Mr. Murphy succeeds the late Mr. Trail Hall as Assistant-Bar-
rister for Cavan ; Mr. Finlay goes to Kerry, and Mr. Kane is to be appointed to Leitrim.—Dublin Paper.
Mr. Richard Eames, Filacer of the Irish Court of Exchequer, died on Saturday. The office he held is worth about 1000/. a year ; and Mr. Fitzsimon is mentioned as likely to have it, the state of the Dub- lin County registry being now such as to render the return of a Liberal secure. A Mr. Duffy, a friend of Lord Duncannon, and a recent con- vert from Toryism, is also a candidate to succeed Mr. Eames; but the Dublin Reformers are very anxious that it should be given to an un- doubted Liberal, and their newspapers warn Lord Mulgrave to be- ware how he makes any slip here. Were the Lord-Lieutenant a Tory, none but a backbone Tory would have the least chance of a sinecure of 10001. per annum.
