SALES IN THE ENCUMBERED COURT.
DUBLIN, SATURDAY.--One large property, con-
sisting of the estates of Mr. Edward Deane Free-
rim, situate in the counties of Cork, Limerick,
Kerry, and Tipperary, comprising fee-
simples and
leaseho!d interests and lay impropriate tithes, was
offered for sale yesterday. The tithes, divided into
twenty-five lots, sold to small capitalists, at rates
varying from ten to fifteen years' purchase. The
poor-rates in those districts, for which tithe property
is charged its full proportion, is generally very
heavy, being in most cases from 4s. to ss. Bd., and in
one instance as high as 7s. in the pound on the valua-
tion. In others, however, the charge for the poor
does not exceed ls. 6d. in the pound.
The fee-simple of the lands of Ahane and Klock-
avinny, situate in the barony of Traghananack-
my, county of Kerry, containing 1,753 statute
acres, producing a rent as at present let of
1851. 103. 9d., were sold in two lots at twenty-one
years' purchase each ; but the rents are low, the leases
being made many years since. On the poor-rate valu-
ation, however, the rates of purchase are not more
than ten years for one and thirteen years for the
other lot.

Mr. James Pim, of the firm of Stewart, Pim, Kin-
caid, and Co., offered 21,5001. for the Cork estate
called Castlecor, containing 1,733 statute acres, which,
according to the present letting and estimated value,
is worth 1,4401. per annum. There is a fine family
mansion on this estate, in perfect order, and the
lands are stated to be in high cultivation and judi-
ciously planted. The offer of Mr. Pim was considered
inadequate, and the sale was ordered to stand ad-
journed. Commissioner Longfield, however, sug-
gested to Mr. Pim that if he would attend in
contract,chamber
and make an offer for the estate by private
the Commissioners would entertain his offer, as
they were aware he represented capitalists to a large
extent.

The sum realised by the sales effected yesterday
was 16,0201.

DEMI, T Ro
8, SERGEANTe COURT.—On
TRT.oaSaturday,
Thomsett, a pilot, Mr. Ssrgood, the barrister, made an appli-
cation to the Insolvent Debtors' Court for his discharge from
Whitecross-street prison, where he had been committed by
Mr. Sergeant Manning, as judge of the Whitechapel county
court. This was another instance in which the Learned
Judge had treated with contempt the process of this court.
The insolvent petitioned this cocourton the 3d December, and
on the 15th of the same month a judgment summons was is
sued from the Whitechapel county court for the insolvent's
attendance. On the 4th January instant, the insolvent was
heard by this court, and to-day ;Saturday) was appointed for
the consideration of the final order, and the protection was
renewed. The insolvent attended at the county court on
Tuesday last, and produced the order of protection. The
judge took no notice of the protection and ordered his com-
mitment for twenty days, and he was at once taken to White-
cross-street prison, where he must remain unless this court
interfered. The court had issued a warrant for his attend-
ance, and be was now brought up in distody. Mr. Sargood
asked his immediate liberation, and said the county court
judge had treated this court with contempt. Mr. Commis-
sioner Philips, on the authority of a case (re William Sy-
mons) heard before Mr. Commissioner Law, was of opinion
that the insolvent was entitled to his discharge, and he should
issue his warrant to the gaoler, nothwithstanding the com-
mitment by the county court. The insolvent said he showed
the order of protection to the officer and to the judge. A
special warrant was made out, and the man discharged from
prison.
