his mind, he difplayed an early propenfity for vice, and continued through life the flave to uncontrolled and libidinous paffion. Perhaps we might plead in excufe, that he was formed with a fenfibility peculiarly fine, and paffions eafily excited; and, being of a gay, focial difpofition, he could not, after he had emerged from the overwhelming obfcurity which clouded his young years, collect fufficient ftrength of mind to combat the temptations which accident threw in his way; but, like the unhappy and ill-fated Burns, fullied the gifts of his Creator by intemperance and debauchery; and, at length, fell a facrifice to unlimited indulgence.

Mr. Howard's parents being too poor to put him to fchool, the task of inftruction devolved upon himself; and fo ardent was he in the purfuit of knowledge, that the progrefs he made through the common paths of learning, to the moft abftrufe and fcientific parts of mathematics, was truly amazing. As Mr. Howard advanced in life, his proficiency in the mathematics made him generally esteemed and admired. He now threw off the mechanical profeffion to which he had been apprenticed, and commenced fchoolmafter in a little village near Carlifle. As he advanced, he increased his reputation, and established himfelf in this city, where his affiduity, his abilities, and his love of learning, made him universally refpected. In this fituation, his talents attracted the notice of Dr. Law, Bishop of Elphin, then a Prebendary of Carlifle. By him he was taken to Ireland, where he refided during four years. He afterwards returned to Carlife in the year 1785, and commenced schoolmafter a fecond

tine.

When refident there, he enjoyed an extenfive acquaintance, and was generally refpected for his abilities as a schoolmafter, in which capacity his lofs will be long regretted, as the pupils who ftudied under him have manifefted a proficiency in mathematical ftudies, and a love of elegant literature, that reflect the highest honour on their master. From him they imbibed that love of letters, and relifh for fcience, which are at all times the moft laudable purfuits of human life. Nor were his profeffional talents his only qualification: after his avec tions were finished, he was ge. nerally a welcome guest in thofe evening circles of relaxation,

Thofe calm retreats, where, temperately gay, So oft have fled the ev'ning hours away; Where unambitious minds, congenial, fteer From grave to gay, from lively to fevere; where each, unbending from care, is difpofed to relish the hearty laugh and the harmless joke to which he contributed an ample fhare. His wit was genuine and poignant, and he was fortunate in the occafional fallies he made, which were generally innocent, and tended much to exhilarate the jocund circles that furrounded him.

He continued at Carlife till the year 1794,

when he removed to Newcastle, where hi abilities were amply noticed. There he remained till his conftitution began to fhew the effects of long continued habits of intemperance; and he probably, too late, saw the fallacy and the wickedness of a criminal attachment to pleasure. In 1798, he publifhed "A Treatife on Spherical Geometry ;" a work which evinces the ftrength of his mind and knowledge in mathematics, and which has obtained the approbation of the learned. Finding his health rapidly declining, he gave up his fchool in Newcastle, and retired to a little village in the neighbourhood, called the Leafes, where, amid the filence of folitude, his latter end would be embittered by thofe goading reflections which inevitably arife (and, to a mind of fenfibility, with double force) on the review of a life where talents have been mifapplied and faculties perverted. At this place he closed his life, in the forty-fixth year of his age, on Tuesday, March 26.

It is not in the power of the writer of this article, to do juftice to the abilities or the focial qualities of Mr. Howard. Nature had bleffed him with a ftrong and mafculine understanding, a mind of fingular energy, capacity, and vigour, and a memory that was qualified to preferve whatever was valuable in the writings of others. Though he had fo long devoted himself to abstract mathematical ftudies, his imagination remained lively and vivid, and his heart overflowed with a keen and ardent fenfibility. To talents of the firft order he joined a perfevering and fteady industry, till feduced by the fyren of diffipation. This he evinced by the enviable proficiency he made in mathematics, which, together with his knowledge in the other branches of fcience, was achieved" without the affiftance of the learned," or "the fmiles of the opulent."-To the cool and logical niceties of the mathematician, he united their oppofite qualities, the fire and enthufiafm of the poet. The productions of his mufe, if not characterised by any extraordinary energy, or lofty flights of imagination, poffefs fingular traits of pathos, nature, and fimplicity. They were generally the prompt ebullitions of first impreffions, and produced upon temporary fubjects. Some of thefe, which were fongs, he fang himself with great humour.

To thefe talents were joined focial qualities of the first eminence-a brilliant and ready wit, that found in every object and circumftance of life fubject for mirth and gaiety. While impartial biography must condemn thofe intemperate orgies which are fo difgraceful to men; we must acknowledge that the mirth, good humour, and facetiousness, which were fo alive in Howard, have often charmed and delighted us; and it is with a fincere affection we pay this feeble tribute to his memory. Knowing well the depth of his mind, and extent of his talents, we regret the more that he was ever allured from the

path

paths of fcience, in which, if he had perfevered with the fame ardour he fhewed in the outfet of his life, he in all probability would have been yet living, and would in time, it is fond y withed, have realifed the hope of his early friends and contemporaries, in making himself an ornament to his fpecies and his country.
