THE LAND OF PROMISE.

As the object of the Company is to encourage industrious set-
tlers, an exceedingly modcrate price will be reserved upon these
lands; small Capitalists, therefore, will find that for a very little
outlay, they may surround themselves with a tenantry, upon their
own Domain, that will raise themselves into an importance, which
neither this or any other spot in the world can present to them.
Steam-Boats visit the different ports of the Texas from New Or-
leans, and Mobile (from which they are only distant a thirty hours'
sail), twice a week, and daily conveyances occur from New York
and Philadelphia, both by sea and rail road, to New Orleans; all
the high Lands of the Texas abound in Silver Ore, and it only re-
quires the country to be settled to discover mines fully equal in
valua to those of

RIO DEL' MONTE,
which is in the neighbourhood.
ALL TIIE STREAMS ABOUND WITH GOLD,
which is now collected by the Indians, and bartered with Mexico,
and forms that great exportation that annually takes place from
that country to all parts of the world. Neither mines nor minerals
are reserved in the Grant_ to the Company, consequently there is
no reservation to the Colonists.

If amongst those inclined to be sceptical, it is suggested that
this fine territory may soon become tributary to and acknowledge
America as the Mother Country, it may be rejoined, that so far as
the interest of those who propose to emigrate is concerned, it
would be—

" A consummation devoutly to be wished;"
and would quadruple the value of these purchases in ono short
year.
In respect to the climate, it may be noticed that the springs and
summers are dry ; the winters mild, and frequently serene. Snow
is not seen twice in a century, and the duration of frost and cold
seldom exceeds a few hours.

Particulars, with Lithographic Plans, will be ready twenty-eight
days antecedent to the sale, and then had at the New York and
Mexican Coffee-houses ; at the Mart in the City ; at the Water-
loo Hotel, Liverpool; the Printer of the Manchester Times and
Advertiser at Manchester, and at Mr. George Robins's Offices,

SMALL V. ATTWOOD AND ATTWOOD.

This was a►► application on behalf of Mr. Robert Small,
one of the Directors of the British Iron Company, for a grant
of letters of administration 'of the goods of Mrs. Phmhe Att:
wood limited to certain proceedings in the Court of Excite-
(pr-r.

Dr. LUSUINGTON appeared for Mr. Attwood. The present
proceeding sought to compel his party to take one of two al-
ternatives which were equally prejudicial to his interests. The
alternatives were these : lie was called upon either at once to
take probate of the will himself, or to show cause why a
limited vdministration should not pass to another party. The
result of the first alternative would be to render it indepensa-
-I,le that he should disburse 3,0001. out of his own pocket,
the whole of the funds being locked up in Court. The re-
sult of the other alternative would be to place the administra-
tion in the hands not of a person who would hold the scale of
justice equally between the two parties. but of it person well
known to be the mere tool of the opposite party in the various
proceedings in the Court of Exchequer, and in the House of
Lords.

Dr. ADDAMS On behalf of Mr. Small, said the object was
merely to have a representative appointed. He was perfectly
willing that Mr. Attwood should have the nomination of the

PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY -

In the Loans' yesterday the Staffwi Disfranchisement, Bill,
.yith sonic amendments. tv2S committed, and the Ij.,2port or-
dered to be read to-morrow.
In the CommoNs' sonie private Bills were advanced a stage.
A petition was presented from the proprietors of the Tilnes
and three other daily papers, complaining of that
Ministerial measure which propos( =t an increased duty non a
" double paper." The Chancellor of the Exchequer re-
marked upon the obvious justice of making a double news-
paper bear an increased postage as well as a double letter.
The proposed duty had been fixed 50.',.31y with reference to
conveyance by post. , The Right Hon. 6,:.ntletnan announced
part of the
his intention to bring forward on Friday his linaticial statemenf
t
in a Cutovnirttce of Ways and Means. The re-commitment o
the Midlatul Counties Railway Bill was carried in a majority
of 153. Mr.
C4` ~,I3alkeloYN motion to admit Indies to
the gallery of the mouse was carried by a large majoritY•
Sir William Molesworth then brought forward the important
question connected with the recent appointment of Lord Bru-
derail. We will not weaken the force of the Hon. 13atonet's
able and constitutional .speCch by an attempt to describe it: it
must be read to be appreciated. He concluded by moving"—
" That it be referred to a Committee to inquire into the con-
duct of the Commander of the Forces in appointing Lieut.-
Colonel Lord Brudenell to the Lieutenant-Coloncley of the
1 1 tit Light Dragoons." The sense or the House appearing to
he against the motion, the Hon. Baronet was to with-
draw it, but a division was pressed, when he numbers were,
322 to 42—making a iPajority of 230 against to
by the motion.

IN THE KINGDOM OF MEXICO.

A LARGE TRACT OF VALUABLE LAND IN THE
PROVINCE OF TEXAS.

R. GEORGE ROBINS has received instruc-
tions to OFFER to SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart,
in London, on TUESDAY, the 14th of June, at Twelve o'Clock,
in a variety of Lots, TO SUIT MODERATE CAPITALISTS,
A considerable Tract of valuable FREEHOLD LAND, eon-

first respectability in New York, entitled the

and soil equal in every respect to that of Spain, Portugal, and Italy,
and capable of producing Sugar, Coffee, Cocoa, Cotton, Tobacco,
Wine, Silk and all the Spices common to the West Indies ; Co-

estimation, such as Pine Apples, Grapes, Figs, Shaddocks, Oranges,
Melons, Olives and Almonds ; and on the higher lands every spe

IN NORTH AMERICA OR EUROPE.
The territory is intersected by numerous Navigable Rivers (upon
which Steam-boats are already running) which discharge them-
selves into the Gulph of Mexico, and that immense River the
Mississippi, with abundant Streams in every direction, affording
power such as no other country in the world can boast of for Mill
and Manufacturing purposes.

extended form, topographical particulars, and a variety of other
interesting information, that must prove of great utility. The
property will be divided into Lots of 4,017 6-7ths American, or
3,615 ENGLISH ACRES EACH,
and the Company's bonds will be given to each purchaser. •

BROWN, TREADAWAY, BROUGHTON, J. EVANS, AND M. EVANS.
This was an indictment against the defendants for con—
spiring together to induce the wife of Roberts to quit her
husband's residence and to take away his goods. Roberts
was a person who had carried on an extensive business as a
butterman and cheesemonger at the west-end of the town.
In 1832, having been then above two years a widower, he
married Anne Evans, with whom he had been acquainted
in early life, for they were born and lived for years' in the

the close of the year 1833, when the conspiracy, which was
the subject of the indictment, was alleged to have been
formed. The brothers of the lady, John and William
Evans, were not friendly to the marriage, and they are
charged as the great instigators of this conspiracy.
The Jury returned a verdict acquitting the defendants
Treadaway and Broughton, and finding Perry and Brown
guilty ; but strongly recommending them to mercy, as they
did not believe that those defendants had acted with any
view to personal advantage.

HAND-LOOM WEAVERS.

Mr. WA KLEY presented a petition from the hand-loorn
weavers of some place in Scotland, praying for the establish-
ment of Boards of Works. The Hon. Member also
presented petitions from the factory colourers of Stockport,
praying for the establishment of a ten hours' Bill for la-
bourers of all ages, between nine and twenty-one years of
age. Also three petitions from Suffolk, in favour of the
Medical Witnesses' Bill.
POOR LAWS. _ . .

Major BE AUC LERK presented a petition from Ashtied,
in Surrey, against certain portions of the Poor Laws Bill.
He wished to call the attention of his Majesty's Government
to the prayer of this petition. The petition prayed that dur-
ing the present session some alteration might be made in the
Bills so that the Poor Law Commissioners might have power
to apply remedies to the grievances of which they complained.
It was his sincere hope that his Majesty's Government
would take this question into their consideration during the
recess, and give satisfaction to the poor people of this
country. If they did not, he should move that a Com-
mittee be appointed next session to take the subject into
their consideration.

EXTRAORDINARY HIGH TIDE.

For many years past the effect of the spring tides has
not been so much felt in the neighbourhood of Northum-
berland-street, Scotland-yard, Palace-yard, and along Mill-
bank, as in the course of yesterday ; the stables, right and
left., from the end of Northumberland-street, were completely
flooded, but providentially the horses were removed before
any injury Ives done them. The back entrance to the Po-
lice-office in Great Scotland-yard, as well as the office itself,
was also filled with water, and the space on which the
Court of Review (formerly the Star Chamber) stood was
flooded several feet inwards from the bank of the river.
The water was also seen flowing along the right-hand side
of the Painted Chamber, now used as the. House of Lords ;
and we understand that many of the vaults and cellars
which are situated under the range of the old House are
considerably flooded. The extreme coldness of the day
did not prevent the visit of many spectators to witness this
unusual sight ; and we heard several respectable persons
say that since the year 1795 or 6, when persons were
taken in boats from the end of Westminster Hall to the
Courts which were then placed at the further end, they
have never recollected so high a tide as the present. The
injuries and inconveniences which it must produce, parti-
cularly along the Surrey side of the river, can scarcely be
calculated, as whole streets are rendered almost impassable.
Several of the shops in Millbank were filled as high as the
counters, and the lower ends of Market and Vine-streets
were covered over for nearly a foot deep. Should the wind
continue to blow from its present quarter the accidents and
damage which may be done during the night will be very
severely felt.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury of April 30. )
LEEDS.—The same activity has prevailed in our cloth
halls during this week, as during the past two or three
months. Of some description of goods there is a very de-
ficient supply, and in consequence they sell readily at a
little advance in price. There continues a good steady de-
mand for goods in the warehouses.
HUDDERSFIELD, APRIL 2.—No alteration in our mar-
ket since our last account.

BRADFORD, APRIL 28.—Our piece market to-day has
been much about the same as for some weeks back, and the
same degree of briskness continues, particularly in six-
quarter-wide merinos, for which there is an extensive de-
mand. Though we cannot quote a reduction in the price
of yarn, a gloom evidently prevails in the market, anti
buyers do not purchase quite so freely as of late. The wool
trade continues extremely dull ; spinners are buying next
to nothing. We have heard of rather less being taken for
middle wethers ; the finer sorts remain very firm.

HALIFAX, APRIL 23.—We have had another flat mar-
ket ; very few buyers, and little business done. Stocks be-
gin to accumulate, and the manufacturers are very anxious
to sell at a trifling advance. Yarns remain much the same,
as they have been for the last two or three weeks.
ROCHDALE, APRIL 25.—The market was rather more
brisk than it has been for the last three or four weeks ;
goods of middle quality were inquired for, and low grays
for dyeing prices remain about the
same. tup ;
oehdale is good, and rill bands

THE FARMERS' MAGAZINE.

The agricultural interest has both zealous friends, and
enlightened instructors in the conductors of, and the con-
tributors to, this very useful periodical. The writer of a
letter, signed " A Cumberland Weaver," appears to us to
take a most comprehensive, as well as just view of the real
interest of the farmer, and the various communications on
the Tithes Commutation Bill, will be read with lively in-
terest by all whose property may be affected by the mea-
sure now before Parliament. The Agricultural Reports
are very fully given. The following review of the Corn
Trade during the month:of April may be important to many
of our country readers :

" At the commencement of the past month, the prevalence
of rainy, cold and ungenial weather, not only checked sowing
and field-labour, but prevented vegetation from evincing any
progressive improvement. Low, strong lands were rendered
unfit to receive the seed, and wheats in many places exhibited
a sickly appearance, turning partially yellow, and looking
thin and unfavourably; the re-appearance, however, of sun-
shine, about the middle of the month, had an invigorating ef-
fect on the plant, which assumed a deep and healthy green,
tillering out strong, and covering well the ground, while the
farmer has been enabled nearly to conclude the sowing of his
Lent corn. Vegetation and germination are extremely back-
ward, but under the mild influence of the present month, the
plants possess the full embryo power of rapidly advancing,
and partially retrieving the time that their vegetative powers
have remained dormant ; affording little opportunity, from ex-
isting appearances, to enter into further speculative purchases,
on the probable result of the crops ; as there is reason to be-
lieve there is sufficient plant to produce a fair average per
acre; but accounts seem to concur in stating, that the breadth
of wheat sown this season is less than usual, particularly in the
midland counties, which is attributable to the low price of
wheat, and the failure of the turnip crop having prevented
farmers breaking up land they otherwise would have done.
No doubt the backwardness of the season has operated advan-
tageously for the farmer, as it has been one of the causes of
bringing the state of the trade under more general notice,
added to the prosperous condition of almost every other branch
of commerce; indeed it is a gratifying remark to make that
our manufactures are in a state of almost unexampled ac-
tivity—our mines, that important source of national wealth in
full and profitable operation—our commerce busy, and con-
sumption, the faithful index and concomitant of prosperity,
going forward on a largely increased scale of all the necessaries
and many of the comforts of life. With a productive harvest,
grain may be now calculated at a fair value, but with an infe-
rior or even a middling crop, prices are yet low and will be
materially influenced by the weather."

PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY.

In the LORDS' yesterday, after the presentation of some
petitions, the Stamford Disfranchisement Witnesses Indemnity
Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-
morrow. The House then went into Committee on the Irish
Constabulary Bill, when the consideration of the several
clauses occupied the remainder of the evening. Lords Roden,
Wicklow, Londonderry, Ellenborough, and some other Peers
of the same party repeated their obsolete objections to the Bill.
The whole of the clauses being at length disposed of, the
House resumed, and the report was ordered to be received on
Friday.

In the Comm°Ns', among a great many petitions on various
subjects, were 29 for the total abolition of the stamp duty on
newspapers. Mr. Sharman Crawford presented a petition
from landlords and tenants of Ballyninny, in the county of
Antrim, praying for the total extinction of tithes, and all com-
pulsory payments on pretence of religion. They stated that
the compulsory Tithe Composition Act, instead of affording
relief, had immensely and unjustly increased the burthen of
the tithe. Lord John Russell intimated that it was his wish
to bring forward, during the present Session, some measure
on the subject of Church rates. The English Tithe 13111 was
considered in Committee, and 32 of its clauses were disposed
of. Dissatisfaction with its provisions was generally ex-
pressed, and by other Hon. Members than those who, with Sir
R. Inglis, hold that " the existing system of tithe is superior
to any that can be devised." The Dublin Police Bill passed
through Committee, and the House then, at Half-past Twelve
o'Clock, adjourned.

- Frosty nights frequently occur, and of sufficient severity
to injure some vegetable crops ; thus ash-leaved and frame
potatoes are liabl to be blackened, and lose all their first-
shoots ; earth, therefore, should be drawn up to the plants
so as nearly to cover them. They who wish to try the ex-
periment of cultivating brocoli without transplantation, and
to prepare for its security from the severity of the succeed.
ing winter, should dig trenches about a foot wide and eight
inches deep, in some plot of good mellow earth, breaking
the soil of the bottom of each, and blending it perfectly
with well-reduced manure ; the seed is to be sown in a row
along the centre of these trenches, and thus the young
plants being kept clean, thinned out to proper distances as.
they advance in size, can be gradually earthed up as the
stem elongates, till in Novembr the soil be brought close
up to the lowest leaves. The size which many plants so
raised attain will surprise those who have not before seen
them, the Portsmouth cream colour sometimes produces
compact heads which measure four feet in circumference.
The flower garden, parterres, shrubberies, and lawns,
will demand the usual routine culture, and attention to
cleanliness and order. The beautiful fuchsia tribe is in ge-
neral hardy ; and plants having been previously raised by
cuttings or layers will adorn every spot whereto they may
be transferred ; the soil, if not naturally light, ought to be
rendered so by removing a portion of it, and filling the space
with leaf-mould, white sand, and decayed turf. Of the
species well qualified to adorn the shrubberies none excel the
old gracilis, its variety, Eracilis tenella, and the virgata.
Our last directions for the green-house plants, and the
forcing departments for vines and the pine apple, may apply
equally to the present month. Grapes, in pots, properly
cultivated, might have the finest bunches, perfectly ripe,
at the commencement of the month. The art is one of
great merit and interest, but requires precision and nicety.
One dozen smallish pots could be made to bear 84 capital
clusters, and still leave the vines uninjured. We know
that it is not an uncommon circumstance to see from 20
to 40 bunches on a small single rod, scarcely five feet
long ; but no prudent gardener would permit the plant to
support one half of the crop which the maturity of the
eyes had prepared. A vinery, properly constructed, built
at a very light expense, and less than 30 feet in length,
would produce two perfect crops, one in pots to ripen nearly
200 bunches, between the third week of March and the
middle of May ; and the second, on the rods of the rafters,
excited in April, or even later, to produce ripe fruit in July
and August.

We do not to the present day appreciate half the power
or the utility of the vines, whether as respects the forcing
departments or the culture of the tree in the borders, and
in vine-yards, for the preparation of British wines.
