Company across the Forth from Leith. It is to be hoped, however, that there will be no undue haste in reviving shipwrecked oil concerns.

Obituary.

RIGHT HON. CHARLES SEALE-HAYNE, M.P.— Mr. Seale-Hayne, who died of apoplexy on Sunday morning, 22nd inst., was a member of the Society of Arts since 1869. He was born at Brighton in 1833, educated at Eton, and called to the bar in 1857. In 1865 he was elected Liberal member for the Mid or Ashburton Division of Devonshire, which he continued to represent until his death. In 1892 he obtained the office of Paymaster-General, and was created a Privy Councillor. He was treasurer of the Cobden Club, in which organisation he took an active interest. He also took a prominent part in the affairs of Devonshire. He was the first chairman of the Dartmouth and Torbay Railway, and was also a director of the South Devon Railway Company before its acquisition by the Great Western Railway. In 1870 he wrote a letter on Railway Reform, which was printed in the Society's Journal (vol. xviii., p. 697).
