Sir Robert Sheffield was Commander in 1486, 2 Henry VII. against the Earl of Lincoln and his adherents, over whom he gained a victory; in 1512, 3 Henry VIII. he was M. P. for Lincolnshire, and Speaker of the House of Com mons. His grandson, by an heiress of the house of Zouch of Codnor, was Edmund Sheffield, who in 1547, 1st Edward VI. was created Lord Sheffield, of Butterwick in Lincolnshire. This nobleman's grandson, Edmund, third Lord, was in 1625, the first of Charles I. advanced to the dignity of Earl of Mulgrave. Ibid. b.

The late Hugh Palmer, esq. was 23 years old. His remains have been brought to Englaud, and interred in the family vault in Stogursey church. P. 499. a. Lieut. Samuel Leeke was the eldest son of the late Sam. Leeke, esq. of Havant. A fleet of the Enemy's armed vessels were discovered entering Puerto Santa Maria, near Cadiz, Nov. 2, and a signal was made for the British gun-vessels to attack. Lieut. L. commanded one of them, and most gallantly led the way into the centre of the Enemy's fleet. This example of bravery proved fatal to him, being wounded by a musket-ball, which soon Occasioned his death, and deprived his friends of a beloved, good young man, and his country of a valuable officer, whose good conduct ever secured to him the approbation of his superiors in rank, and whose past actions gave great hopes of a brilliant career in the profession he had chosen. He had just completed his 21st year. To have been thus early cut off, is the source of great affliction to his mother and family. To alleviate in some measure their distress, and as a memorial of Lieut. L's bravery, his next brother has been promoted to the rank of a Lieutenant. P. 501. a. Johann Zoffanij, or, as he was sometimes called, Sir Johann Zoffanij, was born at Frankfort; and arrived in England to study and exercise the arts, as a portrait and historical painter, about 1764. During the early part of his residence in this country, he suffered much from the inconvenience of low finances, and the want of sufficient encouragement; .but from these evils he was rescued by Lord Barrington, who sat to him for his portrait, and afterwards honoured bim with his patronage and acquaintance. Soon after, he visited Italy, with recommendations from his Majesty to the Grand Duke of Tuscany; and while at Florence, he painted the celebrated picture of the Florence gallery. At his return to England he was elected a member of the Royal Academy, and was shortly after induced to leave this couutry a second time, on the promise of support and encouragement in India, which he found amply realized upon trial. Of late years, he resided chiefly near London, in ease and retirement. The style of Zoffanij's works is a great truth of expression, a fine deep tone of colouring, and high finishing in the detail. His principal works are portraits of dramatic performers in the time of Garrick, King, and Shuter; a picture embracing portraits of all the members of the Royal Academy; a similar one of the Royal Family, &c. &c. P. 502. The remains of the late Queen of France are only deposited in Westminster Abbey, until, according to her de sire, they can be removed to the Island of Sardinia. The lady who attended as chief mourner was the Countess de Narbonne, daughter to the Duke de Serent; she was her Dame d'Honneur, and followed her in all ber misfortunes. The Queen died in her arms, and made her promise not to leave her, till she saw her deposited in her grave. The Queen was a lineal descendant of the founder of the venerable chapel within whose walls her remains received the last rites of sepulture. Her Majesty was the descendant of Henry VII in the tenth or eleventh degree of descent, through the house of Stuart, by intermarriage with the houses of Bourbon and Savoy, as our own Sovereign is, in the tenth degree, through the house of Stuart, by intermarriage with the Palatine family (extinct in the male line) and the house of Brunswick. Two of the Royal mourners upon the occasion, the Dukes of Angoulesme and De Berri, were also descendants of of Henry VII. one degree further removed than the royal personage whose remains were committed to the tomb. The blood of Henry VII. intermingled with that of the house of Stuart, flows in the veins of nearly all the old legitimate Royal families of Europe, excepting the Russian dynasty. The present Empress of France, Ferdinand VII. the King of Denmark, and Gustavus IV. are all descendants of Henry VII. in the eleventh or twelfth degrees of consanguinity. him; but which might be said, to have grown with his manly growth, and to have strengthened with his advancing years.The same influence of a superior nature, that was felt by his early connexions and associates, was felt ever after, in future. life, by all who approached him.-Those who obtain dominion over the youthful mind through fear, could never succeed in debasing his; but many undue advantages were obtained through the medium of his affections. It was a pre-eminent excellence, and it distinguished him from his cradle to his grave, that to a Roman T St. Germain en Laye, spirit he united the most affectionate sen DEATHS, Od. 18. A aged 82, John-George No sibilities. He might, perhaps, in some Oct. verre, a celebrated Maitre des Ballets on the Opera stages of Paris, London, and Vienna. He was born in Paris April 29, 1727; and in 1767, while in the service of the Duke of Wirtemberg, published at Vienna, in 8vo, "Lettres sur la Danse & sur les Ballets." He had acquired a considerable property by his profession; but the greater part of it was lost in the French Revolution. 1810, Jan. 3. In camp at Tendoova, Lieut. Glenholme, of the first battalion ninth regiment of Native Infantry. June 5. At Malta, in his 27th year, Mr. Theodore Galton, second son of Samuel G. esq. of Dudson, near Birmingham. He was returning from a long voyage, undertaken from a classical taste and in search of knowledge, to the coasts of the Mediterranean and, particularly, to Asia Minor and Greece. He had been daily, and impatiently, expected by his anxious friends; and was actually supposed to be on board the vessel, that brought the account of his decease. This young man is deeply and most deservedly regretted. Few persons have been so strikingly distinguished, for those attractive qualities and graces of the mind, that excite regard; and for those disinterested and generous perfections that retain it.— A school may be considered the epitome of the world; where the future character is first unfolded and made known.-A native dignity, that scorned a meanness, or a misrepresentation, or any plausible duplicity, soon distinguished him. A high sense of honour, and all the magnanimous virtues that stamp the mind with true nobility, excited in his equals, at school, a kind of idolatry towards him. Even his preceptors felt the force of his character; his superiors learnt to respect and honour him, communicating to his parents, exultiugly, from time to time, extraordinary instances of his great and feeling mind; and of that sacred observance of truth, in its unperverted simplicity, which raised him, in after-life, above little designing men. Such was the basis of his future character — a character which never abandoned instances, have merited that observation which is made by Fielding respecting Allworthy, "That the best of heads was misled by the best of hearts!" The phlegmatic and cold may consider this as censure-such censure is distinguished praise. -Mr. G. was never known to have lost the affections of a friend. The regard he had once excited, was a feeling deeply established in the heart; and the boy who had been attached to him, however early the period, became so, imperceptibly, more and more as life advanced. Nor was he remembered with indifference, even by those who had not seen or heard of him, during long periods of time; he was thought of with regret, for scarcely was his equal to be expected in future life! He never had a personal enemy; though upon one or two occasions of his life he had been ill used, from motives of interest, by designing and sordid minds. He was, however, not capable of a malignant feeling; he was never known to have harboured a resentment; he was often known to have entirely forgotten that he had been injured. He was capable of being made angry, but his anger was not the retaliation of low passions; it was the indignation of a noble mind, that spurned at a meanness; or at any injurious suspicion, that cast a shade over the open day-light of his own conduct. His commanding figure, and the Grecian contour of his features, might have been considered by the sculptor as models for his art. The dark shade of his hair and eyes, and the manly red and white of his complexion, gave a brilliant effect and added a rich lustre to his face. These personal advantages were however forgotten, and, as it were, lost, in the captivating influence of his manners and countenance. No human features were ever lighted up with more beaming splendours, with more intelligeuce, or with finer sensibilities, always awakened to the occasion. His mind was seen in its emanations-it shone forth externally, and in its brightness seemed, like light, to surround him.-In every society he was a distinguished object; and his superiors - superiors in age, in class, and even in attainments, felt themselves flattered by his notice. This influence was never weakened by habit; it was felt by those who lived with him, equally, as by others. Almost every person who had accidentally met him as a stranger, left him with the feelings of a friend. This was exemplified in the following fact. A gentleman, who had never before seen Mr. G. spent one morning with him, by chance, not long before he left England. When the same gentleman afterwards saw, in the public papers, the account of his death, he burst into tears!Those who possessed a congenial nobility of mind, felt the influence of his character peculiarly. Mr. Simmons, a merchant from Smyrna, and a stranger to Mr. G. embarked in the same Tunisian vessel for Malta. When Mr. G. was given over by the physicians, and the fever declared highly infectious, Mr. Simmons (who was performing quarantine in the same apartment) was offered another, for his own preservation but Mr. Simmons refused to abandon him; and he continued to sleep where he was, and to attend him as he had done throughout, with an assiduous care, until the last : being fixed to the spot by his anxieties; although Mr. G's invaluable friend and travelling companion, Dr. Sacheveral Darwin, was there; and watched him unremittingly, night and day, at the hazard of his own life. This short account flows from a heart warmed by the virtues of no common character; and also from a wish, inspired by a sense of justice, that such a character should not pass away, unknown and unnoticed, merely because coincident events are wanting to bring it more publicly forth! Eut the publick can never fully know or appreciate Mr. G. as he appeared in private life; bringing joy and animation, and diffusing brightness round in a circle of friends, at home; where he was an ornament and a pride to his family.-He rarely sought pleasures in public, or spent an evening from home; but passed his leisure hours in the attainment of knowledge, and in the delights of elegant Literature. He had been led to a love of study, after his school-education was over, by some events of his life; but principally by a mind which had acquired a discerning taste, and that was capable of the richest cultivation. It was necessary to have resided under the same roof, in order to have seen how deeply his deportment had interested every class throughout a large family. For his heart and behaviour were governed by sympathies that were in accordance with the feelings of those who wanted protection, or who wanted support. Every friend and every domestic felt his gentle kindness, a kindness rarely com bined with the energies of such a charac ter. But he possessed very opposite pen fections, and such as are not often brought together, in a bright assemblage, in one mind.-Those who habitually resided with Mr. G. were well aware how great he was. upon small, as well as upon the more important occasions of life; they saw, and felt, the sublime in all his actions, in his minute actions, even in his errors; for he never committed a fault, but it was instantly repaired with such a noble candour as established him more firmly in the affections of the person inadvertently offended.-His heart was warmed towards every friend; it was a heart that exulted in their joys, and that met their sorrows. To his parents he exhibited a very uncommon and sublime example of filial love! But he is seen no more! May he still be contemplated in his character, like a fine model, for imitation !-Should this inadequate sketch meet the eyes of any of his juvenile friends, from whom time and events may long have divided him 5the heart of that friend will acknowledge the likeness, and the influence be revived of such feelings as probably no other individual has since excited. He will dwell with a mournful satisfaction upon the past; and, recalling the image of his bright associate, will embalm his memory with tears. Sept. 19. At the Cape of Good Hope, the wife of James Collier, esq. paymaster of the 21st regiment of Light Dragoons; and also, her infant son. Oct. 6. At her brother's house at Mo gadore, on the coast of Barbary, after a few days' illness, aged 43, Miss Charlotte Court. Her numerous friends in England and elsewhere with whom she was in the habit of corresponding, and many others, will learn with deep concern the unfortunate issue of her visit to a Foreign Coun try, undertaken only two years and a half sinee, on the first summons from an afflicted Brother, then deploring the loss of the Mother of his infant children. In her, his little girls have to lament the loss of a second mother, to whom they had become greatly attached; and her brother, that of one of the kindest and most affectionate of sisters. The fine climate of Mogadore seemed to promise a long continuance of health to one already seasoned to the change from that of England; but an obstinate diarrhea, which immediate good medical aid, and the watchful attention of her family and friends, could not remove, soon made her exchange this world for a better. To sum up her character in a few words: she was an accomplished woman, a sincere friend, an affectionate relative, and a pious Christian, She died full of the hopes of a blessed immortality; and, from her happiness in her last last moments, gave a striking proof of the purity of her life. A. W. C. Oct. 13. In his command at Antigua, Brigadier-gen. Robert Nicholson, senior lieut.-colonel of the Royal Foot. From his entering the army until the day of his death, he had never been absent from the duties of his profession; and he appears to have fallen a sacrifice to a long residence in foreign climates, especially in the West Indies. In him his King and Country have sustained the loss of a loyal and faithful servant; his relations and acquaintance that of a generous, an affec tionate, and a liberal friend. Oct. 14. Aged 21, Lieut. M. Mildridge, first lieutenant of the Emerald. This young officer lost his life by the falling of one of the Emerald's guns, whilst cruising on the coast of Ireland. He was a native of Portsea. Oct. 16. After a long illness, Mrs. Catharine-Charlotte Tokely, wife of Joseph T. esq. R.

Oct. 30. At Steeple Morden, Cambridgeshire, aged 61, the Rev. Rich. King, vicar of that parish, and rector of Worthin, Salop. He was formerly fellow of New College, Oxford; B. A. 1771; M. A. 1774, His principles in Church and State were eminently orthodox and loyal: he was a strenuous assertor of the rights of the establishment of which he was a member, He was a sound scholar, and frequently employed his pen in the respectable pe riodical works of the day in defence of the religion and good order of his country. He was the author of a tract "On the Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures ;" also of a traet "On the Alliance between Church and State;" and of "An Answer to the Letters of Peter Plymley," under the sig nature of "Brother Abraham." His friendship was duly appreciated by a respectable list of contemporaries at school, at college, and in later life, among whom may be named the present pious and learned Bishop of Gloucester, who dedicated one of the volumes of his Sermons to him. His benevolence was extensive and unostentatious. He was the early friend and patron of the late George Anderson, accomptant to the East India Board of Controul: an interesting account of his fostering kindness to that eminent young man, and of the distinguished talents of his protegé, may be found in a work published a few years ago under the title of "Necrology." He married Frances-Elizabeth, the third daughter of the late Sir Francis Bernard, Bart. Governor of Massachusets Bay. Oct. 30. At Plymouth, of consumption, aged 19, Miss Meredith, daughter of the late Col. M. of the Artillery. The acute sorrow felt by a fond mother, who was her unremitting attendant during her illness, is much increased by the loss of an only son, a cadet at Woolwich, a youth of great promise, who died after a short illness, on the 24th September last; which grievous affliction Mrs. M. had not only to contend with, with all the feelings of a tender mother, but had to conceal it from her daughter, who, till her death, was ignorant of the fate of her brother. Mrs. Stubbs, relict of the late Mr. Wil liam S. of Cannon-street. Samuel Dendy, esq. of Dorking, Surrey. At Masham, Jeremiah Batley, esq. of Lamb's Conduit-street, London, and formerly of Bull close, near Halifax..

At his father's in Padiham, of a rapid consumption, aged 23, Mr. Hugh Baldwin, jun. late Professor of Music at Liverpool. He had been, like his father, completely blind for several years; and was educated at the Blind Asylum in Liverpool. He was of an amiable disposition; highly accomplished; and had conciliated to himself a numerous, valuable, and highly-respectable acquaintance. A provincial paper contains the following verses to his memory: Ab, then! the vital spark at length is fled, And Baldwin's number'd with the silent dead! That aching heart, that beat within his breast, [rest. With all its griefs and pains, is lull'd to Gladly his soul leaves this confin'd abode, And joyful soars on high to meet its God.

Dickenson, minister of the congregation of Anabaptists in that city. This respectable man died while discharging, with his accustomed energy, the sacred functions of his office he had taken for his text, "We must all appear before the judgment-seat of Christ," and had advanced but a short way in his discourse, when he suddenly fell down in his pulpit, and instantly expired.
