The attention of Equitable Policy Holders is particularly called to the HALF CREDIT SCALES of PREMIUM of this Company, by which table the bonus to be declared at the next investigation, in January, 1850, may be secured at a pfesent annual payment of one half the rates charged by other companies. In the event of death the sum insured will be paid less the amount ofpremiums on credit. Should the life insured survive the declaration of the bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may be due thereon , or, in the event of the party being at that time in bad health, the policy can be kept up by commencing to pay the full premium of the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with the Company, was found peculiarly advantageous at the last equitable division in 1840, When it was largely adopted. and many, of the policies then effected are still in force, and latge bonuses have been added to them on the Scale of the following table ; Stun As s . ired • Time Assured.

The Committee of Management, in consequence of the resolution of the Congleton and Crewe Company, at their meeting held on the 14th instant, to abandon their line, deem it desirable to apprise their shareholders, by advertisement, previous to the meeting on Feiner next, the 22d instant, that in case the scripholders should d e t erm i ne to carry on their line, the Directors think it advisable an d are hapre pared to abandon the projected branch to Congleton, and they h ave therefore applied to Mr. Vignoles, their engineer, for a minute and detailed estimate of the cost of the main line from Buxton to Stok e . Mr. Vignoles as sures t h e C omm i ttee t h at t h e li ne can b e ma d e for something less than 600,0001. ; and o n that outlay there is satisfacto r y reason to believe that a ver y amp l e di v id en d w ill b e rea li se d .

MR• GEORGE ROBINS feels very great pleasure in intimating to the public that he has been selected by the worthy proprietor to SELL, by PUBLIC. AUCTION, on THURSDAY, the 9th of July, at Twelve o'clock, at the Auction Mart, London, in lots of one 62d share each, A considerable portion of - THE "GLOBE" JOURNAL, a paper of which it is not a little difficult to do justice in the common language of praise. First, it may be well to state the reason wtiy a paper so deservedly high in the public estimation (and never at any period in a prouder position than at this juncture) should be in the market. It is not a little refreshing to Mr. Robins to be called upon for this explanation. THE PI , INCIPAL PROPRIETOR, WHO IT IS KNOWN HAS A VERY PREPO.NDERATING SHARE a this " LITTLE MINE OF WEALTH," and has presided over its destines for many years, at length has reached the VENERABLE AGE OF EIGHTY-TWO, a period of lire, which is but rarely voughsafediud.„.2.l4l,. altbinigh lurthe enjoyment Of excellent hearth: It resy VethiltirMed to the honourable proprietor, that he should have a few years un- alloyed from the daily pursuit of literature and profit. It belongs to him especially to have claimed, through good and bad report, the title to consistency ; indeed he has, without deviation, pursued the even tenor of his course. This Journal has always resisted every insidious offer to compromise its character. It has traversir its beaten path or many long years amid great vicissitudes, but always cheered by the knowledge that ChARACTER AND CONSISTENCY TS THE MOTTO CLAIMED ESPECIALLY BY THE "GLOBE." If it be asked what has been the result, It will i cheer and gladden the hearts of those who value the path that has ris e n thi s paper to its just hitch of renown to know that it never was more in public esti ation than at the present moment. The next (and with a pur chaser an importan' query) will suggest itself, how has its income flu tested, and what is its present position ? Gladly does Mr. Robins hasten to rejoin, that he is able to give the fullest satisfaction on that and indeed every other point. The statement of prod s during the last ten years is before the writer of this announcement, from which he collects the fact, that the Shares HAVE NEVER ARRIVED AT SO lIIGII A VALUE AS AT THE PRESENT MOMENT. The annual receipts and profits will be given in detail In the printed Par ticulars of the Sale, which will prove this most satisfactorily. A criterion of its increasing prosperity may be gathered from the fact, that, in 1844, the present Proprietor of so large a stake purchased THREE ADDITIONAL SHARES. A commentary upon this would be superfluoug. The paper, it is known, is divided into ' SIXTY-TWO SHARES. THE VENERABLE VENDOR AT THIS SALE POSSESSES 'AND WILL SELL NINETEEN SHARES. HOW INFLUENTIAL AND HOW VALUABLE must be the privile :e of one who could possess himself of the whole of these shares, who, following closely in the track of his prede cessor, may continue to enjoy such an income as is not derivable from many London journals. Much more might and ought to be re ported in favour of this " FONDLING OF THE PRESS." The printed Particulars will supply a little of the deficiency, the rest will form a short exordium on the memorable day when this portion of the " GLOBE " CHANGES HANDS. The Particulars will he ready twenty-one days prior to the Sale ; then to be had at the Auction Mart, the office of the " Globe," and at Mr. George Robins's offices, London.

A YE. 4 ft, IT IS NEARLY ALL TITHE-FREE, AND THE TENA.Y4rRY BOTH WEALTHY AND RESPECTABLE. AN IMPER/iuvE SALE . MR. GEORGE ROBINS feels mach gratitica tion in having been preferred to OFFER for PUBLIC COM PETITION, at the Auction Mart., London, on THURSDAY, the 9th Of July, at Twelve o'clock, and in One Lot, by direction of the trus tees for absolute sale, one of THE MOST MAGNIFICENT FREEHrAD INVESTMENTS THROUGHOUT ENC,LAND. And in the description that nece.ssar4 must follow, Mr. Robins, without the slightest affectation, proclaims that he ap proaches the task with fear and trembThlg. The only saving clause by which he can well seek to soften the r .eproaches of an enlightened and deeply-read community is alone tbe teund in the liberty the 'com poser will take with authors so hi gidy gifted, that he must indeed be a bold man who will not yield, assent to his r--curdles. Dugdale Is no mean authority, and with. this, and a few introductory facts, the herculean task must be approached. THE FORE. ABBEY DEMESNES are to be traced back to a v,*ry distant day, - and it has ever since maintained its proud superi mity over EVERY OTHER MONASTERY IN ENGLAND. It is a splendidly grand. and unique building, altOgether realising Lord Byrou's glowing de! ,cription of Norman Abbey— An old, oh'{ monastery once, and now Still old er mansion, of a rich and rare • Mix'd Gothic, such as artists all allow Few specimens yet left us can compare. Its classic front EXTENDS T 0 NEAR THREE HUNDRED FEET. The order of filer lecture is in the Tudor style, and may be dated about the time (.jr Rent'.

Its fame ha's been held in the highest veneration from generation to generation , and it is now avowed to have no successful rival amid the vast eariety of monasteries to be round throughout the country. The firs*, impression on beholding thi s ANCIENT AND CLASSIC PILE the tc"., titer feels can never be obliter a t e d f rom hi s memory; hi s mind. on the instant seemed to be subdued into a most devout and reli gia' 48 state—one of absolute wonder—mixed up with bound le'ds admiration; it was a joyous spectacle, but Mr. Robins cannot too earnestly invoke all those who possess a soul congenial with ob jects of antiquity to go to the Abbey, and then judge for themselves ; they will, with one accord, proclaim how absolutely impossible it is to convey in suitable terms the panegyric which would be awarded to it. However, these preliminary remarks must arrive at a conclu sion ; the form prescribed to the length ofan announcement will not ad mit of more, but the writer promises, in his printed particulars, to go into a little historical statement that will be acceptable, at least to the learned, and all such as are well versed in our history ; and he is fortunately enabled, by the ass:stance of a very highly talented lady, to aid the historical account of Dugdale by e dections of her own, and guided by ajudgment and cleverness that has never been held in doubt. To gratify the learned and the curious in distant parts, Mr. Robins has determined to appei.d to the explanatory par ticulars of the several farms and lands a plan of the whole, with a beautiful drawing of the Abbey, to be ready six weeks antecedent to the sale. The situation of this monastery is familiar to most of Is. It is on the borders of the three line counties of Dorset, Devon, and Somerset, 15 miles from Taunton, 3 from Chard, about 50 miles from Bristol and Bath, and within a deligh ful ride of 5)4 hours from London, which the approachint railway through Chard will reduce to about 4 hours, and also bring it within fifty mmutes' ride of Exeter. The county in which the Abbey is paced will not yield to any other. The reader needs not be remind( cl that, in days of yore, the taste of the monks In the selection of their lands was never questiored, and, amidst all the good things of this world, they were remarkable for the accuracy of their judgment. In selecting the best of everything, even THE FAT or THE LAND was not ACCOUNTED TOO GOOD FOR THEIR REFINED TASTE. This princely property is all freehold of inheritance, surrounded by lawns and pleasure-grounds, with gravelled walks between rows of umbrageous trees of great size and stateliness, interspersed with or namental waters, cascades, and waterfalls sparkling with foam, and here and there a statue to diversify the scene. The I'ark, which is one of great beauty, is stocked with deer, whose venison has ob tained the highest celebrity for its fatness and fine flavour, while the soft undulating foliage of its magnificent and , TIIIIE•HONOURED TREES is perpetually deluding the eye into a belief that it was of almost boundless extent, and imparting just such an air of tempered wild ness as would gratify the lover of scenery, without offence to those who are inclined to look rather for the evidences of the superintend ing hand of care and cultivation. Indeed everything seems to in crease the charms of a spot so rich in nature's beauties. Of the orna mental waters in front of the Abbey it is recorded—. Before the mansion lay a lucid lake, Broad as transparent, deep and freshly fed By a river, which Its softened way did take In currents through the calmer waters spread. THE RIVER AXE so renowned by the disciples of Isaak Walton for its piscatory pleasures and delicious trout, winds, in serpentine beauty, through the fair demesne., Lost for a space through thickets veering, But broader when again appearing.

Such is a faithf u l narrative, that it need not be observed is very un common ; indeed, seeing the abundance of unemployed capital (in spite of the railway mama), and tho little value of money, the present is a most influential opportunity of possessing an invest ment in land, which is preferable to all others—for, as it regards the alteration in the corn -lows it has been observed by Mr. Robin?, in another notice of sale, a tact which every day renders more and more certain, that ~ WEHAVE ALL BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT" There are I t L i, C e ll s - eg ts is w MANORIAL extent,and d theRIGHTSp c iANDpalpa7l,l: 'thin _...... of considerable a ring fence.

GEORIiE ROBINS is favoured by in structions fromtio 'the proprietor, to announce for public competion, at the Aucn Mart, London, on TUESDAY, the IGth of June, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot, A FREEHOLD PROPERTY AND DEMESNE, of which it may well be said it has no fear of rivalry throughout this admired county—indeed, the advantages are so many, and press in such rapid succession upon the mind of the composer of this very imperfect outline, that it is not a little difficult to state where to begin. However, the effort must be made; firstly, IT IS DECIDEDLY, FOR ITS SIZE, • THE MOST. ELIGIBLE, AND CERTAINLY THE MOST COMPACT PROPERTY THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. There can ben, scepticism prise out of this assertion. No one can with justice gainsay this high panegyric. It extends to THE WHOLE HAMLET, TOGETHER WITH THE EXTENSIVE MANOR OF WILLENHALL, which is within two short miles of THE ANCIENT CITY OF-COVENTRY. There are • FIVE CAPITAL FARMS, WITH SUPERIOR BUILDINGS • AND WARM FARM-YARDS TO EACH, AND ALL WITHIN A RING FENCE, TITHE FREE AND EXTRA-PAROCHIAL, extending to about SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY ACRES OF RICH MEADOW. PASTURE, and ARABLE LAND, , entirely and • strictly within a ring fence, including the prolific WOOIS. The rates are unusually small, arising out of fact that they are paid by a compromise with the LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANY, whose line passes through Willeohall. The soil is of first-rate quality, as the crops annually demonstrate, and the rick yards verify. Every Farm possesses a superior dwelling, with large garden, and the build ings essential for agricultural purposes arc unexceptionable, in fact, everything is in the most perfect apple-pie order. A microscopic eye could hardly discover a single thing out of place, and with it: A TENANTRY THAT MR. ROBINS PROCLAIMS CAN NOT BE EXCELLED THROUGHOUT ENGLAND ; AND HEAR IT ALL YE OF LITTLE FAITH IN THE STAPLE COMMODITY OF THE COUNTRY % "THERE IS NOT NOR lIAS THERE BEEN AN ARREAR OF ONE GUINEA DURING LAST TEN YEARS." 4Plai:j l , 4, YLl!,9Al T l4a a yr i r t Zt i ft 2, ll . 6 , ll4):i i t e c r o t gezp , V!ng case ?' In respect to the auxiliaries not innncdiately sought in the shape o tneome, it should he said TILE ADJOINING MANORS ARE STRICTLY PRESERVED BY LORDS CRAVEN AND HOOD, as also the Baginton and Brandon property. There is an abundance of game, and fled sports extend to a genzleinan's fondest desire. The Estate is bounded by two large rivers (the Avon and Sowe), which furnish constant anrzsetrent to those inclined to recreate in fishing. THE ELIZABETHAN VILLA is altogether adapted to a gentleman's occupation. It probably might be improve 4 by a finishing stroke from the band of an artiste. There is, besides, one of the farm -houses where the proprietor Would be but too happy to take up his quarters occasionally during the sporting season. The next point, requiring a commentary is the rental—it must be premised —tlAre are no leases. The present low rental is 1,550/,'a year ; but it is quite manifest that SEVENTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR will be conceded as a MODERATE rent, and this should be secured to the PRESENT GOOD MEN AND TRUE, by givng to each a fourteen years' lease. James Mellor, Esq., who has so long domesti cated with his-family on the hill. and whose quiet abode overlooks Coventry and Its beautiful spires, it would be in bad taste to refuse a lease for his life, although it will probably, and it is to be hoped, be a very long one. Longevity prevails on this healthy property, and some time since t his was prow. d by MR. BLUE (close by) retiring into a better world, at the advanced age of 108. Mr. Mellor's grounds are beautifully disposed, and more especially the wild flower-garden, (under the worthy lady's especial care), which gives to it a pleasing variety. LORD CRAVE 7g AND LORD HOOD are close allies; AND THE ESTA ACE OF THE BROTHER OF SIR Ito BERT PEEL, BART. is close at hand. The farms are very prod'active in the soil for white crops, especially wheat and barley, with, filmic admirable turnip land ; but as dairy farms, and to fatten bollocks, they have even a higher claim. The contiguity to one of "che first markets in England, and the facility to return manure, with a portion of 'the produce of this highly cultivated soil, are ad wirinever the good folks of Coventry are indulged vantages that a ,Mod agriculturist will not overlook. A n d now , b y way of conelus' ma, Mr. Robins will ask, and with earnestness (taking ' into the/scale the great curiosity that. prevails everywhere to get into good fa' s now-a-dgys), if the every day observation, resound ing now frran a'l quarters, that THE AVARICULTURAL COMMUNITY HAVE BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT, is n o t 'rendelcol most manifest by the above u n a ssum i ng rec i tal of fa 4. ?

It is well known and highly appreciated as THE SEVERN tIOUSE DEMESNE, four miles from Bristol and Clifton, on the road to the splendid river Severn and the passage into Monmouthshire. A description of this villa abode is a matter of necessity, but the writer feels that his representation must necessarily be very incomplete, Inasmuch, as although it will be that there are to be found a little host of elegant abodes in progressing through the romantic drive of four miles, yet it is confidently stated that there is nothing to present itself that can he put in juxta-position with Severn Rouse. The position is remarkable for the capability it affords to partake in an unusual degree of the extent, and what may really be justly termed TRANSCENDENTLY BEAIIIIFIIL SCENERY It would almost wear the patience of the reader to extend the descrip. lion of all the writer saw, and strived to appreciate, but it is believed a very few gleanings will suffice to tall up the attention of all such as would enjoy the pure, unsophisticated air of Gloucestershire, in a villa which it is universally conceded, stand alone both for situation and prepossessing appearance. It is placed on a lofty and beauteous eminence, but the luxuriant shrubberies and plantations that encircle it, keep the cold winds at a most respectable distance, and in accomplishing this desideratum, it would appear that fairy land has been sought to aid the great design. On perambulating through these splendid grounds the views are (en verite) magnificent, and the extent almost without a limit. THE CONFLUENCE OF THE SEVERN AND THE AVON' is immediately in view, and the perpetual moving scenery in the dis tance must be seen if the reader desires to appreciate it, for it is quite certain this imperfect account will leave an immeasurable host of ob jects entirely disregarded. Here rising boughs, adorned with summer's pride, Project their waving umbrage o'er the tide; While, gently perching on.the leafy spray, Each featber'd warbler tunes his various lay. The road from Clifton is full of variety, and on arriving at the Severn Mansion, it will be perceived much of ingenuity must have been brought the field to accomplish the delightful ascent to be encountered from the very pretty entrance-lodge-gate; but the reader is invoked, and with no small portion of anxiety, not to rely cn anything short of ocular demonstration; as the fame of this residence has extended far and near, it necessarily renders it a work of supererogation and lightens the necessity to go into a more minute detail than this hasty compo sition will fUrnish. Clifton, the great feature of Gloucestershire, is close at hand, and becomes an auxiliary that it would be an injustice to overlook. The neighbourhood is prone to gond-fellowship, but if the fortunate occupant prefers quietude and repose to the gaiety that will surround him, he may enjoy it here uninterruptedly. All the groat lions of the county are close at hand. THE FAMED PIERSEFIELD is only a short drive, and Barnsville-park, a minor candidate for fame, is not far off, the ♦erdant seenery which interposes itself in the progress to these highly commended properties extends over a vale so rich and lovely that its beauties seem to exceed the powers of commendation, and be it remembered all this (and very much more than has been asserted in this brief analysis) is 'within four hours' pleasant drive of the metropolis of London. This delightful abode ha- not yet been noticed sufficiently. " THERE IS THAT WITHIN WHICH PASSETH SHOW." It is a building of considerable pretensions in its outward and visible signs; and a family, although numbering very many, will find themost ample accommodation within ; it may be added, that it lacks nothing that can be understood in the comprehensive term of com fort. The out-offices are most complete throughout, the court yard is worthy of admiration, and a sporting gentleman will find in the stabling and coach houses all that ingenuity can suggest. The kitchen-gardens are very extensive, inclosed by lofty brick walls, and the soil is exceecUnglyprolific ; the fruit is considered unusually high flavoured. THE HOT AND SUCCESSION-HOUSES are quite perfect, . and the produce is beyond praise. There is besides A BEAUTIFUL FRENCH GARDEN, in excellent taste, and shedding its beauteous fragrance on all around, and THE BOTANIC WORLD WILL GLEAN from these gardens considerable knowledge, the bulbs being a selec tion in great part imported from Harlem, and of the choicest speci mens that that city is famed for. The scenery everywhere appears interminable, tends to give a pleasing variety, which again, it is pro claimed, tears nothing by a comparison throughout this far-famed county. It Is in the midst of plenty, everything very reason able—the sea close at hand, and Bristol and Clifton pour in their auxiliaries daily. THE DEMESNE EXTENDS TO FIFTY ACRES OF ADMIRABLE LAND, in which is Inchided A SNUG LITTLE FARM-HOUSE AND BUILDINGS, giving to the iicdustrious views of the proprietor a very.delightful re source to fill up an occasional idle hour. beside leisure in improving the breed of his cattle, thus combining. the art of driving away ennui (if it should presume to make its unwelcome appearance) from this scat of happy contentment. The proaress to the summit of this QUITE PERFECT BIJOU has been the work of considerable tact and judgment. It is almost imperceptible, arising from the constant occupation of the mind in admiring and beholding tile scenery around. The prolific array of American shrubs is seen in proud competition with the plants from Harlem. From the elevated spot, in these woods are seen the Castle of Blaize, and the ruins of Mr. Cave's and Ragland Castle; indeed There is nothing left to fancy's guess, You see that all is loveliness. By way of conclusion it should be' remarked that, in spite of wintry winds, the full growth of the Plantations excludes the possibility of its penetrating to the abode, Thy ensemble to which the Severn Property puts in an irresist ibleclaim is perfect. It would puzzle ingenuity to discover a solitary fault.

J. J. HOPE JOHNSTONE, Chairman. JOHN 2B, Parliament street, Westmi NARR, Secretary. nster, May 14, 1846. CALEDONIAN EXTENSION RAILWAY. The Committee of Management have the satisfaction of an nouncing to the Shareholders, that the Bill for incorporating the Company having passed Standing Orders, has been introduced into the House of Commons, and will be forwarded through Parliament with the least possible delay. A Meeting of the Shareholders has been called, in accordance with the Sessional Orders recently passed by both Houses of Parliament, at which it is necessary that one-third of the capital of the Company should be represented. Shareholders who are unable to be present are requested to lodge their Scrip with any of the following parties, who will give a receipt for the same, and return the Scrip after it has been produced to the Meeting, viz. : Mr. John Marr, Secretary to the Company, 28, Parliament -street, Westminster ; Messrs. Hope and Oliphant, W. S., Princes -street, Edinburgh; Messrs. Grahame, Maxwell, and Co., St. Vincent-street, Glasgow. In consequence of the works being now limited to the Western Extension, the Directors will be enabled either to reduce the amount of the shares or to restrict the sum to be called upon each to a very considerable extent. , The project, as D OW limited, consists, first, of the Branch from Lesmahagow to the Clydesdale Junction Railway at Hamilton, opening a direct communication from the most valuable mineral field in the Nest of Scotland to the city of Glasgow, from which a very large return may be expected, as:the gas coal of Lesmahagow is well known for its superior quality, and for that description of coal there is now an unlimited demand for exportation, as well as for home consumption. The funds already in the hands of the Di rectors will be applied, in the first instance, to the construction of this line. The other portions of the line will open a direct communication in conjunction with the Caledonian Railway from the important town and neighbourhood of Ayr, with Edinburgh on one hand, and Carlisle and the manufacturing districts of England on the other. These lines also pass through extensive mineral fields, and the local traffic will be considerable, but the Directors do not look on the im mediate formation of these works as equally pressing, inasmuch as the traffic cannot be completely developed until after the com pletion of the Edinburgh branch of the Caledonian Railway. Under these circumstances it will not be necessary to press incon veniently on the shareholders by early or frequent calls. A question will come before the meeting as to the propriety of inserting a clause in the Bill, authorising the Directors to allow in terest on the amount of calls from the date of payment. J. J.

Hammond, a nd Mr. Young, of the Yarmouth Board of Guardians; and Mr. Weston (Vice Chairman), Mr. Blandford. and Mr. Boswell, of the Southampton Board, had an interview with the Hon. H. Manners Sutton, Under Secretary of State, at the Home office, to submit certain objections to the Bth clause of the Poor Removal Bill, now before Parliament, which, they re presented, would have the effect of adding more than one third to the number of persons entitled to claim relief in the above places, and to urge the institution of an inquiry into its general operation. The Honourable Secretary paid great attention to the statements of the deputations; he admitted the subject was one of very great importance, and promised it should receive the best consideration of the Government. PRINTING MACHINE INDEX.—It gives us pleasure to notice a very simple yet ingenious piece of mechanism, the invention of Mr. Edward Strong, machine manager at Messrs. Cox's, printers, Queen. street, Lincoln's Inn. It is generally known that machines are used principally on account of the large quanti`jes of printed sheets now re quired for the enormous and 'ncreasing number of rea ders which of late years sprung up. It need not be won dered at, therefore, that mistakes do occur with those wha have the duty of, giving out the paper, or those who pat them into quires after coming from the machine. The in tention of Strong's Printing Machine lacier is, therefore, to register the number of sheets printed, and this it does accu rately and with facility up to 100,000. When it iscontshie dered that 100 copies can be printed in ten minutes at a p slow e rs, machine, will b e the immediatelyutil i t3•, perceived. especially Itthe i ca s es gratifying of ntsgo ss simplifying p t I l l i e fy w i n o g rk l u i i i s a nl labours; all u ;t r h n en i tiningd more this r iatstne creditablen atlilo naddition t to o th l e ir m . to p r i n ting machine is o from its simplicity. _ - --- RUINOUS EFFECT OF FREE TRADE.—Notwithstand ingJameswere received, the clamour raised aga'nst Sir Robert Peel's free-trade measures, scarcely a farm falls out of lease that is not readily relet at a consi derable advance.
