THE CLEARING HOUSE ACTION LOGICAL.

The Clearing House Association at its meeting on
Wednesday formally agreed to bear the loss which
fell unexpectedly on the First National BANK, IN
consequence of the failure OF the Marine Nauohal
Rank and of Grant & Ward 1t took no action in re-
gard to the claim of the receiver Of the Marine Bank
for the repayment of the sum paid on the morn
ing of the failure in making the daily exchanges.
The receiver urges that the amount was taken from
tho Marine Bank after 1t had closed its doors while
the members of the Clearing House assert that the
exchanges were made in the regular course OF Ousi-
ness before the failure of the bank was announced
1t is understood that the action OF the association
was in accordance with the advice or counsel
John /. Cadwalader, who says in his opinion:
NV conclusions rs both claims ead me 10 the opinion
that the position assumed by TIE Clearing l0us' com
mittee with the First National Bank was the
logical harsh effect OF the enforcement OF the Gear
ing House rules and that recovery by the receiver
against each creditor bank for its proportion OF dept
balance pad into the Clearing House Is very luh'iul
The vote of the ASSOCIATION was intended TO redress
any damage to the First National Bank which had
been suffered by the enforcement of the usual rules

less much more beneficial to the country
than separate national existence could
be.
Passing down from the castle, through
the Lawnmarket, High street and the Con-
ongate, all of which form a continuous
street about mile in length, we reach
Holyrood Palace. What a history that
street has had. The palace at one end and
the prison at the other, and as it was but a
step from the Capitol to the ''Tarpean
Rock" SO it was but step from the power
and glory of the palace to the humiliation
and ofttimes death of the dungeon. The
rooms of Holyrood are divided into picture
galleries, state rooms and private apart
ments; but the only portion which can
claim much antiquity is the northwest tower,
in which was Queen Mary's apartments.
| We are shown Lord Darnley's rooms. con-
tanning various interesting relics of Queen
Mary and several portraits. The private
stair by which Rizzio's assassins assembled
to Mary's apartments also has door in
Darnley's room. The upper portion of the
tower was occupied by Queen Mary and the
visitor is first shown large audience cham
Der, decorated with tapestry and with
handsome oak paneled ceiling. Just be-
yond is her bedroom, which contains her
work box, pictures of Henry VIII and
Elizabeth and many other interesting relics.
The supper room in which Rizzio was mur-
dered communicates with the bedroom.
Although the rooms have been kept as
nearly as possible as when she left them,
the hand of time has done its work and the
tapestries are faded, the bed on with she
slept is dropping in pieces and the sadness of
her history is supplemented by the sadness
OF the surroundings. Adjoining the palace
are the ruins of the old Abbey which still
show some remains of its original magnif-
icence. Within its roohess walls are buried
several of the kings and princes of Scotland.
Nearly north of Holyrood and at the east
end of Princes street is Gallon Hill, on
which are the obseivatories and several
public monuments. From its summit and
also from "Arthur's Seat" southeast of the
city, fine views of the surrounding country
can be obtained. In High street formerly
stood the old Tolbooth, which has been i'm
mortalized by Scott in his ''Heart of Mid
Lothian" An immense heart in the pave
ment now marks the spot where the prison
stood. 1t was demolished early in the pre-
sent century. Near by is st. Giles Cathe-
dral, where Jenny Geddes threw her stool at
the head of Dean of Edinburgh. and thus
aroused mighty popular uprising against
the introduction of the obnoxious liturgy
of Laud. A stone in the pavement south
of st. Giles marks the spot where John
Knox was buried and the initials j. K are
all the monument yet erected in Edinburg
to this wonderful man. The old Greyfriars
Church, made memorable by the 'sSolemn
League and Covenant" is in the southern
part of the town and many other places of
interest can be found; but other localities
claim our attention and we must "move
on" GIN.
