so 900 ACRES OF LAND!

FENE undersigned proposes sell 10000 acres of fine
"a land in what is called the Western District Tennes
see among which ofhis best land situate on the
waters OF Looshatchce Big atchcc Forked Deer Obion
ana MISSISSIPPI rve-a large portion of which is the best
cotton land In the State and well adapted the growth of
corn tobacco, and every other production common TO tho
same latitude 1t is situated between latitude 80 and Sc
3O!! NO new country possesses advantages. Ten
years ago the whole population scarcely five hun
drcd souls it contains largely upwards hundred
'housand-an increase beyond example, considering the
whole District is not than ninety miles SQUARE -
Among the great advantages this fertile District has
over all others, the facilities afforded and nay
gaiionbounded on the west by the mother of rirers tho
great Mississippi and the by the Tennessee river
both navigabc at all the by the largest ca,s
of -boasthc main tributary streams are navqoIo
with keel and Hat boats-and the small class Of steam boats
ply regularly up Big Hatchec, far Bolivar which il
situated near the centre the District large portion of
the above lands lie this stream and south of it, immed
aey IN that section where there already many largo
cotton farms AT this time, this section of country offers 10
capitalists great inducementsland is unusually lowiho
population OF the most respectable character industrious
intelligent, and entcrping Schools and Academies arc
now III operation equal 70 the best in the State and emf
grants are daily coming from Virginia North and South
Carolina Georgia and Alabama and many farms have keen
opened the extent Of and 400 acres producing moro
cotton TO the acre than any other land in the latitude
we've years experience has tested the saubty Of ther
climatc-no new country blessed with greater
share general good health Another great advantage
peculiar this section of country is that navgablc streams
arc 50 dispersed that there is point which settlement
can he made that will exceed greater distance from ma
ygation than 20 miles and that the Mississippi river easy
OF access ny land carriage at many convenient points with
in this range Of country,-whercas at point below
Memphis, until you reach the Walnut hills distance Of
400 miles you approach this great river at high water
OF either side from the back country by land carriage
owing TO the extensive swamps and lakes both sides
below le southern line Of Tennessee. Another advan-
tagc may here he suggested TO cotton pIantcrs-fbe
great distance west Of the Allegheny Montains--as
degree west from said mountains is considered by iu-
dcious and experienced cotton planters equivalent 70
degree south for the production of cotton Such IL
my exalted opinion Of this fine country that no rcs-
sonabe price would induce this fine TO part from,
so much OF my lands, did not the situation Of my affairs
make il absolutely necessary raise funds to discharge
the heavy debts which have been long and harrasngly
pressing on me-For the last mentioned, the under
signed wishes TO make large SALE which will enable
him TO close up his business If 10000 acres can
be disposed OF at sale, will give great bargain on
the most liberal credits say from to years by such
instruments may be agreed on shall be absent for the
next sixty days, during which time, those who wish
purchase find list the different at my Office
Nashville, they apply to J.. r. Cheathan Esq. who
is in possession ofmy price and terms. When return,
will show the lands TO any DESTROYS Of purchasing.
