MORAL INFLUENCE OF THE WORK,

- -
The projectors of the " NATIONAL GALLERY" feel that
their contemplated enterprise involves deeper and nobler
considerations than may superficially present themselves.
It is scarcely possible that a work of such an extent, exe-
cuted with all the high refinements of art, should not assert
a great moral influence—an influence working for good ; and
tending at once to improve the mind, and elevate the taste,
of the people. In the " NATIONAL GALLERY" the English-
man will be continually reminded of the greatness, and of
the consequent value, of his country ; of her gigantic power
—her moral might her triumphs over rival nations.
He will read in the lives of Englishrnen, the irresistible force
of British valour—the calm, comprehensive, and determined
resistance to wrong—the advocacy of the most sacred rights
of our common nature—which form the basis of our national
character. All the ennobling sentiments that constitute the
lofty-minded soldier—the wise and generous statesman—the
patriot—and the philanthropist, will be felt and acknowledged
by our readers ; and thus, in the projected publication, every
Subscriber to the " NATIONAL GALLERY" Of THE WEEKLY
CHRONICLE will have the gratification of possessing at a tri-
fling cost the most perfect record of his Country's glory.

All persons desirous of receiving this work with regularity
and certainty, should immediately give their orders to the
various News Agents and Booksellers throughout the King-
dom; a precaution rendered indispensable from the impossi-
bility of making any arrangements, in so extensive an under-
taking, for the supply of casual subscribers.
To regular Subscribers of the WEEKLY CHRONICLE the
Gallery is presented GRATIS. To Non-Subscribers, the
price of one Portrait and Memoir will be .E 1 ls. 6d.—Se-
parate Portraits (Proofs) on India Paper, £2 2s.

IN THE NORTH RIDING OF YORKSHIRE.
ONE OF ITS LEADING FEATURES.
WITH A RENTAL OF FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS
A YEAR.
BESIDES MANORIAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES.
NO TITHE AND VERY LITTLE POOR-RATE.

MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to SELL by
PUBLIC AUCTION, at the Mart, in London, on
TUESDAY, the 4th day of June, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot,
AN EXCEEDINGLY IMPORTANT AND
VERY INFLUENTIAL FREEHOLD TERRITORY,
one that does not yield in its vast importance, the quality of
the soil, or respectability of the tenantry, to any contempo-
rary throughout the country.
THE FAMED WHITWELL AND RIBSTON ESTATES,
which Mr. Robins had the good fortune to sell,
may be proud to be contemporaneous with this first-rate in-
vestment.
THE NUNNINGTON, WEST NESS, AND STONE-
GRAVE ESTATES, INCLUDE
TWO THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED ACRES OF
LAND, ENTIRELY WITHIN A RING FENCE,
EXONERATED FROM TITHES,
AND A LOW POOR-RATE, WITH EXTENSIVE
MANORIAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES,
throughout a district where the Game is in great abundance.
THE WHOLE VILLAGE OF NUNNINGTON,
which is in the heart of the Estate, is included in this sale.
In this spot the principal farm-houses are placed, the whole
of the tenantry are by this means congregated together, living
in harmony and good fellowship, forming a little circle of
their own. The turmoil of politics does not intrude into
" Our Village," and incendiarism is a word unknown in the
vicinity.
NUNNINGTON HALL WAS THE
ANCIENT SEAT OF THE FAMILY.
The Structure is of Stone, and its Architectural form may
be safely opposed to much of the new light of the Artistes of
the preset day. A Nobleman may restore it to its pristine
state by an outlay which could not exceed £3,000 or £4,000.
The Gardens are extensive, and the ensemble appears seduc-
tive, with a view to incline a new possessor to give it all its
original consequence. Also
AN ELEGANT SPORTING RESIDENCE,
of recent creation, and corresponding offices, in the most
perfect order. It is beautifully sheltered by
A MAJESTIC GROVE OF TREES,
forming an avenue for half a mile, and the grounds around
it undulating most beautifully. Lots of Hounds hunt the
Country for many miles, while the
FAMED RIVERS RYE, RICKELL, and HOLBECK
intersect the lands, and in time of need are not a little influ-
ential in lending their occasional aid to the Meadow and
Pasture Land ? Salmon and Trout are in the greatest abun-
dance. The Farm Residences and all the Buildings are
erected in the most substantial manner, and the farm yards
are well sheltered.
The Quality of the Land cannot be surpassed by any
throughout
" HER MAJESTY'S DOMINIONS." •
Indeed, Mr. Robins will take upon himself the risk and
responsibility of borrowing a quotation most aptly fitted to
this occasion,
" Take it for all in all,
We ne'er shall look upon its like again."
The Rental and value of this renowned Property exceeds
FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR,
and the quality of the Soil is such that the Capitalist may
calculate upon the Full Rental being Paid without a murmur,
and the word abatement is not to be found in their vocabulary.
Indeed, it is more than probable that an Estate of equal Extent
and value in Yorkshire, may never appear again in the market.
Easingwold and Thirsk, Market Towns, are within dis-
tance ; Malton only eight miles_; and
THE CITY OF YORK,
and its famous Market, about 18 Miles.
LORDS FEVERSHAM AND CARLISLE,
DUNCOMBE PARK AND CASTLE HOWARD,
are in the neighbourhood. By the way, it had nearly escaped
the writer to point out the probability that the Proprietor of
Nunnington will be called upon to
REPRESENT THE MOST INFLUENTIAL OF THE

NEIGHBOURING BOROUGHS.
The several Farms may be viewed until the Sale. Mr.
Blacket, the respectable Steward, in Nunnington, will give
every facility to do so. Particulars may be had of him, with
a Lithographed Plan ; also at the Black Swan, and George
Hotel, York ; Royal Hotel, Leeds ; the Talbot, at Malton ;
the Fleece, at Thirsk ; John Humphries, Esq., Ripon ; of
Messrs. Capron, Weld, Dawson, and Brabant, Savile-place ;
the Auction Mart; and Mr. George Robins's Offices, London.
