SATVADAT.
IN TUE MATTI& Or Till ESTATE Or JOAN O'CONNELL,

Mr. Decry, Q.C., applied to have the decision of Mr.
Commissioner liargreave, with reference to a claim for •
lien preferred by his client, Mr. T. W. Murphy, set aside,
and said claim allowed. Counsel stated that Mr. Murphy
had acted as solicitor for Mr. John O'Connell and Mr. 3lor-
pan J. O'Connell on various occasions, and that the priscnt
claim was a hen for costs incurred by his client while con-
ducting elections, and other matters for the benefit of those
gentlemen. Mr. Deasy contended that the lien should be
Taid out of the funds arising from the sale of the property.
he amount of the claim was 3,0001.
Mr. Rogers, on the other side, submitted th it Mr. Murphy
bad forfeited his lien by taking a bond for 3,0001., from the
Messrs. O'Connell, and could nut, therefore, be allowed to
fall back on his original claim.
The court were of opinion that the ruling of Mr. Commis-
sioner llargreave should be confirmed with costs, to be paid
out of the estate.

GREECE.

Our Path c ndent writes:
I have received from a private source an important
piece of intelligence from Greece. The Grand
Chamberlain, General Grivas, who was supposed to
occupy at the court of Athens a similar position to
that which was held by General Serrano at the court
of Madrid, has been dismissed from office. It is well
known that King Otho is a mere cypher, and that
affairs of importance were settled by the
counsels of the Queen, who is of an ambitious
and domineering temper. General Grivas, being'
I all-powerful with the Queen, to whom his office gave
him access at pleasure, thus became virtually dicta-
tor ; and no ministers who refused to be his creatures
could hope to remain long in office. To struggle with
this extra-constitutional influence of Grivas was one
of the hardest tasks of Lord Palmerston and Mr.
Wyse in the recent dispute with Greece; and many
were the attempts made, in vain, to oust the powerful
grand chamberlain. By what means tb;s result has
been now obtained is, as yet, a mystery, as the news
has been received by telegraph, and is dated on the
22nd, from Athens. It is added that General Grivas
has been appointed to command the troops on the
Turkish frontier.

IN RE CLAIIKr.
Lord Justice Lord Cr.inworth, referring to this cm:, said
the court, without meaning to decide or give any opinion
upon the proper order with respect to costs in every case
where the judges of the Court of Appeal might differ, had
come to the conclusion in the present case that the costa
should follow the event of the appeal. The appeal, there-
fore, having been dismissed would be so with costs. Al-
though he (Lord Cranwoeth) had differed from his learned
brother as to the propriety of the assistance of a court of
law, he haul not done so as to the merits of the case as they
, stood at present disclosed by the evidence ; on the contrary,
were he sitting upon that evidence as a juryman, his opi-
nion as to its effect would coincide with that of the court
below.

GASTON v. FILAXKtaI.—SEPAIIATII ESTATE.—CONTRACT
OF MARRIED WO/SVC.
This appeal was partly beard on Monday, and the facts
stated in the Espress of the following day. The point'
was briefly this : A married woman having separate pro-
perty, and who was living apart from her husband, made an
agreement to take the lease of a dwelling-house. Vice-
Chancellor Knight Bruce held that to the extent of her
separate property site was liable to pay the rent.
Mr. Serengeti (with him Mr. Wright) was now heard for
the defendant. The evident:, he contended, established
that there had been ao concluded agreement, or no agree-
ment signed by her or her solicitor or agent, and that the
eorrespondence between the respective solieiton of the plain-
tiff and defendant showed that it Will not intended that the
defendant should become tenant of the house except she
were able to procure her trustee or some other person to
become liable for the rent and covenants in the prepared
lease ; and, supposing the agreement were established, yet
that the suit was substantially one for specific performance,
although the bill did nut in terms pray such relief, and that
there had not been any instance of the court decreeing a
specific performance rf a contract against a married woman.
The Lord Chancellor took time to consider his judgment.

THE EARL OF LONBDALI o. THI COUNT Dz ZICHT

This was a case arising out of the will of the late Mar-
quis of Hertford. By one of the codicils to his will, the
marquis bey. athed, amongst other legacies, to the Countess
De Ziehy, then Charlotte Leopolinda Strachan, a leasehold '
villa in Regent's l'urk. The villa was held of the crown at I
a rent of 2101., and the covenants of the lease required that
the lessee or his representatives should insure the property.
The legacies in question were the subject of a lengthened
litigation. At length a eomprombe was entered into, and
the Master drew up a report in accordance with it, which
was made an order of the court. By this order 7,9111. was
to be invested in the funds, out of which the rents and
rates were to be paid, but the dividends were not sufficient
for that purpose, and the executors had been required to
rglyie insurance, which they had dune, and also the
duty. The question was, whether by the terms of
the compromise the countess was liable to pay the pre-
miums fur the insurance or the executors out of the residue
of the personal estate ? The executors had effected an in-
surance, as had also Sir 8.. Vivian, who occupied the house
as tenant to the countess, and there was another question
as to whether the defendant was chargeable with the legacy
duty on her life interest in the 8,0001.
Mr. Roundel Palmer and Mr. Sehomberg addressed the
court on the part of the plaintiff, and Mr. ltoupell and Mr.
Tripp for the defendant.
His Honour directed a decree to issue that the plain-
tiff is entitled to relief ou both the points.

Mr. Shillibeer, the well-known proprietor of funeral car-
riages, moved this morning, in person, for a rule calling
Ws the Commissioners of Island Revenue to show cause
why they refused to settle a question connected with the
taxation upon hearses and mourning couches. Mr. Shilli-
beer stated that, having had a disagreement with the corn-
Missioners as to the amount of duty payable on funeral car-
riages, they consented to a case being drawn up for the
decision of two ofthe puisne judges, in a-oordance with
the provisions of the statute. A case wu accordingly sub-
mitted to two of the judges, who decided against Mr. Slid-
libeer, and the ground en which he made the present
application was that the case bad been incorrectly stated.
The Lord Chief liarou—Do you apply under any act of
parliament, or on the ground of any general jurisdiction
which we may be supposed to pawass?
Mr. Shillibeer—l cannot say that I do, but the decision is
so extraordiniu7, that I feel compelled to ask your lordships
lobar the case in full court.
Mr. Baron Parke—We have no jurisdiction whatever in
the matter. The art of parliament provides, when a party
is dissatisfied, that he must lay his case before two of the
palms judges, who meet three times a year, to decide
such questions, and there is no appeal from their &vi-
sion. The only course you can adopt, Mr. Shillibeer,
is, when the nest charge fur taxation is made, to appeal
again, sad then to hare the case properly stated.
Mr. Shillibeer said he wished to compel the commis-
sioners to refund the overcharges they had improperly made
during the last ten years.
Mr. Baron Parke—l am afraid you will find some diffi-
culty in doing that.
The Lord Chief Baron—Ton had better go before a com-
mittee of supply in the House of Commons. (Laughter.)
Mr. Bbillibeer replied that he was afraid thus was no

hope in that quartei.
Mr. Baron Alderson—We can give you we assistanoe,
ezeept our advice. The west time that you appeal apply
to the commisvioners to have the ease correctly stated.
Mr. Bhillibeer said he had applied to the commissioners
to have the case stated a second time, end they had refused
to comply with his request.
Mr. Baron Alderson-1 think it will be • VON injustice
if thy do not grant your application, if you have any addi-
Mesa facts to state.
Mr. ehillibeer thanked his lordship, sad withdrew.

THAMES.

Robert Sheen, police-constable. 82 K, appeared to a sum-
mons to show cause why he should not maintain his illegiti-
mate child, by Fanny Watson, a young woman, residing
at New-alley, Three Colt-street, Limehouse. The girl
swore that the defendant was the father of the child,
which was born On the 22nd of September. She used to
meet him at night in the West India-road.
Mr. Yardley said it was right to tell the complainant
that by a recent act of parliament she could if she liked
have the defendant examined.
Mr. Pelham contended that there was an exception when
the case was punishable summarily.
Mr. Yardley—This case is not punishable summarily.
' Mr. Pelham—lf an order is made, and be does not pay
, the money, you can send him to gaol.
Mr. Yardley—Yes ; but there must be a hearing before
an order is made. I sec no reason why there should be
an exception in these cases, nor; why the whole truth
should not be got at. This act will be most usefully applied
in such cases as these. .

Mrs. Hambridge, crimplainant'e aunt, proved seeing
them walking together frequently.
Tho defendant was then sworn. He denied that the
child was his, or that he had had any connexion with com-
plainant.
Mr. Yardley asked him a second time. He again denied
it, and the summons was dismissed.

All who have ever resided in Hanover attest to the result
—his decided popularity ; and perhaps the rejoicings in his
capital on his successive birthdays were as genuine tributes
of good will as sovereign ever received from subjects. This
may indicate that he ass in same measure the impulsive
creature of geographical circumstances —full of faults in
England, and of virtues in Hanover; and as the English
part of his story is a story entirely of the pest, without any
bearing on the present, and without any moral for the
future, we may judge him lightly.
George Frederick, only pm, and only surviving child of
the deceased, succeeds to the throne of Hanover. The pre.
tent King's blindness has suggested the precaution of
swearing in twelve counsellors, who, to attend in rotation
of two., will have to witness and verify all the state docu-

MONEY MARKET.

THIS DAY.

The extreme_point of the late rise was again
touched in the English stock market at the com-
mencement of business this morning, an impres-
sion being entertained in some quarters that
a reduction in the minimum discount rate •
of the Bank of England at the weekly board
I meeting to-day was by no means improbable. The I
court, however, having broken up without the an-
nouncement of any such step having been adopted,
and reports being current of a contemplated Prussian
railway loan to be partially raised in this market,
prices have become flatter, and quotations now rule
to I per cent. below those of yesterday afternoon.
Consols, which closed yesterday 99 to 1 both for
money and account, have last been sold at 981 for
cash, for which they are now called 981 to

A failure has been declared to-day, that of a young
man well connected, who has suffered by a variety
of speculations. The amount is small.

small, but the full quotations have ruled. The report
of the transactions as officially given is: Exchequer
Bills of the several descriptions, 525. to 535. prem.
In India Bonds no dealings are reported.
The foreign stock market is firm for most descrip-
tions with rising rates for some, which were lately
in less request. Brazilian Bonds have reached 935.
to 931, and Sardinian Bonds are decidedly better.

THE WATER CONEWITIEE.—IrCgterttIy, flag cent-
mince re-assembled fur the last time. Paso nt : Sir Janos

Ellis, and Mr. Sanders. The room WWI cleared, and the
committee deliberated for about half an 11,111 r, awl ,m
admission of the public, the right hon. chairman said ; the
committee have come to the following resolution --that the
preamble of the Metropolis Water Bill was read, and the
committee came to the unanimous decision that the pre-
, amble of the bill was not proved. With regard to tie other
bills before us, the committee has not had noes to bear any
evidence with respect to them, and ennocquesdiy they 1...;ve
come to no decision with respect to their preambles. You
know very well that at the present period of the sestina they
must die a natural death, but the house has come to a 'hi
sion by which the parties may, should they think lit,
come to parliament next session and revive these bills, by
renewing their notices in the usual way. The committee
have comae to the further resolution, that the chairman be
directed to report the minutes of evidence to the house. the
committee then broke up 'shortly after one We.swk. The
proceedings were marked by the total absence of the usual
twenty learned counsel, who throughout the thirty-one days'
sitting of the committee and the examination of about fifty
witnesses were regular in attendance. This was understood
to be accounted for by a previous intimation from the corn.
mince that counsel would nut be required. A general feel-
ing of satisfaction appeared to prevail amongst the parties
interested at the extreme attention the members of the com-
mittee generally throughout the protracted inquiry had paid
to its progress, and more particularly with the matter!) nay
in which the hon. chairman had discharged the duties of
that office. It is calculated that the inqutry cannot have
coot the water companies less than 30,0151/., awl the govern-
ment about half that amount.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Aro. 2.
The CuLgrrc Gazeite announces that the privi-
leged landed proprietors of the l'russian pruritic who are
really noble, are getting up an agitation among th, ir order
to this effect, six.: That the government should be moved
to pass a law, that the feudal posse.sions at present pos.
sessed by persons not noble should be sold in future to none
but noble persons ; aml that none but the nubility, in fact, i
should be held capable in future of holding this species of ,
landed property. But the selling of this property is not, the
journal referred to remarks, the only difficulty; the buying
of it is a still greater one; for there are few of the nobility
who have any superfluous cash. To meet this hindrance
however, it is proposed that a fund should be collected to
enable the nobility to re-purchase property which has passed
out of their hands. Whence is this fund to come? It is
not said ; but no doubt contributions to a large amount,
should the project take effect, would be expected from the
government.
Letters from Vienna say that a '. grand consult" was
held, which lasted till midnight. at the Ministry of
Finances, in that capital, on the 30th ult. The finance
operations now in contemplation were the subject of the
deliberations. The Minister of Finances, it is said, has
determined to postpone a further loan till September. Vie

improvement by the rate of exchange is mentioned as his
motive. The sum to he raised will at most amount to
100 million florins. Had the loan taken place it would
have had but little effect in the money market, as indeed it
his been there already anticipated. Under any supposition
it could nut have overtopped the 70 millions, and would
therefore have hail no tendency to raise the value of paper.
Without confidence in the government and in tho uprirlit-
ness of its intentions, coin, hidden or sent abroad, will not
again make its appearance in Austria. But from the cabi-
net of Vienna nut the slightest step in this direction has
been taken ; quite the contrary•. Its power is nevertheless
unlimited.
