Sterling Land for Sale.
FEVI1E Subscriber owns a Farm


81. in the Town of Sterling, in this Coun-
ty, consisting Of 440 acres Of Land, lying to-
gether. One half Of this Tract i covered with
Wood and the other halfis Improved Land
The principal part Of the cleared halfis excel
lent Grazing and Grass Land. with some Land
well adapted to Grain. The present owner is
unwilling to monopolize the good Land of Stcr-
ling especially as his other ayocations VIII
not permit him to carry on SO large a Farm ad-
Vantageously, either to himself or 10 the Land.
He offers, therefore, to sell two or three hun
dred acres, including about an equal quantity
OF Wood and Cleared Land, in lots to suit
purchasers.
If any person, whose exclusive occu-
patton is farming, wishes 10 procure. for small
sum of money, large tract Of Land, capa-
BILE of being rendered doubly and even treb-
ly valuable, by little good husbandry--a
Farm, the single article OF growing Wood on
which would bring 10 the market more than
the price OF the Farm; and The buildings
which cost more than half the money the Sub
scriber asks for the whole--a tract Of Land,
situated in place where Produce of all kinds
IS at least 90 per cent. higher than at the
Courthouse in Worcester; lying within 8
miles of the street in Worcester, where the
contemplated Canal from Worcester to Provi-
dence is to commence and within miles of
two Aourishing manufacturing establishments
such person will probably find no more
advantageous purchase IN the Commonwealth
than this Farm; the whole of which together,
including the Buildings, the Subscriber will
sell for Sl4 an acre, and give a reasonable
payday for part of the purchase money, or the
whole, as the purchaser may wish.--The
Buildings on the Farm are two Dwelling Hou-
ses-three Barns-two large Sheds, fitted for
conveniently keeping large flock of Sheep;

the singing is performed in many of our
