vENllS Map was taken from actual survey,
IL and elbows all the principal Rivers, Lakes,
Ponds, SrcCnabs, Greeks, PrGi9eS, H0odionds,
Bh.fs, 5fouz,ds, Stone Coal Counties, Iow1s,
Sections, Roads, and Mills; with the meanders
OF the Illinois river, (aboye the military s,rvey)
to that important portage to Lake Michigan,
via Chicago. when the altitude and distance
of this site arc viewed by an observing eye, it
will hurry thciimagination to realize the i'm
portance, to the eastern as well as to the
western states, of water communication be
tween those points, which would open at
asmall expense, steam boat navigation from
New-York by way of the Lakes to the Mssis-
|sippi river.
The Map will be four by six feet, on scale
of five miles to the inch; executed on good
paper hung on rollers and delivered to sub
scribers, at fifteen dollars, payable on delivery.
On silk or bank paper, (portable) the same
price. Any person subscribing, or becoming
accountable, for ten or more maps, will be en-
titled to a deduction of twenty per cent.

The town of Vandalia isl pleasantly situatedon
the west bank ofthe kaskaskiariver, onsechons
8, 9, 10, and H. in township n. range e. OF
the third principal meridian, granted by the
United States to the state of Illinois for the
seat of government. The situationis high, dry,
and commanding. There arc several springs
of excellent water, and no part OF the state is
better timbered the country for many miles
around is beautiful, delightfully."- watered and
timbered, intcrspersed with some excellent
prairies; the river is navigable for many miles
above, and passes through an extensive tract
Of the finest lands in the state.
The town is laid out into squares of 500 feet,
divided into eight lots each. The lots arc 30
BY 152 feet. An alley of is feetin width pass
es through each square, north and SOUTH the
streets are run to the cardinal points, 80 feet
in width; the public square is spacious and
elevated, and about 400 yards from the river.
The bank of the river is about 50 feet high ;
the ground gently rolling, and the clay ap-
pears to be excellent for making bricks
The state constitution provides that the seat
Of government shall remain at this place tor
twenty years. But when all the advantages OF
the situation are taken into view, little doubt
can be entertained that it will remain the per-
manent seat. The practicablity Of making ex-
ccllent roads in every directions the na'iga-
ton of the river, the excellence Of soil, timber
and water; with many other advantages, which
are obvious to all who view it, will render il
very desirable situation. A privilege will be
given to the first improvers to use the timber
or the adjacent lands for building.

FOR HER OWN SAKE l LOVE HER.
/ love her for her rolling eye;
love her for her gentle mien;
I love her for her cherry lips,
Ripe, fit to kiss, at gay sixteen.
I love her for her rosy cheek;
love her for her lily skin;
But love her fonder, dearer still,
For the pure heart that beats within.
To have my image there imprcst,
Warm, IN the sunshine of her love,
In rudest cell I'd think me blest,
And fortunes favor far above.
Yes Time would fly on rapture's wing,
Misfortune pass unhecdcd by,
If to her bosom might cling,
Till her dear hand should close mine eye
