ISAAC TAYLOR. Dec. 11. Suddenly, the Rev. Isaac Tay lor, of Ongar in Essex, for many years Minister of the dissenting congregation in that town, aud author of several highly useful juvenile works. He Mr. Taylor was brought up to the art of engraving. His engagements as an artist being such as allowed him to reside at a distance from London, he left the metropolis in 1786, and gladly availed himself of the liberty of choosing an abode where the same means would procure for an increasing family a larger amount of comfort. fixed his abode at Lavenham in Suffolk, where he remained until 1796, when, in compliance with the wishes of a dissenting congregation at Colchester he removed to that town, in order to assume the pastoral care of the society assembling in the meeting-house in Bucklersbury-lane. This charge he retained until the close of 1810, and then resigned; but about the same time in the following year accepted the invitation of the dissenting congregation at Ongar, to become their pastor. In the line of his original profession, Mr. Taylor produced a set of prints to illustrate the Bible, from designs by his son; in his ministerial capacity he published 66 The Glory of Zion, a Sermon, preached at the Baptist Western Association, in Gloucester, 1808," 8vo. and, of his very excellent juvenile works, the following were the principal: "Self Cultivation recommended; or, hints to a youth leaving school." "The Child's Birthday, aiming to state the nature and importance of that season." "Twelve Addresses to a School, with an original Hymn to each.” "Scenes in Europe, for the amusement and instruction of little tarry-at-home travellers." Of this charming work an impression of 3000 copies was disposed of in about nine months after its first publication in 1818, and several editions have since been sold; it was followed by "Scenes in Asia," "Scenes in Africa,' "Scenes in America," "Scenes in England," and "Scenes of British Wealth, in produce, manufactures, and commerce,' all likewise for the instruction and amusement of little tarry-at-home travellers." "Beginnings of Biography, being the lives of one hundred persons eminent in British story,' two volumes, 1824. "Beginnings of European Biography," in three volumes, respectively comprising, the Early Ages, the Middle Ages, and the Latter Ages. Mr. Taylor married a sister of the Rev. James Hinton of Oxford; and had a family of one son and two daughters. The mother and daughters have all conferred great 1830.] OBITUARY-Mr. J. Haynes. benefits on the rising generation by their literary productions, and it appears to have been the "Original Poems for Infant Minds, by Jane and Anne Taylor," that first led the way of the family's successful career in this peculiar line of authorship. Jane died in 1822, and two volumes of her "Memoirs and Poetical Remains, with extracts from her Correspondence," were soon after published by her brother, Mr. Isaac Taylor. Anne is the wife of the Rev. Joseph Gilbert. MR. JOSEPH HAYNES. Dec. 14. At Chester, in his 69th year, Mr. Joseph Haynes, Drawing Master. He was a native of Shrewsbury, and having, as his friends conceived, a genius for the arts, he was placed under Mr. J. H. Mortimer, the celebrated painter. On the death of his master, in 1779, he continued some time with the widow, and etched many plates from Mortimer's pictures and sketches; the most admired was St. Paul preaching to the Britons, but many other subjects had much merit. He was noticed by Sir Joshua Reynolds, who permitted him to copy several of his pictures. He afterwards went, an adventurer in the arts, to Jamaica, but always regretted the time he spent there, as it neither contributed to his farme nor emolument. On his return to Shrewsbury, he was employed by several gentlemen to make drawings of local subjects, and in 1794 he etched and coloured a plate of the Roman tesselated floor or pavement, discovered at the Lee, near Shrewsbury, a very accurate representation, which he published. He soon after removed to Chester, and commenced teaching drawing, which he continued to do till nearly the time of his death. He was modest and unassuming in his manners, and much respected. DEATHS.
