THE DUKE OF LEEDS, K.G.

July 10. In London, aged nearly 63, the Most Noble George William Frederick Osborne, sixth Duke of Leeds (1694), Marquis of Carmarthen (1689), Earl of Danby, co. York (1674), Viscount Latimer, of Danby, and Baron Osborne, of Kiveton, co. York (1673), Baron Conyers, of Hornby Castle (by writ, 1509), all titles in the English peerage; fifth Viscount Osborne, of Dunblane, co. Perth (1675), and the sixth Baronet, of Kiveton, co. York (1620); a Knight of the Garter; a Privy Councillor, Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding of York, Governor of the island of Scilly, Ranger of Richmond Forest, Constable of Middleham Castle, &c. &c.

His Grace was born July 21, 1775, the elder son of Francis- Godolphin the fifth Duke, by his first wife the Rt. Hon. Lady Amelia D'Arcy, Baroness Conyers, only daughter and heiress of Robert fourth and last Earl of Holdernesse. His mother (whose marriage was dissolved by act of parliament in 1779) died during his minority, Jan. 26, 1784; and on his coming of age, he presented a petition to the House of Lords, claiming the barony of Conyers in right of his maternal descent. On the 27th April, 1798, the House resolved and adjudged that the petitioner, George - William-Frederick Marquis of Carmarthen, bad made out his claim to the title, honour, and dignity of Baron Conyers; and he immediately received his writ of summons accordingly. He never, however, took much interest in politics, and when a young man spent a considerable length of time in Italy. He usually gave his vote in Parliament with the Tory party.

On the 31st Jan. 1799 he succeeded his father in the dukedom, and in the same year he was appointed Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding of Yorkshire. On the 4th May 1827 he was appointed Master of the Horse, and on the 10th of the same month be was sworn a Privy Councillor. On the latter day also he was elected a Knight of the Order of the Garter. He resigned the office of Master of the Horse with the Duke of Welling ton's administration in Nov. 1830. At the ceremony of the Coronation of King William IV. Sept. 8, 1831, the Duke of Leeds was one of the four Knights of the Garter who held over the King's head the pall of gold at the ceremony of anointing. As a supporter of the turf no one was more respected. He was, in fact, admitted to be a pattern for everything up Aug. 1838, No. 12.

right and honourable. It should be borne in mind that to the northern turf he was essentially devoted, for he seldom sent horses south of Doncaster. The influence of his character was great in the best sense of the word; for in his own neighbourhood he was truly "the fine old English gentleman," and sought not to be great from home.

In 1811 his Grace pulled down the ancient mansion-house at Kiveton, which up to that time had been the principal residence of the family, from the reign of James the First (see Hunter's History of South Yorkshire, vol. i. p. 142). It was quitted for the more magnificent castle of Hornby, in the same county, the seat of his mother's family, the Barons Conyers, and Earls of Holdernesse.

His Grace was present at the Coronation of the Queen, though his Duchess was prevented from attending by serious illness. He was taken ill only three days before his death. His body was interred, on the 16th of July, under Trinity Church, Osnaburgh-street, Regent's Park.

He married Aug. 17, 1797, Lady Charlotte Townshend, sixth daughter of George first Marquis Townshend, and aunt to the present Marquis; and had issue two sons and one daughter: 1. the Most Noble Francis-Godolphin-Darcy, now Duke of Leeds, born in 1798; 2. Lady Charlotte-Mary-Anne-Georgiana, married in 1826 to Sackville Lane Fox, esq. of Bramham Park, Yorkshire, and died in 1836; and 3. Lord Conyers George Thomas William Osborne, who was accidentally killed in a struggle with a young friend, when a member of Christ church, Oxford, Feb. 19, 1831.

The present Duke formerly sat in Parliament (as Marquis of Carmarthen) for Helston; but has not been a member of the House of Commons since the passing of the Reform Act. At the Coronation of her present Majesty he was (only a few days before his father's death) called up to the House of Peers in the barony of Osborne. He married April 24, 1828, Louisa - Catharine, third daughter of Richard Caton, of Maryland, esq. widow of Sir Felton Elwell Bathurst Hervey, Bart. and sister to the Marchioness of Wellesley. By that lady he has no issue; and the present heir presumptive to the dukedom is Lord Godolphin, the late Duke's only brother.

THE MARQUIS OF ORMONDE. May 18. At O'Dienne's hotel, Dublin, after an illness of thirteen days, produced by a severe cold, aged 63, the Most Hon. James Butler, first Marquis of Ormonde (1825), nineteenth Earl of Ormonde (1327), eleventh Earl of Ossory (1527), tenth Viscount Thurles, co. Tipperary (1535), all titles of the kingdom of Ireland; first Baron Ormonde, of Llanthony, co. Monmouth, in the peerage of the United Kingdom (1821); a Knight of St. Patrick; Hereditary Chief Butler of Ireland; Vice-Admiral of Leinster, Lord Lieutenant and Custos Rotulorum of the county of Kilkenny; Colonel of the Kilkenny militia, and an Aide-de-camp to the Queen for the militia, &c. &c.

His Lordship was born July 15, 1774, the third son of John the 17th Earl of Ormonde, by Anne, daughter and sole heiress of John Earl of Wandesford.

In 1802 he was returned to Parliament as one of the knights for the county of Kilkenny; for which, having been reelected in 1806, 1807, 1812, and 1818, he sat until his succession to the peerage. In 1805 he voted in favour of the claims of the Irish catholics.

As the Hon. James Butler, he took an active and meritorious part in the defence of his native country, on the formation of the yeomanry corps. He himself commanded the Fessaghdineen Fessaghdineen and the Castle Comer infantry, together with the Kilkenny legion.

On the death of his brother Walter Marquis of Ormonde, Aug. 10, 1820, he succeeded to the titles of Earl of Ormonde and Ossory, &c. the marquisate (conferred on his brother in 1816) and the British barony of Butler of Llanthony, (conferred in 1801) 1801) then becoming extinct: but at the shortly subsequent coronation of King George George the Fourth, he created a British peer by the title of Baron Ormonde of Lla Llanthony, July 17, 1821; and. Oct. 5, 1825, the dignity of Marquis of Ormonde was again revived in his favour. He was nominated a Knight of St. Patrick in 1821.

was

In Parliament he sided with the Whig party, and he gave his vote in favour of the reform of Parliament.

His Lordship married Oct. 12, 1807, Grace-Louisa, daughter of the Right Hon. John Staples, of the county of Tyrone, by Harriet, daughter and coheiress of Richard Viscount Molesworth; and by that lady, who survives him, he had issue five sons and five daughters: 1. the Most Hon. John now Marquis of Ormonde, born in 1808, and at present unmarried; 2. Lady Harriet-Eleanor-Wandesford, married in 1831 to Robert Fowler, esq. eldest son of Robert Lord Bishop of Ossory; 3. Lord Walter Wandesford Butler, an officer in the army; 5. Lord GENT. MAG, VOL. X.

James Wandesford Butler, also in the army; 6. Lady Louisa-Grace-Wandesford; 7. Lord Richard Molesworth Wandesford Butler; 8. Lord Charles Wandesford Butler; 9. Lady Elizabeth; and 10. Lady Mary-Charlotte, born in 1823.

BARON FAGEL.

Lately. Henry Baron Fagel, formerly Ambassador from Holland at the Court of Great Britain.

He was the grandson of the Secretary of the States General of Holland, who died in 1790, at the age of 84 years, of which fifty-six had been employed in administration. The late Baron was sent, in Nov. 1793, to Copenhagen, on a secret mission to engage the Court of Denmark to join with the other powers coalesced against the French republic, a mission in which his zeal drew upon him the hatred of the republicans of Holland, who wished to overthrow the family of Orange. In July 1794 he signed, at the head quarters of the Prince of Cobourg, the treaty of alliance between the States-General and the Kings of Prussia and Great Britain, to the formation of which his able negociations had materially contributed.

After the conquest of Holland by the French, the Baron partook of the misfortunes of the house of Orange, and withdrew from the country. After returning with the Stadtholder, he countersigned the manifesto of the 21st Nov. 1813, in which the Dutch were invited to unite in shaking off the French yoke. On the 18th April following he concluded

in London a convention relative to the restitution of certain Dutch colonies, conquered by Great Britain during the war; on the 19th May 1815, having been appointed a Councillor of State, he signed another convention with Great Britain and Russia, relative to the Russian loan in Holland.

COUNT SOMMARIVA.

Lately. At Paris, Count Sommariva, well known as an enlightened patron of the fine arts.

He was a native of Milan; and at the period when the French invaded Lombardy, was in high repute as a barrister. He declared in favour of the revolution, was successively appointed to several offices, and was at length made Secretarygeneral of the directory of the Cisalpine republic. When the Austro-Russians overran Italy, in 1799, he took refuge at Paris, with many of his compatriots. After the battle of Marengo had restored the republican order of things in Italy, Sommariva became one of the directors, and this situation he held till the estab.

lishment of the presidentship, when he was chosen a member of the college of possidenti or proprietors. His talents for public affairs were of the highest order, and were eminently conspicuous whilst he was in authority. He was no less excellent as an orator than as a statesman; and the speech which he pronounced on resigning the government into the hands of Count Melzi was considered a masterpiece of eloquence.

Subsequently Count Sommariva resided at Paris; where his hotel was the shrine of a valuable collection of pictures, and above all of that chef-d'œuvre of Canova, his unrivalled Magdalene.

CHIEF BARON JOY.

June 5. At Woodstown, co. Dublin, aged 71, the Rt. Hon. Henry Joy, Chief Baron of her Majesty's Exchequer in Ireland, and a Privy Councillor of that kingdom.

Mr. Joy was called to the bar in Trinity term 1788; and he enjoyed high reputation as an able lawyer, and much consideration as an advocate. There was a quiet ready playfulness of manner about him, which enabled him to make great way with a jury, or when replying to the arguments of a rival orator. Lord Norbury once was asked by Mr. Hope, the attorney, to wait a few minutes for Mr. Joy, his leading counsel, in a nisi prius case just then called on in the Court of Common Pleas. He did so until his small stock of patience was exhausted; then exclaiming, "Hope told a flattering tale, that Joy would soon return," ordered the next number to be proceeded with. Mr. Joy succeeded the present Lord Chancellor as Attorney-general for Ireland, but never took a seat in Parliament, although frequently pressed to sit for a northern borough. When Lord Guillamore retired from the Exchequer in 1831, Mr. Joy succeeded to the office of Chief Baron, in which he always displayed the utmost impartiality, with a decidedly constitutional sense of inflexible justice and humanity. He was never married. In private life he was a religious, highlyhonourable, courteous gentleman, and will long be regretted by every man of similar feelings in the profession.

On the 15th June his friends assembled in the great room of Morrison's Hotel, to deliberate on the propriety of paying some tribute to his memory. It is probable that a splendid mural monument, in white marble, will be erected in the church of Monkstown, in the vaults of which his remains were deposited.

LT. GEN. SIR THOMAS DYER, BART.

April 12. In Clarges-street, Sir Thos, Richard Swinnerton Dyer, the sixth Baronet (1678), a Lieutenant-General in the British and Spanish services, and Knight Grand Cross of the orders of San Hermenegildo and Isabel la Catolica.

He was the only son and heir of Sir John Swinnerton Dyer, a Colonel in the army, and Groom of the Bedchamber to the Prince of Wales, by a daughter of Mr. Vicary. He was appointed a Lieut. in the 7th foot, June 28,1783; Captain-Lieut. in May 1791, and Lieut. and Captain in the first foot guards in 1793. He served the campaigns in Flanders; in 1797 was appointed Major by brevet; in 1799 served in the expedition to the Helder as Assistant Adjutant-general; Captain and Lieut.Colonel in the foot guards, Oct. 25, 1799; and in 1800 and 1801 served in Egypt.

He succeeded to the title on his father's death March 31, 1801.

In June 1808 Sir Thomas was sent on a military mission to Spain, where he remained with the army of the Insurgents under General Cuesta, and returned to England in July. He was sent on another mission to Spain in the Sept. following, and returned in December; when he was appointed Assistant-Quartermaster-general at home, in which situation he continued some time. He was appointed Lieut. Colonel of the York rangers, March 31, 1808, Colonel by brevet 1809, Major-General 1815, and Lieut.- General 1825.

He married Elizabeth, daughter of the late James Standerwicke, of Ovingtonhouse, co. Hants, esq. but had no issue. He is succeeded in his title, we believe, by a cousin, a son of the late Thomas Dyer, esq, who died in 1800.

SIR JAMES FERGUSSON, BART. April 14. At Edinburgh, aged 73, Sir James Fergusson, the third Baronet (1703) of Kilkerran, co. Ayr.

Sir James was the nephew and heir of Sir Adam Fergusson, LL.D. formerly M. P. for Ayrshire and afterwards for the city of Edinburgh, and heir-general of the Earls of Glencairn, which title he unsuccessfully claimed in 1796. Sir James succeeded his uncle in the baronetcy Sept. 23, 1813.

He was twice married: first, in 1799, to Jean, second daughter of Sir David Dalrymple, of Hailes, Bart. by whom he had one son, his successor, and two daughters. Having lost his first wife in 1803, he married secondly in the following year the Hon. Henrietta Duncan, second daughter of Admiral Lord Duncan, and sister to the present Earl of Camperdown. By that lady, who survives him, he had issue eight sons and five daughters.

The present Baronet, now Sir Charles Dalrymple Fergusson, of Hailes, is an advocate of the Scottish bar, and married in 1829 Helen, second daughter of the Rt. Hon. David Boyle, Lord Justice Clerk.

SIR DIGBY MACKWORTH, BART. May 2. Aged 71, Sir Digby Mackworth, the third Bart. (1776) of Gnoll Castle, co. Glamorgan.

a

He was born May 14, 1766, the younger son of Sir Herbert the first Baronet, by the Hon. Juliana Digby, daughter of William fifth Lord Digby. He was s formerly formerly a Gentleman Commoner of Magdalen college, Oxford; and afterwards, ards, for short time, in the Royal Navy. In 1794 he succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his brother Sir Robert Humphrey Mackworth, who died without issue, but left all his estates to his widow, who remarried Capel Hanbury Leigh, of Ponty-pool, co. Monmouth, esq. In 1798 Sir Digby became Lieut. Col. commandant of the city of Oxford loyal volunteers, and he received the honorary degree of D. C.L. from the University June 18, 1799. On the renewal of the war in 1803 he again accepted the command of the Oxford regiment of volunteers, but resigned it in

1804.

Sir Digby Mackworth married first, in 1788, Jane only daughter and heiress of the Rev. Matthew Deere, by whom he had issue four sons and seven daughters: 1. Sir Digby Mackworth, who has succeeded to the title; he was born in 1789, is a Major in the army, and married in 1823 Sophia-Noel, daughter of James Mann, esq. and grand-daughter of Sir Horace Mann, Bart.; 2. Herbert; 3. Charlotte-Harriet; 4. Arthur-FrancisJohn; 5. William-Harcourt-Isham: 6. Frances-Juliana; 7. Mary, married in 1819 to the Rev. Dr. Cleaver, eldest son of the Archbishop of Dublin; 8. Augusta; 9. Anna-Maria, who died in 1819; 10. Georgiana-Lucy; and 11. MatildaJane.

Having lost his first lady in 1808, Sir Digby married secondly, in 1821, Philippa, daughter of the Rev. James Affleck, Prebendary of Southwell, and sister to the present Rev. Sir Robert Affleck, Bart. Prebendary of York. We believe she also died before him.

SIB JOSEPH COPLEY, BART. May 21. In Whitehall Yard, in his 70th year, Sir Joseph Copley, the third Bart. (1778) of Sprotborough, co. York,

father of Lady Howick, great-uncle to the Marquis of Abercorn, and brother-inlaw to Lord Manners.

He was the younger son of Sir Joseph Copley, the first Baronet of the second creation of 1778, by Mary, daughter of John Francis Buller, of Morval in Cornwall, Bart. Paternally, the first Sir Joseph was of the family of Moyle, of Bake, in that county; but through the families of Copley and FitzWilliam, the Baronet now deceased was heir of the body and lineal representative of Albreda de Lizours, heiress of Sprotborough in the reign of Henry II. (See Hunter's History of South Yorkshire, vol. I. p. 342.)

The late Baronet succeeded to the title on the decease of his brother Sir Lionel, who died unmarried, April 11, 1801. He was formerly in the army, and attained the rank of Colonel.

Sir Joseph Cople Copley married, May 23, 1799, Cecil, eighth daughter of the Hon. and Rev. George Hamilton, fourth son of James second Earl of Abercorn. Her Ladyship's first marriage with her cousin John James Marquess of Hamilton, K.G. (by whom she was mother of the present Countess of Wicklow) had been dissolved by act of Parliament in the preceding month. The Marquess's first wife (grandmother of the present Marquess) had been Sir Joseph Copley's sister. Lady Copley died June 19, 1819, leaving issue one son, now Sir Joseph William Copley, Bart. born in 1804; 2. the Rt. Hon. Maria Viscountess Howick, married in 1832 to Henry Lord Viscount Howick, heir apparent to Earl Grey; and 3. another daughter. Sir Godfrey's funeral took place on the 26th May at St. George's, Bayswater; the hearse was followed by the carriages of the cabinet ministers, and those of many other friends of the deceased.

SIR R. C. GLYN, BART.

April 27. In Arlington street, aged 83, Sir Richard Carr Glyn, of Gaunts, co. Dorset, Bart. late an Alderman of London, and Father of the City, President of Bridewell and Bethlehem hospitals, F.S.A. &c. &c.

He was the eldest son, by the second marriage, of Sir Richard Glyn, Lord Mayor in 1758, and who at the close of his mayoralty in 1759 was advanced to a baronetcy, which is now enjoyed by his grandson (by his first wife), Sir Lewen Powell Glyn, of Ewell, co. Surrey, Bart. His mother was Elizabeth, daughter and co-heiress of Robert Carr, esq. brother to Sir Robert Carr, of Etall, co. Northumberland, Bart.
