which they were all transported to America, where the little community was established in various handicraft trades; the members of it prospered under the blessing of his care, and lived to shew that the black skin inclosed hearts as full of gratitude, and minds as capable of improvement, as that of the proudest white. Such was the conduct of this Enlish merchant! During all this course of welldoing, his own manners were simple, his hospitality large, and his charities universal. He founded a house of industry near his own residence, on such solid principles, that, though it cost him 15001. for several years, he succeeded in his object of making it a source of comfort, and even of independence, to all the, well disposed families of the poor around. The numberless individual acts of his benevolence, though discriminate, was never degraded by the narrowness of a religious distinction. Mr David Barclay was twice married -he had but one daughter by his first marriage, who was married to Richard Gurney, esq. of Norwich. She was a most beautiful and benevolent woman, every way worthy of such a father. She died some years ago, leaving issue, Hudson Gurney, esq. and the wife of Sampson Hanbury, esq.-Nothing could surpass the tranquillity of his last moments. He was composed, cheerful, and resigned. He had no struggle with life; he rather ceased to live than felt the pang of death.

NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM.

On Monday, the 15th May, the inhabitants of Alnwick, and its vicinity, were gratified by the completion of an undertaking hitherto unattempted in the north, viz. the delivering of coals at Alnwick, from Shilbottle colliery, by waggons conveyed along a metal rail-road. The immense sums annually paid for this indispensable necessary of lite in the county-town of Northumberland, have long been severely felt, and of late years have produced the effect of almost depriving the poorer classes of the community of so essential a comfort in this chill climate: coals have lately been sold to the consumer at the exhorbitant rate of two guincas a Newcastle chaldron, (a price unexampled in any other part of the county,) nearly one-half of which was charged by hired cartmen for leading. The rail-road passes invariably through the grounds of his Grace the Duke of Northumberland, the proprietor of the mine; and, by its judicious direction, the distance is only three miles from the colliery to the staith, possessing the most important advantage, that not a shilling way-leave is paid. Coals have already considerably fallen in price; and the whole of this spirited and laudable undertaking has been planned and executed by, and at the sole expense of, Mr. John Taylor, the lessee of Shilbottle colliery.
