Gentlemen, . July t 6, Att.
I write this as a convincing proof of the efficacy of your
Macassar,,Oil.• . For near three years my head -was quite
.bald, the hair came after my illness; during that time
tried •sveral• advertised preparations to no purpose. Your
Oil being in high estimation an this place, induced me to try
it, and in a snort time my hair was wo{idertully recoverelt,
and I have the pleasure :o assert, the Oil contains those
virtues yOu express in your- Bills and Essay : in short my
hair never was so can't°, table, is tree from dandrilf, feels ex-
treinely. pleasant, possesses a strong curl, and is extremely
thick. . 1 shall make it my study to recommend it, and you
have my free will to-publish this note,'
Your obedient humble servant,

• Lord Minto took him to India in 1802, where he
acquired almost immediately the mastery of the po.
pular eastern languages. SO miraculous seemed this
celerity of acquisition to his Noble Patron, that he'
observed, on a public occasion, t‘ the-rapid -attain-
ments of Lev:len appeared more like the gift of hea-
ven in languages; ;than the ordinary stroggles of
mart!'" There is-perhaps no individual .now alive-
possessing the likeribilities, joined to the tiepth of
research among the sacred books, and pop ulat wadi_
tions of the Bramit-is; This knowledge, .we regret to
say, has all perished with him.
No society ever robbed him of his native Scottish
bluntness and-sincerity. His simplicity and purity,
and fit to independence of heart accompanied Mtn
to'the lest. It rmry be truly observed of him, what.
Buinsjustly i;aid of himself, suclt WS Leyden, that
"; the sterlingot his honest worth poverty could not
debaSe, and his independent British spirit oppression
might bend, but could not subdue."
Tedhe eminent poet Walter Scott Leyden was
well known, and the Doctor assisted him in his fist
popular Work,. " The Minstrelsy of
.the Scottish
Border." The ballad of the " Mermaid," and the
"Ode'tb Flod_ten,"
.would 'adorn' any collection.—
So favoutable was Seott's °pita* of the pectic ge-
nius of Leyden, that the motto to ".Marmion" was
taken Iron-roue ofhis odes and he has quoted hire ,
frequently :as a poet of no common note.
The " Scenes of Itifatky": was the greatest of this
amiable poet's efforts, and in whiclv hisoat oral good-
ness of heari appears eminently
..consivcuous., - Into
description he has transmitted his o,%ri soul, and
lays happy hold on that of his readers. Though
possessed of a vigorous mind, and a strong ^
nation, neither. overflowed the _channel of strictly .
chaste composition. Though eminently qua;ifit,d
for writing, so discreet a us' did he make of it,
that he nevur loSt a friend, nor created an enemy,
by its indulgence. He knew. how to lash the tail
ings of the present age, without becoming Personal.
So puri.twa:t his mind that we are , not afraid of
being censured, When we say he never wrote a hoe
but what might s:.-.rye: for a motto to the Temple of
Diana. Sul;h was. the poet whose .cuss we.
lament.

SOLE% vLIIS UICIN6 FAi.SUM ALUSEAT?

L 0 N D ON,

FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1812.

We this morning received American Papers, from
which we have made the following i.ntdresting ex-

tracts

NEW Yorut, Nov. 4.—The Hornet has nor yet
gone.—lnstead of the dispatches which were to
have come on board yesterday, an order was received
for the detention of the Hornet till further orders.—
We hope the knotty points will be got over.
The report in yesterday's Gazette of a Treaty
being about to be sent out in the Hornet, would have
come nearer our meaning if we had made use of
the word arrangement, for it is an arrange-
ment between Mr. MONROE and Mr. FOSTER, rela-
tive to the mutual repealing of the Orders in Council
and Non-Importation AEt, which, we understand, is
to go out in the Hornet. This vessel, we have reason
to believe, will sail in the course of the week ; but
such his been the etlect of the Report of the Com-
mittee of Foreign Relations on Ministerial men at
Washington, that a pause has ensued !
A letter from Washington says, the Administra •
tion have come to a determination of formally re-
cognising the independence of South America.'

SAVANNAH, NOV. t6.—Within the last ,three or
four da3 s, some serious disturbances have taken
place between the American seamen, and the crews
of the French pticateers La Vengeance and L'Agile
(cr Ltl Froncaiss), which had been lying in this

port -or so:re time past.
On Wednesday night last a. quarrel originated at
n house on the upper part of the city, between some
seamen and a party of the privateer's men. • A ren-
counter ensued, in which three American sailors
were stabbed, and their opponents much bruised by
bindgons. The three wounded seamen, we under-
Elano, are since dead. One of then, belonging to
the brig Henry, Capt. FOUNTAIN, from Philadelphia,
'lamed T,I, lot. Ile names of the others, or of the
vessels to which they belonged, could nut be ascer-
tained.

The seamen, yesterday, became so exasperated,
that they determines on being avenged by destro,
ing- the privateers. They accordingly embodied
themselves last evening, and before the civil or mi-
litary authority had the knowledge or opportunity of
iot,:lremig in the transaction, set fire to L'Agile,
and burn her to the water's edge.
La Vengeance was then taken possession of by a
detacilinew ut the Savannah Volunteer Guards, con-
veyrd to the upper part of the town ; and remained
in their custody until between eleven and twelve at
night, when the seamen procured a lighter-boat,
and parcel of tar and other combustibles, which
were put into the boat, towed towards the vessel,
and obliged the guard to abandon her fur their own
safety, as well as to avoid the painful task of tir-
ing on ;heir fellow-citizens. The fire soon com-
municated, and La Vengeance shared the same (ate
as the L',(lgile.

Previous to the asqemblage of the seamen yester-
day, several of the crews of the privateers had con-
cealed theniselves i❑ a vacant store on ANctAux'S
wharf, where it seems they had some arms and am-
munition deposited. On the seamen attempting to
get on board the privateer, they were fired upon from
the upper %. indows of she store. Copt. MILLER of
the Champlin (New-Yolk packet) was dangerously
wounded, having one of his eyes shot out, the other
much injured, the budge of his nose broken, and
his life doubtful ; a seaman wounded (since dead),
and a coloured per,on (vi'ounded) Were shot nearly
at the same time and in like manner.

o,ie of the privateers' crew was killed on the
bluff yesterday, in the affray ; and another died in
gaol last night of his wounds. Several others, on
both sides, are wounded, but we understand not
dangerously. Upwards of one hunched of the rioters
are now in gaol.
