André, an eminent antiquary, was born at Berne, in Switzerland, on the 9th of June 1646. He turned his attention early to the study of numismatics, and in 1680 he went to Paris, where his reputation procured him admission into the society of the learned, and where, in 1683, he published *Specimen Unicurse Rei Nummariae Antiquae*, a second edition of which, corrected and enlarged, appeared at Leipzig in 1695. The encouragement which was originally held out to him in Paris was not confirmed; and after being imprisoned for three years in the Bastille for the heinous offence of claiming the remuneration promised him as joint-keeper of the Royal Cabinet of Medals, he went to Germany in 1694, on the invitation of Count de Schwartzenburg-Arnstadt. Here he prosecuted the preparation of a great work on numismatics, but his labours were closed by death in 1703. Havercamp having collected and arranged his scattered materials, published, in 1734, *Thesaurus Morellianus, sive Familiarum Romanarum Numismata Omnia*, in 2 vols. folio; and, in conjunction with Schlegel and Gori, published in 1752, from Morell's MS., the *Thesauri Morellianae Numismata Aurea, Argenteca Ærea, cujusque modi xii. priorum Imperatorum*, Amsterdam, in 3 vols. folio.

Thomas, an eminent classical scholar and editor, was born at Eton, in Buckinghamshire, on the 18th of March 1703. Having graduated at King's College, Cambridge, he was appointed curate of Kew in 1731, and for some time officiated in the same capacity at Twickenham. In 1737 he was made rector of Buckland; and in 1775 we find him acting as chaplain to the garrison at Portsmouth. He died on the 19th of February 1784. His principal works are,—*A Collection of Theological Poems, original, and translated from the Latin of Vida*, with notes, London, 1732-36, in 8vo; an edition of Chaucer's *Canterbury Tales*, with modern imitations, London, 1737; an edition of the works of Spenser, 1747; the *Hecuba, Orestes, Phoenissae*, and *Alcestes* of Euripides, with ancient scholia and notes, London, 1748; an English translation of the *Hecuba*, with annotations; the *Prometheus of Eschylus*, with scholia, notes, and an English translation in blank verse, 1767; *Two Letters on Greek Inscriptions found upon an altar at Corbridge in Northumberland*; editions of the *Greek Lexicon* of Hederick, and of the *Latin Dictionary* of Ainsworth; *Thesaurus Graeco Poëticus, sive Lexicon Graeco-Proseodicum*, Eton, 1762, in 4to, an imitation of the *Gradus ad Parnassum*, since considerably enlarged by Dr Malthy, Cambridge, 1815; and various other works, particularly *Annotations on Locke's Essay*, 1793, 8vo.
