DUBLIN, THIIRSDAY BtreRNING.
THE PORTARLINGTON ESTATES.
A residue of the vast estates of the Earl of Portarling-
ton, situate in the Queen's county, is to be sold by order
of the Court in Efeeriettri-street on Tuesday the 27th of
May next. The net rental of the lands to be disposed of
is olese upon 1,200/. a-year. The agency of this property
it was that, in famillea- phrase, first put the late John
Sadleir upon his t
ter sessions -* p ,
g
..ctorney to a magnate among Irish land
and transferred him from a uar-
ahg; entg• How well he discharged the trust reposed in
may one day or another be brought to light among
other revelations connected with his marvellous career
in Ireland. The termination of the agency upon the
estates being brought into the Encumbered Court was
at the time a heavy pecuniary loss to Mr. Sadleir,
but, as after events proved, it was not long before he
attained a still higher position than a mere agent, and
a much wider field for the scope of his ill-applied
abilities.

THE IRISH JUDICIAL BENCH.
The grand jury of the county of Galway have pre-
sented their address to the Lord Chief Justice Lefroy.
Irrespective of the compliment thus paid on a circuit
with which his lordship has no professional connection,
the address is remarkable, as containing the signatures
of no less than 11 Roman Catholic gentlemen, including
the two county representatives and one of the borough
members, Mr. Anthony O'Flaherty.

THE UNITED SERVICE CLUB.
The Lord-Lieutenant honoured this club with a visit
on Wednesday. Upon entering the coffee-room his Ex-
cellency observed Lieut. (Reoan) Massy, of the 19th
Regiment, who has jnst arrived from the Crimea, and is
now quite a military lion in Dublin. Lord Carlisle con-
versed with the young officer in his usual affable man-
ner, and expressed a warm interest in his progress to-
wards recovery from the wounds reelived on the me-
morable Bth of Sept., 1855.

GREAT GLOBE, LEICESTER-SQUARE.—At the Globe
valuable information is continually furnished to the
public. Last year we could watch the siege operations
on the plateau of Sebastopol ; and Cronstadt and Swea-
borg were made familiar to all our stay at-homes ; and
on Easter Monday the visitor can travel from England
to the Crimea. A large diorama has been painted by
Mr. Marshall, and the route out and home will be
through the most picturesque and interesting capitals
of Europe. Amongst the views are those of Hamburg,
Berlin, Dresden, krague, Ratisbon, Vienna, Pestb,
Buda, and the line of the Danube, to Balaklava and
Constantinople. The home route will be up the Ad-
riatic to Rome, Venice, the Lag o Maggiore, across
the Alps by Monte Rosa, the
gall eries of Iselin and
Gond°, Interlachen, the Jungfrau, C leneva, and up the
Rhine to Cologne and Dover. The cc illection of Russian
arms, dresses, pictures, and trophies, t. 'IC military gallery
of the armies of Europe, the models of the siege works of
Sebastopol, Sweaborg, Cronstadt, an d the Baltic, will
be wade doubly interesting by the pic, orial representa-
tions of the Eel,/ diorama ; whilst the g meat Model of the
Earth, serves not only to show the spc
tercet, but the world itself in relation to 171
it, 'IA spots of in-
tercet, events
of our age. et‘
