APPROACHLNIG MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.--A matri-
monial alliance will shortly. take place between the
Lady Emily de Burgh, the beautiful and accomplished
daughter of the Marquis of Clanricarde, and Viscount
Dungarvan, grandson and heir apparent of the Earl of
Cork and On•ery.
COURT OF CHANCERY.—It appears that the total held
on behalf of suitors in the Court of Chancery of the va-
rious petty stocks now about to be paid off or converted
is 469,000/. This amount the Lord Chancellor, by a
recent order, directed to be converted into the 1101.
per Cent. Stock, except in instances where the parties
interested might signify an opposite desire before the
time at which the power of choice will cease. Subse-
quently, however, the fall in prices has rendered the ad-
vanta,ve of accepting stock instead of money less certain,
and the Chancellor, therefore, now intends to postpone
his final decisiori until the latest period—namely, to-mor-
row, the 3d inst.
REGENT'S CANAL COMPANY.—The dividend declared
at the meeting of this company, held yesterday, was Bs.
per share, and the report was adopted. The traffic is
stated to have shown a' steady increase, the amount
during the last six months having reached 639,242 ton-
nage. The receipts from tolls was 20,7431., leaving a
profit of 11,4661., showing an improvement upon the
preceding half-year of 1,2501. After paying the pro-
posed dividend and carrying 5731. to the reserve fund, a
balance will remain of 1251. . _
