October Ist, 1840. IN THE BAY OF ISLANDS, IN NEW ZEALAND. AN IMPORTANT TOWNSHIP, PECULIARLY CIRCUMSTANCED AS RESPECTS ITS ADVAN TAGES OVER THE GREATER PORTION OF THE GLOBE, NOW THE SEAT OF HER MEJESTY'S GOVERNMENT. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has to request the attention of all those who do not dislike to improve their ways and means at a railway pace, in a country favourable to health and longevity, to a SALE BY AUCTION, at tbe Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the 29th instant, at Twel 6 o'clock, in various Lots. The valuable PROPERTY u der consi deration may be shortly summed up as follow .—There are SEVENTY-FIVE ACRES OF THE PRINCIPAL TOWN ANDS IN THE BAY OF ISLAN S ; TO BE DIVIDED INTO THREE HU DRED QUAR TER ACRES. To those only who are but imperfectly acquainted with geography it is essential to point out that the property under review is now proclaimed THE CAPITAL OF HER MAJESTY'S GOVERNMENT, where HIS EXCELLENCY CAPT. HOBSON, R.N., AND GOVERNOR OF THE COUNTRY, is located, and has established " THE OFFICIAL CAPITAL OF NEW ZEALAND." This is a point that must never be lost sight of, as it seems to render success in this quarter no longer equivocal. The limits which Mr. Robins prescribes to an announcement will prevent his urging anything beyond a cursory outline here, observing that a very lucid paper, drawn up with care by a literary gentleman of no mean acquirements, and full of truth and information, will be ready for the public in a week. The estate is all within the limits of the Bay of Islands, and is what an English speculator will well understand as being principally frontage ground, and is purchased on the spot with great eagerness at upwards of ONE THOUSAND POUNDS PER ACRE, and opposite to which there are generally THIRTY SHIPS AT ANCHOR. It is surrounded by mercantile residents to its actual boun dary : it is midway between two Protestant Churches and the Catholic Chapel of " THE BISHOP OF AUSTRALASIA," and HER MAJESTY'S GENERAL POSTOFFICE is erected within three minutes' walk of the estate. To col!- elude, the Nobility and the enterprising portion of the public will do well to be early in this field of certain gain, and the merchant and shipowner will find advantages at the Bay of Islands that they have never dreamt of in England—a very few only will be noticed. This important investment for capital, enriched in possess ing an ample water frontage to the shipping of THREE SEVERAL BAYS, a selection, reflecting much credit on the sagacious proprie tor, as being unsurpassed for mercantile value by any other property in the harbour ; some of the latter has been publicly sold from £1 to £lO per foot. The immense profits that the above property presents for the investment of capital, by sub letting for a term of years on building leases, or otherwise re-selling by the foot, is scarcely credible to those persons who have n ever v i s i te d A us t ra li a , an d M r . R o bi ns h as se riously taxed his many years' experience in the sale of public property, but in vain, for a comparison, whereby a similar opportunity to make A RAPID AND IMMEDIATE FORTUNE has presented itself as in the present instance, as it abso lutely leaves at an immeasurable distance the profits attain able by any other kind of commercial enterprise, the property now offered acquiring daily, nay hourly, an augmenting value ; Mr. R. can faithf u lly p re di c t a s i m il ar opportun i ty for purchasing TOWN PROPERTY IN THE BAY OF ISLANDS can never occur again in England, as the lands in the re motest vicinity are eagerly purchased by the numerous emi grants who are flocking from every settlement in AUSTRALIA, ENGLAND, FRANCE, AND AMERICA, INTO THIS NEW CAPITAL, and purchase with eager avidity land f or b u ildi ng b y the single foot, at prices that in this country some time back sold No. 817.] gPalts by atirtion.

Patronised by her Majesty the Queen Dowager. many e the Nobility, and most of the eminent Physicians and Medical Men in London. SENNA is known by all to be the best and safest aperient medicine which mankind possesses. Question.—Why, then, is it not used in preference and to the exclusion of all other purgatives? Answer.—Because of its nauseating taste and griping pro pfties. HE man who could dispossess so invaluable a medicine of these two disagreeable qualities, it has long been re marked, would confer a blessing on mankind, to accomplish which was considered impossible • but it sat length been effected by the proprietor of the above pr aration, in which is contained all the active principle of se a entirely deprived of its nauseating and griping propertie and rendered so ex ceedingly pleasant to the taste that o child will refuse to take it, and which, while it is so peculiarly adapted to infancy and youth, is at the same time a most desirable medicine for persons of all ages, particularly ladies and those of delicate constitution. Let every fond mother provide herself with this valuable Domestic Aperient, and she will have reason to bless the day on which she became acquainted with this ME DICINAL NOVELTY, which is not only the best, the most efficacious, and most agreeable purgative on earth, but is also Me cheapest medicine ever Made known, there being from 20 to 30 doses for an infant in one shilling bottle.—Prepared only by the inventor, JOHN FREEMAN, Pharmaceutical Che ' mist, 13, Blackfriars-road, London, and sold by special ap pointment by Mr. LATHBURY, Chemist, Castle-street, Li verpool, and may be had of all respectable Druggists, in bottles at ls., 2s. 6d., and ss. each, bearing the proprietor's signature.

The following testimonial of a most eminent physician, late a lecturer on Midwifery and the Diseases of Women and Children, is by his permission submitted to the public. " 7 , Upper Kennington-lane, Vauxhall, Sept. 17, 18.10. " Dear Sir,—l am happy in again bearing testimony to the value of your excellent Concentrated Syrup of Senna, with respect to which my experience has assured me of its absence of griping and nauseating properties, its pure and unadulterated preparation, containing within a comparatively small bulk the whole of the essential principle of that valuable medicine, together with the fact of its being so efficacious as in my opinion to supersede iu a majority of cases the use of those violent and drastic purgatives, calomel, aloes, and jalap. These qualities, combined with the additional advantage of its very agreeable taste, render it a most valuable aperient, calculated not only for general domestic purposes, but which is more particularly adapted for the lying-in room and the nursery, inasmuch as it may be administered to children of the tenderest age with pleasure and great advantage. " I am, dear Sir, yours faithfully, "JOHN POWER, M.D. " To John Freeman, Esq., Blackfriars-road."

RENDERING THE LIGHT OF ONE CANDLE EQUAL TO THAT OF MANY, is an invention for increasing the quan tity of light in any required direction, by means of Lenses, and without any additional cost of candle. Without the Lens it forms a handsome Table Lamp, having a dome shade, and a contrivance for receiving one, pavo, or more Lenses, that may be applied round the flame as wanted, so that as many as eight persons can sit rqaid one Lamn, and each have a strong life east on their wdrk or books. Tor reading by the fireside, or when lying in bed, it possesses an advan tage never before offered ; in the latter case particularly, for, as the lamp need not be removed from the table, no danger from fire can arise. The PATENT MAGNUM CANDLE-LAMP, with Can dles of Three and Four Wicks, and giving as much light as a large Argand Lamp, continue to be much approved by pur chasers. Some late improvements enable the Patentees to offer them with increased confidence ; also the TABLE LAMPS, the NIGHT-LAMPS, CHANDELIERS, &C. For lighting churches, and other public buildings, either the Magnum Candles, or those of a smaller size, will be found greatly preferable to oil. The superiority of Candle-Lamps, for cleanliness, their not requiring snuffing, trimming, or cottoning, is manifest ; and considering the extraordinary consumption of oil in all lamps made to burn cheap oil, and their liability to spill, they will be found to be for most purposes probably cheaper than any other portable light.—Apply to SAMUEL HUNT, FURNISHING IRONMONGER, 10, CSIURCH•STREET. if t./. e' - ~v, ,-----, -,---z_.,7- t .

BY MR. AND MRS. S. C. HALL. The reader will be presented with the general results of five several Tours, made by the Authors together in Ireland since the year 1825 (the latest of which took place during the autumn of the present year), and of a still earlier acquaint ance with the country and the character of its people. They have laboured with zeal and industry obtain such topogra phical and statistical information may be useful to those who visit Ireland, or who desire he means of judging cor rectly as to its capabilities and condition ; and it will be their duty to associate with more important details such legends, traditions, incidents, descriptions, and personal sketches, as may excite interest in those who might be deterred from the perusal of mere facts, if communicated in a less popular form. THE ENGRAVINGS will be sufficiently numerous to give every object--from the most important to the most insignificant—that must be con sidered and treated as peculiarly Irish. THE TOWERS, THE CASTLES, AND THE REMAINS OF MONASTIC EDIFICES, will be described by the pencil, in the page that relates the more remarkable events in their several histories, and con trasts their present ruins with their former greatness. THE MANNERS AND CUSTOMS OF THE IRISH will also afford ample scope from which to draw both enter tainment and information. The Baal-fire Meetings on Mid summer Eve ; the Patrons ; the Courtships ; the Weddings; the Christenings ; the Wakes ; the Pilgrimages to Holy Wells ; the Sports on All-Hallow Eve, and the Observances of Christmas ; the peculiar Dances and the Music of the Pea santry ; the Musical Instruments, ancient and modern ; the the Faction Fights (now, happily, but shadows of what they were); and many other National Points, Usages, and Cere monies, will supply material for the pencil of the Artist, as well as the pen of the Writer. THE LEGENDS AND TRADITIONS OF IRELAND are full of interest, and its Superstitions are rich in Romance. It is, indeed, rare to pass a single mile without encountering an object to which some marvellous fiction is attached. Every lake, mountain, ruin of church or castle, rath and bo reen, has its legendary tale ; the Fairies people every wild spot ; the Banshee is the follower of every old family ; Phoo kas and Clurikaunes are, if not to be seen, to be heard of, in every solitary glen. These stories the Authors will collect, and not as gleaners merely, for the harvest, notwithstanding that so many labourers have been in the field, is, even now, but partially gathered in. For this department of the work, too, the services of the Artist will be put into requisition. In fact, the Engravings will describe every object, peculiar to Ireland, that may serve to illustrate and explain the course through which the traveller passes, and may be better under stood by being pictured to the eye as well as the ear. The co-operation of many distinguished Artists has already been I obtained. London : How and Parsons, 132, Fleet-street. Sold by W.
