if R. GEORGE ROBINS has the satisfaction to make
IY-L known that he has been favoured by the instructions of

THE RIGHT HON. THE EAR' OF DUCIE,
to sell by PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart,
in London, on THURSDAY, the 29th of June, at Twelve
o'clock, in One Lot,

THE WOODCHESTER ESTATE.
it 'has acquired a renown that will relieve the Individual
who has the conduct of this Sale, from entering into a very
lengthened detail ; in fact, he may be permitted, from this
circumstance, to condense the infinite variety of never-ending
beauties, and advantages, which are every where contending
for the rivalry, into a more limited space; premising, ere he
encounters the Herculean task, that the Public must he con-
tent with an imperfect, although it shall be a faithful narra-
tive of Woodchester.
THIS MAGNIFICENT PROPERTY
AND ITS PRINCELY DEMESNE

are situate in the rich vale of Gloucester, approaching to
Stroud.

The MANSION is HAPPILY PLACED in the CENTRE
of a PARK, LUXURIANT BEYOND DESCRIPTION,

NOT YIELDING IN ITS NATURAL BEAUTY
TO ANYTHING CONTEMPORANEOUS THROUGH-

OUT ENGLAND
The Estate includes nearly

FOUR THOUSAND ACRES OF EXCELLENT LAND,
divided into Superior Farms,
FOUR MILES IN LENGTH AND FIVE IN
BREADTH,
" Here verdant pastures wide, extended lie,
And yield the grazing herd exuberant supply ;
Luxuriant waving in the wanton air,
Here golden grain rewards the peasant's care,"
with Fars-I
-houses of a superior character, and a tenantry
that is perfectly unexceptionable. Probably one remark in
corroboration of the last sentence will be satisfactory. The
arrears on the Lady-day rents are not quite £lOO. The
rental and value approaches FIVE THOUSAND THREE
HUNDRED POUNDS A-YEAR. The next point for
attention is

WOODCHESTER MANSION,

an abode which originally cost about

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS

It is planned to accommodate the first Noblemen in the
land ; seventy guests have found repose and comfort here on
one night. Windows of Painted Glass, give to it a dim,reli-
gious light, in fact, everything is in perfect keeping within.
As taste will sometimes differ, Mr. Robins would observe,
that the outward form is not incapable of improvement ; and
in the spirit of candour that influences all his announce-
ments, he would add, that a Thousand Pounds would benefit
the exterior, by giving to it a more imposing appearance, and
which cannot be denied to an abode that is seated in

A PARK, WHICH FOR ITS VARIETY AND BEAUTY,
IS NOT TO BE SURPASSED THROUGHOUT
THE GLOBE,

wherein the
WOODLAND SCENERY AND ORNAMENTAL

WATERS

are ever and anon contending for the supremacy.
" Here swell the vales, the woods and prospects rise."

The Offices, within and without, are quite commensurate.
There is standing for Eight Carriages, Eighteen Stalls, be-
sides loose boxes; and this is independent of
THE HUNTING ESTABLISHMENT,
_ .

which is perfect.
THE CHURCH PREFERMENT
INCLUDES TWO VALUABLE ADVOWSONS,

with Woodchester and Frocester, £6OO a Year, and Two su-
perior Parsonage Houses. Connected with it is
THE ENTIRE VILLAGE of NYMPLIFIELD, WHERE-
IN ARE SIXTY-SIX HOUSES, AND THE

DUCIE ARMS, WITH POLITICAI, INFLUENCE
EXTENDING OVER TWELVE HUNDRED
HONEST YEOMEN.

The Kitchen Gardens occupy a space of six acres, inclosed
by walls 12 feet in height, clothed with highly-flavoured
fruit, and ornamented by
TEN HOT AND SUCCESSION HOUSES,
in which is included two for Peaches and eight Vineries
Every thing is so bountiful, that Covent-garden Market
would be accounted a work of supererogation.
THE SPLENDID GROUNDS AND MAGNIFICENT

SCENERY
will next occupy a place in this moderated statement, and
the writer feels that, having in his own person enjoyed the
unspeakable delight to witness this Fairy scene
" For the modest Muses made,"

and encountering in constant succession the never-ending
breaks and peeps through the woods, he might almost be ex-
cused if he imbued the landscape with two much colour ;
but even this excusable fault he will avoid. To begin—the
Grounds are laid out in that perfect taste which knows how
to wed nature to art, without sacrificing her simplicity to the
alliance, and occupied a space extending over a century, be-
fore they arrived at perfection. There are
MILES OF ROMANTIC WALKS AND DRIVES
WITHIN THIS INCOMPARABLE SPOT,

and the cleverness by which the mountain tops are approach-
ed., by the walks stealing gently and gradually through this
beauteous scene, the fearful acclivity is overcome. It must
be seen to be well appreciated ; and when the task is accom-
plished the views which present themselves are a reward
greatly exceeding the fatigue by which it has been accom-
plished, and at the summit it would also appear that the
clouds were in connection with this fruitful demesne. Art is
out of place here, quite an alien to that which nature has
vouchsafed.

TO SEE AND TO FEEL THIS IN ALL ITS FORCE,

THE SPECTATOR
AIUST BE ALONE WITH NATURE
Embosomed in these splendid Woods is seen

THE ANCIENT CASTLE

ERECTED AT THE SUGGESTION OF GEORGE 11.
The Vale of Gloucester has long been famed for its varied
beauties—Malvern, Durs:ey, and Riley, with its romantic
encampment, are in the distance,
THE RIVER SEVERN IN ITS IRREGULAR

COURSE PASSING THROUGH THE VALLEY,
forming a conspicuous feature, progressing in silent stillness,
except where
" Ilnhhlinir runnels join the sound,"
or where the wind makes

".I\lusic in the sighing of the reeds,"

varying and improving the Landscape until it will be felt to
beggar all description.
THE TERRACE WALKS OF GREAT EXTENT
and importance, are well imagined to improve the various
Claude-like pictures which nature in its bounty has vouch-
safed to Woodchester. A Temple adorns a different spot,
which overlooks THE ITALIAN GARDENS AND
FOUNTAINS PLAYING with the ornamental watering
the fore-ground ; it would really bring to mind what may be
likened to Elysium, but Mr. B nine feels be is exceeding the
limit he had prescribed to himself, and will therefore take a
very summary view of the rest.

the Rental is, at the express desire of the Noble Earl,
20 per cent. less than its neighbours. The Park is full of
deer.

THE MANORS AND MANORIAL RIGHTS

give a consequence that will not he overlooked, besides the
greater advantage of being always well supplied with game.
The fishing is also excellent, and the hunting and field sports
of first-rate order; in fact, the great difficulty would arise in
pointing out an advantage that is not conspicuous here, and,
be it remembered, it is

WITHIN THREE HOURS AND A HALF RIDE OF
LONDON.

a short hour of Cheltenham ; and a railway is in progress
that will almost skirt the village; in conclusion, it may be
safely affirmed, that if hospitality be one of the characteris-
tics of Woodchester,

THE REPRESENTATION OF THE COUNTY,
will FOLLOW, AS A MATTER OF COURSE,
with

THE LORD LIEUTENANCY TO FOLLOW,

One word more at parting ; respecting the Corn Bill. It
is now pretty well understood that the
ADMIRABLE AND STATESMANLIKE MANNER
by which SIR ROBERT PEEL, BART.,

has settled and put to rest for ever
THE INTRICATE QUESTION OF THE CORN BILL,
will incline all those who were sceptical before to agree with
Mr. Robins, that terra firma (now fixed upon an immovable
rock by the pe.spicacity of the Minister) is infinitely prefera-
ble to Three per Cents. at 97; and Mr. Robins desires to in-
vite all such Capitalists as are in search of the best invest-
ment extant, to give him personally the opportunity to ex-
main more minutely the varied qualifications exclusively
claimed as appurtenances to Wooclzhester.
