      connexions , and from his subsequent intimacy with the venerable Bishop L « aw , his son the Bishop of Elphin , and Archdeacon Paley , as well as with several eminent Dissenting Ministers , ( Dr . Henry , the historian , then minister at Carlisle , Messrs . Robinson and Miln his

      successors , Mr . LowtMon , of Newcastle , &c ., ) it may be presumed that he was always disposed to apply his talents and learning to the study of the Holy Seriptures under the influence of an enlarged and liberal spirit ; in the prosecution of which he

      was led to a full conviction of the Unity and Absolute Supremacy of the One God , the Father of the Lord Je « us Christ , and to an humble dependence for the hope of eternal IHfe only on the mission , ministry , death and resurrection of Christ . In

      other words , he firmly believed in the appeal of Christ himself to his Father , that ** this is life eternal , to know the one only living arid true God , and Jesus Christ whom he hath sent ; " while to others there might be gods many and lords many , to him there was but one God , and one Mediator between God and men .

      the man Christ Jesus . Being obliged , for many years , in consequence of commercial engagements in which he was involved by friendship for several near connexions , to reside a good deal at Newcastle , he was an attentive and regular hearer at the Chapel in Hanover Square there .

      Master , it was his desire to go about doing good ; and those who came before him as objects of kind assistance , he was always reluctant to reject . Few , perhaps none , probaebly not himself , knew to what extent he assisted his friends , and bore disappointments and heavy losses with more than common patience . Of his charitable distributions he was never

      ostentatious : but when he thought that any good purpose might be served by it , he was not averse to his name appearing . When he sent his second benefaction of < £ 50 each to the Unitarian Fund , and to the York College , he wrote to the friend

      wfiom he entployed to transmit it , " You know how inttch I af ) hpr ostentation ; but on this occasion 1 do not bid you conceal my name . I am not ashamed to confess before men , that after the way which they call hereby , £ o worship I the God of my f&Kei $ .
