?745.1 THE CLAN REGIMENTS. 327 venerable Market Cross, with the heralds, pursuivants, and the magistrates (many most unwillingly) in their robes, while Mr. David Beath proclaimed ? James VIII., King of Scotland, England, France, and Ireland,? in the usual old form, and read the Commission of Regency, dated 1743, with the manifesto of the Prince, dated at Paris, May 16th, 1745. A number of ladies on horseback, with swords drawn, acted as a guard of honour. ? A great multitude of sympathising spectators was present at the ceremony, and testified their satisfaction by cordial cheers. In the evening the long-deserted apartments of Holyrood were enlivened by a ball, at which the Jacobite ladies were charmed with the elegant manners and vivacity of the youthful aspirant to the throne.?? On the following day Lord Nairne came in with the Atliol Highlanders; old Lord Kellie came in with only an aged serving man ; the Grants of Glenmomston, 250 strong, marched in on the morning of the zoth, but the main body of the clan stood aloof, though Lord Balmerino and m a y other noble and disinherited gentlemen (who came almost unattended) joined the standard. The Highlanders remained within their camp, or when in the city behaved themselves with the utmost order and decorum; no outrages occurred, and no brawls of any kind ensued ; meanwhile, the garrison remained close within the Castle, and till after the battle of Preston Pans, no collision took place between them and the troops. Their quiet, orderly, and admirable conduct formed a marked difference between them and most of the merciless ruffians, who, under Hawley, Huske, and Ctmberland, disgraced the British uniform; for the little army of Charles Edward vas as orderly as it was brave, and organised in a fashion of its own-the discipline of the modem system being added easily to the principle of clanship, and the whole-then only 3,000-were now completely equipped with the arms found in the city. The pay of a captain was 2s. 6d. daily; of a lieutenant, 2s. ; ensign, IS. 6d. ; of a private, 6d. In the clan regiments every company had a double set of officers. The Leine chrios (shirt of mail) or chosen men, were in the centre of each battalion, to defend the chief and colours. The front rank, when in line, consisted of the best blood of the clan and the best armed-particularly those who had targets. All these received IS. daily while the Prince?s money lasted. The battle of Preston Pans is apart from the history _ . - of Edinburgh; . but there, on the 20th Sep But few took up arms in his cause. :ember, the Highlanders, suffering under innumerrble disadvantages, gained a signal victory, in a ?ew minutes, over a well-disciplined and veteran rrmy, sweeping it from the field in irretrievable :onfusion. The cavalry escaped by the speed if their horses, but all the infantry were killed )r taken, with their colours, cannon, baggage, Irums, and military chest containing L6,ooo. Zharles, who, the night before the victory, slept .n a little house still shown at Duddingston, bore lis conquest with great moderation and modesty, :ven proposing to put the wounded-among whom vas the Master of Torphichen, suffering from wenty sword wounds, of which he died-in Holy- :ood, but the Royal Infirmary was preferred, as the ?alace was required for the purposes ,of royalty. On the zrst, preceded by IOO pipers playing :?The king shall enjoy his own again,? the prisoners, to the number of 1,500, of whom 80 were Dfficers, were marched through Edinburgh (prior :o their committal to Logierait and the Castle If Doune), together with the baggage train, which nad been taken by the Camerons, and the colours if the 13th and 14th Light Dragoons, the 6th, 44th, +6th, 47th, and Loudon?s Corps. The Prince had the good taste not to accompany this triumphal procession. The officers were for a time placed in Queensberry House in the Canongate. Curiously enough, Sir John Cope?s cannon were all captured on a tramway, or line of wooden rails, the first of the kind known in Europe, and belonging to some coal-pits in the vicinity of the field. The pusillanimity of the regulars was very sinylar, but none more so than that of a party of light dragoons commanded by Major Caulfield, who fled from the field to the Castle of Edinburgh, 1 distance of ten miles, permitting themselves to be pursued by a single horseman, Colquhoun Grant of Burnside-a little property near Castle Grantwho, in the battle, at the head of twenty-eight Highlanders, captured two pieces of cannon. He pursued the fugitives to the very gates of the Castle, which received them, and were closed at his approach. After this he leisurely rode down the street, and,?aRer being measured for a tartan suit in the Luckenbooths, left the city by the Nether Bow-his resolute aspect, ?? bloody sword, and blood-stained habiliments ? striking terror into all who thought of opposing him. Grant was selected as one of the Prince?s Life Guards, under Lord Elcho. The dress of these Guards was blue faced with red, and scarlet waistcoats laced with gold ; the horse-fumiture the same. He lived long after these events as a Writer to the Signet in Edinburgh, where he died in 1792. _. He resided in Gavinloch?s ...

210 OLD AND NEW EDINBURGH. [Leith each trade, all deacons and treasurers, and constituting, or deemed to be; a separate corporation. But the body, though dating at least from 1594, was voted by several of the trades corporations in 1832 as useless, and since then its existence has been very questionable. Though Leith is not in a strict sense a manufacturing town or the seat of a staple produce, it possesses many productive establishments, as ship building and sail-cloth manufactories. Nong the shore of South Leith are several vast conical chimneys, manufactories of glass, but chiefly in the department of common ale and wine bottles ; this trade is supposed to have been introduced by English settlers during the time of Cromwell. In the centre of the town there was commenced in 1830 a corn-mill propelled by steam, and of gigantic dimensions, as its huge bulk towered against the sky and above the surface of the little undulating sea of roofs around it. Leith possesses warehouses of great extent, which are the seats of extensive tratic with large districts of Scotland, for the transmission thither of wines and foreigti and British spirits ; and there are also other manufacturing establishments besides those named, for the making of cordage, for brewing, distilling, and rectifying spirits, refining sugar, preserving tinned meats, soap and candle manufactones, with several extensive cooperages, ironfoundries, flour mills, tanneries, and saw-mills. But those who see Leith now, even with all its extended docks and piers, can have no conception of the scene presented by the port during the protracted war with France and Spain, when .an admiral?s flagship lay in the Roads, with a guardship and squadron. Daily scores of men-of-war boats, manned by seamen or marines, were amving and departing ; prisoners of war in all manner of uniforms, and often in rags, were being landed or embarked ; press-gangs had their tenders moored by the Shore. Infantry barracks, now granaries, were on the North Quay ; stores, cannon, and provisions encumbered it on every hand ; while almost daily salutes were being fired froin ship and battery in honour of victories by land or sea; recruiting parties beat up, with swords drawn and ribbons streaming ; seamen crowded every tavern, their pockets flush with Spanish dollars, and bank-notes tied round their hats ; men-of-war, privateers, trans ports, filled the Firth, and merchantmen mustered in hundreds to await the convoy ere they put to sea ; there, too, were the gallant old Leith and London smacks, armed with carronadcs, that fought their own way, with the old Scottish flag at their mast-heads, and many a time and oft, with signal valour, beat off French, Spanish, and. Dutch privateers. Such was Leith at the close of the last century and in the early years of the present one, until the battle of Waterloo. In the first years of the last century there were occasional packet-ships between Leith and London. In 1720 the Bon Accord, Captain Buchanan, is advertised to sail to London with passengers on 30th June, and to ? k e q the day, goods or no goods; ? and a similar notice appears in I 7 2 a concerning the ? Unity packet-boat of Leith.? The master to be spoken to in the high Coffee House. (Sf. Jams?s fivening Post.) In 1743 one of these packets, after a twenty days? voyage, arrived only at Holy Island, through stress of weather. Previous to the introduction of the smacks, which were large and beautiful cutters, carrying an enormous spread of fore and aft canvas, the passenger and other trade between Leith and London was carried on by means of clumsy bluff-bowed brigs, ranging from 160 to 200 tons burden, and having such very imperfect cabin accommodation that many persons preferred to make the trip by the ships which camed salmon between Berwick and the Thames. In those days the traders were advertised for twelve or fourteen days before they intended to sail, and interim arrangements were always made with the captain at ? Forrest?s Coffee House,? or on ? The Scots? Walk,? in London, as the case might be, ?wheo civil usage? was promised, and the number of guns carried by the vessel generally stated. The following is an advertisement from the Edihburgh ChronicZe, June nnd, I759 :-- ?? For LONDON, the ship Reward, Old England built, William Marshal, master, now lying at the Birth at Bames Nook, Leith Harbour, taking in goods, and will sail with the first convoy. ?The said master to be spoken with at the ? Caledonia? or ? Forrest?s Coffee House,? Edinburgh, or at his house in the Broad Wynd, Leith. ? N.B.-The ship is an exceeding fast sailer, has good accommodztion for passengers, and good usage may be depended OH.? In 1777 the smack Edinburgh was advertised in the Mercury to sail at a fixed date, that she has ? neat accommodation for passengers,? also that good usage may be relied on. The Success, lying at the New Quay, is also advertised to sail by the canal for Glasgow, weather permitting. The passenger traffic increased to such an extent that in 1791 the Leith and Berwick Shipping Company established their head-quarters in Leith, the ... OLD AND NEW EDINBURGH.

natural death-all the rest having lost their lives in defence of their country. If we turn to Holyrood, what visions and memories must arise of Knoq standing grim and stem before his queen, in his black Geneva cloak, with his hands planted on the horn handle of his long walking-cane, daringly rebuking her love of music and dancing-unbending, unyieldmg, and unmelted, by her exalted rank, her beauty, or her bitter tears j and of that terrible night in the Tower of James V., when sickly Ruthven, looking pale as a spectre under the open visor of his helmet, drew back with gauntleted hand the ancient arras as the assassins stole up the secret stair,-and then Rizzio, clinging wildly to the queen?s skirt, and dying beneath her eyes of many a mortal wound, with Darnley?s dagger planted in his body; of Charles Edward, in the prime of his youth and comeliness, already seeing the crown of the Stuarts upon his exiled father?s head, surrounded by exultant Jacobite ladies, with white cockades on their bosoms, and dancing in the long gallery of the kings to the sound of the same pipes that blew the onset at Falkirk and Culloden ! A very few years later, and Boswell, ?and Dr. Johnson in his brown suit with steel buttons, might have been seen coming arm-in-arm from the White Horse Hostel in Boyd?s Close-the burly lexicographer, as his obsequious follower tells us, grumbling and stumbling in the dark, as they proceeded on their way to the abode of the latter in James?s Court; but his visit to Scotland compelled the pedant, who trembled at the Cock Lane ghost and yet laughed at the idea of an earthquake in Lisbon, to have, as Macaulay says, a salutary suspicion of his own deficiencies, which skems on that occasion to have crossed his mind for the first time.? In yonder house, in Dunbar?s Close, the Ironsides of Cromwell had their guard-house ; and on the adjacent bartizan, that commanded a view of all the fields and farms to the north, in the autumn evenings of 1650~ the Protector often sat with Mathew Tiomlinson, Monk, and Ireton, each smoking their yards of clay and drinking Scottish . ale, or claret, and expounding, it might be, texts of Scripture, while their batteries at the Lang-gate ? and Heriot?s Hospital threw shot and shell at the Castle, then feebly defended by the treacherous Dundas, from whom the Protector?s gold won what, he himself admitted, steel and shot might never have done, the fortress never before being so strong as it was then, with all its stores and garrison. And in, that wynd, to which, in perishing, he gave his name, we shall see the sturdy craftsman Halkerston fighting to the death, with his two-handed sword, against the English invaders. Turn which way we hay in Edinburgh, that stirring past attends us, and every old stone is a record of the days, the years, and the people, who have passed away. In a cellar not far distant the Treaty of Union was partly signed, in haste and fear and trembling, while the street without rang with the yells and opprobrious cries of the infuriated mob ; and after that event, by the general desertion of the nobility, came what has been emphatically called the Dark Age of Edinburgh-that dull and heartless period when grass was seen to grow around the market-, cross, when a strange and unnatural stillness-the stillness of village life-seemed to settle over every one and everything, when the author of ? Douglas ? was put under ban for daring to write that tragedy, and when men made their last will and testament before setting out by the stage for London, and when such advertisements appeared as that which we find in the EdinbuTh Coirranf for 7th March, 1761 -?A young lady who is about to set out fqr London in a postchaise will be glad of a companion. Enquire at the publisher of this paper ; ? -when Edinburgh was so secluded and had such little intercourse with London, that on one occasion the mail brought but a single letter (for the British Linen Company), and the dullness of local life received a fillip only when Admiral de Fourbin was off the coast of Fife, or the presence of Thurot the corsair, or of Paul Jones, brought back some of the old Scottish spirit of the past. The stately oaks of the Burghmuir, under which Guy of Namuis Flemish lances fled in ruin and defeat before the Scots of Douglas and Dalhousie, have long since passed away, and handsome modem villas cover all the land to the base of the bordering hills; but the old battle stone, in which our kings planted their standards, and which marked the Campus Martius of the Scottish hosts, still lingers there on the south; and the once lonely Figgatemuir on the east, where the monks of Holyrood grazed their flocks and herds, and where Wallace mustered his warriors prior to the storming of Dunbar, is now a pleasant little watering place, which somewhat vainly boasts itself ?? the Scottish Brighton.? The remarkable appearance and construction of old Edinburgh-towering skyward, storey upon storey, with all its black and bulky chimneys, crowstepped gables, and outside stairs-arise from the circumstance of its having been twice walled, and the necessity for residing within these barriers, for protection in times of foreign or domestic war. Thus, what Victor Hug0 says of the Paris of Philip ? ... death-all the rest having lost their lives in defence of their country. If we turn to Holyrood, what ...

226 OLD AKD NEW EDINBURGH. [High Street, Europe or America as a handy yet comprehensive book of ready reference, and of which the learned and ingenious Dr. Andrew Findlater acted as editor. In 1849 William purchased the estate of Glenormiston, and ten years after made a valuable gift to his native town, in the form of a suite of buildings, including a public reading-room, a good library, lecture-hall, museum, and art gallery, designated the ?Chambers Institution ;? and in 1864 he issued his ?History of Peeblesshire,? an able example of local annals. In 1865 he was elected Lord Provost of Edinburgh, and inaugurated the great architectural improvements set afoot in the more ancient parts of the city ; and in 1872 the University conferred upon him the degree of LL.D. I In 1860-1 the brothers projected that important work which gave Robert Chambers his death-blow -? The Book of Days : a Miscellany of Popular Antiquities in connection with the Calendar, including Anecdote, Biography, History, Curiosities of Literature, &c., SLc.,? a large work, in two volumes of 840 pages each. Disappointed in promised literary aid, Robert wqs compelled to perform the @eater part of this work alone, and during the winter of 186r-2 ?he might be seen every day in the British Museum, working hard at this fatal book; The mental strain broke him down; domestic bereavements aggravated the effects of ill-health, and with it, though he lived to finish his ?Life of Smollett,? his literary career closed. He died at St. Andrews in the beginning of the year 1870.? Still hale and healthy, and as full of intellectual vigour as when he handled the old printing press in his little shop in Leith Walk, William?s pen was yet busy, and produced, in 1860, ?The Youth?s Companion and Counsellor;? in 1862, ?? Something of Italy: in 1870, ?Wintering at Mentone p in 1871, ?? France, its History and Revolutions f and, in 1872, an affectionate ?Memoir? of his brother Robert, and ?Ailie Gilroy,? a simple and pathetic little story. ? In reviewing the life of this eminent publisher,? says a writer in the Nafiond Forfraif GaZlery, <? one may say that he has so lived as to teach the world how the good old-fashioned commonplace virtues can be exalted into the loftiest range of moral heroism ; that he has left on record a grand and manly example of self-help which time can never obliterate from the admiring memory of succeeding generations. Life has to him been a sacred trust, to be used for helping on the advancement of humanity, and for aiding the diffusion of knowledge. The moral to be drawn from his biography is that, with macly self-trust, with high and noble aims, with fair education, and with diligence, a man may, no matter how poor he be at the outset of his career, struggle upwards and onwards to fill a high social position, and enjoy no ordinary share of earthly honours and possessions.? At the establishment of the Messrs. Chambers fully two hundred hands are constantly employed, and their premises in Warriston Close (which have also an entrance from the High Street) form one of the interesting sights in the city. Lower down the-Close stood a large and handsome house, having a Gothic niche at its entrance, which was covered with armorial bearings and many sorely obliterated inscriptions, of which onlythe fragment of one was traceable-Gracia Dei Thomas 1: This was the town residence of Sir Thomas Craig of Riccarton, a man of eminent learning and great nobility of character, and who practised as a lawyer for fully forty years, during the stormy reigns of Mary and James VI. In 1564 he was made Justice Depute, and found time to give to the world some very able poems-one on the birth of James, and another on his departure for England, are preserved in the DeZifiG Poefamm Scofurwi. He steadily refused the honour of knighthood, yet was always called Sir Thomas Craig, in conforniity to a royal edict on the subject. He wrote a treatise on the independent sovereignty of Scotland, which was rendered into wretched English by Ridpath, and published in 1675. He was Advocate for the Church, when he died at Edinburgh, on the 26th of February, r608, and was succeeded in the old house, as well as his estate, by his eldest son, Sir Lewis Craig, born in 1569, and called to the bench in 1604, as Lord Wrightslands, while his father was still a pleader at the bar. After his time his house had as occupiers, first Sir George Urquhart of Cromarty, and next Sir Robert Baird, Bart., of Saughton Hall, who died in 1714. But by far the most celebrated residenter in this venerable alley was he who gave it the name it bears, Sir Archibald Johnston Lord Warriston, whose estate, still so named, lies eastward of Inverleith Row. The son of Johnston of Beirholm (once a merchant in Edinburgh), by his wife Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Thomas Craig (above mentioned), this celebrated lawyer, subtle statesman, and somewhat juggling politician, was called to the bar in 1633, and would appear to have purchased from his cousin, Sir Lewis Craig, a house in the close, adjoining his own. In 1637 he began to take a prominent part in the bitter disputes of the period, and Bishop Bur ... OLD AKD NEW EDINBURGH.
