(ember 20.

" The whole book is an agreeable miscellany of tales,
which will profitably beguile a weary hour, exciting happy
feelings, and leaving no unpleasing reminiscences behind."
—Morning Advertiser.

" A peculiar and somewhat affecting tone of pathos runs
through some of them ; while a subdued raillery, combined
with no small insight into huruannature, is apparent, and
highly amusing in others."—Age.

VALUABLE ESTATE, WITH DESIRABLE RESI-
DENCE IN ROXBURGHSHIRE,
FOR SALE,
Upset Price greatly Reduced.

There will be exposed to Sale by Public Roup, within
the Royal Exchange Coffeehouse, Edinburgh, on Win-
NESDAY the 10th of June, 1829, at Two o'clock

afternoon,
THE LANDS and ESTATE of LID-
DAL-BANK, belonging to the sequestrated estate
of Walter Armstrong, merchant in Newcastleton, includ-
ing the Farms of Lawaton, Greene, and Langraw,
in the parish of Castleton, and county of Roxburgh, And
computed to contain little short of 1109 Imperial Acres.
The Pasture Lands are well known to feed a superior
stock, and set readily. The Mansion-house of Liddalbank
(which was built by William Oliver, Esq. of Dinlabyre,
late Sheriff of the county, the former proprietor, for his
own residence) is a modern, handsome, and commodious
building, beautifully situated on a lawn and on the banks
of the Liddel, and commanding one of the most picturesque
views in the south of Scotland.

It is of imposing appearance and in excellent repair,
distant about 10 miles from Langholm, 10 from Long-
town, about 18 from Carlisle, and the turnpike road from
Liddesdale to Carlisle runs through the Estate.
The Gardens, which extend close to the margin of the
river, have a considerable extent of Hued wall, and are well
stocked with fruit trees ; and there are suitable offices.
The Plantations on the Estate are of some extent and
thriving. A considerable revenue has been derived, for
some years past, from a Colliery on the Estate, which is
still worked to advantage ; and the lands contain abundance
of limestone.

The Estate being almost completely surrounded by the
Duke of Buccleuch's preserves is peculiarly favourable for
game of all kinds, hares, partridges, woodcock, and hlack
game ; and the Liddel, which is an excellent fishing stream,
forms the southern boundary of the Estate for two or three
miles. The public burdens are moderate, and there is an
heritable right to the teinds, which were valued in 1774,
at an inconsiderable sum. A large proportion of the price
may be allowed to lie upon the security of the lands at four
per cent. if wished.

The lands will be exposed at the upset price of 26,000/.,
being upwards of 1,200/. less than the estimated value
upon a recent survey by Mr. Thomas Lawrie, Land Va-
luator, Edinburgh, and less than twenty-five years' pur-
chase ; and if not sold together, they will then be exposed
in the three following lots, via.:—
Lot Ist, LIDDALBANK, with the Mansion-house and
Parks, and the Farm of Langraw, presently occupied by
Mr. John Scott, and computed to contain 156 Imperial
acres or thereby, at the upset price of 6,300/.
Lot 2d, Will consist of the FAR:II of GREENA, as
presently possessed by Mr. James Wilson, with the ad-
dition of a part of Lawston, estimated at about 50 acres,
in all about 230 acres..—Upset price 5,000/.
Lot 3d, Will consist of the FARM of LAWSTON,
presently possessed by Mr. William Graham, excepting
that part laid into Lot 2d. This lot contains about 720
acres.—Upset price 14,7001.
Mr. James Wilson, tenant at Greena, will sliew the
lands ; and application may be made to Mr. John Elliot,
writer, Hawick, Trustee; Messrs. Tweedie and Graham,
W.S. ; or to Robert White, W.S, 42, Great King-street,
Edinburgh, in whose bands the Title-deeds may be seen.
Edinburgh, 26th March, 1829.

The Duke of DEVONSHIRE left town on
Friday, for his seat at Chatsworth, Derbyshire. The Earl
and Countess of CAkRLISLE have left town for the seat of
the Noblf.Duke at Chiswick.
A ple, caught last week in Loch Leven, has
been exhibited for sale in our market which measured,
344 inches in length, by 241- inches round the shoulders,
and weighed 301bs.— Caledonian Mercury.

Some of the migratory birds approach much
nearer to London than is generally imagined. The
cuckoo and wood-pigeon are heard occasionally in Ken-
sington-gardens. The nightingale approaches also much
nearer to London than has been commonly supposed. I
heard it in melodious song at seven o'clock in the morning,
in the wood near Hornsey-wood-house, May 10, 1826,
which is, I believe, the nearest approach to St. Paul's it
has been for some time known to make. It is also heard
at Hackney and Mile-end. I have also heard it regularly
for some years past in a garden near the turnpike-gate on
the road leading from London to Greenwich, a short dis-
tance from the third mile-stone from London-bridge.
This charming bird may also be heard, during the season,
in Greenwich Park, particularly in the gardens adjoining
Montagu-house ; but never, I believe, on its lofty trees.
The nightingale prefers copses and bushes to trees;
I the cuckoo, on the contrary, prefers bees, and of
these the elm, from which it most probably obtains its
food. The nightingale is also common at Lee and Lewis-
ham, Forest-hill, Sydenham, and Penae-wood ; in all
these places, except Hackney and Mile-end,l have myselfoften heard it, and in the day-time. Those wbo are par-
tial to the singing of bilds generally, will find the morn-
ing, from four to nine o'clock, the most favorable time for
'bearing them..—Jennii/ges Ornithologia. •
