ALDERTON, SUFFOLK, Eight Miles from the capital Market

Town and Port of Woodbridge.
VALUABLE ESTATE, comprising upwards of 850 Acres, Land-

Mix Redeemed.
R W. W. SIMPSON is directed by the Pro-
w a
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 1. A superior Residence, with agricultural buildings, and 512
Acres, in the occupation of Mr. Thomas Roberts, on lease, for a
term of eight years, from Michaelmas, 1843, at a rent-of 4501. per
annum. This lot is entirely freehold.

Lot 2. An excellent ReS'idence, with superior agricultural build-

ings, and 342 Acres, in the occupation of Mr. John Ablitt, at a rent
of 3501. per annum, also on 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, are of great productiveness and excellent grazing quality. It
is situate in the healthy and pleasant villages of Aldcrton and
Itamholt (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 ;hero 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 he 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-
lersbury.

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. Dir. situp_
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 leaded property, ho 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 the
last six mouths, 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 suc-
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;000/. annually ; this, and thd 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, &c.), 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 reeuce 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 Is. 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.'

IRE LAND.

MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received instruc-
tions from the Proprietor to OFFER to the public, on most
encouraging terms, the valuable GLASS WORKS (held on lease for
upwards of 200 year,. at an annual rent of only 801.), situate on the
South-terrace, Cork, within a few yards of one of the principal
quays of the city.
The premises consist of spacious storerooms, handsome show-
rooms, cutting shop, &c., on which, with the machinery, a large
sum has been expended ; they arc constructed on the most approved
principles, are in the most thorough repair, and perfect working
order. They are admirably adapted for all the purposes of business,
and the 'entire trade in glass of the counties of Cork, Kerry, Clare,
and Limerick, as well as a large export trade (for which this concer
possesses peculiar advantage), could be readily secured.
Particulars may be had of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Duel'
