THE GLANBRANE PARK ESTATE, IN NVAL.s, ONE OF
THE MOST INFLUENTIAL AND IMPORTANT FEA-
TURES OF THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY.
Mlt. GEORGE ROBINS is Instructed to
SELL by PUBLIC AUCTION, in THE LAST WEEK
IN AUGUST, by directions of the Trustee, acting under a positive
power of Sale,
THE GLANBRANE PARK ESTATE
embraces one of

THE LARGEST DEMESNES IN THE PRINCIPALITY OF
WALES,

and, as it regards most of its contemporaries, it is distinguished as
THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THE COUNTY.

It is intend.xl to give a lengthened description when Mr. Robins
has completed his survey, it is therefore only necessary now to re-
mark, that

THE MANSION IS WORTHY OF AN EAST INDIAN
NABOB,
who is desirous of extending his influence, and aiding materially
his lease for life. It is not intended, however, to disguise the fact
that there will be scope for him to indulge in and demonstrate his
tastein ornamental decoration, in contradistinction to bygone times.
THE DOMAIN EXTENDS TO
TEN THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED ACRES OF LAND,
including
FIFTY.THREE FARMS, JUDICIOUSLY DIVIDED,
commencing at Llandovery, and divided for four miles by the Mail.
road from London to Carmarthen.

THE PRESENT LOW RENTAL, NOT QUITE
FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS A.YEAR.

There is also

THE ADVOWSON AND PRESENTATION

to the living of Llanurtyd,

To those who may have been sceptical about the title, it will be
oatisfactory to know that it has been recently approved by the
highest authorities, and as a permanent investment for capital it
would be difficult to find any to apprcach it, either for its extent,
or the consequential influence thereunto belonging.
Particulars will be shortly ready at Messrs. Roy, Blunt, Duncan,
and Johnson's offices, Lothbury ; and at Mr. Geo. Robins's offices,
London.

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

ELIGIBLE OPPORTUNITY FOR A FEMALE.

THAT beautifully situated and well-established
FANCY TRADE, GENERAL STATIONERY,
and PUBLIC CIRCULATING LIBRARY, (all the Books
in which are new) 23, CLIFF-TERRACE, SCARBO-
ROUGH, in full Business, is now OFFERED to any respect-
able individual who may be disposed to enter upon the same. A
more desirable opportunity seldom occurs, the Establishment
being honoured with the patronage of the first Families in the
Kingdom.
The Situation commands an extensive view of the Sea, Cliff,
Terrace, Garden, Rock, and Cliff Bridge, with the other recent
Improvements. The House is well Furnished, and the coming
in would be 3001., with immediate possession.
The only reason for the present Proprietor relinquishing this
highly profitable Concern, is on account of her attention being
required at Hull.

This town was visited by a most terrific storm of thunder,
lightning, hail, and rain on the afternoon of Sunday last;
the rain descended in torrents, the thunder one continued
roar, the lightning one continued flame; it exceeded any
thing ever remembered here : no serious injury was done,
but the lightning; struck a tree on the lawn between the
houses of the Earls of Belfast and De Grey, stripping up
the bark : a cottage belonging to John Corle, Esq , at
Sticelet, nag also struck; and some injury was also done
to Alum Bay Ilousr.

A MustcAL ELOPEM ENT.-I'here have been
some curious rumours in the musical world for this fort-
night back, which we hive not thought it prudent to men-
tion until they could no longer be doubted. It is with
pain we now state that Mrs. Bishop has, without the con-
sent or knowledge of her husband, left him and three
children. She is gone, it is reported, to the Continent,
accompanied by Bochsa. Her highly respected parents
arc left in a state bordering on distraction. It is feared
her mother will not survive the shock, and the wretched
situation of her indulgent snd talented husband may be
more easily imagined than describA.—Post.
No VEI, ACTION.—At Dev:zes a case of breach
of promise of marriage (a gentleman against a lady !)
which was to have come on at the last assizes wtil posi-
tively b: tried at the present.

LEWIS-IZING THE HAND.
AT 113, NEAR EXETER-HALL, IN THE

STRAND.

The Education of theliand, for the various purposes to
which writing is applied, may, with ease and certainty, be
teti,uired in the most cornOcte and satisfactory manner, at the
" STRAND INSTITUI lON, FOR THE PROMOTION

OF USEFUL KNOWLEDGE."
Mr. LEWIS, the SOLE INVENTOR of the NEW
PROCESS of WRITING, engages to transform any scrawl,
however bad, into a free and beautiful style (by a most jute-
resting and permanent operation, in a few days. So great has
been the success of the Lewisian system, and so infallible are
the principles on which it is founded, that if the public will
but second Mr. L.'s endeavours, by a continuance of their pre-
sent liberal patronage, scarcely a bad hand shall, in a few years,
be found in London.
Those whose hands have been LEWIS-IZED cannot, by
any possibility, relapse into their former bad habits.
SHORT-HAND, as the Reporters write it. The new
system of ARITHMETIC, by quick and easy mental opera-

TION taught on the most elegant and approved principles.

BEER BILL.

The Duke of WELLINGTON suggested that the
proper way of proceeding would be to embody the resolu-
tion their Lordships had just come to in a Bill.
Lord BROUGHAM agreed with the Noble Duke, and
would on Thursday next incve the third reading of the
Bill now on their Lordships' table, when their Lordships
would have an opportunity of proposing any amendments
in ii they might think proper.
The NOBLE and LEARNED. LORD presented a petition from
Waterford, complaining of the state of the prisons ; also one
from Birmingham, in favour of Mr. Rowland Hill's plan of
penny postage ; also from some place in Ayrshire, from
Malvern, from Bangor, from Ramsey, to the same effect.
He wished to know whether the plan was only to be
brought forward in the event of the revenue permitting it,
or whether the plan was to be brought forward at all events.
Viscount MELBOURNE—The plan is to be brought
forward at all events, care being taken to make good any
deficiency which may be the consequence.
Lord BROUGHAM—That is quite satisfactory.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH wished to know how a
deficiency of 1,000,0001. could be made good without the
imposition of a tax which would press heavily on the
labouring classes?
Viscount MELBOURNE said that was matter for con-
sideration.

A (ter a few words from Lord ASHBURTON,
. Lord BROUGHAM said he for icwe always thought
there would be a defalcation, but not to the amount
imagined by the Noble Lord opposite. If the people
wished for this boon of course they must pay the price for it,
The Ea+l of WICKLOW thought it would be a farce
to come to a resolution, pledging Parliament to make good
any deficiency, unless it were expressly stated what tax it
was intended to impose to in Ake good such deficiency.
Their Lordships then adjourned at Half-past Six to
Monday next.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, ALT 12.

The SPEAKER took the Chair a few minutes before Four

Mr. GISBORNE took the oaths and his scat for the
Borough of Carlow, in place of Mr. Bruen, who was un-
seated by a Committe. The Hon. Member was intro-
duced by Mr. Wilbraham and Mr. Vigors.
Mr. Sheriff Johnson appeared at the bar, and pre-
sented a petition from the Lord Ma)or, Aldermen, and
Commons of the City of London, against the County
Courts Bill. Also, one from the same parties in favour of
Mr. R. Hill's plan of penny postage.

Bill were fixed for to-mcrrow.

from Colonel Wood, said, that it was his intention to
ask tbo House to agree to the second reading of the
Collection of Rates Bill, for the purpose of its going
into Committee, in order that several alterations
that were required might be made in that Bill. He should
propose to take the second reading ou Thursday next.
Colonel WOOD had no objection to the adoption of
that course, upon the understanding that the Bill should
bps committed pro forma, printed, and a day fixed for the
discussion of the Bill.

POOR-LAW COMMISSIONERS CONTINU-
ANCE BILL.
Colonel WOOD said that there was another Bill
stood for a second reading this evening, which he
wished to call the attention of the Noble Lord to.
Ile alluded to the Poor-law Commissioners Con-
tinuance Bill. The object of that Bill was to con-
tinue the duties of the Poor-law Commissioners for
another year. He presumed, on assenting to the second
reading of that Bill that Hon. Members would not be con•

(A great portion still remains to be cultivated.) The produce is
IN GREAT ABUNDANCE;

with fuel from the neighbouring forest to be had without end and at
no expense. There are strong indications of minerals to seduce
those who aim at a large income ; and the economist who sojourns
here, will find a very moderate revenue equal to the legitimate ex-
penditure of a splendid establishment. A Drawing of the Mansion,
which gives but an imperfect notion of its various beauties, may be
seen; and it should have been remarked that if early possession be
desirable, the abode is complete, and handsomely finished in the
English style, to be included in the purchase of the property.

THIS ITALIAN PARADISE.

The traveller need not be reminded that Tuscany is the most
favoured of all the Italian States, possessing a Government di-
rected by an excellent Prince, whose urbanity is proverbial, and
where religious intolerance, and an English Winter, are alike
strangers to the land. It would be exceedingly difficult to find a
parrallel case to the property under review. The Scenery is of stir.
passing beauty ; the climate opposed to all the inclemency of Eng-
land—roses blooming throughout the fearful winter that has
passed ;—its limpid waters and meandering streams;

AN AMPHITHEATRE OF LOFTY HILLS;

adorned by the Monarch of the Forest, in countless numbers, with

VALLEYS TEEMING IN WILD FERTILITY

Independently of this very imperfect sketch of its manifold at-
tributes, which soar far above the humble pretensions of the writer
to describe in adequate terms, the worthy possessor has discovered
no inconsiderable tact iti having united not only the elegance and
coziness (if such a word may be permitted) of an English flre.side,
a, opposed to its comfortless contemporaries, but adopting b :side a
system of rural economy, combined with the Italian system of Agri.
culture, and
A DAIRY IN THE ENGLISH TASTE.

The Mansion is adapted to afford every comfort that a large
family can desire; yet ingenuity has so far presided, that the pro.
prietor, with a limited establishment, has never found himself over_
housed. Without this commentary it might appear a litile astound-
ing to know that there are eleven spacious Rooms on each suite,
a dining hall, 40 feet by 24 in height and width, and an infinity of
bedchambers; the window-sills throughout the Mansion are corn.
posed of Cedar and Cypress, a plan entirely opposed to Italian no-
tions, and water laid on throughout the range of Apartments. The
court-yard incloses Stabling for twelve horses, and standing for four
Carriages.
The Gardens are about two acres, and exceedingly prolific. The
Domain includes

I have mace trial of Mr. Frank's Solution of (70,iba at St.

BEER BILL.

Mr. PA CKINGTON begged to ask the Noble Lord
(Lord J. Russell) whether it was the intention of tl!e
Government to proceed with the Beer Bill, and if so,
when it was likely to come on ?
Lord J. RUSSELL, in the absence of his Right Hun
Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer, could not state
what day it was likely to be proceeded with.
PUBLIC WORKS (IRELAND).
Mr. ELLIS had moved fur certain returns connected
with public works in Ireland, so far back as the month of
March last, and he wished to ask the Noble Lord the
wSe-
cretary for Ireland when they were likely to be laid on the
table ? They were the more important in consequence of
the Bill for the navigation of the Shannon, which was now
in progress through that House.
Lord MORPETH said that same of the returns moved
for by the Hon. Member had been already received, although
the whole had not yet been completed. From the in-
quiries he had made it had excited some surprise that so
much had been done instead of so little. It app..nred
that great research and labour were required in making
out the returns which extended over a period of 39 .cars.
The Vice-Treasurer of Ireland sta•ed 11 a letter to him
that the labour was so considerable that it required, an ad
ditional number of clerks' for that purpose.
NEWFOUNDLAND.
Mr. GLADSTONE begged to ask the Hon. SeCrel,ao
fos the Colonies whether the Government bad sent out any
instructions to the Governor of NeWfotinaland,to institute an
inquiry into the case WhiCh had Iner,aiated ia a rnenio-
rial presented to that House, and complaining of certain
grievances ?
Mr. LABOUCHERE said instructions had been
sent out to the Governor to make a general Report
upon the state of the constitution of that colony.
Mr. O'CONNELL hoped the Governinent would send
out some proper and disinterested person to make the in-
quiry, because he was satisfied that the parties alluded to
in the memorial had been exceedingly calumniated.—
(Cries of " Order," and " Chair.")
The SPEAKER said the Hon. and Learned Member
had no right to address the House unless he had a question
to ask.

,OCl,i^tc X

Mr. O'CONNELL bad a ques'ion to ask. He wished
to know whether the Government intended to send out a
disinterested person or persons to inquire into the- facts
allrged in the memorial.

Mr. LABOUCHERE could not answer the question
until this Government had received the general report of
the Governor of Newfoundland relative to the condition of
the colony. At the same time he did not mean to express
any opinion as to the conduct of the parties complained of.
Mr. FIUME bagged to ask whether, if the report of
the Governor was favourable, the Government at home
wotild send nut any person?
Mr. LABOUCII ERE said it was impossible to state
what strp3 would be taken until the report was received,

merit, 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 Winghatn. 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 garden•, which claim to be distingu►shed 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

TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT ACRES.
THE PLEASURE FARM AND MARSH LANDS INCLUDE

TWO HUNDRED AND NINE ACRES,

anti wi❑ form One Lot, a large portion of which is in a high state
of cultivation, demonstrating at this moment the certainty of from
fiso to tix quarters of wheat per acre ; some capital clover and
peas, with meadow land of the first quality, the

quietly traversing through the demesne, and occasionally lending
its refreshing aid, beside the luxury arising out of goood fishing.
At a litttle distlnee is
THE RICH FARM IN THE MARSHES.
This inclu,les

EIGHTY-SIX ACRES OF SUPERIOR LAND,
in a healthy and luxuriant state, in spite of an unpropitious sea-
son. Also

THE TITHES IN THE MANOR
AND PARISH OF CHISLETT,

over 1160 Acres of rich land, and about 18 Acres in the Parish of
Prefton, in Two separate Lots.
The whole of the property has been in the occupation of Mr.
Slater, the present occupier, for a period extending over 40 years,
of whom it may be said
" You ne'er may lock upon his like again."
His having acquired a large fortune has been the necessary conse.
quence of first-rate talent and unexceptionable character and inte-
grity, to which he added so much of industry as to leave nothing in
doubt. A purchaser will do well to incline to his present anxiety
to take another and a longer term. The lowest possible annual
estimate will exceed
FOUR HUNDRED GUINEAS A YEAR

THE PENNY POST.

MEETING AT LIVERPOOL.
A public meeting, says the Liverpool Mercury, convened
by Hugh Horttby, Esq., Mayor, was held yesterday, at twelve
o'clock, in the Sessions' House, Chapel-street, for the purpose
of petitioning Parliament in favour of a uniform rate of Penny
Postage. The meeting, though not very numerously attended,
probably in consequence of the inconvenient hour, and the un-
favourable state of the weather, was most respectable, and em-
braced men of all parties in politics, and all sects in religion, in-
c!uding many of the principal merchants of the town, and seve-
ral Members of the Town Council. Resolutions to the fol-
lowing effect were unanimously adopted :—" That whilst it is
a subject of great gratification to this meeting to know that Go-
vernment have decided upon the adoption of a plan for reduc-
tion of the existing high rates of postage on letters, it also ap-
pears wile, transpired on the debate of the sth of July instant,
in the House of Commons, on the subject of an uniform Penny
Postage, that grounds for serious apprehension exist that this
highly important measure may, from various circumstances, be
postponed until a future Session of Parliament ; and that it is
therefore highly desirable that the strong feeling which per-
vades all parties In favour of immediate measures of Legislation
for securing a boon so anxiously desired, should be again
promptly manifested to both Houses of Parliament." Measures
to carry the resolutions into effect were adopted. Liverpool, like
Manchester and London, will immediately petition for the grea
boon.

IPSWICH ELECTION.

We have received an account of the nomination at
Ipswich yesterday. Considerable excitement existed
in the town, and some amusement was afforded by a
man appearing in the crowd with a turned coat, and
some quarrels were provoked by much pelting with
rotten eggs.

Sir 11.9 BERT HARLAND proposed Mr. Gibson.
F. F. SEEKAmP seconded the nomination.
Sir C. B. VERE. M.P., nominated Sir Thomas
Cochrane.

J. C. COBBOLD seconded the nomination.
Mr. GIBSON first, and then Sir THOMAS COCHRANE,
addressed the electors at some length, but we have no
room for the speeches.
A show of hands having been called for, the majority
was declared by the Mayor in favour of Mr. Gibson.
A poll was then demanded by Mr. Cobbold on behalf
of Sir Thomas Cochrane.

The poll will close at four o'clock this day.

NEW CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—The
Sessions terminated yesterday, and during the day several
prisoners, whose judgments had been respited, were
brought up to receive sentence. The more important
sentences had been pronoucced on conviction, and have
already appeared in the public papers. At its rising, the
Court adjourned to Monday the 10th of August next.
Woor--For many years there has not been so
much wool pitched in the market as this year,—in conse-
quence, perhaps, of wool buyers not having gone round to
purchase at f,srm houses. Fine fleece wool sold at 154 d.
to 1(3,.). per lb and some veil choice lots at 17d. Lam-13's
wool I3d. to 15d per lb. Hill wool obtained the same
prices that were obtained at Stretton, as noticed last week.
