His Lordship was born March 15, 1754, the eldest son of George, first and late Earl of Onslow, by Henrietta, eldest daughter of Sir John Shelley, fourth Baronet of Maresfield Park, Sussex, and aunt of the present Sir John Shelley. During his father's life, he represented the family borough of Guilford in four Parliaments, from 1784 to 1806. He was appointed Out-Ranger of Windsor Forest in 1792, and succeeded his father in his titles, May 17, 1814.

The Earl was twice married; first, Dec. 20, 1776, to Arabella, third daughter, and co-heiress of Eaton-Mainwaring Ellerker, of Risby Park, Yorkshire, esq. By this lady be had issue, three sons and one daughter: Arthur-George, now Earl of Onslow; Thomas Cranley, who succeeded his father as M.P. for Guildford in 1806, and sat till 1818; MainwaringEdward; and Elizabeth-Harriet, who died unmarried, July 19, 1824.

Having lost his first lady April 11, 1782, at the early age of twenty-six, the Earl (then the Hon. Mr. Onslow,) was united, secondly, Feb. 13, 1783, to Charlotte, daughter of William Hale, of King's Walden, in Hertfordshire, esq. and widow of Thomas Duncombe, of Duncombe Park, in Yorkshire, esq. (uncle of the present Lord Feversham,) to whom she had been third wife. By this lady he had one daughter, Georgiana-Charlotte.

DR. PELHAM, BISHOP OF LINCOLN. Feb. 7. At his house in Connaught place, aged 60, the Hon. and Right Rev. George Pelham, D.C.L. Lord Bishop of Lincoln, Canon Residentiary of Chichester, Clerk of the Closet to the King, Visitor of King's College, Cambridge, and of Brasenose and Lincoln Colleges, Oxford, and Provincial Chancellor of Canterbury; uncle to the Earl of Chichester.

His Lordship was born October 13, 1766, the third son, and seventh and youngest child of Thomas, first Earl of Chichester, by Anne, daughter and

beiress of Fredric-Meinhardt Frankland, esq. (son of Sir Thomas Frankland, second Baronet of Thirkelby, co. York), He was at first intended for the Army, and for a short time held a commission in the guards, but afterwards determined for the Church, and took the degree of B.A. as of Clare-hall, Cambridge, in 1787. He became a Canon Residentiary of Chichester in 1790, being presented to the prebend of Middleton in that church by the then Bishop, Sir Wm. Ashburnham, bart.; who, in 1792 also gave him the Vicarage of Bexhill, as the succeeding Bishop, Dr. Buckner, did that of Hellingley in 1800.

On the 14th December, 1792, be married Mary, third daughter of the Rev. Sir Richard Rycroft, D.D. first Baronet of Farnham in Surrey, and sister to the present Sir Nelson Rycroft.

In 1802, on the translation of Dr. Cornwall to the see of Hereford, vacant by the death of Dr. Butler, the Hon. Geo. Pelham was consecrated Bishop of Bristol, and received the degree of D.C.L. from the Archbishop of Canterbury. In 1804 he published the Charge delivered at his primary visitation (reviewed in vol LXXIV. p. 1141); and in 1805, a Sermon preached in St. Paul's at the yearly meeting of the Charity Schools (reviewed in vol. LXXVI. p. 446).

In 1807, on the translation of Dr. Fisher to the See of Salisbury, vacant by the death of Dr. Douglas, Dr. Pelham succeeded him at Exeter; and in 1820, on the removal of Dr. Tomline to the See of Winchester, vacant by the death of Dr. North, the subject of our memoir was promoted to Lincoln.

In his episcopal duties, Dr. Pelham could not be surpassed in urbanity of manners, punctuality of business, and impartial distribution of patronage.

His Lordship's death was occasioned by a severe cold, brought on in attending the funeral of the Duke of York. His own funeral took place February 15, at Laughton in Sussex, the family burialplace.

DR. KING, BISHOP OF ROCHESTER.

Feb. 22. At Wells, aged 72, the, Right Rev. Walker King, D.D. Lord Bishop of Rochester, Canon Residentiary of Wells, Prebendary of Peterborough, Provincial Chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, and F.S.A.

The ancestors of Dr. King were of Skellands, in the district of Craven, and'

the first of them seated at that place is said to have come out of Westmoreland, and to have garrisoned the church of Kirkby Malhamdale for the Parliament, temp. Car. I. The father of the Bishop was the Rev. James King, S.T.P. Chaplain to the House of Commons, minister of Clitheroe and Downham in Lancashire, Vicar o Guildford in Surrey, Canon of Windsor 1772, Dean of Raphoe 1775, and who died in 1795. His mother was Anne, daughter and co-heir of John Walker, of Hungerhill, esq. and from this family, from whom his Lordship received his name, he was doubly descended, the mother of his paternal grandmother being also a Walker of Hungerhill. The Bishop was born at Clitheroe, the third of five sons, all eminent in their professions. The eldest, Thomas King, D.D. was Prebendary of Canterbury, Chancellor of the Church of Lincoln, Rector of Blaydon, (to which Woodstock is a chapelry), and died in 1801. The second, James King, LL.D. F.R.S. was the celebrated companion of Capt. Cook, the compiler of the last volume of his voyage, and died at Nice, in 1784. Edward King, esq. the fourth, was Vice-chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster; and John King, esq. the youngest, was Under-secretary of State under the administration of Lord Grenville, the Duke of Portland, and Lord Pelbam.

The Bishop was first admitted of Brasenose College, Oxford, but afterward became a student of Christ-church, and proceeded M.A. 1775, B. and D.D. 1788. He was Private Secretary to the Marquess of Rockingham, when Prime Minister, and was the confidential friend and one of the executors of the celebrated Burke. He was for several years preacher to Gray's Inn, and published in 8vo, 1793, two Sermons delivered before that Hon. Society. He became a Canon Residentiary of Wells in 1796, being presented by Bishop Moss to the prebend of Wivelscombe in that Cathedral; and in 1803 he was appointed by the Crown, a Prebendary of Canterbury. In 1808 be was elevated to the See of Rochester, on the translation of Dr. Dampier to that of Ely, then vacant by the death of the Hon. Dr. Yorke.

His Lordship was a man of a remarkably liberal, warm, and amiable disposition, and possessed very highly cultivated talents. He had the misfortune of being blind, or nearly so, for some years previous to his death. He lived just long enough to appoint his son, the Rev. Walker King, of Oriel College, Oxford, M.A. to succeed Dr. Law, as Archdeacon of Rochester, after that gentleman had

held the office for no less than sixty years.

Dr. LEGGE, Bishop of Oxford. Jan. 27. At his lodge, All Souls' College, Oxford, in his 60th year, the Hon. and Right Rev. Edward Legge, D.C L. Lord Bishop of Oxford, Warden of All Souls, Vicar of Lewishamn, Kent, and a Director of Greenwich Hospital; uncle to the Earl of Dartmouth.

This pious, learned, and exemplary prelate, was born Dec. 4, 1767, the seventh son of William, second Earl of Dartmouth, by Frances-Catherine, sole daughter and heir of Sir Charles-Gunter Nicholl, K. B. He was educated at Rugby, and from thence became a menber of Christ Church, Oxford. He was elected to a Fellowship in All Souls in 1789, and proceeded B.C.L. 1791, D.C.L. as a grand compounder, 1805. He was presented by his father to the family living of Lewisham in 1797, and made a Prebendary of Canterbury in 1800; was appointed in 1805 to the Deanery of Windsor, then resigned by Dr. Manners Sutton on his removal from the See of Norwich to that of Canterbury; and, resigning the Deanery of Windsor, was advanced to the Bishoprick of Oxford in 1815, on the death of Dr. Jackson. In 1817, on the decease of Dr. Isham, he was elected Warden of All Souls: and from that period he chiefly resided at Oxford.

His Lordship's disorder was pulmonary consumption, which has proved fatal to many of his family.

BISHOP PLUNKETT.

Some sensation has been created in the Roman Catholic circles in Dublin, by the death of the venerable Dr. Plunkett, titular Bishop of Meath, in his 89th

year.

Dr. Plunkett was born at Kelso, co. Meath, Dec. 24, 1738, and received an excellent education in the celebrated college of Trente trois, founded by the Duke of Orleans. Having been ordained to the priesthood, be obtained a professorship in the Irish community, and the place of chief almoner in one of the first families in France. He subsequently took the degree of Doctor of Divinity, became an associate of the illustrious and roya! Navarre, and one of the four provincial superiors of the Irish college, called the Lombard. After twenty-six years absence, he returned to Ireland, and in 1778. succeeded Dr. Cheevers in the Papal Bishoprick of Meath, his first visitation being at the close of that year; a duty which for forty-eight years he annually performed with the zeal and

spirit of a primitive bishop. Being a zealous patron of the domestic education of the Irish clergy, he took an active part in the deliberations of the Catholic prelates in 1794, having for their object the establishment of Maynooth; being named one of the original trustees, he was present with the late Papal primate and the Rev. Dr. Troy, when his Excellency Lord Camden, laid the foundation of that college in 1796. His growing infirmities compelled him to resign the trust in 1825.

For very nearly half a century he presided over one of the largest Bishopricks in Ireland, and had the reputation, amongst all parties, of uniting as many of the qualities of the Christian pastor as were ever concentrated in one person.

LORD DUFFUS.,

Jan. 30. At his house in Harleystreet, aged 80, the Right Hon. James Sutberland, Baron Duffus, who was restored to that title by Act of Parliament which received the royal assent May 26,

1826.

He was the eldest and only surviving son of Eric Sutherland, esq. (son of Kenneth the third Baron, who was attainted in 1715), by his first cousin Elizabeth, daughter of Sir James Dunbar, of Hempriggs, Bart. The family are descended from Nicholas, second son of Kenneth, third Earl of Sutherland, who was slain at Halidon Hill, in 1333, and from whom, Alexander, created Lord Duffus by Charles the First in 1650, was tenth, and the Peer now deceased, fourteenth in lineal descent.

His Lordship was formerly in the army. No one ever knew him without being struck with the uncommon vigour of his intellect, and impressed with the fervent kindness of his heart. Having never married, he is succeeded in his title by his cousin Sir Benjamin Dunbar, of Hempriggs, Baronet, whose grandfather, the Hon. James Sutherland, second son of James, second Lord Duffus, assumed the name and arms of Dunbar, after marriage with Elizabeth, only child and heiress of Sir William Dunbar of that place.

The remains of Lord Duffus were interred in Marylebone Church, on the 7th of February.

GENERAL CArtwright. Feb. 9. At his house in Nottinghamplace, aged 73, General William Cart wright, Colonel of the first or King's Dragoon Guards.

This officer was appointed to a Cornetcy in the 10th dragoons, Feb. 22,

1769; to a Lieutenancy, March 24, 1775; Captain-lieutenant in the King's own dragoons, June 29, 1779; Major, May 10, 1786; Lieut.-Colonel, Dec. 4, 1793. He was appointed Aide-de-camp to the King, and received the brevet of Colonel, Dec. 15, 1796; and in 1799 he had the command of a brigade of cavalry under orders for foreign service. He was promoted to the rank of MajorGeneral, April 29, 1802, and he was employed on the staff in England from May 25 that year, to May 9, 1808, first in the inspection of cavalry regiments, chiefly in the Western district, previously to a reduction in their establishment; afterward in the command of the cavalry and other corps on the coast of Kent; subsequently in command of the cavalry in the home district; and lastly in command of a brigade of cavalry in Kent, destined for foreign service.

On Dec. 13, 1804, Major-General Cartwright was appointed Colonel of the 23d Light Dragoons, from whence he was removed to the 3d or King's own, Nov. 18, 1807. He obtained the brevet of Lieut.-general April 25, 1808, and that of General, August 12, 1819. He was a member of the Consolidated Board of General Officers.

COUNT G. V. ORLOV.

July 9. Aged 47, Count GregoryVladimirovich Orlov, an eminent Russian nobleman, distinguished for his attachment to literature, and the patronage he extended to it.

Having been obliged, in consequence of the delicate state of his health, to exchange his native climate for a milder one, he resided several years in Italy, during which period he composed "Mémoires Historiques, Politiques, et Litté raires, sur le Royaume de Naples, 1820;" a work comprehending the entire history of Lower Italy, and marked both by its liberal and independent tone, and the bistorical research it displays. This was succeeded, in 1822, by his "Histoire des Arts en Italie," of which the two first volumes relate to music; the two others to painting. He likewise published an account of his travels through part of France, 3 vols. 1823; and it is to him that the literary world is indebted for a translation into French and Italian of Krilov's Fables, which was conducted under his auspices. Shortly before his death, he had commenced a French translation of Karamsin's History of Russia,-a labour of no ordinary magnitude, and one which, if accomplished, would have been the means of communicating to the rest of Europe that noble monument of Russian literature.
