The Efate Ss divided into four farms, and the tenantry modelled
on the old school—the primitive feeling is happily not extinct—in
-short_tha schoolmaster has not visited this neighbourhood the con-
sequence is that
CONTENT AND HAPPINESS ARE
DEPICTURED IN THEIR COUNTENANCES;
to which a singular fact may be appended
THERE IS NOT ONE GUINEA OF ARREAR.
The situation claims to be especially noticed; the grounds look down
upon a

RICHLY WOODED VALLEY, WITH
THE MONNOW RIVER MEANDERING BELOW,
so much prized for its highly flavoured fish. The panorama, which
is presented from the
COEDANGRA HILL,
should be seen in order to give a moderate appreciation of it. It
embraces a prodigious extent of country, in which is prominent the
Kymin, with its ancient tower. The Blorenge Hills,
GREAT SKERRID OR HOLY MOUNTAIN,
with the Black MountaiNi in the distance, presenting a landscape
not less diversified than beautiful, and such a one as would at once
incline a purchaser to add to it once more
AN ABODE WORTHY OF
THE M. P. FOR MONMOUTEL
There is plenty of game, lots of hunting, with two packs of fox
hounds close by, and
TINTERN. ABBEY AND PIERCEFIELD
are within a morning's drive. To this it may be added, that if a
valetudinarian be desirous of extending his lease of life, the climgte
is suited to give him a very long term. It is exceedingly mild, and
longevity prevails around. Snow is all but a stranger there. The
Upper Grove is a Farm Hens:, suited to a gentleman's temporary
occepatior.; and there are pews in two churches.
The Estate can be viewed by applying to the tenants, and parti-
culars had at the best inns at Ross, Monmouth, Newport, and Chel-
tenham, with plans to each; also at Mr. Rob;us's offices, London.

IN DEVON, NEAR TO CREDITON.

AN EXCELLENT PROPERTY FOR RESIDENCE AND

INVESTMENT.' r• • • •
THE FUIDGE ESTATE, ALTOGETHER 453 ACRES,
WELL TENANTED. ••
ON LEASE AT A LOW RENT.

R. GioRidi.RoBINS is directed to SELL
by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY,
the 2d of August, at Twelve o'Clock, in One Lot,
A VALUABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, •

suited to a residence, and admirably adapted to ,
_ A SAFE INVESTMENT FOR CAPITAL. ,
The property is desirably placed within easy reach of two capital
markets, and known as
THE FUIDGE ESTATE,
Seven miles only from Oakhampton and not far distant from Tiver-
ton, and only half a mile removed from the high
FALMOUTH AND LONDON MAIL-ROAD.
It consists of a

FAMILY RESIDENCE,
which within the last twenty-five years was erected at an expence
of near

EIGHT THOUSAND POUNDS,

the owner having probably in view the
REPRESENTATION OF OAKHAMPTON,

it is, however, imperative to state, that in the absence of the fa-
mily's utcupation, neglect and dilapidation become an un-
willing inmate ; fortunately, it' does not extend beyond ornamental
decorations. The building is most solid, the floors of oak, and with the
aid of a little tact, and a small expenditure, it will resume its former
rank, and the situation will be very encouraging to incline a purchaser
to this outlay. The scenery that encompasses this retired and de-
lightful estate, is decidedly very far beyond, any thing for miles
around, and the drive from the London road to the abode is ro-
mantic and beautiful. The views which are extensive, are termi-
nated by Dartmoor. The Estate is divided into
TWO EXCELLENT FARMS, . .

T•
(the Farm Houses away from the Manor House) consisting alto-
getherF of
OUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY-THREE ACRES '
of very good convertable land. The crops of corn give positive
proof of its quality, and its congeniality for turnips leave it no
longer a doubtful point. It is within a ring fence, and in the
occupation of two excellent and respectable tenants, on Lease,
at a rental much at variance with the
IMPROVED STATE OF AGRICULTURAL
PRODUCE ;

giving great encouragement to an increased revenue en the deter..
ni ation of the present Leases. The present low rental is
THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY POLINDS A YEAR.
THE REAL VALUE 450 GUINEAS A YEAR.
It should be remarked that tttis is quite independent, of the resi-
dence, gardens and lawn, which, after a few hundred pounds have
been expended will add an additional 1001. a-year to the income.
A sporting man will feel tempted to reside in a country where
there is lots of game, and grouse shooting, with plenty of wild-
fowl. Fox-hounds and harriers close at hand : fishing in abund-
ance,
and a rookery to diversify occasionally the quiet and re-
pose of this favored spot : to this may be added a must important
fact—The whole
FREE OF LAND TAX ;
And the Fuidge Farm is
FREE FROM GREAT TITHE, AND THE POOR-RATES
UNCOMMONLY Low;
to which it may be stated as a singular feature, te tenants have never
desired any abatement of rent, and during the severe crisis the rents
were paid within fourteen days after they became due ; the capitalist
will find very few parallel cases; it becomes, therefore a pleasing
task to invite those who have 3 per cents. at command to transfer
them (and before it is too late) into the more solid and permanent
security of land.
