it really does not pretend to such a mark of distinction. It is
A DELIGHTFUL VILLA ABODE,
with every accommodation for a snug family; but, it, accordance
with Mr. Robins's invariable practice, he must state that the hand
of an artiste, to renovate the interior, will be accounted essential,
and the

is so perfectly beautiful that an outlay of 2001. or 3001. will be
encountered without a murmur. The residence is in the centre of
the town, shut out from the public gaze by a full.grown plantation,
&c. It is full of comfort, and a gentleman whose income extends
to 1,0001. or 2,0001. a year will have no serious difficulty to en-
counter in distributing it at Leatherhead. The gardens and

IN LINCOLNSHIRE.

INGLEBY WOOD, in the 'PARISH of SAXILBY, Steven Mlles
from LINCOLN. SIXTY.FIVE ACRES of VALUABLE

GROWING OAK TIMBER.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to OFFER
to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart,
London, on THURSDAY, the 4th of July, at Twelve o'Clock, in
Two Lots,
THE RESIDUE OF THE LATE LORD MONSON'S
ESTATES,

comprising INGLEBY WOOD, with upwards of
65 ACRES OF FINE OAK TIMBER TREES,
the average size of which approaches 50 feet, and also
A QUANTITY OF ASH POLES,
from ten to twenty years' growth. The wood adjoins a farm which
was sold by the late Lord Monson, and
LANDS BELONGING TO THE CROWN,

but the circumstance which will give it most importance is—the
easy shipment of the timber whenever a fall is taken, the estate
being within a short mile from

THIS ELEGANT SEAT

has long obtained a high place in public estimation ; it is seen
nestling on a lawn of exceedingly great beauty, adorned by a great
array of Am erican plants and flowering Shrubs, with an infinity
of stately elms 120 feet in height, which form a panorama around

THIS LITTLE ELYSIUM.
There is in the centre a very prolific kitchen garden, but entirely
excluded from view by a little management and dexterity. The
views are many and varied—Caen Wood Is in direct communica-
tion—Has row Spire and 'Windsor Castle in the distance. The
Ilek.th and its refreshing atmosphere close at hand, and although
it can at all times partake of the bustle of the passing sc.ene, the
skill and mind of the noble po,sessor has given to it
a privacy that could not be exceeded one hundred miles
removed from this delightful spot—in one short sentence, it may
be proclaimed as unsurpassable; and yet all these charms are con-
spicuous at a distance of only four miles from town. In respect of
the Villa abode something may be done in the way of decoration
that will greatly improve it; bygone taste arid the present are a
little opposed to eaeh other—a clever artiste in ornamental repair
may crup!oy 2001. or 5001. with much advantage, but throughout
it possesses all the accommodation a family of pretension will aspire
to; it weuld puzzle one aid cted with the contagion of being fasti-
dious overmuch to point out a comfort that is not conspicuous.
In the courtyard is ever essential for a large establishment.—
sLbling for six or seven horses, double coach-house, oairy,
piggery; in short. everything that the mind's eye can desire, is
at hand. The neighbourhood is greatly favoured by the good
feeling that exists everywhere. It has always been remarked
there is less of turmoil to be encountered amongst the select
society of the Heath, than any o her piace can bo ist. There is

a little removed, where five or six cows arc depastured, and suffi-
cient hay grown f"r the stable department. This is le:.sehold
tenure, at a reasomble rent.

IMPORTANT.-TO THE LADIES.

(From Punch.)
The great success which the " Strong Wind" has met
with in the lottery of wedlock, has induced his companions
in arms and paint—the Ojibbeway Indians—to advertise
for English wives; and as the said Indians are very
shortly about to leave the country, early applications
on the 'part of the ladies are desirable. The Indians
have already at least one wife, but they promise, even as
" Strong Wind" promised, to remain constant to their
new helpmates; a promise which, upon their return to
the back woods, they will doubtless most honourably
perform. We subjoin the advertisements :
No. 1. _

" An-QuE-wx-zawrrs—the Boy Chief. The adver-
tiser is in his seventy-fifth year, and shall be happy to
form a matrimonial engagement with any English lady
of known property. The Boy Chief, in his admiration of
the martial character of England, will have no objection
to the widow of a general officer, if under forty. Her
property must not be secured upon herself. She must
know how to cure bear's flesh, to hoe, and rake, and
dig, and reap. She must also be able to skin rabbits,
and clean pipes. Principals only treated with. Apply
from tea to twelve.
" N.B.—The squaw must have been vaccinated.
No. 11.

PA.TAI4-NA-QUET-A-WER-DE—the Driving Cloud.
The advertiser is the War Chief, aged 51, of a remarkably
placable and humourous disposition. Ile has no objection
to treat with a young English lady, and he will, on a mar-
riage settlement, secure to her his scalps. The lady must
have been tenderly and affectionately brought up, as she
will have to carry the wigwam poles of the Driving Cloud
upon all journeys. She must bring a sufficient income to
keep her husband in tobacco, rum, and laziness. English
securities preferred: no holders of Pennsylvanian bonds
will be treated with."

COURT MARTIAL.

PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 25.—A court-martial was held this
day on board the St. Vincent, 120, flag-ship of Sir Charles
Rowley, Bart., G.C.8., G.C.11., Admiral of the White and
Commander in-Chief at this port, to try, pursuant to an
order from the Hon. Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty,
dated the 19th inst., Mr. George Martyr Smith, acting mate
on board her Majesty's brig Pantaloon, 10, Commander C. 11.
Lapidge, on a number of somewhat frivolous charges.
The Court, having heard the whole of the evidence pro-
duced in support of the charge, and by the prisoner, and
what he had to allege in his defence, was of opinion that the
charges had not been proved against the said©Mr. Georghade
Martyr Smith, except that the said Mr. Georg Smith
been guilty of having improverly made use of the name of
his commander, the said Charles Horace Lapidge, in the
gun-room of the said brig, and did admonish the said Mr.
George Martyr Smith to avoid in future the line of conduct
so calculated to subvert the discipline of her Majesty's
service.
The trial commenced at nine o'clock, and did not terminate
until nearly five.
The Thames convict ship, with about 170 convicts from
the hulks at this port, sailed this morning from Spithead at
five o'clock. The Thames takes out dispatchesfor Sir Charles
Adam, whom she will find at Bermuda on her arrival.

Mr. Manning, the Comptroller of the Customs at
the port of London, has retired on full salary of 1,0001. a year.
Mr. fanning has been nearly, if not quite, half a century in
tip service of the Crown.
THE EARL AND COUNTESS OF JERSEY'S GRAND
PAETY.—A splendid entertainment was given last evening by
the Master of the Horse and Countess of Jersey, at the
family mansion in Berkeley-square. The Countess's assembly
was preceded by a sumptuous banquet, for which corers were
laid 'for twenty-two. His Serene Highness Prince Edward
of Saxe Weimar, his Excellency the French Ambassador and
Countess de St. Aulaire, the Duke of 'Wellington, the Duke
and Duchess of Beaufort, the Marquis of Salisbury, his Ex-
cellency Baron Nieumann, the Lord Chancellor, Lady Lynd-
hurst, and the lion. Miss Copley, Marquis of Granby, Vis-
count Curzon, Earl of Brownlow and Lady Caroline Cust,
Lady Augustus Somerset, Lord Lovaine, Viscount Ossulston,
&c., were among the guests of the Noble Earl and Countess.
In the latter part of the evening the entire suite of elegant

A NTIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR-
'ANCt SOCIETY,
• 26, CORNHILL, LONDON.
Capital £-500,000.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu-
tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par-
ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as beet to
suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well
as to afford the full benefit to his faianly at death, and annual division
of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that
the :Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di-
rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy
on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the
amount already invested ; and this bonus, according to an equitable
scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of fixture
premiums
