MR: GEORGE ROBINS- has received instruction„ 14"—^
OFFER to SALE by AUCTION, at the Auction Aidet:l
is London, on Tussnat, June 14th, at 'Twelve, in a variety of
Lots,
TO SUIT MODERATE CAPITALISTS;
a considerable tract of valuable FREEHOLD LARD,
CONSISTING OF ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND
ACRES;
in the province of Texat, being part of the grant made by the
'Mexican Government to a .Company, consisting of persons of
the first respectability in New York, entitle the •
NEW ARKANSAS AND TEXAS ND COMPANY.
The grant is situated within the latitu .. of 3L and 36 &greed
north, and 102 and 105 degrees longitude, with a climate
and soil equal in every respect to at of Spain, Portugal, and
Italyv and capable of producing sugar coffee, cocoa, cotton,
tabacco, wine, silk, and all the spices common to the West In-
dies; cochineal and indigo, together with all the trapical.ttuiti
in general estimation—such as pine apples, grapes, figi, shad-
docks, oranges, melons, olives. and almonds; and on the higher
lands every species of fruit-, vegetable. and grain known
IN NORTH AMERICA Olt EUROPE.
The territory is intersected-by numerous navigable rivers (upon
which steam-boats are already running) which- dlitdiarge them;
selves into the Gulf of Mexico, and that immense river the
Mississippi, with abundant steamers in every direction; affording
power, such as no other country in the world cirri boast of, for
mill and manufacturing purposes.
A reference to the printed .particulars will convey; in a more
extended form, topographical particulars, and a ;ninety of other
interesting information, that must prove of great utility: The
property will be divided into lots of 4,017 6.7ths American, or
3,615 ENGLISH ACRES EACH,
and the Company's bonds will be given to each purchaser.
English emigrants who have gone to NeW York to settle id
the States, Americans, and numberless German families froni
Hamburg and Bremen, to the extent of
MANY THOUSAND FAMILIES,
have already located themselves on the Company's lands, all of
whom are enriching themselves rapidly; and it it now appro.:
priatety designated
THE LAND OF PROMISE.
As the object of the Company is to encourage industrious
settlers, an exceedingly moderate price will be reserved upon
these lands; small capitalists, therefore, will__find that. for a
Moderate sum, they may sot round theinselvei-with a tenantry,
upon their own domain, that will raise themselves into an
portance, which neither this or any other spot in the world can
present to them. •

Steam-boats visit the different ports of the-Fexas from Nevi
Orleans and Mobile (from which they are only-distant a thirty
hours' sail), twice a week, and daily conveyances occur front
New York and Philadelphia, both by -sea -sad-raiitroad,..ter New
Orleans. All the high lands of the Texas abound in Silver Ore,
and it only requires the country to be settled to discover mines'
fully equal to those of
RIO DEL moNTE,
which is in the neighbourhood.
ALL THE STREAMS ABOUND WITH GOLD,
which is now collected hy the Indians, and bartered with Mexico;
and forms that great exportation that annually takes place from
that country to all parts of the world. Neither mines nor mine.;
rals ate reserved in the grant to the Company, consequently
there is no reservation to the colonists.
If aniong,t those inclined to be sceptical, it is suggested that
this tine territory may soon become tributary to and acknow-.
.edge America as the mother country, it may he rejoined, that
as far as the interest of those who propose to emigrate is con-
cerned, it would he

" A consummation devoutly to be wished; "
and would quadruple the value of .these purchases in one short
year.

In respect to the climate, it may be noticed that the springs'
and summers are dry; the winters mild, and frequently serene.
Snow is not seen twice in a century, and the duration.of frost
and cold seldom exceeds a few hours,—Particulars, with litho-
graphic plans, will be ready 28 days antecedent to the sale, and
then had at the New York and Mexican Coffee Houses; at-the
Mart in London; at the Waterloo Hotel, Liverpool Jhe

chester; and at Mr George Robins's Offices, London.
