The Subscriber offers for Sale,'
His ESTATE in the County of Nan
semond, known by the name of Tucker’s Necki.
This tract of Land contains about 700 acres, and is
situated immediately upon Nansemond river, about
five miles from Suffolk and eighteen from Norfolk,
with each of which places there is a speedy and
convenient communication by water, as vessels
drawing ten feet water may lay along side the bank,
at the landing place, which is but a few yards from,
the house. Of the quality of the land and the Im
provements upon it, it is deemed unnecessary to say
any.thing, because it is presumed no one would be
disposed to purchase without viewing the premises.
Property in Norfolk would be taken in exchange for
this plantation, or it will be sold upon any reasona
ble credit to suit the purchaser. The whole tract
is susceptible of convenient division into two smaller
plantations, and would be so divided to accommo
date those w ho may be disposed to purchase.

reed upon documents contained in (he papers oil jhe
table, comprising theoorrespbhdence between' 'Mr.'"
Secretary Canning and Mr. Frete, andiliftrecerdeJ
sentiments of the maf-qtiis Wellesley himself, when
ambassador at Seville. He referred first to a let*
trr from Mr. Canning -to Mr. Frere at Sevifle, in
which were heavy complaints; it is stated (hat i
some of our best blood had been shed in the Spanish
cause, unassisted by the government of Spain/and
unsupported even by the good Will of the pfrfcfctk hs
the passage of our armies through the country. At
that time, therefore, it should seem that ministers
were aware of their errors. The secretary of atatg
then goes on to inculcate the necessity oft adopting
ill proper precautions in future. They •forward**
sent out Sir George Smith on a Spectafmission,' gf;
which time, in Deremberjl^ January,,itf dififeniy

oned. Mr. Frere was at Seville When WL'O-Smith!•
carpe to Cadiz, and bis arrival there, together *itV
the troops from Lisbon, of which Mr! ’Frere alsS
knew nothing, had nearly produced theuii>if
pleusant consequences in thawity fill fvo'nfiriiatiiin
«f which, he quoted Don Martin de Garay!, Such.!'1
a want of concert could only proceed funni thyse,
who, after having commissioners in Spain for
months, actually sent sir Dalvid Baird’s whtry to
Corunna without any arrangement jto”"tbe' SpanSI;
ish government. A few weeks afte^ Sir ’Artl^l
Wellesley was sent with his force to Lisbon,!'wjhi#a7
the Spaniards were resorting to that mode of w«tr-"
fare which it would have been happy fer them"
to have adopted much earlier; to*the «rfficsle^
of which Sunk cave the strongest testimony*
—Sir A. Wellesley’s first orders were to relievePnr?'
tugal, and then proceed to aid Spain. HiSsaponti
instructions ware not to enter on a campaign in '
Spain, without authority from home ; and rftf the
25th of May, he was desired to co-operate witk
Spain, by extending beyond tbe provinces adjacent
to Portugal {but for such operations no precautions,
were taken, no obstacles removed. He gave great
credit to sir Arthur for his vigour and enierprise.ift*
the first operations, and should not indulge in aiyy ■
criticisms on the tiifti that elapsed before he follows
ed Souk; which putsuu was abandoned on that
28th of May. After the north of Portugal was!
cleared, did ministers really act on a knowledge that
sufficient means existed for prosecuting another.
Spanish campaign ? If so, who could have hesitated
to scud from hence all the disposable force we could
spare for an object so politic, so gratifying to tha ;
feelings of this nation, of Europe, aud the world,'
as the expulsion of the invaders from the country,
they had usurped ? If so, they might have sent «’
great force to pursue Soult, and lo advance toward**
Cuesta, while Victor was in a State of tbys greatest*
distress. But here was seen the true character cf,
the ministers; they must be doing every thing a*'
once with inadequate means. They must attack
docks and basins in one quarter, and restore a mo^
narrby ini another; they mil's t have their expedltb*
ons in the Meditteranean, in it* Scheldt, dividing!
and scattering the immensedisposable military furpo
of Great Britain iu every direction; disdaining,
the mean, paltry policy of concentrating MKff
forces as their enemy was in the habit of doing
When we did advance, Soult crossed tbemnuh*
tains and >took Oreuse, while 8000 Spanish warp,
at Vigo, under Carrera, open for service ; but w«^
had no coencil, no' communication, or Or«nsa£
might have been saved : Carrera’s trpops mprcheif

vance to Placentia, because supplies could n^y he,.
got far up tbe country ; he took 'the loOgekr raaa
by thirty leagues. Instead of a march of ten days,
which, if pi operly supplied, the army might havo*
made, seven weeks were consumed ; while Victor,
retreated, provisioned and reinforced himself by the
troops under Joscpbaml Sebastianl. A rapid march
was indispensable: hut We find'the army stopping
