At Green Gill, Penrith, Christopher, son of John MARVELL, yeoman, aged 21 years. 

 

At Holbeck, near Lorton, on Monday last, Mr. John WOOD. He went out on the fell to look after some sheep, and in two hours was found

On Saturday last, at Oatlands, parish of Dissington, Mr. John ADAMSON, formerly master of the brigantine called the Allison, of

At Dumfries, on Saturday last, Mrs. RICHARDSON, daughter of the late Rev. William WRIGHT, minister of Newabbey.—Same place, in her
80th year, Margaret, widow of the late John OUGHTERSON, Esq. of Milnthird. 

 

At Dumfries, Andrew BISHOP, aged 88, a very eccentric character. 

 

In London on the 17th inst. in the 72d year of his age, after a short illness, George EDWARDS, Esq. Doctor of Medicine, of Barnard
Castle, in the County of Durham; a gentleman of eminent literary talents, and the author of many important political works. As early
as the year 1788 he published his "Agrandisement of Great Britain," in which, among other very important plans, that of a property
tax was first suggested as applicable to the exigencies of the State, and, at that time, most strongly recommended as a substitute
for all taxes oppressive to industry, in order to allow a more full development of the national energies. 

 

At Maxwelltown, at an advanced age, Mrs. Thomas TURNER. 

 

At Berkeley, Glostershire, on Sunday last, suddenly, Dr. JENNER, the discoverer of vaccination, in the 74th year of his age—a man
who deserves a national statue. 

 

In Douglas, Isle of Man, Mr. Thomas KAIGHIN, aged 77.—Lately, in Peel, at the advanced age of 92 years, Mr. John TAYLOR.

tailor.—At Ramsey, aged 36, Mr. William LACE, Riding Officer. 

 

On Monday, at his house in Bedford-row, London, Charles HUTTON, LL. D., F. R. S., &c. in the 86th year of his age. This venerable
character will be remembered with gratitude as long as useful science is duly appreciated. Perhaps no name can be mentioned, either
ancient or modern, that has so successfully promoted those branches of mathematical knowledge, most conducive to the practical
purposes of life, as Doctor HUTTON. He has been an eminent author for upwards of sixty years, and, during forty of that period, he
discharged the arduous duty of Professor of Mathematics, at the Royal Military Academy, at Woolwich, with the highest honour to
himself and advantage to the country. His improvements in military tactics have greatly promoted the success of the British
Artillery and Engineers for the last half century, and have even been acknowledged and adopted by several of the first Professors of
the Continent. 

 

At London, in the poor-house of St. James's Clerkenwell, Robert TRISTRAN, a pauper, who some time since were [sic] taken into that
asylum, in a state of apparent destitution, from a court at Cow-Cross. After his death, there was found in the rags which covered
him on his entry to the work-house, 13 sovereigns, 3 watches, and his will, bequeathing £1650 in the funds, to Mary Ann THOMPSON,
his natural daughter, described to be about 14 years old. This girl has not yet been traced.
