IN THE STATES GF VIRGINIA

A MOST IMPORTANT ESTATE for those of MODE-
RATE MEANS, and who would EMIGRATE, SUU-
CESSFULLY, holding forth TEMPTATIONS of the
MOST ENCOURAGING KINDS, as the LANDS are

FERTILE BEYOND COMPARISON, and supported by
NATURAL. AUXILIARIES MOST INFINITE.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to offer to Public
Competition at the Auction Mart, London, 'l'uEs-
DAY, the 9th of August, at Twelve o'clock, in '0 of 1,000
and 2,000 Acres each,
The Freehold Lands included in this importa Sale :extend to
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAN ACRES,
situate on the
MIGHTY WATERS OF THE REAT OHIO
in the Commonwealth of Virginia, int ected in every direc-
tion by INNUMERABLE C. ALS,
which empty their tributary waters just upon the. confluence of
the BIG SANDY AND OHIO RIVERS;
directly in the neighbourhood are
RISING TOWNS—GOOD MARKETS, NAVIGABLE
RIVERS, and NATIONAL TURNPIKE ROADS, _
There is a ditect communication by steam to

NEW YORK, ORLEANS,IIITSBURG, RICHMOND
BALTIMORE AND WASHINGTON.
THREE VAST RAILROADS

have commenced, under the sanction of Government, who have
contributed

FIFTEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
towards their completion. In three short years they will be
perfected, and will run through a large portion of this eligible
prOperty.
The lands are in the eounties,of Cabell, Harrison, and Giles.
They are fertile (almost beyond belief), the soil adapted to the
the production of everything that is useful and necessary for
city consumption ; viz., Barley, Wheat (averaging 30 bushels
per acre), Rye, Oats, Cotton, Potatoes, Maize (60 to 100
bushels per acre). Turnips, Hay (crops, 2 tons per acre),
Hemp, Tobacco, Fruit, and Vegetables, in the greatest per-
fection. They are also peculiarly adapted for the
RAISING OF CATTLE

of all kinds, and three years absolutely DOUBLE THEIR
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 salu-
brity 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 natu-
ral productions
THIS CHARMING COUNTRY

is not 'only rich in beautiful and picturesque scenery, but
abounds in objects interesting to the naturalist and antiquarian,
inasmuch as the mineral and foSsil wealth is nowhere 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 re-
venue, most valuable and continuous.
SALT SPRINGS

are found upon every acre of the estate. From the minerals on
this property a fruitful source of commercial enterprise may lie
contemplated. It should be observed that religious worship ►s
unshackled, and there is
A TOTAL ABSENCE OF TAXES.
VAST TRACTS OF VALUABLE TIMBER,

consisting of enormous Oak, Maple, Poplar, and other trees,
add in a very large degree to the already vast profit, being in
great demand for ship building, steam-boats, and exportation.
It may therefiire be stated, in great confidence,
,that this sale
will secure to those of very limited means wealth without
risque; possessing only the essential requisites of industry and
talent. A farmer having saved £lOO or £2OO from the wreck of
his fortune here, will find at this sale, the opportunity to realise
all his bright and early anticipations. • It is. not a speculation
founded on theory—experience has demonstrated that it is a
moral certainty ; and consequently, a mechanic possessing
£2OO and upwards, may confidently appear at this auspicious
sale.
One single fact *ill convince the sceptic that the United
States are sought as the resting place of nearly all emigrants;
during one mouth no feWer than
15,825 eASSENGERS

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 he 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.
