THE Rowland Will. Casa LEGACY OF THIRTY
FIVE MILLION DoIIARS.-A Boston correspondence
of the n. \. Tribune says: The famous Rowland
Will Case. which has proved a profitable one To the
great equity lawyers, if not TO the parties more di-
rectly interested, has just assumed a new aspect
which makes it a topic of interest in this section, by
the reported death OF the complainant, Mrs. Edward
III. Green nee Miss Hattie III. Robinson, in Paris,
from fever incidental to childbirth. 1t is said her
offspring is living. and if he or she lives to attain.
the age of p years an enormous fortune viii be in
waiting. The case has been so long in court, and
the documents concerning it have accumulated to
such an extent that it has been compared to the
Schleswig- Holstein question. which only one man
ever understood and he unfortunately died after he
had thoroughly informed himself on the subject.
From a tangled mass OF testimony and arguments it
appears that Edward NJ. Robinson, the father of
Hattie, who died in June, 1860, left a fortune of
Sc. 1000. 900, the whole of which, with the exception
of $50. 900 in legacies to servants and friends went
to her. Her aunt. Sylvia Ann Rowland. by the
contested will. left Hattie SLIGO, 900, which her
heir will get in any event, whether the present suit
is won or lost. If lost. the whole of the aunt's for
tune, nearly 50. 10000 will go to the heir. thus
making a total of $500, 900. AS money at interest
doubles every ten years or so, this infant. if it lives
to be q years of age, will be worth $50. 10000 e0.

Down, down liko pale leaf dropping

Quietly, quietly.

All year round in her beauty
She d1clt on the trce-top high;
She danced in the summer brcczes,
She laughed to the summer sky.

senator declared to-day in the presence of
several friends that he didn't know which
would do the Republican party the most
injury. the conviction or tine acquittal of
the President; and another expressed
openly the opinion that the impeachment
movement would lose the Republican
party the States of New Hampshire and
Connecticut. A northern senator, with
other gentlemen who are understood to
control in some measure the operations of
Wall street, have been telegraphing that
the impeachment scheme would fail, and
such is really the general impression in
