RESPECTABLE TOWN OF CHESTERFIELD.

There are gardens and pleasure-grounds quite ample. There is
a pretty terrace-walk, and a fish-pond abundantly stocked. In days
of yore it was the residence of

THE HEATHCOTE FAMILY,
a name honoured for its great respectability, and one that does not
yield in a single attribute that lan adorn high character to any
other throughout the kingdom. The abode possesses every ac.
commodation a gentleman retiring from the busy scenes of mercan.
tile pursuits, or a yeoman of high standing can desire, with offices
of every description. There are

pact, and

terfted is a

CHIEF STATION ON THE NORTH MIDLAND
RAILWAY.

It Is the best market for corn throughout the district, and all the
principal fairs for cattle are held there. The turnpike.road to it.
and to Bakewell passes through the property.

The Coal and Iron-stone under the Estate is considerable. Game
may be preserved to some extent, as it joins
THE DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE'S PRESERVES,

and is not far from the Moors, where good shooting can be ob.
tained. The contiguous waters afford excellent trout-fishing.
The country around is exceedingly picturesque, and extends to all
the interesting objects of a neighbourhood distinguished by its su.
perior occupants, with famed Chatsworth within a short drive, and
Sheffield only twelve miles off.

THE ADVOWSON AND NEXT PRESENTATION TO
THE RECTORY OF ABBESS RODING,

in Essex, only twenty-seven miles from London. This snug living
does not aspire to a very high position in respect to income, nor
the residence to more than a domicile full of comfort. When it is
stated that
THE PRESENT GENERATION AND THEIR ANCESTRY
HAVE NUMBERED NEARLY ONE HUNDRED YEARS
in the enjoyment of these tithes, it will be imagined that modern
tactics might be emilloyed to some advantage; observing, however,
that throughout it is replete with all the convenience and every
comfort a respectable Clergyman can desire ; placed on a fine com-
manding spot, with a double yew hedge to protect it from the pasing
gaze, and surrounded by a beautiful lawn and pleasure grounds,
shrubbery adorned by a conservatory, leading to
THE GLEBE OF EIGHTEEN ACRES OF VERY PROLIFIC
LAND,
as the produce from the dairy at this moment demonstrates in lan.
guage not to be misunderstood. The offices within and without
will be found abundant. Plenty of stabling, coachhouses, &c., the
whole surrounded by good roads, a capital neighbourhood, prone to
good fellowship, and so close to the Church that the Incumbent
would be perplexed in any weather for an excuse to escape his cluty.
The churchyard confirms the general Impression that the neighbour-
hood is healthy, for very few have been deposited there for the last
filly years, and the medical profession, finding their vocation hope.
less in this vicinity, have retreated to a less congenial climate.
THE TITHES ARE COMMUTED

at 4301., and, with the parsonage and glebe, may safely be as-
sessed at FIVE HUNDRED GUINEAS A YEAR,
The population 234, with single duty. To this may be ap.
pended a welcome fact, that the purchaser (if he be worthy of this
preference) will be immediately appointed Curate, with 1001. a
year annexed to it. The gardens are so extensive that a large
family must keep open house to consume all the product. It should
have been observed, the Church has a superior chancel, adorned
by two ancient and very fine monuments, where a portion of the
Essex family are deposited. There is a classic screen, and of good
design, to separate this from the Church, and the marble font may
safely claim an existence beyond a century. The window has some
beautiful painted glass, and is very ancient. In fact, whether it
be of the parsonage and its never.ending comforts, or of the Church
and its appointments (and the worthy Rector may be sure to be
numbered with the latter), it is an advowson that has strong claims
to public favour, and to be severely contested for.
