MILK PUNCH I THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur h as , for nearly a -& century, been duly appreciated at CHICHESTER AND THE METROPOLIS. It was at the former place where the original projector of this delectable beverage had his abode ; no doubt the ediPoration of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, and marked their approbation of this GREAT DI, by presenting t o him the freedom SCOVERY of the town; but with that the present generation have nothing to do suffice it to say, that this ELIXIR ; is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the bon viva nts of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for their judgment. It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed of the best materials, without any adulteration, and, in flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne ; and while THE LORDS OF THE CREATION will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table, THE GENTLER SEX may not disdain to sip, the more so as ROYALTY has acknowledged its transcendent merit. It has been intimated that it will prevent SEA SICKNESS, but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro- Prietors of PA C KET-SHIPS AN STEAMES take the hint ? Apd alth i tougha D y not produceß that " con summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we 'are, its grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate, and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence, improves by age. LE GRAND GOURMAND wilt find ✓ it a most social companion to his Calepash and Calepee, and th e t emperate man, wh il e h e mast i cates his biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this Incomparable Liqueur. " Come and try, Don't like—don't buy," IB an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste 'every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full 'lmicurdoce that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the 'Palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

This Contractor has been retarded in his, operations by the law proceedings of Lord Hopetoun ; but, notwithstanding, he has been able to turn out 150,000 cubic yards. He has again commenced, and is in full operation, and will be able, during the summer, to make up the time which he has lost. His Contract extends to 2,300 yards. The portion of the Line between Mr. Murray's Contract and the east end of Linlithgow, extending to 31 miles, is let to Messrs. Mathieson and Son and Mr. Hamilton. Mr. Ma thieson have excavated about 45,000 yards of stuff, and Mr. Hamilton about 25,000. Both of them are advanced con siderably with their masonry, and they will be able to get far through with their cutting this next summer. The portion between the east of Linlithgow and Avon Water, extending to about 11 miles, let to Messrs. Forbes, Ross, and Mitchell, is being proceeded with in a rapid man ner. With the exception of the cutting through the town of Linlithgow, which is not very extensive, a very large portion of it has been already completed. They have removed up wards of 100,000 yards of stuff, and built all their bridges except those in the town. The whole of this portion is likely to he fully formed this summer. The Viaduct across the Avon, let to Mr. Lorimer, is in full operation. He has got up the west abutment and seven piers, and has founded several others. He is now setting his centering, and will in a short time commence to the arches. The portion between the Avon water and Redding village, extending to 4:1 miles, is now before the Contractors, with the view to its being let. The line immediately to the westward of Redding village, for a distance of 2 miles, let to Messrs. Forbes, Ross, and Mitchell, is in a forward state. They have excavated nearly 200,000 yards, and the masonry is almost all completed. The Tunnel through the Callander ridge, ig in this Contract, and is 830 yards long. On this Tunnel two shafts have been put down, on each of which engines have been placed, and it is open at both ends, thereby presenting great facilities for forwarding the work. Nearly 400 yards of the guide-mine have been driven, and the Contractors are now proceeding with the excavation and building of. the Tunnel. About 40 yards of it have been arched ; and now that the work is fully opened out, the arching will be proceeded with rapidly. The next Contract is that under Messrs. Wyse and Son, extending to nearly a mile and a half. On this Contract is situated the Union Canal Viaduct. In regard to these Con tractors, I am sorry to say that they have not hitherto pro ceeded with that rapidity which I could have wished. West of Messrs. Wyse and Son's Contract, is the one let to Messrs. Somervaille, Cavenagh, and Marshall, extending to rather more than 21 miles. This Contract is far advanced, and on it there is little more than 20,000 yards of cutting re maining to be done. Nearly all their bridges have been built. The greater part of their ballasting is prepared, and it is now being laid down. The next Contract is that let to Messrs. Granger. They have got about two-fifths of their cutting executed, but have done little towards their masonry. Next is the Redburn Viaduct, let to Messrs. M`Gregor and Howe. Nearly a third part of this Contract has been executed. From the Redburn to near Drumshanty Moss, a distance of rather more than 61 miles, let to Messrs. 'Whyte, Mathie son and Son, and M`Donald and Son ; the works are now in full operation, and the cuttings opened out so as to admit of full work during this year. Messrs. "Whyte have excavated about 30,000 yards of cutting; Mathieson and Son, 45,000; and M`Donald and Son, about the same quantity. A portion of the masonary on these lots has also been executed. The portion between Drumshanty Moss and Bishop-briggs, extending to rather more than 6 miles, was let only a few weeks ago to Messrs. Henderson and Son, and Clements and Henry. These Contractors are making preparations, and will he at work immediately. West from Bishop-briggs is Messrs. Gowans and Cooper's Contract, extending to about 1 miles. These Contractors have executed about 24,000 yards of rock, and about 26,000 yards of earth, and done some of their masonry; but they are not progressing so well as I could wish. The next and last Contract is Mr. Marshall's, extending to rather more than 1 3 miles. On this Contract is the Glas gow Tunnel, divided into three portionS. Of the Bell's Park portion, extending to 272 yards, 31 yards have been cut, ex clusive of the open cutting, and both ends of it are now in full operation. Of. the Asylum portion, extending to about 292 yards, 150 yards have been cut, and it is also in full ope ration at both ends. Of the Broomhill portion, extending to 476 yards, 46 yards have been cut. The south end is in full operation ; a shaft has been put down in the centre, so that the Contractor is now ready to carry forward two faces from it, and he has made a commencement at the north end. On these divisions be has three engines fitted, and in operation. He has as yet not done much to his other cuttings, except at the south end of the Bell's park portion, which has to be arched and again covered : that cutting is taken out, and a large portion of the material necessary for the arching has been nrepared. - He has commenced to the other cuttings in his C - ontract, and will be able to proceed very vigorously during this se/ikon. 4, I have now gone over the whole Line, and, with the excep tion of one or two places, the work has, since my last Half yearly Report, been proceeded with in as satisfactory a man ner as the season of the year would permit. Nearly the whole of it is now opened out, so as to admit of a great part of the heavy cuttings being executed during the ensuing season.

J. MILLER. The CHAIRMAN said that the Report which had now been read contained all the information which the Directors thought would be acceptable to the Shareholders, but he would be happy to afford any further information which might be desired. The Report stated that the Arrears were gradually being paid up. Since the Ist of January, £12,045 of Arrears had been received. The total amount of Calls paid to the present date, was £350,686 0 0 And there had been received in anticipation of Calls. 6,980 0 0 £357,66 0 0 It would be se en th a t 38 m il es o f t h e Line were now let, and that the remaining 8 miles would be immediately contracted for. Every effort would now be used to carry forward the works, and there was reason to hope that the Line would be opened to Edinburgh in the course of 1841. (Applause.) It was (Anions however, th a t th e expectat i ons o f the Directors could only be realised by their receiving the steady support of the Proprietors, who, he trusted, would meet the Calls with promptitude. Mr. BROUGII rose and said, that there were two points on which he would be happy to receive some information. The first was with regard to the small portion of experiment railway laid on the banks of the Forth and Clyde Canal. He would be glad to learn whether this was to be continued, or what were likely to be its effects on the present under taking. The other point referred to the expense of the Line. He wished to know what might be the probable amount of this. He had no desire, however, to press these questions upon the Directors, unless it was perfectly agreeable to them to afford the information which he asked for. The CHAIRMAN said, that with regard to the small portion of Railway along the banks of the Canal, the Directors had no other means of information on the subject than the public at large. The Railway was understood to have been entirely of an experimental nature. He did not anticipate any injury to the prospects of this undertaking from the experiment. It had never been a subject of uneasiness to the Directors. With regard to the expense of the Line, it v ould be in the recol lection of the Proprietors, that a statement was made in the last Report, giving an estimate of the cost of the Line. Nothing had since then occurred to alter his opinion of the probable correctness of this. The 9 miles recently let, were rather above the average estimated by the Engineer; but these comprised the heaviest portion of the 17 miles stated at the last Meeting to be unlet. The 8 miles still remaining to be contracted for, were the lightest part of the whole work ; and he (the Chairman) confidently expected that they would be under the average. As, however, Mr. Miller was present, he would be enabled to inform the Meeting more fully on this subject. He would only add, that a considerable saving would be effected in the purchase of the rails, owing to the recent reduction in the price of iron. Mr. MILLER shortly confirmed the statement of the Chair man. Mr. LUMSDEN said, that he had listened with much plea sure to the favourable statements contained in the Report. He congratulated the Directors upon their successful efforts in recovering the Arrears. With regard to the Jury trials referred to in the Report, he thought there could not be two opinions as to the necessity under which the Directors had been of appealing to the protection of Juries against the ex travagant demands that had been made upon them ; and he was satisfied that the results must have a most wholesome and beneficial effect with reference to the portion of ground still to be acquired. He begged to move, " That the Report and Statement of Accounts now read, be received, approved of, and circulated among the Shareholders." The motion, having been seconded by Mr. GALBRAITH, was unanimously agreed to. - Mr. FINLAY, of Edinburgh, said that the Resolution which he had to propose, was one of form, and it was only necessary therefore for him to read it ; it was, " That the Seal of the Company be affixed to the Register of Proprietors, now made up, and placed on the table."—The motion was seconded by Mr. WINGATE, and unanimously agreed to.

And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Marmoratunz. MoNs. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 38, SEEL-STREET, eight dcors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth- ac h e an d d ecay. To iose so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may he taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,— at the following Paris charges : A single Artificial Tooth A complete Set • •A complete ;Set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the fi iFt style, with fine gold sockets, usuhliy charged 40 guineas Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from axe, diselst-4, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.

IN YORKSHIRE. THE BEILBY GRANGE ESTATE, NEAR TO WE THERBY, AND CONTEMPORANEOUS IN FAME WITH ITS NEIGHBOURING RIVAL, THE RIB sToN HALL PROPERTY. It/ER. GEORGE ROBINS has been honoured by the ill- instructions of LORD WENLOCK to OFFER for SALE by PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, in the month of May, THE BEILBY GRANGE ESTATE, which has numbered more than two centuries in the family of the present worthy possessor ; together with THE MANOR OF MICKLETHWAITE, the fishery abounding in salmon and trout, and about ONE THOUSAND ACRES OF CAPITAL LAND. As. it is intended to go infinitely more into detail shortly, the present will be considered as partaking only of a slight glance at a few of the leading advantages_ connected with this renowned property. Beilby Gran ge Hall approximates upon the respectable market town of Wetherby, and is quite equal, and seems especially adapted to accommodate THE M.P. FOR THE COUNTY. Its approach, by a lodge of pleasing design, is from the high London, Edinburgh, and Glasgow road, through a finely-wooded park. It is erected of stone, and is accounted, for its size, one of the nwst imposing buildings of the vicinity, and, in point of style and comfort, greatly exceeds the pre tensions of the generality of houses in Yorkshire. The gardens are all capital, with hot-houses and a conservatory ; the pleasure grounds disposed in admirable taste, with ro mantic walks progressing through the hanging woods by the side of the beauteous river. It is within this scene of delight that CHRISTOPHER WILSON, ESQ., the Father of the Turf, has luxuriated during a very long period, though the house is not too large for the views of a moderate family. The rental is nearly TWO THOUSAND POUNDS A-YEAR, exclusive of the manor, the fishery, and the value of its waters ; and it is paid without a murmur by a responsible tenantry. It is in the midst of field sports, and Lord Hare wood's and three other packs of fox-hounds. THE ANCIENT CITY OF YORK IS WITHIN FOURTEEN MILES, and its majestic Minster, towering high, is seen for many miles around. The mansion, it may be remarked, has been erected at an expense approaching £29,000, and the offices are equal to any throughout the county. The River Wharfe adjoins the property for three miles, and the value of the water for machinery and mills is great beyond calculation ; it is navigable to within five miles. and the York and North Midland Railway, only seven miles off, will be completed in twelve months, and then the distance from Beilby Grange to the metropolis of London will be accomplished in ten hours. Mr. Robins feels, however, he is exceeding the limit he originally prescribed to himself for a short address, and will conclude by an assurance, that for its extent, capability, and the quality of the soil, it will not yield to any contemporary through Yorkshire ; and this observation is made advisedly, Mr. R. having just had the gratification of making his personal survey. It ought to be kept in mind by all those who incline to a high rate of interest, that as the larger portion of the grass land adjoins the river, commencing from THE BRIDGE AT WETHERBY, to Collingham, it would be let to build upon at exceedingly high prices. The result of the sale of THE DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE'S PROPERTY, when he alienated the town of Wetherby, renders this a mat ter of certainty. The great portion of the property IS TITHE-FREE, & THE LAND TAX REDEEMED. Particulars are in preparation, and will be ready simul taneously with the enlarged advertisement in March ; in the meantime Mr. Robins will be but too happy to afford any additional information to those capitalists who may be dis posed to pay him a visit., Covent-garden, January. PATENT PERRYIAN FILTER INKSTAND. HIS novel and useful Invention insures an instantaneous T supply of CLEAR FILTERED INK in the cup of the Filter, which can be returned into the Inkstand at any mo ment, where it is secured from injury, and not affected by 'le atmosphere. The Ink, thus protected, never thickens or moulds, and remains good for any length of time in any climate. The process of filtration causes the colouring mat ter to be held in suspension ; hence the trouble and inconve nience occasioned by unsuitable Ink, generally found in ordinary Inkstands, are completely obviated by the use of the FILTER INKSTAND. One of moderate size will contain sufficient Ink for six or twelve months' writing. THE RAVEN BLACK PEN. One Shilling per Card. THE PATENT PERRYIAN RAVEN BLACK PEN iS not liable to corrosion, and will be found excellent for the use of the Counting-house, and for general purposes. Sold by JAMES PERRY and Co., Patentees and Manufac turers, 37, Red Lion-square, London ; LACE and ADDISON, Standard-office, Liverpool; also by all Stationers and other dealers in such articles. CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS. THE accounts lately received from Macao, brought intelli gence of the English having been totally expelled from China, and that hostilities had actually commenced between Her Majesty's forces, directed by her Superintendent in person, and Chinese men of war; in other words, China is at war with England. And the questions upon which the two countries are now at issue being of such difficult adjust ment as to render it almost impossible, and certainly impro bable, that any more teas can be obtained from China for a very considerable period, a great rise in all descriptions of that article has taken place. Since June last, common black teas have risen ls. 9d., and fine green, 3s. per lb. Fine Hyson, with duty, fetched at the late public sales, 9s. 7d. per lb. ; fine black teas as high as 6s. 7d., whilst up to this mo ment, Captain Pidding has continued to allow his teas to be sold without any advance whatever. The late great rise, however, having caused a run upon his teas by the trade, who found that they could purchase them cheaper retail than they could buy inferior teas wholesale, he is compelled to raise the price, to prevent his remaining stock being purchased by tea dealers. For the present, Captain Pidding's How- QUA'S MIXTURE will be sold at the rate of 6s. 9d. per lb., being 9s. the catty, or an advance of only 9d. per lb., when the commonesteas, since June, have advanced Is. 9d. per lb. HOWQUA'S &TALL LEAF GUNPOWDER will he sold, for the present, at 9s. 9d. per lb., when even Hyson, an inferior tea, is fetching, wholesale, 9s. 7d. per lb. Half and quarter catties in like proportions. Captain Pidding thinks it right to inform the public that his Chinese correspondent states confidently, that there is no probability of the trade opening with that country, for, at the least, twelve months ; and as the entire stock of consumable tea in Great Britain will be exhausted before that period, there is little doubt but tea will advance daily. These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUN POWDER,in Chinese Catty Packages. N.B.—The signature of " Captain JOHN RHODES PID DING" is upon every genuine package. GEO. CARLYLE, Repository, 38, Bold-street, Sole Agent for LIVERPOOL. Bolton G. J. French, Silk Mercer. Burnley J.

He then proceeded to read the Report of the Directors, as follows : " In the Reports which the Directors have hitherto laid before the Proprietors, they have been able to do little more than state, that the works were advancing steadily, and that they were using their best efforts to forward the interests of the undertaking. But as the time of opening the Line ap proaches, it will be in their power to afford more interesting accounts. With regard to the progress of the works, during the pe riod which has elapsed since the date of the last Meeting, the Directors beg to refer to the annexed Report by Mr. Miller, their Engineer. From this it will be seen, that, notwithstand ing the extreme wetness of the past season—which has, of course, been most unpropitious to their operations—the con tractors generally have been advancing in a satisfactory man ner; and the Directors are happy to add,. that they see no cause to change the opinion they formerly expressed, as to the period wnen the Line may be expected to be opened. The season which is now commencing, will be one, of the greatest importance to the undertaking ; and the Directors will avail themselves of the powers they possess to push for ward the works with increased vigour. Of the 17 miles, stated in the last Report to be the lightest part of the line, 9 miles have been lately let, chiefly to En glish contractors of experience and respectability. And since then, the remaining 8 miles have been advertised, and will be under contract next week, when the works along the whole Line will be in operation. The Directors, anticipating for some time a fall in the price of iron, delayed entering into any contracts for the permanent Rails. The price has now fallen considerably below the Parliamentary estimate, and this will enable them to make favourable contracts for this important branch of outlay. One of the principal matters which has engaged the atten tion of the Directors, has been the acquisition of the remain ing portion of the land required for the operations of the Company. The Shareholders are already aware of the diffi culties which the Directors have had to encounter in this de partment of their labours, and of the extravagent views en tertained by landed proprietors of the value of the ground, required for the Line. In general, the Directors, by means of negociation and of arbitration, have succeeded in attaining their object. In some cases, however, it has been found ne cessary to appeal to a Jury : and they are happy to say, that, the results, in nearly every instance, have shown that they were amply justified in doing so. In proof of this, they will only refer to the two most recent cases. In the one the sum asked was £BOOO, and the verdict £873; in the other, the claim attempted to be proved, was £24,000 (though restricted during the trial to 14,000), an d th e ver di ct £1054. The ex pences of these trials have been considerable, but the Direct ors think the money well laid out. While they are wiling to allow a fair and even a liberal compensation to proprietors, they are determined to appeal to the protection of a Jury against every unreasonable or exhorbitant demand. The Directors hope to be shortly in possession of the portion of land not yet acquired. In the last Report, it was stated that a Fourth Call had been made, and would become payable on the 4th of Sep tember. Since then, a Fifth Call has been ordered: this became payable on the 14th January. But as the payments made in compliance with it are subsequent to the date of the Balance-Sheet, they are of course, not included in the an nexed statement. The State of the Share List is , a subject to which much attention has been devoted. With the view of gaining as much information as possible concerning the parties in arrear, the Directors, shortly after the last Half-yearly Meeting, instructed the secretary to proceed to Liverpool, Manchester, &c. And they are happy to be enabled to re port, that this and the other measures which they have adopted for recovery of the arrears, have been attended with good effects. In some instances, where all other means were found to be unavailing, they were compelled to resort to legal measures. In other cases again, after minute inqui ries had been instituted, it was considered more advisable to declare the Shares forfeited ; and the Directors have now, accordingly, to submit the Declaration of Forfeiture of 758 Shares to the Meeting for confirmation. Of this number, 187 are to be immediately taken up by the Registered Pro prietors, and the Arrears of Calls paid by them, according to agreement. To enable the Directors to dispose of the for feited Shares, authority will now require to be given to them. They have much pleasure in adding, that every week is re ducing the amount of Arrears; and they will not allow this matter to rest, until the whole are disposed of. Application has lately been made to Parliament for a New Bill, the object of which is, to explain and amend parts of the Company's present Act. The Directors, however, do not anticipate that this will be attended with much expense. When one-half of the Capital is paid up, the Company are empowered, under their Act, to raise money on loan to the extent of £300,000, of which £50,000 may be by a cash cre dit with a bank. The Directors anticipate, that after mak ing one, or, at the utmost, two Calls more, they will be in a situation to avail themselves of this power ; and as this will probably happen before the next Half-yearly Meeting of Proprietors takes place, they now beg to submit to the pre sent Meeting, the propriety of conferring upon them the power of borrowing money in terms of the Act, in case such a course may appear to be expedient. The proprietors are aware of the admirable position of the Glasgow terminus of the Line—coming down, as it does, into the heart of the City. The Directors have bestowed much and anxious considerations on the plans of the DepOt, as prepared by the Engineer; and, with the further view of obtaining all the information which could be derived from the experience of the principal English Companies, so asto the best mode of laying out the Dep6t, the Chairman and Engineer lately visited the stations at Liverpool, Manchester, Bir mingham, &c. ; and the Directors have much pleasure in reporting that the valuable information acquired during this visit will enable the Engineer to make such internal arrange ments of the Terminus as will combine every convenience with the strictest economy. A Meeting of Deputations from the principal Railway Companies in S co tl an d was lately held in Glasgow, for the purpose of endeavouring to effect a change in the system of levying the Passenger -duty on Railways. As this matter is of general interest, and particularly to Scotland, the Di rectors willingly concurred in the objects of the meeting. Under the provisions of the Act of Incorporation, the fol lowing Gentlemen, being one-fourth of the Directors, go out of office at this period—namely, JOHN FLEMING, Esq., JOHN MAXTON, Esq., ALEXANDER DRYSDALE, ESGI 2 ALEX ANDER M'NEILL, Esq., ARCHIBALD SMITH, Esq., RICHARD HUNTER, Esq. These Gentlemen are, however, re-eligible to office. The Directors cannot conclude without calling the atten tion of the Shareholders to the necessity of their seconding the anxious desires of the Directors, to take advanta ge o f th e present opening season, to push on the works by every means in their power. In addition to the increased expenditure which will be caused by the simultaneous progress of the works along the whole Line, the Directors have now also to provide for rails, chairs, sleepers, stone blocks, &c. They cannot, therefore, too earnestly impress upon the Proprietors the extreme importance of their promptly paying up the Calls. It is obviously a painful duty for the Directors to be obliged to adopt any corercive course, even though the number of defaulters is limited; but the duty is imperative, and will be discharged.

The notc: is a joint and several note, and is signed by three Parties, two of whom are sureties for the other. The prin cipal Party is a Shopkeeper, in one of the most respectable Streets in Liverpool; one of the Sureties is also a Shop keeper, engaged in au ext ens i ve li n e of b us i ness i n two of the princip , al Streets of the Town; and the other Surety is a Gentleman filling a public office of great trust. The due payment of the Money is further provided for by a collateral Security. As circumstances render it necessary that the note should be disposed of, it will be sold at such a price as will be exceedingly profitable to a Purchaser. Further informa tion will be given on application to Mr. SNOWBALL, Solici tor, 16, Castle-street. IN SOUTH AMERICA. n 4 R. GEORGE ROBINS has received instructions from IVI. a leading mercantile house to SELL, by PRIVATE TREATY, a considerable TRACT of LAND in the STATE OF VENEZUELA, IN SOUTH AMERICA. He would earnestly entreat those capitalists who are disposed to embark in foreign land, or those who would emigrate, to weigh well the favourable opportunity which is furnished by this sale ; firstly, as it regards the great liberality in respect to price for the property, and accommodation in the pay ment of it. This alone would justify even a timid speculator to enter the field of competition, and select this portion of the globe as the arena of his future operations. It is called THE HATO VIEJO ESTATE, and consists of 535 SPANISH FANEGADAS. It is situate near to the city of Valencia, and not far distant from P. Cabello, the nearest shipping port, close to the town of San *Makin, in the parish of that name, and within its jurisdiction, in the independent State or Republic of Vene zuela. The soil is especially adapted to the growth of cane, coffee, and indigo, and it is also well suited to general agri cultural purposes; but it is apprehended the settler's atten tion will most probably be turned to the cultivation of indigo, as there are factories and vats already erected upon the pro perty for the preparation of that plant. The growth of coffee must also of necessity be very productive. A detailed account is just printed, and may be obtained at Mr. George Robins's Offices, Covent-garden. Attu lOttbitrations.
