Lands for Private Sale.
AS valuable a high land Plantation as
any in the three Spates, for the culture of indigo
or ruoucco, known by the name of TRUE BLUE,
situated in a most delightful and healthy part of the
country, about 3 miles from the Congret-river, in the
neighbourhood oi General Huger, Mr. Lord, Colonel
Thompson, and Mr. Manigauh—The tract contains
2200 acres by old survey, but it is imagined may con
tain 3 °r 4°° more, and would make three very com
pleat and valuable plantations—The present improve
ments consist of about 390 acres of cleared land under
good fences, a compleat dwelling house and other ne.
cefiry out buildings—the hard labour of pumping wa
ter into the indigo vat,,is fived by a dam being thrown
up between two hills of such a high: as to admit the
water through the trunks into the vats, fixed at the
foot of the dam—the like advantages from the natural
situations, will admit the fame on other parts of this
land—The whole is champion oak and hickry, except
ing 300 acres of pine land for lumber.
A valuable and commodious
Lot of Land,
Pleasantly situated on the Eart fide of Meeting°ftreet,
Charleston, containing in front on said street feet,
and in depth 275 feet—On the premises ftahd two kitch
ens with with a garden handsomely laid out, which
may be rendered, with very little trouble, very advan
tageous to the purchaser.—One, two, or three years
credit will be given on paying the interest and giving
approved security. °
In the present happy prospect of affairs, these lands
must be a most valuable fpeculation—for further in
formation enquire at my office No. n, Queen street.
