Mr. Samuel Laing, M.P. for the Wick Burghs, and Secretary of the Treasury...has just accepted the seat at the Indian Council in Calcutta...[He] was for many years a private (mathematical) tutor of the highest class in Cambridge. He was called to the Bar by the Hon.

In 1852 he became chairman of the Crystal Palace Company. He has been engaged in the direction of the Grand Central and Grand Junction Railways in France; of the Antwerp and Rotterdam and Simbart lines in Holland; and the Great Western Railway of Canada...He was again returned for the Wick Burghs in 1859, and, on Lord Palmerston's accession to office, was appointed Secretary to the Treasury'.
