SALES BY AUCTION.

ITR. W. W. SIMPSON invites the attention of
.I.TJL. Capitalists to the statements contained in the following
Advertisements, 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 been a
thorough-going Protectionist, he was proud to say, that sliding 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 be permanent ; that the
year's purchase on such Rentals 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 circumstances
of the country, from a general scarcity of food throughout Europe,
fully justify the opinion here expressed of the eminent talents mad
courage displayed by Sir Robert Peel. (t is stated by the most com-
petent judges that if his wise measures of free trade had not been
carried out, the prices of Corn and produce would have risen to a
famine height. Mr. Simpson has also been assured by the most re-
spectable salesmen in Smithfield Market, that if it had not been or
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 Sir 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 he not only retained pos-
session of it, but was in the comae of making further investments
when he met his lamentable fate. THE PROTECTIONISTS—
WHERE ARE THEY? WHERE ARE NOW YOUR PROPHETS

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE.

Within TWO MILES of the WELLINGUOROUII STATION, ex-
ceedingly VAITABLE 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 SEkkl.
by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on TUESDAY, November if,
at Twelve o'clock,
An exceedingly valuable FREEHOLD and COPYIIOLD ESTATE,
eligibly situate in the parishes of Irchester. and Wymington, 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 tillage 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 surface 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, Sm., 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, which Irainage 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 Lis 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. I4s. 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.
The property may be viewed, and particulars (with plans annexed)
may now-be obtained of Mr. William Henry Cotterill, solicitor, 32,
Throgmorton-street, City ; of George Burnham, Esq., solicitor,
Wellingborough ; of Mr. W. W. Gardner, Biggleswade; 'and of Mr.
W. W. Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury, London.

corn and green crops in all their varieties ; the remaining 16 acre s
are meadow land of superior mowing and feeding qualities, being
bounded by the River Ouze. The property is copy hold of the manor
of Hartford, but paying only a fine of I/. 3s. 9d. on admittance,

occupation of Dennis Herhert, Esq., of Huntingdon, an eminent
brewer, who holds under a lease for a term of ten years, from Octo-

prises a convenient farm-house and appropriate agricultural
buildings (on which a considerable outlay has recently been

ductive old pasture and meadow, and the remainder deep-stapled
wheat, barley, and bean lawl. It is in the occupation of Messrs.
Thomas and Robert Whitehead, who hold under a lease for a term of
seven years from the 10th of October, 1813, at a rent of 1551. per
annum.

4ZFENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it
can be incontestibly proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy-
the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap-
plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing
the roots till the latest period of life. Price 3s. Gd., Gs., and 10s.

new her acquaintance with her "dear Johnny," and all
ends happily. The comedy is admirably written ; the
dialogue is always smart, and not unfrequently witty,
and there is a vast deal of character about the play,
The characters, in fact, are all individualities, living,
breathing, walking, talking people—not mere generali-
ties. It was capitally acted, and put upon the stage in
the best possible style. It was announced for repetition
amidst the loud applause of a crowded house, and we con-
gratulate Mr. Webster in having added one more to the
already numerous managerial triumphs which he has
achieved, and an excellent comedy to the Hay market
repertoire.

AMERICAN NEWS.

ARRIVAL OF EHE HIBERNIA.

EIGIIT DAYS LATER FROM THE UNITED

STATES.

CAPTURE OF MONTEREY AFTER HARD
FIGHTING.
LIVE RPOOL, THURSDAY.
The Royal Mail steam-ship Hibernia, Captain
Ryrie, arrived here this morning at a quarter to six
o'clock with the usual mails and fifty-five passengers.
By her we have received our usual files of papers to
the day of sailing, the 16th instant, she having made
the trip, including her calling and stay at Halifax, in
twelve days and a half. She brings very important
intelligence. The American arms have.been success-
ful against the Mexicans at Monterey, which city,
after a gallant defence, was compelled to capitulate
on the 24th of September.
The following are extracts from the papers :
Since the sailing of the last steamer, we have received
intelligence of a very startling nature from the, army.
After a' tedious march,- General Taylor, and the 'forces
under his command came in sight of Monterey on the
18th of September. The men were much wearied, and
began to give out, their food having been spoiled by
severe rains. The advance were immediately saluted
with a heavy cannonade, the sound of which acted like a
charm on the jaded men. All became life and motion,
and severe fighting followed. On the 20th, a successful
attack was made by General Worth on the Mexican
forts, routing the artillery and capturing their ordnance.
On the 22d, the well-fortified palace of the Bishop of
Monterey was attacked, and after a severe struggle was
captured. On the 23d, the whole Mexican force, about
double the American, was driven into the plaza, where,
unable to runaway, the Mexican soldiery occupied the
houses which surrounded the square, keeping up an in-
cessant fire from the windows. The conflict was tre-
mendous, lasting from early morning till late night. The
24th brought a cessation of hostilities, by the capitula-
tion of General Ampudia. The American loss is 500 in
killed and wounded.

below the town, with one exception, were abandoned
by the enemy, and this morning occupied by our troops
To-day the 3d Infantry, with the field artillery of the Ist

the 2d regiment of Texas Riflemen, (dismounted), have
been warmly engaged with the enemy in the town, and
have driven him with considerable loss to the plaza and
its vicinity, which is yet strongly occupied. A portion
of the 2d division has also advanced into the town on the
right, and holds a position there. The enemy still main-
tains herself in the plaza and citadel, and seems deter-
mined to make a stubborn resistance.
I am particularly gratified to report that our successes
of yesterday and to-day, though disastrous to the enemy
harckbesa.nahiered withoutzugerial Joss.
I cannot speak in too high terms of the'gallantry and
perseverance of our troops throughout the arduous ope-

Head-quarters, Army of Occupation, Camp before
Monterey, Sept. 25, 1846.
Sir,—At noon on the 23d inst., while our troops were
closely engaged in the lower part of the city, as reported
in my last dispatch, I received by a flag a communication
from the Governor of the state of New Leon, which is
herewith enclosed (No. 1). To this communication I
deemed it my duty to return an answer, declining to
allow the inhabitants to leave the city. By eleven
o'clock, P.M., the 2d division, which had entered the
town from the direction of the Bishop's Palace, had
advanced within one square of the principal plaza, and
occupied the city up to that point. The mortar had, in
the meantime, been placed in battery in the cemetery,
within good range of the town, and was served through-
out the night with good effect.
Early in the morning of the 24th, I received a flag
from the town, bearing a communication from General
Ampudia, which I enclose (No. 2), and to which I re-
turned the answer (No. 3). I also arranged with the
bearer of the flag a cessation of fire until 12 o'clock,
which hour I appointed to receive the final answer
of General Ampudia at General Worth's head-quar-
ters. Before the appointed time, however, General Am-
pudia had signified to General Worth his desire for a
personal interview with me, for the purpose of making
some definitive arrangement. An interview was accord-
ingly appointed for one o'clock, and resulted in the
naming of a commission to draw up articles of agree-
ment regulating the withdrawal of the Mexican forces,
and a temporary cessation of hostilities. The commis-
sioners named by the Mexican General-in-Chief were
Generals Ortega and Requena, and Don Manuel M. Llano,
Governor of New Leon.

Those named on the American side were General
Worth, General Henderson, Governor of Texas, and
Colonel Davis, Mississippi volunteers. The commission
finally settled upon the articles, of which I enclose a
copy (No. 4), the duplicates of which, in Spanish and
English, have been duly signed. Agreeably to the pro-
vision of the 4th article, our troops have this morning
occupied the citadel.
It will be seen that the terms granted the Mexican
garrison are less rigorous than those first imposed. The
gallant defence of the town, and the fact of a recent
_ _

change of Government in Mexico, believed to be favour-
able to the interests of peace, induced me to concur with
commission in these terms, which will, I trust, receive
the approval of the Government. The latter considera-
.

---
,ion also prompted the convention for a temporary cessa-
tion of hostilities. Though scarcely warranted by my
instructions, yet the change of affairs since those instruc-

tions were hilted seemed to warrant this course. I beg
to be advised, as early as practicable, whether I have
met the views of the Government in these particulars.
I regret to report that Captain Williams, topogra-
phical engineers, and Lieutenant Terrant, Ist infantry,
have died of the wounds received in the engagement of
the 21st. Captain Gatlin. 7th infantry, was wounded
(not badly) on the 23d.—1 am, sir, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant.

Monterey, Sept. " --, 8 o'clock, A.M.
As you are resolved to occupy the place by force of
arms, and the Mexican General-in-chief resolved to de-
fend it at every cost, as his honour and duty require
him to do, thousands of victims, who, from indigence
and want of means, find themselves now in the theatre
of war, and who would be uselessly sacrificed, claim the
rights which in all times and all countries humanity
extends. As Governor of the State, and a legitimate
representative of the people, I state that case to you, and
hope from your civilisation and refinement, that what-
ever may be the event of the contest, you will issue
orders that families shall be respected, or will grant a
reasonable time for them to leave the capital.
I have the honour to salute you General-in-Chief of
the Army of Occupation of the United States, and to
assure you of my highest consideration.
God and liberty.

THE REWARDS OF FRANCE.
(From Punch.)
Parade thy chain, high-hearted Spain, that all the world
may see
The Castle and the Lion crouched beneath the Fleur-de -
Lys !
Bresson, within the Castle, to each iacquey dollars thrcwa,
And Christina leads the Lion by a cordon through big
nose.

General-in-Chief of the Army of Occupation of the

Senor General—Having made the ilefe'nce of which I
believe this city susceptible, I have fulfilled, my duty,
and have satisfied that military honour which, in a cer-
tain manner, is common to all armies of the civilised
world.

To prosecute the defence, therefore, would only re-
sult in distress to the population, who have already suf-
fered enough from the misfortunes consequent on war ;
and taking it for granted that the American Govern-
merit has manifested a disposition to negotiate, I pro-
pose to you to evacuate the city and its fort, taking with
me the personette and materiette which have remained,
and under the assurance that no harm shall ensue to the
inhabitants who have taken a part in the defence.
Be pleased to accept the assurance of my must distin-
guished consideration.

Seven o'clock, ♦.M.
Sir,—Your communication, bearing date at nine
o'clock, P.M., on the 23d inst., has just been received by
the hands of Colonel Moreno.

Nor sword nor lance wields sly old France, gold righ
and left he tosses,
And with a match lets off a batch of ribbons, stars, sea
crosses ;
For his Majesty has changed the plan that used to be
in vogue,—
The rogue once hung o' the cross, but now the cross
hangs on the rogue.
-" Come, Conde, try ; come, Buque, buy ; here is a title
for disgrace,
" A star to blaze upon his breast that should blush to
show his face ;
" Here's the cross of Honour's Legion for dishonour's
foulest stain,
" And the Golden Fleece for him that aids to filch the
wealth of Spain.
" Come,—Mon,—Pidal, my Ministers, ye've been a
servile crew,
" Here's a cross, big knave, and bigger knave, here's a
bigger cross for you !
" But thou, my own Heraldo, there be Dupes, Condea,
higher,
" But take thou the biggest cross of all that art the
biggest liar."
So spake old France, as grinning he distributed his graces
To the gentlemen with hollow hearts, forked tongues,
and brazen faces.
There were Ministers and writers who had vied which
could lie louder,
And Field-Marshals that gun-cotton never smelt, much
less gunpowder.
But round about the Palace, as those honours were
bestowing,
IA shadowy mail, with woe and wail, were Spain's o/t1
heroes going ;
Buy Diaz shook his ghostly fist—the grim old Cam-
peador—
Gonzalez's hand grasped airy brand, Del Carpio's spirit
swore.
" The foul fiend sieze, both necks and knees, these
recreants to Spain
" My old bones ne'er in Burgos will rest at peace again—
" Tho' dead and dry, when France crows high, and Spain

is in the dust,
" Confound them if they don't get up and walk off is
disgust !
" I was a gladsome stripling when I slew the Counttozan;
" When I wedded fair Ximena I was a merry man ;
" When on five necks of Moorish kings I set my mailed
h eel,
" I felt what, in such cases, a gentleman must feel.

" But of all the thrashings e'er I gave, and they've not
been a few,
" As you know, Fernan Gonzalez, and so, Carpio, do you;
" No task would so delight me, killing kings nor wedding

In answer to your proposition to evacuate the city and
fort with all the personal and material of war, I have is
state that my duty compels me to decline acceding to it.
A complete surrender of the town and garrison, the
latter as prisoners of war, is now demanded. But such
surrender will be upon terms, and the gallant defence of
the plsee,-.creditable alike to the Mexican troops and
nation, will prompt me to make those terms as liberal as
possible. The garrison will be allowed, at your option,
after laying down its arms, to retire to the interior, on
condition of not serving again during the war, or until
regularly exchanged. I need hardly say that the rights
of non-combatants will be respected.
An answer to this communication is requested by
twelve o'clock. If you assent to an accommodation, an
officer will be dispatched at once, under instructions to
arrange the conditions.

wives,
" As to thrash these rogues within, at most, an inch of
their low lives !"
So spake the Cid, Gonzalez chid, Bernardo shook his lance,
That once, at Roncesvallez, stayed the onward stride of
France,
And sadly thought those noble ghosts of the Spanish
days of old,
Ere knightly faith was grown a lie, and good steel
changed for gold.

FINE WRITING ONFOUL WEATHER.—The following
sample of fine writing on a very common-place subject is
taken from the Bahina.sloe Star of Thursday We
have had a constant succession of gales and torrents of
rain during the past week. On Wednesday, riarticu-
larly, the weather vas terrific—one continued deluge
poured the live-long day, accompanied by a perfect hur-
ricane, which uprooted several of the largest trees, and
committed other ravages in the country. Even while
we write, the' Stern Eagle of the far Nor-west' is hever-
ing about our town and neighbourhood—swooping now
here now there, in his headlong flight, and mingling his
wild storm-song as he soars along with the wilder music
of his rushing pinions. The callow meadows present
one •broad sheet- of white-foamed -waters—the rivers
scorning the narrow bounds of their accustomed chan-
nels are running riot over the flooded fields—and, were
it not for a green hillock here and there, one might
almost fancy that another fairy well' had overflowed, to
work a second miracle like the far •famed one of Blue
Lough Neagh.'"
HOTEL AND TAVERN-BEEPERS' PROVIDENT IN-
STITUTION.—The annual dinner of this benevolent as-
sociation, founded for the relief of aged and necessit pus
members, was held on Tuesday at the Freemasons'
Tavern, the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the chair.
About 120 members and friends of the institution slat
down—among whom were Alderman Hooper, Mr. e:
Bleaden, Mr. J. Gresham, of Dublin, and most of the
leading hotel and tavern-keepers of the metropolis. The
occasion was one of peculiar interest to the society, the
Lord lilayor having consented to preside for the second
time during his mayoralty, on the understanding the.
extra efforts would be used to raise the amount required
to complete the sum of 5,000/, so as to enable the
society to commence operations at once, by giving tempo-
rary assistance to deserving and necessitous members and
others. The Lord Mayor had undertaken to raise 501.
among his friends towards making up the requisite sum, but
his Lordship's list on being read by the honorary secre-
tary (Mr. Tapster) was found to amount to 1631. The
health of the Lord Mayor was proposed by Mr. Alder-
man Hooper, who intimated that he understood it was
his Lordship's intention to signalise the close of his year
of office by a series of the same splendid entertainments
that have characterised his mayoralty, an announcement
`which was. received with rapturous cheering. Lists of
subscriptions were delivered in from Messrs. Lovegrove,
Bacon, Bleaden, Tapster, &c., and at an advanced hour
in the evening it was announced, amid great applause,
that the sum of 5,000/. had been completed. Alderman
• .
Hooper having complied with the request to preside at
the next anniversary, the Lord Mayor left the chair,
stating that a general meeting would shortly be held to
carry the beneVoleut objects of the society into effect.
The dinner and wines fully upheld the high character of
Mr. Bacon's establishment. Mr. Harker officiated as
toast-master with great success, and the musical ar-
rangements-left little to be desired.

DECORATIVE ART SOCIETY.—The first meeting for
the present session was held, Wednesday evening, ut the
rooms of the Society, in Great Marlborough-street, when
the chair was taken by Mr. Fildes, one of the vice-
presidents. The chairman opened the fourth session by
congratulating the members on the continued progressive
state of the society, and particularly on the formation of
a library containing works on decorative art in its various
departments which were not to be met with at other
institutions. Mr. Crabb read a paper on the application
of colour to textile rnanufacture:t, which was most amply
illustrated by many specimens of the m,,st esteemed
English and foreign manufacture. It was, he stated, a
most singular circumstance that the Schools of Design
in this country, supported as they were with a most
liberal hand by Government, met with no suliP9l:4t fromo
manufacturers, and that, from the elevated

Terms of Capitulation of the City of Monterey, the
capital of Nuevo Leon, agreed upon by the under.
signed Commissioners, to wit : General Worth, of the
United States army; General Henderson, of Texan
volunteer; and Colonel Davis, of the Mi&sissippi

Mr. P. M. STEWART, M.P.—We are sorry to
understand that this gentleman, who had been announced
as to some extent convalescent, is at present in a very
precarious state.—Scotsman.
ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITIITION.--The profes-
sors of this admirable establishment are at present en-
gaged in delivering lectures upon topics of public interest
and notoriety. Doctor Bachhoffner every day demon-
strates most clearly the various electric telegraphs em-
ployed upon our railways, both in England and Scotlafid,
rendering that apparatus and its wonderful effects easily
-intelligible to the most simple understanding ; while, in
the chemical department, Dr. Ryan is lecturing upon
the physical and chemical properties of the atmosphere,
in reference, first to atmospheric locomotion, and
secondly in relation to respiration and combustion.
Great anxiety has been expressed for this gentleman 'to
lecture on the newly-discovered explosive cotton, but
we understand that he refuses to do so without the con-
sent of the patentee, as without such consent he, as well
as other scientific gentlemen, imagine that publicity by
lecturing would be premature, if not unfair.

Ampudia, Commanding-in-Chief the army of the

Art. 1. As the legitimate result of the operations
before this place, and the.present position of the con-

forces, now at Monterey.
Art. 2. That the Mexican forces be allowed to retain
