SINCLAIR, Sir JOHN, Bart. LL.D. M.P. and President of the Board of Agriculture. He is the son of the Laird of Ullster, by Lady Jane Sutherland, and was born at the family seat in 1754. He was educated at the high school, Edinburgh, and removed from thence, first to the University of Glasgow, and next to Oxford. On his return to Scotland, he became a member of the Society of Advocates, but never followed the law as a profession. He entered into Parliament at an early age, and was for some time attached to the late Mr. Pitt, but he afterwards joined the opposition; though it is observable that he was adverse to the abolition of the slave trade. Sir John Sinclair has been very assiduous in the improvement of agriculture, and it is, in a great mea sure, owing to his exertions, that the board was established at which he presides. On the utility of such an institution, however, there are different opinions; and it would be very difficult, we believe, for its warmest admirers to state any practical benefit which has resulted from it commensurate with the expense with which it has been attended. Previous to the appointment of Sir John to that chair, he established a society at Edinburgh for the improvement of British wool. During the late war he raised two battalions called the Rothsay and Caithness fencibles, of both of which he acted as colonel. He was created a baronet in 1786, and his hostility to Mr. Pitt has been attributed to the refusal of that statesman to create him a peer. His works are,

He also performed in the plays which were acted at that seminary, and came off with great applause, particularly in the character of Hamlet. In 1802, he produced, at Covent Garden, a comedy called the "Word of Honor," which was well received, and the author was in consequence encouraged to bring forward some more pieces, but none have been printed except the songs
