band may have lawfully created, or bound himself to create, and to his debts so far as they attach on his freehold estates, and as to estates which he can affect By his will, to any disposition, direction, or declaration made by his will, executed so as to affect freehold estate, and that dower should not attach on any other estate. By this enactment, the artificial distinction between legal and equitable estates will be taken away; on the other band, the subtle contrivances to which we have referred will become unnecessary. We propose that a provision made by will for a wi dow out of personal estate, shall not deprive her of dower, unless the will, expressly or by clear implica tion, shall so direct, but that any devise of freehold estate shall be held to be free from dower, unless the contrary be declared.. And Oat as to estates which the husband might by his will dispose of against his wife's tight to dower, he ',may by his will, duty executed, declare that such right . be discharged without making any further dispo- Minn. And we propose that the enactments shall not c. - lreifieliere with the rule of Courts of Equity, giving wi .4frewe o l emileeence over other legatees for legacies given to•ibrob in satisfaction of dower. And we propose that a declaration in any deed or instrument giving or de vising estates of inheritance, may make the estate of the donee or devisee not subject to his wile's dower; but these enactments not to prevent Courts from en forcing on equitable principles, covenants or agree meats of husbands not to bar the right to dower, nor to !invent the barring of dower by agreement or set demist. or its forfeiture by adultery. Owidg to the inconveniences of the legal remedies for dower, it has only been enforced in modern times by a suit in equity. This species of suit, on account of the complication qi interests in the property, is very frequently tedious wad expensive. We endeavoured to devise some method sr giving to the wife her dower in a form which might put her in possession without legal process; and the mode of a rent-charge and that of math% the wife tenant hi common of the lands out of which she was dowable, occurred to us. Atter anxious consideration, we arrived at the conclusion that no be nefit could be secured to widows by any such cape client, without hazarding injury much more than com mensurate to other parties interested in the lands, and endangering an increase of litigation. We yet hope that some impairment of the compulsory methods of effectuating the right to dower will be found practical. ble. There are some antiquated species of dower. as dower ad *slim ceded. and dower ex asseasu now entirely out of use ; these in substance are very imperfect modes of settlement for barring the common law right to dower; we propose to abolish them. We do not propose at present to extend the altera tions of the Law of Dower to gavelkind lands or bo. rough English lands, or to copyhold or customary lands, as to all which the right to dower or free bench is regulated by a variety of peculiar customs. We deem it expedient to postpone the recommendation of any hotter alteration i f the laws relating to those several tenures until the whole subject shall come under our view. CURTEST. The Law of Curtest' Rives to the surviving husband an wine for his liie in hi% wile's hereditament' in pos. session, helJ loran estate of inheritance by a legal title of which there was actual seisin, if the nature of the property atiMitted of actual seisin, otherwise seisin in law, or by an equitable title, and to which there was any issue born during the marriage which might by pos. sibtlity inheitt. It is in many particulars analoros to the Law of Dan er I but owing to the circumstance that married women cannot alien their estates without the concur rence of their husbands, and that the husbands can at any time discharge the estate from their right of curtest', this right is tree hom the principal inconveniences at tending the tight to dower, and it bas not during a long period been treated by the law with the same disfavour, ti=er subjected to any similar restrictions or evasions. Upon the establishment of equitable estates subae-' vent to the Statute of Uses they were held subject to curtesy, though not to dower. The present state of the Law of Cortesy has given rise to few, if any, complaints, and there is no very strung season toe altering it. A strict rule of great antiquity, however, makes cutesy not attach on legal estates admitting . of seisin in fact, where the husband did not obtain scan in fact during the covertose. That rule can now very rarely come into operation, because the possession of tenants for years gives a seisin in fact to the rightful landlord, and because the rule does not apply to equitable estates. When it does come into operation, it takes pasties by surprise and is felt as a hardship: we think that it should be abrogated; the trecessii y, too, of clothing the property with any seisin, in order to let in the curtesy. is. we think, unreason. able; and we are of' opinion that the same right of pos. session should suffice to entitle the husband to curtesy as may suffice to entitle the . ife to dower. Again, the rule which makes the birth of issue neces. sari to entitle the husband to an estate by curtesy set ms to have been founded on technical principles of feudal tenure now wholly obsolete. The husband. after birth of heritable issue by him, was admitted to perform ser vices to the lord and to take his place among the tenants to the seienory, as representing the land in a way not permitsed betuse the birth .ot such issue. It appears to be alien from modern habits, by the eircunaltance which we think established by the evidence of practitioners, that in modern settlements of the real property of an intended wife, the life estate very cons morily given to the husband is never made to depend on the birth of heritable issue. It seems expedient to abo lish the rule. As it appears unreasonable that the right to curtesy should depend on the birth of issue capable of inherit ing ; so, on the other hand, if the law were to be ;low first introduced, it would scarcely be thought reason able or expedient. that where an estate has descended on a married woman, having issue by a former mar• :lege. perhaps otherwise wholly unprovided for, sad to which the estate would otherwise descend, the surviving husband, who is under no legal obligation to suppor t such issue, should take for his life the whole property to which such issue is inheritable. We propose, therefore, as some improvement of this part of the law, that curtesy should attach on the estates of inheritance, legal and beneficial, or beneficial only, to which the husband was entitled in possession in right of the deceased wife, although there may have been no issue of the marriage; and, on the other band, that it should be restricted to an undivided moiety of the estate, whenever and so far as. but for the husband's curtesy it wonla immediately descend to the issue of the wife by a former marriage. We do not propose at present to extend these altera tions of the law to grivelkind lands or borough English land, or to copiholtf or customary linds, for the reason assigned with respect to dower or free bench in the same species of property.—(To mama of).

A Chapter of the Most Noble Order of the Garter was afterwards held, at which Lord ASUBLIANUAM was invested with the insignia of the Order. This d.i: We have this day received important news from the theatre of war, by way of St. Petersburgh. The account being a Russian one, must be received with necessary caution ; but that another general engagement has taken place et Paravadi is certain. At St. Petersburg)), on the 10th of June, detailed accounts wen received of a victorious engagement near Paravadi, in which the GRAND Vratita, at the head of numerous troops, was defeated by General Rout. Ge neral ROTH remained master of the field of battle, and took 400 pair of colours, which General Drumm' has sent to the Emperor. The Turks left above 9000 killed and a great number of horses on the field. The deter- mination and valour with which both sides fought was such, that only one mullah and 45 men were taken pri soners. The loss of the Russians was 486 men, IS Officers, one Staff Officer, and Major General UNDID killed ; and one Colonel, two Lieutenant Colonels, two Staff Officers. 26 Officers, and 596 privates wounded. Since Silistria was invested nothing of importance has occurred there. In a trifling sally of the Turks, General Prince Paosonowszt was killed by a cannon ball. Some new batteries have been erected, and the bridge over the great arm of the Danube is completed ; and the Russian communication over the small arm of the Danube, is said to be maintaiaard by rafts. Lieut.- General Kama has opened the road from Silistria to Schumla, and on the 19th of May opened a com munication with the corps s f General ROTII. He sends the authentic intelligence thdt the GRAND Vain, confounded at the heroic-resistance of so small a corps, bad retreated to Schumla. The Turkish fleet consisted of five ships of the line, one frigate. and four corvettes; of which one ship of the line, two frigates, and one corvette, put out to sea on the 18th of May, and chased one of the Russian cruisers withr•ut success for ten miles. These Russian cruisers ate said ti) have captured sin merchantmen, notwithstanding the vigor ous resistance of the crews, and of the inhabitants of the coast, in the bay of Keepen, and destroyed eight others off port Schtll. There are letters in town this morning from Vienne, dated the 11 th ; but in these we have no account of the desperate engagement spoken of above—the news of whict was conveyed by the steam boat to Lubeck. The Vienna letter s set forth that, during the hot months, the Russians were expected to confine themselves to the siege of SU:ilia and Giu►geivo, and that not till Sep tember were the grand offensive operations expected to take place. It is adJed, that immense reinforcements were joining the Russians from the interior ; and that the army is shortly to be reviewed by the Emperor in person. From the Frontiers of Turkey accounts have also been received this day, in which it is admitted that a considerable landing had been threatened by the Rus sians at Trebisonde, to destroy the arsenal of that place; and that the Turks along the coast were kept in con tinual fear. If we are to believe the accounts in the Brussels and German Papers, inserted in our first page, the Greeks have at last recaptured the important fortress of Miss*. longhi. These is a deep interest about the fate of this place, for many reasons; and the carnage which has taken place in attacking and defending it, shows that much importance has invariably been attached to its pos session by either. and both of the contending parties. It was first taken from the Turks in 1821, and defended, in the following year, by Prince MAVROCOADATO, against a large Turkish force, which had finally been obliged to raise the siege, and retreat in disorder. In twelve months afterwards, it became the seat of Government for Western Greece. and received within its walls that martyr of tha Greek cause, our illus- trious countryman, Lotd Bynon, who conferred upon it a melancholy interest by his death in the Spring of 1824. Some months after his Lordship's death, the siege of the fortress was renewed by the Tusks, who assembled round its walls a large force% from Al bania; but the Greeks defended it till the beginning of 1826, when the Mussulmen were reinforced by a strong , body of Egyptians under laaAlllll. Since that time it has remained in the possession of the Turks till the date of the present news; and should the Greeks now succeed in recapturing Athens, they will be in possession of nearly the whole territory within the boundary line of Volo and Arta, described in the Protocol of the Allied Powers, published last week. American Papers to the 24th Ult. were received lyesterday, in which mention is made of the death of Governor JAY, in the 84th year of his age. Mr. MARIBOII is now the sole 'waiving Member of the Convention and Legislature which formed the Constitu tion of the United States in 1777. The Washington Journals inform us that the University of Lexington was entirely destroyed by fire on she 9th of M 47. — The servant employed by the Institution, who was engaged in the upper part of the building in blacking shoes, fell asleep, and it is supposed the fire was communicated from a candle he left burning. The Journal of Commerce states that, " Mr. Wit.ox, the Gentleman who was dispatched to the United States l with necessary documents fcr the arrest of Ilowt.atin Sraestanion, had received orders horn the COMM ...
