At Penzance, aged 61, Dr. Borlase, M. D. after a short but severe illness, of an inflammation of the lungs, which he bore with fortitude, himself calmly prescribing to the last hour of his existence the only remedies which were likely to be useful. The Doctor was a native of Penzance, and was an active promoter of the interests of that town. The enlargement of the Quay, and many other beneficial improvements, were begun during his Mayoralty; and that excellent Institution, the Dispensary, was planned under his direction, and conducted by him with great professional skill and indefatigable attention. His mind was well informed, and his taste classically cultivated. He began the rudiments of his education at the grammarschool; afterwards he was removed to Exeter, where he was class-fellow with Sir Vicary Gibbs; and he completed his medical studies under the celebrated Fordyce, whose practice he warmly admired and uniformly followed. He had the honour of initiating Sir Humphrey Davy into the knowledge of medicine, and of appreciating the promising genius of that eminent Philosopher. The loss of his professional talents is deplored by all who knew him, and particularly the poor. May 8. In Leadenhall-street, aged 80, Samuel Brown, esq. many years deputy of Limehouse Ward.
