Excerpt from The Gentleman's Magazine, and Historical Chronicle, Vol. 97: From January to June, 1827; Part the First Biography has always formed a distinguishing feature of the Gentle man's Magazine; and in this First Part of our Ninety-seventh Volume we have devoted a considerable portion of our pages to the Obituary. The most prominent character is the late illustrious and lamented Duke of York - the zealous and noble-minded defender of the Protestant Church, and the uncompromising opponent of Popery. His loss will long be lamented by every friend of the Establishment, and his memory will remain embalmed in the grateful recollections of an admiring peo ple. - Literature has to lament the loss of a Mitford, a Kitchiner, an Evans, show, a Benger, &c.; and Science will long deplore the ah sence of a Brun, a Bode, a La Place, a Robertson, a Beethoven, and a Flaxman, whose talents and services to the community, individually, our Biographer has faithfully recorded. The memoir of Joseph Cra dock, eeq. (the associate of Johnson, Garrick, Goldsmith, and other distinguished members of the celebrated Literary Club, ) occupies an ample space in our pages, and will he perused with feelings of interest by all the admirers of that particular main which he flourished. Amongst the gallant sons of departed worth are the names of Hastings, Stewart, Twiss, and Markham, - the relation of whose manly virtues and heroic deeds will be read with the most lively emotions by the latest posterity, - Many individuals, distinguished for talent and private worth, connected with the Church, the Law, or other respectable situations in life, have likewise received that tribute from our Biographer's pen which their respective merits demanded. - As the Gentleman's Ma gazine has always maintained an acknowledged superiority over all cotemporary Publications in biographical literature, it has been, and always will be, our principal aim not only to preserve but to increase its reputation in this important department. For this purpose we shall always thankfully receive, from our numerous friends and correspond ents, every species of information relative to distinguished deceased individuals.
