SALES BY AUCTION.

IN DORSETSHIRE, CLOSE TO THE BOROUGH TOWN OF
WAREHAM.
A MOST ELIGIBLE PROPERTY, EITHER FOR OCCUPATION
OR INVESTMENT, COSIPRI.4NO A PLEASANT MODERN
RESIDENCE, EXCELLENT FARM BUILDINGS, AND 295
ACRES OF SUPERIOR ARABLE AND DAIRY LAND, FREE
FROM LAND-TAX AND GREAT TITHE.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed by the
Devisees in Trust of the late Harry Hammond, Esq., to
submit to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, London,
on THURSDAY, December 3d, at Twelve, in One Lot,
A truly desirable FREEHOLD PROPERTY, presenting to the
capitalist an investment free from the slightest doubt or risk. It is
in the parish of East Stoke, yet within the limits of
THE BOROUGH TOWN OF WAREHAM,
a matter of no small importance to a proprietor, and for a tenant at
all times ensuring the readiest sale for the produce, while the markets
of Poole and Dorchester are easily commanded, and shortly
the railway from Southampton to Dorchester will lend its powerful
aid to give fresh impetus to this district, by rendering the London
market accessible. It is known as
THE BESTWALL AND SWINEFINM FARMS,
OF 295 ACRES OF RICH DAIRY AND ARABLE LAND,
and it will be in the recollection of those acquainted with the county
that they were for many years the pet farms, or better known as
THE MODEL FARMS OF THE LATE SIR CLAUDE SCOTT,
BART.,
by whose untiring energy, skill, and outlay, they were not only
brought to a high state of cultivation, but by the formation of an
embankment of vast extent, with a most perfect system of draining
and irrigation, some of the richest dairy and corn land in the county
was secured, as well as a constant supply of manure from the deposit
from the river. The late proprietor, at very considerable cost, erected
A GENTLEMANLY ABODE,
offering excellent accommodation for a family, approached by a
lodge entrance, through a most luxuriant shrubbery walk, adorned
with an infinity of choice flowering plants, to the lawn and pleasure-
garden, from whence a view of singular magnificence is obtained, in-
duding the long range of
THE DORSETSHIRE HILLS,
THE MAJESTIC RUINS OF CORFE CASTLE
being a prominent object; whilst the home view commands Lord
Rivers' estate of Redcliff and the Wareham River, which yields a
never-failing supply of fish, and in the season wild fowl in abun‘lance
—irresistible attractions to a sporting man—to whom it should be
known that there are frequent meetings of Mr. Farquharson and
Mr. Drax's hounds. There are two farm-houses, with most com-
plete agricultural buildings ; and an excellent "gravelled road runs
through the estate, communicating with each field. Several cottages
and every essential for conducting an extensive dairy farm with ad-
vantage ; and if at any time desired, the estate can be divided into
two farms. Early possession may be had.
The estate may be viewed by applying to Mr. House, at the resi-
dence, and particulars, with a plan, obtained ; also of R. D. Marsh-
field, Esq., solicitor, and the Red Lion, Wareham ; New Inn, Wim-
borne ; Crown, Blandford ; Antelope, Poole ; Antelope, Sherborne ;
King's Arms, Dorchester ; Matcham's Hotel, Southampton ; of

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE

NEW CARRIAGE.—Mr. Booth, the carriage builder to
the North-Western, has lately constructed a first-class
carriage upon a new and improved principle. The car-
riage is adapted for the accommodation of four-and-
twenty passengers, with guards and luggage, and mea-
sures twenty-seven feet in length, by the usual width.
It is divided into four bodies or compartments in one
length, containing six divisions each, and runs upon
eight wheels. The frame work is constructed in the
usual manner, with springs, &c., but is divided into two
parts, which, being separate, move on their own centres.
The superiority of Mr. Booth's invention over the usual
carriage consists in the increased accommodation afforded
to passengers, the absence of any oscillation, the light-
ness of the draught, and the great facility and safety in
rounding curves. The carriage has lately made several
journeys to London. The cost of construction amounts
to about six hundred pounds.
FAS,L OF A BUILDING ON THE FRENCH NORTHERN
LINE.—On Friday last, the large wooden building at
Lisle, in which the company gave the banquet to the
Princes and the company invited to the inauguration of
the line, and which was recently being prepared for a
waiting-room for passengers, fell with a frightful crash.
Not one of the supporting timbers resisted. Fortunately
the numerous workmen employed within had just gone
to breakfast. Had they remained a few minutes longer,
the consequences would have been most calamitous. The
excavation of the earth around the supporting beams was
the cause of the accident

The Jamaica journals describe a singular detention on
the line between Spanish-town and Kingston. It appears
that the train did not arrive at Spanish-town on Tues-
day evening until six o'clock, much to the alarm and
anxiety of those who expected the arrival of their rela-
tives or friends. The account of the delay, given by
one of the passengers, states that the train started from
Kingston at the usual hour, and proceeded at a brisk
rate to Gregory Park, where it stopped. On making off
again, however, the engine was immovable, and after a
considerable time expended in endeavouring to move her
off by crowbars, &e., the engineer was obliged to back
the train for about a mile and then return. It then
proceeded to Grange-lane, where having stopped, the
same inconvenience again arose. After a great deal of
trouble the engine was again got off, and the train pro-
ceeded as far as Batty's-pen, near Spanish-town, where
it stopped to take in water. On attempting to move off
from there it was found to be a matter of impossibility,
Some persons attribute this untoward circumstance to a
part of the machinery in the engine having been disar-
ranged, while others impute it to an insufficiency of
steam, the train being excessively heavy, having no less
than five loaded waggons besides the usual carriages.
When in this last disagreeable situation the major part
of the passengers quitted the train, and proceeded to
Spanish-town, whilst the engine was detached from the
train and proceeded to Spanish-town, where the deficiency
having been remedied, it returned for the train, which
eventually arrived safe and sound.

IRELAND.
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.
DUBLIN, Nov. 23.—The regular meeting of the mem-
bers of this body was held to-day in the Conciliation
Hall. There was a large attendance in all parts of the
building. Upon the motion of Mr. O'Connell, seconded
by Mr. Edward Costello, the chair was taken by Mr.
Michael Dunne, justice of the peace.
Mr. RAY, the secretary, .having read the minutes of
the previous meeting,

Mr. O'CONNELL stated that he wished to say a few
words of himself in allusion to the attack made upon him
by the Times, for it was one of the most curious inci-
dents in his life.—(L•cud cries of " Hear, hear," and
cheering.) The Times had attacked him with reference
to a paragraph which appeared in the Cork Examiner,
and which it had copied, with the addition of heading it
Mr. O'Connell's tenantry."—(Hear, hear.) Now he
(Mr. O'Connell) had felt it necessary, at the previous
meeting, to accuse the Times of publishinf, what was
untrue, and sending it over the world that the troop of
people alluded to by the Examiner were his tenantry ;
and it had the audacity to publish an article since, deny-
ing that he had denied that those unfortunate people
were his tenants.—(Hear, hear.) What-was the fact ?
lie had denied it in the fullest possible manner in terms,
and had further stated that they were the tenants of an
absentee landlord ; and he would ask, was it not too bad
that such a paper as the Times should endeavour to
mislead the people of England as to his conduct as a
landlord ? The Learned Gentleman then read the re-
port of his speech from the Freeman's Journal of Tues-
day last, and also referred to the notes of the Govern-
ment reporter to show that he made this denial.
Mr. THOMAS STEELE then proceeded to attack the
same paper, for refusing to publish Mr. O'Connell's reply
to the Times' Commissioner, even for payment.
Mr. O'CONNELL handed in 201. from Waterford, and
read the following letair from Dr. Blake, the Roman
Catholic Bishop of Dromore, enclosing his subscription
of 31.: " Violet-hill, Newry, Nov. 22.

" My dear and venerated FrienCl,—Yoli will please
give my annual subscription to the Association for 1847,
being 31., with but this observation, that I remain sled-
fastly attached to the cause of repeal—more so, indeed,
now than ever, and am anxious for its attainment by
peaceable, legal, and constitutional means, and by none
other. I have no doubt that you will endeavour, by
your advice, and by your influence, as far as you can
consistently with just principle, to heal those dissensions
which distract, and afflict, and strike with dismay the
public mind, and I hope that all sincere repealers—and
there are still very many even among the seceders—
will, for the sake of Ireland's welfare, and for the love
and reverence which I am sure they bear to you, meet
your efforts for reconciliation as acts of condescension
on your part ; and when reentered into Conciliation-
hall, will not only adhere inviolably to your peaceable
course of arriving at the object of the national desire—
domestic legislation—but will also strenuously, and with
redoubled energy, second your glorious efforts.
" With the deepest sentiments of respect and grati-
tude, I have the honour to be, my dear and venerated
friend, your obliged and faithful humble servant,
__ _ "t M. BLAKE.

" Mr. Daniel O'Connell, M.P."
This letter having been entered on the minutes,
Mr. O'CoNNELL said he was prepared to bring up his
report upon the disunion existing amongst repealers, and
in doing so wished to say that no man was more anxious
than he was that the friends of Ireland should be joined
hand in hand to restore to her her Parliament ; but he
believed it was impossible, for it would be seen by the
report he was about to read that the question between
the Old and Young Ireland parties was, in point of fact,
should the Association adopt the doctrine of " physical
force" or not?—(Cheers.) The Learned Gentleman
then proceeded to read the report, which was of great
length, and set forth the various points at issue between
the Old and Young Ireland parties. Of
.the latter, the
report says—
" On the other hand, there now stands forward, as
the prominent head of a party, such as it is, a body to be
called, or at least to be known by the denomination of
The Literary Phalanx'—men who, with various degrees
of talent, choose to write in the attitude in which the
late Sir Judkin Fitzgerald declared that he wrote—that
is, with a pistol in one hand and a sword in the other ;
giving rather a ludicrous image of a Literary Associa-
tion,' with three hands and no heart. _

" The Phalanx' has now organised itself, or is about
to do so, and it cannot be expected from its members
that they will totally abandon the use of the sword.
They are too much in the wrong not to intrude that
sword upon our peaceable proceedings. They know that
all we want is the total and unconditional disclaimer of
the use of the sword as an instrument for procuring con-
stitutional rights and improvements, whilst we avow the
right to use that sword in the defence against attack of
an illegal and unconstitutional nature by domestic op-
pressors or foreign invaders."
The report then proceeds to give a detailed history of
Mr. O'Connell's own exertions previous to the passing of
the Emancipation Act, the organization of the Catholic
Association, &c., and again reverting to the superiority
of the moral force principles as opposed to the theories
of the " Phalanx," thus concludes:—
" And am I to quit a policy thus lauded, thusrsanc-
tioncd, even by those who demand a change?
" I ask this question, referring to another and a higher
consideration—am I to change this policy, this lauded
policy, to quit the paths of safety and prudence, and to
involve myself and all the members of the Repeal Asso-
ciation in legal crime and punishment ?
"It should not be forgotten that the slightest admix-
ture of the avowed principle of physical force—the
slightest shrinking from the exclusive use of the peace-
able principle, would convert the Repeal Association,
from being a legal and most meritorious body, into an
unlawful assembly, verging on, if not engulphed in, a
traitorous, or at least a seditious assembly.
" There are men who say that the law is unjust and
oppressive, and that much ought to be risked in order
to defeat its provisions. I totally reject every assertion
of that kind. I will never consent to violate the law
upon a chance of escaping punishment. Besides, I ab-
jure, in everything,-the physical force policy in seeking
for the repeal of any law.
"It has been said and repeated, and will be said and
repeated, notwithstanding refutation, that the Repeal
Association ought to have allowed the principle the
use of physical force to be debated, and that we have im-
properly precluded discussion by totally preventing any
such debate. Those who say so should already know,
or, if they do not know it, they should be informed of
the absolute necessity of our' continuing our organized
plan of obtaining the restoration of our national Parlia-
ment.

" Let me conclude by again referring to the state of
the controversy between us and the seceders. The ques-
tion between us and them is one of principle on our part.
It is a principle without which the Association must
cease to exist—the principle of seeking for the repeal by
peaceable and legal means alone. Founded on this prin-
ciple—adhering to this principle—refusing to allow it to
be broken in upon, diminished, or even tarnished by the
seceders, we devote ourselves to the cause of the Irish
people. We will never relax ; we will never compro-
mise ; we will never postpone the assertion of our right
to an Irish legislature. We will never cease our efforts,
till we re-establish the nationality of Ireland, and make
her what she ought to be,
Great, glorious, and free,
First flower of the earth, and first gem of the sea.'
" DANIEL O'CONNELL,
" Chairman of Committee."
The report having been ordered to be inserted on the
minutes by acclamation, and directed to be printed at the
expense of the Association,
At half-past three o'clock the rent was announced as
54l 18s. 9d.
The report read by Mr. O'Connell was substituted for
the usual " speech of the day." During the reading of
it his voice frequently faltered, and occasionally sunk so
low as to be wholly inaudible, except to those immedi-
ately around him.

THE ALLEGED ACCIDENT TO LORD CLIFDEN.--We
are happy in being able to explain that the serious acci-
dent which we announced in yesterday's impression as
having happened to Lord Clifden, in having been pre-
cipitated over a railway bridge, turns out to be incorrect,
although a very serious, and perhaps unprecedented,
accident occurred between one and two o'clock on Mon-
day to his Lordship's cousin, the Hon. Mr. Lascelles.
It seems that Mr. Lascelles and a younger brother were
on their way from Lady Dover's residence at Itoehamp-
ton to Camden Park, on two of Lord Clifden's horses,
attended by one of his Lordship's grooms, and when
near the bottom of Putney Park-lane, from some cause
not understood, the horse on which the elder young
gentleman was riding became unmanageable, and darted
off at full speed. On passing over the high railway
bridge on Barnes-common he came with all his force
against the parapet, very much injuring himself, and
lacerating the leg and ankle of the rider, who was, by
the concussion, thrown over, falling on the metal rail
below. He was here taken up by the railway policeman
and two or three persons who saw the accident, perfectly,
senseless, with wounds on several parts of bis body, in-
dependently of the great injury done to his leg. In this
state he was immediately removed in a cart to the resi-
dence of Mr. Shillito, surgeon, at Putney, where he
remained full three hours before it was considered safe
for Lady Dover (who had hastened to him on hearing of
the accident) to remove him to her Ladyship's residence
in the neighbourhood. We are happy to find that, con-
sidering the complication and serious nature of the
injuries he has received, he is going on favourably.

..
RODI3ERY AFTER:ATTENDING A FUNERAL.—George
Day, a lime burner, was brought before the county ma-
gistrates at Rochester, on Monday, on a charge of hav
ing robbed his uncle, John Day, of a silver watch and
295. in money. On Friday the prosecutor had been to
the funeral of his brother, the father of the accused,
and in the evening accompanied the prisoner to the
Lower Bell public-bouso, on the Maidstone road, where
they sat for some time drinking together. The prose-
cutor, stupified with liquor, fell asleep, and whoa he
awoke, about half-past one o'clock in the morning, dis-
covered that he had been robbed. The nest day the
prisoner pawned the watch at Rochester, and afterwards
disposed of the ticket to another man, and the same day
was taken into custody at the Nag's Head public-house.
He was committed to Maidstone Gaol fur trial at the
next Quarter Sessions.
