the end of his days he maintained a consistent course in this respect, and was the uncompromising advocate and defender of Protestant and Evangelical principles. In his private character he was remarkably pleasing and affable in his demeanour, his address was graceful, and his manners gentle and kind to all. He had but recently returned from his last visit to the Vaudois; and it is gratifying to think that he was permitted once more to see those cherished objects of his regard. Only two Sundays before his death he preached before a crowded congregation in Berwick, at the re-opening of the parish church.

Dr. Gilly was the first person who sought to ameliorate the condition of the agricultural labourers in North Northumberland, by calling the attention of landholders and the general public to the then miserable state of the cottage dwellings generally found upon the estates in this district; and his benevolent suggestions have since been carried out with much spirit by the Duke of Northumberland and other large landholders.

About the time of his coming to Durham, on the 18th Dec. 1825, he married Jane Charlotte Mary, only daughter of Major Colberg; who survives him, having been always his active co-adjutor in every good work.

JOSEPH GILLMAN.

June 25. In Manchester, in his 96th year, Joseph Gillman, of Hulme.

He was born at Little Over, near Derby, in 1759. He fought under Rodney and Hood, in the West Indies, off Port Royal, in April, 1782, against the French Admiral Count de Grasse (who was taken prisoner and sent to England), and is believed to have been the last survivor of that eventful day.

Whether right or wrong, Joe was one of the foremost mutineers at the Nore. Joe dictated the third, the effective telegraphic message to Mr. Pitt, namely, "Unless the demand for double pay was granted to soldiers as well as sailors, in one hour they would weigh anchor, and, with fifty ships of war, in four hours lay London in ashes." In this case, Joe's threat, without blows, conquered both minister and monarch! This rebellious act was Joe's chief glory; he used to say "he had rendered no other service to his country or to mankind to be compared with it." Joe's favourite, the immortal Nelson, personally selected him to accompany him in the St. George to the Baltic, to Copenhagen, where thirteen ships under Nelson accomplished what the forty under Admiral Parker declined. At Copenhagen, Joe received a compound

fracture on both legs. He served in the royal navy about eighteen years: fighting was his glory; he was ever foremost in the post of danger. He was one of the forlorn hope in the storming of Seringapatam. For all his many and long services his country awarded him just nothing!- Manchester Guardian.
