THE BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL
It consists of

THE AIGBURTH HALL ESTATE,

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 Mersey. As this is intended only as a
preliminary announcement, a few remarks will, it is believed,
be sufficient to enlist the early attention of those who are
candidates for acquiring wealth at a railway pace. The
property comprises

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY ACRES,
admirably situate, and commanding a most important front-
age of considerable extent upon
THE SPLENDID RIVER MERSEY,
and partaking of the interesting views of the floating scenery
and Hooton Woods and Park, with Denbigh and Snowdon
Mountains in the distance. It is intended to divide this par-
ticularly eligible freehold ground into suitable lots whereon
to create twenty chateaus, adapted to the recreation of the
wealthy merchants of the first town in England, who will
gladly avail themselves of so short a remove from their daily
occupations, to go to Aigburth and repose on the pleasing
reminiscence of every day's gain. As it is on the Liverpool
side of the Mersey, the communication by land and water is
continuous.

Additional information will be announced in due time ;
particulars had of Messrs. AMoRY, SEWELL, and MOORES,
Throgmorton-street, and Mr. 111uLLINER, Surveyor, Old

_ THE CITY OFDgLIN,

They comprehend altogether
SIXTEEN FARMS, ALL TITHE FREE,

extending to
THREE THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND,
of the first quality, divided into convenient farms and occu-
pied by
A WEALTHY AND CONTENTED TENANTRY,
who pay their rents without a murmur ; the word arrear
could not be found in their vocabulary ; they are held on
leases for lives, with fines on renewal, at most inadequate
rents; indeed the rental may be assimilated to
FREEHOLD GROUND-RENTS ;
and to demonstrate this fact more clearly it need only to be
remarked that the present rental is only £l,BOO, and the
value exceeds

FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR.
the situation of this fine demesne is almost beyond com-
pared, and with great truth, to

GENEVA'S FAVOURED SCENERY.

estates of Lord Clifton, Sir Compton Domvil, Bart., Sir
Capel Molineui, and Sir Henry White Jarvis, Bart. ; and it

cedently, at :Gresham's Hotel; and of Messrs. Symes and
Keller, solicitors, Dublin ; Messrs. Brassington and Gale,

IN NORTH DEVONSHIRE.

nery of Lynton ; also, a Swiss Cottage, called " Waters
Meet," in the beauteous Vale, two miles off, and Coombe
Park, with 130 Acres of Land, in the immediate Vicinity
of this inimitable Spot.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is much pleased in havin? been
preferred to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION,
at the New London Hotel, Exeter, on Saturday, August 14,
at Twelve, in Lots,
A FREEHOLD PROPERTY,
and one that has powerful claims on th early attention of
all those who would avoid the expense,atul fatigue of visiting
Switzerland, and yet could delight iyte opportunity of par-
taking of

THE SPLENDOUR 0 S SCENERY IN

within a ride of ten hours fro the metropolis of London.
Mr. Robins feels that he may, in the discharge of his duty,
venture to call in question the bad taste that has kept silent
the Muse of ancient and modern Authors, in respect to
THE BEAUTIES OF NORTH DEVON.
In his research, he has not been so fortunate as to come in
contact with any work that does not very imperfectly repre-
sent this county : it is, however, of Lynton and its vicinity
that he is required to give a succinct, and, necessarily, a hur-
ried sketch of the surpassing beauty that is in store--he has
but too frequently been at fault in his humble effort to appre-
ciate the innumerable advantages afforded by splendid scene-
ry in other parts of England ' • but he finds in North Devon
that which has far eclipsed all that has heretofore come un-
der his especial review ;—it is, indeed, but humble praise to
observe that it leaves all former reminiscences at a pretty
considerable distance, as our American friends would say—
he can only strive to enlist the attention of all those who
have (or have not) visited Switzerland to the imperfect at-
tempt that will follow, in the expectation that he may at least
have been so fortunate as to incline many to perambulate the
scene of enchantment he has just visited ; and he is fully as-
sured no one will gainsay that at Lynton arid its environs the
traveller will find all that his fondest expectations can have
contemplated in an excursion to Switzerland.
LYNTON'S FAVOURED WATERING PLACE
only requires to be known to be duly appreciated. Throughout
ENGLAND'S VAST DOMAIN
it cannot dread a contemporary.
THE VALLEY OF THE ROCKS
alone would compensate for many a wearied day, and the
scene that encompasses it, will not—shall not—be weakened
by any effort of the writer to do it justice. But it is time to
endeavour, by a condensed account, to speak of the property
to be sold. First,
THE SPLENDID SWISS VILLA,
placed on a rock of fearful height, looking down upon the
peaceful village, the ascent to which is rendered easy by cir-
cuitous walks and rides, varied at every turn by new and de-
lightful peeps at the opposing rocks. The expanse of the
wide ocean, the cataracts and waterfalls that are everywhere
presented, and the murmurings of the rapid waters below,
remembering that this ascent, through
THE WOODS OF PARADISE,
is rendered as perfect as a combination of art and natur3 elm
perpetuate. The whole is clothed in prolific woods and war..
tations, with French and English gardens, to vary the scene
daring the pleasing encounter through the Elysium grounds.
On arriving at the acclivity, the scene is so beauteous as to

[PRICE FIVEPENCE.

render it quite fruitless to attempt even a sketch : it must
be seen, or it cannot be believed, or fully appreciated• It
need hardly be added, that, as a winter residence, it is ex-
cluded from all the annoyance that one less exposed must be
to wind and weather, and in a climate not unlike the south
of France. It is, to all intents and purposes,

A SWISS
except that, within it, attention to family comfort has pre-
sided to a much greater degree. The offices are in every re-
spect of a corresponding character. Hot and cold baths and
even• essential to happiness, is conspicuous everywhere ; but
the writer cannot resist again to recur to the situation. In
contemplating a scene like the one under consideration, a
strange spell seemed to rivet him to the spot ; but to see and
to feel this in all its force,
" THE SPECTATOR MUST BE ALONE WITH
NATURE."

The enchanting scenery, of which it is the very centre, give
it all those charms with which the imagination invests
THE REALMS OF FAIRY LAND.
It may be compared to a rich gem inclosed in a most beauti-
ful setting, at once reflecting and reflected by everything
around. Then

The roar
Of rushing cataracts, sounds that sink and soar,
Freshen and faint in turn, and still renewed,
Wake the wild chords of Nature's solitude."
Next in succession is
THE SWISS COTTAGE,
IN THE CONTIGUOUS VALLEY,
designated " WATERS MEET,"
and is one of the prettiest things in Europe ; but it is very
petite. The road to it is between the mountains, where the
hanging woods are clothed in verdure to the summit : in the
heavenly region below is placed the cottage, surrounded by
its pleasure grounds, and claiming. a portion of the land on
the adjoining bill, the river struggling over the reeky beds,
the rush of many waters fall in mingled chorus.upou the ear,
but so faint, and with so little of the audible character of
" headlong floods," that the sound has a tranquillising rather
than a startling effect. Again, and nest in succession, is
THE COMBE PARK ESTATE. ONE HUNDRED
