The town of Annan, witlitn the last half century, has produced a host of distinguished men in various departments of literature and science, which may be put in competition with any other district of Sc otland. To illustrate this; remark, we need only refer to the Rev. Edward Irving of London, one of the most reatarhakie men of the present day. It would be altogether need less to advert more particularly to the character of a man who, for the last ten years has occupied so prominent a place In public opt :doe. We are aware that public opinion h, in some measure. divided respecting his merits. No man, however, we believe, will question his extraordinary talents, or zealous and conscientious per formance of the duties of his sacred office. We may add, however, what may not be en generally known to our readers, that he is not less distinguished iwprtvare for the benevolence of his disposition.• the ardour and sincerity of his friendship; and the independence of his principles, than for the splendour of his public appearances; and it gives us great pleasure to have an opportunity of stating that he is regarded with the most devoted respect in his native town. When his arrival Is 'expected, the streets are crowded, and the coach literally beset by the admiring crowd. The celebrated and unfortunate traveller Clappertoo, to also a native of Apnea. His memory is still cherished by his friends; and many of his early friends yet delight in recordin; those exploits which gave Windom of that energy and courage for which his future cha racter was distinguished. Dr. Dickson also, one of his early friends, who accompanied him on his last, unfortunate expedition, and who. we regret to say, has too probably shared his fate, was also a native of Aswan. He was a man of high talent, great accom plishments, and of a high and adventurous disposition. His attain. mints in science eminently qualified him for such an enterprise, though It is a matter of deep regret that eo much talent and so much worth should be sacrificed in effecting a discovery which, under existing circumstances, is hardly possible...-Annan can also beast of having given birth to Nichol, the friend of Burns, a man of genies, and a pest distinguished not more for his talents than for his convivial propensities. He was educated under a Mr. Irvine of Annan, a blind man, and one of the greatest scholars of his time. He loft an epitaph, we understand, in which be records his attainments as a scholar with more esergy, perhaps. than mo desty, and asserts that his acquaintance with Horace, was, at lesst, equal to that of any man of his age. It reflects little honour upon his pupae that no monument has yet been erected to receive so remediable an inscription. Nichol is one of the trio men. timed In Burn's celebrated song. " Willis brewed a peck o' mans, and Rab and Allan cam to see,' which see, by the way. we con tend ought to have been pros g and we once lost a bottle of wine by asserting that it was so. We cannot say so mush for Mr. Nichol's character as his talents. He was terrible for his severity as a schoolmaster : even is as age when flagellation was reckoned indispensable, he held a meet disgusting pre dominance. Annan also gave birth, we believe—certainly ens ployment.—to the celebrated Dr. Henry, theitistorlan of Great Bri. tans, who occupied for many years the placed parish schoolmaster of Ammo, a situation equal in importance—lf utility be regarded as the standard-4.0 any wbick be ever held. It is worth stating that he paid his addicted to a relation of the celebrated Mr. Irving's , but from the respectability of the young lady's connections, prospects at demount were so hopeless, that they interfered to prevent it. We bad almost forgot the celebrated poet. the ands. Me Dr. Blacklock. After struggling with many a difficulty, be was appointed to the pastoral charge of the parish of Kirdastibright, a situation which he was obliged, from his blindned and the clamours of the people, to relinquish. He retained an annuity, however, and spent she latter period of his life in Edinburgh. He was the first literary man who possessed saffeieet penetration to discern the genius of Burns, and bad the merit of rescuing bins at once from obscurity and the hazard if a self-,lnflicted banishment. He eitherwrote some papers in the " !Odor," pointing out the beauties of the poems, or suggested it to the " Alma of Familag."— Irrom that moment Burns was admired Among all the classes of oar countrymen. Ammo, we have thus seeny was celebrated during 'the last century ; and from the high character of its Academy tM learning sod talent el its teachers, it will be still more so during the present one.
