air as might become a man who had travelled, and mixed in the best society. He had always a reserve of pleasantry, and a flow of ready mirth; but he lacked the effervescence of Lewis. In the procession on Shakspeare's birth-day, instituted by Garrick, and restored with zeal by Elliston, he personated Sir John Falstaff, and gave some snatches of that rich, out-breaking, unctuous laugh, which formed so essential a point of his success in the original. As a manager, his intrinsic knowledge of the stage, and his taste in theatrical matters, which was enlarged by some literary acquirements, afforded him advantages which few managers possess. Behind the curtain he was rigid, and perhaps dictatorial; but he always carried himself with the politeness of a courtier-except when an occasional flash of temper suffered him to forget his interests and his station. Mr. Elliston became a widower March 31, 1821. He has left several sons. His funeral took place on the 15th of July, at St. John's Church, Waterloo Road.
