THE LADY OF GLENFALLACH.

The various assaults to which Rob Roy had
been accessory upon the Earl OF Athol and his
numeI Gus vassals, were not dictated by malice,
or a wish for spoil, but continued as chastise.
ment for the contempt in which he was held BY
tllt nobleman, who did not respect his bravery
although he had often seen and dreaded its ct
fects. Rob having shewn no inclination to desis
from these practices, Athol resolved to correct
him in person as all former attempts to subdne
him had failed, and with this bold intention he
set forward to Balquihidelar A large portion of
that country then belonged to Athol; and when
he arrived there, he summoned the attendance OF
his vassals; who very unwillingly accompanied
him to Rob's house, as many of them we're Mac
rregors, but dared not refuse their laird. Robs
mother having died in his house preparations
we're going forward for the funeral, which was
to take place that day and on this occasion he
could have dispensed with such unlocked fol
guests. lie knew the purpose Of their visit, ant
Ito escape seemed impossible; but, with strength
of mind and quickness of thought, he buckled or
Ibis sword, and went out to meet the earl. lie
saluted him very graciousy, and SAID he was
much obliged to his lordshp tor having come, un'
asked, to his mother'r funeral, which was piece
of Friendship he did not expect; but Athol REPLIED
THAT he did not come for that purpose, but to de-
sire his company to Perth. Rob, however de-
cned the honor, as he could not leave ms Ho'.-
er's funeral, but after doing that last duty 10 his
parent, he would go if his lordshiP insisted upon
liz. Atbol said The funeral could 60 on without
him, and would not delay. A long remonstrance
ensued but the earl was inexorable, and Rob,
apparently complying, went away am'uss e. 'he

VIRGINIA LEGISLATURES.

HOUSE OF DELEGATES, February 26.
On MIR. LoyaIPs motion, the bill to extend the
charter of the Farmers Bank, with the amend
Dlent OF the Senate, were taken up.
Mr. Christian moved an indefinite postpone
ment OF the whole subject. lie went into the
merits OF the question involved by the original
bill, and contendel that there was no necessity
for acting at the present session. The views,
feelings and wishes of the people ought to be
consulted, as worthy to influence and control
the decision of the House. But if the Bank
was to be chartered with a bonus, why, he ask
ed, give that bonus to the Uniuersity? Was
that institution entitled in that House to exclu-
slve privileges? He objected to the extension
OF the charter for 15 years, and argued that such
extension would probably put it out of the pow
er ofthe Legislature to rid the country of banks.
The arguments which gentlemen had adduced
on former occasion to prove that there exist
ed necessity for keeping in existence the
state banks, for the purpose Of counteryailinr
the power aud the influence of the u States
bank, were, in his opinion, falacious. The in
terest of the u. States Bank, to which it would
always look with a single eye, would in
duce it to make loans to such persons as
we're entitled to them. And if bank capital be
necessary, it was not material from whence it
came. He went into calculations to prove that
the interests Of the stockholders required that
the charter should be permitted to expire.
ihey have been deriving but small profit, and
there was no probabilityof its increasing. The
losses OF the bank are now very heavy, and will
be most serious. The bank is now authorized
to issue paper to three times the amount of its
capitai--but having lost large portion of its
capital, it is still permitted to issue the same
amount Was there, he asked, no dangero of
issues beyond the ability OF the bank to redeem /?
and all the consequent evils Of deprecated
currency

Whereas, the President of the United States
i'll his Message to Congress, dated I'd December,
1928, declares to the world and the Holy Ali
ance in particular, that, s'Thc citizens of the
United States cherish sentiments the most friend
ly, III favor OF the liberty and happiness of their
iellow men on that side of the Atlantic. In
the wars OF the European powers, in matters re-
latlng to themselves we have never taken any
part nor docs it comport with our policy so to do
1t is only when our rights are invaded orserious-
ly meuaced, that we resent injuries, or make
preparation for our defence. With the move
rlents in this hemisphere, we arc of necessity
more Immediately connected, and by causes
which must be obvious Oall enlightened and i'm
partial observers The political system of the
Allied Powers is essentially different, in this
respect, from that of America. This difference
proceeds from that which exists in their respec-
tive Governments. And to the defence of our
own, which has been achieved by the loss of so
much blood and treasure, and matured by the
wisdom of their most enlightened citizens, and
under which we have enjoyed unexampled fell
city, this whole nation is devoted. We owe
it therefore to can1or, and TO the amcable rela-
tons existing between the United States aud
those powers, to declare, that we should cOnsil-
or any attempt, ON their part, to extend their
system to any portion Of the hemisphere, as
dangerous to our peace and safety. With the
existing colonies or dependencies Of an Euro
pcan power, we have not interfcrcd, and shall
not interfere. But with the governments who
have declared their independence and maintain
cd it, and whose Independence we have on great
consideration and on Just principles, acknow-
lodged, we could not view any in;erpositio1

controlling in any other manner, their destiny,
