FOREST OF VILLAS,

of the mcst picturesque class, with lovely grounds, and each seem-
ing to contend for the ascendancy in public opinion. These appear
all to be embosomcd in the rich, the luxuriant prospect of the
woodland scenery, and the enchanting valley that separates it from
the town ; but it is in vain to do it justice, it must be seen to be
appreciated. There are about
FOURTEEN ACRES OF PARRISH GROUNDS,
ALL RICH FREEHOLD LAND,
hroughout which meanders
A NEVER-FAILING TROUT STREAM.

The sea road from Dawlish to Brixham, unrivalled for itsbeauty
throughout England, is in communication with this property; in
tine, it may be fearlessly asserted, that it is one of the prettiest and
most classical habitations that can be conceived.

Hunt, of 224,Regent-street i--tt It will be recollected that
a lad named Pearson, one of the persons who witnessed
the treasonable attempt upon the Queen's life on the
Sunday afternoon, was afflicted with so inveterate a
habit of stammering, as to be unable even to give an
alarm. He has, we are informed, by means of a new
process of cure, obtained the power of perfect articula-

intelligible, even when not excited, having entirely

the Serpentine, when he heard the cry of " Boat,
boat !" and on looking in the direction of the cry he SSW a
man struggling in the water near the second arch. The boat
came in about four minutes, but the man sank before
