VACANCIES IN THE ORDER OF THE THISTLE.—There
are no fewer than three ribbons of the " most ancient
Order of the Thistle" vacant at the present time. These
vacancies have been created by the successive deaths of
the Marquis of Huntly, Earl Brooke, and Lord Saltoun,
all within a brief interval. It is understood that the Earl
of Haddington has already received the ribbon of the
late Lord Huntly, and it is rumoured that the two other
ribbons will be conferred on the Dukes of Argyll and
Hamilton respectively. The probability, therefore,
seems to be that the new knights, when duly nominated
by her Majesty, will be installed at the same time. We
would in these circumstances humbly suggest a revival
of the ancient custom of performing the august ceremony
in the Palace of Holyrood. Why not ? We need hardly
mention that the Knights of St. Patrick are invariably
installed in the Irish metropolis. Why, then, should the
knights of our most ancient Scottish order not be in-
stalled in the capital of Scotland ? Such an act on the
part of the Sovereign would be hailed with gratitude, as
one of the most gracious and gratifying which could be
conferred upon the nation.---Edinburgh Evening Post.
WHITING v. WATSON.—In our report of this case, by
the omission jof the word " not," the learned Secondary,
Mr. Potter, was represented as saying that a post-office
order was a legal tender, whereas he held that it was
not.

FRIENDLY SOCIETIES.—In virtue of an act passed at
the close of the last session, friendly societies may now
invest their funds otherwise than required by the
Friendly Societies Act. Societies availing themselves
of this act are not to invest any further portions of their
funds with the National Debt Commissioners. Societies
not having an account with the commissioners after the
passing of the act are not to invest their funds with the
commissioners.
