LONDON, July 26.
Eight French Emigrants of distinction have been arrested at Bareuth, by order of the king of Prussia, and sent to prison, where they are strictly guarded, Pichegru, it is supposed, was also to have been taken into custody, but he left Bareuth some days before the arrest took place. This cir- cumstance, as far as it becomes a question of politics, serves to prove that the king of Prussia, in dealing thus rigidly by the enemies of the republic, entertains no im- mediate hostilities to the consular govern- ment of France.
Talleyrand has written a letter to the Swiss government, demanding that the Valais may be ceded to France, for the purpose of establishing a grand road by the Simplon to the Cisalpine Republic. France gives to Switzerland the Frickthal in re- turn.
The first consul of France allows his mother a pension of 24,000 francs (1000. sterling) a year. On the first day of every month a servant brings her 2,000 francs.
The return of generals Regnier, Du- mas, and Boyer, in the Lodi, from Egypt, proves that a misunderstanding existed a- mong the French officers, which no doubt facilitated the defeat of the republican ar- my. Menou is known to possess no mili- tary talents, and it is probable that any other officer would have made a better stand; but then Menou is the officer the most determined on keeping possession of Egypt, a circumstance which the first con- sul recommends him to the chief consul.
The number of political journals has diminished in France, within the last four- teen months, by from a fourth to a third, while the journals exclusively devoted to agriculture, commerce, &c. have in- creased within the same time nearly one half.
It is confidently reported the house of Austria and Prussia have assented to the plan of indemnity for the prince of Orange proposed by France.
Lord Nelson's Address to the Baltic Fleet, on quitting it to return to England.
Lord Nelson has been obliged, from the late very bad state of his health, to apply to the lords commissioners of the admir- alty for leave to return to England, & which their lordships have been pleased to com- ply with.
But Lord Nelson cannot allow himself to leave the fleet, without expressing to the admirals, captains, officers and men, how sensibly he has felt, and does feel, all their kindness to him, as also how nobly and honourably they have supported him in the hour of battle, and the readiness which they have shown to maintain the honour of their king and country on ma- ny occasions which have offered; and, had more opportunities have offered them- selves, Lord Nelson is firmly persuaded they would have added more glory to their country.
Lord Nelson cannot but observe with the highest satisfaction which can fill the breast of a British admiral, with the ex- ception of the officers of the —, and * that out of 18,000 men, of which this fleet is composed, not a com- plaint has been made of any officer or man in it: and he cannot but remark the ex- traordinary health of this fleet, under the blessings of Almighty God, is to be at- tributed to the great regularity, exact dis- cipline, and cheerful obedience of every individual in the fleet.
The vice-admiral assures them he will
[*Two very small vessels, whose names are omitted for fear of any mistake in the co- py which has reached us.] [Lon. editor.]
not fail to represent to the Lords Commis- sioners of the Admiralty their highly praise-worthy conduct; and if it pleases the Almighty God that the vice-admiral recovers his health, he will feel proud on some future day to go with them in pur- suit of further glory, and assist in making the name of their king and country be- loved and respected by all the world. (Signed) NELSON and BRONTE.
By an official return from the Admiral- ty College at Copenhagen, of the killed and wounded on board the defence ships in the road, and in the battle of the 2d of April, we find that 370 men were killed in the engagement, of which 10 were offi- cers, 104 were wounded, and afterwards died of their wounds; and 546 were wounded, three of them are officers, who are still living. The whole number of killed and wounded appears, by the same official return, to amount to 1,020.
DEFENCE OF THE COUNTRY.
The following are the orders circulated by the commanding officer from the south- west district, and they are nearly similar thro' the country:
Winchester July 22, 1801.
G. O.—The troops in the south-west district, are again called upon, in the most pointed manner possible, to be in constant readiness to move on the shortest notice, according to the several battalions.
The commanding officers of corps are es- pecially required to pay constant attention to the state of the regiments, as it regards the readiness on the instant to move to any part of the district which may be threaten- ed by the enemy, and they will be held responsible for that particular circumstance of duty.
The commanding officers of regiments will frequently turn them out, and parade them according to the order for the light equipment, and see that the officers, as well as men, are properly appointed in every respect, in conformity to his Royal Highness the Commander in Chief's or- der.
The general concludes, it is on this oc- casion unnecessary to repeat what he expects from the zeal, ardour, bravery, and above all, discipline of the troops he has the ho- nor and satisfaction to command: but he relies on the unremitted exertions of com- manding officers, on whom he again calls to make known to the troops the nature of the service, they may expect in case of in- vasion from the enemy, to point out to them distinctly how much, at this crisis, the country depends on them for its preserva- tion and defence against a barbarous, im- placable, and a desperate enemy.
Every thing will of course be expected from the high state of discipline in which the troops in this district are; and should the occasion offer, there is no doubt, it is to be hoped, that every advantage will be reaped from it.
The portion of the companies already ordered, must continue to be practised con- stantly in the mode of service adopted by light troops, as these will be found essen- tially useful.
Commanding officers will take care that their battalion guns, with every thing be- longing to them, horses, drivers, and the men appropriated for them, are expert in their exercises. Ammunition for their guns must be filled without delay, and ball-cartridges ready to be instantly deli- vered out to the men when ordered.
The women, sick, and heavy baggage will be disposed of according to the orders already given, and be sent to Amesbury; if the army moves forward to the coast, any superfluous baggage found on the march, will be immediately burned, and as the General is resolved on this point, officers are again cautioned accordingly.
A most rigid observance of his royal highness the commander in chief's orders will be expected, and the commanding of- ficers of corps will, upon all occasions, be looked upon as responsible for a strict

obedience to them, in every respect whatever.
If any officers be absent on any other leave, except his royal highness the commander in chief, they are to be recalled without delay; and on no account is any officer to be absent from his regiment.
The officers of the royal navy, who command the Sea Fencibles along the coast of the south-west district, will immediately distribute the men, and report accordingly to the admiralty and the general; they will see the batteries put in the best order they can without delay, and point out separately and distinctly what they require for the defence and service of them.

FESTIVAL OF THE 14TH.
PARIS, July 16. Nothing could surpass the effect of the spectacle presented in the Champ-Elisees: all the people of Paris repaired thither: balls and music parties in every direction; pantomimes, different theatrical entertainments, and concerts; the ascension of balloons, fire works, and general illuminations; all producing an effect beyond any idea that could have been formed. In the morning the First Consul reviewed the troops. As he passed he was received by the people with universal shouts of admiration and applause, and the repeated cries of "Long live Bonaparte." On this occasion he presented a pair of colours to the first battalion of the chasseurs of the guards, and a standard to the cavalry. After the parade, he received a deputation from the Tribune, who went to testify their joy upon the re-establishment of his health. The commission of inspectors of the Legislative Body was then presented to him. Immediately after, the first consul gave audience to the Foreign Ambassadors. Several generals and other Austrian officers were presented to him by count Cobentzel. The marquis de Lucchesini introduced two Prussians, and the ambassador of the Cisalpine Republic presented to him general Lecchi. The First Consul afterwards gave a dinner of 240 covers, which was partook of by the Foreign Ambassadors, the cardinal de Gonsalvi, the Senators, the Ministers and Counsellors of State, the General Officers, the Members of the Legislative Body who were at Paris, the Judges of the Tribunal of Cassation, the Prefects, and a great number of other Functionaries, both civil and military.
July 17. On the 19th inst. will be celebrated, in the Temple of Victory, a festival consecrated to the principles of atheism and toleration, as propagated by Voltaire.
The Batavian squadron in the Texel consists of four ships of the line and four frigates.
The following are the particulars which the General of Brigade Devaux, commanding the troops, has sent the Minister of War, by a letter dated from Algeziras, July 7.
"I have the honor to make you acquainted, citizen Minister, with the memorable battle which took place on the 6th instant between the division under the command of Vice-Admiral Linois, consisting of three line of battle ships and one frigate Le Formidable, L'Indomptable, Le Defaix, and Lamourou frigate, and six British ships of the line and a frigate. Our division was attacked in the roads opposite to Algeziras, at 8 A. M. The engagement, which was one of the most terrible that has taken place for a considerable length of time, lasted seven glasses and a half. I want expressions sufficiently energetic to describe the valor with which our division fought; the land troops on board ably supported the gallantry of the seamen. Vice admiral Linois, by his personal bravery & his judicious manœuvres contributed essentially to the success of the day. Captain Palliere of Le Defaix, proved himself a hero, as did also the officer who commanded the frigate; the captains of Le Formidable and L'Indomptable, who fell in the field of honour during the action, call for the most sincere regret. The Hannibal, a British 74, was captured. two other line of battle ships were disabled. We have had a great number of killed and wounded, but the English had still more. We are threatened with a fresh attack, and the burning of our ships in the port. I had the good fortune to be with French gunners in the battery of Algeziras, which we attended to the best of our abilities."
(Signed) "DEVAUX."
"To the Secretary at War."
Besides the Hannibal, captured in the ac-
tion of Algeziras, two other British ships of war are disabled—they gained Gibraltar with the greatest difficulty, and in the most leaky condition—they were declared unfit for service. The Pompey is one of these ships; it was the that struck during the engagement. The three other vessels suffered considerably, and were towed into Gibraltar. The English had a heavy loss.
The republican captain Moncoufou was killed. On the 8th of July the French ships were already fit for duty, and the admiral's crew was completed. On the 9th, admiral Moreno, with five Spanish vessels, and vice admiral Dumanoir, with some French ships, appeared off Algeziras, to join vice-admiral Linois, and to take the Hannibal in tow into Cadiz to resist. Admiral Linois captured several English merchantmen during his cruise. Admiral Mazaredo, commanding at Cadiz, was very active in dispatching admiral Moreno's squadron and in sending provisions, &c. to the French at Algeziras.
The 24th of June, at break of day, admiral Gantheaume, being in the channel between Candia and Egypt, spied a ship of war, and instantly issued orders for a general chase—the French squadron sailed much better than the pursued ship. At 5 P. M. the proved to be a British 74—having no hopes of escaping, the enemy attempted to get the weather gage of us, availing himself of the moment that the French squadron was widely dispersed; the hostile ship crowded all her sails, she went before the wind for the purpose of endeavouring to fight her way through the French squadron, but L'Indivisible and Le Dix Aout bore up against and engaged her at the distance of 600 toises—the fighting ships soon came within musket shot, and after a tolerable action of an hour, the British ship was compelled to strike. She proved to be the Swiftsure, one of the finest ships belonging to admiral Keith's squadron. L'Indivisible & Le Dix Aout suffered but little, the former having only four men killed, the latter six, and 23 wounded.
Admiral Gantheaume put men on board the Swiftsure, and she was soon enabled to keep the sea.
The 4th of July a cutter which had sailed from Bristol, and was laden with provisions for the British army in Egypt, also fell into admiral Gantheaume's hands. In the month of June we took two 74's from the English.
July 25. It was reported yesterday evening that admiral Gantheaume had returned to Toulon, after having landed 6 or 7000 men within twenty leagues of Alexandria. It was our intention, before we mentioned this intelligence, to wait until it should have been confirmed by the official journal; but the Moniteur does not even notice his return. No matter, it is pretended that it is certain, and that the admiral has disembarked in Egypt the troops which were on board his squadron.
[La Clef du Cabinet.]
Citizen JEROME BUONAPARTE has been on board the flag ship of admiral Gantheaume's squadron, ever since its departure from Brest. He has shown a great deal of activity through the whole of the campaign, and particularly in the action with the Swiftsure, an English vessel of 74 guns, of which Admiral Gantheaume has taken possession. J. des Defenseurs.
BREST, July 16.
The spirit of order, of which the government has given such excellent examples spreads over every branch of the administration. The festival which we have just celebrated, in commemoration of the 14th of July, presented a spectacle at once affecting and majestic. Wearied with a long and disastrous war, we wish to turn our eyes towards the prosperity which peace must bring & on the advantages which agriculture, commerce, and the arts, must derive from it. Such has been the substance of the discourse pronounced by citizen Poliquen, Mayor. The procession, after having gone the round that was previously marked out, returned in order to the mayor's house, preceded by 6 or 8 thousand troops of different corps from the land and sea service. Public dances then took place; in the evening the trees of liberty were illuminated. The admiral's ship, the Ocean, should have been also, but the weather would not permit it.
Moniteur.
MANHEIM, July 19.
Letters from the north of Germany inform us, that the Hanoverian minister has sent a letter to the king of England, to request him to demand with earnestness,
the evacuation of that electorate by the Prussian troops, the maintenance of whom is extremely expensive. This step has been taken in consequence of the declaration of M. de Dohm, that the evacuation could not take place, and the fear that is entertained that the king of Prussia means to unite that country to the Duchy of Magdebourg, and indemnify himself for the losses he has sustained by the treaty of Luneville.
BASLE, July 17.
Letters from Vienna confirm the intelligence, that the court of Vienna has received official notification of the approaching arrival of citizen Champigny, as minister plenipotentiary of the French republic, and that M. de Ruel Schauenstein, has been definitively named minister for Austria at Paris, where count Cobentzel will notwithstanding remain till the pacification of the Germanic empire shall be brought to a conclusion.
LIVERPOOL, August 1.
It is in contemplation to issue a proclamation, calling on all persons of a certain age, and under certain circumstances, to take up arms in case of an invasion.
Several incendiary papers relative to the price of bread, have been stuck up in various parts of the metropolis, inviting the labouring class of people to go in a body to the Mansion-house, and solicit a reduction in the price of that and other articles of subsistence. These papers are in manuscript, and are posted up at night.
BOSTON, Sept. 4.
Mr. Thayer, who left Bourdeaux the middle of July, was informed, that the ratification of the treaty had been agreed upon, but that the formalities of signature, &c. were not completed at that time.
We understand it is determined that the execution of Fairbanks will take place at Dedham.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12.
Extract of a letter from Messrs. Ventocora Gomez de la Torre & Sons, dated Bilbao June 30, received at Philadelphia.
"We will thank you to make it public on the authority of our house, that the quarantine for American vessels is now dispensed with in our port, in case the crew be found in perfect health, after a first visit from the doctor."
Extract of a letter from Amsterdam, dated June 26, received at Philadelphia.
"It is singular how dull the demand for sugar and coffee remains. I have seen to-day sugar of a good quality offered at 13 groats, without buyer. If this continues, it will produce serious losses to some of your bold speculators, and lamentable consequences in America."
FOREIGN SUMMARY. EGYPT.
By the last official accounts from Egypt it appears, that the French have gained more victories, as they are called by the French papers in this country. These gazettes, by garbling, misrepresenting and contradicting official and other accounts, have endeavored to make it appear that the English have been defeated in almost every engagement with the French, and that, in fact, they were or very soon would be compelled to abandon the objects of their expedition. Nothing but the most perfect devotion of these papers to the interests of the French could have led them into a line of conduct so absurd and useless. It was evident from the movements of Gen. Hutchinson after the battle of the 21st March, that Alexandria would be the last scene of his operations. His object was to drive the French from every other fortified place before he attacked them in Alexandria. In this business he has proceeded regularly and successfully, and it is highly probable that with the assistance of the Turks and the army from India, he will finally accomplish his plans. The last official letter states, that the fortress of Rhamania had surrendered to the English, and that a valuable convoy, destined for the relief of Alexandria, had fallen into their hands. This shews the desperate situation of that garrison, for a convoy would not have been sent, under such circumstances of hazard and danger, if Menou had been supplied with two years provisions. It is further stated, that after the surrender of Rhamania two other forts were taken, with their garrisons amounting to 700 men, and that the whole number of prisoners taken from the 9th to the 20th amounted to 1600 men, besides stores, ammunition, money, camels, &c. &c. After these disasters the French made a rapid march to Gzar, and prepared to attack the Grand Vizier. After waiting some time, the Ottoman troops commenced the action in which the French were defeated.
MARITIME CONVENTION.
By the late convention between Russia and England the new principle of "free ships free goods," has been abandoned. The right of search is admitted, but its exercise is confined to ships of war. This limitation of the general principle by express stipulation will probably operate favorably to both nations, by avoiding many causes of jealousy and irritation. Ships of war, acting under commissions and commanded by men of honor, will be much less prone to insolence and injustice than unauthorized privateers. With this partial limitation the system of maritime law remains as it was before the gigantic coalition conjured up by the diplomatic skill of the first consul. Particular exceptions made by treaty have existed between certain nations, but these exceptions have not, cannot, and ought not to become the general rule. The new principle is opposed to the interest of neutrals; impracticable in its nature, and subversive of the long established laws of nations.
FRANCE AND RUSSIA.
The note of the Russian minister Kalitcheff to Talleyrand, wears a very serious aspect. It demands the execution of certain articles entered into by the former emperor and the first consul. By these articles it was agreed, that the king of the Two Sicilies and the King of Sardinia should again be put in possession of the respective states which they possessed before the entrance of the French troops into Italy. But it seems that the Premier Chief, notwithstanding his brief adherence to treaties, and love of right, has chosen to make subsequent arrangements which happen to
violate his stipulations with the Russian emperor. It is explicitly declared however by the Russian minister, that unless the Premier Chief treads back his steps, and faithfully executes the articles, there can be "no restoration of harmony between the two countries." This violation of treaty, this continuance of a system of robbery, will eventually call into the field the myriads of the north. Buonaparte will find that he is not treating with an insulted and plundered republic; but with a discerning and spirited emperor, whose resources and power place him above contempt.

From a late official account in the Moniteur, it appears, the French nation has been "covered with glory," by the capture of the English ship Hannibal, in the bay of Algeciras. Unofficial accounts from Lisbon and Vienna, state, that admiral Warren had fallen in with Gantheaume near Sicily, and obtained a decisive victory. It is true, the letters previous to this intelligence stated that Warren was cruising before Alexandria, still, as this information was not direct, he might afterwards have left his station and met Gantheaume in the manner stated.
PORTUGAL.
Portugal will, probably, be soon reduced to the condition of a plundered and enslaved colony. Whether the treaty is ratified or not, the Chief Consul will impose his own conditions. If he thinks it best that the Portuguese should be made free, by receiving into their cities French and Spanish garrisons, by ceding the province of Algarve to Spain, and paying heavy contributions, she will do it; because the Republic is powerful to protect the rights of man. [Palladium.]
THE FRENCH FINANCES.
We find the subsequent article in the London "Morning Post," of July 13. This paper, we think, is anti-ministerial. The French funds have fallen, in a few days, five per cent. on the 8th they were 42 1/2. An account of the Chief Consul's rheumatism is thrown into the Moniteur to blind the world with an opinion, that the danger of his life alone lowered the public credit. He was, however, able to attend at a council of finance. This flight fact leads to the true cause of the fall of the funds. We understand the finances of France are in a very distressed state, and that some of the clerks have lately said, the Treasury is in danger. By private accounts, of good authority, we are informed, that in the night between the 29th and 30th of June a deputation from the Chief Consul went and obtained, by menaces, eight millions of livres, in specie, from three public banks, viz. the Bank of France, the Caisse d'Escompte du Commerce, and the Caisse d'Amortissement. This was the whole specie these principal banks possessed, and they were given for it government orders on the receivers of the taxes at fourteen months date. The directors of the banks were told to procure money for the service of their houses as well as they could; but next day they waited on the Chief Consul to say, they must suspend their payments unless the specie was restored. At night a million and an half was returned, and affairs were left in this state till, on the 2d, 3d and 4th of July, a negotiation commenced for a loan, to be raised on the same sort of orders on the receivers of the revenue. The parties negotiating were Perigord, Remancier, Barillon, and Lemercier, the chief bankers of Paris. Not being able to come to terms, and the business transpiring, the public becomes alarmed. The acceptances of the bankers, which had been at a discount of 1/4 for a month, rose to 2 1/2 per cent. and cash was scarcely to be obtained by any means. Buonaparte offered the bankers orders on the receivers at 14 months, as all at shorter dates had been disposed of. The bankers answered it was impossible to discount at longer terms than two, three and four months. The loan he proposes to raise is about five millions sterling, and to provide for part of it he has offered bills anticipating the contributions to be levied in Portugal! Great pains have been taken in Paris to prevent these proceedings from becoming public, lest they should hurt the credit of the Bankers abroad, where they intend having money transactions, such as at Hamburg, &c. and the newspapers have been directed to be silent; but all the Agents of Fouché have been unable to prevent the dismay of monied persons, and the funds have spoken out their opinion by a daily depression. Great part of the specie seized
was sent to pay the troops and sailors at Rochefort and Brest. Truguet has succeeded Bruix at the former port. General Moreau has published a letter in Paris, accounting for the contributions he levied in Germany. The finances of France seems to be returning to the greatest confusion.
The brigantine Traveller, of Boston, captured in the bay of Bengal in November, has been condemned in the Isle of France. The plea urged by the French was, that there were no vessel's papers returned in her and that a certificate, signed by the captain and supercargo at the time of capture, acknowledged "a war existed between the United States and France." It is, however, confidently expected she will be restored, as the brig was taken after the signing of the treaty by our commissioners, and the supercargo failed from Bengal for the Isle of France, in February to reclaim her.
The following account of the very extraordinary escape of the prisoners from Newgate, in Ireland, on Saturday morning the 19th July, is copied from a Liverpool paper of August 1:
"On the ground floor in the inner yard, 28 prisoners were confined in four cells, to each of which there is an iron door leading to the upper apartment, at the foot of which there is also an iron door. On Wednesday last, about two o'clock, the prisoners perceiving that their cells were inspected by the turnkeys, conceived to be a good time to attempt their escape before the next inspection; and accordingly on that day, while they had the liberty of the yard, they agreed on their plan; which the want of a rope to descend by from the roof, prevented the execution of on that night; but the next day, one of their wives contrived to convey them a rope, on that night they made the necessary breaches, which they effected between seven and nine o'clock, having been locked up at six. Their plan was to break a communication between the cells, and thence to the stairs, which they effected with no other instruments than one piece of iron about 6 inches long, and their knives; with these they made their way thro' the thick walls that supported the arches of the cells. On ascending the stairs they were stopped by a door at the foot of the upper flight; this difficulty, however they soon overcame, as a wall built in place of the hand railing is but four inches thick: they next had to encounter an iron grate in the chimney of an upper room, but by breaking the walls at the end of the grate they got above it."
"Having thus opened a passage to the roof, their next object was to get rid of the heavy irons with which some of them were bolted; they therefore waited till the next night. On their return to their cells, they stopped the breaches with stones, and next day the deputy-goaler having an information that one of the prisoners had requested of a woman to bring him a rope for the purpose of escaping, he loaded him with irons; which, however, he contrived to file off, and escaped with the rest. About one o'clock on Saturday morning, 16 of them got on the roof of the Sessions-house, at the end of which, next to Green-street, they raised the lead, and fastened a rope to one of the rafters, by which they descended to the watte ground between the Sessions-house and the Sheriff's prison. The last of the 16 named Traynor, alias Murphy, distinctly heard the only sentinel in view (who was planted about 100 yards from the place they descended) regularly challenge every man as he walked away; they answered "a friend," and were suffered to pass into Green-street; but on Murphy's getting to the ground, the sentinel, who by this time had approached the spot, after challenging, perceived the rope, and exclaimed—"you came down by that rope;" which the other acknowledged, and surrendered. It is no more extraordinary than true that one of the prisoners escaped with a single bolt on."

SELE CT PLAYS, To be entitled, The American Theatre.
 1. The whole set will be printed in a handsome duodecimo size, on a superior wove paper, a new type, made purposely for the work.  2. The price to subscribers, neatly bound and lettered, will be one dollar per volume—to non-subscribers one dollar and seventy-five cents.  3. No money required until the delivery of each volume, and at the completion of the whole a list of its patrons will be given.  4. The first volume will consist of the following much admired plays— Castle Spectre, Heir at Law, the Stranger, and Secrets Worth Knowing.  5.

Subscriptions are received at the office of the ALEXANDRIA ADVERTISER.

The Subscriber will SELL,
OR EXCHANGE for approved lands near the Blue-Ridge, A valuable Tract of Land
in Northumberland county, two miles from the court-house, and near the bank of the Potomac, containing 1163 acres. This tract is divided into two plantations, on the one there is a brick dwelling house 30 by 33 feet conveniently divided, and two brick offices, 24 by 16 feet. A farmhouse 20 by 16 feet designed for an overseer, and other out houses.
The conveniences of this place are equalled by few, and the prospect excelled by none in the state. The house is situated on a high hill and commands an extensive view of the Potomac and the Chesapeake bay. There is a creek abounding with the finest fish and oysters, which terminates the flat land of this tract, that is navigable for bay craft, and affords an excellent landing place within half a mile of the house. On this part of the tract there is an excellent bearing apple and peach orchard, and a variety of other fruit trees. It has a great sufficiency of oak and hickory timber, for the use of the plantation, besides a large quantity of pine.
On the other plantation there is a frame dwelling house 32 by 15 feet, and a few out houses, such as tenants generally have about them. This part of the tract is as well situated for farming as any lands in Virginia. It is well watered, has a sufficiency of timber for its support, and flourishing young peach and apple orchards.
As it is presumable that no person will make such a purchase without viewing the premises, all that is necessary to add is that Mr. Spencer Ball, living thereon, will shew the whole, and is fully authorised to make sale thereof.
