trilling parcels sold, however, have been at rates in favour of

and Green Tea ; and although the merchants were disposed to
realize, still the trade could not be induccd-to take more than
their immediate wants required, at a reduction on former rates

THE PUREST TASTE OF ELIZABETH

is most conspicuous; the balconies and the verandah are in a sin-
gularly good taste; indeed the modern school will hail it as a
model whereon to improve the rising generation ; it is, beside, one
solid mass of strength and durability, mixed up with splendid
taste.. The windows are of painted glass, the floors and woodwork
principally of solid carved oak. It is

A SINGULARLY ELEGANT LITTLE BIJOU,
one of a character to suit a moderate-sized family; but it is more
distinctly

MAISON DE BACHELIER. •
The grounds may be improved by a little more planting, and the
gardens will be better stocked next season ; but the villa is perfect,
and very nearly completed for instant occupation—the oak furni.
ture prevailing throughout.

Mr. Robins feels an irresistible impulse to call the attention of
the elite in good taste to this delightful toy. It is two miles and a
half from Windsor, and two from the Great Western Station.

them they were- told to go to a certain place.
and that there they would get four sovereigns for it.
He thought ho had shown, at least, that there were
grounds enough for bringing in this Bill. He had
shown that two hundred voters had been grossly
and -systematically bribed during; the last ele:!-
tion. It was utterly impossible that two can-
didates could have arrived on the eve of the election,
and have found men so perfectly organised as the voters
of Sudbury were, ready to go up to the poll next morning
in batches of eight and ten, the leaders returning to
take up other bodies of the same kind. Did the House
suppose that this vi as a recent occurrence in the borough
of Sudbnry, or one of a novel character ? At the
election of 1780, the grossest bribery was alleged;
but the bribery of that, period was curried on in the
darkness of night, but at present it was not even so con-
cealed. He would also ask the House to look at the
evidence given before the Commissioners ap-
pointed to inquire into the condition of the
hand-loom weavers of Sudbury, in 1837, in
which evidence was given, at a time and under cir-
cumstances more favourable for ascertaining the state of
the town, than the inquiry before an Election Committee.

THE WADDINGTON CASTLE ESTATE and DEMESNE,

MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed by the
Representatives of Mr. Place, deceased, to OFFER to
PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, on

THURSDAY, June 16, the well-known FREEHOLD ESTATE,
called WADDINGTON CASTLE,

RAILWAY, FOUR HOURS AND A HALF'S RIDE

and only three miles from the kennel ; it has been recently occu.
pied by THE EARL OF HILLSBOROUGH.
The property has long acquired a considerable tame in its own
vicinity. It is one of the most compact and eligible properties
within the county.

THE CASTLE HAS BEEN COMPLETED BY MR LUGAR,
'an artist possessing a perfect knowledge of

GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE.

It is adorned by castellated towers, full of accommodation, and
quite competent to everything a respectable family can desire. The
lodge entrance is vis-a-vis the park entree, and they both display
great taste. The castle is quite embosomed by the full-grown plan-
tations and park walks extending to the river, which, for more than
a mile, is a boundary to the estate; and

THE EXCLUSIVE FISHING 'IN THIS RIVER
to a great extent is among the many agremens appertaining to this
desirable investment. There are
TWO CAPITAL DAIRY FARMS
connected with it, close by, within a ring fence, And around the
castle are eighty acres of land so rich that the best bullocks are con.
stantly made fat upon it.

THE BEAUTEOUS VALE BELOW

is so picturesque, so varied, and so extensive, as to puzzle the feeble
powers of the writer to describe it faithfully, without encountering;
the charge of colouring the landscape too highly. It may be said
in great truth, throughout England, there is nothing to surpass it;
the most fastidious would find it difficult to improve even in their
mind's eye the panorama that is presented; the river with its
moving scenery appeal, like

A SPLENDIU LAKE TO ADORN THE LOVELY N' ALLEY,
and is a valuable auxiliary to the Grave; the views are of such
extent as may be imagined by bringing within sight the massive
pile of Windsor Castle, after passing over a vale of singular
richness and variety; and there are ornamental waters dispers-
edly placed throughout the domain, to diversify and ornament the
landscape. The kitchen gardens are walled and plentifully sup-
plied. But it is time to recur to the Mansion : it is a solid
structure, erected with a view to durability ; it is one full of com-
fort and convenience ; there is, in fact, no lack of anything that a
gentleman of fortune or a first-rate merchant can desire, who re-
tires from his daily professional gains to enjoy the quiet repose of
the Grove; and there is a conservatory, to find amusement dur-
ing his absence to a fair hostess. The property extends to about

THE POST-OFFICE.

This building is also among those destroyed. The Portu-
guese Jews who came to the city in 1618 were the first who im-
proved this part of the Goveroment administration, and were
the first who caused the establishment of the Imperial Post at
Ilamburgh.
THE BOURSE, OR EXCHANGE.

The present Bourse, as we find in the " flistoire de Ham-
bourg,' was begun to be built in the same year that a comet
appeared to the inhabitants of the town : according to an old'
Hamburgh chronicler. It was constructed anew in a spot con-
tiguous to the Senate-house ; the merchants had theretofore
met in the street, and in an uncovered place, but in 1577 the
community of cloth-merchants thought fit to construct another,
better fitted for their transactions. This, in 1669, was again
enlarged, and existed as it was to be seen till within the last
week.

THE HOP DUTY AND THE KENTISH FARMERS.—
The Kentish hop-growers may be satisfied, we think,
with a duty of 41. 10s., or 90s. per cwt. on hops, which
Sir R. Peel announced last night. This is, we believe,
considerably above the average price, duty included, at
which they sell their hops. If the foreigner, therefore,
could grow and import hops for nothing, he could
not undersell the Kentish hop-growers. The re-
duction of the duty will bare the effect of discouraging
unfounded hopes, and restrain the cultivation of hops
within due limits. People will not expect to make for-
tunes, and so they will be prudent.

SIR R. PELL'S MASQUERADE.

We understand that, in the event of his scheme of the
General Charity Sermon failing, it is Sir Robert Peel's
intention to get up a Masquerade, on a magnificent scale,
at Covent-garden Theatre, the proceeds of which are to
be devoted to the benefit of the starving Operatives in
the manufacturing districts. The scheme is generally
approved of at the Clubs, and we ',earn that the follow-

DUELLING.

(From a New York Paper.)
Midshipman Culp, an interesting young man, and
promising officer, in the Texan Navy, was shot in
duel at New Orleans, a few days since. His death,
and the circumstances attending it, seem to have pro-
duced a great sensation in that city. The following
paper was found upon his person after the duel had
taken place:

THOUGHTS BEFORE FIGHTING A D UEL.—Can any one
sit down and cooly, and calmly think on death, with-
out a thrill vibrating every nerve ? To think that
only a few, very few moments may elapse before his
immortal soul will be winging its flight to worlds un-
known, and knows not whether it will take its
place amidst a bright throng of angels, or drag its
weary way to the dark and fiery abyss prepared for
such as I! My God.! Such thoughts are enough
to rack the soul and make the stoutest nerves
small? To bring the haughty and proud to their
knees and in humble penitence and supplication ask
forgiveness of the God who made them! lam mo-
rally and religiously opposed to duelling ! It does
not prove that one is a gentleman or a brave man,
neither does it give satisfaction of an insult; for to t
ceive an insult and a ball also, is very poor satisfaction
to a man of feeling and of honour. Almost any man
can raise physical courage enough to fight a duel,
but few, alas ! too few, are possessed of moral cou-
rage sufficient to stein the tide of public scorn, and
walk erect through the myriads of hisses spit out
by those who are too low in the scale of virtue
and morality to respect it in any shape. I trust, and
pray, that the public will not condemn the course that
I have pursued. There are situations, times, and oc-
casions, when men must act with boldness and firm-
ness to command respect from those with whom they
are thrown. Into such a one lam thrown, and I sin-
cerely trust that God will forgive me for the course
that I have pursued. FIELDING R. CULP.

WOOL MARKETS.

There has been a slight improvement in the inquiry
for the best English Down Hoggits since our last
report, but no better prices have been realised. The
foreign wocil trade still continues extremely inanimate,
at almost nominal quotations. This heaviness in the
demand may, in some measure, be attributed to the
large quantities advertised for public auction. The
sales will commence on Thursday next, and the quan-
tity already advertised •amounts to 10,950 packages.
The imports have been liberal, viz., 2,744 packages,
derived as follows :-363 bales from Hamburgh ; 47
do. from Mogadore ; 52 from Malta; 38 from Bom-
bay ; 1,010; from Sydney ; 223 from Algoa Bay ; 69
from the Cape ; 128 from Seville ; 824 from Odessa.
POTATO MARKETS. . _

The Borough and Spitalfields markets have been
tolerably, but not to say very heavily, supplied with
potatoes during the past week. The best samples
have been rather more in demand, at full prices ; but
the middling and inferior kinds have been much ne-
glected. About 20 tons of Dutch and French pota-
toes have been on offer, but they have sold at only
about 30s per ton. Scotch reds, 45s to 555; York
