FAMED LAKES,

within a short mile of the Castle and demesne, will delight
the amateurs in wild fowl shooting ; and those inclined to
salmon and trout fishing will find it to their hearts' content
in the River Levan. Such is an imperfect outline of a few
of the prominent attributes to which this famed property
puts in an irresistible claim. The difficult task, however, is
still in abeyance—to pourtray in suitable language
THE SURPASSING BEAUTY OF THE SPLENDID
SCENERY EMBRACING THE LOVELY LOCH
AND LOFTY BEN LOMOND

(the greatest featuresamid Scotland's never-ending splendour
and variety), is an undertaking to which the humble indivi-
dual intrusted with the conduct of this sale feels most acutely
how inadequate he is to the duty that has been imposed on
him. His chief relief, nay, " his main stay" (if he may be
permitted the observation), ariseses out of a reminiscence
that SCOTIA'S OWN BARD
found himself in the same dilemma. All those who have
not partaken of the good fortune to sojourn amid the beaute-
ous scenery before alluded to, or to behold Loch Lomond
sleeping in the arms of her hundred hills by
THE LIGHT OF A SEPTEMBER MOON, OR
FROM THE LOFTY TOWERS OF THE CASTLE,
on a fine evening to behold the setting sun reflecting in the
distance UPON THE GRAMPIAN HILLS,
will be enchanted by a spectacle that must awaken the most
delightful sensations, and to the contemplative mind; fill
him with awe and reverence to the GREAT MASTER and
CREATOR: of all things perfect. To those in such a mood he
would invoke with all humility, yet earnestness, to search for
what the greatest novelist of by-gone days has said of
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL OF ALL THE
CALEDONIAN LAKES.

The magic touch of his never-erring muse must awaken a
sensation first to see and then to possess
THE GREATEST FEATURE OF THIS VICINITY,
" So wondrous wild, the whole might seem
The scenery of a fairy dream."
Next in our kind remembrance
IS BEN LOMOND,
which will necessarily partake of its due meed of praise.
This Mountain,

LIKE SAUL AMIDST HIS COMPANIONS,
o'ertops all contemporaries. The valley, teeming 'in wild
fertility, relieved by pastures and corn land and varied by
ALL THE SOFTER BEAUTIES OF NATURE,
completes a scene which can only be appreciated by occular
demonstration. The Constituency of
THE BOROUGH OF DUMBARTON

will hail with delight the possessor of this Castle and De-
mesne, and if his principles be worthy of their suffrages, he
will probably
WALK OVER THE COURSE.

To conclude, one half of the purchase-money may remain
on security of the Estates, at four per cent. May be viewed,
with a particular of sale, to be had at the Commercial and
News Rooms and Exchange Coffee Rooms, at Glasgow and
Edinburgh ; the Waterloo, Liverpool ; the Bush, Bristol ;

London, where the three beautiful views of the Castle and
Loch may be seen.
