Mb DbLautottb was yesterday admitted as a barrister of the Supreme Court, by Judge Richmond, under the new Act. The*news by cable that a Mrs Loregrove, from Few Zealand, Ins laid claim to the Derwentwater estates, haß roused into action a local claimant, Mr Pearce, ot Newmarket, Auckland, who considers he has some right.to the property which has so long gone a-begging, and bases it upon the following pedigree :— His father-in-law was a Captain Robert Good, and Captain Good's great-grandfatber was Lord Petre, who married the only daughter of the axecuted Earl of Derwentwater. The latter had an only son, who was killed in France, learing no issue.
