SALE OF AN ESTATE IN WOR-

CESTERSIIIRE.

Mr. W. W. Simpson. of London, brought to auction
on Tuesday last, the 18th instant, at the Angel Inn,
Pershore, an estate si uate at Birlingham, in the Vale of
Evesham, in this county. The large room was com-
pletely filled with a most respectable and opulent assem-
bly, and after an appropriate address from the auctioneer,
a very spirited competition ensued, ac..d the estate was
knocked down at the sum of 17,0001. to Mr. William
Fowler, land agent and surveyor of Birmingham, and
the agent on this occasion for Robert Woodward, Esq.,
of Liverpool, who was the purchaser. To form an ade-
quate idea of the amount realised, we add the following
description of the property:—lt consists of a farm-house
called Birlingliam Hall, agricultural buildings, four te-
nements, and 196 acres of arable meadow and pasture
01./fl.thle2se.B3tadt.opearreancldmu.
laud, tithe rent charge free. The timber to be valued.
Also the tithe rent charges of other land commuted at.
under the gaeisidanCdba6p6teareroesf
trheen ti)cehaanr
Westminster for 21 years from Lady-day, 1846, the
remaining 130 acres are freehold. Mr. Clemens, the
highly respected tenant on the estate, holds, under a
tenancy from year to year, at a rent of 4504 per annum,
in addition to the land-tax of 181. 16s. Ild.

We leave the public to judge, with the above parti-
culars before them, if there be any falling off in the value
of landed property even at this momentous juncture,
which includes a recent fall in the Government securities
of ten per cent., and also a general derangement of the
monied engagements of this country.

DEATH OF PRINCE JEROME BONAPARTE.---Se-
veral journals publish the following as a communica-
tion:—" Prince Jerome Bonaparte, eldest son of the
youngest and last surviving brother of the Emperor, of
Jerome, ex-King of Westphalia, died lately at Florence,
aged 33. This young man had been suffering from
disease of the spine. Dr. Lallemande, who was con-
sulted when the affection was first discovered, gave some
hopes of recovery, if the patient could be allowed to go
to Vernet (Basso Pyrkees) to take the water. The
Prince's father, and his uncle, the King of Wurtemberg,
hastened to apply to the French Government for the ne-
cessary permission. This was refustd H ithout any rea-
son being assigned. On receiving this refusal the ques-
tion occurred, where will stop this blind animosity, this
want of judgment in persecuting with so thuch invete-
racy every being who bears the name of Napoleon? This
young man died in the arms of his father and his bro-
ther, lamenting that he could no longer hope to see that
country which he loved so much, and was 80 willing to
s,rve."—Geptani,
