A Grist-Mill and Saw-Mill.
YHE fubferiber has a grist and saw-mill which he
' is desirous to have removed to a situation more
advantageous, a little lower down Capolong-Brook
(on which they now stand) to a place where a forge
lately stood, the banks of the dam nearly compleat,
but the frame work, which is not very considerable,
is decayed. The tail race is finished and there will
be little or no diging necessary for the foundation or
ground work,of the mill. Any person of experience
and fufficient abilities who will undertake the fame,
may have a good lease, and be furnifhed with the
mill-flones, bolts, iron work and utensils. The
merchant cloth new, another not much the worse
for wear, and athird a little damaged, but perhaps
may be repaired. The frame work of the saw-mill
is good, not more than seven years old, and may be
easily moved and soon set to work. The saw achoice
Reel plate ; the stream large and lively, water seldom
fails, but may be a little pinched in great drought in
summer, and this may be easily remedied by bringing
another creek in, at % very small expence, as the
chief of the race is already dug, and will require
little or no dam. The situation is very pleasant, and
in a fine wheat country, on the bank of the south
branch of Raritain-river ; stone, lime, sand and
timber very convenie n t, and a good mason who lives
within half a mile, will undertake the mason work.
Also may be had in exchange for bar iron, a pair
of forge bellows, a little out of repair, and a pair of
spare bellows pipes, hammer wheel gudgeons, and
some other of the iron work belonging to a forge.—
Enquire of the fubferiber living in Kingwood, Hun
terdon county, New-Jersey, or of Mr. James Paxton
in Trenton. CHARLES COXE.
N. B. Land enough for a small farm, with some
ipeadow ground will be let with the mill, if required ;
and also may be affixed in the heavy work with a flout
four horse team. 2w±
