SMITH and SON will
SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, near the Bank of
England, in JULY (unless an acceptable offer shall be previously
made),
An important LEASEHOLD ESTATE, offering the highest in-
ducement to parties seeking to increase their income by an eligible
Investment of capital in a property producing an unusually ample
return. It consists of the impropriate Rectory of Wawne, in the
County of York, held by a lease from the Chancellor of York for
three young lives, the youngest of which is that of the Princess
Royal. The rectory comprises the glebe farm, farmhouse, and
lands, consisting of.a very superior dwelling-house, recently, built,
with convenient farm buildings, and 305 acres of good arable, mea-
dow, and pasture land, all in a ring fence, now let at 450/. per
annum, together with the rectorial rent charge in lieu of ,tithes,
which have been commuted at the annual rent of 8821., of which
721. is apportioned on tho glebe. The whole rent-charge, except
that charge on the glebe, is payable by a single proprietor, Joseph
Smyth Wyndham, Esq.; and the net annual income of the estate,
after deducting all the outgoings, amounts to about 1,1001. Wawne
is situated in the East Riding of the county of York, four miles
from Beverley and six from Hull. The roads are good, and there is
a navigable river communicating with both those towns. Insu-
rances for 2,0001. each have been effected upon each of the three
subsisting lives, and these may be made the subject of arrangement
between the vendors and the purchaser. It is probable that a pur-
chaser may be able by arrangement with the lessor to obtain a sub-
stitution of lives of his own nomination. It would be needless to

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
Copy of a letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Monk liar,

York,
" To Mr. Thomas Prout,

" 14th June, 1847.

" Sils,—Having suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from
repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best
medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to
try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. When I commenced
taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were
very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense
agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in
the morning comparatively free from pain; and before I had finished
the box, I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely
removed the gout, but have also very much improved my general
health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who
have suffered much from gout and rheumatism • and they all speak
highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think
my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your
wonderful medicine, ou are at perfect liberty to publish it.
" I am, Sir, yours respectfully.
" J. J. WILSON."

The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.
They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and
invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other
vital part.
Sold by Thomas trout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-

THE NoRTHERN Mete.s.—fl considerable inconve-
nience has been for some time, felt by the merchants of
Manchester and Liverpool, from the present postal
arrangements for the transmission of letters from these
great commercial centres to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
At present the first mail for the north leaves Manches-
ter at 4 A.M , arriving at Glasgow and Edinburgh at
2 Pee., while the box for the dispatch of the second mail
closes at 2 40 P.M., and the letters arrive at Glasgow
and Edinburgh at 2 A.M. on the following day. The
letters intended to be dispatched by the first mail con-
sequently lie at the Post-office here for six or eight hours
before their departure, while those conveyed by the
second mail undergo a similarly useless detention in the
post-offices at Glasgow and Edinburgh. Letters for the
second mail could be posted until 3 P.M. previously to
the opening of the Caledonian Railway, so that Man-
chester, as tar at least as this mail goes, has actually
been a sufferer by the increased facilities afforded by rail-
ways. The inconveniences of the present Post-office
arrangements appear to arise from the dispatch of the
northern mails from Manchester and Liverpool beiag
made to depend upon the arrival there of the mails from
London. The Commercial Association of Manchester,
therefore, in a memorial which they addressed to the
Postmaster-General on the 24th ult. suggested that
a distinct mail northward should be dispatched from
Manchester and Liverpool ; or that (which would be a
great convenience to the merchants of the metropolis as
well as of those of Manchester and Liverpool) a mail
should be dispatched from London at from one to two
c;'elock, P.M., which might be joined by the Manchester
and Liverc°ol letters at Parkside, about seven or eight
o'clock on the sans' evening, and which would arrive at
Edinburgh and Glasgo;7 about six o'clock the following
morning. By this means, tn.: merchants of Manchester
and Liverpool would be allowed un:d. six o'clock in the
evening, for the completion of their nor:_ilern correspon-
dence. The receipt of this memorial has been ac 4 er k n otwe
!1
ledged, and its suggestions are stated to be
consideration of the Postmaster-General. Sine! ,•
e
memorial of the Manchester Commercial Association,
the subject has been taken up in Liverpool, and a me-
morial has been forwarded from that town, recommend..
ing that the morning mail from London should be con-
ieyed by the express train, which arrives at Liverpool at
ten thinutes past three oclock, P.M. They also recom-
mend that the train leaving London at five o'clock, P.m.
should proceed forwafa, to kdieburgh and Glasgow at
ordinary speed, so as to reach thole places at seven
o'clock on the following morning. The Manchester
letters could then be conveyed by the half nest eight
o'clock, P.M. train to Warrington, to meet this train,
and so proceed onward to their destination.---Manchester

RETURNS or THE ROYAL NAVY.—From a Par-

Saturday, it appears that the number of men, boys, and
marines, voted for the Royal Navy in 1829, numbered
30,000 ; and the number ," borne, 32,458 ; whilst in
1847-48, the number was 40,500, aad 1,000 for six
months, and the number " borne," 44,969. In the same

1848, is gins.
