THE STONE EDIFICE.

and its Internal Accommodation. First observing that the writer
has now entered upon CLASSIC GROUND. It is a matter of
notoriety, that the Prototype of Squire Western, in Fielding's Tom
Jones, is to be traced to Widcomb. It is a delightful reminis.
cence, that the admired Author produced his remarkable novel
within this hospitable roof; the surrounding neighbourhood is
hallowed as it were by the association of poetry and romance;
Prior Park, the Seat of Squire Allen, will be remembered by that
charming distich so happily expressed by one of England's sweetest
bards, which we; called forth not alone by the inspiration of the
Muse, but as a trifling tribute of gratitude towa id se nevertiring
Patron. 'Twee thus the Poet sang his Patron's praise :
Let Humble Allen, with an awkward shame,
Do good by stealth, and blush to find it fame."—Pors.
The accommodation within is ample for all the legitimate wants
of a family of importance. It is in most substantial order, although
a few hundred pounds may be advantageously employed indecorati►e
ornament. There is a capital water mill near at band, but entirely
excluded by the growth of the plantations, from which an income
of 100 guineas a year is available, and there are several cottages,
besides a snug little Villa and gardens under the wings of Widcomb,
which would exceed another Hundred Pounds.

The property is all Freehold, and the title unexceptionable.

SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE.

We last evening paid a visit to this theatre, and were
glad to perceive that the exertions of the indefatigable
manager were rewarded by arieverdowing audience. The new
melodrama of the Court of ,:-S'paix, with which the perfor-
mances commenced, is a dramatic version of the Adventures
of Peter the Cruel, King of Castile, and of Beatrice de Pa-
dilla, to whom he has long been united secretly, and whom
at length he openly acknowledges as his Queen. Peter
found a very chivalrous .epresentative in Mr. J. Webster,
and Mrs. R. Honnor made a most interesting Beatrice,
while the acting of Cathcart in Don Ruy de Padilla, the
father of Beatrice, a loyal, brave, but ill-used officer of the
King of Castile, reminded us not unpleasantly of Macready,
whom this gentleman has evidently chosen for his model.
The last scene, the Coronation of Beatrice, was gorgeous
in the extreme, and the curtain fell amidst loud and long-
continued applause. After the conclusion of this piece,
Mr. Aldridge, from the Bath Theatre, sang the
song of the " Admiral" in :Avery good style,
and was deservedly rewarded with an encore. To
this succeeded a version of " The Fairy Lake,"
and the evening's amusement concluded with the military
afterpiece of the Czar and the King, founded on the
adventures of Peter of Russia and Charles of Sweden
immediately preceding the battle of Pultowa. We know
not to whom Mr. Honner has entrusted the care of paint-
ing the scenery for his theatre, but be he who he may,
he possesses talents of no mean order. There was not
a single scene exhibited in this theatre last evening, which
as a work of art was not deserving of the highest commen-
dation. The manner in which the pieces at this theatre
are produced reflects the greatest credit on the manage-
ment, and herein doubtless lies the secret of the great sue-
cess of this theatre since Honnor has been the lessee, a suc-
cess which, great as it is, is richly merited, and which has
not had the usual effect of making him relax in his exertions.

TN HANTS.

Bkcellant FREEHOLD FARM of SUPERIOR LAND, and an
WATER MILL, near to BASINGSTOKE.
Their ANNUAL VALUE 410 GUINEAS.
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on, THURSDAY, the Gth of June, at
Twelve o'clock, in Two Lots,
A CAPITAL FREEHOLD FART,
called DEAN'S LAND. It consists of
A SUPERIOR FARM HOUSE and
ONE HUNDRED and TWO ACRES of REMARLABLY
GOOD LAND;
pleasantly situate only one mile from the high London road, four
from Basingstoke, and within five irides of
THE SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY STATION,
The Farm includes some of the best Land in the Country_m"
quarters of wheat per Acre is the constant average, and it is known
that in most land this would wear out the soil; it appear' in this
case it will not tire, and the present crops look most enc,uraging.
IT 15 A SINGULARLY COMPACT ESTATE,
with the comfortable abode placed in the very centre.
THE WATER CORN MILL,
carrying three pair of Stones, is in view. It has a residence that
recals t• our recollection tie famed ono recorded in history
of the

"RIVER DEE i„JOLLY MILLER who LIVED on the
it is full of comfort. The Mill has four floors, and the supply
of water is never failing. Twenty loads of wheat is a fair ave•
rage of its capability, to grind weekly.
A TROUT STREAM PASSES THROUGH
the Estate, and occasionally lends its refreshing aid in irrigating
the adjacent pastures. This Mill is sadly underlct at One Hundred
Pounds a year, being worth at least Two Hundred Guineas, and
the Farm would readily let at 2.00 guineas a-year snore. The value
of the Estate may be moderately estimated at
FOUR HUNDRED GUINEAS A YEAR.

- _
The Peor-rate and Tithe are both very low.
The Mill will form a separate Lot from the Farm. The Pro.
perty is altogether unusually desirable, either for permanent occu.
pation, or investment. It can be seen by a Particular of Sale,
which will have a Plan annexed, twenty.one days before the sale.
To be had at the Crown, Basingstoke; the Hotel, Hartford Bridge;
King's Arms, Bagshot ; of Messrs. Randall and Eldridge, Soli.
citors, Southampton ; at the hart; and in Covent Garden.
London, England, 1839-05-23

FIRST-RATE YEOMEN SHOULD ENJOY.

The present low rental (with the power to repossess the Farms
next Lasly.clay), and including the value of the Mansion and Park,
may be estimated at more than

TWO THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR.

The reader will probably at this period think that quite enough
has been offered to claim especial attention, and that nothing very
piquant has been omitted. " Nous verrons."
THE ESTATE IS EXTRA PAROCHIAL,
except as to a small portion, and
THE WHOLE IS FREE FROM TITHE,
save only a fixed modus of 151. a year. To this may be added that
THE TENANTRY ARE HAPPY, CONTENTED,
and (what is no mean advantage)
ARE ALL AFFLUENT.

It is most cheering to see the never.ending wheat ricks Which
adorn their rick yards.

In conclusion, it may be remarked, that a purchaser must be
fastidious over much who will not be delighted with
" THE ROUND UNVARNISHED TALE"
which is here so imperfectly told; and lastly, it is strongly suggested
to all such as agree with Mr. Robins, that the Funds are at an ex-
ceedingly high and feverish price, and that Land has been depressed
till very recently in the same proportion, to make a visit to Mee-
holme, when, by means of occular demonstration, they will proclaim
the present announcement to be very much within the limited weed
of praise that it should have provoked.
The Estate can be seen, accompanied with a Partieuliir of sale,
which will have abeautiful Drawing of Riseholme and a correct Plan
of the Estate. To be had (at 6d. each) at the City Arms, Lincoln;
the Lion Hotel, Sleaford ; the Kingston Arms, Hull; the Printers
of the Stamford Mercury and Chronicle; the Printers of the
York Herald and Courant; the Printer of the Leeds Times;
if Mr. J. M. Fisher, Auctioneer, Manchester; the Plough, Chel.
tenhant ; the Clinton Arms, of George Hodgkinsoa, Esq , and of
Messrs. Tallents and Burnaby, Solicitors, Newark; the Auction
Mart; and at Mr. Robins' Offices, London.

ENGLISH AGRICULTURIST

an unquestionably safe investment, a fine field for his superior
skill, and a certainty in a few years of realizing his brightest, aye
his fondest expectations. During the last year a considerable sum
has been expended in Farmyards and Agricultural Buildings,
Cottages, &c.
The Estate is situate about two miles from the picturesque
OLD FORTIFIED TOWN OF MONCONTOUR.
It is little more than twelve miles from St. Brieux, the
PRINCIPAL SEAPORT TOWN AND CAPITAL OF THE
DEPARTMENT OF THE COTES DU NORD,
and only about sixty miles from ST. MALO, with
FINE MACADAMISED HIGH-ROADS,

which bound the property above a mile, and which to the south con
duct, at six miles distance, to LOUDI AC, a town of 6,000 inhabi
tants ; and about four miles further, to the course of the
CANAL FROM NANTES TO BREST,

and also to I_7ORIENT ; and by way of auxiliary to never-ending
advantages, it is only about 'f

when great occasion commands. A large portion'of the estate may
be converted into
THE FINEST MEADOW LANDS;
the remainder profitably adapted to sheep and arable farms. There
are springs in the land, and water-mills near at hand.
THE CLIMATE IS SO MILD,
that it is assimilated to " THE SOUTH OF FRANCE." The
English are exceedingly well received in Britanny, and there is a
manifest desire to avail themselves of the benefit of
PRACTICAL ENGLISH AGRICULTURISTS,
as the native farmers are at least one century in the rear of
English .

THE ARTS AND SCIENCES.

If profit be also in their "mind's eye," they will find it at
Athens to their heart's content. But there is still another class
who may, and ought to be seduced to give a serious thought
to this sale—alluding especially to those who dislike not lon_
gevity—throughout the world it would be in vain to look
for a more congenial climate. NINETY-FOUR is not accounted
OLD, and Doctors and Physic are very little in request. To those
whom ambition leads to soar above their fellow-men, the proximi t y to
THE COURT OF ATHENS,

and the gratification (leaving self-interest for a moment out of con-
sideration) derivable from frequent intercourse with

"THE HIGH AND MIGHTY IN POWER,I
and the continuous intimacy with the

`• MOST REFINED OF EUROPEAN SOCIETY,"

under the paramount protection of England and France, com-
pletes a picture of which the possessor may well be envious. A plan

silver as coin which is brought into the co V-bhL.l -
which we are now deprived of through our present im—
politic Mint regulations.
The importers of silver, in return for goods exported,
could then calculate upon a fixed price and steady
market, instead of being compelled to sell their silver at
a reduced price for re-exportation.
Gold in bullion being kept, by the Mint regulations,
at somewhat below the value of gold in the coins, would
tend to preserve the gold coins in the country and in ,
circulation, as they would not pay to melt, and there '
would be little or no demand for them for exportation.
The Banks having the privilege of paying either in
gold coins, or in silver crown pieces, would tend to
guard against alarms or panics in future. t
The Bank of England and the other Banks might
also in certain cases have the option of paying in ingots, •
of gold or silver, goaranteed by the Mint mark or stamp
upon them, at the Mint price. This, when a demand
takes place for bullion for exportation would prevent, or
diminish, the action upon the coins, and thereby econo-
mise the expenses of coining. For exportation, in most
' cases, ingots would be preferred.
It would &so tend to preserve a greater steadiness
in prices and a more regular demand for labour, bene-
ficially
to the labouring classes, and by having a full I
supply of good sterling silver money they would be paid
in it, instead of being frequently classed together and
forced into public houses or shops to obtain change,
often to their injury and that of their families.
The paper money may be better regulated to guard
against ruinous fluctuations for the time to come, by the

banks having the power to pay in both metals, instuad
of being restricted to gold alone. _ .

SEIZURE FOR CHURCH-RA.TBS-

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
A circular spring dial, belonging to Dr. Epps, 89,
Great Russell-street, was seized, on the 24th of July,
under a warrant, signed Edward Bellasis, for Church-
rates, for expenses incurred for music, repairs, and or-
namenting the parish church of St. George, Bloomsbury.
This parish is blessed with a Select Vestry, under a
Bill, passed by Lord John Russell, (it being his father's
parish) which Select Vestry, although the Act autho-
rizes that the seat rents and the burial fees be ap-
propriated for the purposes to which Church-rates are
applicable, manage so that the wealthy and pious people
who have seats in the parish church, among whom is
Mr. Spottiswoode, who has realized an immense fortune
by:printing the Bible at an enormous profit, (see evidence
before the Bible Printing Committee) do not pay On
scat rents sufficient, with the aid, too, of the burial
fees, to repair their own places of worship.

MARTIN'S PICTURE of the CORONATION.-
We were favoured on Saturday with a private view"
of Mr. Martin's picture of the late Coronation, which
is a striking production, with less than usual of the ar-
tist's mannerism. The time chosen for representation
14 when the Peers are offering their homagt.'
to the
Queen. Among them is Lord Rolle, who, just' as i_he
is in the act of kneeling before her Majesty, falls V' the
ground, and is with difficulty enabled to recover hisequilibrium. Seeing this, the Queen rises front h'.11..
chair, in order' to lend her assistance to the infant O'
nobleman—a sudu,t:n and unexpected movement, cv/1,1
of course creates a jeneral sensation, and gives 1147. v.
Martin an opportunity oc throwing animation and va-
riety into his more conspicuous groupes, thereby break-
ing the still-life and monotony of his subject. The
Peers, in the fore-ground, for instatice, instead of sitting
calm and collected, in regular and formal order, and
with cast-iron stiffness, as they do in some of the Co-
ronation paintings we have seen, are rising, sonic of
them from their benches, while others are leaning for-
ward, evidently much astonished at the little dramatic
episode that is going forward. Here, the artist has
been as successful as he could desire ; but we reaoY
cannot compliment him on the skill or grace with which
he has delineated her Majesty's face and figure. As fat
as regards the architectural portion of his painting, he
has realized—indeed, more than realized—all the
expectations that could have been formed of him, for
his colouring is chaste and sober, wit lout being in the,
slightest degree tame or cold ; and his lofty aisles and
grey pillars—so adroitly disposed are his lights and
shadows—stand out on the canvas with qute a Rea"
brant-like distinctness and impressiveness. fijo cress.
lights are handled with equal felicity, and stream
across the Abbey with a brilliancy that dazzles the s,nec.
tator's eyes. The back-ground is not, we think, thros',ln
quite enough into perspective—an unusual fault with
Mr. Martin, who is the most triumphant master of
space tl.at modern art can show. Altogether, the
picture is a remarkable one ; but it is impressive rather
as a whole, at a first glance, than in details ; in parti-
cular, the more prominent figures in the fore-ground
will not stand a very searching critical examination. In
the same room with the Coronation, there is a fine
landscape painting, with one of Claude's skies, entitled
Alpheus and Arethusa, which Earl Grey, we understand
has just purchased for Howick Hall.

THE BERWYN 1 !ILLS

AN AMPHITHEATRE OF GILI:AT EXTENT AND
BEAUTY.

The mansion is not too large, but p assesses abundant accomo.
dation for a family of some pretensions„ with all suitable offices.
It is placed in the centre of the Estate, and surrounded by planta-
tions of great extent and luxuriance. ilt is not quite four miles
from the Holyhead Mail.road, and still; nearer to Llangollen and
Corwen (the two post towns). It might appear superfluous to add,
that it is in the most admired position
THROUGHOUT THE WI4:OOLE COUNTY.
The property extends to near
FOUR THOUSAND ACRES,
of which about 1,200 Acres are under cnativation, by a respectable
tenantry. There are about
350 ACRES IN PLAN TATIONS,
and near 2,000 Acres disposed in Sheet -walks; and to the Ama.

MARYLEBONE.

William Jones, a weazel-faced man, was charged with
being concealed in the bed-room of Mrs. Hannah Foulkes,
of 7, Market-street, Paddington. The complainant stated
that, whilst at ..tea, on the previous evening, she heard
some one sneeze in her bed-chamber, and on opening the
door she found the Prisoner sitting in her easy chair, with
the " Sorrows of Water" in his hand. On being disturbed
he started off, but she following and calling " Stop thief 1"
he was soon captured. On searching him two flannel
petticoats were found upon him, but they did not belong
to her. _

An officer said that the fellow was a common bed-room
thief; and, having nothing to say for himself, the Magis-
trates remanded him for further examination, that persons
who have been robbed mly come forward.

ling it up, put it into his pocket and quitted the room. After
a few moments he was followed by the witness Coles, who
found him near the water-closets. He addressed him,
and told him that it was time he had returned to
his duty ; when the prisoner said he would go imme-
diately; but, instead of doing so, he entered one of the
water-closets. The witness returned to the sorting-reorn,
and acquainted the President with what he had witnessed ;
and, on the prisoner coining back, he was called into a
private room and questioned upon the subject. He firmly
denied that he had any letter about him, or that he had re-
moved or secreted one of there which had been placed in
his hands. Mr. Peacock, jun., one of the solicitors to the
Post-office, being present, cautioned him that he would be
searched; but, as he still persisted in his denial of the
offence imputed to him, Mathew Peake, a constable of the
A division, who usually attends the Post office, was called
in to search his person. He examined his pockets in vain
to find either letter or money, except three shillings in
silver ; but, it having been remarked that the prisoner had
handled his watch in rather a singular manner, the atten-
tion of the officer was directed to it, and in the case he
found a sovereign and a half sovereign. A carpenter,
named Baker, was then called in, and directed to examine
the water-closet; and, on his removing the seat, the frag-
ments of a letter were discovered in the pipe, which, on
being collected, proved to have been written by a Miss
Yarrow, and posted in Chapel-street, Grosvenor-place,
addressed to her father in America.square, the letter
being marked outside as containing money. The prisoner
was then secured by Peake, and on his being conveyed to
this office he admitted to the constable that he had stolen the
ter by secreting it in his handkerchief, and that he had
afterwards carried it down stairs, where he had taken out
its contents, consisting of it. 10s. in gold, and had torn
it up and had then thrown the fragments away in the
place where they were discovered.
The prisoner declined saying anything in his defence at
present, and on the application of Mr. Peacock, who ap-
peared to support the prosecution, he was remanded for the
purpose of procuring the attendance of some witnesses
whose testimony will be necessary in point of form.

by Direction of the Trustees, for Absolute Sale, in Five Lots,
.AN EXCEEDINGLY ELIGIBLE
. FREEHOLD PROPERTY; with a view to safe invest-
ment, or for occupation it would be difficult to surpass it. The
farm residence is delightfully placed in the rural village
of Preston, and very near to the post town of Wingham. It
is a pleasant habitation, unpretending in its outward form,
but full of comfort and accommodation within, and its out.
ward appearance is not a little improved by ivy, which has
so kindly entwined itself around it. It is encircled by
pleasure and flower gardens, which claim to be distinguished from
many others from the quantity and quality that is constantly exhi-
bited, and there is a kitchen garden very near. The next
point is the quality of the soil; and it may be permitted to
to observe that few investments can put on such an irresistible
claim. The land connected with the estate altogether is
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-TIIREE ACRES.

of cultivation, demonstrating at this moment the certainty of from
five to six quarters of wheat per acre ; some capital clover and
peas, with meadow land of the first quality, the

THE objectlof this Art, is the Detection of the

the first is but too well known by the exhibiters of Medicine,
and the uncertainty of the latter, is severely experienced by
those unfortunately confined to the use of Drugs. In all com-
plaints it will afford Relief. It is the mightiest of Thera-
peutic Aids. Even in complaints where Physic has failed its
efficacy is often irresistible, and in obstinate Chronic Rheuma-
tism, its power of relieving is unequalled.

not the way to impress Prince ERNEST and his
men SCHELE and LEIST with respect for the
people. They find in such an outbreak, however
natural and excusable it may be in a
case like that of the Hanoverians, only
a handle for further oppression. We hope
and trust that the friends and leaders of the people
in Hanover will impress the masses with the urgent
necessity for abstaining from any such petty de-
monstrations of their wrath, and teach them to bend
all their energies towards one point, namely,
successfully to relieve themselves and the country
at large from an incubus, which, if not thrown off,
threatens to crush all their energies, to undermine
their virtues, to lower them in their own esteem,
and deprive them of the respect of other nations.
