INNUMERABLE CANALS,

which empty their tributary waters upon the confluence of the
BIG SANDY AND OHIO RIVERS;
directly in the neighbourhood are
RISING TOM; NS, GOOD MARKETS, NAVIGABLE
RIVERS, AND NATIONAL TURNPIKE ROADS.

There is a direct communication by steam to
NEW YORK, ORLEANS, PITTSBURGH, RICH
MOND, BALTIMORE, AND WASHINGTON.
THE VAST RAILROADS, HAVE COMMENCED
under the sanction of Government, who have contributed
FIFTEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

towards their completion. They are now fast approaching
maturity, and run through a large portion of this elegible
property.
The lands are in Cabell and Kanawha counties. They are
fertile almost beyond belief, the soil adapted to the pro-
duction of every thing that is useful and necessary for city
consumption—viz., Barley, Wheat, (averaging 30 bushels per
acre), Rye, Oats, Cotton. Potatoes, Maize (averaging 60 to
100 bushels per acre), Turnips, Hay (crops two tons per acre),
Hemp, Tobacco, Fruit, and Vegetables, in the greatest pro-
fusion and perfection. They are also peculiarly adapted for
RAISING OF CATTLE
of all kinds, and three Years absolutely
DOUBLE THIER NUMBER.

Industry and a little capital, therefore, are alone wanting to
render this one of the _ _

FAIREST AGRICULTURAL PORTIONS -OF THE
GLOBE,
in a climate, it must be remembered, remarkable for its
salubrity and invigorating Powers, and the Country, in point
of Health, unsurpassed ; besides which, it may be called
THE LAND OF PROMISE,

from its extraordinary and inexhaustible discOveries and na.
tural productions.
FOR THIS CHARMING COUNTRY

is not only rich in beautiful and picturesque scenery, but
abounds in objects interesting to the Naturalist and Anti-
quarian, inasmuch as the mineral and fossil wealth is no-
where to, be equalled, and iron, stone, coal, lead, limestone,
&c., are found in every part in the greatest abundance ; and,
what is now of first-rate importance to the emigrant, in point
of profit or revenue, most valuable and continuous Salt
Springs are to be found on every Acre of the Estate. From
the minerals on this property a fruitful source of commercial
enterprise may be contemplated. It should be observed that
religious worship is unshackled, and there is
A TOTAL ABSENCE OF TAXES; ALSO
VAST TRACTS OF VALUABLE TIMBER,

consisting of enormous oak, maple, poplar, and other trees,
which add in a large degree to the already large profit, being
n great demand for ship-building, steam-boats, and exporta-
tion.

It may, therefore, be stated, in great confidence, that this
sale will secure to those of
VERY LIMITED MEANS WEALTH WITHOUT
RISK •

possessing only the essential requilsites of industry and talent.
A farmer having saved even from £2OO to £3OO from the
wreck of his fortune will find at this sale an opportunity to
realise all his bright and early anticipation. It is not a specu-
lation founded on theory, experience has demonstrated that
it is a moral certainty, and, consequently, a mechanic pos-
sessing 1:200 or upwards, may confidently appear at this
auspicious sale.
One single fact will convince the sceptic that the United
States are sought as a resting place of nearly all emigrants :
during one month no fewer than
SIXTEEN THOUSAND PASSENGERS

arrived at New York, and the ratio drawn from the above is
that should emigration thus proceed, New York in half a
year will possess half a million more foreigners.
Particulars may be had at the Waterloo, Liverpool ; the
Manchester Times Office, at Manchester; the Hen and
Chickens, at Birmingham; the Auction Mart; and at Mr.
George Robins's Offices, Covent-garden.
The title is clear beyond the possibility of doubt, being the
original grants from the Virginian Government in the year
1795.

CAPTAIN PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE, of
40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF
GUNPOWDER, in Chinese Catty Packages. The Sole
Proprietor of the above celebrated Tea*. is Captain JOHN
RHODES PIDDING. Every genuine Package bears his Signa-
ture. All others are spurious. The unwholesome trash
pirated under similar titles renders this precaution necessary.
PIRACY ! CAUTION 1 !

Captain Pidding made eight 'voyages to China ; in securing
the exclusive importation of these Teas, and if purchasers
will notice his signature, they will avoid counterfeits.
In an action brought by Captain Pidding, against a person
who counterfeited his packages, it was proved, before the
Vice-Chancellor, on the affidavit of Mr. Styan, a broker of 27
years' experience, employed to test these Teas,
" That Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S MIXTURE' is a Tea
of a peculiar flavour, and composed of many varieties of
black teas, all of the finest quality ; that it has a character
peculiar to itself—A FINE NATURAL AROMA. And
"That' HOWCIUA'S SMALL LEAP GUNPOWDER' is Gun-
powder Tea of the very finest quality, and that such Tea
could not be bought in the market."
"W. Styan." "Sworn at the Public Office, Chancery-lane,
this Bth day of May, 1837, before me,
" Filed Bth of May, 1837." " N. W. SENIOR."
It was also proved on oath, that Captain Pidding's Teas
were supplied for the Royal use.
Dr. Johnson, late Physician to Geo. IV., considers this
the best of Teas, and uses no other. As Author of " The
Economy of Health," &c., his testimony is invaluable, he
writes thus :

" Suffolk-place, London, Nor. 22, 1837.
" Ever since your Howqua's Mixture' Tea was
first introduced, myself and family have used it, indeed only
it, and we have no hesitation in giving it the preference to
all others. " Yours, &c.,
"To Capt. Pidding." " JAMBS JOHNSON, M.D."
Dr. Sigmond, M.D., F.L.S., in a lecture on tea, lately
delivered before the Medico-Botanical Society, stated, " That
since the opening of the trade, new varieties of Tea had been
brought to England, and, in particular, a Tea under the
name of the richest and the most esteemed of the Hong
Merchants, which had been very much and very deservedly
prized, and Captain Pidding's Howqua's Mixture' has now
becom e

THE STANDARD TEA IN THIS COUNTRY.' "
It is impossible to furnish more conclusive proof of its su-
periority.
The term " standard" comprehends every good quality.
These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's " HowctuA's
MIXTURE" (Black Tea) at 6s. per lb., is Bs. the Catty Pack-
age. " HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER," at Bs. 7id.
per lb., is lls. 6d. the Catty Package. Each Package con-
tains 11b. and one-third nett of Tea.
