The St. Domingo Mahogany comprises logs and curls of
the most approved dimensions and figure ; chiefly for tables
and veneers. The Cuba is for the most part of large size,
good colour, and roe, and from the best cutting districts of
the island. Two of the cargoes of Honduras Mahogany
comprise every variety of useful quality, and range from the
smallest size up to 10 tons weight in the log.
The Satin Wood is new, tolerably sound, with the best roe
and mottle in curl and log. Though some are 181 inches
deep, the logs are generally small in size.
The Havana Cedar is very fresh, sound, and well squared,
varying up to 28i- inches, and averaging 16 inches in depth.
The Pencil Cedar averages 8 inches, and ranges up to 181
inches square, and although some of the parcels are of mid-
dling quality, others are of the best and largest description of
wood.

The Rosewood, in sawn and split planks, is fresh, and of
good quality and figure. The Rio averages 3c 23, and the
Bahia, 3c 1 3, each plank.
Of the Lignumvitte, 26 tons are mostly from 5 to 7 inches
diameter, and 36 from 5 to 9 inches. The whole, choice
City St. Domingo.
The central situation and mode of business of this market,
have established it in the estimation and preference of the
trade ; but, the above selections of the more esteemed ship-
pers—instance, 942 logs and curls City Wood, merit, in a
more marked degree than any sale heretofore, the attendance
of all parties interested in Mahogany and other Cabinet and
Machinery Woods.
Catalogues will be ready for distribution on the Monday
before the sale.—Apply to
CHALONER and HOUGHTON, Brokers.

THE GLANBRANE ESTATE.—THE SALE POSI-
TIVELY FIXED FOR THE 22D OF AUGUST, AND
TO BE PEREMPTORY.
R. GEORGE ROBINS has just received the final
IV" instructions of the Trustees, acting under an IRRE-
VOCABLE power of Sale, to OFFER by PUBLIC COM-
PETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY,
the 22d of August, at Twelve o'clock, in ONE LOT,
THE GLANBRANE ESTATE AND DEER PARK,
near to the
MARKET TOWN OF LLANDOVERY,

in Carmarthenshire, South M'.ales. This valuable Property
is all Freehold, and, from its extent, may be accounted one of
THE LARGEST PRINCIPALITIES IN THE COUNTY,
indeed it is recognised as
THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF WALES.

In respect to the Mansion it may be well to observe that it
needs a considerable outlay in the shape of ornamental repair
and decoration. It is a stone edifice, and therefore needs
but little substantial aid. Its architectural form has always
been highly appreciated, and the situation cannot be too much
panegyrised—surrounded by a landscape of incomparable
beauty and extent, and screened from the cold by luxuriant
plantations. The Estate consists of
FIFTY-SEVEN FRREHOLD FARMS,
Two Water Corn Mills,
THE MANOR OF NEWCHURCH, AND
THE ADVOWSON AND NEXT PRESENTATION
to Llanwetyd, in the County of Brecon. There are
SEVEN HUNDRED ACRES OF WOOD LAND,
which are exceedingly ornamental, besides finding never-
ending enjoyment to a sportsman.

THE GIANBRANE RIVER,
celebrated for its trout fishing, intersects the property, and is
a great auxiliary in irrigating the
RICH AND VERDANT MEADOWS

IN THE VALLEY BELOW.
THE DOMAIN EXTENDS OVER A TERRITORY OF
TEN THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED ACRES,
with the turnpike road passing through it. There are besides,
in and near Llandovery,
TWO VILLA ABODES,
with ten residences, occupied by the principal tradespeople of
the town.

The present rental is obviously low, arising out of previous
circumstances that could not be controlled ; happily, all diffi-
culties have at length succumbed to the activity and energy
that has been brought to bear, and it may now be recom-
mended as free from doubt or hazard, and the most timid
may safely approach this sale.
THE ANNUAL RENT LAST YEAR

exceeded Three Thousand Three Hundred Pounds. It has
been accurately surveyed and valued this spring, and the
result is that a rental of

FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS A-YEAR
s placed beyond doubt. It may almost be called

EXTRA PAROCHIAL,
inasmuch as the poor-rate is quite nominal.
AN EAST INDIAN NABOB,
who is desirous of extending his influence, and
AIDING MATERIALLY HIS LEASE FOR LIFE,
will do well to make a searching inquiry into every fact con-
nected with this immense sale, and if he is ambitious of

A SEAT IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS,
and in his politics be inclined to support the Church and
State, he would assuredly append the dignity of M.P. to his
purchase.

Brecon ; Llandovery, Abergavenny, and Monmouth ; Plough,
Cheltenham ; White Hart, Bath ; Bush, Bristol ; Messrs.
Roy, Blunt, Duncan, and Johnson, solicitors, Lothbury ;

Offices, London.

VICTORIA HAT DEPOT.
ANOTHER PROOF OF COMPETITION.

BEST HAT THAT CAN BE MADE FOR EIGHTEEN
SHILLINGS AND SIXPENCE.
SAMUEL BIRT and CO., 60, Lord-street, Liverpool,
in again appearing before the Public, beg to return their
ifi sincere acknowledgments for e Patronage they have re-
ceived, and to remind them, at they were the first in this
' town to offer the very best ndon Hats for 20s. each.
S. 13. and Co., having perfected their arrangements for
manufacturing best Hats, now offer to the Public the best
that can be produced at Eighteen Shillings and Sixpence
each. It is not generally known, that the Hats hitherto
sold as London Hats are nearly all manufactured in Lanca-
shire, and sent up to London, from whence they come down
as London Hats, and are sold in this town at 265. each. S.
B. and Co. pledge themselves, that their Hats, at 18s. 6d.
each, will equal, if not exceed, in quality those hitherto sold
as London Hats at 265. No doubt, Haberdashers, Tailors,
and Dealers in Hats assert, that this cannot be afforded, but
,one trial will prove the fact beyond dispute. All other kinds
at a proportionate reduction. The best Silk Hats that can
be made, particularly recommended, warranted not to spot
or to be discoloured by sea air, only 6s. 9d. Best White
Hats that eau be made 4s. 6d. A great variety of Children's
Velvet and Cloth Caps.
