The ENTIRE ISLAND of ELMLEY, .cetnprising 2,300
Acres of old fresh marsh, and 290 Acres of marsh, enclosed 15
years since, all of superior quality, and peculiarly adapted to the
grazing of bullocks and sheep, together with 350 Acres of salt
marsh. These valuable marshes have the pre-eminent advan-
tage of an ample supply of fresh water in all seasons, there being
10 pure springs on the island ; such, also, is the soundness of
these land-, that when the rot in sheep prevailed to a frightful
extent throughout the kingdom, Elmley Island never engen-
dered this destructive disease. There is not a public road, nor
is there a public path, on the island, excepting to the church.
The estate is bounded by the East Swale, and the river walls
are most substantial and in excellent condition ; they are gene-
rally protected by a deep foreground of salt marsh. During
the last 11 years, a period which includes some of the highest
tides known within the memory of man, the repair of these
walls has averaged only 1301. per annum, which is the best test
of cheap security. The buildings on the island consist of cot-
tages for herdsmen, cattle sheds, stabling, &rt. ; these, with th
gates and fences, are kept in repair at the Joint expense of
landlord and tenant ; the average outlay of the landlord does
not exceed 301. per annum. The parochial rates are of insig-
nificant amount. There is but one pauper who at the pre-
sent time reoeives relief in the parish of Elmley. The estate
supplies first-rate coursing ; hares are reared and preserved at
scarcely any cost, and as the island consists exclusively of green
land they may be multiplied without injury, to the occupiers.
This extensive surface of marsh land might, if it were in the
possession of a proprietor of tiltaged estates, be most advanta-
geously parcelled out in certain proportions with the farms,
which are deficient in green land, and the rental of this island,
as well as that of the upland estates, would thus be greatly
augmented. There are several hundred acres of the land com-
prised in this estate which, if it Were thought desirable, might
be advantageously broken up and converted into tillage, the soil
being peculiarly favourable for the production f wheat
and other grain, as well as green crops generally. The
tenants, of whom there are six only, are wealthy, and
of the highest respectability. That the rental is very
moderate is attested by the recent valuation of a compe-
tent local surveyor, whose estimates are confirmed by the opi-
nion of Mr. Simpson. Mr. Simpson is open to private offers
antecedent to the day of sale.
Particulars and plans may now be had of Messrs. Bridges
and Mason, Solicitors, Red Lion-square; of Richard Ba-
thurst, Esq., Solicitor, and Agent to the Estate, Faversham ;
and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury, London.

would always be found ready to assist in every act of
charity, for it was as much their duty to do so as it
was to fight the battles of their native land.—(Cheers.)
He was delighted to sec. so many present on the fourth
anniversary of the charity, and begged cordially to
thank them for the toast they had just drank.
Major OmpuArrr, in returning thanks, trusted
there would always exist an honest rivalry between
that branch of the service and the navy as to which
should best do their duty to their country.—(Cheers.)
He was happy in being there to bear his humble testi-
mony to the merits of one branch of the service in
India—he meant the native troops of that country.—
(Loud cheers.) It was his firm conviction, notwith-
standing the check they had received in that country,
which he attributed in a great measure to the intem-
perance of the climate in which troops the natives of
a tropical region had been called on to act, that we
should speedily retrieve our disasters, and he felt as-
sured that if the native troops should be required togo
there again, they would stand by as truly as the Bri-
tish soldier.—(Loud cheers.) These were not mere
idle words. He knew the native troops well, having
served with them for 22 years, and he spoke from
long experience of their valour and fidelity.—(Hear.)
Air--" Rule Britannia."
The CHAIRMAN said the next toast he had to pro-
pose " The Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Nor-
wich, and the other prelates and clergy who have lent
their valuable assistance to this Society."—(Drank
with three times three ana one cheer more.)
The Bishop of Noawicii felt the highest gratifica-
tion at the manner in which the last toast had been
received. He was proud to find his name thus asso-
ciated with that of the clergy of England.—(Cheers.)
For the first time in his life he felt that he stood in a
proud situation, for he was supported by six British
Admirals.—(Loud cheers.) Long might they live
to tread the deck, for as long as British Admiral could
tread the deck of his ship so long was the glory and
honour of Britain safe.—(Loud cheers.) They had
met together there that day to do their duty by prac-
tising those precepts of charity which it was his duty
to preach.—(Cheers.) A deep feeling of religion was
one of the characteristics of the British seaman.: The
British seaman was deeply imbued with Gospel prin-
ciples, and thus by his valour and his religion, he cast
A two-fold lustre on the British flag.—(Loud cheers )

The CHAIRMAN said the next toast, he had to pro-
pose was "The Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners'
Benevolent Society, and the health of the President
Sir Geo. Cockburn."—(Loud cheers.) In proposing
this toast, he would allude to the latter part of its first.
Sir George Cockburn was an officer whom they all
knew—(Cheers)—and who was equally conspicuous
for his talents in the Cabinet and on the deck. All
his influence had been given to aid the cause of this
society, the foundation of which had furnished the
only thing' wanting to make the climax of Naval
Charitable Institutions.—(Cheers.) These was first
the establishment over which he had the honour to
preside, Greenwich Hospital—(Cheers)—where 2,700
old veterans were provided for by their grateful coun-
try. Then there was the Naval School, where 800 boys
received good nautical instruction, were taught a
variety of useful trades, and had the closest attention
paid to their religious and moral instruction.—
(Cheers,) Next came the Marine Society, and then
that valuable charity, the Sailors' Home. None of
these societies, however, afforded relief to sufferers
from the dreadful calamity of shipwreck. That was
left for this Society to accomplish; a Society which,
as it was established to give relief to the widow and the
orphan, had peculiar claims on the ladies for support.
Sir G. CocKnußN had felt proud at being called on
to return thanks for the navy. He did not feel less
proud at being called on to return thanks for this
toast, for not only had they drank his health, but they
had coupled it with a wish for the prosperity and suc-
cess of the excellent Society, of which it was his good
fortune to be president. Their gall antCh ainn an had truly
observed, that this Society formed the climax of the
naval charities of the country, and he could not but
express his astonishment that some such society had
not long since been established—(Cheers.) It had
been his good fortune to have the,notion of the society
submitted to NM some few years since, and he had
immediately taken up the quiwitinn...which he had
ever since zealously advocated to the utmost of his
ability—(Loud cheers.) Notwithstanding the short
time it had been established the Society had supporters
in every part of the kingdom, and it was deserving of
the support of the whole country, for it had for its
object to relieve distress in every part of the country
—(Loud cheers.) The whole country felt the bene-
fit of the existence of a society of this description—
(Cheers.) Let them recollect what hardships and
dangers the fishermen underwent to procure luxuries
for the country—(Cheers.) He braved the fury of
the tempest and the rage of the ocean—the constant
habit of encountering these perils strengthened his
courage, and in time of war the fisherman was always
found to make the bravest of seamen—(Loud cheers).
Until the other day he had been left to his
distress and if he were overwhelmed in the
ocean, his widow and orphans were left to the
parish. Such, however, was not the case now. This
Society, like an angel of mercy, now stepped
in and gave such relief to the widow and the orphan
as could be given to them—true it could not restore to
them the husband and the father, but such assistance as

PrDublin, on TUESDAY, May 31,
Extensive and Valuable FEE-SIMPLE ESTATES, within
dlout Seven Miles of the City of Limerick, and midway
between Askvaton and Adair.
R. W. AV. SIMPSON has received directions
and two following slays, at One, in Forty-eight Lots (unless
acceptable offers be made for the entire property, or portions
the-. 14 Co nfirrroiTr Z-
thereof, in the interval),
Valuable ESTATES, comprising altogether 7,294 Statute
'N3Tisill(liein Pgrso,
ACRES of very superior Arable, Meadow, and Pasture Land,
chiefly let on old leases to a highly respectable, thriving, and,
in many instances, opulent tenantry, at very low rents, amount-
ing to 6,835/. per annum ; but, on the expiration of the existing
leases, a rental of upwards of 10.0001. per annum may be fairly
calculated on. The situation of this property is eligible in the
extreme, being bounded on the north by the navigable river
Shannon. The lands are proverbial for their depth of staple,
the soil consisting chiefly of a rich deep loam on a
limestone substratum, and producing most luxuriant white
straw and green crops, in all their varieties. Many
of the residences are of a superior grade, and the
farmhouses and cabins are generally above the average
description The rents on these estates are punctually
paid, and the best proof of their being low is, that when
any of the tenants are desirous of disposing g of their holdings
(an event of very rare occurrence), they readily obtain for the
s oodwill or interest therein a sum varying from 15/. to 20/.
per Iri.th acre. Mr. W. N. Simpson has in this, as in every
other instance, care'ully avoided misrepresentation, and re-
jected altogether those florid descriptions which too frequently
lead to annoyance and disappointment in the minds of pur-
chasers, who naturally will jidge for themselves. Mr. Simpson,
at the same time, fearless of contradiction, ventures to assert,
from the result of personal survey and valuation, that an estate
of such value, reversionarj interest, and capabilities, is very
rarely the subject of public competition, taking even the wide
range of the United 'ingdorn•

money and kindness couldrender to them, it rendered
It preserved to them their native cottage and their
own fireside—(Cheers)—and the widow and the or-
phans, for whom these things had been done, called down
for blessings upon their heads.—(Cheers.) Did they
not feel happy—did they not feel proud in support-
ing an Institution of that kind.—(Loud cheers) He
called upon all, as far as was in their power, to con-
tribute to the support of the Society.—(Cheers.) He
asked them, in the name of the Society, to speak to
their friends on the subject, and to spread abroad by
every means in their power the value of the Society—
(Continued cheering)—so ifs to procure a large meet-
every year.—(Cheers.) Nothing could be more ho-
nourable to the nation than the manner in which the
Society had been supported—(Cheers)—and he felt as-
sured the claims of that Society for support were
equal to that of any other society in the Metropolis.—
(Continued cheering.) Let them look around the coasts
of England, upwards of one thousand persons
were cast ashore annually.—(Hear.) It was not to
seamen alone that this Society was confined,
but it gave relief to every poor individual cast on our
shores.—(Loud cheers.) Formerly, if an unfortu-
nate being were cast on our shores he was a beggar
until he could get to his friends. After having
struggled hard to save his ship, he had to commence a
desperate struggle with the waves to save his life, and
was at last cast upon the shore all buts corpse. There,
formerly, he lay without help, exposed to the fury of
the elemen there was no one to assist him ; but
now the ~of the Society stepped forward at once,
age%
and said, "to ' -care of this man, I will pay for his
being conveyed to a place of safety." The sufferer
was taken care of, recovered, and sent to his friends.
—(Cheers.) That was the object of this Society.
The Society had only been in existence three years ;
in those three years it had spread all over the empire,
and in future not an individual could be cast on any
part of our shores where he would not find an agent of
the Society to take care of him. He was pleased to
hear the Right Reverend Prelate say he was
proud to see himself supported by six Admirals,
and would observe, in reply, that the Navy ought to
be proud to have such an advocate.—(Loud cheers.)
He thought the navy was most anxious to have the
support of the Established Church. There were no
men more truly religious than the navy. They were
under the deepest obligation to the Bishop 4 Nor-
wich for the kind manner in which he had stood for-
ward that day to advocate their cause ; and he was
sure if some of his Right Rev. Brethren would follow
his example they could not do better.—(Loud cheers.)
He trusted that the example he had set in attending
this meeting that day would be followed by his Right
Rev. Brethren—(Cheers)—and he doubted not to see
the amount of the subscriptions doubled.—(Loud
cheers.)
Song—". The Fisherman's Widow"—Mr. Hawkins.
The SECRETARY then read the first report of sub-
scriptions to the Society, which amounted to 526/.165.
Among the subscribers were—Sir Robert Stopford,
Si. ss. ; the Duke of Roxburgh, Si. ss. ; the East ndia
Company, 50/. ; Mr. Sydney Herbert, 251.; Sir G.
Cockburn, 51. 55.; the Bishop of Norwich, 31. 3s. ;
Lord Eliot, 10/. ; the Earl of Lonsdale, 51. ; the Bishop
of Chichester, .5/. ; Mr. B. Botfield, M.P., Si.; Mr.
Hardy, M.P., 51. ; Sir J. Kempt, al. 3s, : Mr. Horace
Twiss, 1/. ; and seventeen fishermen of Barking an
annual subscription of 21, 7s.
The Bishop of NORWICH said it was his privilege
to rise again, to propose a toast which would be re-
ceived with enthusiasm by every Englishman—" The
health of their Chairman, Sir Robert Stopford."—
(Loud cheers.) In speaking on that subject he
scarcely knew where to begin—(Loud cheers)—and
once begun, he scarcely knew where to stop.—
(Cop-
tinned cheering.) Living, as he did, in a district
surrounded by sandbanks, which were more fatal
than rocks, he had been a witness of the skill and
valour of naval officers in the performance of their

of the ship. He did • not seek to escape hiMl
self, but wrote a note in pencil, and sent it
on shore, bequeathing his widowed mother to the
cars of his country. He sunk alone in his glory.—
(Loud cheers.) He (the Bishop)
.had said that :he-
was proud of the position he occupied ; and ought not.
a biihop to be proud, when he numbered so many
admirals in his flock ?—(Loud cheers.) It was only
last January .that a brig was ashore, on the coast of
Norfolk.' Lieutenant Parker launched his boat, and
proceeded to her assistance. His anchor came home,
but he cared not for that. He braved every danger,
in the cause of humanity. • - He ran under her bows,
and he had the satisfaction Of rescuing seven,- out of
eight of his fellow-creatures, from their perilous si-
tuation.—(Loud cheers.) It was impossible to speak
on such a subject, without alluding to the shining
example they had before them, in the Gallant Admi-
ral in the chair, of what British perseverance and'
courage could do.--(Loud cheers.) Their Gallant
Chairman came before them fresh from the wars of.
Syria, covered with laurels.—(Loud cheers.) On
such a theme, words were unnecessar. If he said
one word—if he said Sir Robert Stopford—that
would be sufficient to inspire them with the spirit be-
fitting the occasion.—(Loud cheers.) The toast was,
then drank with three times three, and one cheer more.
Sir R. STOPFORD in returning thanks said that the
success of the late naval operations on the coast of
Syria, was a proof of the superiority of our system of
naval steam navigation, for which we were principally
indebted to the exertions of his late Majesty King
William IV.—(Loud cheers.)
Song—Miss Williams—" Catherine Mavourneen."
The Rev. Dr. CuoLy,in proposing the health of the
Vice-Presidents of the Society, compared the state of
the fisherman with that of the peasant class which was,
generally, as the most wretched class in society. The
peasant look on the sunset with rejoicing, as releasing
him from toil—to the fishermen, it was the signal call-
ing him forth to brave the fury of the elements. The
peasant left his home to. go to his daily labour with a
feeling of almost certainty that he should return to it.
again ; the fisherman had no such certainty, yet it
was to the fishermen that we were indebted for our
naval supremacy. The Church had always taken a
peculiar interest in the navy. She had sent more child-
ren into the navy than any other profession had done.
He could never forget that the illustrious Nelson was
the son of a clergyman.—(Loud cheers.) It was to
that fact that he attributed the religious feelings of
which Nelson, notwithstanding all his faults, had
been actuated throughout life.—(Loud cheers.)—The
toast was drank with three times three.
Admiral YOUNG said he was more accustomed to
work than to talk, and therefore he would content
himself with simply returning them thanks.
The CHAIRMAN then proposed the Members of the
House of Commons, who have afforded their influential
patronage to this Society.—Drank with three times
three.

Sir C. LEMAN in returning thanks, said he should
have done so with feelings of higher gratifica-
tion if,
.in the naval estimates for the year,
he had perceived a vote to the Society.—(Cheers.)
The extension of this Society would tend to do away
with the much abused system of passes for ship-
wrecked seamen, and on that account it was well
worthy of support. He could bear his testimony to
the vast amount of good which the Society had
accomplished on the coast of Cornwall.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN then proposed, " The Committee of
Management."—Drank with three times three.
Sir Cr(RORGE WESTPHAL, in returning thanks, said
that there had been already established 406 auxiliary
Societies in different parts of the country.—(Loud
cheers.) If there was one individual to whom more
than another, the Society was under a (Jeep obligation
it was Mr. Middlemass, to whose indefatigable exer-
tions) the present prosperous state of the Society was,
in a!great measure, owing.—(Cheers.) _ •

Sir G. COCKBURN said it Was impossible to do jus-
tice` to the indefatigableexertioass of Mr. Middlemas.
Early and late, Mr.‘SiLiddlemass was at his post, and
as the President of the Society, he knew that it was
impossible for any one to do more for the Society than
Mr. Middlemass had done. He begged to propose
the health of Mr. Middlemass.—(Cheers.)
Drank with three times three. -
Mr. MinDLEAcias returned thanks.
Major OLIPHANT as Steward of the Ladies' Gallery,
announced that he ?lad collected in.half-crowns from
the ladies 3/. 12s.—(Lond cheers.)
The Health of the Ladies hay* been drank with
all the honours

Sir G. COCKBURN said, that no gentleman who had
joined in the toast, could do less than follow the ex-
ample the ladies had set him, and subscribe his half-
crown--(Cheers.)
Mr. MIDDLEMASS then read the second report of
the subscriptions'' from which it appeared that the
amount received, from the ladies' subscription lists,
was 67/., ; that there had been collected in the room,
in addition to the 31. 12s. 6d. from the ladies in the
gallery, 91. 7s. 6d., and that the total amount collected
was 9141. 7s.

=~~:

The next toast was—" The Chairman and Court of
Directors of the lion. East India Company, with
thanks to them for their liberal support."
Sir G. COCKBURN said, that as Major Oliphant was
a candidate for a seat in the direction of that Company,
and as he would most likely be elected, he had better
return thanks.—(Cheers.)
Major OLIPHANT said, that after such a call he
could not resist. The East India Company had always
been most liberal and munificent, and if he should
ever have the good fortune to be elected to the Court
of Directors his voice should always be raised in nit
vocacy of such excellent institutions as the present.
Sir GEORGE COCKBURN said he had just- received
a letter from a very ingenious gentleman, Mr. Bush,
who had undertaken to erect a lighthouse on the
Goodwin Sands, and to whom the Admiralty, as in
duty bound, would afford every assistance in their
power. Mr. Bush stated that he expected that there would
be a great number of persons assembled to see the
foundation of the lighthouse laid, and that whatever
sum of money they might produce, he would place at
the disposal of the Saciety.—(Cheers.) He begged
to propose the health of Mr. Bush.—(Loud
Drank with three times three.
Song,—" The fourleaved Shamrock," Mr. Hobbs.
The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The Press, which
has benevolently advanced the cause of the charity."
The toast hiving been drank with three times three,
the Chairman immediately left the room, and the
party broke up, highly delighted with the manner in
which the evening had been spent.

The Drury-lane season, as we announced last week
will conclude to-night with Anderson's benefit. It has
been merely experimental, and if Macready has managed
not to be a loser by it, under all the circumstances, he
has good reason to be satisfied. People, evidently in an
adverse interest, have been circulating stories all the week
regarding his supposed heavy losses ; but how little is
really known upon the subject may be judged from
the fact, that all parties maintain that they are well
informed, and yet they vary in their statements between
2,0001. and 12,0001. For our own parts, we do not profess
to be at all in the secret, but this we can assert,
that there is nothing more absurd than such calcula-
tions. Macready could not commence operations without a
certain outlay. and that outlay was some above his esti-
mate ; but it is as it were seed sown for a next. year's
crop, and it will enable him to renew his exertions in
October under great advantages. It is to a certain ex-
tent money sunk, but with a view to a probable and a
large return. It has been ridiculously asserted in some
quarters that Macready will be content with his present
sacrifice—that he will consider the experiment as com-
pleted, and that next year he will not continue his efforts.
These are weak inventions of the enemy, and all
those who are favourable to Covent-garden fancy that
they must speak against Drury-lime, forgetting that
experience has almost invariably shown that the pro-
sperity of one house is the prosperity of the other. As a proof
that Macready does net intend to relinquish his under-
taking, almost before it can be said to have commenced,
we may announce that he has actually signed and sealed
articles with Mr. and Mrs. C. Matthews (so we under-
stand Madame Vestris is to be called in future), giving
them jointly not 1001. per week (as was foolishly men-
tioned some time ago, when we ridiculed the idea), but
more than half that sum. They will both be soon re-
lieved from a weight of debt and anxiety, and we may
expect to see them next year at Drury-lane in
high health and full spirits. Respecting the prospects
of Covent Garden, we have at present nothing further
to communicate. C. Kemble and Bartley are to be the
managers for the rest of the proprietors, and when we
have Stated this, we have really given every thing that
has yet been positively decided. The opinions respect-
ing the return of Mrs. Butler to the stage are strongly
expressed both ways. Our notion of the matter we have
already stated, and to that notion we adhere, in spite of
all that may he said to the contrary. We have heard it
said that C. Kemble does not intend to exert himself
more than is necessary as an actor, and that with a view
to relieving himself he has been recently negotiating
with Mr. and Mrs. C. Kean. We can vouch that there
is not one word of truth in this retort.
A few weeks back Daniel Good met in the street
Dr. Wade, late surgeon of the Penitentiary, a gentle-
man whose high professional attainments were, if possi-
ble, surpassed by his efforts to improve the moral feeling
of the culprits under his care. Good addressed him,
but receiving no answer in the first instance, said " I
fear your forget me, doctor ;" the doctor's answer
was 4, I do know you, Mr. Good, but it is a regula-
tion in the Penitentiary that none of its officers should
recognise any Peron who had been confined there,
lie added the expression of his anxious hope that. Good
' would profit by the lesson he la: . received, and be, for
' the future, a better man. G... instantly said, " Oh,
