In Shropshire, the whole PARISH of RATLINGHOPE,
2,400 Acres, with a TOWNSHIP and MANOR within itself.
An ESTATE for secure Investment, near to Shrewsbury,
and still closer in alliance with Church Stretton, with the
ADVOWSON of RATLINGHOPE, Thirteen DAIRY
FARMS, and a SHOOTING BOX, in a Mining District,
with a valuable body of ORE upon the Property.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL by AUC-
TION, at the MART, LONDON, on THURSDAY, July
8, at Twelve,
An IMPORTANT FREEHOLD ESTATE, in which
will be found a combination which very few estates will ven-
ture to aspire to. First it embraces
A SHOOTING or HUNTING BOX.
a little Snuggery ; with
TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED ACRES OF
LAND, and all within a Ring Fence ; it forms
The entire PARISH of RATLINGHOPE,
In the SOUTHERN DIVISION of SHROPSHIRE.
It is FREE of TITHE, and the POOR RATES are almost
NOM INA

Again, there are
THIRTEEN COMPACT DAIRY FARMS, ALL
UNDERLET UNTIL NEXT YEAR;
THE ADVOWSON of the RECTORY of RATLING-
HOPE : AND COPPER AND LEAD MINES UPON
THE PROPERTY.
The Hunting Box or Shooting Villa is seen nestling under
the wings of the surrounding hills, with Gardens and Offices,
and only a short distance from the church. There are lots
of Trout, and Ratlinghope is a
TOWNSHIP AND MANOR OF ITSELF,
WELL STOCKED WITH BLACK AND RED GROUSE,
and abounds in Game of all descriptions, with several acres
of thriving Plantations. It is on a good Turnpike Road,
twelve miles from Shrewsbury, and four from Church
Stretton.
A Gentleman who seeks an investment free from doubt or
uncertainty, and a prospective increase to his Rental, with
Rents most punctually paid by a respectable body of Yeomen,
and Sporting as good as can be found throughout England
for his leisure and recreation, will do well to think seriously
of this purchase. Its contiguity to a Mining District, with
COPPER MINES NOW AT WORK,
and strong indications of Lead, are of too much importance
to be disregarded. It is in a county famed for health and
longevity. A Trout Stream passes through the Grounds,
and there are three Markets all available for the Produce of
the Land. The Peat will become very valuable. There is
a Public-House and a Water Corn-Mill, and a Sheep-Walk,
to Depasture 1,000 Sheep, within a Ring Fence.
With this short statement the narrative will close.
Specimens of the Ore, and particulars, with Maps, are
preparing to be had at the Talbot Inns at Church Stretton
and Shrewsbury ; the Waterloo, Liverpool ; of the Editor of
the Manchester Times; at C. D. CRAIG'S, Esq., Offices,

Offices, Covent Garden.

on the spot, who has appointed a person to show the same.

FOR THE GROWTH, PRESERVATION; AND EM-

BELLISHMENT OF THE HAIR.
AIIDDLEWOOV S BOTANIC OR FAMILY HAIR

T M. respectfully solicits :irial of this inestimable Oil,
eJ 4s where its efficacy is not known. It is patronised by
families of distinction, and held in high estimation at the
It has been proved, by m&ny experiments, in restor-
ing the Hair, when every other application has failed ; and
when the Hair is on the decline, or becoming grey, it reno-
vates and produces its original lustre.
J. M. is aware that the public is prejudiced against Hair
Oils that have no other recommendation than the advertise-
ments ; however, no disappointment will occur in the use of
Middlewood's Oil : the testimonials are indisputable, as
submitted to Parliament. Many Oils, sold as stimulants,
render the Hair harsh, and are injurious in the extreme;
they clog the pores, and compress the absorbents, producing
dandriff, a dry unpleasant sensation on the scalp ; but this,
and every other cause of baldness may be removed by the
genuine Botanic Oil, which is of great utility in every family.
It preserves the Hair and scalp from infancy to old age.
Sold in Pot Boxes, 25., 3s. Gd., and 55., with an allowance
on taking three Boxes. It is sold in Family Bottles, for the
toilet, 10s. each.
J. M. is daily receiving the most flattering praise, not only
of the superior properties of his Oil, but also of the reason-
able price of so valuable an article. Oil to the amount of
405., or upwards, will be forwarded free of carriage. on re-
ceipt of a post-office or other order of payment. The Botanic
Oil is particularly recommended to all Public Seminaries, as
it will prevent the spreading of ringworm, or other cutaneous
diseases incident to the hair and scalp.
For Export, J. M. recommends the Botanic Oil as a safe
and profitable speculation, no article can compete with it in
England : there can be no competition, a premium is given
from 25 to 30 per cent. over and above the customary profits
to venders, and, consequently, it is not the best article,
but the greatest profit that is a consideration, and before
the public can be well served, they must make a trial of ar-
ticles the most obnoxious to the general trade.

BY COMMAND.
STEEL PEN MAKER TO THE QUEEN.
Precept dated April 13, 1840.
T OSEPH GILLOTT, PATENT STEEL PEN MANUFAC-
TURER, Victoria Works, Graham-street, Birmingham,
has been for twenty years engaged in the manufacture of Steel
Pens, and during that time has devoted his unceasing atten-
tion to the improving and perfecting this useful and necessary
article ; the result of his persevering efforts, and numerous
experiments upon the properties of the metal used, has been
the construction of a Pen upon a principle entirely new, com-
bining all the advantages of the elasticity and fineness of the
quill, with the durability of the metallic pen, and thus ob-
viating the objections which have existed against the use of
Steel Pens.

The Patentee is proud to acknowledge that a discerning
public has paid the most gratifying tribute to his humble,
though useful labours, by a demand for his Pens far exceed-
ing his highest expectations.
_ _ _

The number of Pens Manufactured at the Works of Joseph
Gillott, from October, 1837, to October, 1838,

was 35,808,452
or 2,984,0371 dozens.
or 248,669 gross 9 dozen and 8 pens.
And from October, 1838, to 1839,

was 44,654,702 1
or 3,721,225 dozen and 2-12ths.
or 310,102 gross 1 dozen and 2-12ths.
CAUTION.—J. G. regrets to say, certain disreputable
Makers have tried to impose upon the Public a spurious
article, bearing the mis-spelled name of the Patentee and sole
Manufacturer, thus " GILOTT," by omitting the L ; and in
some instances the final T is omitted, thus " GILLoT," so as
to retain the sound—but the Public will please observe, ALL
THE GENUINE PENS ARE MARKED IN FULL " JOSEPH
GILLOTT ;" and Vendors are desired to note that his Cards
of Pens are made up in Packets of one dozen each, and have
a label outside with a fac-simile of his Signature, thus

At the request of Persons engaged in Tuition, J. G. has

cially adapted to their use, beinx_of different degrees of
