015 f
' now fixed that Mr. John S. Stewart is to be the Shellff ,
Stirling, in room of Sir Reginald Seton Macdonald, deceased
Mr. Stewart has now acted as a Depute-Advocate for nearly
eight years, under successive Liberal Administrations;
ta__„l
from his high professional character, his appointment
Tat
give great satisfaction to the county. We understand 11:at
that Mr. Ivory has resigned the Sheriffship of Bute, ant:lrt eve
Mr. Robert Hunter is to succeed to that office. We "e;:ot
that Mr. Ivory has taken this step from finding the frieq-eies
journeys to the county, as well as to the depenu,en-tho
of a remote district, now required from Sheriffs under the
or
Reform Act, and other recent Statutes, not convenient
~t
compatible with his extensive and increasing practice :0
Cie Bar. In this view, it is impossible to app 3
reciate 'l°,,
highly the honourable and disinterested course followed (i
this able and excellent person. It not only marks his high
feelings of duty, but affor_ls a practical contradiction to tt.H.,
assertions of those who treat the office of Sheriff-Depute, 1"),i
whomsoever filled, as a sinecure. Indeed, this is the sec",,
instance, within the last twenty years, of Sheriffs in high Pra-ci
tice resigning their office (Lord Cotehouse having resign..,
the Sheriffship of Sutherland in 1819) to enable them to et.
sue their professional career with more undivided attentio%
We trust that Mr. Ivory will long enjoy health and vigour Th
reap the fruits of his high-minded resolution; and althougt
we think the county highly fortunate in having a successor
him of the talents and principles of Mr. Hunter, we are 5°
that all classes in the county will feel the loss of such a man
as Mr. Ivory, as no ordinary deprivation.—Scotsman.
