This proper needs no the artificiill aid of ornament throughout The County, ty where it is t too well known to require panegyri o c ; the following concise and imperfect statement is intended with a view to illumine only those at a distance. The residence is of a character which unites every possible comfort, without the dread of being overhoused. It is A STONE EDIFICE, seated in the LUXURIANT VAI.LEY, and protected during the inclement season by the AMPHITHEATRE OF HILLS ; its architectural form is chaste, and within it will be found all the ac commodation a family of pretension can desire. It is encom passed by A FINELY WOODED PARK, AMID " SCENERY OF SURPASSING BEAUTY." There is a never-ending combination of hill and dale, adorned by majestic woods ; the "Meandering of the River Harburne," and the constant undulations of the grounds, combi ne t o f orm A PERFECT CLAUDE SCENE, a nd one o f very rare occurrence. The offices connected with the Mansion are very abundant ; ar e adorned TE LAWN AND PL EASURE GROUNDS H by in myriads of plants and flowerin shrubs, the Kitchen Ga rden prolific Fruit and Vegetables, and the abundan ce of Fish 4e uZilt within sight o f t h e drawing-room, would resider the vocation of a t,eighbouring fi s h monger a work of surer.

These very attractive estate* have for a lengthened period enjoyed the proud distinction of being re cognised as PET PLACES OF THE LOCALITY which they adorn ; they are happily situate upon THE 13ANk OF IHE BLACKWATER, which abounds with salmon-trout, and the pure and limpid water of which NOBLE RIVER FLOWS BETWEEN THE ESTATES. They are also only three miles from the canal at Lismore, four from the quays of Tullowbridge and Tyrcullen, on the river Bride, and twelve from the SEA-PORT TOWN OF YOUGHALL, ALL IN . THE COUNTY OF WATERFORD. The situation needs no _panegyric to those who are fortunate enough to have enjoyed ocular demonstration of its varied brauties; to those, however, who lack that advantage, a few brief observa tions will not be eut of place. THE SCENERY is MOST ROMANTIC and LUXURIANT; THE RICHLY WOODED GLEN, And " PICTURESQUE HALL OF GLENMORE" Forms the eastern boundary of Coolishall, and the river Araglin bounds it on the Tkorth ; the }louse and demesne have the Blackwater on the north, with private boats and walks to connect them with the FAMED GLEN' AND WATERFALL OF GLENMORE ; and on the west are thick plantations. The walks and shrubberies are very extensive, adorned by thousands of the choicest trees and flowering shrubs, and the Residence commands extensive views of the Grounds of • GLENCAIRN ABBEY, FORT WILLIAM, THE CATHEDRAL, and CASTLE OF LISMORE, with many other seats of renown. The surpassing beauty of the ornamental timber renders the scene perfect; indeed there are many who have likened this favoured property to ELYSIUM. If profit be in the mind's eye of the purchaser, he will .find a suitable spot whereon to erect a mill or factory, with an UNLIMITED COMMAND OF WATER ; and there are also numerous romantic and beautiful spots, admirably suited to the erection of villas ; in fact, the temptation will be irre , si.tible for a building operation on a large and profitable scale. The Domain extends altogether to nearly TWO THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED ACRES OF ARABLE, PASTURE, WOOD, AND MOUNTAIN LAND, ALL FREEHOLD. except as regards 168 acres connected with the " MANSION and DEMESNE of GLENMORE," which are held upon lives renewable for ever.

PROPERTY, deiignated ELFORDLEIGH, and for a lengthened period THE ADMIRED ABODE of WILLIAM LANGMEAD, ESQ. The Mansion, which is one of tho features of this vicinity, is seated or rather it nestles under the brow of the Hill, within " THE PARK GROUNDS," and in view of THE ORNAMENTAL WATERS. A splendid Conservatory," erected upon the beat principle, adorns this favoured abode. The majestic timber which ornament THE HANGING WOODS, includes " THE MONARCH OF THE - FOREST," with Pines of stately growth. The rising grounds afford shelter from the wintry wind; while " THE VALLEY TEEMING WITH WILD FERTILITY," refreshes and aids the delightful illusion. In the extensive Shrubberies which encompass Elfordleigh, the American Plants and flowering Shrubs, relieved by parterres, projecting rocks, the jet d'eau and fountain, form an ensemble of very rare oc currence. The Kitchen Gardens are walled, and abound in fruit and vegetables. The approach to the Mansion is by a rustic lodge of pleasing design, and progresses for a mile through the luxuriant plantations, wherein vistas are judiciously cut to give additional effect, and vary the delightful scene, until the pictureque valley is brought into closer contact ; indeed, the situation will hardly yield to anything throughout this interesting district. It is midway between IVYBRIDGE AND PLYMOUTH, " THE RENOWNED WOODS OF SALTRAM" on one side, and Newnham on the other; in the distant scene MOUNT EDGCOMBE, Lord Morley's, and the Town of Plymouth, are perceptible—aid in the delightful illu s i on , an d t en d mater i a ll y to heighten the effect of the picture. _ _ PLYM BRIDGE AND RIVER PLYM give effect to the FAMED SCENERY OF BICKLEY VALE, and in the distance the landscape is made perfect by the CRAGGY MOUNTAINS OF DARTMOOR, and THE FAMED BREAKWATER. The neighbourhood stands confessedly without a rival anywhere for its good fellowship and high respectability. Tho Mansion is adapted to a man of fortune. THE STRUCTURE IS OF STONE ; A MODERN ELE. VAtION, . _ avoiding all the faults of the present school ; in its outward fora IT IS OF AN IMPOSING CHARACTER, ani within there is " THAT WHICH PASSETH SHEW," for comfort in its most intelligible form prevails throughout ; the offices are very commensurate, and the court-yard encloses excellent stabling for ten horses, and standing for three carriages. By the way it may not be amiss to allude to the forthcoming CONTEST FOR THIS DISTRICT, when the possessor of Elfordleigh will put in very strong claims to be one of the TWO HUNDRED AND FOUR► ACRES, including a proportion of barley and turnip land, with a gcod sprinkling of HOP GROUNDS, and some prolific orchards. It is in the vicinity of lots of good markets, and the EASTERN RAILWAY will, in all probability, give a new impetus to the means of procur ing the highest prices. A turnpike road passes through the centre of the estate. It is on lease for a term, of which five years are unexpired, to Messrs.

A FARM RESIDENCE, with ABOVE A HUNDRED ACRES of EXCELLENT LAND, full of BRICK EARTH, TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION, By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS, At the Auction Mart, on WrnNEsnalr, August 30, at Twelve, in Seventeen Lots, by direction of the Birmingham, Bristol, and Thames Junction R a il way C ompany, .A VALUABLE FREEHOLD PROPERTY, which, in point of el:gibility, very few can approach. It is " TIIE EYNHAM FARM," SHEPHERD'S BUSH, Two and three-quarters Miles from London, and recently pur chased of THE BISHOP OF LONDON ' in order to secure a sufficient quantity of land to carry out to its full extent the views of the Birmingham, Bristol, and Thames Junction Railway Company. A qpantity exceeding ONE HUNDRED ACRES will not be required for this wonderful undertaking, and has been divided, with much judgment, into convenient Lots by the able Surveyor of the Company. This announcement does not contem plate more than a brief review of some of the leading features. First, it abounds with Brick Earth of the highest character, with an average depth of 8 feet ; the substratum is gravel, and the land will be hereafter drained by the Railway drain, which is to be con structed at a depth below the brick earth, and, with the aid of THE KENSINGTON CANAL aTords the certain means of accomplishing it. THE FARM ABODE requires a very little eutlay to render it a gentlemanly residence, and the grounds around it give proof that in the olden time it must have been most respectably occupied. All the lands conti guous would let exceedingly well (after the brick earth has been used) for a building operation on a large scale. In the meantime an immense income will be derivable from the land, arising out of the vast number of sheep and cattle from Northamptonshire (by the railway) and the West of England, which would need a place for repose the night antecedent to the market. The upper part of the land borders upon the MILITARY ROAD TO WORMHOLT SCRUBBS. The views in all directions are extensive and beautiful, and its close approximation to the ELEVATED HILL OF THE HIPPODROME will render the plan of the building one not easily resisted. The Estate may be rendered very influential by VOTES FOR MIDDLESEX. This Sale is, by direction of the Board, to be peremptory.

Ckl 41. lid BJ Od • - Between 10 and 11 o'clock on Sunday night the attention of the police on duty at Peckham Rye was directed towards that part which leads from Forest-hill, from hearing the sound of footsteps, and the moans of a human being. On going to the place from whence the sounds priweeded, they discovered a person, apparently between 40 and BO years of age, in a state of nudity, lying on the ground, covered with blood, which flowed from three wounds, one on the left arm, between the elbow and shoulder, the second on the side, and the third, which was the most dangerouß, in the throat. The two first were merely flesh wounds, while that in the neck had penetrated through the flesh, but had not touched the wind pipe. He was immediately conveyed to the station-house, and from thei.ce to the work-house at Peckham. After the wounds were dressed, the unfortuuate man was minutely questioned as to the cause of the injuries which were upon his person; but, to the surprise of the inquirers, not a single word could bo obtained from the wounded marl ; he was equally silent as to what bad become of his 'apparel. As soon as daylight commenced, the police proceeded to search the place, and traced the marks of the blood as far as Forest hill, a distance of, half a mile from where he was found ; but not the slightest trace of his clothes could be discovered. From the i nqu i r i es which the police made of the private watchman on d uty at the latter place, it appears that about 10 o'clock he saw a p erson , answer i ng the description of the wounded man, oartdir i g by hi mse lf, an d at a short distance from him three men • but, fro m t h e extraor di nary con d uct o f the wounded man, Whether he bad been robbed and wounded, or had attempted to commit Weide, they were um.ble to obtain the slightest information go the subject. IN RE DE SAUMAREZ, A LUNATIC. There were twu petitions with this title, having for their object the removal of Captain de Saurnarez as one of the Committees of the persons of the lunatics, his brothers., His Lordship, having heard counsel at some length, and having alsa seen Dr. Southey on the subject, said he was of opinion there was no reason to displaCe Captain de Sau marez, and that, if the petition had not been in lunacy, in which the Court always looked with tenderness on applica tions respecting the treatment of those placed under its protection, be would have dismissed the petitions with costs. His Lordship thought, however, and so did. Dr. Southey, that it would be better if Captain de Saumarez did not in terfere with the treatment prescribed by his brothers' me- I clieal advisers. ROLLS' COURT—Aucusr 8. RICIIARDS V. DADLEY. . In this case a motion was made to discharge an appear ance, entered under the following circumstane es :—Tlie tes tator in the cause, a person of the nam e of Richards, made his will, by which he gave certain interests in his property'to his son, the plaintiff, and four classes of infant defendants. Some time after a gentleman of the name of Husband who had acted as the testator's solicitor, suggested to the plaintiff the propriety of filing a bill for the administration of the estate, and this was eventually done, some other solicitor, however, being entrusted with the conduct of the suit. Hereupon Mr. Husband himself filed a bill, and through his agent, Mr. G. Smith, put in an appearance for the infant parties, which appearance it was now sought to set aside on the following grounds ;—ln the first place the bill was filed on the 9th of May, with the full knowledge that Mr. Richards himself intended to file a bill for the administra tion of the testator's estate, and, in fact, with such haste that it was: found necessary to amend it on two subse quent occasions. On the 24th of June, the plaintiff having given notice of a motion, the bill was further amended, by the introduction of charges of collusion and adverse, interests between the parties. This bill, it was contended, was filed without the slightest au thority, an 1 without the consent of any of the parties interested. In the suit commenced by Mr. Richards an ap pearance was entered for the infant defendants and a com mission appointed to assign guardians ; but at a period sub sequent to the day on which the appearance was entered in the other suit. Under those circumstances it was contended that the appearance entered by Mr. Smith was irregular, and ought to be discharged with costs. On the other side, it was alleged that Mr. Husband had declined to file a Bill on Mr. Richards's behalf; because he considered that person too illiterate to form a correct judgment as to the rights of the parties, and that Mr. Husband, in filing his bill, had only been actuated by his feelings of respect to the testator, and from a desire to prevent - collusion between the parties. It was further contended, on the general principle, that any person had a right without authority to enter an appear ance for an infant, and that therefore tho appearance of the subject of the present motion was regular. Mr. PEMBERTON appeared in support of the motion, and Mr. STEWART opposed it. His Lordship the MASTER of the ROLLS should, for the present, without going into the evil. nee, assume that the Bill filed on the 9th of May ties properly filed. The other Bill was filed on the 13th of May, and he also had as good reason to assume that that Bill was properly filed, but he would treat that matter, however as doubtful. The Bill being filed, and there being no legal authority to enter an appearance for the infant parties, he had vet to learn that any person might betake himself to the Six Clerks' Office, and, without ascertaining whether there was any.relativ e or friend willing or fit to act as.guardian ad Nem, get the Six Clerks to enter an appearance on his own discretion. Some previous inquiry ought to take place, or a commission ought to have been appointed to assign a guardian, or the matter ought to have been brought before the Court. - He had no doubt of the propriety of discharging Mr. G. Smith's ap pearance ; but, nevertheless, he thought he could not dis pense nth hearing the reply, as it would sffeet the ques• tion of costs. Mr. PEMBERTON thea briefly replied, contending. that Mr. Husband had filed the bill entirely with a view to costs, and that all pretext of collusion ani adverse inte rests were mere inventions of that, gentleman's brain. .His Lonnsuip said that the point which he now had before him was simply this, that Mr. G. Smith, without authority, without instructions, and without knowing whe ther any person was willing to assume the office of guar dian ad film procure an appearance to be entered for these infants, •and had thereby put it upon the other party to get rid of that appearance as they best could. He should dis charge the appearance, and order Mr. Smith himself to pay the costs.—Motion granted, with costs. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT—Aua. 8. Joseph Painter, described as a bookszller, applied on his petition to be discharged under the Act, and was un opposed. The insolvent had been a private watchman, and had latterly assumed the more dignified appellation of a " bookseller." In that capacity he had been both for tunate and unfortunate, arising out of a sinnlar circum stance. In March last he purchased at Hodson's Auction rooms, in Fleet -street, three play books and poems for sixpence. In these books were three 201. notes ; his good fortune came to the knowledge of Sir John Richardson, the heir at law of - Thomas Richardson, Esq. deceased, to whom the books had belonged. The insolvent was pursued by Sir John for 601., the three 201. notes ; he defended the action, but a verdi tt passed against him, and the debt with the costs amounted to 119/. I Is. 9d. Sir John Richard son not only, lost the amount of the notes, but had incurred considerable expellee in obtaining a verdict. The insolvent hid been ar res t e d at t h e suit of a person named Wiggins f or money borrowed. Ito was questioned as to the validity of the alleged debt and the circumstances that led to the arrest. Mr. Commissioner - BUWE N held that the detaining cro• ditnr must attend, to. he examined on the subject. The case was accordingly adjourned for that purpose. ASSIZE INTELLIG E NCE HOME CIR C t.O CR° rpox, Avo 8. The Commission Assizo for this County was opened here yesterday, after which the Learned Judges attended divine service, and at ten o'clock this morning they pro ceeded to business, the Lord Chief Justice of the Cuurt of Queen's Benth sitting at Nisi Prins, and Mr. Justice Lit tledale on the Crown side. The calendar is comparatively light in the number of prisoners and the character of the off: aces. There are but twenty prisoners for trial. The business on the Nisi Prius side is more heavy, 52 causes are entered, of which eight have special juries. MIDLAND CIRCUI7I-IVAltwicir, Auo. 7. Win. Atkins, Nathaniel Haynes, Benjamin Sinith, and others, were placed at the bar, charged with having, on the 25th and 26th of July last, assembled at Birmingham in a riotous and tumultuous manner, making a great noise and disturbance in breach of the _Queen's peace. The prisoners haling pleaded not guilty, Mr. CLARKE went on to state that, during the late contested election :at Birmingham, a most serious riot took place before the hotel in which one of the candidates was, the whole of the windows of the same having been broken, and almost the entire front smashed in, and this rioting and disturbance had continued even after the Riot Act had been read, so that the prisoners might have been indicted capitally. He should be able to identify all the prisoners as having been present, and being seen tak ing an active part in the affray. Mr. MILLER, for the prisoners, felt no hesitation, under thoseeircumstances, in asking his Lordship to allow the men at the bar to retract their former plea of not guilty, and throw themselves upon the merciful consideration of the Court. . - The prisoners then pleaded guilty, having first retracted their former plea, and the Court ordered them to be dis charged on giving sureties to keep the peace. There were several other indictments against many different indi viduals, who having adopted a similar line of conduct were also bound over in recognizances to keep the peace. Charles Newman, aged a young. man of most gen tlemanly eNteriur, and most respectably connected, pleaded guilty to a charge of ernberslement, preferred against him nn behalf of the Governor and Company of the Bank of England, and was sentenced to be imprisoned nine months. On the 28th ult, 444 • oung persons were confirmed in Chelmsford Church, by the Lord Bishop of Lo d n 266 Of whom were fem a l ee% Q MANSION-BOUSE. It will be recollected that about three weeks ago the Se cretary of the .Northern and Eastern Railway Company complained against Mr. Bate, an artist, who hod tiucater:ed to annihilate Mr. B.igshaw, one of the Directors of t!-.e Company, in consequence of unsuccessful dealings in that most dangerous of articles, railway shares ; and that upon that occasion the defendant was held to had, himself in the amount of 2001,, and two sureties in twice the amount of 1001. each to keep the peace. Mr. Rowcroft, the Secretary to the Company,-had, is few days ago, occasion to apply for the asAiltance:of the LORD MAYOR, notwithstanding the Fortner proceedings against the defendant, for protection ag ainst appr e h en d e d violence of th e most d esperate kind, an d on Monday Da. Ilia Forrester brought Ablates before the Lean--Maron to answer the complaint. The complainant regretted that he w.is obliged to Op. pear again on the subject, but the conduct of Ow de. fondant *as of such a description that he felt Limself bound to require, for the protection of all the Directors of the Company and for himself, that the defendant should be required to enter into further security to keep the peace. Mr. Roweroft put in two letters, signed Edwin Bates, which, if words be evidence, showed a disposition in tilt writer to be even with those he considered his ailverstrries in some way or other. The general body of the directors and the secretary were reviled in these effusions, but Mr, Bag. shave seemed to have been selected as the principal offender, although it was quite apparent that he knew no more of the transaction in which the defendant was concerned than those happy persons who have never with r a il ways or balloons. had an ythi ng to do The LORD MAYOR (to Bates)—Are you aware of the difficulty in which you place your secretary by the Course you have been pursuing? • Mr. Roweroft—Of the insanity of the unfortunate gen tleman there is no doubt. The demand which he mado upon the directors when here on a former occasion was 1601. Mr. Bates—lt was 182/., and it was increased to'l6o/: by the base conduct of the directors. Mr. Roweroft—H e now says his demand is P. 60/. • Mr. Bates —So it is. It is augmented by persech!ion. I am not only deprived of my property, but T. am insidted. My demand is now 300/., and I will bq paid. Mr. Bag shaw is aware of all the circumstance; and so are you, Rowcroft, but you are too despicable to be noticed by me. The defendant's gesticulations were here very furious. Mr. Roweroft said that Mr. Masterman, one of the directors, had made the defendant a present of 20.1, in order to enable him to 'prosecute his studies of nature in the north ; but it seer:led that that act of beneficence had had the effect of confirming the defendant in the absurd belief that he had an equitable claim upon the Directors. Mr. Bates—Yes, Mr. Masterman paid me an instalment of the debt due to me, and I thought that a fair commence ment,.and that each of the other Directors would follow it up. Who can say that they could not a ff ord it, as the continue to pocket by their Railway Company such a sum as 2,000/, a year, although there is not the most remote idea of making any railway at all. The Loan Mavort—How could you think of acting against those gentlemee, who had nothing to de, with the rising or falling of the prices of the shares , ar .ki afte r hav ing be en ma d e a.present of 20/. by Mr. Masterman, who gave it fro m mere motives of compassio n "? Mr. Bat es r idi cu l ed the idea of tI operation of such motives upon the mind of a railway_ director, and used such strong expressions as induced the Lord Mayor to say that the plaintiff was perfectly right in. demanding; additional security, Mr. Bates (in a mild tone —I sh a ll, I as ship, ne ver wr i te another word to any of themsure you: L )rd- Mr. Roweroft then swore that he considered himse!f to be in personal danger from the violence of the defenda ,t. Mr. Bates—My Lord, you are responsible before God for this act of injustice. The Lord MAYOR—I am sorry to be obliged to!call upon you to give bail, yourself in 200/., and two sureties 100/. each. iu Mr. Bates was then taken to the Conipter by Daniel Forrester. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday William Somerville, a shoe-maker, residing in Prosp ect - p l ace, Li verpool road, Islington, was brought be fore M. R OGERS, i n the custody of police constable Little, 230 N division, charged with having attempted to commit suicide. Little, yesterday morning, about a quarter to two o'clock, was passing through Upper-street, Islington, when he saw the prisoner lying on the step of a door in a state of nsensibility, and on endeavouring to arouse him he found `rat he was covered with blood, and a razor was by .his On examining him he found a deep wound cn groat. He made an alarm, and with assistance he took aim to the station-house, where the wound being dressed, he was locked up. Shortly afterwards a noise was heard in the cell, and on Sergeant Collins, 24 N, opening the . door and entering, he found the prisoner with his neckereLief twisted round his neck, and he was trying to strangle him self. In order to prevent another attempt upon his life be wits handcuffed with his hands behind him, but he attempted to dash out his brains by rushing against the wall of the cell with great violence, and, on the officers re-entering„, they found the prisoners nearly insensible and bleeding from the head ; and, in order to prevent further mischief, he was al lowed to sit with the officers, who kept a strict watch over him until the morning, and during the whole time he pre served silence, and remained in a melancholy mood, refus ing to assign any cause for the rash attempts he made upon his life. Mr. ROGERS asked him what be had to say for such rash conduct ?—Prisoner (dejectedly) —I have nothing to say but that I did it. Mr. Ronuns—What could induce you to fly into the presence of your Maker with all your sins upon your head ; was it distress P—Prisoner (coolly) --No. Waddington, the gaoler, knew the prisoner to be a hard working man, and thought that it was distress caused bins to attempt the rash act. He had only been married a few months ago, and his wife had eloped with another man, which affected him very much. Serjeant Collins had seen his wife that morning. She appeared to be a respectable woman, and she informed him that the prisoner was jealous of her. On Monday night, during his absence, his brother called upon her and waited his return home, and had a pipe of tobacco and some ale, but, not returning till late, he left the place. The prisoner subsequently returned home, and ou seeing the pipe on the table he would have it that she had encouraged some man there, and-he soon afterwards left the place, saying that she should not see him again ; and she heard nothing of hint until she received information that he had attempted suicide, and was in the station-house.. Mr. ROGERS remonstrated with him on the impropriety of such conduct, and advised with him ; but the prisoner listened with great indifference, and it was evident that no impression could be made upon him, and he coolly said, " I have got nothing to say about the matter." Mr. Rocras--You are a dangerous fellow to be at large, and I shall order you to find good bail. Prisoner—Very well. Mr. Ron Pas ordered that the razor should be destroyed. The prisoner was locked up, and Waddington was di rected to k ee p a s t r i ct watc h over him, in ord er t o prevent him making another attempt upon his life. He was even tually taken to prison. stile. iLIRYLEBONE. Yesterday Mary Pelerx, a cook in the family of Mrs. Campbell, was charged before Mr. Hosims with having stolen a splendid gold carving knife and fork, set with rubies, intended as a present to his late Majesty, and worth together with a richly chased silver-gilt snuff-box, the pro perty of Mr. Henry William Emsworth, of No. 9, Wells street, Gray's Inn-lane, nephew of Mrs. Campbell. The articles were carried off from the drawing-room of Mrs. Campbell's residence, 42, York -street, Portman-square. The prisoner knew nothing of the property, and if she had felt inclined to be dishonest she had had many oppor tunities of st ea li ng t h e casket o f valuable jewels which had been presented to Miss Campbell by the Marquis of Huntley, Mr. Hosimis was of opinion that, upon the whole, there was not sufficient evidence to detain her, but she might he re-apprehended if anything fresh transpired to connect her with the robbery.—The prisoner was accordingly discharged for the present. We take credit to ourselves fo? having been the firs to znnounce to the p u bli c the spirited and laudable dtermina tion of the Tories to console their defeated candidate by the institution of a new tnd distieguished Order of Kghthoo-- that of " The Orde r o f Knights defeat e d of the Conservda tive Button."
