land of a part of the responsibility
for the national debt of England,
which in those days amounted to
$SO,OO0,000 and by the adoption of a
uniform rate of customs and excise
duties for both Kingdoms. But the
principal point was the removal Of
all trade restrictions between the two
Kingdoms, the establishment of free
commercial Intercourse between Scot
land and a country such as England,
in which wealth was much more wide
ly spread, and the admission of Scot
land to the same advantages and
privileges as those enjoyed by Eng
land in trade with foreign countries.
After an agreement based on these
lines had been reached by the COM
nissioners, the convention was suo-
mitted to the Scotch and English par
liaments. In Scotland the majority
in favor was Al, the votes being 11O
for and SO against the ratification of
the treaty. At Westminster the 0p-
position was considerably smaller,
and on March 6, 1907, the act of un-
ion between Scotland and England
received the royal sanction and the
signature of Queen Anne. Since then
the representation of Scotland in the
house of commons has been gradually
increased from forty-five to seventy
two memebers. Scotland, as me1-

the enjoyment of her separate system
of laws and legal administration. But
the laws of England and Scotland
have been in many respects assimi-
lated, the criminal law of the two
countries being almost identical, al
though the methods of procedure are
in many respects different. The
court of session, as the supreme court
in civil cases is called In Scotland,
dates from 1882, and was formed ON
the model of the parliament at Paris,
and Is held at Edinburgh. 1t con-
sists of thirteen judges, acting as an
inner and outer house. The inner
house has two divisions. with four
judges each, the first being presided
over by the lord president of the
whole court, and the second by the
lord justice clerk. In the outer house
five judges, called lords ordinary, sit
in separate courts. Appeals may be
made from the lords ordinary TO
either of the divisions of the inner
house, and, If the occasion demands,
the opinion of all the judges of the
court of session may be called. Ap-
peals may also be made from the
court of session to the house of lords
at Westminster. The lord tusdce

The members of the bar who practice
in these courts are described as ad-

London, March while Ireland
is straining every nerve TO prinS
about a repeal of the legislation unit
ing her to Great Britain in 1S0O'
Scotland is not far behind time. To-
day marks an extraordinary land
mark in Scotlands history as 1t cele-
brates the 200th anniversary of the
union -between England and Scot
land.
Both kingdoms regard the event as
a cause for national rejoicing and are
emphatic in their belief that the un-
ion contracted just two centuries ago
has contributed not only to the
grandeur of the British empire as a
whole, but also to the prosperity of
the two parties to the agreement
For, If Glasgow is today second only
in Great Britain to London in point
of population, wealth and CONNER
cial Importance, superior In those re-
spects even to Liverpool and to Man
chester, it is owing to the removal o.
those restrictions of trade which ex-
listed prior to the union, and which
would be the inevitable consequence
of any repeal of the union now ex-
listing between Great Britain and Ire
land. Indeed, at the present mo-
ment, when Hungary, following the
example of ireland, is clamoring for
independence and for separation from
Austria, as indispensable to her econ
omic and political development, and
when Norway has just succeeded in
cutting herself adrift from Sweden,
when secession, in fact, is in the air,
it is well worth while briefly to review
the lessons taught by the 200 years
of union between England and Scot
land.
OF course the first step toward the
agreement between the thistle and
the rose was when James vi OF Scot
land succeeded to the crown of Eng
land as James ], q succession brought
about by the sagacity and prescience
of Henry VII, who, when nearly 100
years previously he gave his daugh-
ter, Margaret, to James ~ In mar
riage, foresaw the eventual union OF
the crowns. and predicted that It
would prove an acquisition OF
strength to England. For the next
100 years after the accession of
James 1 to the throne of England,
Scotland retained her own parlia-
ment, and, though owing allegiance
to the same king, was deprived OF the
privilege of commercial equality, be-
ing treated by England in all matters
relating to trade and industry as a
foreign country, the attempt of the
king to govern Scotland from London
through a Scottish parliament natur-
ally furnishing abundant opportu,i-
ties of unfair interference on the part
of officious English ministers in Scot
tish affairs. Finally the situation be-
came so intolerable that the two
kingdoms were rapidly drifting back
to the bitter enmity which had pre-
vailed prior to the union of the
crowns and at the beginning of the
eighteenth century we find English
merchant ships being seized in the
Forth by the Scottish government in
retaliation for the seizure of Scottish
shipping in the Thames.
