The Rev. George Savage, the vicar, followed next the body as chief mourner, and all the neighbouring clergy attending as pall bearers, gave a very imposing appearance to this mournful ceremony.

The Asylum for the Instruction of the Deaf and Dumb, at Edgbaston, near Birmingham, handsomely fitted up by Lord Calthorpe, is now opened, and 26 children, admitted by ballot, are lodged and instructed under the care of Mr. Braidwood and a matron. The building is spacious enough to accommodate a much larger number, provided the funds were increased; and the hopes of a far more extended patronage are very sanguine. On the 11th February, a melancholy ac.cident occurred at the manufactory of Messrs. Johnson and White, in Birmingham, occasioned by the sudden bursting of the gazometer belonging to an apparatus recently constructed for the purpose of lighting their premises. Some trifling repairs being ne cessary to a part of the apparatus, the pipes were opened on the preceding evening, in order to the dispersion of the gas, which unfortunately was not completely effected. ན། 1815.], Wilts-Worcester-York. The following morning, Mr. White, with assailants, proceeded to make the necessary preparations; in the course of which the head of the gazometer receiving a violent pressure, a portion of the remaining gaseous fluid was forced through one of the principal conductors, and communicated with the flame of a lamp burning near its mouth, in a contiguous part of the manufactory, which instantly caused the ignition of the whole, and the apparatus blew up; by which a man assisting was unhappily killed, and Mr. White had his leg and thigh badly fractured: he is, however, in a fair way of recovery.

The large and handsome inn at Hull called the Neptune, has been taken by government for a custom house. The measles were never known to have been so general and fatal in Hull and the neighbourhood as during the present season. The Leed's King's Mills, with the soke, &c. have been purchased by Mr. Thos. Stro ther, of Leeds, for 32,000k-It seems to be the intention of Mr. Strother to offer the soke to the inhabitants at a fair valuation, to be fixed by impartial judges. Bible Societies have last week been formed At the latter at Horbury and Keighley. place, subscriptions to the amount of 2001. were entered into. The meeting was held in the church, and such interest was excited on the occasion, that most of the shops were closed, and the people from all the great factories in the neighbourhood were set at liberty, to enable them to attend. At the annual meeting of the Dock Company, Hull, it appeared that the amount of the dues has greatly increased in consequence of the peace, and that the proprietors would have received a handsome dividend, but for the necessity of expending a large sum 2 B is re-building and enlarging the lock of the Old Dock. At this meeting was produced a copy of the bill intended to be brought into parliament by the corporation of York, for building a bridge over the river Ouse, and for purchasing a church, and improving the streets in the city of York. For executing these works it is intended by the bill to levy a tax on the inhabitants of the county of York. This project of taxation the Dock Company have determined to oppose. A paper by Dr. Storer has lately been read to the Royal Society, giving an account of a well dug in Bridlington harbour, within high-water-mark. The bottom of the harhour is a bed of clay, through which they bored to the bed below; a tinned copper pipe was then put into the circular cavity, and the whole properly secured. The cavity was soon filled with pure water. When the tide rises to within about 50 inches of the mouth of this well, the fresh water begins to flow over, and the quantity flowing in creases as the tide rises, and the flow continues till the tide sinks more than 50 inches below the mouth of the well. During storms, the water flows in waves similar to the waves of the sea. Mr. Milne accounts for the flowing of this singular well in this way the whole bay, he conceives, has a elay bottom. The water between the clay and the rock can flow out no where except at the termination of the clay, which is under the sea. As the tide rives, the obstruction to this inode of escape will increase. Hence less will make its way below the clay, and of course it will rise and flow out of the mouth of the well. Birth.] At Bramham Biggen, the lady of the Hon. Edw. Stourton, of a son.

Died.] At his seat in East Lothian, Rebert Deans, esq. of Huntington, Admiral of At Shaw Hill, near Halifax, C, Hudson, the White. At Edinburgh, W. Creed, esq. bookseller, a gentleman well known for almost half a century to almost every family in the northern metropolis. Mr. Creech was the son of a respectable clergyman, the minister of Newcastle. After a complete classical education, he was at different times on the Continent, and succeeded, in 1771, to that part of the business of his early friend and patron, Mr. Kincaid, at that time his Majesty's printer for Scotland, which was not connected with the patent for King's printer. He has continued in this business for the long period of 44 years, and has been concerned in all the principal publications during that time. He was repeatedly in the magistracy of this city, and was solicited, in 1811, to accept the office of Lord Provost, which he did with reluctance, and against the advice of his private friends, as, from his habits and advanced time of life, he felt then unsuited for so public a situation. It has perhaps fallen to the lot of few men to have enjoyed more than Mr. Creech did, the correspondence and confidence of most of the great literary characters who flourished in Scotland from about the middle of last century. With Lord Kaimes, Dr. Robertson, Dr. Blair, Dr. Adam Smith, Lord Pailes, Lord Woodhouslee, Dr. Beattie, and many other illustrious authors, he was in habits of constant intimacy-and of many other eminent men of the same c ass, who are still living among us, Professor Dugal Stewart, Mr. M Kenzie, Lord Meadowbank, Dr. Gregery, &c. he possessed till his death the warmest friendship and esteem. Mr. Creech was well fitted to be an ornament to 30ciety; with a mind highly gifted and improved, he possessed the most pleasing manmers, and that habitual cheerfulness and playfulness of fancy which rendered his company so fascinating. He was an excellent and elegant scholar; and although, from the extent of his business as one of the most eminent booksellers of his day, and his many social engagements, he had little lei sure to direct his mind to any deliberate lirary work, yet the frequent light piece, and essays which came from his penevinced the elegance of his taste, his knows ledge of character, and his capability of a .higher attainment in composition, if he had chosen to aim at it. Several of these essays, we believe, were afterwards collected into a small volume, entitled, "Edinburgh Fugitive Pieces." Mr. Creech was one of the original founders of the Speculative Society of Edinburgh. In losing him, the city has certainly lost one of its ornaments; but tt was not in public so much as in private life that he shone so conspicuous. His conversational talents, whether the subject was ay, or serious, or learned; his universal good humour and pleasantry; and his unrivalled talent in descirbing to a social party the peculiarities of eccentric character, will 183 be long remembered by the numerous circles to whom his affability so much endeared him. At Merchiston Hall, the Hon. Mrs. Napier, relict of the Hon. Chas. N. and a few days afterwards, her grand daughter, Lucy Isabella, daughter of Chas. Campbell, esq. of Comble. At his seat in East Lothean, Robert Deans, IRELAND. The census instituted by Government, to ascertain the population of Ireland, is now nearly completed. The returns from the counties of Donegal, Fermanagh, Galway, and from several large towns and baronies of other counties, are still wanting. Of those already come in, the population amounts to full five millions, of which number the county of Cork alone furnishes 512,000. It is said by those who receive these returns, that the entire population of the country exceeds six millions! Birth.] At Powerscourt House, Wicklow, Viscountess Powerscourt, of a son and heir.

Died.] In Dublin, Mrs. Aberdien, who designed and executed the extraordinary Paper Museum which has lately been exhibited in different parts of the country. In consequence of a wound received in a duel with Counsellor O'Connell, J. N. D'Esterre, esq. a representative of the Gul of Merchants in the common council of bablin. The disagreement originated in some observations made by Mr. O'Connell, at one of the late Catholic meetings, in which, among other opprobious epithets, he called the corporation of Dublin "a beggarly corporation." These words were resented by Mr. D'Estree, as a member of that body, and an explanation being refused, a meeting took place at Bishop's Court, near Dublin. The last mentioned gentleman received a wound in the hip, which proved morial on the second day. He was formerly an officer of marines, and at the time of the mutiny at the Nore, he so distinguished himself by his loyal exertions, that the rope was actually about his neck, and he was on the point of being swung up to the yard arm by the exasperated sailors. He was afterwards a merchant in Dublin, and a government contractor, and married the daughter of Mr. Cramer, the celebrated musician, who is left a widow at the age of 17, with one child living, and pregnant with a second. [March 1, aries are Catholics, who, by a skilful display of the acquirements of Europe, and occasionally practising as physicians, have gained proselytes among the higher class of the Mandarins. Among their disciples, there is particular mention of Ho-Wan, the viceroy of Pekin. So zealous is this nobleman for the propagation of the new faith which he has embraced, that he has given large sums for the maintenance of the proselytes to Catholicism; and exerted all his interest at Court, to obtain permission for chapels to be built, in which divine service may be performed. His exertions are stated to have been not unsuccessful; in the gratitude of Kia King, he found a most powerful auxiliary; that monarch, while suffering acute pains from the stone had experienced relief from the prescriptions of one of the missionaries; and his interest and inclination alike corresponded in granting the required favour. The churches are gradually mulTitiplying; one has been erected at Fo kien, within sight of the grand temple dedicated to the idol Fo.
