• DUBLIN, JULY 13.
Fourteen estates were disposed of yesterday in the
Incumbered Estates Court, being the largest number
put up for competition on any one day since the
opening of the court ; and it may be said, also, that
on no day did the prices obtained range in genera' at
GO high a rate. Among the estates sold yesterday
were those of two Irish noblemen, the Eail of Ak -
borough and Lord Oranmore—the former consistiug
of lands in the counties of Sligo, heitrint, and W•
ford, and of house property in New Ross and Dub-
lin, and the latter of some lands in the county of
Galway. The Aldborough estate brought, on an
average, 25 years purchase, and Lord Oratimere's
estate 27! years' purchase. Two estates in Tipperary
fetched 27! and 22 !, years' purchase ; one in Ferma-
nagh went at 26 i• years' purchase ; and a small estate
in Mayo belonging to Mr. T. Pager, of the net yearly
value of 141/., was sold for 5,910/., or at the rate of
42 years' put chase. The gross amount of the dey's
saes was only 81,155!, the estates being in geutral

As far as accounts have yet been received, the

The appearance which present the Met Vet, up to the
present (one o'cli.ck a.m.), indicate that the Oringen.to,
takinx, the advice of those whom t 1.4 y look ua to at supe-
riors and guides, will permit the annivf nary t.i pass overt
without any manifestations which the law forbids, ..nd
which reason and sound sense callow.. out condemr. The
Haman catholic. have also been addressed publicly, mid re-
commended to practise f irbearaiice. The in..g,:istratcs had
a conference yesterday, at which straggements were made
for preserving the peace, should any attempts be turtle to
violate it during the day. We are not aware that any rat-
dition has been made to the cnnttabulary force of this sta-
tion ; and we believe that in case of a riot, the tuititary will
be promptly called upon to eome out. It is *tat. d that this
constabulary at the maimed statfeac, where disturb.ft ces
were apprehended, have been strengthened by the drdt ins
of a few glistabies to each station. Oa Saturday nfglit
there were drum. and fife. heard in the locality of Sandy-
row, some cries also were raised; but the principal
actor* were children. Last night some shelf', it is s .id,
were fired. It is to be hop, it, however, that the pre-
caution, taken will be i•tifficient to preserve the Uncoil:4
which prevails.

The Newry and I)undalk papers, published late
last evening, also represent matters as perfectly
quiet.
