Lately. M. Foyatier, the sculptor, whose chisel has produced "Spartacus," "Cincinnatus," "Joan of Arc," &c. He was carried off suddenly by an attack of apoplexy, while busy in his studio. Galignani relates of the deceased that he was born at Bussieres (Loire).

His parents being very poor, he was early engaged as a shepherd-boy by a neighbouring farmer, and while watching his sheep occupied himself in modelling various objects in clay. Some of these having attracted attention, he was sent to the school of Fine Arts at Lyons, and there obtained the first prize for sculpture in 1816. The statue of "Spartacus," now in the garden of the Tuileries, was his greatest success, and is said to have been the result of an accidental circumstance. When studying at Rome, he one day had for model a Transteverino, of herculean build, and having kept him posing an unreasonable time in one attitude, the man suddenly threw himself into the posture of a slave breaking his chains, and exclaimed, "Tu mi secchi!" which may be freely translated by, "You are sawing my back!" Foyatier was so struck by the aspect of his model, that he begged him to remain as long as he could in that attitude. The man did so, and the sculptor dashed off the model, which he afterwards worked up into Spartacus.

At Great Yarmouth, aged 43, Robert Hales, known as the Norfolk Giant. He was born at West Somerton, a village a few miles from Yarmouth, in 1820, and came from a family remarkable for their great stature, his father, a farmer, being 6 ft. 6 in. in height, and his mother 6 ft. An ancestor of his mother's was said to have been that famous warder of luff King Hal" who stood 8 ft. 4 in. in height. Of such Patagonian parents the progeny were worthy; the boys averaging 6 ft. 5 in. each, and the girls of Amazonian development, averaging 6 ft. 3 in. each. Robert was the flower of the flock, and stood 7 ft. 6 in., weighing 452 lbs. One of his sisters with whom he exhibited some years ago, was 7 ft. 2 in., but she died in 1842, being then only twenty years of age. Hales was stout in proportion to his height, though somewhat clumsily put together. When in his prime he was 64 in. round the chest, 62 round the waist, 36 across the shoulders, and 21 round the calf of his leg. During his career he visited America, and also several continental capitals, and having been seen by Her Majesty, he was presented with a gold watch and chain, of which he was particularly proud, and which he wore to the day of his death.

the Church of England, and to disseminate Church principles throughout the land; and this was ever his aim from that time until his illness prevented him from taking any part in his favourite labour, and his constitution gave way beneath the harassing strain to which it had been subjected for so many years."

At Barnes, Surrey, aged 65, Mr. J. Duffield Harding, a most eminent teacher of drawing in London, and one of the most conspicuous water-colour painters of his time. He was born at Deptford in 1798, his father being an artist, and pupil of Paul Sandby. Young Harding was apprenticed to an engraver, but he also studied as an artist, and at the age of eighteen he received the silver medal from the Society of Arts. He now became a teacher of drawing, but he was not content with merely touching up the exercises of his pupils. He was one of the first also to work on stone with a brush instead of a crayon, whereby greater facility in labour was ensured. His remarkable work, "Sketches at Home and Abroad," which he published in 1836, was a splendid proof of his ability. In his "Park and Forest" (folio), the studies of trees are inimitable for fidelity and brilliancy-true to nature, and brilliant in artistic effect. Mr. Harding was one of the principal members of the Old Society of Painters in Water-colours. If he was not the first to adopt the process of using body colour instead of transparent colour, he was the first who carried it out to any great extent, and it has since been adopted in all figure and landscape painting.

He served for nearly forty years, and was present at the battles of the Nile and Trafalgar, but what gave him a local celebrity was that in the year 1784 he was coxswain to Lord Nelson, who then commanded the "Boreas" in the West Indies. He had for many years past resiled at Newton, a hale and hearty old man, much respected by his neighbours. He married his second wife, who survives him, at the ripe age of ninety-two. He retained his mental faculties to the last, and was, up to within a few days of his death, as social and cheerful as ever. On the occasion of the marriage of the Prince and Princess of Wales he took a prominent part in the general rejoicing, and on the 19th of the following May he was driven round the town and suburbs of Newton in commemoration of his 103rd birthday.
