Sept. 5. After a few days' illness, at his father's house in Edinburgh, Lieut. Matthew Miller, of the 51st Reg. (King's own Light Infantry) youngest son of Sir William Miller, Bart. Lord Glenlee, aged 24 years.

It has seldom fallen to our lot to record the death of a more promising officer than Mr Miller. In addition to a rich store of classical erudition, acquired in the course of his education, he had subsequently made himself master of the higher geometry, and of the more abstruse branches of mathematics, and he was deeply skilled in their practical application to the study of natural philosophy and the arts. He was a member of the Philosophical Society of Edinburgh, to which he addressed several valuable papers on various interesting subjects of scientific research and philosophical inquiry; and he had lately suggested, in an Essay on the Principles of Gunnery, some curious experiments which the Board of Ordnance directed to be made in elucidation of the laws of projectiles, and as tending to ascertain the circumstances affecting the course of spherical bodies passing through the atmosphere at various heights, with a view to the practical purpose of giving a more precise direction to round shot discharged from guns of different calibres.

Presenting a striking contrast to the conduct of too many subalterns in the army, who waste in idle dissipation the large portion of leisure time which their situation affords, it was in pursuits of this description that Mr Miller cultivated his highly gifted talents; at once reconciling to them a strict and regular observance of his regimental duties, and making them subservient to his advancement in the profession he had chosen, by a timely qualification for any rank he might ultimately hold in it.

In general society, he was always distinguished for his personal accomplishments and amiable manners; while by his more intimate acquaintance and friends, he was beloved and respected for the strict integrity of his moral and religious principles, for his varied and extensive acquirements, for the unassuming friendliness of his disposition, and a suavity of manner and soberness of judgment rarely to be observed in a man of his age.

His brother-officers feel that, by his premature death, they have lost a sincere and valuable friend. He will long live in their memory, and be cited as an encouraging example to the young men who shall hereafter join the 51st Regiment. And they trust that this assurance of the general respect and esteem in which he was held by the Corps, will be some alleviation of the heavy affliction which has fallen on his father and other surviving relations. -Corfu, 1st Oct.

1

attention in the House of Commons. He has published several pamphlets on those subjects; and to him the country is indebted for the original plan by which the resumption of cash payments by the Bank of England was effected without inconvenience or danger. Mr Ricardo had amassed considerable wealth on the Stock Exchange. He has left a widow, and a large and amiable family. His death will be much regretted as a public man, and still more by those who knew him in private.
