M. R. C. Surgeons, No. 11, Botwerie tleet-street, London. at a Peppercorn Rent. MFR. GEORGE ROBINS has the honour to announce, that he is instructed to SELL by AUCTION, and peremptorily, on THURSDAY, the 13th of August, at the Auction Mart, London, a very eligible Pro perty, with a view to a 'safe and permanent investment for capital, comprehending THE DUBLIN THEATRE ROYAL, with all its valuable machinery, scenery, wardrobes, and properties of every description, the whole of a character that will not yield to the METROPOLITAN THEATRES, and possessing an advantage even beyond its rival compeers in England, inasmuch as it presents a splendid and elegant structure, PERFECTLY INSOLATED. Its exterior has long been the subject of unvarying ap probation, while the interior presents a model of perfection well worthy of imitation. The altitude of the principal building admit's of the most effective scenic operations, faci litated by the application of the most approved mechanisms. The stage is extensive, the auditory capacious, and the cor ridors and saloon splendid anti commodious, the tout en semble combining every thing which great taste and con summate skill could accomplish. Also, THE VALUABLE PATENT, INSURING THE EX CLUSIVE RIGHT OF PERFORMING DRAMA- TIC REPRESENTATIONS WITHIN THE CITY OF DUBLIN, and possessing a most important additional feature, that its performances are not subject to THE CONTROUL OF A LICENSER; and there is an express Act of Parliament of George 111. restricting any minor Theatre from acting Tragedy, Comedy, Opera, or Interlude, under a most severe penalty, and en forced by a very summary and not expensive process. This extensive Property stands upon nearly One Acre of Land, and in the best situation in Dublin, near to the College, and in the heart of the City. The grount rent is 564/. 45., and the taxes do not exceed 1001., so that this annual expenditure would scarcely exceed one great night's re ceipt ; and it will be observed ; as a most remarkable fact connected with theatrical history, that by means of the profit rental produced by other property included in the lease, IT IS ENTIRELY RENT FREE, It was completed in the year 1521, under the superintend ence of Mr. Beazeley, and the cost, under a very econo mical arrangement, exceeded 125,0001. THE PATENT FOR THIS THEATRE ROYAL is granted for 21 years, (the longest period that one can be given) and is renewable for ever, and consequently equal to a freehold tenure, unless forfeited by gross misconduct. It is submitted that enough has been stated to justify Mr. Robins in calling the special attention of those who are alive to the great profits attendant upon a theatrical pro perty to embark in a purchase, that, with moderate exertion, a talented man cannot fail of success. Printed particulars are preparing, and may be had 10 days prior to the sale, at Morrison's and the principal Hotels in Dublin and Cork ; the Waterloo, Liverpool ; and the best Hotels at Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham, and York ; at the Offices of Messrs. Bick nell and Roberts, Lincoln's Inn ; the Auction Mart ; and at Mr. George Robins's Office, London. THE WHITWELL ESTATE, IN YORKSHIRE, Always esteemed as one of the most eligible and compact in the county—it includes Nine Farms of One Thousand Fire Hundred and Fifty-seven Acres of Uncommonly Fine Land—the Farm Houses of a Superior Class—the Entire Village of Whitwell—the Whole Lordship—and the Whitwell Inn and Posting-house. The Rental nearly 3,0001. a-year. R. GEORGE ROBINS has great satis faction in announcing that he is directed to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, in London, on THURSDAY, the 13th of August, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot, a highly important and singularly desirable FREEHOLD PROPERTY. It comprehends THE WHITWELL ESTATE, WITH THE WHOLE LORDSHIP AND ENTIRE VILLAGE, desirably situate twelve miles only from York, and on the direct road. to SCARBOROUGH, (a fashionable and much-frequented WATERING PLACE,) and Marlton and Whitby. The Estate embraces so many and such important qua lifications, that it will be impossible to compress them in the confined limits of an advertisement. Enough, how ever, will be said, it is apprehended, to enlist the serious and immediate attention of the great Capitalists, and more especially those whose.property is in the Funds;, for it will not be doubted that the exceedingly high price must ren der a re-action at no distant period quite certain, and the very cause which necessarily will diminish the one will in crease in the exact proportion the value of Land, and espe cially such an Estate as the one now presented, to which the most sceptical could not hazard an objection. It includes NINE FARMS CONTAINING 1557 ACRES OF SUPERIOR LAND, PRODUCING NEARLY THREE THOUSAND POUNDS A-YEAR, With Farm-Houses and Buildings as may safely challenge rivalry.—The tenantry are not merely resrectable and of long standing, but contented and affluent. To demonstrate this assertion, it is only necessary to add, there is not, nor has there been, even in times (happily gone by) of Agri cultural distress, a solitary arrear of Rent; to which may be added, it possesses the great desideratum of being FREE FROM TYTHE, and EXTRA-PAROCHIAL. The Residence is of an unobtrusive character, it pretends not to a comparison with its mighty neighbouring compeer, the EARL OF CARLISLE'S AT CASTLE-HOWARD, although it does not yield to it in internal comfort.—From the Terrace walk the views are indescribably beautiful, and a Panorama is presented, equalling in its extent and varied scenery, any thing in this favoured country ; the prescribed space forbids a lengthened detail. The magnifi cent Minster at York, the Ruins of Sheriff-Hutton and Crake Castle, are the most prominent. The more distant view extends far beyond Harrogate, and is terminated only by the range of Yorkshire Hills. Such is the faint and imperfect outline of the advantages exclusively belonging to the Whitwell Estate; and it may be observed, in con clusion, that it offers one of the most eligible and safe in vestments that has ever been offered to unreserved com- petition. The WHIT WELL INN and POSTING-HOUSE, A most comfortable abode, and the first stage from York to Scarborough, forms a part of this valuable Estate. It can be viewed until the sale, by application• to Mr. Jacob Stubbs (one of the respectable tenants;) and particulars, with Lithographic plans annexed may be had at (one shilling each,) tea days prior to the Sale, at Etridge's Hotel, and the Black Swan, York; the Bull Hotel, Scarborough ; the New Talbot, Mahon ; the Angel, Doncaster; the White Horse, Tadcaster ; the Waterloo Hotel, Liverpool ; of Messrs.

This was a petition of a person named Charlton, who had been bankrupt, and it complained of va rious acts of misconduct on the part of the assignees —namely, that they had over-paid the solicitor of the commission; that they had retained large ba lances in their hands instead of applying them to the purposes of the commission; end that they had omitted to make dividends at the proper times. The petition prayed for an account ; that the money that had been overpaid should be refunded ; and that, according to the statutes,. the assignees•should be charged 20 per cent. interest on the balances they had improperly retained in their hands. The VICE-CHANCELLOR, after hearing Counsel, was of opinion that there had been most culpable neglect on the part of the assignees. He should order, therefore, that a general account be taken of the balances which the assignees had retained in their hands, upon which balances he should order them to pay 20 per cent. according to the prayer of the petition. The money which had been overpaid to the solicitor must be refunded forthwith, and the costs fall upon the assignees. There are 177 causes entered fbr trial at the present Azsizes, of which 46 are from the North and East Ridings, and 131 from the West Riding. Of these, 11 h:►ce special juries, eight from the North and East, and six from the West Riding.— York Chronicle.

We would particularly direct the attention of those who are concerned in pulling down the build ings in the neighbourhood of Exeter 'Change, to the present state of the house at the east corner of Southampton -street. It will be recollected that the greater portion of the end and part of the front walls of this house gave way a few days ago, and fell into the open space towards the Strand, involving the destruction of nearly every article - within, but fortu nately without any loss of life. Since then some props have been placed against parts of the remaining walls, but they are so slight as to afford scarcely any protection to those who may have occasion to pass near, or who thoughtlessly walk under. A very large portion of the wall in front of Southampton- 1 street is in such a state, that its fall may be caused by the slightest movement of the heavy flooring and other wood-work which are hanging from it on the iaside. The fall of these would necessarily precipi tate an immense mass of brick-work into the street; and yet there is not a shoring or prop of any kind to prevent the destruction of human life, which, in all probability, would be the effect of its fall in the day time, when so many are carelessly passing under. In the course of yesterday we saw a number of boys at play in front of this wall, 'and so near as that if it gave way their instant destruction would have been inevitable. There was, besides, a con stant passing' repassing of men and women, who seemed to be too much occupied with their respective affairs to look up at the tottering mass' frightfully impending over them. Surely the safety of human life ought not to be thus risked; for in proportion to the reckless confidence with which the busy bustling throng daily move through our crowded thoroughfare, ought to be the care of those, who are paid for it to guard them against risks such as this we have noticed. If the salaries of persons whose business it is to see to these things were stopped in cases of accidents happening from the falling of old and neglected buildings, we should not have so often to record the melancholy details of human suffering which they occasion.-11forning Paper. GRAND JUNCTION WATER COMPANY. SUPPLY OF WATER. A very numerous meeting of the Proprietors in this undertaking was held yesterday, at the Company's offices, in Brook , street, Grosvenor square. The meeting was specially convened, for the purpose of taking into consideration the necessity for an alteration being made in the Company's source of supply, and also the im portant communications which had taken place upon the subject between the Right Hon. the Secretary of State for the Home Department and the Board of Management. WILLIAM CLAY, Esq. in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN stated the objects of the meeting, as narrated above, and requested Mr. Coe, the secretary, to read the report. It was in substance as follows : Adverting to the report of the Select Com mittee of the House of Commons, in which it was stated " that many of the complaints re specting the quality of the water are well founded, and that the supply ought to be derived from other sources than those now resorted to," the Directors state, that so strong had been the feel ing excited by the report of the Select Commit tee against the Thames water within the London district, they conceived they should be guilty of a dereliction of duty, did they not strongly re commend a change to be made in the source of supply, feeling convinced that whilst the Com pany continued to draw their supplies from the present source, it would be almost impossible to satisfy the public as to the purity of the water. After numerous surveys had been made along the line of the river Thames, facilities for pro curing of water from Richmond, by means of the boundary cut of Kew and Richmond-gardens, presented themselves. This arrangement re quiring the assistance and sanction of Govern ment, the plan was immediately communicated to Mr. Peel. That communication, among other things, stated that near Kew-bridge, on the Surrey shore, a deep and wide cut commenced, and which served as a boundary to Kew-gardens, running parallel to the Thames to within 400 yards of Richmond-bridge. At this place the Company respectfully solicited. permission of the Crown to lay a pipe ; this, it was conceived, would not at all injure the Crown lands. The application expressed the firm belief of the Board of Management that this source of supply would satisfy the public, and concluded by disclaiming the wish or intention of obtaining from Go vernment any sanction either as regarded the en terprise or any consequent trifling advance of rates. To this application a letter was received from Mr. Milne, of the Woods and Forests, ap pointing an interview between the engineer of the Company and Mr. Aiton, superintendent of Kew Gardens. The result of this interview was an assurance from Mr. Alton that the plan was both eligible and practicable. Immediately after wards a letter was received from the Under Se cretary of State, informing the Company that it was apprehended the adoption of the plan would render works necessary which might interfere with the enjoyment and privacy of the gardens and pleasure-grounds at Kew. To this letter the Board of Management stated that they did not contemplate forming any works whatsoever on the spot, nor would the arrangement require the entrance:of a single individual to the gardens. This was followed by another letter from the Woods and Forests, requesting the transmission of a plan and section of the intended operations : these were sent accordingly. The Chairman of the Company, Mr. Clay, had an interview with Mr. Peel, who suggested the propriety of the different Companies coalescing, and of employ ing Mr. Telford to examine and report whether any and what improvements could be effected in their supplies. Mr. Clay expressed his willing ness to do this, so far as regards the Grand Junction Company. Pending these . proceedings, Mr. Peel himself wrote the following letter to the Board of Management : Gentlemen,—On the termination of Par, liamentary business, my attention has baau re called to those important questions connected with the supply of water to the metropolis which have recently undergone consideration in the House of Commons, which have been the sub jects of the reports of a unission appointed by the Crown and a Committee of the House of Commons, and which I have no doubt will again form a topic of serious discussion so soon as Parliament shall resume its labours in another Session. A reference to what has already passed on this subject ; and a deep conviction pf its import- Pursuant to the suggestion of Mr. Peel, the Directors sought a conference with the Directors of the Chelsea and West Middlesex Companies, in which they declined the proposition of the Hon. Secretary for the Home Department. All idea on the part of the Companies obtain ing leave to lay a pipe on the Crown lands at Richmond having been negatived by his Ma jesty's Government, the Company procured a site a short distance from Richmond, and so many miles above the reach of the London drainage, as in their opinion would set at rest the purity of their site. The cost of such plan was estimated at about 80,000/. To meet this 10,0001. was proposed to be taken from the re serve fund ; other available assets would form a fund of 60,0001.; a creation of shares would raise the balance. By thus removing the source of supply ten miles higher up the Thames, and also filtering the water to be delivered, a small increase of rate might fairly be levied. Several Proprietors lamented the non-concur rence of the Government in the plan proposed, and after thanks to the Chairman the Meeting adjourned. MANCHESTER GOODS MARKET. MANCHESTER, AUG. 5.--in my letters to you at the commencement of the year, I ventur e d to state my apprehensions that the trade o f 1829 would not equal that of 1828 ; but having en tertained an opinion that the withdrawal,of the one-pound notes would of itself occasion great depression, and being jealous that preconceived notions might influence my view of facts and the inferences to be drawn from them, I did not state all my fears, but allowed my representa tions to be somewhat softened by the very con fident assertions which were made by well informed and keen-sighted persons, that trade daring this year would not be worse than it had been during the preceding year. You will re collect, however, that I said, that taking the most favourable view, notwithstanding the addition that had been made to the power of producing goods, the whole quantity produced would be sold for a less amount than the quantity produced in 1828 sold for ; that the manufacturer, if be did the same amount of business, would do it for less profit ; and that the weaver, if he ob tained the same quantity of work, would work for less wages. The event has been more disas trous, not merely than—correcting my own views by those of others—l represented, but infinitely more disastrous than my most gloomy anticipa tion ; and I may venture to say, that never since I knew Manchester and its trade—and I have known them 18 or 20 years—has the condition of the whole mass of its population, emplonrs and employed, been so wretched and sc, -hope less. In 1826 we had indeed a period of great depression and distress ; but it. Was so obviously the result of the mad speculations of the preced ing year, that people saw they could not return to a sober state without undergoing the necessary penance. Since that period there has been no excitement ; things have gone on with most titer . cantile propriety ; speculation has been un known ; failures have been almost unknown ; and saving that increased power of production which attends the improvement of machinery, unattended by the opening of new or the exten sion of old markets, there has been nothing to distinguish the period from the soberest in the history of the manufacturing districts. Men cannot, therefore, say now , 4 we only want co», fidence in each other." They cannot say " here is a panic—let us be patient till it be over." The distress has come up on t h em gradually, and they see no prospect o f i ts removal. In 1826 the country was in the situation a a m a n vs b o, having broken his leg, was totally di sa bl e d for a time, but had the prospect in a few weeks of It is aboutverny dh s a iiid a ns ee c 4 o ,b u 4 rn t pt f i e c e n ll who gees being out an d a t wor k . yik businessebeac man ozn in become weaker and weaker, and feels hope sinkin- With in him as time advances, Such are the di ;saeartening view s t h at force e themselv e s ur- ui - me in looking round me on the state of this thickly-peopled district. Even tl-oa little instances of brisk demand, on which were built the representations that, on the whole, things were not so bad as they were called, are disappearing. Even coarse yarns for exporta tion,—exponed at a price scarcely exceeding per pound the price of the raw material,—begin to hang heavy on the hands of the spinners. In short, without entering into the partial demand for this, and the slackness of demand for that article, and the failures here and the failures there, every thing is gloom and despondency...-.
