OPINIONS OF THE PRESS

" This work, a TENTH Edition of which is now pre-
sented to the public—ten thousand copies have been ex-
hausted since its first appearance—has been very much
improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended
and clear detail of general principles, as also by the inser-
tion of several new and- highly interesting cases. The
numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affections
of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of con-
sumption, which, however, when traced to their source,
are found to result from certain baneful habits, fully
proves that the principle of the division of labour is no-
where more applicable than in medical practice. We feel
no hesitation in saying, that there is no member of society
by whom the book will not be found useful. whether such
person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a
Clergyman . "—Su n .
" Messrs. Curtis's work, called MANHOOD, is one
of the few hooks now coming before the public on such a
subject, which can lay claim to the character of being
strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully in-
telligible to all who read it. The moral and medical pre-
cepts given in it, render it invaluable."--Magnet.
" The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book, entitled MAN-
HOOD, has really astonished us by developing a series of
maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious
habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed
out between the assigned cause and the effects is percep-
tible to every capacity."—Ape. _

This is a cork that we fear there exists too r

us to hesitate to recommend it for ge.
erusal. Every branch of those frightful maladies,
ther the result of immoral habits or secret vices, is
succinctly treated, and, divested of all medical tech.

in and easy directions are given for the best

mode to be pursued in all cases, however complicated or
apparently hopeless. To the married, as well as the un-
married, this little work alike affords consolation and cure
in peculiar cases, and we are doing service to society in
recommending it to general notice."—Essea' and Herta

Mercur3,
" The

scientific views taken

y the authors, of the

source and origin of many of the most distressing effects
of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to
the character of experienced surgeons ; and the result of
our careful perusal of the work has been to impress us
with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the
authors, and to satisfy us that those intrusted with the
care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur-
nishing them with a means of preventing some of the roost
frightful maladies to which flesh is heir."—Old England.

IN STAFFORDSHIRR

THE CONSALL ESTATE, NEAR CHEADLE.
AN IMPORTANT MINERAL AND MANORIAL
ESTATE, WHERE THE COALS ARE ALMOST
WITHOUT END ; TOGETHER WITH TEN CA-
PITAL FREEHOLD FARMS-2,000 ACRES OF
GOOD LAND, RESPECTABLY OCCUPIED-

WITH 350 ACRES OF THRIVING WOODS AND

PLANTATIONS, AND LOTS OF GAME.
R. GEORGE ROBINS begs respectfully to apprise
IY-L the great Capitalists that he is directed to OFFER
for SALE by AUCTION, at the Albion Hotel, Man-
chester, on SATURDAY next, the 28th inst., in Three Lots,

One of .the most

IMPORTANT FREEHOLD ESTATES WITEIIN
THE COUNTY OF STAFFORD.

The attention of those who would invest securely, and
have the means to do so, to a great extent, are seriously
invited to the short analysis that follows.
It is known as THE CONSALL ESTATE, near to
Cheadle, and includes

EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT
ACRES OF LAND,
entirely within a Ring Fence, to which may be appended
such important features as are of a very rare occurrence.
It is

ALL FREEHOLD—TITHE-FREE,
LAND-TAX REDEEMED, AND
EXTRA PAROCHIAL,
inasmuch as the Poor and County Rates do not exceed
3d. in the Pound on the Rental, which is now estimated
at

FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR

Such extraordinary advantages are indeed of rare occur-

rence, but

THE COALS PRESENT A STILL MORE
IMPORTANT FEATURE,

as there are five ascertained seams. The Quantity abso-
lutely without end, and of the best quality. They are
worked by a water level. The pits are contiguous to a
branch of the Trent and Mersey Canal ; and the specula-
tors at Manchester (where coal is now so scare and so
much in request) will find this an unapproachable oppor-
tunity

TO INVERT THEIR CAPITAL FROM THE
THREE PER CENTS. AT 95

to a solid and never-ending security, and with 50 per cent.
interest in perspective. The large portion of the Estate is
adapted to

DAIRY

AND GRAZING FARMS,

still reserving a full proportion for excellent Corn Land.
It is advantageously placed in a populous district, with-
in very easy distance of three capital Markets, and the
Potteries not far off, which, it need hardly be remarked,
is a sure and rrever ending source (and at high prices) for
all the Produce of this Estate. The Residence is by no
means of a character to cause any apprehensions from the
annoyance of its being over-housed ; and yet it possesses,
together with a walled Garden and useful Offices, all the
agremens for a family who do not soar too high ; there are
lots of opportunity to increase it to a size more congenial
to a first-rate establishment.

THE LANDS ARE ALL HIGHLY CULTIVATED,
and occasionally diversified by the
EXTENSIVE WOODS AND PLANTATIONS,
presenting a very animated Surface; there is besides a
fruitful supply of Lime, Gravel, and Stone ; and
A RAILWAY PASSES THROUGH BETWEEN
THREE AND FOUR MILES OF THE ESTATE,
belonging to the Proprietor, and is in direct communica-
tion with the
