IN THE PARK.

A BACHELOR'S RESIDENCE, fitted up in unusual Taste,
with its valuable Items, in Lots.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL
by AUCTION, on the Premises, on WEDNESDAY next,
at Twelve,

_
AN ELEGANT LITTLE ABODE,
which puts in an incontestible claim to be designated
THE RUS IN URBE,

being literally
WITHIN ST. JAMES'S PARK,
although there is one entree by Storey's-gate. It has, during the
last few years had the benefit of much good taste in its embellish-
ment, especially during the tenancy of the Hon. Mr. Norton, and
subsequently for the by-gone year by
MADAME VESTRIS.
It does not pretend to accommodate a large family, but it is admir-
ably planned for a bachelor and man of taste and fashion, and as
A MENAGE DE GARCON
it is without a rival. The Furniture throughout is
DISTINGUISHED BY THE NEVER-ERRING TASTE
AND STYLE OF LOUIS QUARTORZE,
including the finest specimen of buhl, and especially
THE MAGNIFICENT CASKET OF
THE DUCHESSE DE BERRI,
inlaid by figures and characters in tortoise-shell ; a splendid library
table and bracket clock. A superb white and gold French bed-
stead and hangings, rich carved and gilt sofas and chairs, a splen-
did suite of rich brocaded silk curtains for three windows, pier and
chimney glasses,
NOBLE BRONZES AND MARBLES,
particularly an equestrian statue of Henri IV. and the 3larli
horses, marble statue of Lord Byron, after Thorwaldsen ; a Bac-
chante, group of Cupid and Psyche, Cupid and goats, statue of
Apollo, &c.

TWO FINE PAINTINGS BY RUBENS
of the Holy Family, a landscape by Wright, of Derby, and vari-
ous articles of taste.
May be viewed two days antecedently, and catalogues (at 6d.
each) to be had in Covent-garden.

BRIGHTON.
BELGRAVE-HOUSE, a MARINE VILLA, in PERFECT
ORDER for OCCUPATION.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS will SELL by
AUCTION, at the Old Ship, Brighton, on SATURDAY,
the Bth of December, at Twelve o'clock.
AN ELEGANT MARINE VILLA,
FREEHOLD OF INHERITANCE, most desirably placed
ON THE EAST CLIFF,
APPROACHING TO KEMP TOWN.
BE LGR AVE-HOUSE

has been completed within two years, regardless of expense, by
LIEUT.-COLONEL BROWN,

who, from circumstances not within his controul, most reluctantly
yields an unwilling consent to part with it. It is planned with a
♦iew to family comfort, and, although not large, abounds with
every essential; it betrays outward and visible signs that it does not
belong to the school of modern tactics ; unlike its countless corn-
peers, where speculative feeling alone existed, it is finished
with a regard to durability, and the situation cannot be ex,iclled ;
amid its innumerable views, which are greatly facilitated by the
Balconies, are

THE CHAIN PIER,
THE. LEADING ORNAMENT OF BRIGHTON,
with a long line of coast, taking a bird's-eye view of "famed Kemp
Town," and an interminable one of the ocean. The east front
displays architectural taste well worthy of imitation ; and the
accommodation within is precisely of a character to suit those who
are not ambitious to partake of the annoyance arising out of
" TOO MANY SPARE BEDS ; '
comfort, however, presides throughout, and its decoration is in
good keeping with the whole ; it is in the most perfect order for
instant occupation, and if a purchaser feels inclined to aid his an-
nual income by letting it furnished he may do so without risk.
The suitable furniture and appendages may be purchased at a va-
luation, and immediate possession will be given, in order that the
enjoyment of the
APPROACHING FASHIONABLE SEASON

may be added to its many agremehs.
Particulars will be ready fourteen days antecedent to the sale, to
be had at the Old Ship (one of which will be a passport to see the
house, from twelve till three) ; also to be had at Wright's and Par-
son's Libraries ; the Auction Mart ; and at the Offices, in Covent-
garden.

On the banks of LOCH LOMOND, a distinguished ESTATE for
OCCUPATION or INVESTMENT, FIVE MILES from
DUMBARTON, and within TWENTY-FIVE HOURS'
JOURNEY of LONDON.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS has great pleasure in
announcing that he is favoured by the Instructions of the
Proprietor to OFFER FOR SALE by PRIVATE TREATY, a
singularly delightful Freehold Estate, including
THE CASTLE OF TULLICHEWEN,

presenting- one of the
FINEST SPECINIENS OF GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE,
WITH ITS BEAUTIFUL PARK, CULTIVATED LANDS,
AND EXTENSIVE WOODS,
Delightfully situate within Five Miles of the
GIGANTIC ROCK AND FORTRESS OF DUMBARTON,
on the most interesting point of the Clyde, and only Twenty miles
from the city of Glasgow.
This splendid Property is now, by means of the Birmingham
and Grand Junction Railways and the Steam Communication,
brought within a short Journey of
TWENTY-FIVE HOURS FROM THE GREAT
METROPOLIS.
THE CASTLE STANDS PROUDLY IN A FINELY
WOODED PARK,
and it is one of the leading features of this renowned spot, overlooking
the most magnificent Scenery of Scotland,, and altogether commen-
surate to the legitimate claims of
SCOTCH AND ENGLISH HOSPITALITY.

A NOBLEMAN OF RANK,
will be quite at his ease ; although one of less pretensions, and who
desires only to locate at Tullichewen for a limited season, will find
the great desideratum of its not being inconveniently large, with
the recreation of

SHOOTING, AND FISHING,
as auxiliaries, to an extent that few can parallel.
THE DEMESNE EXTENDS TO
FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX IMPERIAL ACRES;
the cultivated land is underlet at 5001. a-year, independently of the
woods, which are in high condition. The mansion is suitably fur-
nished; the aid of Gillow and Dowbiggin, the celebrated artistes
in decorative furniture, having been called in to complete it; and
the appendages, in Pictures and articles of taste and vertu, give to
it a decided supremacy over all its neighbouring rivals. The
offices are fully equal to the most sanguine expectation. The
moors do not merely find excellent pasturage for the cattle,
but ample scope for those who would recreate in shooting black and
red grouse, woodcocks, and all sorts of game.
LOCH LOMOND,
THE " NE PLUS ULTRA" OF SCOTLAND'S FAMED
LAKES,
within a short mile of the Castle and demesne, will delight the
amateurs in wild fowl shooting; and those inclined to salmon and
trout fishing will find it to their hearts' content in the River Leven.
Such is an imperfect outline of a few of the prominent attributes
to which this famed property puts in an irresistable claim. The
difficult task, however, is still in abeyance—to pourtray in suitable
language
THE SURPASSING BEAUTY OF THE SPLENDID
SCENERY, EMBRACING THE LOVELY LOCH AND
LOFTY BEN LOMOND,
(the greatest features amid Scotland's never-ending splendour
and variety) is an undertaking to which the humble individual
intrusted with the conduct of this sale feels most acutely how
inadequate he is to the duty that has been imposed on him ;
his chief relief, nay, " his main stay" (if he may be permitted the
observation), arises out of a reminiscence that even
SCOTIA'S OWN BARD.
found himself in the same dilemma. All those who have not par-
taken of the good fortune to sojourn amid the beauteous scenery
before alluded to, or to behold Loch Lomond sleeping in the arms
of her hundred hills by
THE LIGHT OF A SEPTEMBER MOON,
he would invoke with all humility, yet earnestness, to search for
what the greatest novellist of by-gone days has said of
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL OF
ALL THE CALEDONIAN LAKER.
The magic touch of his never-erring muse must awaken a sensation
first to see and then to possess
THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THIS VICINITY,
" So wondrous wild, the whole might seem,
The
escreenmeermy
bncorfaafaeiry dream."
Next in our kind
IS BEN LOMOND,
which will necessarily partake of its due weed of praise.
This mountain,
LIKE SAUL AMIDST HIS COMPANIONS,
o'ertops all contemporaries. The valley, teeming in wild fertility,
relieved by pastures and corn land, and varied by
ALL THE SOFTER BEAUTIES OF NATURE,
completes a scene which can only be appreciated by ocular demon-
stration. To conclude, it is desirable to make known that this in-
valuable property is offered for sale at a price to give ample return
of interest upon the capital, and one half of the purchase-money
may remain on security of the Estates, at four per cent. There
are three beautiful Views of the Castle and Loch to be seen at
Mr. Robins's Offices.

3. That in the judgment of this Committee, the Evidence given
by the Lessees of Church property, and their Agents, and by the
Agents of the Bishops, of the Deans and Chapters, and of the other
holders of Church property, incontestably demonstrates that the
present system of leasing such property is injurious to all parties ;
to the owner for the time being and to his successor, each of whom
receives, through the system of Fines, but a proportion of the fair
value, is without a certain income, and whose means are regulated
by the frequency of death; to the Tenants, whose tenure restrains
them from improving the property ; and to the nation, 'which suf-
fers by the absence of the wealth which an improved system of ma-
naging Church property would produce ; and that this Committee
agree in the opinion generally expressed by the Witnesses, that the
enfranchisement of Church property would be greatly beneficial to
the Church, the Tenants, and the Nation.

4. That considering that all the Witnesses examined by the
Committee are, with but two exceptions, connected with Church
property, or dependant upon the Clergy of the Established Church ;
considering the admissions and statements made by them ; consider-
ing the greatly increased value which would be given to the estates
by enfranchisement ; and considering the statements and calcula-
tions made by Mr. Finlaison, which have not been successfully
impeached; this Committee is of opinion that the plan for defraying
the expenses, hitherto discharged by Church-rates, out of a fund to
arise from an improved mode of managing Church property, re-
cently proposed to Parliament by the Right Honourable the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer, is entitled to the support of the Nation,
and the sanction of the Legislature.
5. That this Committee have learned, with indignation and sor-
row, that the Bishops of St. Asaph, Winchester, Worcester, and
Lincoln, have not replied to the application of the Select Com-
mittee for information connected with Church property in their
Dioceses ; and that the Bishops of Bangor, Carlisle, Exeter,
Gloucester, and Bristol, Oxford, and Rochester, have refused to
comply with such application : that this Committee view the con-
duct of these Bishops as designed to raise obstacles in the way of a
successful prosecution of the duties and objects of the Select Com-
mittee, and as adapted to continue that bitter strife which it should
be the especial effort of Christian ministers to allay. But this Com-
mittee assure themselves that the House of Commons will adopt
speedy and effective measures to maintain their own privileges, and
to obtain the information required by the Select Committee.
6. That this Committee are of opinion that, should the Select
Committee be re-appointed for the purpose of receiving further
evidence, it would be just and fair, considering that nearly all the
witnesses hitherto examined by them are connected with or under
the influence of the Church, they should receive evidence chiefly
from parties unconnected with and independent of the Church.
7. That this Committee renew their protest against any scheme
for settling the Church-rate question which should propose to trans-
fer the burthen of maintaining the buildings and worship of the
Established Church to the Land Tax, the Consolidated Fund, or
any other branch of the National Revenue : that this Committee
repeat their earnest solicitations to the opponents of Church-
rates in all parts of the land to resist the imposition of Church-
rates by every means which the British Constitution permits, and
which religion sanctions : and they especially urge upon them the
desirableness of their pressing the subject upon the attention of their
representatives in Parliament at the present time: and that this Com-
mittee resolve to persevere in the agitation of the question in every
form until Church-rates shall be entirely:and for ever extinguished.
