and PARISH CHURCH of HO WNAIII, in the presbytery
of Jedburgh.

The whole of the above farms are out of lease at Whit-
sunday next, 1829. With the exception of Chatto, they
have been occupied for some years past upon yearly tenures,
without leases ; and the rents are estimated upon the
principle of leases being granted for seven or nine yeara,
but these estimated rents are so moderate, that they cannot
fail to be obtained readily from tenants of capital and skill.
The npset prices have been calculated at such a number of
years' purchase of the free rents as will afford a most ad-
vantageous and secure investment to purchasers.
The first two puts lie about eight miles from Jedburgh,
and twelve from Kelso. The lands are mostly rich pas-
ture, while each lot has an adequate proportion of arable
land. In particular, Chatto is known to rank among the
most beautiful and valuable sheep farina in the south of

The third, fourth, and fifth lota are sitnated about six

The sixth lot is situated near the village of Ancium, in
a fertile vale, having for its southern boundary the river
Teviot, from which it rises with a gentle ascent. The soil
is excellent, and capable of yielding abundant crops of every
kind. This farm is wholly enclosed and subdivided by
thriving hedges, and affords several delightful situations for

THE ROYAL FILTER FOF CISTERNS,
And Portable Filters of all Dimensions.
BY HIS MAJESTY'S LETTERS PATENT.
IN submitting the above invaluableDisiu'very
to the attention of the Public, the Proprietors feel it
incumbent on them to enumerate a few of its Pleading
characteristics. The prevailing opinion of the ititUyity,
and consequent insalubrity of the Water supplied tithe
Inhabitants of this City, is,so well founded, and so amply
borne out by the numerous Testimonials of the most
Eminent of the Metropolitan Faculty, and by the recent
communications made by the Commissioners appointed
by Parliament, that any comment in this place would
appear like questioning the national common sense. This
mode of Filtration not only clarifies, but purifies, the
most turbid, fetid, stagnant water, rendering it of a
crystalline brilliancy, and at the same time most effectually
destroying both SMELL and TASTE. Its adaptation to
Cisterns enhances its valuable qualities, by obviating the
trouble of repeatedly charging it as heretofore, and
ensures an effectual preventive against the possibility of
employing any other Water thin that which has passed the
Filter, either for Culinary operations, or in fact for any
domestic purposes. The rapidity of the process of Filtra-
tion, stands conspicuous amongst its advantages. The
Proprietors do not (as hitherto has been usual in advertising
Filters) state the precise number of Gallons capable of being
produced ; but:are enabled confidently to assert that so fast
as the Water is supplied at the top of the Filter, so fast
will it discharge itself from the bottom in .a highly purified
state.—lts moderate Price, (from Three Guineas upwards,
bnt rarely exceeding Six, in proportion to the dimensions
of Cisterns) by rendering it attainable to all Housekeepers,
confers a real blessing on Society, by at once removing the
cause of a multitude of Diseases, which are justly attri-
butable to the noxious particles contained in the Water.

To accommodate Private Families who desire to have
Portable Filters, it is respectfully suggested that they are
to be had of all dimensions at the Office in the Strand, and
are forwarded to all parts of England. The Royal Filter,
upon this plan, will chrystalize and purify as much water
in the course of the day as the largest consumption of a
family can desire.
The Prospectus may be had, and Filters, in full opera-
tion, may be inspected, at the Office of the Patentees,
George Robins and others, Nr. 69, Strand, opposite the
Adelphi Theatre, where Orders are requested to be
addressed.
