PROPERTY OF MARRIED WOMEN.

On the motion of Mr. MALIN8, a bill was introduced, and read a first time, to enable Married Women to dispose of reversionary interests in personal estate, in the same manner and with the same ceremonies as real property.

The ArroaNey-GENEaar, observed that the bill would remove a great anomaly, which was not in truth a deduction from the law of England, but which had grown up out of a decision now too old and too frequently followed to be reversed by anything short of Parliamentary interference.
