THE LOUVRE OF PARIS

as one magical attraction of the inimitable powers of those Artists
whose works have adorned the historic pages of art during past
centuries.

A considerable number of the pictures recorded by the engravings
io this work were restored at the conquest of Paris to the various
Governments to whom they originally belonged, and thereby so dis-
persed the collection as to increase the high and just elstimate of this
matchless work of art. This copy was purchased at Paris in the year
1814, and to its continuation by Louis XVIII., also subscribed for,
splendidly bound in russia, in six vols. folio. Also.

Paitsstureisfamed tor its capability in fattening Bullocks very quickly, and those
who are at all conversant in the soil of the land will know how to
appreciate these important facts.
The whole is occupied by a tenantry of long standing as tenants-at-
will; it will, however, be exceedingly desirable to make in this
respect very considerable alterations. The Farms are used in
their ancient state, and are infinitely too small. Sound judg-
ment will direct that they be divided into five or six, instead
ce the present number; it will then be a matter of great
facility to provide substantial Yeomen to get rich upon this
greatly favoured soil: but Mr. Robins would fail in his duty
to the Public if he did,not.state that the Houses and Out-Buildings
throughout the Property are greatly in need of repair ; indeed, the
suggestion he would venture to make is, to rate them to the ground,
and with the materials, and less than £2,000, Three First-rate
Abodes, with corresponding farming premises, replace the present
works of antiqUity. It shculd be observed that there is a saving
clause to this proposition, inasmuch as Robert Searby's abode and
buildings need no outlay whatever, and this is the largest tarn.
THE PROPERTY NUMBERS
TWELVE HUNDRED AND FIVE ACRES,
INDEPENDENTLY OF THE TITHES UPON THE ESTATE.
THE WHOLE WITHIN A RING FENCE,
besides the unpretending, but really comfortable little public-house,
known as " the Monson Arms," where " mine host" Eno knows
and practices what belongs to the entertainment and comfort of his
friends.

The next important point will be to direct a purchaser's judgment
to the rental. The clear yearly receipt for years back has been
£2,660 a year. The times having varied, Mr. Robins has subjected it
to a careful personal survey, and he is not a little pleased to proclaim
a very welcome fact, that when the outlay already noticed is accom-
plished, the property will very readily produce, with an unexcep-
tionable tenantry, from £2,700 to
TWO THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR.
The division of the soil is very encouraging ; there are 521 acres of
capital Grazing Land, 230 acres of excellent Meadow Land, and 455
acres of soil congenial to Wheat and Oats ; the former yielding five
and six quarters and the latter from seven to ten quarters per acre.
Now this representation of the Estate cannot be chargA with colour-
ing the Landscape beyond its deserts ; and it may be well to remind
such as were last year sceptical in respect to the corn-laws, that the
agricultural horizon is no longer clouded by doubt or uncertainty—
the manly, judicious, and unequivocal declaration of
SIR ROBERT PEEL
ought to quiet the apprehensions of all those who desire to see the
agriculturing and manufacturing interests go quietly in harness toge.
ther, without any undue partiality. Indeed, his declaration is so en.
couraging, I cannot do better than quote his own words—it will, or
ought to silence scepticism
I NEITHER HAVE, NOR DO I CONTEMPLATE
ANY CHANGE WHATEVER IN THE
CORN- LA WS."
To conclude, Trustees, and all persons having their capital depo-
sited in the funds, will do well to ponder, and to exercise their
understanding, and the result must (or ought to be) that Three
por Cents.' at 96 is a fearfully high and unnatural price as corn.
pared with Land which will now return a clear income of Three and
a Half per Cent., with prospective views exceedingly delightful,
when placed in juxtaposition with the Funds.
