YOUNG, ARTHUR (1741-1820).--Writer on agriculture, was _b._ in London, the _s._ of a Suffolk clergyman. In his early years he farmed, making many experiments, which though they did not bring him financial success, gave him knowledge and experience, afterwards turned to useful account. Various publications had made his name known, and in 1777 he became agent to Lord Kingsborough on his Irish estates. In 1780 he _pub._ his _Tour in Ireland_, and four years later started the _Annals of Agriculture_, 47 vols. of which appeared. His famous tours in France were made 1787-90, the results of his observations being _pub._ in _Travels in France_ (1792). He was in 1793 appointed sec. to the newly founded Board of Agriculture, and _pub._ many additional works on the subject. He is justly regarded as the father of modern agriculture, in which, as in all subjects affecting the public welfare, he maintained an active interest until his death. In his later years he was blind.

YOUNG, EDWARD (1683-1765).--Poet, _s._ of the Rector of Upham, Hampshire, where he was _b._ After being at Winchester School and Oxf. he accompanied the Duke of Wharton to Ireland. Y., who had always a keen eye towards preferment, and the cult of those who had the dispensing of it, began his poetical career in 1713 with _An Epistle to Lord Lansdowne_. Equally characteristic was the publication in the same year of two poems, _The Last Day_ and _The Force of Religion_. The following year he produced an elegy _On the Death of Queen Anne_, which brought him into notice. Turning next to the drama he produced _Busiris_ in 1719, and _The Revenge_ in 1721. His next work was a collection of 7 satires, _The Love of Fame, the Universal Passion_. In 1727 he entered the Church, and was appointed one of the Royal Chaplains, and Rector of Welwyn, Herts, in 1730. Next year he _m._ Lady Elizabeth Lee, the widowed _dau._ of the Earl of Lichfield, to whom, as well as to her _dau._ by her former marriage, he was warmly attached. Both _d._, and sad and lonely the poet began his masterpiece, _The Complaint, or Night Thoughts_ (1742-44), which had immediate and great popularity, and which still maintains its place as a classic. In 1753 he brought out his last drama, _The Brothers_, and in 1761 he received his last piece of preferment, that of Clerk to the Closet to the Princess Dowager of Wales. Four years later, in 1765, he _d._ The poems of Y., though in style artificial and sometimes forced, abound in passages of passion and power which sometimes reach the sublime. But the feelings and sentiments which he expresses with so much force as a poet form an unpleasantly harsh contrast with the worldliness and tuft-hunting of his life.
