VALUABLE ESTATE IN SCOTLAND.
KINCARDINESHIRE.

Valuable and Extensive Estates, with Splrndid Mansion-
house, in the County of Kincardine.
TO BE SOLD B Y PUBLIC AUCTION,
Within the Royal Exchange Coffee-house, Edinburgh, on
WEDNESDAY the-22d of July next, at Two o'clock af-
ternoon, if not previously disposed of by Private Bar-
gain, at the Upset Price of 170,000/.
riIHE ESTATES OF DUNOTTAR,
BARRAS, LITTLE BARRAS and LEYS, FALL-
SIDE, and GROUND in the Town of Stonehaven, lying
in the parishes of Dunottar, Kineff, Arbuthnot, Glenber-
vie, and Fetteresso. All the Estates adjoin, and contain
7,851 Imperial Acres, of which upwards of 5,000 are
Arable, about 640 in Wood, and the remainder in Pasture
and Moor Ground, a great part of which is improvable.
The whole lies contiguous to the town and sea-port of
Stonehaven, to which there is excellent access by the two
great south turnpike roads, which run through the pro-
perty, and capital commutation.roada intersecting the
same. 00. Dunottar there is a splendid modern Mansion-
house, with extensive walled garden, hut-houses, and ex-
cellent office-houses. The greatest part of the property
holds of the Crown, and affords six freehold qualifications
in the county. The present rent is upwards of 5,000/.
per annum, and when the leases expire a very consider-
able rise will be obtained, particularly on several of the
large Farms held on life-rent leases granted between forty
and fifty years ago. There are seventeen Acres of Land
in the town of Stonehaven and immediate vicinity, which
may be feued orlet on building leases to great advantage.
The Game having been carefully preserved for many years,
these Estates aff,rd shooting superiot perhaps to what is
to be bad any where in Scotland. Pheasants, hares, and
partridges, are in the greatest abundance ; there are plenty
of roe-deer ;
,and snipe, wild duck, and rabbit shooting,
is nowhere to be surpassed. Fowlshough, a range, of
grand romantic rocks, where there is excellent sea-fowl
shooting, is on the property ; and one or two capital
trouting streams, run through. the Estate. The teinds
are valued, and nearly exhausted ; the land-tax of Dunot-
tar and Fallside is redeemed ; and the public burdens are
moderate. These Estates are so well.conuected, and com-
bine so many advantages, either for investment, or as a
place of residence for a wealthy proprietor, that it is in-
tended to dispose of them in One Lot. But in the event
of a sale of the whole not being effected soon, the property
'Will be disposed of in Four Lots.
Lot Ist, Comprehending the WEST PART of DUNOT-
TAR (with the Mansion-house, Gardens, Offices, and
Policies;) LANDS in and about Stonehaven ; with the
MILL INN, one of the best frequented in Scotland.

Dusottar House is a most beautiful and convenient
place of residence, containing the most ample accommo-
dation which any Nobleman's or Gentleman's family can
require. It is in thorough repair, and is situated in a fine
lawn, surrounded by thriving woods and plantations. At
a suitable distance from the house, and concealed by a
wood, is an extensive 'set of stable's, coach-house, dog -ken-
nel, &c. The Policies are laid out with great taste ; and
the gardens, hot-houses,- and pinery, which are extensive,
are stocked with every variety of trees and plants, in full
bearing. The Mansion-house is within sixteen miles of
Aberdeen, and one mile of Stonehaven, where there are
txcellent markets. The mail and three stage-coaches pass
o and from the south daily. The Aberdeen and Leith
SteaM-vessels call off Stonehaven within half a mile of the
harbour, and a fine steam-vessel which_ sails between
Aberdeen and London makes the passage in little more than
two days. The extent of this lot is 2,066 Acres Arable,
501 of Wood, and 990 of Pasture, &c. Upset price, 95,0001.
Lot 2d, Comprehending the EAST PART of DUNOT-
TAR ESTATE, measuring 953 Acres of very valuable
Arable Land, 48 of Wend, and 256 of Pasture, &c. Up-
set price, 30,000/.

Lot 3d, FALLSIDE, measuring 59 Acres of Arable, 83
of Wood, and one of Moor Pasture; lies five miles front
Stonehaven, by the Laurencekirk turnpike road, and on
which there is a comfortable dwelling-house, with garden
and offices. Upset price, 3,0001.
Lot 4th, Gmiprehending the whole of BARRAS,
LITTLE BARRAS, and LEYS, measuring upwards of
2,014 Acres of excellent Arable Land, five of Wood, and
S7O of Pasture, &e. This lot affords an excellent invest-
ment for capital. On each of the lots there is a corn-
mill, with water-power and drying kiln attached. A
large proportion of the purchase-money may, if required,
remain in the purchsser's hands. Upset price, 513,0001.
For further information apply to Messrs. Hunter, Camp-
bell, and Cathcart, W. S. ; or to Messrs. Andrew and
Alexander Jopp, Advocates in Aberdeen, in whose hands
complete plans and rentals of the estates may be• seen.

This heautifal and very extensive Estate, cornprehend'ng,
upwards of 108,000 Acres, is situate in 'the southern dis-
trict of the county of Inverness, in the centre otthe High-
lands of Scotland, and nearly at an equal distance from
the east and west seas. The rent payable at present is
49121. Is. The public burdens are moderate; the teinds
v tined and exhausted in the parishes of Laggan and Alvie,
with but a small balance subject to an augmentation of
stipend in the parish of Kin,gussie. The whole Lands hold
of the Crown, and afford above seven Freehold qualifica-
tions in the county. -

The Estate possesses many advantages, which cannot be
easily detailed in an advertisement.

Although principally a grazing country, and adapted
'more for sheep and black cattle than for growing corns,
yet it has great capacities of improvenient as an agricul-
tural district, and along the banks of the river Spey,
through the wii.ole extent of the Lordship, there are very
extensive tracts of fine natural Meadow, with a number of
Ai able Tarcas in -a high state of cultivation. Limestone
rock abounds in it, and Slate Quarries have been found in
the bids in different parts, though not hitherto very ex-
tmsive'y wrought.

There is also strong reason to believe that in one dis-
trict of it, extending from the Burn of Gynag, at the vil•
lage of Kingussie, to the Burn of Tighnacaintb, there are
veins of lead ore, specimens haring been dug up by an ex-
perienced mineralogist some years ago.
The Estate forms one of the finest shooting tracts in
Scotland, there being throughout its whole extent an un-
common abundance of game. Grouse and ptarmigan
are plentiful ; the forests of Gaic and Druinuachter are
full of red deer; and wild ducks, snipes, and plover are
numerous in the marshes and fenny lands along the
river. There are several lakes and pieces of water in
the dishier, abounding with trout of various kinds, char,
and p;ke ; and although at a great distance from the
sea, salmon find their way up the Spey in the early part
of the year, and may be caught, by the rod throughout the
season.

This Estate, tbererore, may be considered either as a
valuable investment of [money to a capitalist, or as a pe-
culiarly desirable purchase for a sportsman.
Should the lordship not be sold as a whole, it will af-
terwards be divided into the. following Lots, for the ac-
commodation of intending purchasers :
Lot Ist, Commencing at the march of Lochaber, and
lying on both sides of the River Spey, comprehends the
following FARMS, vis. :—Moy and Kyleross, Garvamore,
Garvabeg and Shirrabeg, Shirratnore, Dalchully and Tur-
fadown, with Kylarachel and Cratbycroy, to the Burn of

with the grazing on the north side of Loch Eric. The
present rental is 967/.

Mashie, comprehends the following FARMS and GRAZ-
INGS, vis.—Strathmashie, Druimnoird and Mill, Blar-

The present rental is 10251. 10s..
Note.—The above three lots are in the parish of Lao.-
gan, except the farm of -Bealidpior, Which is in the parish

Lot 4th, Comprehends from the Burn of Strone to the
march with Belville, at the Burn of Tighnacaimb ; the
FARMS and GRAZINGS are, Ballaehroan, Pitmaieand
Inn, Ardbroilachd, Village and Lands of Kingussie, Gar-
roliue, Boatman's Croft, Meal Mill ofKingussie, Breackary,
Kerroumeannach, and Laggan of Kingussie. The present
rental, including the I:u-duties of the village, is 9101. 11s.

with the forest of Gaic, lying en the south side of the
Spay; the FARMS and GRAZINGS are Druimgelavie,
Knappack, Ruthven and Crofts, Brae Ruthven and Mill,
Gordon-hall and Gaic. The present rental is 5451.
Note.—The above two lots are in the parish of Kin-
gussie.

Lot 6th, Comprehends the following LANDS lying be-
twixt the marches of Dunachton on the west, and Dalcaddie
on th,:ist, and on the north side of the river Spey, in the
parish o.Alvie, viz. : —Pitichiren, Pitourie, and Dullifour.
The present rental is 2561.
Also to be SOLD, the ESTATE and BARONY of
KINCARDINE, lying in the united parishes of Kincardine
and Abernethy, and county of Inverness, and consisting of
upwards of 12,000 Scots Acres.

This is a peculiarly desirable purchase for a sportsman,
Glenmor, with Lock MorHob, which are embosomed with-
in its hills, affording facilities for shooting and fishing
that are not often to be found in the Highlands of Scot-
land. The highest range of the Grampian Hills bounds
it on the south and east, Strathspey on the north, and the
romantic scenery of Rothiemurcus on the west.

The forest of fir wood that formerly grew in the Glen,
was of the largest dimensions, and of the finest quality
that ever was seen in the island, and was sold to-an Eng-
lish Company about fifty years ago for a sum of 10,0001.
Having been all long since cut down, the ground is again
replanting itself, and at present there is a very fine ap-
pearancellihriving natural young wood nearly of the
same extefirZi formerly, and which, in progress of years,
will become of great value. The lands and grazings are
rented low, amounting only to the sum of 3981. lOs. but
the investment of capital here is to be looked to less as pro-
ducing immediate income than future advantage. The
search for precious stones in hills so far-famed and well
known as the Cairngorm, holds out no visionary induce-
ment to a purchaser for. attempting to turn this to even-
tual profit, by a- certain expenditure at first, conducted on
scientific principles; and the woods, as they advance, will
give a yearly return from their thinnings, independent of
the produce of the land.and their ultimate worth. -
The public and parochial 'burdens are moderate, the
teinds are valued and exhausted, and the valuation in the
cess-book affords a Freehold Qualification in the county.
Fafther particulars may be learned by application to
Wm. Paul and L. Mackersy, accountants, Howe-street,
Edinburgh; to Spottiswoode and Robertson, solicitors,
Great George-street, Westminster ; Alexander Shepperd,
solicitor in Inverness; H. and C. Lumsden, advocates in
Aberdeen ; or to John Morison, W. S., Abercromby-place,
Edinburgh, in whose bands are the title-deeds.
