For Assuring the Lives of Persons in every profession and, station,

MANSION and ESTATE, FOSTON.
A most unusually valuable and desirable FREEHOLD
and TIT HE-FREE ESTATE is now on SALE, by Private Con-
tract.

It comprehends a Mansion, which is most commodious and
replete with every convenience, extensive stables, &c., and all
requisite out-offices, &c., delightfully situate in the centre of
the Estate. The land is undulating and park-like in appear-
ance; the Demesne, about 500 acres of very superior arable
meadow, pasture, and wood land, within a ring fence, situate
at Poston, in the North Riding of Yorkshire, ten miles from
York. This estate is in a beautiful well-wooded agricultural
district, and possesses in a very superior degree everything
requisite, or that can be desired, in a country residence. The
neighbourhood is very good, but the great feature of this property
is the extraordinary fertility of the land. The p. oductiveness and
feeding qualities of the pastures, and the abundant crops of turnips,
seeds and corn on the arable lands, justly place this Estate as first-
class land, and which the rental confirms, the Estato realising up-
wards of 1,0001. a year. The parochial rates are exceedingly low.
The Estate is ornamented with fine timber, and the roads and ap-
reaches are exceedingly good. The Estate is well stoc ed with
game, and surrounded by the well-known preserves of Castle Howard,
Whitwell, and Howsham. T., the fox-hunter the situation is very de-
sirable, being within easy distances of two celebrated packs of hounds.
The .conveniences of railways are also very great, without any
of the inc.envendences, as the railway is out of sight of the Mansion,
and at the nearest point of the railway (three-quarters of a mile) to
the Mansion is a station. All the circumstances of this estate are
singularly desirable, and such as are very rarely to be met with or
offered to the public. Two-thirds of the purchase-money may remain
on mortgage of the estate.
Arply to Mr. Thomas Buxton, Land Agent, Melton, to view the
estate; for price and other particulars apply at the offices of Mr.
Gray, Solicitor, Pezergate, York ; Messrs. Bell, Broderick, and Bell,
Solicitors, Bow Church-yard, London ; and Mr. Richard Simpson,
jun., Selicaor, King-street, Manchester.

THE MOST DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT EVER INVENTED.
ei ARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
1,..) PAINT, specially patronised by the British and other Go-
vernments, the lion. East India Company, the Principal Dock Com-
panies, and other public bodies, &c., is particularly recommended to
the Nobility, Gentry, Agriculturists, Manufacturers, West India Pro-
prietors, and others, it having been proved by the practical test of
more than sixty years to surpass all other paints as an out-door pre-
servative. It is extensively used for the protection of wooden houses,
farm and other out-buildings, farming implements, conservatories,
park-paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, copy er, zinc, lead, brick,
stone, old compo, and stucco fronts, and tiles to represent stating.
The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to every other paint for out-
door purposes may be easily inferred from the simple fact, that its
use has been always most strenuously opposed by colour manufac-
turers, painters, oil and colourmen, and others interested in the sale
of common paints. It is also very economical, any labourer being
able to .ay it on.
Colours—White stone, light stone, drab or Portland stone, Bath
stone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark oak, light and
dark lead, light and dark chocolate, bright and dark red, black, and
brown, 345. per cwt. ; invisible green, 50s. , bright green, 60s. ; deep

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday
morning.
Scarcely any comment is contained in the public
organs upon the great events which continue to dis-
tract the attention of the people first in one direction,
thou in another—to the attack on Rome—to Russian
intervention in Hungary—to Prussian intervention
on the frontiers of France—to tha undecided policy
of the POPE—to the position of Austria in Italy—to
the approaching elections in Paris—and to the state
of siege with all its irksome accompanimen':s, the
gagging of journalism and the suppression of public
meeting. Add to all these exciting topics the defi-
ciency in the national revenue, the recast of parties,
and the doubts entertained as to the positive intentions
of the Barrot-Dufaure-Toequeville-Falloux Admi-
nistration—it must be evident that if silent, the
journals are only so "on compulsion." Take but
away the gag imposed upon the press since the 13th
ultimo, and we should have enough and to spare of
the commentaries of our Parisian contemporaries on
passing occurrences.
The National contains the list of the Republican
candidates for the representation of the capital :—the
chosen names being those of—Charassin, E. Demay,
Dupont (de Bussac), Flocon, Goudchaux, Guinard,
July (Ora), C. Malarmet, Proudhon, Ribeyrolles, the
principal editor of the Reforme, and Vida', the editor
of the Travail Affranchi. " Thus," it is remarked,
"as the one side, to obtain MALESVILLE, will accept
GARNIER PAGES, the other to have PRounuoN will
put up with GOUDCEIAUX."
The Republican list of candidates is analysed in
these words by the Evenement
" MM. Joly, Flocon, and Ribeyrolles represent the
democratic Revolutionists ; MM. Vidal and Proudon
the Socialists; MM. Dupont (de Bussac), Guinard, and
Goudchaux, the friends of the constitution; M. Demay
is a flattery to the army. As for M. Charas:in, a lite-
rary man, and Al. Malarmet, a worker in brorlz9, we do
not know them sufficiently to say %hat they represent,
unless it be literature and manufactures. But the party
of revolutionary opposition must be in a state of pitiable
confusion to have arrived at these desperate fusions, and
at these compromising arrangements, in which the name
of M. Goudchaux is written by the side of that of M.
Proudhon."

What is singular in the matter is that GOUDCIIAUX
is the very roan who once quitted the Assembly while
PROUDHON was speaking, unable, as he declared, to
contain his horror and disgust.
Besides the foregoing list, the .National, among
other interesting articles, contains a long letter from
a superior officer in the army, before Rome, dated
the 24th ultimo. Lengthy, however, as the commu-
nication is, it gives no further details of any im-
portance beyond those already published.
One of the thousand and one rumours prevailing in
the capital of the French Republic, as to the
intentions of OUDINOT, was to the effect, that in
consequence of the continued resistance of the
Romans the siege would be changed into a blockade,
a supposition which appeared in some measure to
countenance, by the continued reinforcements
dispatched from Toulon to Civita Vecchia.

The fourth number of M. de LAMARTINE's cele-
brated journal the Conseiller tlu Potpie, which had just
been issued, contained an eloquent article front the
pen of the great publicist, entitled Republique et
Anarchie; ou Democratic et Demagogic. Speaking
of the 13th of June, M. DE LAMARTINE observes :
" The day after his elevation to power, the Dictator
whoever he might be, would cry—To arms! Form
your battalions; pass the Alps on this side, the Rhine
on that. Cross the Pyrenees! Invade Belgium on the
north! Inundate Germany, Holland, Prussia, Poland,
Hungary! Raise the people in every direction! Re-
volutionize the continent. Begin the Crusade of Dema-
gogues in all directions, and you will unquestionably
follow your leaders—some of you through fanaticism,
others through tear." Do you know what would
happen then ? (continued M. Lamartine.) I will
tell you ; and with the same frankness, the same
certainty, as if the fatal event had already passed
before my eyes. I will tell it to you, because I
know it to be the fact ; because it is my business to
know the spirit that actuates foreign nations; the
strength, as well us the weakness of Cabinets • the cha-
racter of the people, the amount of armies. Well, then,
at the very first moment such an appeal was heard, you
would be like the swollen stream that overflows its
banks. Here and there, in Italy cud in'3elgium, on the
banks of the Rhine, in the smaller and insignificant
states of Italy, and Germany especially, you would
obtain brilliant success; you would sing a few Te Deums
—that is to say the Ca-Ira, the 7'e Deum of the guillo-
tine. You would enter Brussels ; you would fraternize
with the German and Belgium demagogues in the Prus-
sian cities of the Rhenish provinces ; you would raise a
part of Savoy, of Piedmont, of Genoa, and of Naples,
perhaps; perhaps even you might gain a first victory, like
Jemmappes, over the first Austrian or Prussian army that
would dispute Germany with you. But after all that, do
you know whom you would encounter as the rear guard?
Nothing less than the continental world in arms against
you I Yes, I repeat, the very day after you had de-
clared war against the Continent, England would pro-
claim the coalition. Believe it, it is England that alone
has it in her power. But so long as you only maintain
your own rights, so lung as you remain in your own
territory, while you do not violate the laws of nations,
and while you respect the rights of the people, even
England is powerless against you; she cannot form a
coalition without exposing herself to ruin."

This article created„ an extraordinary sensation
immediately on its appearance.
Actuated by a strange freak, the town of Rheims
has opened a subscription for M. LEON FAUCHER,
for his firm and energetic conduct whilst Minister of
the Interior.

M. RENAULDEN, the Prefect of the Bas Rhine, has
resigned, and his resignation has been officially
accepted—in consequence of his refusal to demand
that the department under his charge should be placed
in a state of siege.
All the accounts received from the French provinces
represent the approaching harvest as most abun-
dant. It is expected that the wheat and oat crop
will produce at least one-third more than that of the
of The

although the date (the 23d ult.) is sufficient to show
that the whole is a fabrication, Feeing that both the
last dispatch received by the French Cabinet from
General OUDINOT and the letter from one of his offi-
cers, published in the National, are dated on the 24th
ult. Here, however, is the paragraph :
" /1 Saggiatore, Turin journal, of the 28th ult., pub
16hes ale ter from the French camp, dated the 23d. It
was believed that the National Guard of Rome was
fighting with the soldiers of the chiefs Masi, Garibaldi,
Bartolacci, and Medici. If Sturbini and the National
Guard get the upper hand in the struggle, which appears
to have commenced, if 01,0 may judge from the firing
which was heard, they will open the gates of Rome to
the French. The tocsin was sounded in the city to call
the people to arms, but the people showed little disposi-
tion to respond. The National Guard and the Carabi
niers only wished to serve tor the maintenance of in-
ternal order. The Roman soldiers of the Legion refuse
to fight in open field—that is to say, they do not wish to
go outside the walls."
A letter from Chalons states, that within the last
few days a number of German insurgents have
passed through that town to offer their services to the
Roman Government.

A letter from Lyons states that the battalion of the
regiment in which Sergeant-Major LEROY, of the
engineers, has been appointed a Lieutenant, in con-
sequence of his having refused the patronage of the
Socialists, have presented him with a sword of
honour.

It was reported in the Assembly that General LA3lO^
RICIERE had accepted the. post of Ambassador to one of
the great Powers of Furs pc.
There was but little holiness transacted at the Bourse
to-day, and Government Securities suffered a further
decline in price. Some confusion gas created towards
the close of the day by the arrest in the great hi.ll of a
respectably dressed young man, who was said to be a
notorious clubbist. The, Five per Cents. opened at
87f. 15c., fell to 86f. 75e., and cioscd at 86f. 90c.

BADEN.

A confirmation of the fall of the fortress of
Rastadt into the hands of the Prussians has not yet been
received, although it appears to be rendered still more
probable by the accounts contained in letters from
Stutgardt, that part of the insurgent forces has crossed
the frontier of Baden and entered the dominions of
the King of WURTEMEURG. The Wurtemburg troops
were preparing to attack and expel the invaders.
According to the Deutsche Zeitung of the 29th ult.
the head-quarters of the Prussian army on the Neckar
are at Ettlingen.
The following paragraph recounts the flight of the
Provisional Government ; the news is received from
Friburg in the Breissgau, from whence we learn that
theinsurgent Provisional Government have arrived
in that town, the last stage on the road to Switzer-
land. The inhabitants of Lahr made an unsuccessful
attempt to stop the journey of the Provisional Go-
vernment and to seize the moneys which they carried
with them, and Mr. BRENTANO endeavoured to inflict
summary punishment on the " rebels" of Lahr by
.sending them a detachment of 500 Free Corps men
with two pieces of artillery, whom he instructed to
levy a large sum of money.
