SALES BY AUCTION. STOKE PARK. One of England's choicest and most enviable COUNTRY SEATS, delightfully secluded in the rich, healthy district between WIND SOR, SALTHILL, and BEACONSFIELD, within an hour's ride of London by the Great Western Railway. MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON have been honoured with instructions from the Proprietor to announce his intention to DISPOSE OF this splendid and truly desirable PROPERTY (which, if no acceptable offer be previously made, will be offered to public competition in the course of the summer). Every part of the estate is in the most perfect and delightild or der, both as to its substantial repair and its tasteful decorations. It comprises a strikingly elegant and noble mansion, of the most classical and chaste Italian style of architecture, erected chiefly under the well-known taste of the late James Wyatt, 83 admirably planned as to present four beautifully designed elevations to the park (the usual out-buildings, stabling, &c., being wholly detached), with highly-dressed pleasure grounds, and a great extent of varied walks and drives, surrounded by a flue old deer park, of a remarkably sound, healthy soil, superbly timbered, and embellished by a lake and handsome stone bridge. The south front, in which are the splendid suite of libraries and drawing-rooms, commands a grand expanse of its own park and the distant country, with an un rivalled view of Windsor Castle, rising in full magnificence amidst the forest, clear of the town. The other parts open through beau tiful glades, formed by the wooded undulations of the park, to various views and objects, particularly the noble column erected to the memory of Chief Justice Sir Edward Coke (once a" resident of the place), and the monument to the poet Gras, whose grave ts in the churchyard, which, with its picturesque church, embosomed in lofty evergreens, in the northward division of the domain, adds greatly to•the interesting objects and features in the home scenery. Screened front the mansion, but protected by gravelled walks, are the walled gardens, with hothouses, pinery, &c. ; the capital stabling and coachhouses, farm and poultry yards, kennels, game larder, icehouse, &c., and near the gardens is a line wing of the old Manor-house, coinprising the favourite apartments of the Lady ,pobbtanz.as4 tha old baronial kitchen (now eonvertectlute-a racJL court), with another portion, forming a bailiff or keeper's house, with ornamental dairy and other tt,cful offices. The several ap proaches to the Mansion are by gravelled carriage roads, with ap propriate lodges. The domain offered for sale will comprise, in a perfect ring fence, nearly 500 acres, all freehold, exonerated of land tax, and nearly tithe free. It is surrounded by some of the best roads in the kingdom, its preserves and lake are fully stocked with game and fish, and It is in the centre of the royal hunt. The eleg int and appropriate fittings and furniture (with some exceptions) will be sold with the Mansion. The property can be viewed (except on Saturdays and Sundays), 11 b l u r t .

PRICE SD. this auspicious result the various wise and liberal mea sures of the Governor-General within our own domi nions have greatly conduced. Various of our allies have been induced to abolish transit duties within their terri tories. Well defined and natural lines of traffic, within which commerce shall be harassed by na fiscal impost, have been laid down along our Custom-house frontier,; and the Saugor and Nerbuddah territories have been altogether relieved of duties. Th ,e following summary, which will scarcely stand abridge ment , w i l l show at a glance what is doing in the Celestial Empire:— The following summary of events in the colony of Victoria du r i ng F e b ruary we copy from the Overland Friend of China of the 28th of that month:— . In reviewi ng t h e occurrences of the month our atten tion is at once attracted to the improved position of our countrymen resident in Canton, and we glean an im portant item of intelligence in the fact that the protec tion of their lives and property has at length been deemed a duty of sufficient importance to demand the presence of three vessels of war in the Canton river. The Hon.-Company's steamer Pluto has been stationed off the factories since the sth inst.; her Majesty's brig Childers and her Majesty's steamer Vulture being at Whampect; the latter vessel h as returned to the harbour. The necessity for this extraordinary force might have been suggested in consequ ence o f t h e C hinese New-year holidays bringing to th e c it y an extra number of villains ripe for plunder, and burning for vengeance on the foreigners. No kind of riot, however, has occurred ; an unusual tranquillity at present exists, without any likelihood of its being much dis turbed, although no freedom from insult and violence can be relied on in any of the frequented walks and thoroughfares. It has no doabt been determined that the Pluto shall be permanently stationed off the factories, and from the length of time the Childers has been at Whampoa we presume that is to be considered her station. It is a satisfactory reflection that such scenes as occurred in July last, when one successful assault of the mob might have led to a general massacre of the foreigner:, and the plunder and destruction of their houses, and innocent men are said to have been amongst the killed, arc never again likely to occur; for so far as an unguided mob is concerned, unassisted by respect able natives, the constant pretence of a small vessel of war will be quite sufficient to keep them in subjection. In our last summary we allud e d to a petition from the Chinese shopkeepers to the Gcvernor, praying for the abolition of the opium farm monopoly. As was to be expected, their petiti on was most un f avoura bly received, the answer, which was almost tantamount to an ac knowl,dgment of its baneful influence on the commerce of the island, being to the effect that the revenue de rivable from the enactment could not be dispensed with. The effects of Sir John Davis's misgovernment are every month becoming more an d more apparent; the worst predictions hare been too truly realised, and the colony is at p resent in such a state that it is difficult to foretel what may be the effects of future retrogression. In proof of the falling state of the colony a corre spondent adduces fourteen facts, which are certainly undeniable in their inference. Unfortunately there is no occasion to signalise any one fact, when from east to west of the island almost every object that meets the view only reminds the observer of the lamentable condi tion of the colony, our splendid harbour itself; so bare of shipping, being a convincing proof of the absence of anything like commercial activity; but, too fully aware of these facts, we would rather direct attention to the interrogation," How can a share of prosperity be brought back to the colony?" We fear that this question will not have due weight, even amongst those most deeply interested in the discussion, so long as its destiny is overcast by the lowering incumbency of such a ruler— the want of confidence in whom, arising out of many causes, (as an instance of one we might mention the re cent denouement in the Supreme Court), would alone pre clude that co-operation of the principal inhabitants so indispensable to ensure any good result, and hence the apathy which exists.

The chief intelli g ence we have within the last fort night reoeived from beyond the Sutlej is mainly impor tant as corrective of past misimpressions. The appre hension of danger in these quarters from the unstable nature of our arrangements, and insurrections and em barrassments of which the policy of Lord Hardinge pro vided the seeds, are one after another shown to have been utterly without foundation as the time arrives which permits the facts of the case to be given to the world. The great patriotic outburst, as the Cashmere insurrection was supposed to be, which was to involve us in countless dangers, and broils and troubles, turned out to be a mere local and temporary outbreak, of no moment whatever, arising from the treachery and personal spite of the Vizier, who, inciting a Chief to trea son with a view of keeping Ghoolab Singh from the ter ritories made over to him, became himself the victim of machinations designed for the injury of the enemy. The people, supposed to revolt at the idea of being brought under the dominion of a Seikh, had in fact been so for the space of thirty years, and were only now transferred from one Seikh to another, and never seem to have ex pressed or experienced the slightest aversion to the change. These are now long past; they had their time, and have been succeeded by further misconceptions, which have given rise to apprehensions as vague, and speculations as unfounded, as those which preceded them. The state of the Hazareh country, where diffi• culties and dangers as visionary as those supposed to en compass us in connexion with Cashmere were said to await us, became ono of the next subjects of speculation. It turns out that Lieutenant Lumsden, instead of being sent forth to make war, has been ordered on a mission of peace. The Hazarehs had risen, not against Ghoolab Singh, to whose authority they had been subjected, but against the Lahore Seikhs. These they have expelled ft om the hills and shut up in the fort of Hurkishengur, which was on the point of capitulating in April last, when relieved by a strong reinforcement from the Lahore Government just b2fore the new arrangement was concluded with the Jamoo chief. Lieutenant Lumsden was sent to smooth down past differences and to reconcile the hill-men to their enemies, and not either to make war or to subjugate them to the will of their new ruler, to which no aversion had been expressed by them. He has since then been followed by Mr. P. Vans Agnew on the same errand, and the mission has every prospect of being attended with success. Were the Government of Ghoolab Singh as indifferent and unpopular as it is re presented to be, it would be difficult 'Or it to be worse than the best of those which have preceded it. The Hill Maharaja is remorseless and avaricious enough, but he is not one whit more so than the great majority of his brother chiefs. Since our connexion with him we have had no reason to charge him with indulging in any of the infirmities usually imputed to him as hebitual. On tho other hand, he has at our suggestion emptied his dungeons of state prisoners, restored hundreds of estates that had been seiz-d upon, set his face against the burning of widows, and abolished infanticide throughout his dominions. This was more than we could persuade Ruejeot Singh to attempt after twenty years of the closest alliance with him, or than the bulk of the Go vernments in the very bosom of our dominions have in the space of centuries been induced to perform. The perfect freedom of the Queen to move about at her pleasure has in no way been interfered with, though she has been on some occasions denied the company of her son when about to proceed on pretended pilgrimages, suspected to have objects very different from those acknowledged in view. The Maha raja is himself, on all occasions, encouraged to appear in public, and is now constantly to be seen on horseback amongst his chiefs and people, instead of living in the seclusion to which he was formerly condemned. The durbar has not been forbidden to assemble on the Sab bath- day ; it was intimated that on this day British officers would not visit, receive visits, or transact busi ness, except on occasions of extreme emergency ; and the Seikhs having asked whether they might not add it to the number of their holidays, were told to do just as they pleased,—to consider it as one by all means, if not satisfied with the number already observed. The festi vities alleged to have been held in the Shalimar gardens on the anniversary of the battle of Sobraon, and with a view to commemorating our victories, occurred on an other d ty altogether, and had no object of the sort in viewl Colonel Lawrence in all these matters having invariably acted with the consideration and thought fulness for which he is so deservedly distinguished. The most cordial footing continues to be main tained betwixt us and our new allies, notwithstand- ing the intrigues of the Maharanee to interrupt the harmony which exists. The Resident gave a splendid entertainment on the 4th ult., the second of the season.

There is no fear that un der the administration of Colonel Lawrence a matter so important will be neglected, or that Dhuleep Singh will not have most carefully imparted to him all the instruc tion circumstances permit of or require. The state of the finances of the Punjaub had attracted serious atten tion, and their condition, as might have been expected, proved to be such that the most stringent system of re trenchment and economy was found indispensable. It is on these grounds, as is alleged, that Colonel Steinbach has been refused re-admission into the Seikh army, and the services of Colonel Cortlandt declined. _ It must, at the same time, be remembered, that one of the condi tions of the treaty of February, 1846, was to the effect that no European or American officers should ever be admitted into the armies of the Punjab; and that whatever may be the pretence under which these things have -occurred, we must in consistency have .en deavoured to get rid of Europeans formerly, or still in the service, as speedily as possible. Efforts have been made to settle, by comprise, as quickly as possible, the misunderstandings with the landowners in the distant provinces, chiefly arising from revenue disputes. The accounts of Futteh khan, Tawanah, apparently a sort of Vice Chancel!or of the Exchequer, were said to be in great confusion; he acknowledged a debt to Government of about 30,0001., but was found to owe them more than 70,000/. Ho had been placed under surveillance pending the inquiry into his affairs. The very talk of plots and conspiracies—where such things in reality were wont to be so abundant—is nearly at an end; and the rumour, that the life of Tej Singh was about to have been attempted on the 10th of February, is now affirmed to bare originated with that chief him self, who by this means desired to bring his supposed enemies into discredit! The good effects of the policy we are pursuing are every where becom ing apparent. Tho general feeling of security . , now becoming unirercal, is manifesting itself in the improvements of trade, at present unusually brisk, and the exhibition of productive industry, for a long time sadly dormant. Cotton as well as grain are finding their way in large quantities from our side across the river —a single merchant is said to have exported betwixt 800 and 900 camel loads; and to DIORAMA.

GROWING OF RICE It appears that the recent deficient harvest and the extensive demand, both at home and abroad, for Ameri canbreadstuff's, bas forc e d on t h e attention of the inha bitants of Trinidad the question of rice eultiva tion. not so much with the view of making it an article o f export as of rendering themselves less dependent than they are at present for a supply of food. communications lately received from that itlaria it is stated that the cultivation was introduced mat y years ago, but that the production has never been ca r _ tied beyond a small surplus of the consumption of t a e growers, the reason of which is attributed to the gr att amount of manual labour (in the absence of machinery) r. quired to separate the paddy or the husk. As ftIONI this cause the growth is restricted, the parties advee r ing an extension of the cultivation seek the aid of -,,h e colonial Government to set up a rice mill of suffici ant size and power, and to farm it out when erected i tender to the highest competition, a price, howe . v e r. being fixed at which the lessee shall be bound to elm - as and re deliver all rico brought to him. It is thong et that this plan would have the beneficial effect of induci ag other parties to erect mills, when, of course, the cm vernment, if satisfied with the experiment as far as it mid been carried, could either continue to work their oesvn, or dispose of it to the best customer. That the growing of rice with the facilities afforded by machinery for cleansing the paddy would prove not only remunerative, but also profitable, is, it seems, con. firmed by en experiment lately made. In the case ail hided to four acres of land produced 56 barrels of rice in the paddy at the cost of about 68 dolls. It is assumed that the process would not reduce the bulk more than C.O per cent., or that 21 barrels in the paddy would at least give one barrel of clean rice; so that the 56 barrels wovJd ultimately yield 22 barrels of the article in its perfee',ed condition. Each barrel of rice, fairly weighing 2001 b.„ would, at 5 dolls, per 1001 b., produce a considerable surd. If one doll. were allowed to the miller for each barrel, besides ordinary carta , _ e expenses, then, it is remarked, " the profit still left is surely sufficient to tempt the laziest owner of a slip of land in Trinidad to arouse -.him self and make it available." The question is argued with much earnestness, be.. cause it is necessary—so say the advocates of the mess sure—that the colonists should have some article of food of native growth produced in large quantities, and easy of preservation; and rice is described as precisely the article they stand in need of, inasmuch as, in additim to the small care required in its preservation after it is gathered, the plant flourishes in the poorest soil. ROYAL MARINE FORCES.—The distribution e the additional 1,500 Royal Marine forces, voted this year in the navy estimates, is at length accomplished. We presume it must have been a work of great labour, to have been so long delayed. Three companies have been added to the Royal Marine Artillery, and the divisional companies have been strengthened to 111 privates, which will, together, dispose of the A5OO men. But three first lieutenants, Henry Carr Tate (Artillery), George Colt Langley (Portsmouth di vision), and William King Shoveller (Woolwich division), will thus be promoted; and the like number of second lieu tenant?, J. S. Dowman, F. B. Gritt on , an d H. J. Te.be, all of the Portsmouth division. This is a miserable allow ance of officers to 1,500 men, at a time, too, when the dudes of the officers of the Royal Marines at several of the Aiivi tions are very severe. It - is understood that no field oft leers are to be appointed to the additional men, though the de tached duties at Pemb ro k e D oc k yar d and the battalit in in Ireland always take Lieutenant-Colonels from the divi; lens. The Marine Artillery will also be too large a body of men to have only one field officer, and the detachment at Deptford, about 160 strong, a field officer's command in any other cr.rvs under the Crown, remains in charge of a captain. Wu re gret to say that the Admiralty Board every year is proving itself more and more incapable of regulating a milita , :y corps. CONVICTS FOR HOBART TOWN.— The following detachments are selected by Colonel Thomas Weare, K. 11., Commandant of the Provisional Battalion, for embarkatiort on board the ship Joseph Somes, fitting at Deptford for con victs to be conveyed to Hobart Town :—The 11th Foot tnr. niches 1 corporal, II privates; 96th, 1 sergeant and 15 pri v.ates; 99th, 20 privates; 65th, 1 corporal. These troops will be under the command of Captain Oliver Barker D'Arcey and Lieutenant James Paul, officers of the 65th Regiment, and they are under orders to march on the 7th inst., en route for Deptford, to form a convict guard over 200 prisoners, under sentence of transportation for life, and on whom penal punishments have been inflicted in this country under the superintendence of the Government. Those prisoners bear ing good characters are under sentence to be discharged on their arrival at the colony, on condition of their remain: Jig as settlers for life. RUGBY RAILWAY STATION.—This establishment, which, at the opening of the London and Birmingham Rail way, was one of the most insignificant on the line, now pre sents every prospect of becoming one of the m os t elegant and extensive in the kingdom. The central position of the town having led several other companies to make this their point of junction, the London and Birmingham Company came to the resolution to pull down the present station, and erect a new one. To enable them to do this, they applied last ses sion for an Act to enlarge and extend the station. Having succeeded iu obtaining this, they purchased a quantity ut land, the occupants of which were forthwith served with no• aces to quit; and as several of these notices expire at Mid summer next, the intended alterations will commence im mediately. Amongst the first portion of the works will be theerection of 300 cottages for the residences of the servants in the employ of the respective companies; these cottages will form a neat street, extending from the station to the crossing on the line leading from Rugby to Lutterworth, and will be about half a mile in length. The offices will be built in the form of a crescent, divided into compartments, each of which will bear the name of the company occupying it. The goods department will have no connexion with the passenger traffic, the warehouses, sheds, kc., being built at the back of the offices, with " off" lines leading up to them, so as to allow the luggage trains to pass between the two ranges of buildings, and thus avoid that appearance of con fusion and danger that at present exists in front of the station. When we state that there are 54 passenger trains and 28 goods and coal trains pass by this stati,m every day. and that the only wraps of crossing from the "up" side to the town side, and vice versa, is by a wooden plattOrm even with the rails, the surprise will be that accidents of a serious, if not fatal, character do not occur every day, particularly when wo add that it is not at all an unusual circumstance for three or lour trains to be at the station at the same time, whilst luggage, coal, or ballast trains are almost constantly passing ov' r the crossing along the intersecting or " off lines. This very serious evil will be remedied when the new buildings are completed ; a handsome covered gallery, extend ing from the central office on the " up " line to the opposite office on the " down" line, affording every convenience to passengers, and also removing every chance of risk or danger. The number of lines that will converge at this point is six; of these the London and North-Western and the Midland are the only two that are at present open. The Trent Valley (Rugby to Stafford) will be opened on the Ist of June for goods, and on the Ist of July for passenger trains. The Rugby and Stamford opens in November next, the Rugby and Leamington on the let of October, 1848, and the Rugby and Oxford in 1849, by which time it is expected the now offices will be completed.
