About one half Of this Tract is thickly
set in Wood-much Of white oak of the
original growth-lhe remainder is of the
very best qualify of farming land, surpas-
sed by but little in the State. The water
powers are good and calculated for iron
works, factories, or the carrying of any
kind o. machinery. This property is on
ly miles from Elk landing, 2 from
Christianna 3 miles from the depot of the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Rail Road, thus presenting by both water
and land an unusually easy access to the
markets of two Of our largest cities. The
raw material of iron, cotton, wool and
rags can be procured here as cheap and
as conveniently as at almost any location
that our county presents. This properly
will doubllessly be sold for less than one
half Of what property in some parts of

Persons who could be persuaded to pur-
chase because of the greatness of the bar
gain presented them as well as those de.
srous of obtaining the property, are in
vited to attend the sale. For several miles

within slave holding States there are few
slaves to be seen. This, as well as any
one of the other tracts will be sold in one
body, or if desired, in any manner so as
TO suit any purchaser to whatever extent
and for whatever purpose he may wish.
Pennsylvania farmers will find This land
to possess all the advantages Of their own,
and at the same time cost them much less.
