IT is with the above appropriate characters—the Eng-
lishl signification of which is " Peace and Plenty," that
CAPT. PIDDING'S Chinese correspondent heads his
last communication from Fo-kein. " Heaven," he adds,
" approving, has rained down blessings on the Central
Nation. In the same Season, Peace is proclaimed, and
Plenty crowns the Land. Since the year 4448," (A. D.
1811,) " when the Earth was revivified by the broom-
tailed Star," (comet,) vegetation has notbeen so luxuri-
ant as now. The air, redolent of perfume from the fra-
grant tea-blossoms, manifests its fine quality ; whilst the
plentiful picking shows how abundant is the precious leaf.
Thus has nature conspired with the gods to make man
happy."
The new Season's crop of CAPT. PIDDING'S TEAS,
ust received, realises all that he anticipated from the
above communication. Their quality is most assuredly
the finest he has known. Their abundance—with a remis-
sion of duties in prospect—has determined him at once to
reduce the price below what they have ever before been
harged.
CAPTAIN PIDDING'S MIXED BLACK TEA is
accordingly REDUCED from Bs. 6d. the Catty Package
to 6s. the Pound Package. His SMALL LEAF GUN-
POWDER is REDUCED from Twelve Shillings the
Catty Package to Bs. 6d. the Pound Package.
The Signature of the Sole Importer, " Captain JOHN
RHODES PIDDING," Hon. Company's Service, Fellow
Med. Bot. Society, &c., is on every Genuine Package.

IN RESPECT TO LANDED INVESTMENTS.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS respectfully intimates to the
Moneyed World, and more especially all those who
would invest permanently and securely, that in conse-
quence of the manly, straightforward, and unequivocal
declaration of Sir Robert Peel, to the effect
" THAT HE NEITHER HAS, NOR DOES HE
CONTEMPLATE, ANY CHANGE WHAT-
EVER IN THE CORN LAWS,"

that during the ensuing months he will subMit to Public
Competition, ESTATES of great promise, in several of
the most favoured counties throughout England, and
exceeding in value
ONE MILLION POUNDS STERLING.

It may be desirable to observe that, since all doubt and
uncertainty has disappeared, and Mr. R.'s public com-
mentary of last year has been fully confirmed, viz.,
" THAT THE CORN BILL IS FIXED
ON AN IMMOVABLE ROCK OF SAFETY,".
he may with the greatest confidence endeavour to enlist
the early attention of the great Capitalists to a more secure
and less doubtful employment in terra firma. The ad-
justment of the great point at issue has arrived at a
great, a triumphant result. It is at length discovered
that in the exceedingly intricate task, which required all
the mind, the perspicacity, and depth of intellect, pos-
sessed by our firLt Minister, in organizing his salutary
alteration in the corn-laws, he has dealt out a measure of
strict and impartial justice, no less to the manufacturing
than the agricultural interest. There is nothing invidious
—he has laboured, and successfully, to put at rest a very
difficult point fairly and honestly ; his declaration is too
unequivocal to be disregarded, and it should no longer be
a matter of doubt to Trustees who have money to invest,
and most especially all such as hold Three per Cents., (in
fear and trembling, at the unhealthy price of 98,) that
terra firma, so unnaturally depressed of late years, will
combine two points that the most sceptical cannot gainsay
—a larger present income, and a prospective view (when-
ever the cause which must reduce the public funds to such
a fearful extent) of an increase in the exact same propor-
tion in the value of land.
These remarks have for many years operated powerfully
on the mind of Mr. Robins, and the cheering declaration
a Sir 'Robert Peel has triumphantly established the bases
upon which he confidently submits, to an impartial public,
the opinion he has so long maintained.
Covent-garden, February, 1844.

IN LINCOLNSHIRE, NEAR TO BOSTON.

IMPORTANT FREEHOLD. FARMS, ADMIRABLY
SUITED TO TRUSTEES, WHO WOULD IN-
VEST IN PERFECT SAFETY, PRODUCING
£2600 A-YEAR, TOGETHER WITH ALL THE

TITHES, AND A FIRST-RATE TENANTRY.
ft/ R. GEORGE ROBINS has the pleasure to announce
.1.11 l that he is directed by the Devisee in Trust of -
THE RIGHT HON. LORD MONSON, DECEASED,
to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, in the month
of April,
A MOST IMPORTANT LANDED INVESTMENT,
Freehold of Inheritance, and uniting an infinity of sub-
stantial advantages—
FRITII'S BANK, and
EARL'S CROFT ESTATES
are situate within two short miles of

TEIE BOROUGH TOWN OF BOSTON
one of the best markets extant, surrounded by capital
roads, and approximating upon water carriage to all parts
of England. As it is intended to give a more comprehen-
sive review of this eligible property on Mr. Robins's
return from his survey, the present imperfect notice has
only for its object to direct the immediate attention of the
moneyed world to an investment which should not be lost
sight of, as it would require some ingenuity to discover
wherewithal a fault. The Land in this vicinity has, from
days of yore, been proverbial for its superior qurlity ; it
grows the best Wheat, Barley, and Oats, and is congenial
for Turnips and Green Crops. The Domain extends to
TWELVE HUNDRED AND FIVE ACRES,
IS ENTIRELY IN A RING FENCE,
BESIDES THE TITHES OF THE ESTATES.
The whole is occupied by a tenantry of long standing ;
and it may be well to remind those who were sceptical in
respect to the continuance of the corn-laws, that they
will now repose on a bed of roses. Sir Rol•ert Peel has,
by his manly, judicious, and unequivocal declaration in
favour of the corn-laws, quieted the apprehensions of all
those who desire to see the agricultural and the manufac-
turing interests go quietly in harness together, without
any undue partiality. The sun will now again illumine the
agricultural horizon, (too long clouded by uncertainty,)
and terra firma become the favourite, as opposed to
Three per Cents. at. 98. It should have been observed
there are

SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY ACRES OF THE
BEST GRAZING AND MEADOW LAND
IN ENGLAND,
whereon the bullocks are speedily rendered fat for a
journey to Smithfield.

Particulars in due time of Messrs. OnnxE and LUMLEY,
Solicitors, Carey-street; and at Mr. GEORGE ROBINS'S
Offices, London.
