determined that the funeral fhould be at St Paul's Cathedral. In confequence of which the corpfe was conveyed to the Great Room of the Society, in the Adelphi, on Thursday the 13th of March, where it lay till the next day at noon, when it was conveyed to St. Paul's, and depofited in the cripts, near the remains of Sir Chriftopher Wren and Sir Joshua Reynolds. The funeral was attended by the following refpectable gentlemen, as pallbearers 1. Sir Robert Peele, Bart.; 2. Richard Clark, Efq. Chamberlain of the City; 3. General Watson; 4. Caleb Whiteford, Efq.; 5. Dr. Powell; 6. Dr. Charles Taylor, Secretary to the Society of Arts, &c. The chief mourners were, Dr. Fryer and Dr. Combe. But the names of the other gentlemen who attended are not known to the Author. It may appear fingular, but not one artist was prefent upon the occafion. The fervice was performed in the Chapel of the north-west corner, by the Minor Canon in waiting.

The anecdotes of this gentleman cannot be better concluded than by obferving, that the peculiarities of his conduct upon different occafions, led his best friends to fufpect that Mr. Barry, in a certain degree, laboured under a fpecies of mental derangement fomewhat refembling that of the celebrated Rouffeau.

After his death, it was found that he had realized property to the amount of more than two thoufand pounds. His expences were fo fmall, that little had been taken from whatever he had obtained by his profeffional exertions. He had been strictly punctual in his dealings, and just to others. It appears, that with all. his eccentricities, he had a careful confideration of what might be necessary for himself.
