But upon up- wards of six hundred thousand pounds, for which it was continually drawing bills of exchange upon London, it was paying in the way of interest and commission, upwards of eight per cent, apd was consequently losing more than three per cent up« on morn than three-fourths of its dealings. The operations of this bank seem to^ have produced effects quite opposite to those which were intend- ed by the particular persons who planned and directed it They seem to have intended to sup- port ...the spirited undertakings (for as such they considered them,) which were at that time car- rying on in different parts of the country ; and at the same time, by drawing the whole banking business to themselves, to supplant all the other Scotch banks, particularly those established at Edinburgh, whose backwardness in discounting bills h^d given some offence. This bank gave^ no doubt^ some temporary relief to those projec- tors, and e;iabled them to carry on their projects for about two years longer than they could other^ vise have done.
