He was known to the world as a lively, popular, and elegant writer, as the reputation of the various works he published, from 1779 to within two years of his death, sufficiently evince, and by which he gained both wealth and reputation. His publications, in order of time, were as follow, viz. 1. A View of Society and Manners in France, Italy, Switzerland, and Germany, 2 vols, Sve. 1779. 2. Medical Sketches, 1 vol. 8vo. 1785. 3.

He was a native of Scotland, and a Roman catholic clergyman. He published, during a long literary life, several smaller pieces, for the most part written with a levity ill becoming the sacredness of his function, and not worthy of enumeration here: but, in in the year 1786, he published the prospectus of a new translation of the Bible, 4to.; and the year following a Letter to the bishop of London, on the same subject: both were drawn up with a sufficiency of learning, and a considerable degree of judgment; the consequence of which was, that the subscription for his proposed version rapidly filled up, and was supported with a becoming liberality by the clergy of the established church; but when the translation of the first six books of the Old Testament came out in 1792, there was discovered a miserable falling off from all that he had so eloquently and confidently promised. It is not our province here to give a criticism of what in itself is below all criticism, but barely to state, that the good of every sect of Christianity were shocked at its manifest tendency to do away the belief in the divine inspiration which dictated the holy scriptures; and even the enemies of revealed religion were shocked at its disingenuity, and disgusted at its colloquial vulgarity. The second volume appeared in 1797, with no better success. His own superiors had long interdicted him from the exercise of his functions as a priest, and now passed the heaviest censures upon him for his heterodoxy.
