DEATH ON THE PALE HORSE,

Representing the opening of the first five Seals : the effect
proposed to be excited by this Picture is the terribly sub-
lime, and its various modifications, until lost in the oppo-
site extremes of pity and horror,—a sentiment which
Painting had not, until then, attempted successfully to
awaken. This is indeed a chef d'oeuvre ; and the same
panegyric might be safely pronounced on the remaining
150 Picturos. The space allotted for this purpose is,
however, insufficient, and this imperfect description will
end by -intreating especial attention to the following :

nected with the Estate. Te Markets in the vicinity are
good, and the river Severn approximating upon the Coton
Property, gives additional facility to the export of the pro-
duce to distant markets. There are Corn and Water Mills,
and the INN ON THE ROAD MIDWAY BETWEEN BRIDGE-

Indeed it would be very difficult to suggest so satisfactory
an Investment, in a County proverbial for all the advan-
ta_;es the most favoured can aspire to.
