In 1800, by the loss of his brother Sir James at sea, he succeeded to the title of Baronet.

In 1805 Sir John accompanied the expedition to Hanover; and in July 1807 went to Zealand, and was present at the siege of Copenhagen. He obtained the brevet of Colonel in 1808, and of MajorGeneral in 1811; and in 1814, served for a short time on the Staff of Scotland.

Sir Johu married Dec. 28, 1807, Mary, second daughter of Edward Rushworth, Esq. of Farringford Hill, in the Isle of Wight, and M.P. for Newport, by the younger daughter and coheiress of Leonard last Lord Holmes; but had no issue. Sir John had, in consequence of his marriage, resided in the vicinity of his wife's relations. His seat was the Villetta, near Lymington; and he was an active Magistrate for the County of Southampton.

SIR WILLIAM ARBUTHNOT, BART. Sept. 18. Suddenly, of apoplexy, aged 62, Sir William Arbuthnot, of Edinburgh, Bart.

Sir William was born Dec. 24, 1766, the son of Robert Arbuthnot, of Haddo, by Mary, daughter of John Urquhart, of Cromarty. He served the office of Lord Provost of Edinburgh in 1822, and, baving in that capacity had the honour of entertaining his Majesty on his visit to that capital, was raised to a Baronetcy by patent dated April 3, 1823.

To abilities of a high order, and knowledge of great extent, Sir William Arbuthnot added a degree of good

nature which it is hardly an exaggeration to call matchless. It was not confined to his own happy fire-side, but was not less his peculiar charreteristic in every quarter where his influence could be useful. To have entertained his Sovereign in the city over which be presided in such a manner as not only to gratify the illustrious personage whom it was so essentially his duty to please, but also to satisfy the whole mass of his countrymen, that the reception given to their King was suitable to the dignity of the nation so highly honoured, was a very important service, and such as will not soon be forgotten.

Sir William married Sept. 17, 1800, Anne, daughter of John Alves, M.D. of Shipland, and had issue seven sons and two daughters: 1. Sir Robert-Keith Arbuthnot, who has succeeded to the title; 2. John-Alves; 3. George Clark; 4. Archibald-Francis; 5. William-Urquhart; 6. Edward-Jones; 7. HenryDundas; 8. Mary; and 9. Anne.

LIEUT.-GEN. FYERS.

Oct. 27. In Dublin, Lieut.-General William Fyers, Commanding Engineer in Ireland, and the oldest General of Engineers in the British service.

He commenced his military duties in 1773, as Ensign in the corps of Engineers in the new works on Portsmouth-common, and was immediately after appointed Second Lieutenant. In 1774 he was ordered to Plymouth, and in the following year he joined the army under Sir William Howe, at Boston. He served in America during the whole war, and was present in most of the principal actions. In a year after the peace he was stationed at Halifax in Nova Scotia. He was promoted to be First Lieutenant 1779, and Capt.-Lieutenant 1787. From Halifax he returned to England, and was employed in the Portsmouth district till 1788, when he was ordered to Gibraltar. In that garrison he afterwards succeeded Gen. Moore, as Commanding Engineer, and remained in that situation for twelve years, until in 1807 he was ordered to England, and appointed Deputy Inspector-general of Fortifications. Whilst at Gibraltar be was promoted to be Captain 1793, brevet Major 1795, Lieut.-Colonel 1800, Lieut.-Col. of Engineers same year, and Colonel of the same 1806. In 1809 he served as Colonel and Commanding Engineer with the expedition to Walcheren. In 1811 he received the rank of Major-General, and in the same year be was appointed Commanding Engineer in Ireland. He obtained the brevet of Lieut.-General in 1819.

THE REV. JOHN GUARD, B. D. The Rev. John Guard, B. D. whose death is recorded in p. 378, was a man of excellent natural abilities, of great literary accomplishments, and a sound classic; and of a disposition the most kind, affectionate, and generous.

He was the eldest son of the late John and Susan Guard, of Honiton, in the county of Devon, and educated at Exeter school, under the late Rev. Mr. Marshall, of whom he was always a favourite pupil. In the year 1782 he was admitted a member of Queen's College, Oxford, and thence, in the same year, elected a Scholar of Corpus Christi, where he was much distinguished for his college exercises, and particularly for the skill and elegance with which he wrote Latin verse, the construction of which, as the late Public Orator, Mr. Crowe, testified, no man of his time better understood. Eventually he became a Fellow and Tutor of that Society; to whose exertions in which latter capacity some distinguished scholars of the present day are indebted.

During his residence at Oxford, a period of about seventeen years, spent with profit to others and pleasure to himself, he was nominated by Bishop Porteus one of the Preachers of his Majesty's Chapel at Whitehall, which, though an annual office, he retained for a much longer term.

In the year 1799 he retired from University duties to reside at Pottern in Wiltshire; about which time he was collated by his friend Dr. Douglas, late Bishop of Salisbury, to a Prebendal stall in that cathedral.

In 1802 he accepted from the same patron the vicarage of Minty in Wiltshire. This however he soon resigned for the rectory of Pembridge, on the presentation of the President and Fellows of Corpus Christi. Here his literary habits were a source of never-failing recreation; and his taste and talents displayed themselves in a great variety of compositions. These he was never induced to offer to the world, being chiefly written with a view to indulge the solicitations of private friendship, rather than with any desire of engaging public reputation, or of courting public praise. In this beautiful retirement he passed the remainder of his days, having been rector of that parish twenty-seven years.

ROBERT ROBERTSON, M. D. Lately. At Greenwich, aged 87, Robert Robertson, M. D. F. R. S. and S. A. a Director of Greenwich Hospital, and GENT. MAG. December, 1829.

This was published in an octavo volume 1790; the writer rejected all the systematical divisions of fevers, and maintained" that febrile infection, or idiopathic fever, is always and every where the same, and more or less infectious" (see an article in the Monthly Review, vol. x. pp. 568-572). He afterwards pursued the subject in "Observations on the Jail, Hospital, or Ship Fever, made in various parts of Europe and America," 1792, 8vo; and also published, "Synopsis Morborum; or, Observations on the principal Diseases incidental to Seamen and Soldiers," 1810, two volumes 8vo; and some articles in Duncan's Annals of Medicine.

He was the author of the well-known treatises on finance, the sinking fund, &c. in opposition to the calculations of Dr. Price. His publications were entitled "An Introduction to Merchandize," 1777, two vols. 8vo; "System of Arithmetic and Book-keeping," 1788, 12mo; and "An Enquiry into the rise and progress, the redemp. tion and present state of management of the National Debt of Great Britain," 8vo, 1813.
