JOHN CASSELL I7HNDS it necesssry to caution the Consumers of his justly-famed COFFF.K against purchasing imitations of his Package' The fact that his Establishment is the largest in the kingdom, and his Cofleemost extensively consumed, has led numerous parties to attempt making up very inferior articles in the same style ot package and some, to induce Tradesmen to substitute their spurious article tor that of JOHN CASSELL, offer a larger amount of profit. This has a tendency to prejudice the public, an ■ lieaee the necessity of thus informing them that no Coffee can be the veritable John Casseli's Cuftee unless his signature is upou each package. Go therefore to the Agent for JOHN CAS-SE, LL's COFFEE, ask for John Cassell's Coffee, and see that it is John Cassell's Coffee which is handed to you, having Ins signature upon the package. Thiiis necessary, for there are numerous imit- tiotis stringent and bitter to the palate, while John Cassell's Coffee is rich and strong, at the same time that it is mellow and delicious' pleastog to the palate, and invigorating to tho system. The following are the prices at which they can be obtained :— John Cassell's Coffee, No. 1. an excellent article Is. 4d. John Cassell's Coffee.

MR. CORNELIUS EVANS, Has been honoured with instructions to SELL BY PRIVATE CONTRACT, A ERY desirable PROPERTY, situated in the best part of Henllis Parish, commanding extensive and picturesque views, and on the improvement of which the proprietor has spared neither time nor expense, thus bringing it into a high state of cultivation. The Estate may be treated for in its totality, or in the follow- ing Lots, viz. Lot I-An excellent House, fit for the immediate reception of a respectable family, called The Cwm," with farm buildings, substantially built, and nearly new; every portion of the wood used in the ertrcthw-being h"c,u:t of oak, and the other materials of the best quality; with sixty-six acres offine arable and pasture land attached, well drained, fenced, and with an easy access to the barn and outbuildings. Lot -A comfortable House and Cottage, called Harris and Ty-yn-y-Berllan," or the "House in the Orchard," with thirty-three acres of meadow and arable land, barns and other out-oftices conveniently situated, This compact farm possesses many attractions from situation, and other peculiarities.

Lot 4-A substantial House, cottage, barn buildings, cattle sheds, &c., well built and in complete repair, called Pant- youl together with eighteen acres of excellent meadow and arable land situated near Mr. Hanson's colliery, and offering very desirable and healthy sites for workmen's cottages. The proprietor, who has lived fur a long period on tho pro. perty, has, regardless of expense, omittd nothing calculated to improve the estate, whether as regards draining, proper fencing, manuring after the most improved svstem, the erection of commodious out-offices, beast houses, &e.; or the facility of communication between the high roads and the farms. The lands are well watered by two brooks, which skirt the main parts of the estate. Lime and coal are abundant in the immediate vicinity, and it ha becn observed that the corn is in car earlier on these lands than in other quarters—the aspect being sunny and peculiarly favourable.

Satisfactory reasons may be at once ascertained, for the pro- prietor's resolution to sell. Apply to Mr. EVANS, at his Offices, Great Dock Street, Newport.
