that are seated

ON A VERDANT LAWN ADORNED,
by an infinity of Choice Plants, which have triumphantly sustained
their beauty through the fearful winter that has passed.
A SPLENDID CONSERVATORY, NINETY FEET
IN LENGTH,
encircles one-half the domicile ; it has a paved Gallery, which is
in direct communication with the principal rooms. The accommo-
dation within is precisely that which a Gentleman of Fortune, and
not ambitious of being over housed, will desire; the offices are excel-
lent, and fully sufficient. The Gardens so prolific as to need no
auxiliary aid—it is within three hours drive of Southampton, and at
easy distances from Lyndhurst and Lymington, while London, that
in the olden times was far removed, is now brought within
A SIX HOURS' DRIVE.
Such are a few of the outlines connected with Boscomb, the inter-
mediate space will be more satisfactorily filled up by a personal review
of it ; it should, however, be remarked that
A MEMBER OF THE YACHT CLUB
will find himself in clover. at Boscomb; where his yacht may at all
times anchor in perfect security at either of the adjoining
ports of Christchurch and Poole, and in three hours join his Com-
modore, and

THE SQUADRON AT COWES.
The new Romantic watering-place called Borne (one mile distant)
is progressing at a railway pace. The splendid hotel is all but com-
pleted, and in a few short years, it is conjectured that they will
compete with the renown of Southampton
THE DOMAIN IS 190 ACRES, FREE FROM TYTHE,
AND A LOW POOR-RATE.
The land (which does not pretend to be quite so rich as in the
vale of " Somerset") yields excellent barley and oats, and for
Sweedish turnips is not to be excelled in Norfolk. The flocks of
sheep, while they improve the land, add not a little to the annual
income.

The estate may be viewed until the sale, with particulars, plans,
and a drawing of the villa, which may be had twenty-eight clays
prior to the clay of sale, at the inns at Christchurch, Lymington,
Poole, and Lyndhurst ; the Dolphin, Southampton ; Messrs. Lake
and Wilkinson, solicitors, Lincoln's Inn ; the Mart, and at Mr.
Robins's office, London.

THE BEECH HOUSE ESTATE, IN THE NEW FOREST,
WITHIN THREE MILES OF MUDIFORD, A FASH-
IONABLE WATERING-PLACE, AND A DOMAIN
EXCEEDING 450 ACRES, WITH THE MANOR OF
WINKTON WESTBURY.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to SELL
by:AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY,
the 21st of June, at Twelve o'clock, and unreservedly, under
special circumstances,
A FREEHOLD PROPERTY of SOME IMPORTANCE,
long recognized as

TIIE BEECH HOUSE ESTATE,
and for very many years accounted one of the
LIONS OF THE NEW FOREST;
within 9 miles of Lyndhurst, 5 of Christchurch and Borne (the new
Watering-Plage), 3 from Mudiford, 19 from Southampton, and
within a

FIVE HOURS' DRIVE OF LONDON.
THE ELEGANT VILLA RESIDENCE,
in its outward form, without being at variance with architectural
taste, does not sufficiently indicate the family pretensions that will
be found to preside within ; it is placed at a gentle remove from the
bustle of the high-road, embosomed in luxuriant plantations of con-
siderable extent and beauty. The approach is by two distinct
lodge entrances, and the drive is quite romantic to the verdant lawn
on which it is placed, and gives promise of the charms of scenic
beauty, which will be found continuous throughout this envied
spot. The Mansion is most substantially built ; it is encircled by a
paved Gallery and Balcony, which are in communication with all
the principal rooms, and leads to
THE SPLENDID CONSERVATORY, FORTY-FIVE
FEET IN LENGTH,
and to the Pleasure Grounds, which are of considerable extent and
beauty, adorned by little myriads of American Plants and Shrubs,
which, in spite of the severity of last Winter, have triumphantly
weathered the storm. Around this Mansion of comfort are
MILES of ROMANTIC WALKS
within its own plantations. The
WOODLAND SCENERY OF SURPASSING BEAUTY
appears in every direction interminable. Vistas well imagined,
and the distant scene extends through the valley to a perfect view
over

LORD DE ROTIISAY'S CASTLE
to the wide ocean.

A BEAUTIFUL LAKE OF FOUR ACRES,
and the Hermitage, not far off, render the picture quite perfect.
The aecommodntion within Beech House is fully adequate to ac-
commodate most perfectly a family of considerable pretensions.
The principal rooms are well proportioned ; the bed-chamber de-
partment complete ; and the offices for domestic comfort so perfect
as to leave nothing to be desired. The court-yard incloses stand-
ing for four csrriages, and stabling for twelve horses. The kitchen
gardens are extensive, secured by brick walls, with a selection of
the best fruit trees,
HOT AND SUCCESSION HOUSES, AND A GREEN

HOUSE.
THE PARK GROUNDS
fill up the intermediate space, which alone is separated from the
surrounding hanging woods. The domain extends to
FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY FOUR ACRES,
a portion of which is much underlet from year to year. As a de-
lightful retreat for a Nobleman, Merchant, or any one inclined to
the delight of field sports, Mr. Robins, in great confidence ventures
his testimony in favour of Beech House.

It can only be viewed by applying for the Bailiff, Mr. Jones.
Particulars may be had twenty-eight (lays prior to the Sale, at the
Hotel, Christchurch ; Crown, Lyndhurst ; Angel, Lymington ;
Dolphin, Southampton ; of Messrs. Oddie, Forster, and Lumley,

Inn ; Mr. Withers, auctioneer, Southampton ; Mr. Osborn, Hay-
ling lsland ; the Mart, and at Mr. George Robins's Offices, London.

IN TUSCANY.

A SPLENDID VILLA AND OFFICES, WITHIN 34 MILES
OF FLORENCE, 18 FROM SIENNA, E6PECIALLY
ADAPTED TO ENGLISH COMFORT.
EXTENSIVE GARDENS, AND A DOMAIN OF
THIRTEEN HUNDRED ACRES,
OF WHICH A LARGE PORTION IS UNCULTIVATED,
AMID THE MOST SPLENDID WOODLAND
SCENERY.
R. GEORGE ROBINS is honoured by the
respected Proprietor with instructions to

SELL BY' PRIVATE TREATY,
A SINGULARLY ELEGANT ITALIAN VILLA
and corresponding Offices, one of those especially adapted to mani-
fest without doubt the immeasurable difference existing in respeet
to the comfortless habitation of a Tuscan, and
THE DELIGHT AND SNUGGERY OF AN
ENGLISH GENTLEMAN'S ABODE.
On shis occasion Mr. ROBINS invokes, with all possible
anxiety and humility, that the reader will avail himself of occular
demonstration, as the usual limit of an announcement will neces-
sarily be a poor substitute for the varied charms that encompass
THIS ITALIAN PARADISE.
The Traveller need not be reminded that Tuscany is the most
favoured of

ALL THE ITALIAN STATES,
nossessing a Government directed by an Excellent Prinee, whose
Urbanity is proverbial, and where religious intolerance, and
THE ENNUI OF A TEDIOUS ENGLISH WINTER,
are alike strangers to the land. It would be exceedingly difficult
to find a parallel case to the property under review;
THE SCENERY IS OF SURPASSING BEAUTY;
The Climate opposed toall the inclemency of England—roses unceas-
ingly 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
attributes, which soar far above the humble pretensions of the
writer to describe in adequate terms, the worthy Possessor has dis-
covered no inconsiderable tact in having united not only the Ele-
gance and Coziness, (if such a word may be permitted), of an
English fire-side, as opposed to its comfortless contemporaries,
but adopting beside a system of rural Economy, combined with the
Italian system of Agriculture ; and
A DAIRY IN THE ENGLISH TASTE. '•

The Mansion is adapted to afford every comfort that a laigo
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 little
astounding to know, that there are Eleven
.Spacious Rooms on each
suite; a Dining Hall, 40 feet by 24, in heighth and width, and an
infinity of Bed Chambers ; the Window sills throughout the
Mansion are composed of Cedar and Cypress, a plan entirely op-
posed to Italian notions ; 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
THIRTEEN HUNDRED ACRES.
(A great portion still remains to be cultivated.) The produce is
CORN, WINE, AND OIL, 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
expenditure of a splendid establishment. A drawing of the Man-
sion, which gives but an imperfect notion of its various beauties,
may be seen, and it should have-been remarked that if early pos-
session be desirable, the abode is complete, and handsomely fur-
nished in the English style, to be included in the purchase of the
property.
" THE FEE SIMPLE OF THE WHOLE"
may be accomplished by moderate means.
Full particulars may be obtained at Mr. Robins' Offices, in
Covent-garden.

JAMES DOVER, Esq., deceased,
to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY,
June 21, at Twelve o'Clock, in One Lot, without a limit,
BOSCOMB LODGE,
AN ELEGANT MARINE VILLA
long distinguished from its neighbouring contemporaries as one of
the most select within this delightful vicinage. It formerly had the
benefit of all the acknowledged taste of Robert Heathcote, Esq. ;
this has since been confirmed and completed by the late excellent
possessor (although it will not be disguised that it may be improved
by a little embellishment in the minor departments, which has been
neglected during a long illness). Its outward form does not claim
to be in accordance with any particular order of architecture, bnt it
puts on an irresistible claim to comfort and good taste. The ap-
proach is by a Lodge-gate through
