That each such Share of 15/. shall, when so issued, be credited with the deposit of ten shillings, as having been paid thereon. The Committee with the greatest confidence appeal to the Share holders, collectively sad individually, whether the terms of this aural• gamation be not far preferable for their interests to those announced by the Directors of the London and York Company on the sth of may, as having taken place with the Direct Northern Company. The advertisement of the London and York Company, calling for the Scrip to be brought in and indorsed with the terms of amaiga tion with the Direct Northern Company, Is evidently for the purpose of informing Parliament what number of assents to that amalgama tion have been given. •In like manner, and for the like purpose the Committee request the Shareholders to produce the Scrip to their Com mittee, at No. 4, Sise-lane, accompanied, to save time, with a me morandum stating the name and address of the holder, the quantity of the Scrip, and the distinguishing numbers ; and, on these being compared and found correct, the Scrip will be marked, so as to secure the holder the benefit of the amalgamation With the Eastern C ount i es C o mpany, which is preferable in a peouniary point of View, and equally gUaranteed and certain.

R. GEORGE ROBINS is directed by Mr. BENCRAFT, the Patentee, to OFFER FOR SALE, with out reserve, at the Auction Mart, on Tnoasnsy, afTwelve. An INVALUABLE INVENTION, and one that, as soon as it be comes generally known, presents a certain fortune. This invaluable PATENT is introduced to public competition because Mr. Bencraft, the sole inventor, is desirous now to retire from the trouble that is necessarily attendant on supplying the present great dentsnd for home and foreign orders. ' It is so mixed up with comfort and safety, that every man devoted to horse exercise will feel that he owes debt of gratitude to the Inventor, so great as to be almost beyond praise. It is called BENCRAFT'S PATENT SADDLE. Its properties and advantages are so apparent, yet so numerous, that a very few will be noticed here, yielding, it is believed, every possible information the most sceptical can desire. A complete pro tectiOn is secured to the spine by means of arched springs, which transfer the rider's weight to the ribs of the horse, the seat of his greatest power, enabling the horse to carry his burden with greater facility and increased speed. A single examination of the horse's back after hard riding will confirm these useful facts. The rough paces of some horses is effectually prevented or neutralised by the intermediate action of the spring. The adaptation of the springs will not in the least degree interfbre with the shape or seat of the saddle. Mr. Tilbury, of the New- road, will show the saddle, and explain the principle, adding to this short statement one hundred important facts by way of illustration, and so convincing that he must be a bold man who would gainsay one of its advantages. Many of the nobility, especially those connected with the turf, may be referred to, whose testimonials will very far exceed the moderated statement in this announcement." The following extract, we quote from the " Veterinarian," for February, 1845 : "We have no hesitation whatever, in saying, that persons who complain of the hardness or want of elasticity of our common sad dles, will find in Mr. Bencraft's a springy and comfortable seat. Neither the old gentleman nor the invalid horseman will any more have occasion to resort to stuffed pads or quilted seats for ease and comfort ; they will both find all they desire astride the spring seated saddle, and they will probably find the difference between it and the common saddle the greater the more they have to complain of the rough bone-setting motion of their hackneys. In conclusion, we imagine we shall be doing the horseman disposed to, or the subj ec t o f rupture, an especial service by recommending to his notice one of Mr. Bencraft's patent saddles." Particulars, fully describing its principal advantages, and intro facptsaease to wil e i n o d r ea o v u o gh ur t to o i p n o c a l a in es e a th it o , s m e w ay ho be desir nad e to d a u t rich e g l i e n i t r g . sueha pleasing Tilbury's, taNew-road; railway the Auction Mart; and in Covent garden. It really does appear that an immense income will be realised by giving publicity to this Invaluable Invention. The Inventor has announced the SALE of IT purely because his other avocations oc cupy so much of valuable time, that he cannot supply one-half of the present demand both for home and foreign orders. The following is a short extract from Mr. GEOIIGr - RITBINW3 description to the inv o ent : "An INVALUABLE INVENTION, and one that, so soon as it be comes generally omes- t g h r e ea ,, t s ast r o un b: ne known, will present the means to arrive at a certain horse exercise will feel that he owes a debt of gratitude Iderruvet.i to is so mixed up with comfort and safety, that every man al it m ev o i s e t w b7 f o o n t d A pr p ai tt s l 7. lB l 4 t 4 is . called " Has anybody got a without a dread of his loosening great yaw-boned horse, that he never motmts that the moment he puts him m ing i his teeth, or an inward consciousness spent on his toilet will be ntoa trot, the labour of the last half hourwith such a horse ? Then send him, completely nullified ? Is there any man have a mime, and itlrwe want sow end him, give lum to us ;we " Why, sir, I have just the sort sof4tt i ,horse lint t on. horse you Gescrine, which I should be disposed to part with, though I think he would hardly suit you ; for, between ourselves, he'd shake every idea out of your head, and every bone out of your body, otherwise— "Oh ! my dear fellow, leave that to us. We'll undertake to ride Shake-my-rags' to-morrow morning, with only a plain snaffle in his mouth, and our new saddle on his back, to Windsor ; dispatch a beef- , steak with ' mine host of tha Garter,' and be in town again by six without fatigue, stiffness, or soreness. I " Has anybody got a fiery, long-striding, raking little devil of a pony, that it's quite a pleasure to see rattling along, but an absolute torture to be upon ? If any unfortunate man has such a blessing, and has already worn out his patience in endeavouring to cope with it, let him start with all speed for our office, and we'll not only show him a saddle, tut give him all the necessary information as to where he may procure one like it ; and, if he don't like it—pony and saddle, the first time he tries 'em together, he must be a fellow there ` no pleasing. " Nimrod, in his celebrated `Q. It.' Turf article, says—' Go to Newmarket for a seat ,' but we say—' Go to Mr. Bencraft for a seat and a saddle too—a saddle that you can't help feeling at home in—a saddle built on no selfish one-sided principle, but that benefits your horse equally with yourself— nay, a saddle that has power sufficient of itself to carry you cleverly over a four-foot wall, when all the jump is taken out of Veteran, and all the jumping powder worked out of his master. _ . . " But a truce to joking, in which strain we fear that we may bays already gone too far. A trial is all Mr. Bencraft desires; and, from experience, he has good reason for thinking that the first will not be the only saddle of his pattern introduced in an establishment. Of us, however, he needs but little assistance, while he possesses the un qualified and strongest testimonials of approval from many of the highest, eldest, and best sportsmen— amongst others, the late Lord Lynedoch, Lord Forteseue, Lord William Lennox, Mr. Spooner, of the Royal Veterinary College, and Mr. Davis, huntsman to her Majesty's stag hounds. Nimrod we ourselves heard speak frequently in favour of it." The following are a sample only of a host of testimonials, enough to fill a 'volume : From the Right Hon. Earl Fortescue. My dear Sir,—l cannot refuse myself the satisfaction of tering you how much I am pleased with your patent saddle, which I used for the first time a few days ago. From the principle on which it is constructed, 1 never doubted its efficacy for the relief and protection of the horse's back ; but I was not prepared for the great increase of comfort which the elasticity of the seat gives to the rider, and which must be particularly felt in a day's hunting, or a long jourhey on the road. I am, dear Sir, faithfully yours, FORTESCUE. Stephen Bencraft, Esq. From the Right Hon. Lord Lynedoch. London, May 10, 1847. Dear Sir,—Since I had the pleasure of seeing you, I have rode again upon the saddle sent me up by your orders, which is not so full in the back part es what I generally use ; but that objection has nothing to do with the merit of your invention, which I very much approve of, and shall not fail to continue to point out to my Mends. In the event of a long journey or a hard day's work, it must obviously be of essen tial advantage to both horse and rider. I remain, dear Sir, very truly yours, LYN EDOC I I. S. Bencraft, Esq. From C. Spooner, Esq., Professor and Lecturer of the Veterinary College. Royal Veterinary College, June 13, 1843. Dear Sir,--I have now great pleasure in stating that four months' daily use of the patent saddle, on various horses, his fully convinced me that it is admirably adapted to effect all the purposes set forth in your circular. I may further add that, if any individual who has tried your saddle shoUld still be sceptical as to the benefit afforded to the rider, I nevertheless think that the easily demonstrative fact of the protection imparted by it to the horse's spine is in itself a sufficient recommendation for its general adoption.—l am, dear Sir, very truly yours, CHARLES SPOONER. S. Bencraft, Esq. From Charles Davis, Esq., Huntsman to her Majesty's Stag Hounds. Ascot Heath, Chertsey, Nov. 25, 1843. Sir,—Having given your saddle a fair trial during two months' hunting, I have no hesitation in saying that I highly recommei d it to the sporting world in general, particularly those who have long distances to ride to cover. Its decided advantage for ease and comfort over the common saddle Is obvious ; the seat of the forner being formed of steel, retains its elasticity, whereas the common stuffing in the latter from long usage, wet weather, &c., becomes un pleasant to sit upon.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, CHARLES DAVIS. Stephen Bencraft, Esq., Barnstaple, Devon. Horse Guards, Dec. 31, 1844. Sir,—l have it in command to express his Grace's hope that your Patent Saddle may be patronised by the public ; for it possesses peculiar qualities that cannot fail to recommend it.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, JOHN MACDONALD, Adjutant-General. S. Bencraft, Esq., Barnstaple. _ . . _ Extract from the " Veterinarian," for February, 1845 : A Medal and a Prize were awarded to Mr. Benciaft's saddle at the annual meeting of the Royal Improvement Society of Ireland, at Ballinasloe, in September, 1845.

RENCRAPT IN RESPECT TO HIS SADDLE. _ _ We cannot do less than give the following, as corroborative of what Is stated in the public announcement in respect to Mr. Bancraft's invaluable patent. The authority we now quote will quiet the minds Of the most sceptical, and prove that in the multitude of every-day improvements the march of the mind has in nothing else exceeded the patent now under our consideration : Croydon, March 4, MG. Dear Sir,—lt is with peculiar pleasure that I tender the following remarks upon your highly-important inventions, viz. The l'a tent names," and " Elastic Spring Saddle." For the last twelve months I have had the hames almost in daily use, upon a variety of horses; inyjournies have been long, on roads of variable character, not unfrequently having to ascend hills of unusual activities, coarsely gravelled. These tads have perfectly convinced me that my horses have received a great boon. The distinguished features of merit are the close adaptation of the collar, and the uniformity of its pressure upon all proper seats of bearing, the patent hames admitting of such a salutary division of the points; thereby not only affording increased facilities for draught, but avoiding all abrasion. These circumstances combined have a tendency to diminish or re move a bad habit acquired by some horses called heaving, or break- ing into a sort of half canter, a sad bane with many otherwise good buggy horses. I am also able to bear testimony that by using your limed galled shoulders may be healed in the midst of work. Your elastic spring -saddle I have ridden upon, within the last nine months, some thousands of miles, the average number being f; om ten to fifteen miles per day upon the road, including two days a week severe stag-hunting; the same saddle possessing the singular quality of fitting three of my horses. " I am of opinion that concussion to the hunter carrying h!gh weight is avoided in almost endless variety, during an arduous chase, owing to the construction of your elastic spring saddle re lieving the ridge of the spine from pressure, and diffusing or equalising the burden over a more extended muscular surface; this must tell not only in speed, but I apprehend far more in a suc— cession of difficult fencing, where the animal is required, with the weight of his rider, first to elevate, secondly, to elongate, end thirdly, to land himself firmly and judiciously. : n ue , edaifftriaisoirbdleinsarpyringdeNt_enldl s arr up a o ng n th ed i , s m no us bl t e b it e ni a in gr all i m d its dt e si u: I am, dear Sir, yours truly, TIIO3fAS TURNER, dlaerrlaVptiout:m to every sportsman's sadd : ' le.

THE PET FREEHOLD ESTA TE WARWICKSHIR E OF THE COUNTY, WITH THE MANOR AND ITS EXTENSIVE RIGHTS, THE ENTIRE HAMLET OF WILLENHALL, A RESIDENCE IN THE ELIZABETHAN STYLE ; FIVE SUPERIOR FARMS, 750 ACRES, WITH A TENANTRY QUITE UNEXCEPTIONABLE. THIS FINE PROPERTY APPROACHES THE CITY OF COVENTRY, IS BOUNDED BY TWO RIVERS, AND THE TURNPIKE ROAD DIVIDES THE PROPERTY. IT IS, BESIDES, ALL TITHE-FREE, AND EXTRA•PAROCHIAL. MR. GEORGE ROBINS i s f avoufe d by in structions from the proprietor, to announce for public competion, at the Auction Mart, London, on TUESDAY, the 16th 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 be no scepticism arise 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 woods. The rates are unusually small, arising out of the fact that they are paid by a compromise with the LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANY, whose line passes through Willeuhall. 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 are unexceptionable, in fact, everything is inlthe most perfect apple-pie order. A microscopic eye could hardly discover a single thing out of place, and with it' A TENA/QTRY THAT MR. ROBINS PROCLAIMS CAN NOT BE EXCELLED TIIROUGHOUT ENGLAND; AND HEAR IT ALL YE OF LITTLE FAITH IN THE STAPLE COMMODITY OF THE COUNTRY, • " THERE IS NOT NOR HAS WHERE BEEN • AN ARREArt OF ONE GID'INEA DURtNG THE LAST TEN YEARS." It may now be asked, "Where is to be found a corresponding case ?" AND ECHO REJOINS " WHERE." In respect to the auxiliaries not immediately sought in the shape of income, it should be said THE ADJOINING MANORS ARE STRICTLY PRESERVED BY LORDS CRAVEN AND HOOD, . . as also the Baginton and Brandon property. There is an abundance of game, and field sports extend to &gentleman's fondest desire. The Estate is bounded by two large rivers (the Avon and Sowe), which furnish constant amusement to those inclined to recreate in fishing. THE ELIZABETHAN VILLA is altogether adapted to a gentleman's occupation. It probably might be improves by a finishing stroke from the hand of an artiste. There is, besides, one of the farm-honses where the proprietor would be but too happy to take up his quarters occasionallyduring the sporting season. The next point requiring a commentary is the rental—it must be premised—there are no leases. The present low rental is 1,5501, 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 ref Use 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 this was prov4d 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 CRAVEN AND LORD HOOD are close allies ; AND THE ESTATE OF THE BROTHER OF SIR ROBERT PEEL, BART. is close at hand. The farms are very productive in the soil for white crops, especially wheat and barley, with some admirable turnip land; but as dairy farms, and to fatten bullocks, they have even a higher claim. The contiguity to one of the first markets in England, and the facility to return manure, whenever the good folks of Coventry are indulged with a portion of the produce of this highly cultivated soil, are ad vantages that a good agriculturist will not overlook. And now, by way of conclusion, Mr. Robins will ask, and with earnestness (taking into the scale the great curiosity that prevails everywhere to get into good farms now-a•days), if the every day observation, resound ing now from all quarters, that THE AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITY HAVE BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT, is not rendeiell most manifest by the above unassuming recital of facts ? The plans are all but ready, and will be distributed, with a draw ing, on the plan with the Elizabethan Villa, by Mr. Phillips, jun., of Coventry. His father (the eminent practitioner of this great city) will also take the trouble to give all essential explanation, and appoint alit man to go over the estate. Particulars also of Mr. Paine, solicitor, No. 4, Furnival's Inn ; the Auction Mart, and at Mr. George Robins's offices, London. IN DORSETSHIRE, THE GREAT AND PROUD FEATURE OF THE COUNTY, THE FORD ABBEY ESTATE, WITH ITS EXTENSIVE DE- ' MESNE, AND NEVER-ENDING DELIGHTS, THE IN VALUABLE FISHERY, ABUNDANCE OF GAME, AND SPORT OF EVERY DESCRIPTION, AND, " THOUGH LAST NOT LEAST IN OUR DEAR LOVE," THE MAGNIFICENTLY FINE ABBEY, PRESENTING BY FAR THE MOST CLAS SICAL " AND CELEBRATED MONASTERY THROUGHOUT ENGLAND. THE PRESENT LOW RENTAL ARISING FROM THIS FINE PROPERTY IS ABOUT 2,0001. A YEAR. IT IS NEARLY ALL TITHE-FREE, AND THE TENANTRY BOTH WEALTHY AND RESPECTABLE. AN IMPERATIVE SALE. MR. GEORGE ROBINS feels much gratifica tion in having been preferred to OFFER to 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, of one of THE MOST MAGNIFICENT FREEHOLD INVESTMENTS THROUGHOUT ENGLAND, and in the description that necessarily must follow, Mr. Robins, without the slightest affectation, fearlessly proclaims that he ap proaches the task with fear and trembling. The only saving clause he can well seek to soften the reproaches of the enlightened and deeply-read community is alone to be found in the liberty the com poser will take with authors so highly gifted, that he must indeed be a bold man who will not yield assent to their researches. Dugdale is no mean authority, and with this, and a few introductory facts, the herculean task must be approached. THE FORD ABBEY DEMESNES are to be traced back to a very distant day, and it has ever since maintained its prcud superiority over ANY OTHER MONASTERY IN ENGLAND. It is a splendidly grand and unique building, altogether realising Lord Byron's glowing description of Norman Abbey. Au old, old monastery once, and now Still older 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 TO NEAR THREE HUNDRED FEET. The present architectural order may be dated about the time of Henry VII. ; but to describe it as it deserves is felt to be far beyond the reach of the limited capacity of the composer, and even much wiser heads would be puzzled in the attempt to do it justice—it is indeed THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THE WEST Its fame has been held in the highest veneration from generation to generation, and it is now avowed to have no successful rival amid the vast variety of monasteries to be found throughout the country. The first impression on beholding this ANCIENT AND CLASSIC PILE ie writer feels can never be obliterated from his memory ; 1 mind on the instsnt was subdued into a most devout and reli gious feeling —one of absolute wonder—mixed up with bound less 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 he awarded to it. However, these preliminary remarks must arrive at a conclu sion ; the form prescribed in the length of an announctunt 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 assistance of a very highly talented lady, to aid in thaistorical account of Dugdale by selections of her own, and guided by a judgment and cleverness that has never been held in doubt. Mr. Robins feels it is a perfect godsend to him to have had the gratification of making the acquaintance of this gifted lady. To gratify the learned and the curious in distant parts, it is proposed to append to the explanatory particulars of the Abbey 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 vs. It is 15 miles from Taunton, about 50 miles from Bristol, and within a delightful ride of 5% hours from London (and the approaching rail way through Chard will reduce it to about 4 hours). The county in which the abbey is placed will not yield to any other. The reader need not be reminded that, in days of yore, the taste of the monks In the selection of their lands was never questioned, 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 OF THE LAND was not ACCOUNTED TOO GOOD FOR THEIR REFINED TASTE This princely property is all freehold of inheritance, surrounded by a park of great beauty, finely wooded, and full of deer — The branching stag swept down with all his herd, To quaff a brook which murmured like a bird. It is adorned by THE ORNAMENTAL WATERS, THE PROLIFIC WOODLAND SCENERY, AND THE PERPETUAL WINDING OF THE RIVER AXE, Ford Abbey is seated in the vale of the Axe (so famed by the disciples of Izaac Walton for its placatory pleasures p- ue Icions trout) •-inding in serpentine beauty through It. 1 le meadows. In the park there is a never cea.11, 6 cuutritu.et,u of woods and water, struggling for the ascendancy with cascades and waterfalls, to vary the scene, sparkling with foam. 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. In the park, the soft undulating foliage is perpetually relieving and deluding the eye into a belief that it was of almost boundless extent. It imparts just such an air of tempered wildness as would gratify the lover of scenery, without offence to those who are inclined to look rather for the evidences of the superintending hand of care and culti vation. Indeed everything seems to increase the charms of a spot so rich in nature's beauties. The famed river which environs it, Lost for a space through thickets veering, But broader when again appearing." It may be asked, "WHAT MORE CAN MORTALS NOW DESIRE ?" The sporting qualities extend to everything a gentleman's heart can contemplate ; by the way THE MONKS' CELEBRATED WALK is in high preservation. And to omit a panegyric upon THE ANCIENT TAPESTRY THAT ADORNS ALL THE STATE ROOMS would approach sacrilege. It really and truly may be accounted the WONDER AND ADMIRATION OF THE WORLD. It fearlessly challenges a rival; and the writer is exceedingly desirous that the reader should not for one moment charge this description with being too vivid. He may rest assured here is no flight of fancy—it is a veri table and unassuming report. This] description, it is perceived, has already extended beyond the limits prescribed, and therefore (with lament) the writer ends this very imperfect recital, merely observing that the tenantry are very rich, very contented, and very happy, and are without one guinea of arrear; indeed, the latter word could not find a place in their, vocabulary. The rent is exceedingly low. The demesne extends to SIXTEEN HUNDRED ACRES OF RICH MEADOW, PASTURE, ARABLE, AND WOOD LANDS, NEARLY ALL TITHE-FREE, AND TAXES MODERATE. Such is a faithful narrative, and it need not be observed is very un• common ; indeed, seeing the abundance of unemployed capital (hi spite of the railway mania), and the little value of money, the present is a most influential opportunity of possessing an invest ment in land, which is doubtless preferable to all others—for, as it regards the alteration in the eorn-laws, it has been observed by Mr. Robins, in another notice of sale, a fact which every day renders more and more certain. " WE HAVE ALL BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT." There are _ - —.— MANORIAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES of considerable extent, and the estate is (all but) in a ring fence. The neighbourhood is highly respectable ; many Lords and Nobles are amongst thou who prefer to domesticate in this splendid county. Markets are everywhere abundant; in fact, Mr. Robins has taxed his ingenuity in vain to try to discover a single blemish. The late Jeremy Bentham occupied the Abbey for three years, commencing in 1815, and from thence issued many of his most celebrated works. The full description, with plans and the famed drawing of the Abbey, will be ready six weeks antecedent to the sale, and may be had at the White Lion, Bristol; White Hart, Bath; New London Inn, Exeter; the Chard Arms Hotel, at Chard; Mr. Whitaker, 12, Lin coln's Inn-fields, London ; the Castle at Taunton ; Mr. Salter, so licitor, Chard ; the Auction Mart ; and at Mr. George Robins's offices, London (at One Shilling each, this being only with a view to prevent a useless and unprofitable distrihutlon of the full particulars). WIMBLEDON PARK.—A GRAND BUILDING OPERATION — in front of the rural common, and surrounded by the splendid Park. The whole is freehold. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has been favou red with the direction of the spirited Proprietor to OFFER to PUBLIC competition, at the Auction Mart, in London, on the , at Twelve o'clock, in suitable lots, AN INVALUABLE FREEHOLD PROPERTY, and, with a view to a s afe speculation, MUST BE ACCOUNTED AS ITNRIVALLED. Around the metropolis of London there have been many projects for accomplishing SUCCESSFUL BUILDING SCHEMES," but it may be safely affirmed that one and all must hide their di minished heads when placed in competition with WIMBLEDON PARK BUILDING OPERATION, which is A FEE SIMPLE ESTATE. Almost every one must be familiar with the varied beauties Of Wim bledon and its rural Cemmon, and few could be found who do not well remember the ancient mansions so long in the distinguished oc cupation of THE DUKE OF SUTHERLAND, and recently the one, on a lesser scale, in the tenure of THE DUKE OF SOMERSET. The property intended to be represented by this feeble announce ment is a portion of THE SPLENDID PARK, TOGETHER WITH ITS MAGNIFICENT WOODLAND SCENERY, which is conspicuous in every direction. A portion only, to the eaten of about TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY ACRES, will be included in the sale. The selection of this spot is without the slightest doubt one of THE MOST ELIGIBLE THROUGHOUT ENGLAND. It exhibits a frontage to the high turnpike-road from London, Battersea and through Putney, EXTENDING ONE MILE AND A HALF, with Wimbledon Common as its natural boundary. It is intended to arrange this into lots, varying from three to ten acres in a lot, so that every ELEGANT VILLA ABODE may have its little demesne in a park where THE UNDULATION IN THE GROUNDS AND THE ORNAMENTAL WATER, present a spectacle that never can be resisted. Amongst a host of advantages, the majestic timber which gracefully adorns this earthly paradise, each lot will partake of it in proportion to the quantity he may fall in love with ; and it need hardly to be remarked that, although money is very influential in many respects, it cannot pro duce by possibility full grown trees to adorn newly ocnstructed abodes. Throughout this scene, which may almost be accounted ONE OF ENCHANTMENT, there is a quietude, and repose amid the woodland scenery, unknown to any contemporaneous situation. The beauteous scene appears interminable, and there will be quickly THREE STATIONS close at hand—Richmond, Putney, Wandsworth, all on the Southampton Railway, so that twenty minutes will be sufficient even to arrive at the post of duty in the City, while Hyde Park will be brought within ten or twenty minutes ride, The air of Wimbledon is proverbially influential in restoring valetudinarians to perfect health and lon gevity—a certain feature in this favoured vicinity. From the undu lating grounds the romantic views extend beyond Seven Oaks, over a richly wooded country, and from the highest point the beauty and interest of the landscape are almost overpowering, and it has all the allurement of the New Forest, although nearly THE GREAT METROPOLIS OF LONDON. The neighbourhood is remarkable for the high respectability of its adjoining to occupants. There are pleasure grounds in the highest order, over a rich soil of peat, wherein are myriads of rhododendrons, and every perpetual breaks through species of American plant. The p ee p s and the portion of the Park (not included in this sale) are continuous, and the umbrageous walks and drives are without end ; in line, it will be a matter to puzzle the brain of a fertile mind to discover in the catalogue of his wants, a single appendage to comfort in its most extended interpretation that is not prominent at Wimbledon Park. with a hic to accomany them Particulars, litho may be had at Sixpence eac gr h, t ap wenty-eight drawing p days prior to the Sal e, at the Auction Mart, London ; the Star and Garter Tavern , on R i c h mo nd Hill; the Royal H otel at Slough ; andat AI r. °Mem Covent-garden. r.

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, _ _ 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 why 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 PRINCIPAL PROPRIETOR, WHO IT I$ KNOWN HAS A VERY PREPONDERATING SHARE in this " LITTLE MINE OF WEALTH," and has presided over its destines for many years, at length has reached the him especially - ------- VENERABLE AGE OF EIGHTY-TWO, a period of life, which is but rarely vouchsafed to mankind, and, although in the enjoyment of excellent health, it may be conceded theefoHr CHARACTER : l t o o n ift g to the honourable proprietor, that he should have a few years un alloyed from the daily pursuit of literature and profit. It belongs to by l t f h it e k b n e o as w k lecl ed ge w t h lia t t to consistency ; indeed he has, without deviation, pursued the even tenor of his course. This Journal has always resisted every insidious years t A l N o D e , C y amidgrea t h O o N v S a l lS u TE t NI vicissitudes, e C p Y ati l i S ti T ia H t E offer to compromise its character. It has traversed its beaten path to have claimed, through good and bad report, the title ESPECIALLY BY THE " GLOBE." has been the result, it will cheer and gladden its • tpitch ins has but risen i MOTTO s aIways u CLAIMED ppaper p e cleared rto more in public estimation than at the present moment. Then.. was (and with a pur chaser an importer,* query) will suggest itself, how has it's income fluctuated, 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 profits 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 nroti A VALUE AS AT TIIE PRESENT MOMENT. The annual receipts and profits Will be given in detailln the printed Par ticulars of the Sale, which will prove this most satisfactorily. A criterion of its value may be gathered from the fact, that in 184.1, when the dividends were at the lowest, the present Proprietor purchased THREE SIXTY-SECOND SHARES FOR 2,3101. A commentary upon this would be superfluous. The paper, it Is known, is divided into • 1 SIXTY-TWO SHARES. THE VENERABLE VENDOR AT THIS SALE POSSESSES AND WILL SELL NINETEEN SHAAES. _ • nOw INFLUENTIAL AIS7) HOW VALUABLE must be the privuege 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 be 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. IN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND RECHERCHE PART OF SOMERSETSHIRE, NEARLY MIDWAY BETWEEN CLIF TON AND THE SEVERN, ONE OF THE MOST PERFECT VILLAS WITH ITS APPURTENANCES IN ENGLAND; AROUND IT ARE ITS PLEASURE-GROUNDS, A DEMESNE EXTENDING TO 50 ACRES, ALL FRREHOLD AND TITHE FREE. MR. GEORGE ROBINS h as pl easure i n s t a ti ng he has been selected to TRANSFER, without a limited price, at the White Lion Hotel, Bristol, on Thursday, the 25th of June, at One, for Two o'clock, precisely, A SINGULARLY DELIGHTFUL and altogether a MOST ELIGIBLE PROPERTY. It is well known and highly appreciated as THE SEVERN HOUSE DEMESNE, four miles from Bristol and Clifton, on the road to the splendid river Avon 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 conceded 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 be put in juxta-position with Severn House. 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 BEAUTIFUL SCENERY. It would almost wear the patience of the reader to extend the descrip tion of all the writer saw, and strived to appreciate, but it is believed a very few gleanings will suffice to call up the attention of all such as would enjoy the pure, unsophisticated air of Somerset, in a villa to which it is universally conceded, stand alone both for situation and prepossessing appearance, It is placed on a lofty and beauteous eminence, but the good sense and evident tact of the proprietor has, by means of the luxuriant shrubberies and plantations that encircle it, kept the cold winds at a most respectable distance, and in accomplishing this desideratum, it would appear that fairy land has been sought to accomplish 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 14 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 feather'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 Into the field to accomplish the de lightful ascent to be encountered from the very pretty Lodge-gate; but the reader is invoked, and with no small portion of anxiety, not to rely on 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 Somerset, is dote at hand, and becomes an auxiliary that it would be an injustice to over look. The neighbourhood is prone to good-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 great 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 valley which interposes its verdant scenery in its 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 snore than has been asserted in this brief analysis) is within four hours' pleasant drive of the metropolis of London. This delightful abode has not yet been noticed sufficiently. " THERE IS THAT WITHIN WHICH l'A SSETH SHOW." It is a building of considerable pretensions in Its outward and visible signs; and a family, although numbering very many, will find the most ample accommodation within ; it may be added, that it lacks nothing that can be understood in the comprehensive term of cam fort. The out-offices are most complete throughout, the court yard is worthy of admiration, and a sporting gentleman will find the department for his carriage and nag horses' all that ingenuity can suggest. The kitchen-gardens are very extensive, inclosed by lofty brick walls, and the soil is exceedingly prolific; 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 arming, and THE BOTANIC WORLD WILL GLEAN from these gardens considerable knowledge, being a selection in great part imported from Holland, and of the choicest specimens that that city is famed for. The scenery everywhere appears inter minable, tends to give a pleasing variety, which again, it is pro claimed, fears 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 included A SNUG LITTLE FARM-HOUSE AND BUILDINGS, giving to the industrious 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 seat of happy contentment. The progress to the summit of thiF 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 the scenery around. The prolific array of American shrubs is seen in proud competition with the plants from Holland. From the elevated spot, in these woods are seen the Castle of Blaize, and the ruins of Mr. Clive's 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, The ensemble to which the Severn Property puts in an irresist ible claim is perfect. It would puzzle ingenuity to discover a Solitary fault. It can only be seen on Thursdays and Saturdays from twelve till five o'clock, with a card, or a printed particular ofthe Sale, which will be distributed with a plan of the land, and the drawing of the resi dence (price one shilling), to be had also of Messrs.
