On the 21ft of November, 1797. died, in Gravel-lane, Southwark, John Macquire, aged 65, whofe eventful life might furnish materials for an interesting history, if the humble annals of the poor could lay claim to public attention. ·He was originally bred a gardener, but from circumftances became a feaman, in which capacity he ferved his country on board the Medway man of war, when that ship, under the command of Commodore John Bladen Tinker, efq. affifted at the fiege of Pondicherry, in the old French war; and shared in the bounty of the Nabob of Arcot, on that occafion. Returning on the conclufion of peace to the occupation of a day labourer, he worked occafionally at a foundry in Southwark, till the time of the American war, when his active spirit again prompting him to the service of his country, he entered on board the Mary Letter of Marque, of London, commanded by Capt. Robert Beatly, in which fhip he made a voyage to the Weft Indies. On his return, being taken into the navy, he ferved on board the Acteon man of war, in a voyage to Africa and the Weft Indies, whence he was transferred to the Grampus store hip, bound to England. From this fhip, difmafted, water-logged, and foundering, he was almost miraculously laved by his old commander Captain Beatly, who fortunately came in fight, when the Grampus was in the greatest distress. He was now again conveyed to the Weft Indies, and having become an invalid, was fent home in a Transport. After traverfing the Atlantic in fafety, the veflet foundered in fight of land. He was once more faved, and got on thore near Plymouth in 1780, from whence, coming to London, he was admitted into Greenwich Hofpital. Marrying afterwards, and becoming an out-penfioner, he fettled near Portsmouth, his wife having a penfion from the TrinityHoufe. On the fmall income thus arifing, about 81. 16s. per annum, and the produce of their joint labour, they maintained themselves and their child, now an orphan, of 11 years old, and totally deftitute, his mother dying in Auguft laft, and leaving no relative capable of giving him fupport. On Monday, the 15th, at her fon-in-law's, Mr. Jofeph Weald, Blackman-ft. Southwark, In the 76th year of her age, Mrs. Experience Noble, relict of the rev. Daniel Noble, who was for many years the respectable Paftor of a general Baptift Church in Barbican (now meeting in Worship-street) and of a Sabbatarian congregation in Mill-yard, Goodman's-fields. This worthy woman, after a long life of activity and usefulness, fuffered a gradual decay of body and mind. fhort period previous to her diffolution, she lay in a state of infenfibility, and at laft became unable to receive her accustomed nourishment. Such is the humiliating condition to which our frail nature is fubject, but this imbecility will be amply recompenced at the refurrection of the just. J. E.

A corn market, to be held weekly, every Friday, under the fanction of the Earl of Egremont, will be opened at Heiket New Market, on the 2d day of February. The great distance of any other market gives ground to hope, that in point of time, trouble and expence, both buyers and fellers will reap effential benefit from this establishment. A fow, kept at Hollowmire, near Ulverfton, which was only four years old last September, has farrowed 229 pigs, which, on an average, is 57 per year; and, except the first time, always brought up 13. Within 19 weeks and three days, the farrowed twice. This affords a plain proof, that, as foon as the pigs are taken off, the fow will breed again directly. The animal in question went to the male the very next day, and the young were taken away at three weeks old, which is contrary to the generally received notion. The owner of this pig has cleared 40 pounds by her, within these four years. The laft year but one, he cleared 131. 145. Such fuccefs ought to encourage farmers in the breed of pigs, which might be rendered a great national and individual benefit. Henry Fisher, of High Bark-House, in the parish of Setmurthy, lately put an end to his own existence, by hanging. He had frequently given intimations of his defign to his wife, who not only was particularly vigilant herself to defeat his purpofe, but engaged feveral of the neighbours to watch him in his folitary walks. One day, however, whilft fome boys were play ing rear his barn, he entered it, locked the door after him, and thruft the key under t, fo as to be eafily obferved. From the general complexion of the circumstances, it appears, that his intentions were rather to create an alarm, than actually to destroy himfelf. But, upon the door being unlocked, the unhappy man was found dead. He had hung himfel', and the rope reaking, he fell over a cart, by which accident he broke his back.
