At Louisa county, Virginia, John Woodger. He wanted about three weeks of ninety years. He was a native of Virginia; plain and temperate in his diet, and his constant drink, for many years, was hard cyder. He never took a doze of physic, nor had a vein opened in his life. He was remarkable for scrupulous honesty; plain and blunt in his manners, he had some oddities, but none that ever injured his neighbour; a warm friend and indulgent master. By mere economy he saved a handsome property. It is supposed that, at his death, he owed no man a dollar.

December 19. At Philadelphia, of a consumption, Mr. Thomas Dalton, printer, a native of Canada, but, for some time past, resident in Philadelphia.

On

19. Mrs. Margaret Swift, the wife of Joseph Swift, Esq., who, for many years, was a respectable merchant in Philadelphia. Her remains were decently interred in Christ's church burial ground, attended to the grave by her numerous relatives. these occasions the partial pens of friends too frequently delineate virtues and perfections which never belonged to the deceased; but, in the present instance, we can declare, with the utmost truth, that the conduct of Mrs. Swift, during a long life of seventy-five years, has been highly meritorious and exemplary.

20. At Chester county, Pennsylvania, Richard Humpton, adjutantgeneral. He was a native of the west of England, and entered very early into the military profession, in which he distinguished himself as a gallant soldier.

20. In the Pennsylvania hospital,

John Kennedy. His death was occasioned by a fall on the ice, in the street, on the 30th December; his leg was fractured in several pieces, and his head very much injured. He has left a wife and two children.

21. At Belmont, the seat of judge Peters, Mrs. Sarah Peters; a woman whom those who knew her best, loved her most; whose heart was the repository of all the virtues; whose person once united all the graces, and even at the age of fiftytwo, retained an unusual share of loveliness; whose cheerfulness of disposition, elegance of manners, benevolence of mind, and purity of friendship, endeared her to every society in which she moved; but who, in the nearer relations of wife, and mother, and sister, shone with superior excellence; creating and concentering, in her domestic circle, all the felicity that, perhaps, human nature can obtain, and leaving, to the fond affections of her family, no other wish than that of perpetuity.

22. After a short indisposition, Mr. John Taylor, formerly a merchant, and for many years an inhahitant, of Philadelphia. As a member of the community, he was respectable and exemplary, and has left a numerous and amiable family of children long to lament a deprivation to them irreparable.

24. Mr. William Drew, merchant, in the forty-second year of his age. He was an inhabitant of Dover, state of Delaware. From a long establishment in business, he was known to a large circle of acquaintance, who sincerely regret his premature death. He was an honest man, a sincere friend, and a faithful companion; his last accents were spent in supplication to his Maker.

Gardner, merchant, one of the wealthiest inhabitants of that place. 28. At Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in the twenty-eighth year of her age, Mrs. Mary Huber, wife of Mr. John Huber, and daughter of the late Mr. John Hirst, sen., of Philadelphia, after a very lingering and painful illness, which she bore with that christian fortitude and resignation which gave her friends, in the midst of deep sorrow, unspeakable satisfaction. When her spirit took its flight, her body was not discovered to move, nor was there a sigh heard at its departure; a clear and indubitable evidence, that death was a friendly, welcome messenger, sent to waft her blessed spirit into the arms of her adorable Redeemer, where uninterrupted happiness reigns.

He

29. At Philadelphia, Mr. Jacob Anthony, musical instrument maker, in the sixty-eighth year of his age, of a nervous complaint. was a German by birth, and resided in Philadelphia for more than forty years.

31. At Philadelphia, in the seventy-sixth year of her age, Elizabeth Fox, relict of the late Joseph Fox, Esq. The tenour of her life confers the best meed of eulogium, and her peaceful departure affords a flattering hope that her spirit hath gained an admission into the man
