A county meeting was held at Edinburgh on
Tuesday, when an interesting discussion took place
on certain resolutions moved by Sir James Gibson
Craig at a late meeting, and referred to a committee.
The object of these resolutions was to maintain the
present system of banking in Scotland. Lord Mel-
ville and Lord Dunfermline spoke against the resolu-
tions, the former, however, being in favour of one-
pound notes. Lord Rosebery and Sir J. G. Craig
spoke on the other side ; and on a division, 13 voted
for the resolutions, and 13 against them. Sir John
Hope, the Chairman, gave the casting vote in favour
of the resolutions.
