Sir Alex. , who was a great Tory and had an unfortu- nate talent for lampooning, wrote very much in those journals, and is supposed to have contributed, when in London last year, very largely to John Bull.

He had libelled so many people that, after the late detection, he could not possibly escape a duel. Lord Archibald Hamilton and Lord Duncan, who had been much calumniated in the Scotch papers, had determined to challenge him ; and Lord Duncan was actually on his way to Scotland for the purpose.
