"The Marquis of Htmtly's failure."—A paragraph under this title, is

going the round of the papers, pretending to be quoted from the -Herald, stating, among other strange things, that from "the schedule of funds, it appears there are not Is. f ;d. in the pound likely to be realized to pay the debts." No such paragraph appeared in our columns. We understand the state of affairs as first prepared showed a prGbable divi- dend of twelve shillings and sixpence per pound. We trust such of our contemporaries as have given circulation to the statement referred to will also insert this brief correction.—Arbroatit Herald.
