DIED at Edinburgh, on the 8th June, HUGH WARRENDER, Esq. of Burntsfield, his Majesty's Agent for Scotland, and Deputy Keeper of the Signet. We do not take notice of the death of Mr Warrender for the purpose of saying that his loss will be regretted by all who knew him, although on this occasion these would not be words of course. To his immediate friends and relatives, to whom we know he was affectionately attached, the loss is irreparable, and we sincerely sympa thize in their sorrow. But we thus particularly advert to the melancholy occurrence for a different purpose, and with the warm desire of bestowing a much higher praise, of recording to his honour, that, while holding, as he did for a long period, the office of Agent for the Crown, which in some bands would have inflamed party spirit, he uniformly evinced, in the discharge of his official duties, a superiority to every little or party feeling. To the Crown he did his duty faithfully and honourably, while to the subject he was uniformly accommodating, kind, and charitable. Where the law was rigorous, he took pleasure in softening its severity; where it prohibited intercourse, he was anxious to make the privations felt as little as possible; and in his breast the confidential family secrets of a state prisoner were as safe as in that of a father. Easy of access, plain and unaffected in his manner, the poor could approach him without embarrassment, while the overflowing goodness of his heart irresistibly led him to take an interest in their sufferings. Many instances might be given of his high honour and unceasing benevolence; but it is enough for the present to allude to them. "The good we do lives after us;" and we recollect of few names that have a stronger claim to general esteem and regret than that of Hugh Warrender.-Scotsman. As a mark of esteem and respect for the memory of the deceased, the Society of Writers to the Signet, of which Mr Warrender was so long a distinguished member, attended his funeral, in full mourning, with their gowns, and walked before the hearse, four abreast, the junior members first. Sir George Warrender, one of the Lords of the Admiralty, chief mourner, supported by his brother, and other relations and friends of the family, among whom were several of the Judges of the Court of Session, followed the hearse on foot. The procession was solemn and impressive. THE LATE LORD DUNDAS. Died at his seat at Aske, in Yorkshire, on the 14th June, aged 79, THOMAS LORD DUNDAS. His Lordship was Lord Lieu tenant and Vice-Admiral of Orkney and Shetland, and President of the Society of Antiquaries in Scotland. He was the only son of the late Sir Lawrence Dundas, by Margaret Bruce, sister of the Honourable Robert Bruce, Lord Kennet, one of the Lords of Session and Justiciary. He married Lady Charlotte Wentworth, only sister of the present Earl Fitzwilliam, by whom he has left four sons and five daughters living, viz. Lawrence, now Lord Dundas, lately elected Member for the city of York; George, a Captain in the Royal Navy; Thomas, in holy orders; and Sir Robert, a Colonel in the army; Margaret, married to Archibald Spiers, Esq.; Charlotte, to Viscount Milton; Frances, to Robert Chaloner, Esq.; Mary, to the Rev. William Wharton; and Isabella, to T. C. Ramsden, Esq. His Lordship was created a Peer in 1794. He was well known in this city, where he often resided in the early part of his life, and represented Stir lingshire in several Parliaments.-Edin, burgh. THE LATE HONOURABLE BARON Died at his house, Abbey Hill, Edinburgh, on the 19th June, the Honourable FLETCHER NORTON, senior Baron of the Court of Exchequer in Scotland, one of the oldest Judges in the three kingdoms. On the death of Baron Wynne, in 1776, he was appointed English Baron of the Exchequer in Scotland, having officiated as such, at the time of his death, forty-four years. The Honourable Baron was second son of Fletcher, first Lord Grantley, and was born in 1744. He married Miss Balmain, daughter of James Balmain, Esq. Commissioner of Excise, by whom he has left four sons and four daughters. The eldest son is presumptive heir and successor to the titles and estates of his uncle, the present Lord Grantley. There has seldom appeared a stronger instance of the influence of manners and conduct, that is, the manners and conduct which spontaneously arise from the best feelings of our nature, when combined with the soundest judgment, in acquiring the esteem and affection of all ranks of persons in society. Baron Norton took up his residence in Scotland at a time when the prejudices between that country and England, which had been gradually subsiding after the rebellion in 1745, were revived by the periodical publication of the North Briton. But these prejudices were converted into sentiments of regard for him as soon as he was known. In a judicial capacity he was eminently distinguished for a precision and soundness of opinion, a calm unruffled temperance of manner, and an accuracy of judgment which have seldom, if ever been surpassed. His personal appearance on the Bench was particularly noble and dignified, and will long be remembered by those who have had an opportunity of observing him engaged in the official duties of his station. These qualifications, combined with a conscientious and unremitting attention to every department of the office with which he was intrusted, an integrity which could not be shaken, and an attractive urbanity of manners, rendered him a bright ornament of that Court of which he was so long a mem ber, and secured him at once the respect and esteem of every individual with whom he was associated in discharging its important functions. His cordial and generous hospitality will be universally acknow. ledged; and the charms of his easy and refined conversation will ever dwell in the memory of a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. To the sportsman he may be represented as a perfect model; a constitution by nature firm and vigorous, was in him established by habits of unwonted activity and exertion; and to the last year of his life he retained that juvenile ardour and energetic elasticity of mind which endeared him even to the youthful enthusiast in the sports of the field. To the poor, and those who have none to help, his loss will be irreparable. By them his approach to the various districts in which he was accustomed to reside, was ever hailed with the liveliest joy and acclamation, and his departure deplored with the mingled homage of blessings and tears. In domestic life, the effects of his amiable qualities were most interesting. As a husband, a father, a friend, and a master, he was equally revered. His fund of information-of anecdotes, admirably well told his social disposition, and the gentlemanly pleasantness of his manners, made his society universally coveted. Resentment had no place in his bosom. He seemed almost insensible to injury, so immediately did he pardon it. Amongst his various pensioners were several who had shown marked ingratitude; but distress with him covered every offence against himself. His attention to religious and moral duties was uniform and constant. Not a Sunday passed, either in town or country, when he was prevented from going to church, that the service of the Church of England, and a sermon selected from the works of the best English and Scots divines, were not read to his family; and so inviolable was his regard to truth, that no argu ment could ever prevail upon him to deviate from the performance of a promise, though obtained contrary to his interest, and, by artful representations, imperfectly founded. THE LATE BARON COCKBURN. Died on the 20th June, at Caroline Park, near Edinburgh, ARCHIBALD COCKBURN, Esq. late of Cockpen. Mr Cockburn entered into the Faculty of Advocates in 1762, and was long Sheriff Depute of the county of Edinburgh, which office he filled greatly to the satisfaction of the publie. He was afterwards made Judge Admiral, and in 1790 was appointed a Baron of the Court of Exchequer, in room of Baron Stewart Moncrieffe, which he resigned in 1809, and was succeeded by Baron Clerk Rattray. THE LATE DR MURRAY. Died at his house in Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, on the 22d June, Dr JOHN MURRAY, Lecturer on Chemistry in Edinburgh. The death of this distinguished philosopher, snatched from us in the prime of life, and full vigour of his faculties, will long be felt as a national loss. His works, now of standard celebrity at home and abroad, have, from the spirit of profound and accurate analysis, which they everywhere display, and from the force, clearness, and precision of their statements, most essentially contributed to advance chemistry to the high rank which it now holds among the liberal sciences. His very acute, vigorous, and comprehensive mind has been most successfully exerted in arranging its numerous and daily multiplying details, defining its laws, and, above all, in attaching to it a spirit of philosophical investigation, which, while it lays the best foundation for extending its practical application, tends at the same time to exalt its character, and dignify its pursuit. As a lecturer on chemistry, it is impossible to praise too highly the superior talents of Dr Murray; always perfectly master of his subject, and very successful in the performance of his experiments, which were selected with great judgment, his manner had a natural ease and animation, which showed evidently that his mind went along with every thing he uttered, and gave his lectures great freedom and spirit. But his peculiar excellence as a teacher was a most uncommon faculty, arising from the great perspicuity and distinctness of his conceptions, of leading his hearers step by step through the whole process of the most complex investigation, with such admirable clearness, that they were induced to think that he was following out a natural order which could not be avoided, at the very time when he was exhibiting a specimen of the most refined and subtle analysis. With him the student did not merely accumulate facts, note down dry results, or stare at amusing experiments: he was led irresistibly to exercise his own mind, and trained to the habits of accurate induction. To those solid attainments which entitled Dr Murray to stand in the first rank as a man of science, was united a refined taste, and a liberal acquaintance with every subject of general interest in literature. His manners were easy, polite, and unpretending, regulated by a delicate sense of propriety, with much of that simplicity which so often accompanies strength of character and originality of mind. He rose to eminence by the intrinsic force of his talents; he was above all the second-hand arts by which so many labour to attract attention; and a native dignity of sentiment, and manly spirit of independence, kept him aloof from all those petty intrigues which are so often employed with success to bolster up inferior pretensions.
