hubble lands in the State Of Illinois, which is to take
place at the different times and places therein emu
merated, between the SOth of May and 9Th OF June
next al the Land offices at Dixon, Chicago, ana
Kaskaskia.
This sale of government lands, has some very Gu
rious and remarkable features, which Will attract
not only the attention Of purchasers in this country
but even in Europe, provided there be time to re-
ceive orders in return by the steamers.

public time by Congress, and their shocking delay

have it. II, therefore, throws into market large
quantity of its valuable real estate, situated in one Of
the best climates Of the world, with water commu

ofthe greatest richness and fertility. Over twenty
islands in the Mississippi offered for sale, some
of them the most glorious, rich, and romantic spes

the midst of the limpd waves of the great 'father
