in the month of June next, the following valuable PRO-
PERTY :

Lot 1. The MANOR FARM, situated in the parish of
Chidham, three miles from Emsworth, five from Chichester
and Havant, twelve from Portsmouth, and fourteen only from
the Fareham Railway station. The Residence, the site of
which is dry and healthy, is, of a gentlemanly character, in
excellent repair, and contains entrance hall, spacious
dining, drawing, and morning rooms, domestic offices,
with numerous bed-rooms of considerable dimensions,
It is approached by a carriage-drive and lawn, pleasantly varied
with evergreens and flowering; shrub 3. The gardens, the walls
of which are clothed with choice fruit-trees, are very produc-
tive. This division of the Estate includes about 400 acres of
arable, upland pasture, and marsh, with about 17 acres of wood
land. The agricultural buildings are on a scale duly propor-
tioned to the extent of the Estate ; the suface soil is composed
of a friable vegetable loam, several feet in depth, and rests on a
marl substratum ; it is therefore sound and powerful in the ex-
treme, and adapted to the growth of every description of white
straw and green crops ; turnips are fed off by folding ; the lands
are so genial and fertileas to resist the generally hurtful effects of
wet or dry seasons—thus the plants of wheat, beans, and peas of
the late wet and generally defective season, are full and vigo-
rous. The marshes and other green lands have never engen-
dered the rot in sheep, or other diseases incident to cattle on
unsound surfaces. This part of the estate is bounded by a
creek, which empties itself into the Chichester Harbour. Ma-
nure and produce are shipped from the banks and hardway
without the expense of wharfing, and the waters of this chan-
nel deposit a large supply of sea-weed, exceedingl► fertilising
as manure, which is at present disposed of on advantageous
terms for the dressing of those lands which require it.
Lot 2. The great tithes extending over the Manor Farm,
held on Lease from the Dean and Chapter of Chichester, for
three lives, aged respectively 13, 50 and 70 years.
Lot 3. A de3irable and compact Freehold Estate, situated in•
the parish of Chidham, and within two mile; of Lot 1, consist-
ing of ninety acres of arable, pasture, and about five acres of plan-
tation land of nearly a similar description to the Manor Farm.
There is a large double cottage (which by a moderate outlay
might be converted into a farm-house), and there are also con-
venient agricultural buildings.
Lot 4. The great tithes on the last mentioned farm, held the
same as Lot 2.

The parochial rates on the entire property are very mode-
rate, amounting to 321. per annum only. Each Farm is within
a ring fence, and distinguished for its neatly clipped quick-
fences and high cultivation, and occupied by Messrs. George
and Edward Wyatt. There is excellent Shooting on the
Estate, and the country is regularly hunted by Colonel Wynd-
ham's and other fox-bounds. There is a powerful Water Corn
Mill within 11 mile of the Estate, and 16 others within a
range of 5 miles. These contribute, with good roads, to con-
stitute Chichester one of the best markets in the kingdom.
The above description is the result of a careful survey of
the property by Mr. Simpson, and he fearlessly courts the in-
vestigation of practical agriculturists as the test of the accuracy
of his statements. He avoids that fiction and puffing in ad-
vertisements, which would seem to imply that all persons are
fools who desire to investtheircapital in landed or other estates.
Particulars are in preparation, and may be obtained on
application to George Wyatt, Esq., Chidham ; William Duke,
Esq., Solicitor, Arundel; Mr. Edward Fuller, Surveyor, Chi-
chester ; and to Mr. W. W. Simpson, IS. Bucklersbury.

Extensive and Valuable FEE-SIMPLE ESTATES, within
about Seven Miles of the City of Limerick, and midway
between Askeaton and Adair.

MR. N. IV. SIMPSON has received directions
from the Noble Proprietor to SELL by AUCTION, at
the Commercial-buildings, Dublin, on TUESDAY, May 31,
and two following days, at One o'clock in the Afternoon each
day, in Forty-eight Lots (unless acceptable offers be made for
'the entire property, or portions thereof, in the interval),
Valuable ESTATES, comprising altogether 7,294 Statute
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 6,8351. 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
peid, and the best proof of their being low is, that when
any of the tenants are desirous of disposing of their holdings
'an event of very rare occurrence), they readily obtain for the
Goodwill
or interest therein a sum varying from 151. to 201.
per Irish acre. Mr. W. W. Simpson has in this, as in every
other instance, carefully 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 judge for themselves. Mr. Simpson,
at the same time, fearless of contradiction, ventures to assert,
from the result of persopal survey and valuation, that an estate
of such value, reversionary interest, and capabilities, is very
rarely the subject of public competition, taking even the wide
range of the United Kingdom.
Particulars, with Plans annexed, may be had of Francis
Berry, Esq., Tullamore; Thomas Sterling Berry, Esq.,
Hume-street, Dublin; Messrs. Manning and Dalston, solici-
tors, Hertford-street, May-fail ;at the place of sale ; and of

port, in the county of Mayo. Also the Foxford Estate,
consisting of the lands of Cloonmong, Cregnafilla, Parkroe,
Toonmore, KnockFascon, and Derrymea, desirably situate
within six miles of Castlebar, and only sixteen from the flou-
rishing sea-port town of Ballina. The estates are surrounded
by excellent roads, and contain altogether 5,865 statute acres,
of which 4,806 acres are fertile arable and pasture land, and
the remainder valuable bog and reclaimable mountain. The
estates are occupied by a highly-respectable tenantry, and
the present rental amounts to 1,8101. per annum, which will
be considerably increased on the falling in of an old lease, and
may be further augmented by a judicious outlay in reclamation
and improvements, which might be effected with great facility
and at an inconsiderable expense, there being a superabundance
of limestone on the estates, which is peculiarly applicable to the
purpose.
Particulars may be had at the place of sale ; of Messrs.
Cromie, Hollymount; of Messrs. Nolan, Inns Quay, Dublin;
and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury, London.

KENT.— An unrivalled FREEHOLD INVESTMENT.
The entire ISLAND of ELMLEY, containing nearly 3,000
ACRES, about a mile and a half from the London-road, and
only two miles from Sittingbourne.
MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received directions
from the Proprietor, to SELL BY AUCTION, at the
Mart, London, in the month of June neat,

The ENTIRE ISLAND of ELMLEY, comprising 2,300
Acres of old fresh marsh, and 290 Acres of marsh, niclosed 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 au ample supply of fresh water in all seasons, there being
10 pure ,springs on the island ; such, also, is the soundness of
these lands, 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 Iv 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 130/. per annum, which is the best test
of cheap security. The buildings on the island consist of cot-
tages for herdsmen, cattle sheds, stabling, &c. ; these, with the
gates and fences, are kept in•repair at the joint expense of
landlord and tenant ; the average outlay to the landlord does,
not exceed 30/. per annum. The parochial rates are of insig-
nificant amount. There is but one pauper who at the pre-
sent time receives 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 tillaged estates, be most advanta-
geously parcelled out in eel tain proportions with the farms,
which are deficient in green laud, and the rental of this island,
as well as those of the upland estates, would thus be greatly
augmented. 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 are in preparation, and may shortly be
had of Messrs. Bridges and Mason, Solicitors, Red Lion-
square; of Richard •Bathurst, Esq., Solicitor, and Agent to
the Estate, Faversham ; and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18,
Bucklerabury, London.
