a nephew of both the foregoing, was born at Berne, Sept. 23, 1766. After studying at G ttingen, he was appointed professor of belles lettres in the high school of his native city in 1792, and during the stormy times that followed the French invasion (1798) he was a bulwark against the unhappy influences resulting in civil and religious life. He retired to privacy in 1804, and died after a long illness, March 27, 1840. Besides contributions to journalistic literature, he wrote a number of works on religion, philosophy, and morals, and some of a historical and geographical character, which are all enumerated in Herzog, Real-Encyklop. s.v.
