LOWESTOFT, SUFFOLK.—Brewery, Inns, Public and Beer_
Houses.
R W. W. W SIMPSON respectfully announces
that the above Brewery, which was advertised to be SOLD
by AUCTION, is withdrawn, and he has received directions to
LET the same on LEASE. It comprises the Brewery, Sec., with
Spirit Trade attached, situate in the High-street, Lowestoft, car-
ried on successfully for many years by Messrs. G. and NV. Everitt ;
and offers an eligible opportunity for entering into the business, as
skilfulness and industry only would be required in the management
to realise an extension of the free and private trade, which is at
present considerable. The home premises cemprise an excellent
residence, brewhouse, with tun-rooms, and stores, yard, and stab-
ling. The axed plant consists of a 15-quarter tun, two brewing
coppers, one of 38 and the other of 18 barrels, and all other requi-
site plant in proportion. Also, Fourteen Inns, Public and Beer
Houses, six of which are in Lewestoft, and those in the country
are generally at convenient distancee hops the brewery; a malt-
house with 15-quarter skcp, two working floors, &c., mister's
cottage and yard.

Applications may be made to Mr. William Everitt, the proprie-
tor, who will now, on application, show the premises, and give all
information required; to Henry Ling, Esq., Solicitor, St. Giles's,
Norwich ; and to Mr. W. W. Simpson, Estate, Brewery, and
Distillery Agent, &c., Bucklersbury.

ary support, beg to state that they decline receiving any subscriptions,

LONDON AND YORK RAILWAY
The Committee of Shareholders on the London and York
Railway view with satisfaction the advertisement in this nioming'
papers from the London and York Directors, and signed by the Se-
cretary, J. R. Mowan, announcing that their attention is
being
directed " to the practicability of treating with any rivals upon
terms advantageous to the London and York Shareholders."
The Committee feel that the steps they are taking will reduce
from theory to practice the wish of the Directors, and facilitate in
the most effectual manner the attainment of the object which they
now for the first time announce their intention to accomplish, and
the Committee have much satisfaction in apprising the Share_
holders that the answers they have already received establish be-
yond a doubt that the Proprietors will adopt the views which led
to the formation of this Committee, and which they consider as the
only means of escape from liabilities and engagements of a most
ruinous nature.

L I TE RA T URE.
CREATION; A VISION OF THE SOUL.
As a suggestive production, this book deserves a casual
perusal. Nevertheless it might almost be reprobated for
the extreme audacity of its conception ; pretending (as
it does) to be an amplification of the most sublime
narrative ever presented to the human race. " Canebal
de creationi mundi, et origine humani generis. 1" exclaimed
the Venerable Bede, and here the " Christian Platonist"
has dared to echo his announcement, and repeat his en-
deavour. That, however, which has been sanctified
the divine records of Genesis, and which has likewist
tasked the inspired imagination of our incomparable
Milton, was a theme scarcely compatible with the size.
arrangement, or impoverished language of the present
i..a-1181./11.1 cbannvao ois, ...
failure in this respect was a necessary consequence of
the undertidng. We cannot, of course, blame the author
of this work for allowing his fancy the most unbridleo
scope in meditating upon the creation of the universe ;
what we blame him for is, the reduction of a series of
very crude and rambling ideas to print. Still, undoubt-
edly, as a suggestive essay, the present can hardly be
read without some little profit ; the mind of the reader
is exalted by the consummate grandeur of the subject
itself ; it glides back to a remote antiquity, when
chaos was being merged into order by the will of Omni-
potence, and looks on awe-stricken and enthralled at the
prodigious workings of the Divinity. If for one other
consequence alone this " Vision of the Soul "
is, to a certain extent, meritorious, it serves again and
again to demonstrate the perfection of the opening de-
scriptions contained in " The Book of books." So
solemn, so entire, so earnest, so stupendous, are the brief
verses in the commencement of Genesis, as contrasted
with any human endeavour to delineate that epoch of
eternity when " the Spirit of God moved upon the face
of the waters ;" whether that contrast be with
the word-glories of Milton, or the choral
majesty of Haydn, or the singular bathos of
our Christian platonist. Holy writ has ever
commanded the admiration of infidelity itself ; its
majestic utterance moved even the heart of sceptism.
Byron, amidst the vortex of his most libertine excesses,
hung over its pages with a reverential awe ; Shelley,
in the haughtiest moments of his disbelief, drank
deeply from its mysterious wisdom. It is stamped with
the signet of its celestial origin even in its composition,
And, as we are willing to conjecture that it is from his
love for the Great Book the present publication has been
called into existence, we may concede a negative ap-
proval of the notion, and overlook the non-success in
the execution of the work before us. There are, how-
ever, some discrepancies and incongruities scattered over
its pages, which require an especial deprecation. Thus,
for example, when the writer is attempting to depict
the creation of birds in a peaceful and sinless
Paradise, he describes the blood-thirsty chase
of a vulture after a dove, and subsequently a similar pur-
suit of a fox by hounds and horses. These, besides be.
ing anachronisms, are very mean adjuncts to a picture
like that of a new-born world. Again, he represents the
Deity as promising a Messiah and Redeemer to Adam and
his race before the fall of our first parents ; a circum-
stance which, if conscientiously maintained, would be
nothing less than broaching a doctrine most incon-
gruous to Christianity, namely, the doctrine of predes-
tination. A little more caution should at the least have
been observed by the author before he presumed on the
publication of such a work, even granting that the sub-
ject itself was a fitting one for a prose
disquisition. One
other fault there is—the language is at times most into-
lerably turgid. An epic has yet to be written recon-
ciling the expositions of geology with those of revealed
religion

RAMBLES IN NORMANDY. By James Hail by,
M.D.
This is a very delightful book. Normd is one of
the most picturesque of the French provianncey s, and Dr.
Hairby is a most amusing travelling companion. It ap-
pears that his object in wandering through Normandy
was to discover some pleasant and cheap place of resi-
dence, where he could secure good society for himself
and the means of education for his children—and to all
who are engaged in a similar search we recommend Dr.
Hairby's book as a vade mecum—they will find the
respective claims of Granville, and Avranches, and Han•
fleur, and Havre, and Caen, and fifty other places, amply
discussed, and will be enabled, in many instances, at once
to fix on the locality most likely to suit their purpose.
His descriptions of scenery and places are graphic, and
his sketches of society kindly-hearted, and at the same
time amusing. Some of his hints to Englishmen as to
French etiquette are valuable: for instance, attention to
the following may prevent the commission of many a
Utise in an unconscious stranger:—
" TLe Frenchman (says Dr. Hairby) notices what he con-
siders a great radencss in us, of which many Englishmen, on
their first arrival in France, are unconscious of. The instance
to which I allude is this: one man, accompanied by many
others, meets a lady whom he knows, walking in the midst
of a party, amongst whom are gentlemen with whom he has
no acquaintance, he bows to the lady, every gentleman ont hisls
side raises his hat, and every gentleman in her suite riethull
e.
the salute. Nor is this etiquette limited tointercourse w 8 the
fair sex. The same courtesy is observed betweenuf.etiou groups
men; a bow to one is the signal for a general,

The following hints, too, will be found very valuable to
persons proposing to settle in Normandy:—

though there is one point of morality to which I shall ad-

exhibited, even by persons, who,to enter;
from their station. in life,
might be supposed to consider their word binding and con-
clusive in their transactions.
I shall forbear from giving individual instances to this
effect, but I may mention a case which is, probably, not very
rare—that of a proprietor, who undertakes to let a house for
a certain rent, assures the proposing tenant, that he shall
have it on a certain day; in the meantime, he is offered a
higher rent by another person, and he tells the first bidder,
