A Most Valuable FREEHOLD ESTATE, and highly Productive Manufacturing Concern, being a complete and substantial Linseed Oil Mill, worked by the powerful Stream of the River Medway, which furnishes also water carriage for the Seeds and Oil, in the Parish of East Peckham, 8 miles from Maidstone and 6 from Tunbridge, in a neighbourhood where the demand for oil cake is constant and unlimited, consisting of a Mill, working two pair of stones, with machinery, at present capable of crushing 6,000 quarters of seed per annum, 9 presses, and a space for placing 3 more at pleasure, cisterns that will contain upwards of 100 Tons of Oil, and warehouses for 3,500 Quarters of Seed, counting houses, cooperage, stabling for 8 horses, foreman's house and garden, and ten cottages for labourers, removed at a little distance, the whole occupying about one Acre and a quarter of Ground.

West Kent Agricultural Meeting.
(From the Maidstone Journal.)
A highly respectable, through not numerous, meeting of the Agriculturists of the Western Division of the county was held at the Star Inn, Maidstone, on Thursday last, for devising means for giving relief and encouragement to agriculturalists.
On the proposition of Mr. R. Allnutt, seconded by Mr. James Ellis, Mr. Cator was called to the Chair.
The petition, which is addressed to the House of Commons, as then read, it states -
"That stated by painful community of feeling with the great body of agriculturists, the owners and occupiers of land in the western division of the county of Kent did, in the month of May last, offer to your honourable House a petition for relief, which was referred to a select committee at [illegible word], and, from the incontrovertible evidence of distress added before that committee, your petitioners, entertained the most sanguine hope that some measures would have been adopted to afford the desired relief. In this they have been grievously disappointed; but although the result of the appeals hitherto made in their behalf has been thus unfavourable, yet they trust, as the report of that committee is not amiss."
