At Grange House, Robert Forrester, Esq. treasurer of the Bank of Scotland.-In noticing the death of this estimable character, we speak the feelings of our fellow citizens, when we state how severely his departure is lamented, and how much his loss will be felt. For above half a century, Mr Forrester filled different departments in the Bank of Scotland, and for many years previous to his death, was the treasurer, or principal officer, of that establishment. The public know the fidelity with which he discharged. the functions of that responsible situation, blending the firmness of official duty with the mildness and kindness of a benevolent heart. Himself the son of a Scottish clergyman, he was the founder of the Society of the Sons of the Clergy, and displayed his usual zeal in originating and promoting an institution, which has proved of incalculable advantage to the families of many. Through life the faith and precepts of the Christian religion never failed to animate him. He was for more than forty years an elder in the New Greyfriars Church. Unassuming manners, joined to a temper highly cheerful and social, rendered his company most engaging, and endeared him not only to his particular friends, but to society at large.

Extract of a letter from Missolonghi, 30th July -11th August-1824:-" It is with the deepest regret that we have to announce the death of Lord Charles Murray, youngest son of the Duke of Atholl. His lordship was attacked by the fever of the country, on his journey from Napoli to Missolonghi, at the residence of Mr Georgio Sestini, in Gastouni, where he expired in the prime of his youth, on the 11th of August, new style, at 10 a. m. He was aged 25 years; and although so young, had evinced, from the moment his foot pressed our country, the most noble and philanthropic sentiments, with an ardour to fulfil them as far as lay in his power. Before leaving this place, he had united his name to that of our countrymen, and had furnished the means

of erecting a battery on our frontier line, to which is given the name of one of his most illustrious relations. His amiable disposition had endeared him to all who had the honour of his acquaintance; and his talents and accomplishments shewed him to be a worthy descendant of the noble race from which he sprung. His remains were interred with every mark of the highest respect at Gastouni. General Constantine Bozzanis and Georgio Sestini, all the Suliotes, and the whole population of Gastouni, followed them to the grave. The Archbishop Chirito pronounced the funeral oration. The Greek Chronicle of Missolonghi states, that the feeling of deep sorrow for the premature death of this amiable, accomplished, and enterprising young nobleman, is universal in Greece."

Extract of a letter from Lieutenant Clapperton to Mr Consul Warrington, dated Kano, 2d Feb. 1824:

The melancholy task has fallen to me to report to you the ever-to-be-lamented death of my friend Dr Walter Oudney. We left Kuka on the 14th day of December, 1823, and by easy journeys arrived at Bedukarfea, the westernmost town in the kingdom of Bornou. During this part of the journey he was recovering strength very fast, but on leaving Bedukarfea and entering the Beder territory, on the night of the 26th and morning of the 27th, we had such an intense cold, that the water was frozen in the dishes, and the water-skins as hard as boards. Here the poor Doctor got a severe cold, and continued to grow weaker every day. At this time he told me when he left Kuka, he expected his disorder would allow him to perform all his country expected from him, but that now his death was near, and he requested me to deliver his papers to Lord Bathurst, and to say he wished Mr Barrow might have the arrangement of them, if agreeable to the wishes of his Lordship.

"On the 2d of January, 1824, we arrived at the city of Katagum, where we remained till the 10th, partly to see if the Doctor, by staying a few days, would gain a little strength to pursue his journey. On leaving Katagum he rode a camel, as he was too weak to ride his horse. We proceeded on our

road for 10 miles that day, and then halted, and on the following day 5 miles further, to a town called Murmur. On the morning of the 12th, he ordered the camels to be loaded at daylight, and drank a cup of coffee, and I assisted him to dress. When the camels were loaded, with the assistance of his servant and me he came out of his tent. I saw then that the hand of death was upon him, and that he had not an hour to live. I begged him to return to his tent and lie down, which he did, and I sat down beside him-he expired in about half an hour after.

"I sent immediately to the Governor of the town, to acquaint him with what had happened, and to desire he would point out a spot where I might bury my friend, and also to have people to wash the body and dig the grave, which was speedily complied with. I had dead-clothes made from some turbans that were intended as presents; and as we travelled as Englishmen and servants of his Majesty, I considered it my most indispensable duty to read the service of the dead over the grave, according to the rites of the Church of England, which happily was not objected to; but, on the contrary, I was paid a good deal of respect for so doing. I then bought two sheep, which were killed and given to the poor; and I had a clay wall built round the grave to preserve it."
