CATHERINE, author of a History of England, was the daughter of John Sawbridge, Esq. of Olantigh, Kentshire, and was born there in 1733. In 1760 she was married to Dr George Macaulay, a physician in London. Her principal work, entitled The History of England from the Accession of James I. to that of the Brunswick Line, began to be published in 1763, and was completed in eight volumes.

Meantime the husband of Mrs Macaulay had died; and in 1778 she became the wife of a young clergyman of the name of Graham. A favourer of republican opinions, she had carried on a correspondence with General Washington, and in 1785 she paid him a visit in America. She died in 1791. Besides her History, Mrs Macaulay wrote Remarks on Hobbes' Rudiments of Government and Society, 8vo, 1767, republished, with additions, 4to, London, 1769; Reply to Mr Burke's Pamphlet entitled Thoughts on the Causes of the Present Discontent, 8vo, London, 1770; A Modest Plea for the Property of Copyright, 8vo, London, 1774; Address to the People of England, Scotland, and Ireland, on the present Important Crisis of Affairs, 8vo, Bath, 1775; Treatise on the Immutability of Moral Truth, 8vo, London, 1783.—republished, with additions, under the title, Letters on Education, 4to, London, 1790; and Observations on the
