September 29th, 1848. IN retiring from a Business which I have conducted in this City during the space of 40 years, I feel the obli- gation of returning my very sincere thanks for the kind and liberal encouragement 1 have received. I have now the satisfaction of announcing as mv successors—my Son BENJ "IlN STRATTON, who has been thoroughly educ-.ted in the Business, and for the last 12 years has assisted me in the management thereof, in conjunction with .Mr. SAMUEL HUGHES, a Civil Engineer from London, whose practical experience in the improvement of Estates by Drainage, &c., will supply a desideratum which has been long felt in connection with this Estab- lishment. I trust, therefore, that a firm so constituted. will lose none of that support and encouragement which has been so kindly and extensively accorded to mtself. RICHARD STRATTON. P.S.-R. STRATTON will continue his attendance at the Office in Clarke-street, where he will pay all accounts due to the 29Lh September inst., and where he solicits an early settlement of all accouuts due to him previuus to that date. STRATTON, HUGHES, & CO. having succeeded S to the Business of Mr. RICHARD SI'RATTON, as Patentees and Manufacturers of Wheels, Carls, Wag- gons, and Agricultural Implements, and general Agricul- tural Eugiueers, venture to request a continuance of th >se favours which have been so libeially bestowed on their predecessor. Their system of carrying on Business will be essentially the same, their attention will be incessantly devoted to the improvement of every kind of Agricultural Implement, and they trust that their Repository will always contain an unrivalled collection, including the best Implements of other Makers as well as those of their own Manufacture. The present Stock, comprising upwards of 2,200 arti- cles, all with prices affixed, and ready for immediate use, is well worthy of attention. STRATTON, HUGHES, and Co., beg to call attention to their patented Hollow Iron, and its application to the beams of Ploughs, and Shafts of Carts, the Spokes of Wheels, and the Tilt Hoops of Railway Goods Waggons, and a variety of other purposes where strength and light- ness are essential. They also invite attention to their Norwegian HAR- ROW, an implement of great power, for the purpose of pulverizing and disintegrating the surface of heavy- ploughed lands to their Patent TUMBLER CART for Night-soil, and their Patent CYLINDER CART for Liquid Manure, &c. STRATTON, HUGHES, & Co., have extended their Busi- ness to Agricultural Engineering, and undertake the Survey of Lands for purposes of Drainage and Irrigation, and the erection of t- arm Buildings, under the personai superintendence of Mr. Hughes, C.E. F.G.S. They beg to assure their Friends and Customers in the neighbourhood of Bristol, that the same attention as ever will be paid to the business of repairs that they purpose always to keep in hand a large and well-assorted stock of choice and well-seasoned Timber; to use none but th best materials, and to employ ouly the most skilled and careful workmen. They hope thus to execute all orders entrusted to them with such punctuality, exactness, and economv, as to give satisfaction to their employers. CARMARTHEN SHIRE TURNPIKE ROADS. TOLLS TO L E T.

TO IRONMASTERS. The MAESTEG IRON WORKS, near BRIDGEND and NEATH, in the County of GLAMORGAN. — By Messrs. HOUGART, NORTON, and OAKLEY, at the Mart, on FRI- DAY, October 27, at Twelve. by direction of the asaiguees. '"l^HESE highly Important and most Valuable IRON WORKS possess peculiar advantages, which can scarcely be equalled in the kingdom, and are situate about nine miles from Bridgend and Neath, with a horse railway for conveyance of the produce to Porthcawl, and they will shortly have the advantage of the South Wales aud Lynfi Valley Railways, now in progress. They con- sist of three blast furnaces and cast houses, two blast engines, capable of blowing four blast furnaces, three re- tiueries, foundry for railway chairs, with steam-engine and two cupolas, two winding engines, seventy coke ovens, two capital dwelling-houses, workmen's cottages, &c., aud the abuudance of the minerals would justify the erection of a much larger number of furnaces. The Works have been recently very considerably enlarged. They are in complete repair, and their present capability amounts to 15,000 tons of pig iron per annum, with the means of converting 120 tons per week into refined metal, and 70 tons per week into railway chairs. The quality of the iron made is valuable, both for foundry and forge purposes, uniting the fluidity of the Scotch with the strength of the Welsh, and exceeding the Scotch in de- flexion before breaking 50 per cent. The beneficial in- terest consists of leases, the unexpired term of which vary from 55 to Ti years. The extent of the mineral ground is 946 acres, of which there are 326 of valuable blackband iron ore, and the whole of the ground abounds with coal and argillaceous ironstone. The royalty upon the greater part of the miuerals, including the black band. is only 6d per ton, and the fixed rents are almost nominal, May be viewed on application to Mr. CHARLES HAMPTON, late Matiag r of the WOlks; and full par- ticulars had of Messrs. SEWELL and FOX, Solicitors, 51, Old Broad-street; of Messrs. WHITTINGTON and GRIBBLE, Solicitors; and EDWARD MAN 1" MIL.

HOGGART, NORTON & OAKLEY, M, OW BroiuUstreet, Royal Exchange, London, HALBERTON—DEVONSHIRE. FOR SALE BY PlilVATE CONTRACT, HIGHER HERN ESTATE, SITUATED in the Patish of Halberton, and compri- s sing (more or less) about 52 Acres 2 Roods of rich Orchard, Meadow, Pasture, and Arable Land, within a ring fence, with the exception of one Field, which is almost immediately adjoining,—the quantity of the various description of Land being in fair proportion to the entire size of the Farm. The Estate has a good House for the residence of the occupier, being pleasantly situated, and having suitable and complete Outbuildings, such as are requisite for Farm purposes. Possession may be obtained by arrangement with the present Tenant. This opportunity should not be lost by persons seeking partial retirement from the cares and duties of more ac- tive life, as the Estate is in one of the rich Vales of Devonshire—a county which is familiarly known as the "Garden of England"—the air being particularly mild, and the distance of the House frum the market-town of Tivet ton being only three miles, while from the Tiverton Junction ou the Bristol and Exeter Railway it is only a mile and a half; so thatTaunton and Exeter are, respectively, brought within h<tIt'A,)-hour's journey.

OWING to the numerous applications of their Friends, the ASAM TEA COMPANY have been induced to pack a lower description of ASAM TEA, in QUARTER-JMUNDS, HALF-POUNBS, and ONE-POUND, uot Two Ounces,—which will be supplied at the prices mentioned below. The peculiar recommendations of the AsAM-LEAF are attested by the rigid scrutiny and close analysis to which this newly-discovered species of Tea has been subjected by chemical and medical practitioners. The flavour of the Leaf is agreeably piquant and aromatic, and its infusion in cases of thirst is cool and pene- trating. As a stomachic beverage, it is perfectly wholesome and refreshing, and its dilqtory pronerties on the diges- tive organs render it an invaluable stimulant to appatite. o It must be particularly remembered that this Tea requires to be steeped twice, as long as common Tea, otherwise there will not be a fair opportunity of judging of the piquancy of the flavour.
