dence against him being an emissary of governtnent , and the only foundation of the charge being his connexion with the " Constitutional Society , established for
the diffusion of political information . But though . his life was saved , hrs circumstances were altered by political persecution , and he owed his enjoyment of a competence to the generous bequest of a geatleman who had been one of his counsel on

The Late Mrs. Kenrjck, Of West Bromwicb,...
The late Mrs . Kenrjck , of West Bromwicb , whose decease was brie 8 y noticed in the last number of the Repository , [ p . 66 % ] possessed qualities of mind and heart , which , especially as displayed amidst the accumulated infirmities of
declining life , deserve to be recorded both as a tribute of filial gratitude and affection , and as a proof of the power of religious principle . It would be impossible to delineate a more faithful or impressive portrait of her character , than has been already drawn bj > one who knew her well ,
and who had possessed the best opportunities of observing : with how much good sense , affection and conscientious regard to jluty , she discharged the most important offices of life . The following extract from a discourse deiivered to the New-Meeting Society , Birmingham , by the Rev * John
Kentish , will recall to the min < ls of those who knew her , the virtues which they ovedj and afford to others an instructive and consolatory example of the peace and joy which . are the fruit of Christian hope , supported by habitual piety , and the remembrance of a well-spent life .
u The truly excellent person for whom we mourn , but whose removal from our world we regret only on account of ourselves , was a proof of the force of highly respectable mental endowments combined with an enlightened and consistent profession of Christianity . From the
begitiing of her long , happy and honourable life , Providence fixed her in circumstances singularly favourable j she derived so conviiMMi advantages fvaui her family connexion * , and she fully manifested a disposition and a capacity to improve her privileges . Her sphere of action was
naturally domestic life ; yet she may be said to have oce « pie < i for a considerable time a situation socnevvhatt more public than is usually the lot of individuals of her & ex ftiwi condition in society . It was a
( situation in which her admir & ble H ° w » euse , virtues , awd manwerst , r-e * Kk * rt ? d her greatly estiu & abte and usrefyfl * j beKeve tktot tlfere arc those i * , ih * s * budiejftee who can atte £ r * s well as Uty ^ elf , ihe * duv >& t material care she bestowed oa many young
