Some time since he circulated proposals for "Memoirs of Public Charities; or an Historical Illustration of the Charitable Institutions in and about the Cities of London and Westminster, with Anecdotes of their Founders and most active Supporters:" but this design we believe has never been completed, which is rather to be lamented, as such a work properly executed could not fail of proving highly useful.

The Arithmetical Preceptor, 12mo. 181. YOUNG, ARTHUR, Esq. F.R.S. and secretary to the board of agriculture. He was born at Bradfield Hall, in Suffolk, the paternal estate consisting of about two hundred acres of land, on which the family have resided above two centuries. The subject of the present article was a younger son, and being intended for trade, was apprenticed to a wine merchant, his commercial pursuits were changed for at Lynn. About the year 1761, however, those of agriculture, being called to the management of the farm at Bradfield. Here he experienced many losses and disappointments owing to his inexperience and propensity to new theories and projects: the event of which was a temporary removal from the estate. He now took a farm in Hertfordshire near North Mimms, where he made numerous experiments, but after residing there about nine years he found his embarrassments increase, in consequence of which he returned to Bradfield Hall, and his mother dying soon after he came into full possession of the estate. He now commenced his career as an author, and an agricultural tourist, beginning with his travels in Ireland, which he completely surveyed in successive visits from 1776 to 1779. In 1784, he began his well known Anuals of Agriculture, a work which abounds with valuable information, on a vast variety of subjects connected with rural economy and topography. In 1787, Mr. Young made an excursion to France, in which journey he was accompanied by M. Lazowski, and the Duke de la Rochefoucault. He returned to that country in 1789, and completed his agricultural survey, of which he published an account. The intermediate space between this period and his appointment as secretary to the Board of Agriculture, was filled up by a variety of pursuits of practical utility; being either engaged upon his own farm, or in making observations and improvements in different parts of the kingdom. When Sir John Sinclair succeeded in prevailing on Mr. Pitt to establish the board, he had also interest enough to secure the nomination of Mr. Young to the place of secretary, with a salary of four hundred pounds a year, and this office he has held with credit ever since. Waiving all observations on the utility of such an institution itself, or of the general conduct of the board; it is but justice to say, that the secretary has been indefatigable in his exertions for the accomplishment of the views which constituted the ostensible grounds of this legislative measure. Mr. Young has personally made and published several surveys, and he has been the instrument of adopting many excellent regulations and improvements, particularly with respect to the breed and management of cattle. Yet it is somewhat extraordinary, that so zealous a friend to new discoveries should have uniformly, and rather pertinaciously, opposed the practice of the "drill husban dry," even after the importance and benefit of that mode of cultivation has been clearly ascertained. The publications of Mr. Young, without enumerating his various communications through the Annals of Agriculture, and other miscellaneous collections, are as follows: The Farmer's Letters to the People of England, 8vo. 1767, 2d edit. in 2 v. with this title, "The Farmer's Letters to the Landlords of Great Britain," 8vo. 1771. -A six weeks' Tour through the Southern Counties of England and Wales, 8vo. 1768; 2d edit. 1769.—On the Management of Hogs, 8vo. 1769.-The Expediency of a free Export of Corn, 8vo. 1769.-A six months' Tour through the North of England, 4 v. 8vo. 1770. -The Farmer's Guide in hiring and stocking farms, 1772.-Political Arithmetic, 8vo. 1774-Considera Cole-seed, for feeding Sheep and Cattle, 8vo.-The 2 v. 8vo. 1770.-Rural Economy, or Essays on the of Experimental Agriculture, 2 v. 4to. 1770.-The practical parts of Husbaudry, 8vo. 1770.-A Course Farmer's Tour through the East of England, 4 v. 8vo. 1771-Proposals to the Legislature for the numbering of the People, 8vo. 1771.-Observations on the Present State of the Waste Lands in Great Britain, 8vo. tions on the Means of Raising the Supplies within the year, 8vo. 1779.-Tour in Ireland, with general Observations on the Present State of that Kingdom, 4to. 1780.-Correspondence with Mr. Lofft on building county ships, 8vo. 1783.-An Essay on the culture of Question of Wool stated, 8vo. 1787.-A Speech that might have been spoken, 8vo. 1788.-Travels in France, 2 v. 4to. 1792-1791.-The Example of France a warning to Britain, 8vo. 1793.-An Idea of the present state of France, 8vo. 1795.-The Constitution Danger, and the means of Safety, 8vo. 1798.-Gene ral View of the Agriculture of the County of Suffolk, 8vo. 1797.-Enquiry into the State of the Public Miud among the Lower Classes, 8vo. 1798.-General View of the Agriculture of the County of Linstated, 8vo. 1800.-Letter to Mr. Wilberforce on the coln, 8vo. 1799.-The Question of Scarcity plainly state of the Public Mind among the Lower Classes, 8vo. 1799.-A Review of the corrected Agricultural Survey of Lincolnshire, 8vo. 1800.- An Inquiry into the Propriety of applying Wastes to the support of the Poor, 8vo. 1801.-The Farmer's Kalendar, 8vo. 1804. 8th edit. 1812.-Essay on Manures, 8vo. 1804.-General View of the Agriculture of Hertfordshire, 1804. -General View of the Agriculture of Norfolk, 8vo. 1805.-Survey of the Agriculture of Essex, 2 v. 8vo. 1806.-General View of the Agriculture of Oxfordshire, 8vo. 1808.-General Report on Inclosures, Svc. 1809.-Advantages which have resulted from the establishment of the Board of Agriculture, 8vo. 1809.— On the Husbandry of the three celebrated British Farmers, Bakewell, Arbuthnot, and Ducket, 8vo. 1811. safe without Reform, 8vo. 1795.-Invasion, National Inquiry into the progressive Value of Money as marked by the Price of Agricultural Products, 8vo.

Since the peace this reverend patriot has published a declaration in the newspapers, saying that he has purchased lands in the Crimea where no tax-gatherer is seen, and inviting his countrymen to emigrate with him to that blessed region.

On coming to London he became lecturer at the Royal Institution, but relinquished that situation when he obtained his appointment at the Hospital, to the duties of which he pays the most assiduous attention. Dr. Young has numerous papers in the Philosophical Transactions, besides which he has been an occasional correspondent in the Gentleman's Magazine, Nicholson's Journal and other periodical works. His distinct publications are these: De Corporis Humani Viribus Couservatricibus, 8vo.

In 1798 Mr. Pitt had an idea of appointing him to the mastership of Trinity, which design however was set aside in favor of the present Bishop of Bristol. But in 1805, the same minister gave him the second prebend in the Church of Durham, and the same year he took his degree of D.D. In 1808 the see of Carlisle was offered to Dr. ZOUCH, REV.

In 1760 he was elected into one of Lord Craven's scholarships, along with Mr. Joah Bates, celebrated afterwards for his skill in music. The year following Mr. Zouch took his degree of Bachelor of Arts, and was classed as the third Wrangler. Having been chosen fellow of his College in 1763, he was appointed assistant tutor, which office he discharged with extraordinary credit, though his assiduity so much impaired his health that he was obliged to quit the University: on which his College presented him in 1770 to the rectory of Wycliffe in the North Riding of Yorkshire. In this country retirement he continued many years, performing the office of a parish priest with great diligence, and augmenting his knowledge of natural history. His botanical excursions in a pleasant and romantic part of Yorkshire, contributed not a little to invigorate his constitution. By the death of his elder brother, the Rev. Henry Zouch, in 1795, he succeeded to an estate at Sandal, where he now resides.
