IRELAND.

On Friday evening, Mr. Wm John O'Connell
reached Tralee from Killarney, to deliver a message
on the part of his friend and relative, Daniel O'Con-
nell, Esq., second son of Captain O'Connell. It
appears that the adverse party, Thomas Trant,Esq.
of Dingle, had used strong language towards the
other. Mr. William John O'Connell was referred
by Mr. Trant to James Magill, Esq., who appointed
Oakpark, near Tralee, as the place of meeting.
Mr. Magill, however, being informed that the
police were on the alert, called on Mr. William
John O'Connell that night at eleven o'clock,
for the permission to change the ground, to which
he immediately consented. The ground now cho-
sen was Lower Cannon, in an opposite direc-
tion from Oakpark, where the parties were to de-
termine their quarrel at five next morning. They
met accordingly ; but were chased by the police,
horse and foot. Mr. Trant was arrested, but the
Messrs. O'Connell escaped, after a run of two miles
and a half across a marshy country. Mr. William
John O'Connell, returning by a short route, pro-
ceeded to Abbeyfeale Bridge, in order that the affair
should terminate in the county of Limerick. Here
he was arrested by a Magistrate, and having given
bail, advanced beyond Abbeyfeale Bridge, when
both gentlemen were at length placed on their
ground. The first shot being exchanged, Sandford
Thomson, Esq., of Castle Island, the friend of
Mr. Trans, asked Mr. O'Connell if they were
satisfied ? He answered " Certainly not." A second
pistol was then handed, and discharged ; and Mr.
Thompson again inquired if the Messieurs O'Con-
nell were satisfied. Mr. W.J. O'Connell said, " Cer-
tainly not ;" at the same time placing a third loaded
pistol in the hands of his friend. Mr. Thompson
remonstrated upon this; but Mr. O'Connell's reply
was, " I will keep my friend on the ground until
to-morrow if a hit do not take place, or you make an
apology; and although I admit it is optional with
you to remove your principal, I have no notion of
removing mine. Mr. Thompson hereupon removed
his friend, and thus the matter terminated, without
any recorw,iliation taking place. This is, we learn,
the third affair these gentlemen have had, for two
of which Mr. Trant made apologies.
Tuesday a division of the King's Dragoon Guards
marched from Milt° wn Malbay, couaty of Clare, to
Dublin. This movement sustains the impression
that tranquillity is progressing in this county.—

LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS .)
COURT OF CHANCERY.
•
IN THE MATTER OF HURST AND CO., BADSRUPTB.
This matter stood to be disposed of on the subject of
costs, but his Lordship was unable to get rid of it this
morning, in consequence of not being able at the moment
to refer to a note he had made at the time the matter way
argued.

IN THE MATTER OF DILWORTH, A BANKRUPT.
This also stood for a decision as to the costs. His Lord.
ship said he had consulted with his Honour, from whom
the matter had come on an appeal, and on the whole, hav-
ing confirmed his Honour's decision on the main question.
he felt bound to give costs against the petitioner, both of
the original and supplemental petitions.
The SOLICITOR_GENERAL, Mr. RosE, and Mr. MoN-
TAGUE, endeavoured to resist this decision. They said,
the ground on which his Lordship hail decided the princi-
pal question in the bankruptcy was not that ground on
which the Vice-Chancellor had proceeded.
His LORDSHIP considered the point as far as it regarded
special pleading clear as A. B. C. He bad consulted
the Common-law Judges upon it, who entirely concurred
in his view of it; therefore, the parties ought not to have
appealed ; Counsel ought not to have advised them to ap-
peal, when they must, or ought to have been, aware that
the judgment below was right, though it even might have
been formed upon wrong reasoning. A wrong reason for
a right judgment was not to be considered as a ground of
appeal.
_

AIONTAGUE said he valued one word stated in open
Court by a Learned Judge, more than a thousand that
might pass between such high characters in private and
out of Court. So far from this being a clear point on the
special pleading, he had gone both into the Courts of
King's Bench and Common Pleas for information, and the
result of his researches was this—that Mr. Pollock had
told him one thing, and Mr. Serjeant Wilde another ;
that Mr. Justice Alderson had stated one fact in confir-
(nation of Mr. Pollock's opinion, and Mr. Blake one in
confirmation of Mr. Serjeant Wilde's.
The LORD CHANCELLOR :observed that he could not
now alter his opinion ; he had formed his judgment after
considerable doubt, but it was necessary there should be
an end to the thing sometime.
