Dunse a parish at the northern limit of the district of Merse in Berwickshire. It is bounded on the north by Abby St Bathan's and a detached part of Longformacus; on the north-east by Buncle and Edrom; on the south by Edrom; on the south-west by Langton; and on the west by Longformacus. It is irregular in outline; but, may in a general view, be regarded as oblong. In extreme length it measures 6 miles in average breadth 3½ miles; and in superficial area. about 21 square miles. The northern division, comprising about one-third of the area, is clothed in a heathy dress, variegated withstripes of pastoral green and autumnal yellow; and running up the aclivity of the Lammermoor hills. sends aloft near the boundary, the Conspicuous Cone of Cockburn law 912 feet above the level of the ocean. The southern and larger division undulates along the valley of the Merse. with, in general, a de-lightfully rolling surface, a rich and fertile soil, and an ample adorning of Culture and grove. Dunse law, north of the town of Dunse, stands on a base of between 2 and 3 milesin Cir-cumference, and rises in a gradual ascent on all sides, till it terminates in a plain of nearly30 acres, 630 feet above the level of the sea. Its table-summit was the site of the original town or village, and is still tracked by the vestiges of the entrenched Camp of the army of Covenanters, under General Leslie, who here sat down to watch the Warlike movements of Charles for enforcing prelacy. Whiteadder water comes down upon the parish at its north-eastern angle and forms its boundary-line over a distance of 2½ Miles, offering to the luxurious, banquets of a delicious fish, called the Whittling, from 16 to 24 Inches long, and of a high coloured red flesh similar to that of the Salmon. A brook called Langton burn, flows down from the West |

Dunse, a burgh-of-barony, and the most important town in Berwickshire, stands on a fine plain at the Southern base of Dunselaw, 7½ miles from Greenlaw, 11 from Ayton, 15 1/8 from Berwick-upon-Tweed, 10¾ from Coldstream, and 44 by way of Haddington from Edinburgh. Situated in the Centre of the County, and unrivalled in extent. attractions, and marketing importance, it is the virtual, though not the civil, Capital of Berwickshire. It is neat and modern in its edifices, spacious and tidy in its Streets, and pleasing, though not brilliant, in its general burghal appearance. In the market-place - which is a fine open area or square - stands the town-house, a beautiful Gothic structure of modern erection. surmounted by a very elegant and tasteful spire. An array of good houses, large shops, and commodious Churches and Seminaries, imparts to the town a cheerful aspect. As the scene of most of the legal business of the County, a large body of provincial lawyers figure among its population.
Most of the inhabitants are shop Keepers, handcraftsmen, and dependants on the marketing, from an extensive range of agricultural Country. Though there is some weaving conducted in the town and neighbourhood, yet it does not sensibly impress on the town a manufacturing character. A weekly market on Wednesday, 3 Anual fairs for Cattle, and quarterly markets for Sheep, draw down upon it the stir and the traffic by which it mainly Subsists. The fair held at Dunse on the 1st Thursday Of June is an important one for fat Cattle, which are mostly purchased by English dealers. There is usually a small show of sheep also at the fair.
Dunse August fair has declined of late years. It is also a hiring market, and is held on the 26th of the month. It has also declined. The first of the sheep-markets is held on the 4th Wednesday of March, and is Chiefly for the Sale of ewes in lamb; the 2nd on the 3rd Wednesday Of May, is for hogs and Wethers; the 3rd, on the 2nd Wednesday of July, is principally for lambs, and is also a great wool-market. The 4th Sheep-market is held on the 4th Wednesday of September, and is principally for draft ewes.

Continued A subscription library, two circul [circulating] libraries, a news-room, two bookselle [booksellers] and a printing-Office, seem to indicate [the] presence of literary taste; and two friendly societies and a savings bank intimate la [large] concern for the interests of the poor. The town is the seat of a Justice-of-Peace [Court] on the first monday of every month; and it has branch-Offices of the British linen bank, and the bank of Scotland. Dunse is of considerable antiquity, and appe [appears to] have been at one time a free burgh-of-barony, whose burgesses had power to cho [choose] magistrates, and create corporations. In 1670, Sir James Cockburn of Cockburn, who ha [had purchased] the estate of Dunse from Hume of Ayton, obtained from Charles II. a charter, ere [erecting] it under him into a burgh-of-barony; and since that date, he and his successors in claims nominated a baillie to its government, without consulting its fuars and inhabita [inhabitants.] The baronial right of Superiority was subsequently acquired, and continues to be [possessed] by Hay of Drummelzier. The south part of the town stands on the barony of Cru [Crumstane] belonging to the same Superior. Yet the inhabitants of Dunse are a private associat [association] who manage the police and the common good, and are called "the fuars of Dunse", in the way that inhabitants of royal burghs are called burgesses. The common good or proper [property of] the fuars consists of the town-house, which draws rent from the county of Berwick, and parties occasionally using it and which is fitted up in the lower floors in shops; 10 acres of land on a neighbouring-muir, which contain a Whin [Whinstone] quarry; and the proceeds of the manure of the town, and the weighing-machine or steel-yard. The annual revenue from these sources is £123.15.0; and the anual expenditure for the year 1833, was £140.5.11. Six corporations or crafts formerly existed, and exclusive privileges; but during the last 27 years they have practically ceased. During 120 years after the cession of Berwick-upon-Tw [Tweed to] England, Dunse shared with Lauder the privilege of being the county-town; and not even in favor of Greenlaw, was it wholly [deprived] of that privilige till the year 1696. There were within the burgh, in 1833, 148 householders, whose rent were £10. and upw [upwards] and 84 whose rents amounted to £5, but were under £10. |

Lammermoor-hills. A broad range of moorish heights, stretching eastward from the vale of Gala-Water, in the south-east extremity of Mid-Lothian, to the German Ocean at the promontories of Fast-Castle, Ernscleugh, and St. Abbs-head, in the parish of Coldingham Berwickshire. The Lammermoors all lie within East-Lothian and Berwickshire; commencing at their extreme western limit, forming for two-thirds of their extent, a southern screen, or belt of Uplands to Mid-Lothian, and constituting - if the Lammermoor part of Lauderdale be included - nearly one-half of Berwickshire. The Lammermoors are, in themselves an extensive curvature of, for the most part, wild, cheerless, unsightly heights, -- nowhere bold and imposing in aspect, and often subsiding into low rolling table-lands, of bleak moor. They were at one time clothed with forest, and must then have been as bewildering to the Traveller as grandly sylvan in their vast Contribution to the landscape. They still have natural woods hanging on some of their steeps, and, in such localities, are warmed out of their chilly aspect; but over their summits, and down their higher slopes they are almost even when nakedly dressed in heath. The soil in nearly all the upper parts is a light peat mould; and even in some of the lower parts -- as in the parish of Westruther -- it is a swampy moss. But elsewhere the prevailing peat is mixed with sand and clay, or gives place to comparitively Kindly soil; and in the vales and lower slopes, irrigated by the numerous streams which are collected on the broad ridge, and coming trottingly to the plains, are belts and expanses of fertility, and agricultural, as well as scenic beauty.

Now it [is] Known that the buildings Called Burghs or Duns were the workmanship of the ancient Scandinavians, and that the Kind of architecture of which they were examples was common to that nation with the Saxons and other northern tribes; and, as it bore the name of Edwin, the most celebrated King of the Northumbrian Saxons, and as it was situated within his territories, which extended from the Humber to the Forth, we may Conclude that he was the builder of Edinshall - In that Case, it must have been erected between the Years 617 and 633, the period of Edwin's reign
This conclusion derives confirmation from other circumstances - In King Edwin's time, the mode of Architecture of his tribe could not have undergone any change, because his father OElla, was the first of his house who settled here, and because in the interim the arts of peace were not Cultivated -- It is recorded, too, that the art of building with Mortar or Cement was not introduced into Britain till after this time, -- the first Saxon buildings of |

Dear Sir,
I am in receipt of your letter of 11th inst and in reply beg to state that the usual and authorised spelling of this Town's name is Duns. The spelling was changed in 1881 from Dunse to Duns.
Yours truly,
