THE EARL OF MORAY, K.T. Jan. 12. At Darnaway Castle, Elginshire, in his 77th year, of influenza, the Right Hon. Francis Stuart, tenth Earl of Moray (1561-2), Lord Doune, of Doune in Menteith (1581), and Lord of St. Colme (1611), in the peerage of Scotland; third Baron Stuart of Castle Stuart, in the peerage of Great Britain (1796), K.T., and Lord Lieutenant of Elginshire.

His Lordship was born at Edinburgh, Feb. 2, 1771, the third but eldest surviving son of Francis the ninth Earl, by the Hon. Jane Gray, eldest daughter of John twelfth Lord Gray. He was a twin with the late Hon. Archibald Stuart, who died in 1832. In his youthful days, during the early part of the war with France, he raised an independent company of foot, which was disbanded in Jan. 1791.

He succeeded his father in the peerage, Aug. 28, 1810. In 1827 he was nominated a Knight of the Thistle.

His Lordship was twice married: first, Jan. 26, 1795, to Lucy, second daughter of General John Scott, M.P. of Balcomie, co. Fife, and sister to the Duchess of Portland and the late Viscountess Canning; and that lady having died in 1798, secondly, Jan. 7, 1801, to his cousin Margaret-Jane, second daughter of Sir Philip Ainslie, Knt. of Pilton, co. Edinburgh, by the Hon. Elizabeth Gray. He became the second time a widower in 1837.

By his first marriage the Earl of Moray had issue two sons, the Right Hon. Francis, now Earl of Moray; and Captain the Hon. John Stuart.

By his second marriage he had five sons and five daughters, viz. 3. Elizabeth, who died an infant; 4. Lady Jane, married in 1832, to the late Sir John Archibald Stuart, of Grandtully, Bart. and secondly, in 1839, to J. L. Pounden, esq. of Ross Grove, co. Wexford; 5. the Hon. James Stuart, who died in 1840, in his 17th year; 6. a son who died an infant in 1805; 7. Lady Margaret-Jane; 8. Lady AnneGrace; 9. the Hon. Archibald George Stuart; 10. Lady Louisa; 11. the Hon.

ADM. SIR GEORGE PARKER, K.C.B. Dec. 24. At his residence, Great Yarmouth, of influenza, aged 81, Sir George Parker, K.C.B., Admiral of the Red. GENT. MAG. VOL. XXIX.

On

He was the son of George Parker, esq. of Wexford, and nephew to the celebrated Sir Peter Parker, Bart. Admiral of the Fleet. He entered the Navy in 1776, and, previously to obtaining the rank of Lieutenant, served in the Bristol, Lowestoffe, and Diamond, in the West Indies. passing at Jamaica, March 13, 1782, he was appointed to the Nestor, and on that ship being sold at Jamaica on the peace that year, he returned home, and was unemployed until 1786, when he was appointed to the Wasp on the Downs station, cruising against smugglers. In 1788 he was appointed to the Phoenix, proceeded to the East Indies, and, being employed on the coast of Malabar to cooperate with the Bombay army, was present at the capture of Cannanore. He subsequently became first Lieutenant of the Phoenix, and served in her in that capacity when she captured the French frigate La Resolue, and was then sent to England with the Commodore's despatches. In those times captures of the enemy's ships were more frequent than first Lieutenants' promotions; and Lieut. Parker had to serve as first of the Crescent in the Channel, and he was at the capture of another French frigate, La Reunion, before he was made a Commander, in 1793.

On his promotion he was appointed to the Albacore, and from Nov. 1793, to April 6, 1795, commanded that vessel under Lord Duncan, on the Shields and Leith station, in the suppression of smuggling. He removed on promotion at the latter date to the Squirrel, and, under the same Commander-in-chief, served in the South Seas until Dec. 1796, when he was appointed Captain of the captured French frigate St. Margarita, on the Irish station, escorting convoys and East Indiamen to the Mediterranean, Leeward Islands, and Jamaica station, until the peace in 1802. From this period we do not find him in active service again until 1804, when he was appointed to the Argo, and proceeded to the blockading force off the Texel.

In the following year he succeeded to the command of the Stately, 64, in which he commanded a squadron, on important service, in the Baltic; where on the 22nd March, 1808, in company with the Nassau, another 64, he engaged the Danish 74gun ship Prince Christian Frederick, and destroyed her after she had run aground near the island of Zealand. The loss of this ship was deemed to have great effect in influencing English, Danish, Swedish, and 2 R
