Marriages and Deaths in and near London.

The rev. Richard Stainfby, more than 40 years lecturer of St. Mary, Strand.

At Hackney, Lieut. Colonel James Chafwell, of the first royal regiment of the Tower Hamlet militia.

In Westminster, Arthur Kelly, efq. the late lieutenant-colonel of the South Devon Militia. Mr. Kelly was defcended from an antient and diftinguished family in Ireland, the dignity of which he well maintained. After fhewing the danger and honor of a British foldier during the feven years war, he returned home and married Mifs Parker, fifter to the late and aunt to the prefent Lord Boringdon, and coufin to the prefent Earl Poulett. To the Lady Mr. Kelly had been long att ched. He was a truly amiable character, being eminently diftinguished by his benevolence to the poor, his extraordinary tenderness and affection to his relatives and friends, and by an uniform endeavour to render happy all with whom he was connected.

At Kentish Town, aged 84, John Little, efq. Some days previous to his death, his phyfician perfuaded him to take a little wine, as indifpenfibly neceffary to recruit his decayed ftrength, occafioned by his miferable and parfimonious living. Mr. Little, fearful of trufting his fervants with the key of the wine cellar, infifted upon his carrying him down ftairs, to get a fingle bottle; when the fudden tranfition from a warm bed to a damp cellar brought on a fit of apoplexy, which occafioned his death. On examination, it appeared that he poffeffed upwards of 25,000l. in the different tontines; 11,000l. in the 4 per cents. befides 2000 per ann. of landed property; which now devolves to a brother, to whom he never afforded the leaft affiftance, on account of his being married, matrimony being a ftate into which he himself never entered, and for which he always entertained the greatest deteftation. He refided upwards of forty years in the fame house, one room of which had not been occupied for the space of 14 years: but which on his death was found to contain 173 pairs of breeches, with a large proportion of other articles of wearing apparel, all which were in fuch a wretched ftate of decay, that they were fold to a Jew for a fingle half guinea. In the coach-houfe were difcovered, fecreted in different parts of the building, 180 wigs, which had been bequeathed to him by different relatives, and in which he fet great ftore. At Iflington, on Sunday, April 15th, the John Williams, L. L. D. He was born at Lampeter, Cardiganshire, South Wales, on the 25th of March 1727. His father, a refpectable tanner, placed him at the freefchool in that town. Having very early expreffed a strong inclination for the miniftry, when he had acquired a competent know ledge of the claffics, he was admitted a ftudent at the diffenting academy, at Carmarthen. Here he affiduously cultivated thofe ftudies that would qualify him for the office of a chriftian minifter, and made confiderable mprovement in the mathematics. On the

tion of his academical courfe, he ac

cepted an invitation from the rev. M
Howell, of Birmingham, to affift him in the
fuperintendance of a large fchool. In 1752,
he was chofen paftor of a congregation at
Stamford, Lincolnshire, where he continued
near three years, when he removed to Wok-
ingham, Berks. During his refidence at this
place, he completed his "Concordance to the
Greek Telament, with an English verfion, and
fport Critical Notes" printed in 1767. Being
defirous of a fituation near London, where he
had formed an extenfive acquaintance, on
the death of the rev. Mr. Baron, he accepted
the paftoral charge of the Diffenting church
at Sydenham. In 1768 he married Mrs.
Martha Still, the widow of a very refpectable
member of his late congregation at Woking-
ham. On her deceafe in 1777, he was
elected curator of Dr. Daniel Williams's li-
brary, in Red Cross street: a library, from
its fituation, little known to the public,
though it contains a large collection of fcarce
and very valuable books, and almoft all the
works of the Nonconformists. The advan-
tages of this fituation, enabled him to pro-
cure every information he could with, on
fubject that had much engaged his thoughts;
the authenticity of the two firft chapters of
St. Matthew's gofpel. The refult of his in-
quiry he published in his "Thoughts on the
Origin of Languages. While he refided at the
library, he married in Jan. 1781, Mifs
Elizabeth Dunn, one of the daughters of
Joshua Dunn, Efq. of Newington Green,
formerly a very refpectable merchant of the
city of London, and one of the most useful
laymen among the diffenters. From the
fluctuations which frequently take place in
the villages near London, the number of
diffenters had fo far decreased, that, on the
expiration of the leafe of the chapel, the
Doctor, finding the infirmities of age rapidly
advancing, refolved to refign the office of the
miniftry, and devote the remainder of his
life to ftudy and the fociety of a few friends.
At the time of his decease, he had nearly
completed the printing of a tranflation of
"Cheitomeus's Græco-Barbara Novi Teftamenti,"
&c. which will be fhortly published.
work defigned to explain fome difficult paf-
fages of fcripture. He was the author of fe-
veral pamphlets on different fubjects, and
printed a few feparate fermons. His focial
virtues fecured to him the efteem of his ac-
quaintance and friends; and his deceafe will
be long and deeply felt by his mourning
widow.

A

On the 3d of April, after a few days illnefs, at his houfe near Hermitage Stairs, Wapping, in the 69th year of his age, Mr. John Livie, a gentleman well known in the literary world, for his deep and accurate knowledge of the learned languages. Hi fmall, but beautiful and correct edition of Horace, will be a lafting monument to his memory; and the benevolence and integrity of his character, must render his lofs a fubjet of the deepest regret to all who had the happiness of his acquaintance.

PROVINCIAL OCCURRENCES.

NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM.

A most ingenious and yet fimple combination of machinery, for the purposes of regulating the conveyance of waggons, laden with coals, down an inclofed plane, from Benayell collery, on the north-fide of the Tyne, to the Staith at the border of the river, and for bringing up the waggons, when unloaded, by the fame power that refted its projectile impetus in the defcent, kas lately been perfected and brought into pfe by Mr. Barnes, The length of the rail way, on which the waggon runs, is 864 ards, which diftance it defcends in two minutes and a half, and reafcends in the fame fpace of time; fo that the loaded waggon can be let down with eafe and fafety, the coal discharged, and the empty waggon returned to the pit, within the compals of feven inutes! The impelling and the refifting powers of motion, are derived from a plummet, weighing 164 cwt, which the waggon in defcending and afcending, alternately raifes and lowers the depth of 144 yards, The ope, by which the waggon is impeded and accelerated, winds rounds the axis of a large wheel, in a niche or groove in the middle, that gives the rope only space to coil round upon itself, and thereby guards against all poffibility of entanglement. Near to the axis of the large coiling wheel, there is an oblique inindention of cast iron, which correfponds with and works into a fimilar conformation on the rim of a smaller wheel; round which the plummet rope is coiled or warped, and is, in confequence thereof, moved round only once in fix rotations of the fufpending and retracting wheel, which exactly correfponds with the elevation of the weight and the defcent of the waggon. To preferve the rope from injury, by dragging on the ground, rollers with iron pivots and brafs fockets, for it to run upon, are elevated in the middle of the rail-way; but fufficiently low to prove no obstruction to the waggon, which pafles over them.
