The Rev. Mr.. Murray's Creditors.

A hearing of the creditors of the Rev. w.
II. II. Murray on the appointment of trus-
tee, was held at Guilford, Conn, Sept. 3Oth.
About fifteen creditors were present, or were
represented by lawyers, the aggregate amount
Of their claims being about $4,000. United
States Senator, Orvillc IL. Plat, was present
as representative of three of the leading cred
itors, and Judge Lynde Harrison and John II.
Whiting, of New Haven, were among the other
legal representatives of creditors present.
The Rev. Mr.. Murray was not present at the
meeting of his creditors. He has not visited
his home in Guilford since his financial en-
barrassments became public. Mrs Murray
left her home in Madison this morning for
New York, where she will remain for the win
ter. She has not heard anything from her
husband recently, and does not know where
he is. Miss Hull, Mrs. Murray's sister, and
the others who have been residing on Mr..
Murray's stock-farm in Guilford, are expect
ing to leave there soon, as there appears to
be nothing left for them to live upon. 1t is
said that something very like systematic rob-
berry has been going on upon the farm since
the attachment by creditors. Horses, carria-
ges, harnesses, lap-robes, and various articles
of household furniture, even, which were not
taken by the sherf's officer, have been spir-
tied away. Little doubt is entertained by
those who have had an opportunity to est
mate the value Of the property, that had Mr.
Murray returned at the time his trouble be-
gan he could have satisfied all his creditors,
and settled everything up in good shape
But now there will be only small dividend
left to creditors after the crowd of lawyers and
the trustees have secured their fees Senator

The Irish rent troubles are increasing,
and the English papers view the situation
with not little alarm Even the conser
vatives appear to admit that the tenants
have a good cause, but, unfortunately,
public opinion is not absolute. The land
owners require their rent, and the farmers
cannot pay it. If the proprietors hold to
their rights and compel the delinquents to
take the consequences. in the shape OF
eviction from their holdings, there will be
terrible increase of pauperism, and all
sorts of crime will prevail in Ireland
The good sense of some landlords will
doubtless save them from the folly OF
treating their tenants harshly, but discre-
ton of that sort cannot be expected from
all. The prospect is at present very
gloomy. All the circumstances of the
case point to hard winter for the poor,
and season of lawlessness and crime
Political agitation will thrive, as it always
does when times are hard, and the gov
eminent cannot too speedily adopt meas
ures to protect itself and preserve order.
