SALES BY AUCTION.

R. W. W. SIMPSON invites the attention of
Ir_a_ Capitalists to the statements contained in the following
All vertisements, relating to the past, present, and prospective per-
manency of Rentals and the value of Land, confirming, as they do,
the predictions which he ventured to make last April, in a speech at
Norwich, in which he observed, that " although he had heen a
thorough-going Protectionist, ho was proud to say, that siding and
all other scales had fallen from his eyes ;—that it was his firm and
honest conviction, that Rents which had been set on fair and liberal
principles within the last seven years would b 3 permanent ; that the
year's purchase on such Rentsls had risen within the last six months,
and in all probability would continue to rise ; and that In adopting
free trade measures, Sir Robert Peel had proved himself to be one
of the Most talented, far-sighted, and fearlessly honest Ministers
that had ever lived in the tide of time." The present circumstanced
of the country, from a general scarcity of food throughout Europe,
fully justify the opinion here expressed of the eminent talents and
courage displayed by Sir Robert Peel. It is stated by the most com-
petent judges thitt if his wise measures of free trade had not been
carried out, the prices of Corn and produce would have risen to a
famine heigkt. Mr. Simpson has also been assured by the most re-
spectable salesmen in Smithfield Market, that if it had not been ler
the alteration of the Tariff, the price of Meat would long since have
risen to one shilling per pound, and even now the general impression
is, that before next harvest the prices of provisions will reach a
height beyond what would 'be conducive to the general prosperity of
the country. Mr. Simpson, in conclusion, cannot refrain from al-
luding to the opinion of that eminent man, the late S:r Charles We-
therell, on the subject. A high Tory and firm Protectionist, the
fears he entertained as to the probable results of the Repeal of the
Corn Laws induced him to determine on selling his landed property,
but his better judgment prevailed, and ho not only retained pos-
session of it, but was in the course of making further investments
when he met his lamentable fate. THE PROTECTIONISTS

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE!

Within TWO•MILES of the WELLINGBOROINI STATION, ex-
ceedingly VAUABLE ESTATE, consisting of 468 ACRES of very
excellent ARABLE, MEADOW, DAIRY, and GRAZING LAND,

lying within a RING FENCE.
MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received instructions
from the Trustees of the late John Christie, Esq., to SEjel,
by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on TUESDAY, November 110,
at Twelve o'clock,
An exceedingly valuable FREEHOLD and COM-HOLD ESTATE,
, 'parishes of Irchester :iiikWymingten, within
three miles of the capital market town of Wellingborough, and two
miles only from the railway station, which is within about half an
hour's transit by railway to the important town of Northampton.
It comprises a farmhouse and suitable agricultural buildings, toge-
ther with 304 acres of land, including 237 acres of arable, generally
of easy and deep staple, much the larger surface of which,
under proper cultivation, adapts itself to the turnip and barley course
of husbandry ; and the entire arable sure ace of the estate is grateful,
and in fair average seasons yields abundantly in corn, leguminous,
and green crops in all their varieties. The meadow end pasture
lands are to a considerable extent of good feeding and dairy quality ;
still they are, however, susceptible of improvements relating to
draining, &c., which, if carried out, would increase their present pro-
ductiveness ; the same observation will apply to certain portions of
the arable surface of the estate. As it would not be prudent for
tenants of uncertain tenure to incur this expenditure, the following
clause is inserted in the agreements :—" In addition to the rent, the
tenants are to pay six per cent. on the outlay of the landlord for
drainage, whihh drainage the landlord is to do according,to a specifica-
tion to be agreed upon between the tenants and Mr. W. W. Gardner,
the agent to the vendors.' The above farm is in the occupation of
Mr. James Mather, yearly tenant, who renewed his agreement at
Michaelmas, 1845, at a rent of 5821. 10s. per annum. Mr. Mather
and his family have been located on the estate for nearly a century.
Mr. Mather is not only wealthy, but of excellent character ; a first
class cultivator and manager generally; he stocks highly, and, at the
present period has a flock of 600 sheep, between the Leicester and
Down, superior in regard to frame and quality of wool. Also a
desirable Farm adjoining, with farm-house and agricultural build-
ings, and about 138 Acres of deep surfaced and exceedingly produc-
tive arable land, including a small field of pasture, in the occupation
of Miss Elizabeth Frost, a highly respectable yearly tenant, from
Michaelmas, 1845, at a rent of 2201. per annum. The family of Miss
Frost have been tenants on this estate upwards of 40 years. The
arable surface partakes very much of the same description and qua-
lity as Mr. Mather's occupation, with the exception that there is not
quite so large a proportion kindly to the turnip course ; still there are
very few fields on the entire estate where turnips are not grown and
folded off. Also about 24 acres of excellent arable land, called
Avenue Close, in the occupation of the Rev. Charles Partridge, vicar,
tenant from year to year, at a rent of 471. 10s. per annum, for the
purpose of being let to labourers as allotments. The copyhold por-
tion of the above property is in the parish of Irchester, and pays an
annual quit-rent of 31. 16s. 3d., and a fine of the like amount
on alienation or death, to the lord of the manor of Irchester
it is, therefore. equal in value to freehold. The apportioned
tithe rent-charge on the whole estate amounts to 61. 14s. 3d.
only, and which is paid by the tenants, therefore it may
be considered virtually tithe rent-charge, free. In respect
to the permanency of the rentals Mr. Simpson refers to
that best test, namely the character of the tenants, who have so re-
cently taken their occupation at the present rents, added to the de-
sire expressed by them to be continued on their farms in the event
of the estate being sold. Mr. Simpson having made a most minute
survey, field by field. and careful estimate of the property, fearlessly
asserts it is one of the most desirable estates for occupation and the
secure investment of capital he has seen in the course of his ex-
tensive experience.

cupied it nearly 20 years), tenant from year to year, at a rent of 208/
per annum. This Estate is freehold, with the exception of about 10
acres only, which are copyhold. A considerable revenue arises from
the letting of the stands, booths, Ike., which reduces the agricultural
surface rent.

Ind were attended with complete success ; having, as
learn, killed about forty Kafirs, and wounded many
more. • 0,1 our side the loss_ was five killed and three
rounded in my division ; the ascertained loss of the
enemy, of bodies seen, was thirty-seven killed, and I
think the number wounded must hare been considerable,
judging • from the extremely heavy fire kept up during
the day in the kloofs. I have no correct information of
Sir Andreas' loss, but I learn from his aide-de-camp that
it was much the same as our own. _

Having moved along the range of mountain until I
reached that point which overlooks Fort Cox, I at first
thought of proceeding to take -up that position Cor the
night, but, having lost sight of Sir Andreas, whose fire
seemed, as far as I could discover, to have ceased about
2 o'clock, P.M , I was apprehensive of losing my com-
munication with him by taking up that position, end I
therefore determined upon returning to my camp,—a
point from which I could more readily co-operate with
Sir Andreas had he returned to the head of the valley,
and at which, as I subsequently learned, he had formed
his bivouac for the night.
It is evident that the body a Kafirs have left that
valley, and I do not think that, taking the whole of the
small parties that are concealed in the numerous kloofs
therein, there are more than few hundreds, and to this
conclusion lam the more led from the fact, iat through-
out our course on that day (the 30th of July), not a
~ingla head of cattle was seen by either Sir Andreas'
division or mine.

Sir Andreas having yesterday sent his aide-de-camp to
inform me of his intention of moving from his bivouac
at the head of the valley, two miles distant from my
camp, and proceeding, in the course of the day, to
Burn's•hill, from which position he would move in the
night to examine the country about the ieurces of the
Keiskama, I instantly decided upon affording the co-
operation of the whole of my division by a movement
also on this point ; and, after my men had dined, I
started from my camp about 2 o'clock, P.N., yesterday,
arriving hero about half-past 6. I fully expected, from
the verbal communication made to me by Sir Andreas'
aide de-camp, that I should have found his division some-
where in this neighbourhood, but I have neither heard
nor seen anything of him.
The express containing his Excellency's dispatch
passed to the camp during the night, and at the very
moment of its arrival, on being forwarded to this place,
I had the troops formed for the purpose of moving to
Skonda-hill, which overlooks the Debe Flats, in order to
look out for his Excellency; but -on receiving that com-
munication I at once decided on sending back to order
the removal of my camp and supplies, which remain at
my former position, to this point, the troops having
marched here with only three days biscuit in their
havresacks, and without a single waggon, as on the pre-
vious move.

Mr. Stretch having kindly offered his services to con-
vey this dispatch, will be able to explain anything which
I may have omitted to mention.—l have, &c.

Quartermaster-General.

P.S.—Four o'clock P.M.- Sir A. Stockenstrom has just
arrived, having left his division in the Amatola valley,
within a few miles of this. He proposes returning im-
mediately to his camp at the Tyumie Hock, for the pur-
pose of getting a supply of provisions and ammunition,
and for making arrangements to move his camp to
where mine is At present, under the Amatola height, and
establishing his force somewhere about the Leney River,
between Burn's-hill and the Tabendodo. These arrange-
ments will take at least four or five days.
Sir Andreas requests that I will communicate to, his
Excellency the satisfaction that he has experienced dur-
ing the operations at the manner in which all under his
command performed their duty; and he would particu-
larise the spirited conduct of the Fingoes under Mr.
Crause as deserving of especial notice.

Amatola Camp, Aug..

Sir,—l have the honour to report my proceedings
since my late communication from Shiloh, where I
posted my left win., in such a posture as to check the
rambookies as well as Kafirs, and to be ready to join
me to the south of the great mountain range.
On the 21st ult. I proceeded to Elands Post, and ar-
ranged with Captain Sutton, to whose zealous co-opera-
tion I am much indebted, the necessary measures for the
advance of the Kat River Contingent into the field, and
for the protection of that part of our frontier. On the
22d I proceeded to the camp of my right wing, which I
had ordered to take post on the Chumie Ridge. Having
communicated with his Honour Colonel Hare, and Lieu-
tenant Stokes (deputed for that purpose by his Excel-
lency the Commander in Chief), I marched the right
wing to Block Drift on the 25tb, and, leaving the heavy
baggage and waggons under a strong guard at that post,
started thence at dusk on the 26th wish 700 men in ex-
pectation of attacking, at daybreak on the 27th, the
great force of the Kafirs which was reported to have
concentrated in the forests at the head of the Chutnie.
We proceeded throughout the night, but as soon us day
dawned became aware that the enemy
.had abandoned
this stronghold. I nevertheless canted the several re-
:esses to be scoured to the tops of the mountains. Some
shots were exchanged with straggling parties of Kafirs,
and a few of them were killed. I then deemed it im-
portant to push forward my camp and show a determina-
tion to keep possession of the country; my waggons
were, therefore, brought to the Chumie missionary sta-
tion during the night of the 28th, and, having on the
same day communicated in person with Colonel Hare at
his camp, I made my preparations for attacking the
Amatola mountains and fastnesses. _

I had directed my left wing, under Commandant Jou-
bert, to move from Shiloh, BCO strong, to join the Kat
River Contingent, 400 strong, at the foot of the Loo
heary (Gaika's kop), and fall on the Chumie forests from
the north, whilst 1 entered them from the south ; but a
thick fog and the mistake of the guide prevented that
zealous comms.nder from joining me before the 28th.
Soon after sunset on the 29th I left my ercampment (in
charge of Field Cornet Kruger with 200 men) 600
strong, and, taking up Joubert with his 1,200, ascended
the western facia of the Amatola range, the lesser summit
whereof we reached about midnight. Here I left a re-
serve of 500 strong in charge of our her s: s, and detached
to my right Assistant-Commandant Bo:ha with 200 of
the Kat River Legion to keep open my communication
with Colonel Hare, who was to make a simultaneous
movement against the lower part of the Amatola, as
agreed between us. An attack made on his Honour's
camp during the night, as perceived by us from the re-
peated vollies and flashes of firing, delayed his Honour's
march till morning, but not so as to diminish its efh-
ciency. Whilst the darkness continued we saw nu-
merous lights throughout the whole of the Amatola
kloofs and jungles, indicating a concentration of great
force. At daybreak my division rushed down the
eastern declivity with the utmost alacrity, in hope of
some decisive struggle ; the alarm signals of the scouts
were heard from every peak ; and bodies of men were
seen assembling on the several elevations rising above
the forests. My force was at once divided into se-
veral subdivisions—every kloof, precipice, and bush,
whore any party of the enemy was perceived, was
rushed at and attacked with spirit. The enemy saw
that their only chance was in flight, and accordingly,
after two or three attempts to concentrate in apparently
tenable positions, they were seen to fall back from ridge
to ridge, as they found us making our way through the
thickest forests and the steepest mountains. Nothing
deserving the name of a battle can be said to have taken
place, but the spirited rush of my men clearly struck
panic into their opponents, and where an attempt at a
stand was made, the determination of the former put a
speedy end to the struggle; 39 dead bodies of the Kafirs
were seen, and how many more fell in the jungles as
well as the number of wounded, it is impositle to esti-
.mate. The loss on our side is five killed, and four
severely wounded.
About three P.M. my several detachments were seen
descending the steep mountains much fatigued after the
repeated night marches and climbing and descending so
many precipitous elevations, but the Kafirs, except a few
stragglers in the distance, had disappeared, and, con-
sistently with my policy above stated, I resolved upon
not receding, and to keep possession of the Amatola. I
consequently encamped in this valley, and shall bring up
my heavy baggage to and over the Keiskama forthwith.
This will at once show the enemy that their strongholds
are and must be ours, and Kreli even must begin to
doubt whether the Kat or the Bashee is to be the colo-
nial boundary. On the moral effect of this idea I will
not comment

I have to thank every officer and man under my com-
mand for their spirit, zeal, and patience under excessive
fatigue whilst my command has lasted, but particularly
for the last several days. On no single occasion was any
hope given to the enemy by the least hesitation on the
part of the smallest detachments to rush upon the mwt
dangeroug jungles in the possession of the Kafirs, and
one instance of gallantry I cannot forbear mentioning
more particularly. On debouching from one of the
forests, I perceived a body of Fingoes, lei on by Lieu-
tenant Charles Crause, scaling a precipitous rocky bluff,
in possession of a body of Kafirs, who were defending
the position with great advantage and determination.
Seeing their danger, I rushed up the steep with the
Burghers, who surrounded me, but reached the con-
tested summit only in time to witness the complete suc-
cess of the above brave party, who, supported by Cap.
tain Joseph Read on the opposite side of the peak, had
carried the position, tho Kafirs leaving eight dead
bodies on the spot ; our side lost two dead and three
wounded.

The operations of Colonel Hare, I find, were success-
fully carried out on my right. I heard the heady firing
of his division throughout the day. His Honour, lam
glad to learn, from my aide-do-camp, whom I sent to his
camp yesterday, speaks in high terms of the conduct of
Assistant-Commandant Both+ and the detachment of
the Kat River Legion which I sent to act under his
orders, and I have to thank his Honour for his cor-
diality and readiness to afford me every assistance in his
power.
Yesterday and to-day were devoted to the more com-
plete scouring of the fastnesses bordering this valley,
down as far as Fort Cox, whence I have just returned,
and where I had an interview with Colonel Hare, and
stated to his Honour my intention of advancing further

PRICE SD.

eastward to attack the upper Keitkama and Buffalo as
soon as my provisions and ammunition come up from
Chumic.

A -Kafir prisoner just taken states that Sandilla, Mo-
conio, and Illtman, were all three with all their forces in
the forests of this valley when we entered it on the morn-
ing of the 30. h, and that the first and last vc,,re with the
division which opposed me, whilst Giacomo was in the
kloof where 13,:)tha was engaged.
As matters now stand, considering myself sufficiently
strong here, I have this morning detached a body of 100
men to reinforce the protecting Shiloh and Tarka line,
as the Kafirs retreating hence may attempt some sur-
prise in that quarter, under the auspices of Mapassa.—
I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient humble
servant,

P.S. I forwarded this to Colonel Hare on the 3d inst.,
for the purpose of being perused and forwarded to him,
but his honour did not think that he should have an
opportunity of communicating with his Excellency before
I should. Since then this division has been scouring the
country from the Amatola hither, but it is evident that
the enemy abandoned all his strongholds as soon as they
were attacked with vigour, for we have been upon the
spoor of vast numbers, flying in the direction of the Kei,
whilst the great forests are left tenantless ; but our
cavalry is in such a state that overtaking the flying Kafirs
is out of the question.

EXTRACT OF A DISPATCH FROM HIS HONOUR COL. HARP,
C.D., KM., ADDRESSED TO LIEUT.-COLONEL CLOETE;
DEPUTY-QUARTERMASTER GENERAL.
Fort White, Aug. 7.
Sir,—Agreeably to instructions in his Excellency's
niernorandinn of August 2, I marched my division on
Tuesday, the 4th instant, directing my march upon
the mountains in the elistence to my front from Fort
Cex, which Mr. Stretch informed me were the Gail--
liguilli Mountains, and upon the west side of which I
was ordered to act with my division (the second divi-
sion), and that of Sir Andreas acting on the northern,
easterzVand southern sides. The whole country, from my
position at Fort Cox to those mountains, is covered with
bush, and in my front extremely dense. Unfortunately
amongst all the guides and interpreters in my
camp, I could not find a single one who had ever
heard of the Guilliguilli mountains, although they knew
there was a stream of that name on the other side of the
mountains mentioned by me, or who could afford the
slightest information with respect to the roads, or whe-
ther they were practicable for the guns. I consequently,
the day previous to my march,. sent a strong reconnol
tering party, under Captain Wright (my aide-de-camp),
who appeared to have more knowledge of the country
than any other person near me. The result of Captain
Wright's reconnoissance was, that the road was not
practicable for guns. I therefore left them in position
at Fort Cox, taking with me a three-pounder, which was
brought, without difficulty, over the worst passes. On
his passage through the bush in search of a road, that
officer reported to me having seen several bodies of
Kafirs, some of which were on the trek with their
cattle and women, and directing their course to the
mountains alluded to. On his return they followed
and waylaid his party at the passes and drifts, wounding
two men, with a loss to themselves of eight killed (o!
whom the bodies were seen), and many wounded. Two
horses, and about a dozen head of cattle, wore captured
on this occasion. In consequence of this, I deemed it
right to acquaint Sir Andreas Stockenstrom, who had
not moved from the valley of the Amatola, re
commending his march in a parallel direction
with mine, in order to prevent their escape.
Sir Andreas, in reply, informed me that he could
completely meet my views, by crossing with his divi-
sion the range of mountains which bounds the valley of
the Amatola on the east. Although at too great a dis
tance to see his force, I could clearly discover his line
of movement, by the firing of huts, &c., in the, direction
in which he was proceeding. During my advance to the
base of the mountain, twelve or fourteen miles off, we
did not find a single Kalirman, but evident traces of
their being on the move forward were perceptible. Some
cattle and many goats w're taken during this day's
march, one Kafir havinrs been shot by a detached party
under Captain Eyneveld.
Having found a convenient place with respect to water,
I took up my bivouac for the night near the head of the
river Xaxa, under the mountain, from which Kafirs in
numbers were discovered in the bush above us; but it
being then dark, and the men greatly fatigued after their
day's work, it was too late to enter the very dense jungle
to attack them. The following morning every ridge and
kloof was scoured from the base to the summit of the
mountain without resistance of any kind, the men having
abandoned it, leaving their women and some cattle be-
hind; of the latter about 300 were captured, and about
400 goats. Having thus completely scoured the western
side, I proceeded round to the northern part of the
mountain, and continued my march to the sources of the
Keiskarna, where I bivouacked for the night, having
cleared the country on my way. Some women were
seen, Rho appeared quite at ease, and without a feeling
of danger remained quietly at their huts.
From these women,. as well as from a prisoner who
was taken in the hush, I learned that Sandilla, Macomo,
and Botman had been there, but hail fkd over the moun-
tain on the approach cf the troops, leaving orders fo,
their men to follow them. By the concurrent statements
of the women and prisoner, it would appear that the Ka-
firs had decided upon returning towards the colony, art.
this scenes to be confirmed by numerous spoors of con-
siderable bodies having been seen by my skirmishing
parties going in that direction.
This morning the div Lion has returned to Fort Cox,
and when this report is sent off to his Excellency, I in
tend making a search myself throughout this Flrt of th(
country fur a convenient and proper place to establish
my camp of supplies, should his Excellency continue of
the opinion that a point at this side would be preferable
to Fort Cox—that is, with reference to any contemplated
ulterior movements ; but as regards position f, r having
completely command of the valley of the Amatola, and
affording more ready succour to the colony if threatew d.
Fort Cox, in my opinion, has greatly the advantage.
hate no doubt, in my own mind, that the Kafirs have
formed the resolution of not meeting thelroops, and that
their plan is to harass us by their movements forwar,
and retrograde, this appearing more evident by the nu-
merous spoors seen returning between my division and
that of Sir Andreas, and the camp of his Excellency. 1
shall await his Excellency's further instructions, and
after the horses are refreshed, and some necessary ar-
rangements made with respect to my waggons and sup-
plies, I shall be ready to move in whatever direction the
Commander-in-Chief may decide.—l have, &c., _
J. HARE, Colonel.
P.S.—Captain Rynevell not having joined me last
night, I presume he has remained at his Excellency's
camp. .

Fort Beresford, Aug. 10

Sir,—Agreeably to his Excellency's orders I ascended
the Buffalo Mountain, opposite Pierie station, in three
columns, at an early hour on the sth inst. One of the
columns, under Field-Captain Melville, having fallen in
with a few Kafirs, immediately attacked and dispersed
them, killing three of them—a fourth, about to be made
prisoner, sprang over a precipice rather than submit tA,
mercy. The other two columns met with no opposition,
though some few Kafirs showed themselves as the leading
column was emerging from the woods at the summit of
the mountain. The cattle and goats belonging to these
having been captured, and the columns united, the whole
division proceeded to a height to the north-west of the
Buff ,do Poort, where Captain Melville, having taken a
strong patrol in the steep kloofs below, succeeded in
securing some horses, cattle, and goats, all of which fell
into his own hands or those of the main body, without
opposition.
The fillo wing morning, having observed Colonel
division, on the low grounds to our left, patrolling
towards my division, and burning the kraals of the
Kafirs in its progress, I considered detachments in that
direction unnecessary, and consequently threw the whole
of my native troops into the kloofs and dense woods to
my right and front. One of the parties, under Field-
Captain Lange, proceeded as far as Murray's krautz,*
which I subsequently understood had been carried that
morning by the troops belonging to the ather part of the
2d division. By the whole operation, a very wide extent
of the country was traversed; few Kafirs, however, were
seen, though in many places their fires were yet burning,
and the flesh of animals recently killed before them. Not
a shot was fired upon us, though two lots of cattle were
driven out of the bush, and one Kafir made prisoner.
On Friday, the 7th, presuming the kloofs to be clear
of Kafirs, and observing a heavy spoor of men and cattle
towards the Caboosia, I followed it up, examining the
kloof to my right, those on my left being under the
observation of Sir Andreas Stockenstrom's division, with
which I communicated in the course of the day.
Two of my patrols were successful, one being instru-
mental in the capture of eight horses and 120 head of
cattle, the other coming upon an encampment which
seemed to have been abandoned to the men and left to
the women, from whom some powder and ball were taken.
My march this day terminated at nine o'clock at
night. During the whole of it no opposition was
shown us.
The behaviour of the men was in every respect satis-
factory. The assistance I received from-Field-Captain
Melville, whose qualities as an active and intrepi.:i
officer are too well established to require comment, merit
my best acknowledgments; and I would beg also
to
notice favourably to his Excellency Captain Melvillo's
brother officer in Commandant Size's Levy—Field-
Captain Lange.—l have the honour, &c.

* Norn. MURRAY'S KRINTZ.—This remarkably
strong position was carried by a dismounted detachment
of the Cape Corps and a company of the Worcester
Burghers on the morning of the 6th inst. These being
the only infantry at the time with Colonel Somerset's
detachment of cavalry, which was moving along the foot
of the mountains, were ordered by his Excellency to
advance to the attack. As they proceeded to scale the
mountain, a few Kafirs only were seen on the scarped
ridge of the summit ; these retired as the assailants ap-
proached the foot of the scarp, without offering any
opposition, On the preceding evening this position, in
