This being accomplished, C. Dotesio's gild secure st et , was with 26,0001. more to follow in the school of taste, secure the genius and 1 mg-tried experi nee of the first uphol ,7ers and tapissiers of the two great metropolises, and he has ever `anon been gratified by the universal exclamation that he has by .8 exertion produced AN ENSEMBLE QUITE PERFECT. co n P r imary object now is, however, to state that in spite of such a B stell atiun of splend our , com f or t i n the most comprehensive form i n % be found to preside throughout every department ; he will append uth ich e fact, not a little important to make known, that his charges, Aft, " a re Moderate, fixed, and including every kind of attention and 1104 da nee, are form e d u p on a sca l e th a t w ill not exceed any other or tavern that seems worthy of a comparison. The motto he '44 a dopted will he SPLENDOUR, COMFORT, AND ONLY AN obse n ADEQUATE REMUNERATION, d t ..„,ong that the grand Chef, with the first and best troop of artiste 0 - Ttne that co ul6l be found in England and France, are now en brir to render that department of the Royal Hotel unique, sad ha,.. c e- „anY other public or private establishment; and the Wines ittid gm " lw aYs been panegyrised as being recherche as money and good apartments,eu achieve, besides a variety of small and large cheerful entry commanding beautiful views of Windsor Castle and the th __ round, suitable to accommodate all parties and companies ; ;7' 5 are three noble Coffee-rooms with every comfort, where a cup :.", a mutton chop, or a moderate repast will be given of the , o ', ll. ,,fest quality, in the best style, and on terms not pposed to its — " u urillg contemporaries. Wedding parties will find at the Royal nicety of comfort suitable for the occasion, combined thegreatest privacy. tiZtaconclusiOn, C.

This perfect lamp fitted to persons' own pedestals, for 23 shillings, all complete. To be seen burning at Clark's Lamp Depot, 447, West Strand (op osite Warren's Blacking Manufactory).

The material is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama Wool, In its fashion it is neither neglige nor de trop, but whilst the proportions of the figure are shown to advantage, it does not in the least degree encumber. free movement, worn either riding or walking. H. J. and D. Nicoll, sensitive to the importance of that wade mecum—the outside coat, in a climate so change able as that of Great Britain, would not submit the Registered perfect. It cannot comprolnise that characteristic of an English Paletot to the public, MI themselves were satisfied of its being gentleman—the unassumed neatness of his attire ; as a wide ex tended sale is sought, the price is Two Guineas.

LRAILWAYS. —At a Meeting of the Inhabitants of the city of Lincoln, held in the Theatre, on Thursday, the 3d day of April, 1845, JOHN COUPLAND, Esq., in the Chair, the following resolutions were proposed, seconded, and carried unani mously : That petitions to both Houses of Parliament in support of the lines of railway favourably reported upon by the Board of Trade be pre pared for the signature of the citizens generally, and that the Right Hon. the Earl of Winchilsea be requested to present the peti ion to the House of Lords, and that the Members for this city be requested to present the one to the House of Commons. That the conduct of the Mayor in reference to the meeting of the inhabitants of this city, held in the Beast-square yesterday, in de claring that the show of hands on the resolutions moved and s conded on behalf of the London and York and the Cambridge and Lincoln and Direct Northern Railways respectivey was in favour of the London and York Line, and against the Cambridge and Lincoln and Direct Northern Lines, was most partial, unfair, and untrue. That this Meeting condemns the hiring of great numbers of la bourers and poor men to attend at the county Meeting, held in the Castle-yard, on Friday, the 28th ult., and also the attendance at such Meeting of a great number of persons who were not inhabitants of the county of Lincoln, but of an adjoining county, by which means a majority was fraudulently obtained, on the show of hands, in favour of the London and York Railway, which majority is calcu lated to mislead the Legislature and the public ; it being notorious that a great majority of the freeholders and inhabitants of the county of Lincoln are strongly in favour of the lines of railway re commended by the Board of Trade, and against the London and York scheme. That similar means of hiring strangers from among the labouring and poor men in the county was adopted by the promoters of the London and York Railway at the Meeting of the inhabitants of this city, held in the Beast-market yesterday, by which the voice and opinions of the citizens were attempted to be suppressed. That the foregoing resolutions be published in "The Times," "Morning Chronicle," "Morning Herald," " Sun," and " Globe," London newspapers, and in all the county newspapers. (Signed) JOIIN COUPLAND, Chairman. The Chairman having left the chair, a vote of thanks to him was carried by acclamation for his fair and impartial conduct in the chair. A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER, having a large and attached connexion with DRAPERS, UPHOL STERERS, &c., will be shortly open to an Engagement ; or could accept of a Commission in either Woollens, Linens, Cabinet Furni ture, Glass, Paper-hangings, Floor-cloths, Carpets, &c., in the East, West, and Midland Counties.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. REPORT OF THE RAILWAY DEPARTMENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE ON THE SCHEMES FOR EXTENDING RAILWAY COMMUNICATION NORTH OF LEEDS, IN THE WEST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE, AND IN THE COUNTY OF DURHAM. Railway Department, Board of Trade, Whitehall, March 31, 1845. The Board constituted by the minute of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, for the trans action of railway business, having bad under considera tion the following schemes deposited with the Railway Department for extending railway communication north of Leeds, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, and in the county of Durham, viz.:— Hull and Bridlington Branch Railway; Harrogate and Ripon Junction ; Leeds and Thirk; Middlesborough and Redcar Railway; Newcastle and Darlington and Brandiing Junction Extensions; Richmond (Yorkshire) Railway; Sunderland, Durham, and Auckland Union Railway; Wear Valley; York and North Midland and Harrogate; York and North Midland, Bridlington Branch ; have decided on submitting the following report thereon for the consideration of Parliament. We first proceed to notice the Railways projected to supply the district lying between the towns of Leeds and Thirsk, viz.:--- The Leeds and Thirsk Railway, the Harrogate and Ripon Junction, and the York and North Midland and Uarrogate Railway. At present tlfeloWn Of - Leeds lias - hO railwaycoriimii nication with the north but by means o f the circuitous route afforded by the Midland Railway as far as Nor manton, the York and North Midland Railway from Normanton to York, and the Great North of England Railway from York to Darlington. The district► .so lying to the west of these lines, comprising the towns of Knaresborough, Harrogate, and Ripor, together with several smaller, but not unimportant places, are still un supplied with any railway communication. '1 he situation of the town of Leeds renders it difficult to be approached by any line from the north, and the country intermediate between Leeds and Thirsk is of an unfavourable character as regards the construction of railways; so that while it was assumed by engineers to be necessary to obtain good gradients although at a great sacrifice of labour and expense, parties were de terred from encountering the difficulties which presented themselves. In 1835, when the project of the Great North of Eng land Railway was conceived, Leeds was the point to which the projectors of that scheme looked as the best terminus of their line. After a careful examination of the district, the parties who were anxious to accomplish this object were. however, alarmed at the appearance of the surveys and cross-sections, and abandoned the diffi cult route to Leeds for the more easily constructed line to York. subsequently, difficulties as to money pre vented the renewal of the project; but these having ceased, the three companies which we have named desire to occupy the district. Commencing at Leeds, the Leeds and Thirsk line runs nearly parallel to the Bradford and Leeds Railway, for above 4f miles, then gradually bending towards the north-east, it crosses the river Wharfe, passes between Harrogate and Knaresborough, throwing out a branch to Harrogate, 2 miles 15 chains in length, and another branch to Knaresborough, 1 mile 40 chains in length ; then passing by Ripley, and close to Ripon, it crosses over the Great North of England Railway, to which it is joined by a curved branch, and enters the town of Thirsk at a distance of 39f miles from Leeds. The main line and the branches together comprise about 46f miles o railway to be made. The Harrogate and Ripon Junction, when first pro jected, had for its object the connexion of the towns of Harrogate, Knaresborough, and Ripon, with the Great North of England Railway, in order to give these places access to the north for coals from the Auckland Valley, and to York for general traffic. Commencing at the Raskelf station of the Groat North of England Railway, it pursues a direct course to near Boroughbridge, whence it throws off a branch to Ripon. From near Borough bridge its course is direct to Knaresborough, near which town it crosses the Nid, and terminates close to High Harrogate. It appears that the Great North of England Railway Company, who are the promoters of this scheme, being fearful of the Leeds and Thirsk Railway interfering with their traffic, and not coming to terms with the projectors of that scheme, examined the country between Knares borough and Leeds, and they allege that a line which they have discovered through it will be far better, in every respect, than that which has been proposed by their rivals. They are not in a condition to meet the Parliamentary requirements for this session, bat at a general meeting of the proprietors, resolutions were passed to the effect, th a t i n th e event f Parliament sanc tioning the Harrogate and Ripon Junction scheme, they were prepared to undertake the extension of that line to Leeds, so as to form a junction with the Midland, the Leeds and Bradford, and such other railways as might terminate in a joint station in that town ; and further, the directors were authorised to take such steps as might be necessary for the purpose of applying to Parliament, in the year 1846, for power to carry the project into operation. The York and North Midland and Harrogate Railway is projected by the York and North Midland Company, and it proceeds through the same district of country as the line for which they applied to Parliament last ses sion ; the principal difference being at the termini, as the line of last session left the York and North Midland Railway at Bolton Percy, and terminated at Knaresbo rough Old Spa, about midway between Harrogate and Knaresborough. The present proposed line commences at the Church Fenton station, on the York and North Midland Rail- way, and terminates near the Brunswick Hotel, at Har- rotate ; passing in its course Tadcaster, Wetherby, and Spofforth. Thus we have three distinct schemes, which must be considered, more or less, as competing with each other. The Leeds and Thirsk line partially competes with the Ripon Junction, for the traffic northwards from Harro- gate, and- directly competes with the more extended scheme of the Great North of England Railway between Leeds and Raskelf ; while southwards from Harrogate, an indirect competition may be said to exist between the substantive schemes of the Leeds and Thirsk line, and the York and North Midland Branch to Harrogate, and the less matured scheme of the Great North of England Railway Company. The accompanying map explains the geographical cir cumstances of these projects. With regard to the Leeds and Thirsk line, as com pared with the line from Leeds to Rask@lf, it will be seen that the former approaches to within three or four miles of Utley, a place of some importance ; it passes through Ripley, and places Ripon upon the main line, but affords only indifferent accommodation to Knaresborough, and avoids Wetherby and Boroughbridge altogether. The Great North of England scheme places Knares borough and Boroughbridge on the main line, and gives a reasonable connexion with Ripon by means of the branch to that town, but does not supply Harrogate quite so well as the Leeds and Thirsk line, and altogether avoids Otley and Ripley. The chief difference, however, between the two lines is to be found in their engineering characters, and con sequently in their cost respectively. The number of miles of new Railway which each will have to make is as follows : Leeds and Thirsk. M. CH. Main line 39 40 Branch to join the Leeds and Bradford Railway Ditto „ alternative 1 36 Ditto „ ditto Branch to Knaresborough 1 40 Ditto to Harrogate 2 15 Ditto to join the Great North of Eng land Railway Total 46 30 Or The Great North of England Project. M. CH. Main line to Harrogate . 22 Branch to Ripon 5 20 Proposed Extension to Leeds Total 37 78 Hence there is a saving of 8 miles 42 chains of new rail way by the latter scheme, over the former. The gradients are indifferent in both ; nor is ther e t them inae there respect.Nisillbeone tunnel On the much Leeds t a o n 3,195 yards, and another 100 yards in length, an d, on c d h T " h s i e rsk be main tween the branch, one of 913 yards; whereas, on the extension from Knaresborough to Leeds by the Great North of England Railway scheme, there is only one tunnel, and that of 1,706 yards in length, which gives a saving of 2,248 yards of tunnelling in favour of the latter scheme. The Leeds and Thirsk Railway involves viaducts to the extent of 1,168 yards. The lengths of the viaducts on the extension from Knaresborough to Leeds are not given; but on the whole line they will be less than on the Leeds and Thirsk, which crosses the River Crimple at a much higher elevation, and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, as well as the River Aire twice, while the Great North of England line only crosses it once: in this re spect, however, there may not be any great difference between the two projects. With regard to the earthworks: those on the Leeds and Thirsk Railway for 16 miles are very heavy, as there are cuttings of 79. 103, 70, and 56 feet in extreme depth, including the approaches on each side of the two tunnels before mentioned, and embankments of 80, 79, 63, and 83 feet in extreme height, including those on each side of the viaducts; for 8 miles they are about an average, for 5 miles rather under an average, and for 8 miles they are very trifling; making altogether 37 miles of railway exclusive of tunnels, viaducts, and branches, to be con- aCid • ‘,/ t • /1.K.••", • \ - L. • t.

For the improvement of the main line about 21 miles of new railway will be required ; for the Durham and other branches, about 31 miles ; and for the extension to Bishop Auckland, about 91 miles. Several coal-fields will be opened out by this project, and railway accommodation will be afforded for the transit of coal towards the port of Sunderland, as well as for passenger and other traffic between Bishop Auckland and Newcastle, Shields and Sunderland. At present the Stockton and Darlington Railway has an extension, termed the Weardale Railway, which passes through Bishop Auckland, serving that district, and supplying the neighbouring collieries with transit for coal to the mouth of the Tees, at a very low charge. But there are collieries in the district near to which it has not been possible to bring the Stockton and Darling ton Railway, whose owners desire an outlet for their coals, either at Sunderland or Hartlepool. Considering, therefore, that the proposed line will ac commodate collieries now either only partially accommo dated, or wholly unaccommodated ; that it may be made at a moderate cost ; that there is a prospect of its proving remunerative to the projectors, and that the alterations of the original line are very desirable, we are induced to report that there are no public reasons which, in our opinion ought to be decisive against the scheme. The Newcastle and Darlington and Brandling Junc tion Extensions are three in number : The first is at Darlington, and is for the purpose of giving additional accommodation at the station. The second extension is 5 miles 1 chain in length. It leaves the Brandling Junction near the Pelaw station, and joins the Durham Junction Railway . at Washington station, cutting off a very acute angle in the intended main trunk line by the east coast to Scotland, and eflect ing a saving in the distance of fully two miles. Itsi curves and gradients are favourable, and the work will be light. The third extension is only 52 chains long, at Monk. wearmouth, and is intended chiefly for a mineral traffic ; it establishes a connexion with i the river Wear by an in cline of 1 in 5, which takes t out of the character of a passenger line on that particular part. We do not know that any reasons exist which ought to prevent these extensions receiving the sanction of Parliament. ln Report conclusion, w of the se e begt drawo el ct Committee attention to o the f in which it is stated, in re commen di ng that repor l ps t a s tasysreaage should of Fifth , etby s b c e h m em ad e s e , t , o , TPiairaltianmon such thisreport be held upon t o railway pre. indice the cl a i ms o f pr i vate persons, the examination of which should be altogether reserved to the Houses of the Legislature." In submitting to Parliament, in conformity with the recommendations of that Committee, the results at which we have arrived, with a view to the information and assistance of Parliament in forming a judgment upon the schemes in question, in so far as our report may be available for that purpose, we are anxious that it should be distinctly understood that we have arrived at these results solely upon public grounds, and to the exclusion of all considerations how far such results might require to be modified by a due regard for private rights and interests.

FATAL GUN ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday morning two boys, sons of Thomas Jones, Esq., of Rowley, one about thirteen years, the other not more than eight years of age, were out shooting in a field near the house. The eldest having got the ram-rod fastened in the barrel of the gun, the youngest came to his assistance, and was pulling at the ram-rod, the eldest having hold of the stock of the gun, when, unfortunately, the gun went off, literally sending the rod through the body of the youngest. The unfortunate sufferer was not dead at the time we received this informa tion, but not the slightest hope is entertained of his recovery. —Ten Towns' Messenger. FUNERAL OF SIR TROMAS POTTER, BART.—The funeral of this much respected Baronet took place last week at Ardwick Cemetery, near Manchester. The procession which followed the deceased to the burying-ground was with the exception of the one which paid a similar tribute o respect to the late Dr. Dalton, the largest ever known i n Man cheater. !,/*" 10-1 miles of heavywork. 6 miles about an verage. 3 miles easy. 8 miles very easy. From this it is manifest, that the earthworks on the Leeds and:Thirsk line would far exceed inextent those on the line proposed by the Great North of England Railway Company. It is clear, therefore, that the cost of the Leeds and Thirsk line would be much more than the cost of the line proposed by the Great North of England Company (every important consideration, because the traffic between Leeds and Thirsk, and in the intermediate district, is not so great as to justify any outlay beyond such as may be absolutely necessary to accomplish the end in view), while the accommodation offered by the latter is almost, if not quite, as great, on the whole, as by the former. Under these circumstances, we are of opinion, there are public reasons which justify us` in recommending that the Leeds and Thirsk scheme should be postponed. The Harrogate and Ripon Junction is a line which may be constructed at a small cost, and would enable the towns of Ripon, Boroughbridge, Knaresborough, and Harrogate, to participate in the advantage which has been conferred by the Great North of England Railway on the places near which it passes, in respect of coal brought from the Auckland Valley. If the line were constructed, the price of this necessary article would be reduced from 15 to 25 per cent. below its present price at these places. But sanctioning the scheme in question would be tan tamount to placing a barrier against any other project for giving direct and extensive railway accommodation between Leeds and the north, except by that which has been contemplated by the Great North of England Rail way Company. A delay would allow of the country being more carefully examined, and a ccmprehensive measure, less costly, and affording greater accommoda tion than either, might be brought forward. We are, therefore, of opinion, that there are public reasons which are sufficient to induce the postponement, for the present at least, of the Harrogate and Ripon Junction. We have stated the general direction which is pro posed to be taken by the York and North Midland and Harrogate Railway; its gradients are, on the whole, unfavourable, especially on one part, where there is a confirmed inAine of , 4rtblielsr-„Ygning. , fratri itillTcto 1 in 101, excepting on an intervening portion of 1 in 161, the last being too shert to effect any useful break in the incline. There is one viaduct 300 yards long, and 118 feet high. Of the earthworks, one mile is very heavy, 11 miles are about an average, and seven miles are light. Were this the only railway project in the district, we should be of ()pinion that there would be no public rea sons which ought to be decisive against it ; it accommo dates Tadcaster, Wetherby, and Spofforth, and it gives reasonable accommodation to persons visiting Harro gate from the south and from the east ; but, as it is a partially competing line with the other two, a less com prehensive measure than either of them, and if sanc tioned now might lead to the town of Leeds being left without railway communication to the north, we are of opinion that the York and North Midland and Harro gate Railway should likewise be postponed. The Richmond (Yorkshire) Railway is a line of an inexpensive character, in length 9 miles 57 chains. It proposes to leave the Great North of England Railway a short distance to the south of the Tees, and to termi nate at Richmond; it will be worked by the Great North of England Railway. We have examined the traffic tables which have been presented to us by the promoters, and they appear to us to justify the undertaking. On the whole, therefore, we are not aware that any public reasons exist which ought, in our opinion, to be decisive against this scheme being sanctioned by Parliament. The Hull and Bridlington Branch of the Hull and Selby Railway is 31 miles in length : it is projected for the purpose of accommodating the towns of Beverley, Great Driflield, and Bridlington. The line will be par ticularly easy of construction, and calls for no engineer ing remarks. The traffic tables justify the outlay, and on the whole there do not appear to us to be any public reasons why the scheme: in question should not receive the sanction of Parliament. The Middlesborough and Redcar Railway is a scheme put forward by the Great North of England Railway Company, and the Stockton and Darlington Railway, Company, jointly. The line commences at the town of Middlesborough, and running along the south bank of the Tees, terminates at Redcar, a favourite watering place on the coast at the mouth of that river. It will be made at a very moderate cost: the local feeling appears to be in favour of the project ; and, on the whole, we know of no public reasons which ought to be decisive against the scheme receiving the sanction of Parlia ment. The York and North Midland (Bridlington Branch) is thrown out from the York and Scarborough Railway, which received the sanction of Parliament last year, and is now in course of construction. The branch will be about 20 miles in length: its cost will be moderate; and it seems to be a natural extension of the Scarborough Railway. Meeting the Hull and Bridlington Branch of the Hull and Selby Railway at Bridlington, it completes a useful chain of coast communication in this part of Yorkshire. We are not aware that there are any public reasons which might to be decisive against its receiving the sanction of Parliament. The Wear Valley Railway is designed chiefly to open out the upper part of the valley of the Wear, which is rich in minerals, in connexion with the Bishop Auckland and Weardale, and the Stockton and Darlington ex isting railways, and to give accommodation to Wol singham and Stanhope, which are rapidly increasing in extent and population. The main line is 10 miles 55 chains, terminating at Frosterley, and has a branch to Bishopley. 1 mile 18 chains in length. It will be worked by the railway companies which we have just mentioned, in connexion with the scheme. No public reasons have been given to us why this project ought not to receive the sanction of Parliament. The Sunderland, Durham, and Auckland Union pro ject has three objects in view; one to extend the present Sunderland and Durham Railway to Bishop Auckland, under the above title; another, to convert the original line, which has been worked in certain places with sta tionary engines, into a locomotive line, by improving the gradients and rounding off angles or sharp curves. Two short inclines, however, will still continue to be worked with stationary engines. The third is to make branches, one for the purpose rof effecting :an improved communication with the city of Durham, one to connect the present main line with the Newcastle and Darlington Railway at the Sherburn station, and one to improve the junction with the Hartlepool Railway in the township of Haswell. IN SUFFOLK. A PEREMPTORY SALE OF BRANDESTON HALL, IN THE ELIZABETHAN STYLE, IN THE VICINITY OF IPSWICH. WITH THE MANORS AND ROYALTIES, AND A DOMAIN OF 652 ACRES OF EXCELLENT LAND ; A RESPECTABLE TENANTRY-AT-WILL ; THE PRESENT LOW RENTAL AND VALUE AP PROACHES 1.5001. A YEAR. R. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on TUGSDAY, the 17th of June, at Twelve, by direction of the Mortgagee and Trustees, for absolute sale (the Court of Chancery having cleared away all difficulty, and cleansed the title from doubt or uncertainty), A SINGULARLY IMPORTANT FREEHOLD PROPERTY, of which historical record traces the creation from the year 1530 as THE BRANDESTON HALL ESTATE. The Hall has invariably been the subject of great admiration— its outward form is modelled in the TASTE AND STYLE OF OUR QUEEN ELIZABETH. ;t is seated on a lawn which approaches THE RIVER DEDEN, AND IS WELL SUPPLIED WITH FISH. Its meandering stream is seen gantry glidi.ig through the whole estate, offering occasional relief in dry seasons, and always capable of irrigating the lands. THERE IS AN EXCLUSIVE RIGHT OF FISHING FOR FIVE MILES. THE PA RK.LIKE GROUNDS PRETTILY TIMBERED, and beautifully wooded, are scattered around in pleasing negligence, and the Mansion is seated under the fostering wings of the ancient church, its close ally. There are prolific gardens, lawn, and plea sure-grounds, which will not be the worse for a little tact in restor ing them to their pristine state. Mr. Robins, in pursuing his undeviating course of candour, desires it to be understood that, although a considerable outlay has taken place, much remains to be done, and a lady gifted with tact and judgment would agreeably employ a little of her leisure in decorating the interior. The situation is really very picturesque, and quite beautiful, to a hich may be appended THE MANORS OF GREAT EXTENT AND PROFIT, MANORIAL RIGHTS, PRIVILEGES, AND IMMUNI. TIES, THE ROYALTIES, AND ALL ITS CONSEQUENTIAL ADVANTAGES; independently of which, a court is held annually to receive a con siderable income from the FINES AND QUIT-RENTS, WHICH ARE ARBITRARY. THE VALUABLE FREEHOLD DOMAIN EXTENDS TO SIX HUNDRED AND FIFFY-TWO ACRES of first-rate pasture, meadow, corn, and turnip lands, lying in a complete ring.fence, divided into SIX SNUG AND VERY COMPACT LITTLE FARMS, with suitable buildings and good tenants, who will all bebut too happy to continue at the present low rental. The portion unlet with the Manor House, is 77 acres, including the park and pleasure.. grounds, woods, and plantations. The annual produce and value will approach FIFTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR. The appearance of the estate should be seen to be properly appre ciated ; nothing throughout the country can look better, or prove more authoritatively the superiority of the soil. And THE WOODLAND SCENERY is so very beautiful that nothing in the vicinity can be assimilated " Here verdant pastures wide extended lie, And yield the grazing herd exuberant supply, Luxuriant waving in the wanton air, Here golden grain rewards the peasant's care." The distance from London, althou g h 80 miles, is reduced to a three or four hours' ride by the Eastern Counties Rail road. The markets are everywhere excellent. Lots of brick earth, with a kiln on the property well secluded, indeed the property is so full of advantages, that although Mr. Robins has taxed his in genuity, it has really been in vain to find an opportunity to reduce the slight colouring he has given to the landscape, and he concludes by confidently recommending it as one of the safest investments in the county.
