Two elegant Situations,
In the City of Perth-Amboy, in the Province
of New-Jersey, being Part of the Estate of
the late Doftor LEWIS JOHNSTON, deceased.
fj -BE whole of this part of the estate contains 203
Jacres of excellent land, extending from High-
Street, in the said City, along Rariton River, near one
mile,weftwa^d ; a considerable part of which is qow in
choice English Grass, and the rest is well adapted either
for graft or the railing of grain, of which it has been
found to produce plentiful crops of all kinds. On the
premiles are,
Ift. The large, commodious brick mansion house,
standing about 100 yards from High-Street, commanding
a delightful view of the River and Bay ; together with a
convenient barn, stables and other out-houses, a good

frorr High-Street; together with a large barn and other
out-houses, a spacious garden stored with a well chosen
collodion of fruit trees, and a young bearing orchard
apple trees.
The fixations of these houses are delightfully pleasant
and healthy, 2nd capable of the most elegant and tasty
improvements. They are also very convenient on account
of the great plenty of fiffi they afford ; and particularly
the best us oysters and clams, which, at low water, may
be gathered in plenty before the doors. And their proxi
mity, to the town, among many other conveniencies,
affords an opportunity of enjoying the pleasures of society.
Which, all together, render them as eligible places for
Gentlemen's Seats as any in the province. About 161
acres of the land are allotted to these houses, and will be
divided equally between them, or in such other propor
tion as will belt suit the purchasers.
The remainder to be laid out in lots of about fix acres
each, fronting on Market-Street, and will be very con
venient for the inhabitants of the town for pasture or
mowing-grounds. On one of them are a dwelling house
and garden, suitable for a fraall family. These fix acres
lots, if not fold by private bargain before the twelfth day
of September next, will then be exposed to public sale to

of the premises, may apply to James Parker, John
