IN THE SOUTH OF DEVONSHIRE

The Bradley Estate, near to the Market Town of
Newton Abbot, distinguished from all Contempora.
ries for the Splendid Woods and Scenery that en-
compass it ; together with the Ancient Mansion House
and Offices, Park-like, Grounds, and very rich Gra-
zing and Arable Lands in the Valley below, all within
a Ring Fence, independently of the Freehold Estate
and Influence arising from the Fairs and Markets,
the Market Place, and all its Appendages of great extent,
and several of the best Houses in the Town, with Coal
Wharfs and the Bradley lnn, beside the extensive Mano-
rial Rights and Privileges within the Borongh of Newton
Abbot and Newton Bushel, a most desirable Investment,
and in One Lot.

iurß. GEORGE ROBINS is much pleased that he has
been selected by the worthy divine and respected pro-
prietor to SELL, by PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the
Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY, July 15, at Twelve,
in One Lot, a

VERY IMPORTANT FREEHOLD ESTATE,
and certainly one of

THE MOST RENOWNED THROUGHOUT THE
COUNTRY. THE BRADLEY ESTATE
has acquired a fame that has been perpetuated for many ge-
nerations. History has recorded its antiquity ; indeed, it is
fortunate that so much has been already said in its praise
from unequivocal authority, that but little is left for Mr.
Robins to offer by way of panegyric. Before he ventures
upon the responsibility of pourtraying by his feeble attempt
THE WOODS OF BRADLEY, AND THE SURPAS-
SING BEAUTY OF THE WOODLAND SCENERY,
he will give a short outline of the nature and extent of pro-
perty that is to be brought under review.
First—The Manor of Highwick and Hundred of Tern-
bridge, in the Borough of Newton Bushel and Newton
Abbot. The Courts Leet and Baron, Lordship, Royalties
and Privileges of the Borough of Newtoh Bushel and Abbot.
The Courts and Chief Rents belonging to the Fairs and Mar-
kets of Newton Abbot. The Bradley Inn, the Market-place,
and a portion of the best Shops and Residences within the
Town and Borough ; together with the necessary
AND INSEPARABLE INFLUENCE THEREUNTO

'BELONGING AND APPERTAINING.
The rental and value derivable from the portion may be
estimated at near.Cl,ooo a year.
THE BRADLEY ESTATE AND WOODS

extend to near 350 acres of rich grazing and arableTands, en-
tirely within a ringiinee ; the tithe and poor-rate very li-
mited.

THE MANSION IS VERY

ANCIENT,

and in candour it must be proclaimed that it has been very
much disregarded for many years; history has been mor•
kind, and in the olden times awarded to its meed of praise.
A new possessor will distinguish his taste from that of by-
gone days, and, with a pretty considerable outlay, render it a
suitable appendage to the magnificent woods that adorn it;
nor is it improbable a mole elevated spot would be selected
to substitute another mansion. It is, however, of the famed
woods and to

THE SCENE OF ENCHANTMENT WITHIN THEM,
that the reader's attention is called—they rise in majestic

grandeur, and.

IN AMPIIITHEATRIC PRIDE

around the venerable abode, ascending to a tremendous
height, the scene varying at every turn, with walks and rides
disposed by the hand of The Great Master in every direction,
until the summit is accomplished, when a scene is presented
that may be imagined, but certainly cannot well be described :
for extent and loveliness nothing can surpass it—the mur-
muring of the rapid river Lemon in the sequestered regions
below—and whim the setting sun condescendingly makes
golden all the leaves—when the music of a thousand birds is
heard—it is not too much to liken the scene to one approach-
ing Elysium : it presents a striking concentration of sublime
and majestic scenery, softened by the intermixture of features
the most romantic and picturesque,
" 'Till breathless, as we grow when feeling most;
And silent,—we stand in thoughts too deep

For utterance."
The poet aye, and the painter too, amid the scenes of rocks
and woods, and pellucid streams, may realise, and without
the aid of fancy's sketch, a picture of transcendent beauty
and interest—rivalling all that has been said or sung
"OF OTHER CLIMES AND SUNNY ISLES
RE." _ _

This portion of the estate, with the domain already referred
to, closely approximates upon the town,
,which it ought to
have been observed is one of the most improved and still im-
proving towns in Devonshire. The land is necessarily en-
hanced considerably in value, and it will not be estimating it
too highly at near £l,OOO a year. A nobleman or gentleman
inclined to field sports will find it to his heart's content at
Bradley, and for hunting, shooting, or fishing, it fears no
rival. It is in the vicinity of Torquay (the pet watering
place of the south), with Teignmouth, Dawlish, Totness, and
Exmouth, all within a morning's drive, and the railway when
completed this autumn will bring
LONDON AND . BRADLEY-WOODS WITH IN
SEVEN HOUR'S RIDE OF EACH OTHER.

It consists of

THE AIGBURTH HALL ESTATZ,
abutting on the road to Park Hill, and the New Church, in
the vicinity of Toxteth Park, and extending a quarter of a
mile along the River Nlersey. As this is intended only as a

candidates fpr acquiring wealth at a railway pace. The
property comprises

admirably situate, and commanding a most important treat.

WESTMORELAND

The Castle Head Estate, the favoured Property of this Dis-
trict, and a Domain around it of 165 Acres, independently
of 7Q Acres of Marsh Lands secured from the Sea ; the
Estate is Freehold, and exempt from Tithe.
MIR. GEORGE ROBINS has much pleasure in having
IVI- been instructed to SELL by PUBLIC COMPETI-
TION, at the Auction Mart, London, on Tuußrauy, July
15, at Twelve, in One Lot, a
VERY FINE FREEHOLD PROPERTY,
and most especially adapted to suit the views of the rich mer-
chant of this or any vicinity. There is so much to admire,
with the capability still to improve, that the fair lady of the
proprietor may oppose her present unequivocal taste to that
of bygone days. This observation applies
ONLY TO THE INTERIOR OF THE CONVENIENT
EDIFICE,

which will be noticed in due time ; for as it regards the
grounds that encompass it, it would approach sacrilege to
attempt to remodel or improve them.
THE CASTLE HEAD ESTATE
_ .

takes its name from
THE FAR-FAMED MOUNT
which rises majestically towards the clouds, to a fearful
height. In the olden times tradition gives account of its
being

ONE OF THE ANCIENT ROMAN STATIONS.
It was left to Mr. Wilkinson, the celebrated and very rick
iron master to incline to an expenditere of near £25,000, and
the bridge and embankment cost upwards of £20,000 more
of his immense wealth in creating that which has
NO PARALLEL THROUGHOUT ENGLAND.
Its renown is imperishable, and this observation is made ad-
visedly; but the reader is invited to seek ocular demonstra-
tion, for it is quite impossible to find language that will con.
vey in adequate terms the surpassing delight that the ascent
from the verdant lawns to the mountain top will inspire the
beholder. It would be the work of supererogation to at.
tempt to draw upon Fancy's sketch : language is toe feeble ;
the creation of the mountain belongs to Nature, and in its
completion is the only solitary instance within the writer's
recollection where nature has reluctantly succumbed to art;
but the fact is here proclaimed, and the triumph is perfect;
to describe it in suitable language will not be attempted. The
reader is earnestly invited to resort and pay it an immediate
visit, with an assurance that the undescribable laniscape
which is in store will leave an impression that no thine caa
obliterate.

THE UMBRAGEOUS WALKS
ARE FIVE MILES IN EXTENT,

amid the woods and plantations in the ascent to the anonstai*
top ; in ascending there is ever and anon breaks and peeps
to vary and diversify the scene until at length, on the summit
THE ELYSIUM OF THIS WORLD
becomes visible on the instant. Mr. Robins would net covet
the feelings of any human being who could view

THIS SCENE OF ENCHANTMENT

without duly appreciating the combined effort of an exceed-
ingly long puree, with an infinity of good taste to put it is
motion. It would be idle to point out the immensity of the
views, or the diversity of the scene; there is a never-ending
variety, with an extent almost interminable.

THE 'SEA—THE RAPID RIVER—THE RICH VALE,
AND THE MOUNTAIN TOPS,
seem all contending for the ascendancy. It must be remarked
that on the extreme height of this renowned mount are two
gardens of considerable extent, adorned by flowering shrubs
and American plants, transcendently beautiful, feathering to
the ground in the greatest profusion; indeed the creation of
this luxuriant mount from a barren reek, shows how little of
impossibility there exists in this world, if
THE MARCH OF THE MIND IS WELL APPLIED.
Its extent is 500 feet from the level of the sea beneath it. It
is here that

THE LOVER'S LEAP MAY BE PERPETRATED
with success. The spot is prepared, but the splendid scenery
that OR the instant becomes visible, has interposed its magic
spell, and to the present period left no historical record
wherewith to illumine the reader of so fearful an attempt. It
is now time to return to the edifice, of which it has been re-
marked that there is great room of outlay in ornamental
decoration. The house has abundant accommodations for a
family of some pretensions. It is seen from the high-road,
nestling amid the luxurious plantations, with a terrace walk
and long avenue approach, and the splendid river to form Ste
boundary. The offices are fully sufficient ; the kitchen gar-
dens (not alluding to those on the ascent towards the clouds)
are prolific and extensive. There are
HOT AND SUCCESSION HOUSES,

150 feet in length, and the present show of grapes gives ample
proof of the quality of the vineyard. The climate is hers so
congenial, that the heaviest fall of snow in winter does not
lie on the ground more than three or four days, when at a
short distance it remains for weeks. There is capital fishing
in the River Winster, which is particularly noted for its
trout, and a pack of fox hounds within five miles. It may
be essential, by way of concluding, to allude to the more
profitable portion of the property. There is
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE ARES OF LAND,
entirely within a ring-fence, in fine healthy condition. There
is beside

SEVENTY ACRES OF MARSH LAND,
RECENTLY SECURED FROM THE SEA,
with a brilliant prospect of obtaining, by diligence and irides,
try, another hundred acres very speedily, and
A BEAUTIFUL PARK

is easy of accomplishment, and the lands may be irrigated.
Castle Head is situate in Westmoreland and Lancashire, 10
miles from Lancaster, and four and a half from Milnthorpe
across the sands; 12 from Kendal, 13 from Ulverstone, and
5 from Windermere Lake ; and it is important to know that
although in days of yore the distance became a slight impedi-
ment, it is now within
THIRTEEN HOURS' RIDE TO LONDON.

Particulars, with plans, are preparing. To be had six
weeks before the auction, at the Waterleo, Lirerpool ; the
Hotels, Manchester; the Plough, Cheltenham; at the Auc-
tion Mart ; and Mr. George Robin's Offices, London.

SPECIFIC CURE FOR SPASMS.
TAR. BAYFIELD, R.N., Physician-Accoucheur, Mem-
berl.l of the University of Edinburgh, Member of the
College of Surgeons, &c. has the pleasure to announce to the
public and aged invalids especially, that he has discovered a
most invaluable Specific for the immediate relief and ultimate
cure of Spasms in the stomach and bowels, as well as of tho
constitution generally, by which many valuable lives have
been preserved during an extensive practice for the last 16
years. He respectfully calls the reader's attention to the
following letter from a lady of rank, which he has selected
out of numbers he is able to produce.

" Lad R--- " Cheltenham, Plough Hotel.
y presents her compliments to Dr. Bayfeld,
and will thank him to send her another packet of his excel-
lent SPASMODIC TINCTURE. Lady R- has much
pleasure in thus bearing testimony to the benefit she has di.
rived fiorn taking it, according to the directions, since which
she has had no return of her former distressing malady ; for
previous to a friend informing her of Dr. Bayfield's remedy,
she had been for years a martyr to the most excruciating
spasms. She therefore wishes to know whether Dr. B.
wishes her to continue taking the Tincture, it is now nearly
three months since she had an attack, but as she is about to
have Cheltenham for the north, she wishes to have a packet
to carry with her.
