TheCaledonian railway passes northward along the coasttill close to Nigg Bay, whence it curves westward acrossthe Dee to Aberdeen, the total length <strong>of</strong> the Niggportion being 5 miles. There is a station at Cove.The only mansion is Loirston House.The parisli is in the presbytery and synod <strong>of</strong> Aberdeen,and tlie living is worth £256 a year. The presentchurch, near the centre <strong>of</strong> the parish, is a good granitebuilding, erected in 1829 at a cost <strong>of</strong> £1800, and containing900 sittings. It has a high square tower, whichis seen for a long distance all round. Cove public, Torrypublic, and Cove Episcopalian schools, with respectiveaccommodation for 111, 313, and 104 pupils, had (1883)an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 65, 214, and 59, and grants <strong>of</strong>£38, 8s. 8d., £183, 9s., and £34, 7s. 6d.

Sur., sh. 77, 1873.Nigg, a parish in the NE <strong>of</strong> Ross-shire, on the N side<strong>of</strong> the entrance to the Cromarty Firth. It contains avillage <strong>of</strong> the same name. The parish is boundedNNW, N, and NE by Fearn, E and ESE by the MorayFirth, N by the entrance to the Cromarty Firth, W byCromarty-shire, and NW by Logie-Easter. Except onthe NNW, N, and NE the boundary is natural, thatalong the NW and W being formed by the burn thatpasses Shandwick House (Logie-Easter) and the channelcalled the 'Pot,' formed by the course <strong>of</strong> this burn overthe Sands <strong>of</strong> Easter Ross or the Sands <strong>of</strong> Nigg at lowwater. The greatest length <strong>of</strong> the parish, from Shandwickvillage on the NE to the ferry at the entrance tothe Cromarty Firth on the SW, is 5J miles the greatest;breadth, from the boundary with Logie-Easter parishSE to the Moray Firth, is 3 miles ; and the area is about9000 acres. The indentation <strong>of</strong> the Cromarty Firth tothe W <strong>of</strong> the parish, 4 miles across the mouth and 2miles deep, is known as the Bay <strong>of</strong> Nigg. At hightide the depth <strong>of</strong> water is from 4 to 8 feet, but at lowwater the whole area is laid bare and becomes dry,except where the burns continue their courses over thesand to the main firth. It is frequented by ships <strong>of</strong>small burden bringing coals, lime, and slates, andexporting timber and potatoes. It abounds in shellsand shallow-water fish, and supplies bait for a verylarge proportion <strong>of</strong> the cod and haddock fishers alongthe shores <strong>of</strong> the Moray Firth. Along the Bay <strong>of</strong> Nigg,to the W and NW, the ground is flat and low, and fromthis it slopes gi-adually south-eastward to the Hill <strong>of</strong>Nigs, whence it again slopes, at first ruggedly and thenprecipitously, downward to the shore <strong>of</strong> the MorayFirth. The Hill <strong>of</strong> Nigg is a tract <strong>of</strong> high groundextending through the whole parish, along the shore <strong>of</strong>the Moray Firth, and about 5 miles in length and IJmile in breadth, with a height <strong>of</strong> from 300 to 600 feetabove sea-level. It is partly covered with stragglingpjlantations, and has on the side next the Moray Firth airont <strong>of</strong> l<strong>of</strong>ty precipices, over 200 feet high. At the Send it terminates in the Northern Sutor <strong>of</strong> Cromarty,overhanging the entrance to the Firth <strong>of</strong> the same name.It belonged in ancient times to the Bishops <strong>of</strong> Koss, whohad a residence in the parish, and was then called ' theBishop's forest.' Of the whole parish about 3500 acresare under cultivation or wooded, and the rest <strong>of</strong> thearea is either pasture land or waste. The soil <strong>of</strong> thearable portions is a good black loam, becoming lighternear the coast, and from 1 foot to 4 feet deep. Alongthe Hill <strong>of</strong> Nigg the soil is thin and cold. The underlyingrocks are granitic gneiss. Old Red Sandstone, andon the coast at the NE corner, at Shandwick, are patches<strong>of</strong> liasic shales and limestones. There is a fine section116<strong>of</strong> the Old Red Sandstone exposed along the NorthernSutor containing two beds with fossil fishes, which were,like all those in the Cromarty district, discovered byHugh Miller :— 'Selecting,' he says in the Cruise <strong>of</strong> theBetsy, 'as a hopeful scene <strong>of</strong> inquiry the splendidsection under the Northern Sutor, I set myself doggedlyto determine whether the Old Red Sandstone in thispart <strong>of</strong> the country has not at least its two storeys <strong>of</strong>organic remains, each <strong>of</strong> which had been equally a scene<strong>of</strong> sudden mortality. I was entirely successful. Thelower ichthyolite bed occurs exactly one hundred andfourteen feet over the great conglomerate, and threehundred and eighteen feet higher up I found a secondichthyolite bed, as rich in fossils as the first, with itsthorny Acanthodians twisted half round, as if still inthe agony <strong>of</strong> dissolution, and its Pterichthyes stillextending their spear-like arms in the attitude <strong>of</strong>defence. The discovery enabled me to assign to theirtrue places the various ichthyolite beds <strong>of</strong> the district.Those in the immediate neighbourhood <strong>of</strong> the town[<strong>of</strong> Cromarty], and a bed which abuts on the lias atEathie, belong to the upper platform ; while those thatappear in Eathie Burn, and along the shores at Navity,belong to the lower. 'The chief interest <strong>of</strong> the discovery,however, arises from the light which it throws uponthe condition <strong>of</strong> the ancient ocean <strong>of</strong> the Lower OldRed, and on the extreme precariousness <strong>of</strong> the tenureon which the existence <strong>of</strong> its numerous denizens washeld. In a section <strong>of</strong> little more than a hundred yardsthere occur at least two platforms <strong>of</strong> violent deathplatforms inscribed with unequivocal evidence <strong>of</strong> twogreat catastrophes, which, over wide areas, depopulatedthe seas.' The liasic shales <strong>of</strong> Shandwick are also richlyfossiliferous. The Hill <strong>of</strong> Nigg was one <strong>of</strong> the huntinggrounds<strong>of</strong> the Fions, who used to leap across theCromarty Firth on their hunting-spears, but whose racebecame extinct in consequence <strong>of</strong> all their women andchildren having been burned to death in Glen Garry,while the men were here engaged in hunting. Twomiles along the shore, northward from the NorthernSutor, is the King's Cave ;while a path above, leadingto the top <strong>of</strong> the precipice, is called the King's Path.It is said to take its name from the shipwreck near it <strong>of</strong>a traditional king <strong>of</strong> Denmark. His three sous, whoaccompanied him, were drowned, and one was buriedat Nigg, another at Shandwick, and another at Hillton<strong>of</strong> Cadboll in Fearn parish, and it was at their gravesthat the sculptured stones at these places were erected.The Nigg stone originally stood near the gate <strong>of</strong> theparish burying-grouud, but having been blown down in1725 was afterwards fixed to the eastern end <strong>of</strong> thechurch. One side has a cross, with the usual knottedsculpturing and various figures <strong>of</strong> men and animals.That at Shandwick stood on the brow <strong>of</strong> an eminence,behind the village, but was blown down during a violentgale in 1847, and broken into three pieces. This alsobears on one side a cross, and is very similar in style tothe Nigg stone. A mile and a quarter SW <strong>of</strong> Shandwickvillage is a green mound, with a so-called Danish camp onthe top. Near the brow <strong>of</strong> the Northern Sutor is a littlegreen knoll called Dunskaith, on which it is said that afort was erected by William the Lyon in 1179. Theview from this point is very fine, the entire Firth <strong>of</strong>Cromarty and the rich country around lying spread outas if on a map. From other points also, along thesummit, the view <strong>of</strong> the Moray Firth and its shores isequally good.The drainage <strong>of</strong> the parish is carried <strong>of</strong>f by a number<strong>of</strong> small streams. The principal mansion is BayfieldHouse. Besides Nigg village, at the church, the parishcontains, on the extreme NE, the fishing village <strong>of</strong>Shandwick, and on the extreme SW the fishing villages<strong>of</strong> Balnabradich and Balnapaling. In 1882 Shandwickhad 10 first-class, 6 second-class, and 2 third-class boats,with 45 resident fisher men and boys, while the last twohad 2 first-class, 3 second-class, and 3 third-class boats,with 25 resident fisher men and boys. There is a ferry1 mile wide connecting the S <strong>of</strong> the parish with Cromarty,and a road passes from the landing-place northward
—'NINEMILEBUBNtowards Tain. Nigg station, on the Highland railway,is in the parish <strong>of</strong> Logie-Easter, and 4 miles N <strong>of</strong> thevillage <strong>of</strong> Nigg, wliicli is by the ferry about 3 miles Nby E <strong>of</strong> Cromarty. The parish is in the presbytery <strong>of</strong>Tain and synod <strong>of</strong> Ross ; and the living is worth £380a year. The parish chnrch, which was built in 1626,and has since been several times repaired, contains 425sittings. One <strong>of</strong> the Episcopal ministers <strong>of</strong> the 17thcentury figures in the Ariswer to Scotch PreshyterianEloquence Displayed, as telling his parishioners that ineternity they would be immortalised, ' so that nothingcould hurt them : a slash <strong>of</strong> a broadsword could nothurt you, saith he ; nay, a cannon-ball would play butlajf on you.' In 1756 the parishioners had a threeyears' struggle against an obnoxious presentee to thechurch, and when at last he had gained his cause, andfour members <strong>of</strong> presbytery arrived to carry out hisinduction, the church was found empty. 'Not a singlemember <strong>of</strong> the congregation was to be seen. While ina state <strong>of</strong> perplexity what to do in such a strange condition,one man appeared who had it in charge to tellthem, " That the blood <strong>of</strong> the people <strong>of</strong> Nigg would berequired <strong>of</strong> them if they should settle a man to the walls<strong>of</strong> the kirk," ' after which message he departed, leavingthe members <strong>of</strong> presbytery so much disturbed that theyreferred the whole matter back to the General Assembly,which, however, ordered the induction to be carried out.The people, after struggling on for ten years by themselves,at length left the national church and becameseceders. The bold messenger was Donald Roy, anancestor <strong>of</strong> Hugh Miller, whose gifts <strong>of</strong> prayer and evenprophecy or second sight are still remembered in thenorth. The Free church, erected soon after the Disruption,is g mile N <strong>of</strong> the Established church. One<strong>of</strong> its ministers was John Swanson, the early andintimate friend <strong>of</strong> Hugh Miller. A U.P. church, IJmile to the NE, built in 1871, is a Norman structure,with a square tower, and contains 500 sittings. Itsuperseded an older and slightly larger church, built in1803. The public schools <strong>of</strong> Nigg and Pitcalme, withrespective accommodation for l66 and 85 pupils, had(1883) an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 50 and 43, and grants<strong>of</strong> £48, 13s. and £37, 17s. 6d.

Thence it flows 70f mileswith a general south-south-easterly course, till, after for8XNITHSDALElOJ miles expanding into an estuary with a channel 70to 500 yards wide, it falls into the Solway Firth, 14Jmiles S by E <strong>of</strong> Dumfries, and 6 WNW <strong>of</strong> Silloth inCumberland. As the crow flies the distance from sourceto mouth is only 42,j miles. The first 15| miles <strong>of</strong> itscourse belong to Ayrshire'; the last 16^ divide Dund'riesshirefrom Kirkcudbrightshire. It bounds or traversesthe parishes <strong>of</strong> New Cumnock, Kirkconnel, Sanquhar,Durisdeer, Penpont, Morton, Closeburn, Keir, Dunscore,Kirkmahoe, Holywood, Dumfries, Terregles, Troqueer,Caerlaverock, Newabbej', and Kirkbean ; and in ourarticles on these seventeen parishes full details aregiven as to the towns, villages, mansions, ruins, andother features <strong>of</strong> its course. Its principal afliuents areAlton Water, Kello AVater, Crawick Water, EuchanWater, Minnick Water, Enterkin Burn, Carron AVater,Cample Water, Scar Water, Duncow Burn, CludenWater, Cargen Pow, and Newabbey Pow, all thirteen<strong>of</strong> which are noticed separately. The Nith containssalmon, sea-ti'out, trout, herling, and grayling, butis not so good a fishing stream as the Esk, the Liddel,or the Annan. Like these it has been affected by thesalmon disease, 222 salmon having been found dead and58 destroyed between 1 Jan. 1881 and 31 March 1882.The Nith, till after it gets away from Ayrshire, is one<strong>of</strong> the most cheerless <strong>of</strong> streams, sluggish and shallow,seldom more than 15 feet wide, deeply tinctured withmoss, and rarely graced with plantation, greensward,or even a bold bank, to relieve the dreary monotony <strong>of</strong>its moorland landscape. Its banks, till below Sanquhar,though quite redeemed from the dreariness whichcharacterises them in Ayrshire, are simply agreeable,consisting chieHy <strong>of</strong> a verdant vale overlooked by uplands<strong>of</strong> varied contour but little grandeur ; lowerdown, they are exquisitely rich in many varieties <strong>of</strong>landscape, now exhibiting a narrow acclivitous pass,diversified with wood, escarpment, and rock, nowbursting into an expanse <strong>of</strong> valley, blooming as agarden, and screened with warm-coloured and finelyoutlined mountain-heights, and now presenting suchrapid alterations <strong>of</strong> slope, undulation, haugh, and hill,as charm and surprise the eye, by the mingled wealthand number <strong>of</strong> the transitions. For 3J miles afterreceiving the Scar, the river runs between the beautifulgrounds <strong>of</strong> Keir, slowly rising like a green and s<strong>of</strong>tlywooded gallery on the one hand, and the fine expanse<strong>of</strong> the lirxuriant plain <strong>of</strong> Closeburn, darkly overhungby the Queensberry heights, on the other. It now becomespent up for about 2 miles by the low and diversifiedterminations <strong>of</strong> spurs from the mountain-ranges onthe background ; and, while traversing this space, it isdecked with mansion, park, wood, and lawn, amidstnooks and recesses, hilly abutments and diversifiedslopes, till picturesqueness becomes pr<strong>of</strong>use and almostexcessive. On its clearing this sort <strong>of</strong> gorgeous passin the course <strong>of</strong> which the great Nithsdale road crossesit by the well-known Auldgirth Brig,' which 'Carlyle'sfather helped to buUd—the hills recede from it insweeps, describing the arc <strong>of</strong> a circle ; and while theyform s<strong>of</strong>t and finely-featured screens which terminate onthe one side in the low green heights <strong>of</strong> Mouswald, andon the other in the bold grand form <strong>of</strong> Criffel, theyenclose an oval plain <strong>of</strong> from 6 to 8 miles in breadth.Along the middle <strong>of</strong> this, the joyous and pebblyNith runs, amidst constant verdure, multitudinousgardens, and other elements <strong>of</strong> lovely landscape, to thesea. Nowhere is the magnificence, or at least the rareand romantic character, <strong>of</strong> the famous Solway bore'displayed with finer effect than in the estuary <strong>of</strong> theNith. Owing principally to the tide's impetuosity,the navigation <strong>of</strong> the river is difiicult to seamen unacquaintedwith its peculiarities ; but it has been greatlyimproved. (See Dumfries. ) The valley, all down fromNew Cumnock to Dumfries, principally along its Wside, and generally very close to the stream, is traversedGlasgow akd South-Western Railway.—by theOrd.
