 Henry Moetenzie.-lt will be seen bY an annexed paragraph, from an English paper of the date of January 18th. that Scotland, and the literary world in gen eral, have recently sustained loss which cannot soon be repaired. HENRY Mac KENzIE IS NO MORE. To those, howev- CT, who can estimate virtue. honor. and genius, and amiability and kindness, in all the relations of social life-to all whom his writings alike instructed, edi- fled, and delighted, it will be source of melancholy pleasure fiat l.e died t.the fulness of his fame, honored by the af feetionate reverence of his contempo- raries, and dying, if we may be allowed the term, in the ripeness of a green old age.

 Henry Mackenzie, perhaps, formed l the last link between the Scottish litera- ture of the present century, and tue age adorned by the names and he works of Hume. Robertson, and Adam Smith. h association with the names of these il- lustrious writers, that of his will descend to prosperity. He will be bonorcd as the author of the .":Man of FeeliDg," and not the less so, on account of having been designated by the greatest living writer of the present age, in his. dedication of Wayerly y to him, whose merits this feeble pen is endeasorlng to commemorate, as s'the Scottish ADDISON.

 Never was a compliment more honor ably and beautifully applied, and by no one could it be more or better merited.

 Kindred genius associates the homage due to the memory of the dead with the respect which We voluntarily pay to the illustrious living.

 HENRY MACKENZIE. Esq.--We re- gret 10 announce the death of this en- inent literary character ard venerable citizen, so we'll know as the author of ..I'he Man of Feeling,' and many other productions. Mr. MACKENZIE had been confined almost to lis room for a eonsid- erable time past by the general decay attending old age, and expired, we un- derstand, on the evening of Friday last. There will, no doubt, in time come from his friends biographical account of so distinguishing and excellent man; and although t might not be proper to enter into detail at present, we cannot, but with feelings of regret, notice the depar- ture ofalmost the last of that eminent class of literary men. who, above fifty years ago, cast such a lustre on our city. They were succeeded, indeed, by a more stern and probably more philosophical class of writers, as displayed in the pa pers of the Endinburgh Review, and similar productions; but in that delicate perception of human cbaracterand hu- man manners, so correctly--so elegant ly-and often so humorously delineated in the numbers of the ssAiirror'' ard ssounger,' where Mir. 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 distin- guished. The elegant society in Edin- burgh, we'll know in former days by the name of the sSMirror Club" consisted, besides Mir. Mackenzie, of several gen tlemen, who were afterwards judges ill the Court of Session, viz. Lord Banna- tyne, Lord Cullen, Lord Abercromby, Lord Craig, and also Mir. George Home, and Mr. George Ogilvie. The first, now Sir William Bannatyne, venerable and most accomplished gentleman of the old school, is the only survivor. Mir. Mackenzie was in the S6th year, having been born in l745. His eldest son is Lord Mackenzie, at present an eminent judge in the Courts of Session and Jus ticiary. .--Edinb,ugh Epening Courant.
