In all of these, and many other scenes of active duty, he set an example of energy and unshrinking exertion, seldom paralleled, and never exceeded. To high attainments in biblical literature, he added that intimate acquaintance with subjects of an eccle

siastical nature, which procured him the respect of all the friends of the National Church, many of whose ministers, especially the clergy of London, were essentially indebted to the application of his powerful talents, and unwearied researches, for the vindication of their rights and privileges. And it cannot fail to be gratifying to his numerous friends to learn, that the closing scene of his long and useful life, bordering upon 80 years, was marked by testimonies of peace and hope, as his career had been characterized by independence of mind, and integrity of conduct.

POLITICAL RETROSPECT.

THE most important domestic events of the last month may be comprised under the head of parliamentary proceedings; and as they constitute the general result of a long and busy session, they ought not to be passed over without a few remarks.

The estimates submitted by ministers to the House of Commons have been canvassed with extraordinary minuteness and perseverance; and the consequence undoubtedly is a very general conviction that material retrenchment may be effected. In fact, the point has been conceded by ministers themselves, and they have pledged themselves to make reductions before Parliament re-assembles. This circumstance is so far satisfactory and important, as it shews, that at a period of general distress the administration is ready to surrender a

part of its own patronage, and to abridge the emoluments, and consequently the comforts of its own friends and dependents. And it also proves, what the incredulous are unwilling to believe, that the House of Commons still exercises an efficient controul over the executive departments of the state. But if any persons imagine that the burdens of the country can be effectually lightened by the abolition of sinecures, or the reduction of salaries, we have no hesitation in pronouncing them grievously mistaken It is hardly possible that any re-modelling or retrenchment can produce a greater annual saving than two hundred thousand pounds: and what taxes can be repealed in consequence of such a reduction?
