FULHAM LODGE.
ONE OF THE MOST DELIGHTFUL VILLAS NEAR
THE METROPOLIS, IN THE KING'S ROAD, EM:
BOSSOMED IN ITS DELIGHTFUL GROUNDS, AND
THIRTEEN ACRES IN PADDOCKS, FREEHOLD A.
COPYHOLD, WITH A NOMINAL FINE.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,

By MR. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on TUESDAY, sth June, at Twelve o'clock.
ADELIGHTFUL VILLA RESIDENCE,
very long acknowledged as one of the most recherchee in the
e
environs of the metropolis. Amid its manifold qualifications,
great desideratum of being within three miles of Hyde Park, is not
the least.
FULHAM LODGE, and its DELECTABLE GROUNDS,
are in the King's Road, and yet so ingeniously placed, that, in its
snug domain, there is all the privacy that is so essential to recrea-
tion, after the bustle and fatigue of professional pursuits. The
full grown and luxuriant plantations exclude it from the public gaze.
THE LAWNS ARE RESPLENDENT IN FLO
AND THE AMERICAN PLANTS, SUPERABUNDANT,
every where, render it almost independent of change in the seasons.
Winter is hardly recognized at Fulham Lodge. It does not aspire
to the character of a Alansion, but it claims to possess every essen-
tial connected with WERS.

A DELIGHTFUL VILLA RESIDENCE,
and the offices within and without are alike of a corresponding
description.
THE EXTENSIVE KITCHEN GARDENS
are richly clad with well selected fruit-trees, adorned by Not and
Succession Houses, and
The disposition of the Lawn and Pleasure Grounds are worthy
of Repton. There are
THREE RICH PADDOCKS,
encompassed by lofty walls and oak paling, affording pasture for two
or three cows, independently of provender for the horse establish-
ment; and the situation is most inviting to those who would live
without drawing upon the resources of their capital, inasmuch as
a large meadow, enclosed by lofty walls, and an
IMMENSE FRONTAGE TO THE KING'S ROAD,
may be appropriated to
WELL SECURED GROUND RENTS,
and the adventure would be one without a particle of doubt ; the
tenure is

FREEHOLD AND COPYHOLD,
the latter quite equal to the former, subject only to a nominal fine.
May be viewed until the sale. Particulars at the Villa ; of
Messrs. Roy, Blunt, Duncan, and Johnston, Liverpool-street ;
the Mare; and Covent-garden.

AN ESTATE OF GREAT RENOWN.
EtiMOBE CASTLE,
IN THE RICH VALE OF SOMERSETSHIRE, WITH
ITS IMPROVED ABODE, AND A DOMAIN OF 600
ACRES AROUND IT; MANORIAL RIGHTS AND
PRIVILEGES, CAPITAL HUNTING, SPORTING,
AND FISHING. AND A PLEASING PROSPECT OF
A SEAT IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL
by AUCTION, et the Mart, in London, on THURSDAY,
the 7th June, at Twelve o'Clock, in One Lot,
THE DISTINGUISHED FREEHOLD ESTATE,.
recognized, from an early period, as
ENAIORE CASTLE,
delightfully placed between the Two admired
MARKET TOWNS OF TAUNTON AND BRIDGWATER,
and one of theigreat features of Somerset's favoured country. It has
during the last two years been reconstructed, and modelled, more
in accordance with present taste. Its outward form is of
THE CORINTHIAN AND lONIC ORDER,

and in excellent keepin with the interior, which claims a kuper-
abundance of comfort. It is embellished by Colonnades of Bath
and Portland stone ; and from the higher balcony the splendid
scenery is brought into immediate contact. It should be remarked,
that being disencumbered of many of its original superfluities, it
has now put on the character of
A COMFORTABLE FAMILY MANSION.
THE PARK AND DOMAIN OF RICH LAND
EXTEND TO SIX HUNDRED ACRES.
The situation of
THE FAR-FAMED PROPERTY UNDER REVIEW
renders it anything but an easy task to do it justice without en-
countering a fear that the writer may be charged with colouring his
picture too highly. To all those who belong to
THE SCHOOL OF SCEPTICS
Mr. Robins invokes a short but delightful drive to Enmere, in
the full assurance that they will return persuaded that the repre-
sentation, if it be defective, may be traced to its inadequate des-
cription.
THE SOFT UNDULATIONS OF SURFACE,
THE ORNAMENTAL LAKE OF FOUR ACRES
IN THE PARK,
THE SCENERY RESPLENDENT IN INTEREST, VA-
RIETY AND EXTENT, .
Relieving and deluding the eye into a belief that it is of boundless
extent, and within
THIS SPLENDID AND UNEQUALLED PANORAMA
may be seen a considerable portion of the delectable vale of So-
merset, the Welch Coast, the Mendip and Quantoch Hills, 1
THE FAMED GLASTONBURY TOR,

and Bridgewater Spire,
THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHT OF SPORTING OVER
A STRICTLY PRESERVED MANOR,
With plenty of good fishing, are auxiliaries not to be overlooked.
Tile neighbourhood stands high in repute for its social habits;
good-fellowship seems to prevail everywhere.
The following is a short analysis of the family accommodation
that dwells within this
" HIGHLY IMPROVED CASTLE."
On the ground floor—a dining parlour, drawing room, and break-
fast room, lofty and of large dimensions, a justice room, servant's
hall, butler's pantry, housekeeper's room, a kitchen adapted to pro-
ride a splendid repast to the respectable constituency of Bridge-
water or Taunton ; a Portland stone staircase, leading to the first
suite, wherein there is a library 48 feet by 22, and near 20 feet
high ; ten bed-chambers, and dressing-rooms.
" THE GRAND SUITE OF ROOMS" _ _

are in direct communication with the Paved Galleries, which give
great facility to the luxuriant scene, which is at one view developed.
On the second suite there are eight bed-chambers and nurseries
with abundant accommodation for the establishment; water-closets
judiciously placed on each floor, with offices of every description of
a corresponding character. The Mansion in its new and improved
state appears to call loudly for a favourable response from the
respectable constituency of Bridgewater or Taunton. Its influen-
tial powers are no longer matter of doubt, and one of the NEW
MEMBERS MUST DOMICILI ATE HIMSELF AT EN-
MORE. Much of the decorative part is in early progress, so that
the capability to display goad taste in contradistinction to the in-
firmity of the olden times, may be numbered amongst its many
advantages; and this observation will apply in a measure to the
Court-yard and outward buildings. The Ornamental Lake in
front may be increased, so as to form a considerable feature.
THE KITCHEN GARDEN
is Prolific in Fruit and Vevgetables.
THE PLEASURE GROUNDS AND LAWN

are adorned by an infinity of Evergreens and Flowering Shrubs.
The Out-offices are of recent creation ; detached and ',well arranged.
Coach-houses and excellent Stabling. Such is a moderated outline
of some few of the varied attributes to which Enmore puts in a❑
incontestible claim.

The Estate can loe viewed. Particulars, with a Lithographic
Drawing, may be had twenty-eight days prior to the Sale at t.h•

ham ; the Clarence Hotel, Bridgewater ; the Castle, Taunton ; of

Robin's Office, London.

HOLD ESTATE, 170 ACRES OF CAPITAL LAND,
WITH AN EXCELLENT VILLA RESIDENCE, SUPE-
RIOR FARM ABODE, LARGE GARDENS AND OR-
CHARDS..
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on Tit u asnAT, May 24, at Twelve o'Clock
precisely, by Direction of the Trustees, for Absolute Sale,
AN exceedingly Valuable FREEHOLD PRO-
PERTY, comprehending a
VILLA RESIDENCE, WITH DELIGHTFUL GROUNDS,
laid oat in good taste, and kitchen gardens, prolific beyond measure.
The residence, without pretending to much of modern tactics, has
an infinity of accommodation throughout. The offices are com-
mensurate (including hunting and Darr stalls, with double coach-
house, orchard, and home paddock); also
THE FERME ORNEE CLOSE BY,
with buildings of a superior character, together with a proportionate
quantity of
RICH MEADOW, PASTURE, AND ARABLE LAND,
immediately contiguous, are
ONE HUNDRED
IN AND SIXTT-NINE ACRES,
TH A RING FENCE.
The advantages pertaining to this excellent investment are by no
means of an every-day character—the
GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY PASSES THROUGH IT
in two opposite directions, as also
THE GRAND J UNCTION AND PADDINGTON CANALS,
to which it may be added, that it is not far from the Uxbridge
Alarket. It may be rejoined, where is there a parallel ease to con-
vert this fertile soil into a considerable annual revenue? It is in
THE SOCIAL VILLAGE OF SOUTHALL,
and in the direct road to Hounslow.
THE LANDS ARE EXEMPT FROM TITHE,
NO LAND-TAX, AND A MODERATE POOR-RATE.
Such are the few temptations held out to invest in the most perfect
security.
THE DEMESNE
is in no way interrupted by intruders.
TRUSTEES HAVING MONEY TO INVEST
will find this a singularly eligible opportunity of doing strict justice
to their trust.
Particulars may be had at the Red Lion, Southall ; White
Horse, Uxbridge ; of Messrs. narrison and Dobree, solicitors, Hart -
street, Bloomsbury; and at Mr. George Robins's Office, in Covent-
garden.

IMPORTANT SALE OF FIRST-RATE WINES IN
BOTTLE.

NEAR TWENTY-THREE THOUSAND BOTTLES.

MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL
by AUCTION, at the Great Rooms, in Covent Garden,
on MONDAY and TIYESDAY, the 7th and Bth of May, at Twelve.
A SELECTION OF WINES
OF THE VERY FIRST CHARACTER,

And sold under circumstances, that while it makes manifest that it
is a Genuine Sale, and without a limit as to price, proclaims a still
more important fact, that the quality of these Wines is such as to
justify and enable him to challange a comparison anywhere.
The facts out of which this statement is made are shortly these—
An eminent Wholesale House, of the first celebrity, has allowed
their duty-paid stock to accumulate by slow degrees, until it has ar-
rived at the immense quantity which will be stated below; and
the character of the vendors is demonstrative proof that wine of a
doubtful nature has never been permitted to occupy a place in their
extensive cellars. It would be almost invidious to select any for
particular praise ; they may all be eulogised with great truth and
sincerity, and recommended to those who incline in the laudable
propensity to indulge their friends with some of the finest Wines in
England.
THIS SPLENDID AND UNEQUALLED STOCK
TWENTY-TWO THOUSANDINCLUDES SEVEN HUNDRED AND
FIFTY BOTTLES,
of which the following is a short detail :-
379 dozen of the finest Clarets,l3l6 dozen of the choicest Port,
shipped by Eade, Johnson, and' and most approved vintages,
Cunliffe; including all the best! from two to eight years in
growth of the last 13 years. I bottle, the major part shipped
150 dozen Champagne, from! by Dixon, Fonseca, and others.
Most and others. ,370 dozen of East and West
CS dozen German Wine, shipped' India Sherry, including some

opinion that he has ventured to e 3
Covent -garden.

A FREEHOLD SPORTING FARM and RESIDENCE on
the ROAD to NEWMARKET, NEAR 160 ACRES, IN-
CLUDING ALSEY WOOD, of 60 ACRES, NEAR to
STANSTEAD MOUNTFITCHET.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on TUESDAY, May 1,• at Twelve o'clock,
in One Lot,
AND WITHOUT ANY PROTECTING PRICE,
THE ALSEY FARM AND ESTATE,
FREEHOLD OF INHERITANCE AND
EXONERATED FROM GREAT TITHE,
is delightfully situate on the verge of the high road from
LONDON TO NEWMARKET AND CAMBRIDGE,
only half a mile from Stanstead MOUNTFITCHET, and four
miles from Bishop's Stortford. It includes a comfortable residence,
called NORMAN HOUSE, with capability to add to it, and by a
judicious outlay, and a moderate sum, render it suited to a respect-
able yeoman. There is a large walled garden, with green-house,
fish ponds, and an infinity of useful offices together with the ne-
cessary farm buildings, including a barn 106 feet long, and a do-
main extending to
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN ACRES

of excellent and convertible land, conveniently divided, and lying
unusually compact, most respectably tenanted by Mr. Fairman, a
gentleman of high respectability, at
TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY POUNDS A-YEAR,
on lease, which will expire Michaelmas, 1841.
To a gentleman inclined to field sports this Estate may really be
esteemed as a " God-send ;" it is within three hours drive of Lon-
don and Newmarket ; the country is hunted by capital packs of
hounds; and the locale is famed for the abundance of pheasants
and partridges.
ALSEY FAMED WOOD OF EIGHTY ACRES
corroborates this assertion—it is renowned far and near as one of
the best covers for game in England.
Particulars in due time of Messrs. Nockolds, and at the Bell Inn
at Stanstead ; also at Bishops Stortford, Hockerill, and Newmar-
ket ; of Mr. Sawyer, Solicitor, Staple-inn; the Auction Mart ;

anxiety and humility, that the reader will avai: himself of (secular
demonstration, as the usual limit of an announcoment will nese,-

possessing a Government directed by an Excellent Primx, 'chose
urbanity is proverbial, and where religious intolerance and an Eng-
lish Winter are alike strangers to the land. It would be exestedinglY
difficult to ind a parallel ease to the property under review ;
THE SCENERY IS OF SURPASSING BEAUTY;
'pie Climate opposed to all the inclemency of England—roses bloom—
* throughout the fearful Winter that kas passed ; its limpid'
Waters and meandering Streams : _
AN AMPHITHEATRE OF LOFTY HILLS

ADORNED BY THE MONARCH OF THE FOREST,
is 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 art
English tire-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 largo
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 horns,
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 sednie
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 nation of its various beaaties,
may be seen, and it should have been remarked that if early pos-
session be desirable, the abode is complete, and handsomely fur-
sished 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.

WITH WHICH
" THE TRUE SUN" IS NOW

INCORPORATED.

LONDON :
WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 18, 1838.

Lord DURHAM leaves town on Saturday, we un.
derstand, to embark for Canada.

Sir FRANCIS BURDETT having been sent down
by the Tories to Leeds " with instructions to play the
the fool"—to quote his own phrase as applied to Lord
GOSFORD—acquitted himself on Easter-Mouday with
a zeal and success that might have excited the envy of
the expertest Merry-Andrew that ever wore a cap and
bells. We defy any one to read the Hon. Baronet's
speech, and not see how fortunate the Tories have
been in their selection, and how completely their
missionary has fulfilled, nay, surpassed, their ex-
pectations. In his remarks on the Church of
England, in particular, he was most felicitous in
his foolishness. " That Church," said he, " was
essentially the Church of the people, and its
wealth, the wealth of the people I" We should'
like to hear the Bishop of LONDON'S opinions on,
this assertion—he who is such a stickler for ecele-.1
siastical revenues, and denies the right of Parliament
to interfere with them, even in the slightest degree.
Not less fortunate was Sir FRANCIS in his cursory
remarks upon " rats"—_a theme in which he is pro-
Soundly versed, and which comes from him with pe.
Illinaliar grace and propriety. But the crowning glory
of his speech was his allusion to the good old time
of Boroughmongering, which he actually had the as
surance to regret—not directly, it is true, but in
manner that no one could misunderstand. No
when it is borne in mind that this " faded old beau"
spent the best portion of his life in denouncing the
Boroughmongering system ; that it was the one only
idea which his very stinted intellect was capable of
grasping ; that he wrote against it—spoke against it—
and made h his darling hobby—his pet grievance—
for upwards of thirty years—it is impossible to draw
any other inference than that the Hon. Baronet's reason
has at length fairly taken flight—gone, it may be, to
keep company with his Radicalism. Thus thinking,
we cannot find it in our hearts to abuse the silly, va-
cillating old man, though when we find him attempting
to crack dull jokes against Mr. BAINES, of Leeds,
we feel strongly tempted to exclaim in the words o
SHAKSPEARE--

" Fall to thy knees, old man ; how ill grey hairs
Become a fool and jester."
Sir GEORGE SINCLAIR fell into fits of the most
elaborate ecstacy, while bethinking him of the multi-
farious talents and virtues of the member for North
Wilts. According to him, never did such a states-

man appear on the political stage. The star of CHAT-
HAM paled before him ; and even the blazing sun of
PITT dwindled to a rush-light. He was " the most
unflinching, the most chivalrous, the most disinter-
ested, patriot of the age," resembling, a Field-marshal,
while he himself (Sir G. SINCL A IR) acted as his sub-
altern. This comparison is certainly happy, but it is our
good fortune to know of a much happier one. In the im-
mortal tragedy of Tom Thumb, it may be remembered
that Noodle makes a most enthusiastic speech in praise of
Doodle, to which the latter replies by an oratorical
burst which, to use a scriptural term, " passeth all
human understanding." Now, when we read the
speeches of the two Baronets, Sir GEORGE and Sir
FRANCIS—twin stars, the Castor and Pollux of the
political horizon—we are, in spite of ourselves, forced
upon the recollection of Noodle and Doodle, to whom
we think they may far more appropriately be compared,
than to a Field-Marshal and a subaltern.

We copy a paragraph from the Manchester Guar-
dian relative to the want of concert between the
Directors of the London and Birmingham and of the
Grand Junction line of Railways, by which the public
suffers great inconvenience, to enforce its recom-
mendations. The least which these Directors can do
for the privileges conferred on them is to study and
promote the public advantage, which in this case at
least is coincident with their own. It cannot be for
their benefit to drive passengers to seek other means of
conveyance, by detaining them three hours at Bir-
mingham before a train is ready to start for Man-
chester, and it causes much injury to the passengers
to be detained. We hope that the additional publicity
which we give to the just complaints of the Guardian
will cause the evil to be remedied.

It appears by some statements, both in the London
and country newspapers, that there are at present very
nearly two thousand provincial posts in the empire
which carry letters between large towns, some of them
going the distance of thirty miles for one penny per
letter. It is proved that these posts yield a consider-
able profit to the revenue, and it is therefore appro-
priately asked why a similar convenience should be de-
nied to the metropolis, and why we must pay twopence
and threepence for the service which at Birmingham
and Manchester is performed for one penny ? It is
added, that up to 1800 the post of the metropolis was
also a penny post, and as we are indebted to the Tories
for making it twopence and threepence, the Whigs, by
reducing this tax to its old sum, would contrast adran-
st*spilittlith the Tories. There can be no doubt of 1
