The Lord Chancellor, on Saturday, reversed the decision of the

Vice. Chancellor in the case of the Marquis of Chandos versus the Msrquis of Breadalbane. This last decision gives Lady Chandos a right to about 130,0001., a third of the late Marquis of Breadalbane's personal property, although she had received 30,000/. as a dowry at her marriage. It will be remembered that such was the decree of the Scottish Court of Session, in conformity with Scotch law, which gave Lady Chandos her (vial' or share in the personal property of her father, unless the marriage. settlement barred the claim ; which in the case of Lady Chandos it did not. The Vice- Chancellor had issued an injunction to restrain the Marquis of Chandos from taking legal steps to obtain the money ; and this injunction the Lord Chancellor dissolved, on the ground that nothing short of a formal and express renunciation ever barred the claim of the child under any circumstances.
