TO CAPITALISTS. •
The attention of PARTIES desirous of =kith?: ADVAN-
TAGEOUS INVETMENTS in LANDED PROPERTY
is particularly directed to the following
VALUABLE andEXTENSIVE ES-

Estate of the Marquis of Huntly, which will be exposed to
PUBLIC SALE at an early period, of which due intimation
will be given :
Ist. ESTATE IN THE COUNTY OF FORFAR.
The ESTATE of FINHA VEN, in the parish of Oathlaw.
—This Estate, which consists of above 4,000 ACRES im-
perial measure, is beautifully situated in a fine agricultural
district, having the River South Esk running through a consi-
derable part of the Property, and is insersected by the Turn-
pike-read leading from the County-town of Forfar, to the
Town of Brechir:.
The greater part of the Estate is Arable Land of good qua-
lity, which is divided into Farms of convenient sizes, occupied
by a substantial and industrious tenantry. The buildings and
fences are suitable to the Farm, and in good repair. About
1,000 Acres are under under thriving plantations, of different
ages and of great value. There is no Mansion-house, but
there are beautiful situations for forming a Proprietor's Resi-
acne° upon the Estate. In particular, the sit: of the old
Castle of Finhaven, the ancient Residence of the Crawford
Family, on the banks of the South Esk, is admirably adapted
for that purpose.
2,d. ESTATES IN THE COUNTY OF INVERNESS.
1. The ESTATE of INVERLOCHY, in Lochabar, as
purchased by the Marquis of Huntly from the Trustees of Alex-
ander, Duke of Gordon.

This Estate is of great extent, and of highly improveable
character, The Salmon Fishings in the River Lochy are
valuable, and the Estate abounds in game of all the varieties
found in Highland districts.
2. The GLENGARRY ESTATE, as recently acquired by
the Marquis, and which forms an extensive Highland District,
is beautifully situated on both sides of the Caledonian Canal.
The Lands are chiefly occupied in sheepwalks by substantial
tenants, whose rents are regularly paid. There arc extensive
and valuable woods of birch, fir, and oak on the lands, chiefly
of natural growth, and the hills, which extend many miles in
different directions, abound with deer, roe, grouse, ptarmigan,
and black game, and the lakes and rivers with salmon and trout.
There is a large and convenient Manor-house and suitable
offices on the Estate, and the Caledonian Canal affords cheap
and ready access to the Low Country. In short, so valuable
and desirable properties, either for the eapitalist or sportsman,
seldom appear in the market.
