IRELAND.

DUBLIN, AUGUST 15.
It seems, after all, that ths names arnonnced
Commi-sioners of the Encumbered Estates Bill are
correct. The arran ;ement is found much fault with.
Baron Richards in a perfectly conscientious judge,
but he is by no means a laborious one. By the new
arrangement, in addition to his present solar), of
3,5001. per annum, he will receive as Commissioner
1,5001. a year more, but hie judicial salary will be
mulcted 400!. per annum, as he will cease goir g
circuit, so that he will have 4,6001. a year. How lie is
to get through all his business puzzles the profes-
sional folk here. It is further to be noted that
Baron Pennefather is infirm and aged—that Bann
Lefroy is extremely old, and that the chief of the
court is far from being robust. Dr. Longfield has
been named a commissioner on account of his being
a tory, as it was pre-arranged that there should be
an Irish liberal, an Irish tory, and one Englishman in
the coma); 'ion. Dr. Lnngfield is ex-fellow P.C.D.,
and is - of considerable - but he

a man accomplishments, but i.
never had any great success at tho bar, and his
capacity in getting through business is greatly
doubted. He is, however, one of the most intelli-
gent of the tory party. The third commissioner, Mr.
Ilar2reave, is an English conveyancer, formerly
Cambridge University—a man of clear and acute
mind, but not of much experience. Many of the bar are
now out of I Lublin, but u far as can be collected, the
nominations have not succeeded in gaining either ap-
probation from the public, or the confidence of the
profession.
The city has become quite deserted again. Tester-
day morning there were between thirty and forty
carriages on the Southern and Western Hallway.
chiefly filled by country folks returning from seeing
the tights of last week. Some of the barristers from
circuit made a desperate rush to the levee and back
again to their assizes.
Mrs. Trollope has been sojourning these kw days
put in It is supposed that Paddle Land is
to be " done " by her in another book.
Great curiosity is felt se to the count., likely to be
pursued by Mr. Duffy in the new F. arum. Of his
ability as a j iurnalist there can be nee question ; and
there is a want of a spirited weeil•j paper here. It
has been rumoured that he will principally address
himself to the land question.

from the time of the Queen's landing at Kingstown
np to the period of her Majssty's departure from that

pleasing exit, of communicating to his Royal Highness, to
the General and Dublin district Staff, and to the Command-
ing offi,ers, efficers, non commissioned °Metro, and privates
eresposing !his garrison, the expression of her Majesty's
most gtoteis.us approbation of all that occurred at the review
on the 9 h inst., as also the gratification 'sped/seed by
Field-Marshal His Royal Highnees Prince Albert on that
occasion ; and Sir Edward Blakeney b'gs new to tinnier the
high seese entertained by himself et the precision and steadi-
ness with which the whole of the movements were eseented
on that day. The Lient.-General has, however, still greater
satisfaction in recording in the etrungest terms the pleasure
he has derived tram receiving so favourable a report from hie
Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge of the 'im-
piety sad soldierlike conduct of the non-eoinaissioned
cams and privates daring her Majesty's visit to Dublin.
It is the intention of the Lieut.-General to avail himself of
the earliest opportunity to bring to the notice of his Grace
the Commander in-Chief the merits of all ranks upon this
memorable occasion.

ILLEGAL MEDICAL PRACTICE.—At the County
Court, Petworth, on Friday last, the case of the Master
Wardens and Society of Apothecaries a William Morris
came on. It was an action brought against defendant for
practising m an apothecary without a certificate, the penalty
being M. Mr. Johnson appeared as counsel for the com-
pp►anny. and Mr. Daintrey, for the defendant, pleaded guilty.
Mr. Johnson said the action we brought under the 5.5 th
lorge 111. The defendant had very wisely pleaded guilty,
and had thrown himself on the mercy of the company,
who were willing to withhold execution unless defendant
again infringed the act of parliament. He (the learned
counsel) had noshing to say against the personal
gualifa•ions of the defendant; he might possess every na-
tural qualification to practise as an apothecary ; but he we
not possessed of the legal qualification; and as the compass,
was formed for the express purpose of protec•ing the public
it was quite necessary that no peen should be allowed to
practise without the requisite certificate. Mr. Johnson then
read the correspondence which had passed between defen-
dant's attorney end the company, and a verdict we given
for plaintiffs, damages 201.—0 n the question of costs being
mooted, his Honour said he bad only power to order such
costs as were allowed by the act; but he thought it would
only be fair that the defendant should reimburse the plain
tiffs for money actually expended, as they had behaved so
handsomely in the matter.—Mr. Daintrey demnrred.—Mr.
Johnson was quite satisfied of the justness of his Honour's
observation, and would not say that the plaintiffs would not
issue execution for so much of the penalty as would *over
expenses actually paid out of pocket.
