B. captain. general and governor in chief of his majesty's Leeward Islands, in the 69th year of his age. He was a nobleman much endeared in private life, and in his public capacity esteemed and revered. His family were originally from Devonshire; but but soon after the civil wars, and immediately upon the issue of the fatal battle of Worcester, fled to the West Indies, where most of them since remained. At a very early age his lordship discovered those shining talents which elevated him in life. After making the tour of Europe, on the general election of members of parliament in 1768, his lordship became the representative for the borough of Shaftesbury, and served in the successive parliaments of 1774, and 1780, for Camelford and Plympton. In 1772 his lordship received the honour of the order of the Bath, and died senior knight of the order. In 1774 he was appointed captaingeneral and governor in chief of the Leeward Islands, and continued in that station until 1775, when his lordship returned to England, and was appointed clerk of the board of Green Cloth, in which depart. ment he remained during the existence of it. In October 1795, his lordship was advanced to the peerage of the kingdom of Ireland, and created barou Lavington; which title, in consequence of his lordship's dying without heirs, is now extinct. In 1795 his lordship was again elected a member of the British parliament for the borough of Woodstock; and in 1801 was again appointed captain-general of the Leeward Islands, and sworn a member of his majesty's most honourable privy council.-Lord Lavington married mademoiselle Francoise Lambertine, baroness de Kolbel, of a noble Saxon family, daughter of Frederick Maximilian baron de Kolbel, a general in the imperial service.

Mr. John Mirehouse, of Mire Sike, in Loweswater, Cumberland, in his 102d year. A provincial journal informs us, that, on October 19th, 1805, which was the anniversary of his birth, and the completion of his century, this person received a very numerous party of his neighbours (all his juniors") seated in a new oak chair, and cloathed in a new coat, which, he pleasantly observed, might, with care taken, serve his life-time. He possessed in an emineut degree all his faculties, sight excepted. His memory seemed perfect to the last; for he occasionally spoke with the same accuracy of recent transactions (a singular circumstance!) as he had been accustomed to do in relating occurrences of former times, which he had either witnessed himself, or heard detailed by contemporaries at a period so remote as that of at least ninety years. The deceased was married in the 21st year of his age, and was the father of five sons and one daughter. He was of a remarkably cheerful disposition; and, during the course of so long a life, it is not known that he ever had the least disagreement with his neighbours or acquaintance. funeral was attended by an immense concourse of people, all emulous of shewing their respect to the memory of one whom they had individually esteemed while living, and whose death, though "in full time," deprived their vicinity of so venerable an ornament; and also for the example of one who had “ kept inuo cency: cency, and taken heed unto the thing that is right;, such as (alone) shall bring a man peace at the last." His family furnishes such an instance of longevity as is scarcely to be met with. His father and mother were born within a month of each other. The former died at the age, of 95, leaving a widow of the same age, who attained her 100th year. He had three sisters, each of whom died in her 824 year; and a fourth sister, Mrs. Margaret Longmire, widow, of Trushbank, in Loweswater, died on Tuesday, July 14th, in her 93d year. 3.
