A SAD Loss.—An old lady was telling Ler giandchil-
dren about some trouble in Scotland, in the course of
which the chief of her clan wag beheaded. "It was nae
great thing of a head to be sure," said the lady, " but it
was a sad loss to him."

We subjoin the circular issued yesterday to the de-
positors, by Mr. Harding, the interim official manager,
for the winding up of the affairs of this disastrous insti-
tution. We are gratified to find Mr. Harding intimat-
ing that lie desires to avoid needless litigation and delay iff
the administration of his official duties, and that he is
now actively engaged in making arrangements for ascf
tainirg the true amount of the claims and liabilities, and
of the available assets of the bank, as well as the general,
feeling of the depositors as to the compromise of their
claims. Attendance will, we believe, almost imme-
diately be forthwith given at the head office and different
branches, in order to receive and examine the claims of
the depositors and customers, and to communicate in-
formation as to the prospects of the winding-up. There
has been a considerable bartering in the debts due from
the company, and in many cases exchanges have been
effected at a considerable discount. Formal possession
of the head office (a magnificent establishment in the
South Sea House) and branches has been taken by the
manager, wao has also received and paid into the Bank
of England the moneys in the bank's coffers at the time
of the suspension.

"In the Matter of the Joint-Stook Winding-up Act,
1848-9. —The Royal British Bank.
"4, Lothbury, Oct. 4, 1856.
" Sir,—Having been appointed interim official manager
to the Royal British Bank, I beg to inform you that I pro.-
pose attending at on the from nine
o'clock in the forenoon till six in the afternoon, to receive
and examine the claims of the depositors and customers
whose business has been transacted at the branch.

" In order to facilitate the proceeding, I enclose a
printed form, to be returned to me filled up with the infor-
mation I require, to enable me, in pursuance of the power
given by the 74th section of the Winding-up Act, to prove
the debt due to you, without putting you to any expense
or further trouble. I shall be glad, also, at the same time,
to learn your views as to the compromise of such debt.
"My desire is to prevent needless litigation, and, as far
as possible, to avoid delay; and I rely upon your co-
operation' whenever it may be necessary to the attainment
of these objects.—l am, &c."

The printed form simply requires the name and ad-
dress of the depositor, the amount of his claim, and
whether it is upon a cash, credit, or drawing account,
with the following words subjoined :—" I agree to ac-
cept £ ai the compromise of my claim, if paid
within (a given number of days)."
The unfortunate victims of the bank will be glad to
learn that they may cave themselves the usual heavy fee
far prod 'g debts in Chancery.
