Early on Sunday morning, 15th January, after a protracted malady of intense suffering, borne with Christian fortitude and pious resignation, died at his seat at Belmont, in the71st year of his age, John Matthews, Esq. whose death has excited a greater degree of public regret than we have ever before witnessed. The unceasing anxiety of all ranks of people in this city and its neighbourhood during his last illness, exhibited an affecting proof how much and how generally he was beloved. Though it may be truly said of this distinguished individual, that he was a man above all praise, yet it is a gratifying, and perhaps not an useless task, to attempt to delineate, however faintly, a character which conciliated in so remarkable a manner, affection and respect. He was gifted with intellectual faculties seldom found united in the same person, combining the utmost playfulness of fancy with the strongest and most discriminating powers of the mind. His genius, first cultivated at Eaton, and afterwards at Oxford, embraced every depart ment of classical and elegant literature. His poetical effusions were of that peculiar grace and felicity never to be forgotten. He was not less a lover of the fine arts, than an ardent admirer of the beauties of nature; and the scenery of our highlyfavoured county has borrowed additional charms from his tasteful hand. Neither was its agriculture less an object of his attention. Improvement followed his footsteps, and his possessions became discernible at a glance. His intellectual endowments could not fail to designate him for the exercise of the most important public functions. Led by active benevolence to undertake the performance of magisterial duties, he was called by the unanimous voice of his brother magistrates to fill the chair at the Quarter Sessions. With what ability, dignity, and impartiality he discharged, for nearly twenty years, that honourable and laborious trust, is still fresh in our remembrance; nor can it be forgotten, that under his auspices our Shire-hall, so deservedly admired, was begun and completed. During the time he presided at the Quarter Sessions, he was invited to represent his native county in Parliament; and, in acceding to this invitation, he seems rather to have consented to occupy a station which drew upon him increased admiration, than to have desired it. In public, as in private life, his views were large

and liberal. He gave his steady support to the principles of Mr Pitt, and this from motives of such acknowledged purity, that even when the current of party spirit ran highest, he was always treated by his political opponents with marked veneration. The exalted qualities of his mind were hallowed by those of his heart, and his religious and moral conduct shone equally conspicuous. As long as his health permitted, he was never absent from divine service. In all the dif ferent relations of husband, father, friend, the prominent feature of his character was a generous disregard of his own ease to promote that of others. He was the best of landlords, and the best of masters. How entirely he was beloved, how devoutly he was reverenced in that domestic circle, for whom he lived, no language can describe. All the alleviation, through a long course of painful disease to be derived, from filial piety, and angelic tenderness-he received, and most feelingly recorded. Nor did the watchful and assiduous attendance of the physician and the friend fail to be duly appreciated by him, to the last moment of his existence. Such were the talents and the virtues, such the amiable disposition of him whose irreparable loss we deplore of whom it may ba allowed us to exclaim, in the language of his favourite bard, that

"Nature might stand up, And say to all the world, This was a Man!"

We are indebted to a highly respectable correspondent for the above, and presume to add, that the regretted and accomplished individual, whose demise it is our painful duty to record, was senior alderman, and one of the magistrates of this city, one of the senior members of the Royal College of Physicians, and Colonel of the first regiment of local militia of this county. When the country was threatened with invasion by Buonaparte, he formed a volunteer corps, which he ably commanded for several years, and afterwards remained their colonel when they became local militia; on every occasion he conciliated the esteem and sincere regards of officers and men, and had two magnificent silver vases presented to him, at different periods, by the officers, as tributes of veneration and affection.-Hereford Journal
