ALDERTON, SUFFOLK, Eight Miles from the capital Market
Town and Port of Woodbridge.
VALUABLE ESTATE, comprising npwards of 850 Acres, Land-
',Tax Redeemed.
MR. W. W. SIMPSON is directed by the Pro-
prietor to offer for SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart, on
TUESDAY, September 22, at Twelve, in Two Lots, a most valuable
and highly-cultivated ESTATE, comprising 854 Acres of land, lying
in a ring fence, divided as follows :
Lot I. A superior Residence, with agricultural buildings, and 512
Acres, in the occupation of Mr. Thomas Roberts, on lease, for a
ttrm of eight years, from Michaelmas, 1843, at a rent of 4501. per
annum. This lot is entirely freehold.
Lot 2. Ad excellent Residence, with superior agricultural build-
ings, and 342 Acres, In the occupation of Mr. John Ablitt, at a rent
of 3501. per annum, also oft lease for a term of eight years from
Michaelmas, 1843. Part of this lot is freehold, and the remainder
copyhold. The estate consists (independent of the sheep-walks)
chiefly of fertile and easy tillaged arable land, adapted to the turnip
system of husbandry, and the marshes, amounting to about 120
acres, arc of great productiveness and excellent grazing quality. It
is situate in the healthy and pleasant villages of Alderton and
Ramsholt (a district celebrated for its sporting varieties), only eight
miles from the excellent market town and port of Woodbridge, and
fifteen from Ipswich. At Ramsholt there is a wharf where earn
can be shipped at all hours of the tide. The land-tax is redeemed,
the rates are very low, and the apportionment of rent charge mo-
derate. The tenants are of a first-class description in all respects,
and expressed great satisfaction and in terms of self-gratulation
that they are under leases. The Inference, therefore, to be drawn in
respect of the permanency of the present and prospective improve-
ment of the rental is left by Mr. Simpson for the public to decide.
Mr. Simpson is authorised to receive offers for the entire property by
Private Contract, up to within one week of the day of sale.
Particulars, with plans of the property will be shortly published,
and may then be obtained of John Wood, jun., Esq., solicitor,
Woodbridge ; of Henry Ward, Esq., 51, Lincoln's Inn-fields ; at
the White Horse, Ipswich; and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Buck-
lerabury.
The following observations comprise the substance of Mr. Simp-
son's predictions relative to the abolition of the corn-laws, which
were noticed in the newspapers In connexion with the sale of large
estates in Suffolk, in April last, and he now has the satisfaction to
observe that they are already to a great extent realised. Mr. Simp-
son acknowledged that till within the last year he had been a tho-
rough-going Protectionist. After a three years' test of Sir Robert
Peel's measures, added to his extensive experience up to the pre-
sent period in the letting and sale of landed property, he was now
free and proud to confess that sliding and other scales had
fallen from his eyes, the result of which was, that he was now a
thorough-going anti-Protectionist, from an honest and firm convic-
tion that rents which had been set on fair and liberal principles
(within the last seven years) would be permanent; and he fearlessly
stated that the years' purchase on such rentals had risen within the
last six months, and in all probability would continua to rise on
the settlement of the great question in respect to free trade in corn,
&c. For the truthfulness of these statements, Mr. Simpson re-
ferred to recent lettings and sales which have been published not
only by himself, but by other auctioneers and land-agents. The
consumption and demand of an increasing population (in the
ratio of about 1,000 per day), the capital, skill, industry,
and enterprise of Englishmen, in addition to the easy and
inexpensive transit of their produce to the first markets in Europe,
would form such a counterpoise as would enable us to compete sue-
cessfully with the miserably uncultivated lands and minds of exotic
growth. Not only the increase of population, but also the accumu-
lation of wealth, is going on in this country, arising from the employ
ment of capital in the various branches of agriculture, trade, and
commerce, the clear profits of which, it is inferred, amount to
50,000,0001. annually ; this, and the high value of the funds, must in-
duce remunerating prices in corn and produce, and stimulate a desire
to invest in land, the only,property, indeed, which can be considered
essentially permanent under adverse circumstances produced by po-
litical events. Instead, therefore, of the motto, " agitate, agitate,.
let us substitute that of " cultivate, cultivate," and let landlords assist
improving tenants by making advances (in the nature of improve-
ments in drainage, Sze.), of the additional capital which may be re-
quired, charging for the same at the rate of five per cent. on that
expenditure, which shall be judiciously laid out. Hence the tenant-
farmer will reap an additional benefit of at least fifteen per cent.,
and a permanent Improvement of the value of the farm (quasi land-
lord) will supervene. It is stated by those who ought to be consi-
dered the most competent judges, that if this wise measure of free
trade had not been carried out, the price of corn and produce would
have risen to such an extent as to ra'uce the greater portion of the
population of Ireland to a state bordering on starvation ; and in
England a similar result would have occurred amongst the manu-
facturing and labouring poor. Mr. Simpson has also been assured
by most respectable salesmen in Smithfield market, that if it had
not been for the alteration of the tariff, beef and mutton would long
since have risen to ls. per lb. ; and even now the conclusion arrived
at is, that instead of the prices of corn and meat being too low,
between this and next harvest they will obtain a height beyond that
which would be conducive to the general prosperity of the country 4
