is again demanded for all kinds of Grain, the factors are very
firm, as they have not much to sell, but the buyers in general

HENRY MACKENZIE, ESQ.—We regret to
announce the death of this eminent literary character, and
venerable citizen, so well known as the author of The
Man of Feeling, and many other productions. Mr.
MACKENZIE had been confined almost to his room for a
considerable
.time past by the general decay attending old
age, and expired, we understand, on the evening of Friday
inst. There will no doubt in time come from his friends a
biographical account of so distinguished and excellent a
man ,• and although it might not be proper to enter into
detail at present, we cannot, but with feelings of regret,
notice the departure of almost the last of that eminent
class of literary men, who, above 50 years ago, cast
such a lustre on our- city. They were succeeded,
indeed, by a more stern, and probably more philo-
sophical class of writers, as displayed in the papers of the
_Edinburgh Revitie, and similar productions; but in that
delicate perception of human character and human man-
ners, so correctly—so elegantly—and often so humorously
delineated in the numbers of the Mirror and Lounger,
where Mr. MACKENZIE was the chief contributor, as well
as in his other works, and in his general views of the
great principles of moral conduct, there have been few
authors more distinguished. The elegant society in Edin-
bnrgh, well known in former days by the name of the
s' Mirror Club," consisted, besides 1"r. MACKENZIE, of
several gentlemen, who were afterwards Judges in the
Court of Session, viz.—Lord BAN NATVNE, Lord CULLLN,
Lord ABEitcaomny, Lord CRAIG, and also Mr. GEORGE
Hone, and Mr. GEORGE OcaLetE. The first, now Sir
WILLIAM BaNNATY NE, a venerable and most accomplished
gentleman of the old school, is the only survivor. M-.
MACKENZIE was in his 86th year, having been born in
1745. His eldest son is Lord MACKENZIE, at present an
eminent Judge in the Courts of Session and Justiciary.—
