An Immense Sale of really Fine Wines, sold under peculiar advantages, the quantity approaching 100,000 bottles. y MR GROROE ROBINS is instructed toSKLL by PUBLIC AUCTION, at the COM IY1 EHC1A L V 01 m ohe City of BIUSTOL, on THURSDAY. T 1 ,1. Two 'owing Days, at Eleven for Twelve o Clock punctually, A GENUINE SALE OF EXCEEDINGLY FINE WINES, hiddy important to all those who are amateurs of Port in its pure unsophisticated state. By this fortunate circumstance the public, and more especially those who patronize the growth of the Alto Douro, will have the power to replenish their cellars with wine of the most rare and estimable quality; it is an especial case, and one quite unlikely ever to occur again. As this sale of bottled wine exceeds in quantity any by gone auction, it may be well to give a succinct state- ment of the cause by which it is intended the onblic will be so much benefitted. The house of John VVintle and Co, of Gloucester, having declined business, and being in a state of independence, they have commissioned M r Robins to make an experiment similar to the never-to-be- forgotten one at Liverpool, of Mr Knowles-a reminis- cence arising out of that event will not be out of place. The reader may remember that in the year 1832 Mr Robins was honoured by having been selected by that eminent house to sell Six Thousand Dozen of Bottled Wines, which had been deposited in bond under the surveillance of the Customs. The result of this sale has inclined the respectable clients, whose cause it is his present duty to advocate, to follow in this judicious track. The finest vintage that high reputation and ready money could accomplish, was procured, and cargoes of bottles dispatched to Oporto. The consequence of this great mercantile operation will speedily be put to the test, inasmuch as the sale is to be free from any protect- ing price. It is in the original cases as imported, and has been about 18 months under the vigilant inspection of THK REVENUE OFFICERS, in a laree vault of fine temperature, under QUEEN SQUARE HALL, IN BRISTOL. It is essential to observe that this EXTRAORDINARY FINE BATCH OF PORT WINE is from the favourite vineyards of Geo. Sandeman and Co., and was deposited a considerable period at their Wine Lodgp, in Oporto. It was observed, when its de- parture was first announced, that it was one of the finest shipments that had left the Douro. The total quantity exceeds EIGHT THOUSAND DOZENS. Firstly, and of one quality, there are FIFTEEN HtTNDKED CASES. of three dozen each. This wine is delicate and high flavour. Also, ELEVEN HUNDRED AND EIGHTY cksi.,s. of three dozen each, the flavour very fruity. he sale comprehends an ageregate quantity far exceeding any previous auction Near 100,000 BOTTLES OF FINE OLD PORT. continued in the original packages of three dozen each, Fis bottled in Oporto, and to which Mr Robins earnestly intreats the attention of the public, and more especially those who appreciate fine old port; and he would add, they are not a little indebted to his spirited clients for having established (after great exertion and perseve- rance) the admission of wine bottled in a foreign country. in British bottles, to entry and use for home consump- ion upon the payment Of the dnty upon the wine only. The week previous to the auction will be set apart at the vault in Queen square to afford all those who shall be ..0 inclined to taste gratuitously, and admiie at their leisure, this, the largest and finest stock of bottled port in England. A sample case of the Wine, containing three dozen, « ill be sent to any part of England, to be charged at the average price of the sale. The Catalogues will be ready seven days antecedently to be then had at the Waterloo Hotel, LI verpool; thr Manchester Times The York lieraid office, York the Leeds Times, Leels, the Rush, Bristol; White Hart, IJath King's Head, Gloucester; Cheltenham Chronicle Office, Cheltenham Mr Hobbs, Auctioneer, Worcester; the B rmingham Advertiser; the New London Hotel, Exeter; the Hereford Journal; the Welshman, at Car- marthen; White Hart, Salisbury; Lion, Shrewsbury; Heaufort Arms, Monmouth; Cas le Hotel, Brecon; the Auction Mart; and in Covent Garden, P S.

NEW INN, Commercial and Family Hotel NEWBRIDGE, GLAMORGANSHIRE, CONDUCTED BY THOMAS LEWIS, Of the Nev Green Dragon, Cardiff. rf^HOMAS LEWIS avails himself of this medium I respectfully t,) inform his numerous Friends, Coin- mercial Gentlemen, and the Pttl)lic generally, tha, h(., has taken the above Inn, which will be OP EN ED on the tlitS 1 day of^MAY, 1840, replete with every comfort and convenience, and supplied with a general and well- selected Stock ot Choice Old NVIN: S ,nd SPIRITS, ALE. l'ORTER, and CIDE! in wood an.i bottle.-The Premises in themselves will be fouud of the most com plete construction, the Proprietor having caused them to c be finihed frorn a classical design e>pre^sly plannetJ for this hs(ab!i».hmt nt. They are provided with an ex- cellent range of Stabling, lock up Coach Houses and every Out office necess ry for the undertaking. The situation is one of the most picturesque parts of Glamor- gan, and of considerable local intert st and importance, bei: g contiguous to the extensive and fioll; isbing TII1 Works of William Cra Ashay, Esq., and the celebra'ed Chain Cable Manufactory. It is also surrounded by inexhaustible Collieries and other public works. The New Inn is situated <quidUtantly from Cardiff and Merthyr, taking in Nantgarw and Treforest. standing close to the main road leading from Merthyr to the ancient borough of Llantrisscnt, and adjacent to the great public Railway which passes through the luxuriant »nd beautiful Vale of Taff, supplied with never failing Trout Streams of no ordinary r.pute. 'I'llis vi'lley is enriched with scenery of the most romantic descripiion, delightfully wooded and guarded by stupendous moun- tains of awful i.eight, abounding with landscapes and waterfalls highly worthy of the visit of all true lovers of the sublime, from the solitary angler to the investigating antiquarian, for the latter ot whom there is ample scope tor contemplation and research. At a short distance only from the Ion. way be seen the celebrated Bridges of j ontyprydd and Rhondda, so universally admired foi their span and elevation for single arclus. and allowed to be great mas.er pieces of art. Over the iatter the laft Vale Railway passes 111 its course from Cardifi to Merthyr. Here also may be seen th far famed Rocking Siune, standing on an awful eminence, portending as it were I Immediate destructiun. This is said by o.d historians to be of drmdical caiistiuction, and supposed to be the remains of an anc ent Temple; but by modern anti- quarians it is generally thought to he more attributable to chance, or a frciik of nature rai her than a work of art. T. L. has taken on him^elt this short description o' the local Import of the immediate vicinity of the New Inn, as a guide to strangers and travellers generally, who may favour him with their comm.mds; and humbly begs to assure them that nothing shall be wanted on his part to render them every comiort and satisfaction that may lie in his power.

1.]'1'[ PER I ALP .11 R L I .11 ME JYT. 9 HOUSE OF LORDS—TUESDAY, APRIL 7. Among the petitions presented, was one against the Irish Corporation Bill, signed by 7,000 inhabitants of Dublin. In answer to Lord GlengaN, Lord MELBOURNE said, if the business already appointed for Friday came on, he should not press the the second reading of the Irish Corporations Bill on that day. Lord GLENGALL gave notice, that he should on Tuesday next move for a return relative to the regis- tration of Arms in Ireland, which would give the noble Marquis opposite some better information than he appeared to pessess concerning the tranquillity which he described as now existing in Ireland, The Bishop of EXETER then brought forward his motion on the subject of the Clergy Reserves in Canada. The discussion occupied the rest of the evening. The motion was carried by a majority of 17. The House then went into committee on the Printed Papers Bill. Mr PLATT appeared as Counsel for Mr Howard but not having had time to communicate with Mr Stockdnle, for whom also he was retained, the hear- ing of the Learned Counsel was, on the suggestion of the Duke of Wellington, postponed till Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS,—ToKSDAY, APRIL 1. Aftfr some business of little importance, Sir J. GRAHAM, proceeded to open the debate on his motion regarding the affairs of China. In moving a resolution that the rupture with China has been mainlv owing to the imprudence of Ministers, and to their neglect to furnish the superintendent, at Canton, with powers and instructions calculated to provide against the evils of the opium trade, and adapted to his new alld difficult situation,the Right Honourable Haronet began by adverting to the magnitude of the interests now affected. One-sixth of our whole commocia) revenue, he said, depended on thd maintenance of our relations with China. It woulr be unwise to deceive ourselves by adopting the vulgaf notion of her weakness. She had 350000 JO). o people, directed by one man, with one lane guage, one code of laws, one religion, one national feeling, a fertile and vvell-watered soil, and an annual revenue of < £ 00,(,()(),000, unencum- bered by debt. Was it prudent to quarrel with such a people as this? They had an universal jealousy of strangers, especially of the English, whose establish- ment and advance in lIilldoostan they had viewed with alarm. The East India Company, while* it possessed the trade, had been careful in its injunctions of for- bearance to its supeicargoes. Resolutions to the like effect had been moved in the House of Commons by ir George Staunton, when the trade was thrown open. At that time two errors had been committed experience had since sbowt) Clic-ill to be injurious ones but they were unrecalled. One was the instructions to the King's Superintendent to take up his residence at Canton j the other, the instructions to him to treat 'irrcily with the Vie. • <v. instead 1, as heretofore,through the Hong merchants. The Duke 'I Wellington l);n! left in the Foreign Office a memo- ■'indum, which should have been the guide of his -uceessor. The Duke had intended it only for hisowu • dleaoUf>S) hut had not shrunk from the responsi- I)ilityof leaving it as his recorded opinion. On both the lelore-moutiorif'd errors this n>. tnorandum was ex- ,licit but t(i both tiid l,or,l Pill ill(,i-stoti adhered Flic tni moraiidum recommended the constitution of 11 •ourt having criminal and Admiralty jurisdiction, which the su,,)(-rit)teii(teiit sli,itild exercise over the King's subjects; and it advised the employment of 1 stout frigate and a smaller vessel of war to be retained within the reach of the officer. All these recommendations had been neglected. Lord Strlllh. allau had strongly counselled that an autograph letter should be sent from the Kitm of I-Ugland to the Em- peror of China as a basis of friendly relations. Each successive superintendent had repeated the same ad. vice; but nothing of tilo killd had been done; and luring five years of correspondence the only sentence ■ordering upon the subject was a passing observation upon a proposal for a special commission to make ar- T;iti,,et)iel',ts witli tiie (,Iiiti(,s(, ;t'.()Lit til(- ipiuin trade, as a suggestion upon which "Govern- nent do not see their way with sufficient clearness to justify them in adopting it at the present moment. Captain Elliot soon felt the the deficiency of his powers. He had repeatedly applied for an increase >1 them, and explained the circumstances of the crisis which pressed him. The Chinese, WdPU urging him to take any step with respect to the English, remarked, that having orders from his kiug to repress what was evil, he of course had powers hy which these orders could be fulfilled. These repre- sentations were sent home, but they awakened no ittention from Government. Mpanwhile the opium trade was swelling to a dangerous height. When Captain Elliot urged this danger, with reference to the case of the smuggling vessel Jardine, Lord I'al- merston only told him to be cautious how he inter- fered beyond his authority, Instead of a naval force stationed according to the Duke of Wellington's counsel, the whole protection which British property obtained in the recent hoar of need was from a mer- chantman, whose commander had had the puhlic spirit to arm her with gUlls at his own expense. Captain Elliot, until latterly, had acted with pru- dence as well as energy, but his later coduct had undoubtedly been censurable, particularly his attempt at a blockade, and his engagement with the Chineso vessels on the 3d of November. We were now engaged iu a war of which the circum- stancos were as formidable as the stake was impor- tant. Had it been preceded by due precaution, and brought on by the just necessity of self-defence, he believed that the martial spirit of England would have girded her cheerfully for the contest; but when Ministers had pertinaciously neglected precaution, slighting all the warnings of such a statesiilll) Is the Duke of Wellington, and a 11 the experience of the merchants most conversant with the trade, and when the superintendent was left without instructions or powers to meet an emergency foreseen and foretold, he did not believe that the people would, patiently submit to burdens for tho continuance of a struggle in which success would be unattended with glory, while defeat would be followed by ruin. A long debate ensued, which was adjourned at a late hour. "1'##. On Wednesday the House of Lords did not sit.— The Ilouse of Commons was again occupied with the debate oil the Chinese war, which wa3 a second time adjourned to the following day. =t!2=!=!Msg

TO CORRESPONDENTS. How far back does A CONSTANT READER, in London, wish us to carry the information he asks for 1 We very earnestly request of our friends that they will forward to us the earliest information of any incidents, that may transpire in their several localities, which may be deemed of public interest. This might be done at the expense of a very small amount of individual trouble, while the most material benefit would thereby accrue to the great party in this country, who seek to uphold the Altar and the Throne, by the increased efficiency of its organ.

MERTHYR TYDVIL. AND BRECON, April 11, IS40. In consequene of the large space we have felt it necessary to devote to the important Parlia- mentary debates which have taken place since our last, on the Corn Laws, and other subjects, and to the proceedings at Assizes and Sessions, we are unavoidably compelled to omit our usual political comments.
THE REVENUE.
THE REVENUE. (From the Times.) We publish elsewhere the revenue tables for the year and quarter ending April 5, which present the clear evidence of improving re- sources in the country, though advancing at a very moderate pace. This will more plainly appear from the annexed table, in which we have carried the comparison two years further back than the official return, and it will be seen on inspection that the last has been the most productive October quarter of the wholein the items of Customs, Excise, and Sffunps. It exhibits also the effect of the recent changes in the Post-office, by which a toss has been incur- red in the present quarter, compared with the April quarter of 1839, of E272,000, which is equal to a rate of nearly XI,100,060 per annum, which disadvantage however, is covered by the excess in the Customs and Excise, so that the total revenue for this quarter, as compared with 1839, differs only by a sum rather less than £ 2,000, and exceeds the revenue both of 1837 and 1838. The following is the table referred to:- APRIL RETURN FOR 1837 !BV j 1B39 1810 Customs. 4;4tJ,505t 4,061,670 4,411 569 4,572.6-?:1 Kxcise 1,834.443 1.705.853 1.S4151I 1,929 996 Stamps, 1,618,462 1,648,194 1,640.253 1,658,18*1 Taxes 181219 130.576 176,440 179 058 Postofficc 367,000 369,000 39*2,000 120,000 8,437 629 | 7.915,293 j 8,461,773 8,459,865 There is to be found, consequently, in the actual revenue return no excuse for that in- creased taxation which Ministers are about to impose. Their own improvidence and profligate waste of the public money, ami not the decreas ing productive power of the country, are the true causes of all their dififculties. Considering how deadly the policy is which they have uni formly pursued with respect to our foreign trade, and which has shut out England frolli some of the best markets of the world, it is really wonderful what energy our commerce hak displayed; so much so, that there can belittle doubt, had they pursued a different course, of a sufficient revenue being obtained to meet even that profligate expenditure of theirs without any recourse to new taxes. The result of the experiment on the Post Office revenue cannot, on the whole, be cons;- dered unsatisfactory. Some of the calculations were. that the whole would be sacrificed by it, but this return shows a net profit of about half a m.llion annually, which must increase as tin system comes to be more generally understood, and when the inconvenience of prepayment is got rid of by the introduction of stamps. These are the only deductions to be drawn from this document, which relates to income only, and not to expenditure, or to that part of our expenditure which scarcely undergoes at any time material fluctuation. The increase o( ncome for the. year endin on ihe 5mi iust,uu. is £ 243,909. The item of deficiency bills required o meet the. charg 3 on the Consolidated Fund is less by about £ 300,000 than the correspond- ng qu trier of 1839, but this will not compensate or the increase in the public, debt. which is shown to have taken place by the returns lately oved for hy Mr Herries, and which we have ilready adverted to.

The following general directions on this subject will no doubt be interesting to our agricultural, readers. An advertisement relative to it, will bl!' found in another column. The crushed hones have been invariably found mow immediately beneficial as a fertilizer, whensufTercdlJoo remain previously for some weeks, mixed with enrtlu in heaps, exposed to the action of the atmospheres By being thus fermented and dissolved, they arts necessarily more speedily serviceable as Saod to ttoe plants to which they are applied, and this observa- tion more especially relates to the oat, barlev, aid other spring corn, since these do not remain oa, She ground for so Ion* a period as other agricultural crops. it, proportion is 50 bushels o? bones with five loads, of e:irth or clay; or 40 busl»|s to five loads of com- mon dung. tor wheat and pasture lands, the previous ft-rmen- tat 1011 of bones is, for this reason, not so essential too, the produc tion of immediate benefit. It is impossible to, give any general directions forr the quantity of bones to be applied per acre. siiice- qoil, situation, nnd climate must all be taken into tile farmer's considecatiioB. The following facts however have been aqmt-tiiiecz hy numerous experiments, at some of which I per- sotialiv assisted. 1. That crushed bones remain in the oil, fat (V length of time proportionate to the size of the pieces the dust producing the most immediate effect, thtr larger pieces continuing to shew the Vongcst advan- tage. On arable laud their good effects continue for four years; on pasture land fot eight. 2. On turnips, oats, barley, and wheat, the quantity applied has been from 25 to 30 bushels, per icrc ore pasture land, from 25 ta 40 bushels of bone dust,. early in the spring. 3. The best moda of application is by the drill, with the seed corn, 4. The bones should, when first used, be alwavs- applied for the sake of correct. information, in varying, qualities per aare and on no. account, should the far- mer omit to leave, by way "of comparison, a fatr por- tion of the fields without any manure.
