A RICH PADDOCK

Of Two Acres, inclosed by park paling, with a consider-
able frontage to the high London road. The neighbour-
hood has always been remarked for the social qualities of
its inhabitants, and there is a constant communication
with the metropolis by means of coaches at all convenient
time of the day, and is therefore suggested as a most com-
fortable retreat for a retiring tradesman, whose pretensions
do not lead him to soar too high. It is of necessity to be
sold without reservation.

stead ; the Auction Mart ; and of Mr. George Robins,

being instructed to announce that he will SELL
by AUCTION, at the Matt in London, on THURSDAY,
the 11th of June, at Twelve o'clock, and in ONE LOT,
A SINGULARLY FINE FREEHOLD INVEST-
MENT FOR CAPITAL,

comb!nin3 such an Infinity of advantages as are rarely con-
gregated in one Property, and it therefore necessarily fol-
lows that the limit of an announcement must be confined to
a brief summary of the leading features, which it is confi-
dently believed will be more than sufficient to awaken the
early attention of large Capitalists to an Investment which,
for- its importance atri local advantages, has seldom (if
ever) been offered to public competition; it comprehends
THE DEBDEN HALL ESTATE,

WITH A PARK AND DOMAIN OF 3,850 i ACRES.

The Residence puts forth very etrong claims to public
attention, in as much as, without being of a very pretend-
ing character, it combines in its exterior a Chaste and
elegant Design, while its interior accommodation pre-
tents a plentiful supply of every thing that is essential to
the comfortable abode of a Family of high standing and
respectability. The Grounds that environ this delightful
retreat ate formed in accordance with the best taste. The
Plantation-walks. and Shrubberies luxuriantly disposed,
are adorned by an infinity of the most choice American
Plants and Evergreen•, while the Flowering Shrubs are
dispersing their sweet perfume in every direction. The
Kitchen Gardens, encompassed by lofty walls, are clothed
with the choicest Trees, in an highly luxuriant state.

EXETER 'CHANGE, STRAND.

The valuable Exhibition of every description of Miscella-

neous Property for absolute Sale.

R. GEORGE ROBINS begs to intimate
to the Public, that in consequence of this Ancient
and Respectable Repository being doomed (by means of the
provisions of an Act of Parliament for Improving the
Strand) to be immediately "rased to the ground," Mr.
Clarke, the Proprietor of Exeter 'Change, has directed him
TO SELL BY PUBLIC AUCTION,

AND WITHOUT THE LEAST RESERVE,
On WEDNESDAY next, the 22d day of April, and Fourteen
following days, (Sundays excepted) at Twelve o'clock, the
unusually Extensive and Valuable Stock which for so many
years has been the subject of admiration and astonish-
tnent to the multitudinous persons who have so frequently
congregated at
THE ANCIENT and RESPECTABLE ESTABLISH-
MENT of EXETER 'CHANGE.

It has b?en proverbial for a lengthened period, and was the
pride of the late respected anti present proprietor, that
the variety in this exhibition (infinitely surpassing any
other in this great metropolis) was so great, that it was
hardly possible to inquire for any thing, either useful or
ornamental, that could not be on the instant provided there.
The immense wealth which was the necessary consequence
of such an extensive trade is mainly to be attributed to
the proprietor's adopting from the commencement the good
(but old fashioned) notion of having every thing of the
best description. The following is necessarily a brief out-
line of the very great variety and excellence which will be
found conspicuous in this collection.

In America, the exhibition of one of Mr. West's Pic-
tures,—The Healing of the Infirm in the Temple,—(which
he presented to the Hospital of Philadelphia gratuitously),
produced a sum sufficient to perpetuate the maintenance of
twenty-five Pensioners, besides 1,800 guineas to build
a room to receive it. To conclude, Sir Thomas Law-
rence, at the distribution of Prizes to the Students of
the Royal Academy, eulogized the late venerable Pre-
sident thus :—" His works were, not only superior to
any former productions of English art, but far surpass-
ing contemporary merit on the Continent—were un-
quailed at any period below the School of the Ca-
racci—anel he gained celebrity at the close of his life, far
greater than he had ever before enjoyed, and he became
(almost to forgetfulness of deceased greatness) the one po-
pular painter of his country.

The great renown acquired by this distinguished orna-

of going into a very long detail : this is fortunate, inas-
much as the appalling difficulty of doing strict justice
would weaken the humble effort, and thus render more im-
perfect a sketch, that pretends not to give more than a very
faint outline of the brilliant picture, to which a much more
talented man would feel himself incompetent to do adequate
justice. In viewing this

SMITHFIELD MARKET.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The public attention ought to be directed to a
Bill now before Parliament, by which the Corpora-
tion of London proposes to enlarge the present mar-
ket at Smithfield, by the addition of three roods of
land (one rood of which must necessarily be con-
sumed in approaches, &c.), for which accommoda-
tion the Corporation requires the following increase
of tolls, namely, for every beast, which now pays
one peony, the sum of sevenpence ) and for every
score of sheep, which now pays twopence; tenpence.
Mr. Dean's evidence before a former Committee of
the House of Commons states the present profits to
the city, after deducting the expellee of collecting,
to be 2,106/. 13s. 3d.; and the present tolls, after
the expense of collecting, to be 071/. 159. Id. IVlul-
- the present product by the proposed increase,
and admire the liberality of the Corporation of Lon-
don !!! Will the landowners and graziers through-
out England, and the consumers of anirt►al food
bought at Smithfield, patiently submit to this ?
Will any man of common sense say that an addition
of half an acre can materially tend to remove the loss
now sustained by butchers and graziers owing to
the present crowded state of the market, and the
consequent cruelty practised on the animals ? As a
further boon, the Corporation proposes to stop up
the present thoroughfare through the market for
hackney-Coaches and carts during market hours-
Will this diminish the present obstruction daily ex-•
perienced in the leading streets of London, or will
it tend to the better protection of the lives and limbs
of his Majesty's subjects, so long endangered merely
for the pecuniary benefit of the Corporation of
London ?
The Bill has already been read twice in the Com-
mons, and will pass through the Committee on the
28th instant, unless the people and their Represen-
tatives bestir themselves.
London, England, 1829-04-18

MR. WEST'S GALLERY

Should be left to the hazard and uncertainty of the ham-
mer; it was surely not appreciating too highly the English
taste and liberality to contemplate

THE BRITISH INSTITUTION AND
NATIONAL GALLERY

Becoming the depository of this entire Collection, and thus
transmit to posterity a proud record of what could be accom-
plished by an Englishman, and in that peculiar art which
had so long remained in its infancy. It was by the
generous devotion of his pencil to the noblest aim of his
profession, that first brought British Painting into direct
association with the Throne, and raised it into an object of
national importance in the mind of his Sovereign. It will
almost partake of the work of supererogation to state, that
until the year 1768, Historical Painting was in no wise
encouraged in England, and the immortal West encoun-
tered the trial in fear and trembling : how well be suc-
ceeded future generations will acknowledge,—and the pre-
sent will, it is believed, add their concurring testimony.--
For this proud testimonial of having raised the character
of English Historical Art, the public are mainly indebted
to the kind and fostering encouragement of his
LATE MAJESTY, GEORGE THE THIRD,

Who, in the singleness of his mind, and unbounded libe-
rality, commanded the late President to paint TWENTY-
TWO PICTURES, to adorn
THE ROYAL CHAPEL IN WINDSOR.
Our present Monarch was graciously pleased to restore to
Mr. West's family these precious gems; they include the
SUBLIME COMPOSITION,
MOSES ItECEIVING THE LAWS,
The universal Deluge, and the Crucifixion of Our Saviour.
The remaining ones are all appropriate for Altar Pieces.
It would fa: exceed the limit of an advertisement to men-,
tion separately all the Pictures : a very few will demon-
strate the treat which is in store for those who have nut
been so fortunate as to see them.

from a terrace walk, which comes in contact with the re-
freshing breeze from the water. The views are in accord-

OF MOUNT EDGECUMBE.
The intermediate space is occupied by the winding of the
River, which includes, to a great extent, the picturesque
scenery for which this envied retreat has so long been re•
markable, and the bridge in the opposite direction form-
ing a contrast, and giVing a variety which few can
aspire to. Of the pretensions of the Residence, it will
suffice to observe that it was for many years the favoured

DEATH ON THE PALE HORSE,

Representing the opening of the first five Seals : the effect
proposed to be excited by this Picture is the terribly sub-
lime, and its various modifications, until lost in the oppo-
site extremes of pity and horror,—a sentiment which
Painting had not, until then, attempted successfully to
awaken. This is indeed a chef d'oeuvre ; and the same
panegyric might be sPely pronounced on the remaining
150 Viftures. The space allotted for this purpose is,
however, insufficient, and this imperfect description will
end by intreating especial attention to the following :

It is, therefore, submitted by Mr. Robins with great confi-
dence to the attention of these who agree with him in be-
-1 eving that Land is the best and safest investment fur ca-
pital at all times, and now that the funded property af-
fords such a moderate return, with the probability of en
unfavourable reaction, it is placed beyond doubt that
the opportunity thus presented is by far the most en-
couraging that has ever been offered to public attention ;
there is a regular Market at Crowland, and an Annual
Fair, which contribute to increase the Rental. It will
be almost superfluous to remark, that the possession of
such an immense and. valuable territory must be very in-
fluential with a view to

Sir JAMES SCARLETT is to be the new
Attorney-General, but Sir NICIIOLAS TINDAL is not to
be again passed over. A negociation of two strings has
been opened with the Chief Baroa and Sir W. BEST, to
make room for the Solicitor-General in the Exchequer or
Common Pleas. Sir JAMES SCARLETT has been very
coy ; but, through the influence of Earl GREY and Lord-
MILTON, he has been prevailed upon to accept an apology
for his abrupt dismissal last year. Ministers would con-
descend to any thing rather than repeat at Cambridge the
experiment which they last tried at Oxford. No opposi-
tion, we suspect, will be offered to Mr. BANICES, after Sir
NICHOLAS TINDAL shall have made a vacancy.—Morning

SUSPICION OP POISON.

(From the Leeds Intelligencer.)
On Tuesday evening, a Coroner's Inquest was
held at the Swan with Two Necks Inn, Hunslet,
before RouErerßann,Esq., Coroner for this borough,
to inquire how John Birch came to his death.
Hannah Birch being sworn, said the deceased was
her husband, that for three or four months he had
had a notion that he had live toads in his stomach,
and that they croaked there. That having been
told that Line Dyke water would kill them, on
Tuesday last he went to a place near Selby, where
he drank a good deal of it, and brought a bottle
home with him. He drank a small quantity of it
on Friday morning. In the course of the day he
was recommended and applied to an individual
lately come to this town, (but whose name, under
present circumstances, we forbear to mention,) who
gave him a powder, which was said to be an emetic,
and a pot of electuary. He took the emetic on
Friday evening, and it operated so powerfully that
he vomited no less than ten times during that eve-
ning. On the following morning he took a part of
the electuary, and soon after began to purge and
vomit, which continued the whole of that day, all
Saturday night, until half-past two o'clock on Sun-
day, when he died, completely exhausted.
Thomas Chorley, Esq. sworn—l am a surgeon at
Leeds, and have known the deceased, John Birch,
upwards of 20 years. He came to the Leeds Infir-
mary on the 14th of February last, and was ad-
mitted into the house at the latter end of the same
month, when there
,was a vacancy. He remained
there about five weeks, and was under my care
during the whole of that time. He was discharged
at his own request on the 3d of April. He com-
plained of a sensation in his body, which he de-
scribed as containing living toads. I treated this as
a delusion. He would have submitted to any opera-
tion, and his continual solicitude was, that an open-
ing should be made in the abdomen to take them
away, but I considered him to be labouring under a
deranged state of the brain and nervous system.
The deceased was, as I before said, discharged from
the Infirmary at his own request and I heard no
more of him till Sunday evening, when his son
cane to inform me of his death. On Monday I
examined the body. I found all the abdominal vis-
cera to be in a healthy state. His death appears to
have been caused by some acrid substance taken
into the stomach, producing inflammation, and con-
sequently the symptoms which he laboured under
from the Saturday morning to the time of his death.
The Coroner said, it would be necessary, under
the circumstances, to continue the inquiry on some
future day, and the inquest was adjourned to Mon-
day next, at five o'clock.

CANTERBURY, Oct. 24.

The best samples of Wheat being mostly selected for
seed, and the remainder being of very inferior quality,
caused our market to be very dull, without any variation
in value, which way the same with all other kinds of
Grain. Our Hop buyers are very retired, and as yet but
few sales have been made, our wealthy growers not feel-
ing disposed to sell at the prices offered.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.

Mr. Justice PARK sat in the Bail Court for a
short time this morning, and joined Mr. Justice
BAILEY and Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE at half-past
ten. Mr. Justice BAILEY then informed the Bar that
Lord Tenterden would not sit to-day, and it was
generally understood that his Lordship was confined
from illness. Nothing of consequence came on to
be heard previous to our going to press.

PREROGATIVE COURT.
IN THE GOODS OF DIARY ANN COPELAND.

The deceased Mrs. Copeland died at Chigwell,
on the 10th November lust, leaving three children,
and property amounting to 1,5001. ; after her decease
a paper was found in a pocket-book belonging to the
deceased, marked " my last will;" it was in all re-
spects a formal document, and made an equal distri-
bution of the property amongst her children, but the
difficulty wus, that this paper was not dated, neither
was it signed or attested—therefore administration
could not be granted without consent of the Court.
The COURT, upon being informed by Dr. Lush-
irgton the parties were all agreed, directed letters
of administration to the eldest son of the deceased.

THE NEW YEAR.

(From R. Montgomery's Spirit of the Times.)
A Year bath vanished, and another Year
Is bore : what awful changes will arise,
What dark events lie hidden in the womb
Of Time, imi.gination cannot dream :
Ye Heavens! upon whose brow a stillness lies,
Deep as the silence of a thinking heart
In its most holy hour, the world hath changed,
But ye arc changeless; and your midnight race
Of starry watchers glance our glorious isle
Undimued, as when amid her firre•ts depths
The Savage roamed, and chanted to the moon.
0 England ! beautiful, and brave, and free,
With Ocean like a bulwark round thee thrown !
Thoughts of thy destiny awake the heart
To fearful wonder ; from the wildest state
Of darkness raised, and magnified by Heaven !
What though a troubled spirit walk the Earth,
And fancy hear the distant war-drums roll,
Long may thy sea-domes proudly ride the waves,
And o'er the world still reign the Island Queen ;
May each new year add glory to thy name,
And Time be vanquish'd, ere he sully thee !

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Seeing in the Papers the other day that a
certain old woman, in a certain place, was inclined
to seduce the ladies of this country from their duty,
I beg you will insert, in your valuable Journal, the
following article, which 1 copied from the " Oracle"
about 37 years ago :
" National Assembly, Oct. 25, 1791.

" A Deputation of female Citizens of the Section
of Luxembourg presented themselves. They re-
quired the Assembly to take into consideration the
numerous clandestine marriages and baptisms per-
formed by the unconstitutional Priests of the parish
of St. Sulpice.
" The President made answer thus—' Ladies—
nature destined you for the comfort and consolation
of man—your's is the care of maintaining domestic
harmony and propagating the human race—be
satisfied with your lot, and leave to men ,the task of
Government, and maintaining public order.'
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

insertion, but vas by some accident mislaid.]

DRURY-LANE THEATRE..

Miss PHILLirs appeared here last night for the first
time, as Isabella, in that striking drama, Measure for
Measure. She was more successful in this part than even
in her Imogen, beautiful and affecting as that personation
is, and gave full effect to the numerous beautiful speeches
in which her part abounds. The mode of pleading for her
brother's life, and the distrustful air of reluctance with
which she is led to believe the dishonourable intentions of
"Lord Angelo, the precise," were conceived and executed
in a style of the most consummate excellence. Altogether
she was eminently successful, and has greatly increased the
public impression of her powers. Mr. YOUNG'S Duke
possessed gravity and appropriate solemnity. His delivery
of its impressive poetry was worthy of him in his happiest
moments. In the character of Angelo, Mr. COOPER was
coldly and formally correct : more, far more, than what the
part warrants. There was, however, a considerable ap-
pearance of industry in his performance. The house was
well attended.

CHAMBERS V. WATERS.

This case was in the paper for to-day, but some
of the Counsel not being prepared, it was postponed
for a few days.

WALLIS V. LLOYD.

This was a eause instituted to obtain possession
of certain title deeds of an estate near Carmarthen.
The case possesses no feature of public interest, and
is likely to occupy the whole day.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

Mr. PEMBERTON—a gentleman who, we understand,
has gained considerable popularity on the Provincial
Boards, and whose merits as a public Lecturer on the
Belles Letters are, we are further informed, consider-
able—made his appearance at this theatre last night as Vir-
pinius, in KNOWLES'S well-known tragedy of that name.
His performance was highly creditable to his abilities, and
seemed modelled, but not servilely, on the acting of MA-
CREALT in the same part. His best scene, and the one
which was most generally applauded, was that where he
pleads before Appius; it was replete with energy, and
true to nature. In the last act there was a little too much
exaggeration, but this is a fault that can easily be remedied.
Mr. PEMBERTON was favourably received, and will, we
think, attain eminenee as a tragedian. His intellectual
powers of conception are unquestionably fine.

The Earl of Eldon was born in the year 1750.
His Lordship is now consequently in his 79th year. He
will be succeeded by his grandson, Lord Enconibe, who
was born December, 1805.

relations—all those who have a right to inhetit,b4
fortune, voted against me; his nephew, a Catholif
attorney, was one of the most active, arid, certaialp
b,yond any comparison, the most useful and, efficient
of the agents of Mr. Vesey The- Pari°
priest of the very town itself—Ennis—who is the
Dean of the diocese, arid is not only a polished plid
accomplished scholar, but a most pious and excol
plary divine, and a particular friend.of mine, not otillr
discountenanced my pretensions, but actually left 111°,
town during the entire election, because his
oilers to a man voted for me, totally regardless of al;
the influence in spirituals which lie possessed au
deserved.
I must close this my first epistle. Would I could
do any thing to enliven the dulness of that higotti
which now, in my humble opinion, disgraces and de'
grades this country !
Believe me, Sir Peter, that the day will soon
rive when the great majority of Protestants
concur in the conviction already entertained by till
great majority of Catholics—:hat human lases shoot°
be confined to the regulations of actions, and tbst
they should never attempt to controul opinions,
that human laws should punish crimes, but is in it'
self criminal when it attempts to punish creeds. Let
conscience be free, and truth will prevail.
Join with me in these sentiments, Sir Peter, oral
least meditate upon them, until 1 can take .up 01'5
subject in my second letter.—l am, in perfect go'
humour, Sir Peter, your obedient servant,
DANIEL O'CONNELL.

CONTEMPT OF COURT.

Mr. ROOT moved that a gentleman named James
Tate, who was then in Court, might be committed
to the Fleet for contempt in not putting in an answer
to a Bill filed against him.

'1 he VICE-CHANCELOR made the order for his
commitment.
- AND OTHERS, EXECUTORS OF PARKES V.
SUTTON AND FRENCH.

The plaintiff in this case was an executor of a gen-
tleman named Parkes, a celebrated chemist, and who
some years since published two very useful works,
one entitled " A Vocabulary of Chemical Terms,"
and the other " Chemical Catechism," with notes
and explanations. These works met with a great
sale, and in the life time of Mr. Parkes went through
eleven editions, the copy-right of which descended
to the plaintiffs, as executors under his will, arid they
a short time since ascertained that the defendants,
who are booksellers and publishers in Tottenham-
Court-road, were pirating these works. The present
application, therefore, was to restrain them from so
doing, and to prohibit any further sale.
Mr. HORNE, in support of the application, said,
the reason of his making it ex-parte was, to prevent
the defendants having an opportunity of disposing
of their stock on hand, which they would have done
if notice had been given. His Honour would see
that the work published by the defendant was not
an exact copy, but every page would show it was
a piracy. It professed to be edited by Mr. James
Forsyth, a surgeon, there was no practising surgeon of
that name, but the person who did edit it was a
short time since an inmate of Whitecross-street
Prison, and he should also move for an injunction
against him.
The VICE CHANCELLOR, after looking at the
different works, made the order for an injunction.
