AUGUSTA SPRINGS,
FOR SALE

MY business rendering it impossible for me
~ to pay the slightest attention to this proper
ty, offer it for sale on very reasonable terms.
Ii would be very valuable property in the
hands Of any one it might suit to occupy it as
watering place. The buildings are extensive
and costly. and well arranged for the accommo.
dation Of 100 boarders. The water is of similar
character with the White Sulphur, has high re-
putation for its medicinal virtues, and was much
resorted to so long as they were properly kept.
This place is situate about l3 miles N. w.
from Staunton, on the Warm Springs and Harri-
sonburg Turnpike, Immediately at the base OF
the North Mountain, and has long been regarded
as one OF the most healthy, beautiful and roman
tic spots in the western country.
The land is estimated to contain about ESQ
ACRES, and is capable of being made an excel
lent stock farm--from so to GO acres Of watered
meadow might be made, and it commands an ex.
tensive and valuable range for cattle.
For terms, apply to subscriber at Stanton.

A Fine Estate in Market.

4HE subscriber wishes to sell tho Tract o.
Land on which he now resides, situated in
Augusta County, between the Long Meadow run
and CHRISTIANS Creek. This tract contains
sos A0|1aS0
about 200 of which are cleared and in fine state
OF cultivation and the residue we'll timbered.
ms land possesses many advantages which
are calculated to attract the attention OF persons
DESTROYS OF procuring desirable residence or of
making profitable investment of capital
II lies about midway between Staunton and
Waynesborough and within short distance Of
the turnpike.-It is within three miles of Think
ling Spring Church, in an excellent neighbor-
hood, and convenient to several Merchant Mills
and Saw Mills-one Of each nearly on the edge
Of the wood land.
The improvements consist Of plain comforta-
BILE Dwelling-House, with all necessary out
houses, Spring-house, and Smoke.house, large
and convenient Barn with Granary attached to
It, and an excellent Orchard Of choice fruit trees
The greater part of the tract is undulating
without being steep or broken, and about three
hundred acres of it are of the first quality of Au
gusta land.
There are two never-faiing Springs near the
dweiling-house, and others on different parts OF
the tract, which afford an ample supply of wa.
ter. The Meadow is large and exceedingly pro.
ductive. and not more than an acre of it is liable
to damage from freshets.
The location of the Springs and the Wood
land IS such az to make easy to divide the rac,
into two or three farms, giving to each an album
dant supply OF timber and water.
In point of fertility of soil, salubri,y of eli
mate, advantages Of society and convenience 10
schools, to church, and to market, this estate is
surpassed by few if any in the county, and the
subscriber can confidently recommend it to any
gentleman who wishes to obtain such combina-
ton of advantages for fair consideration.
Any one desirous of purchasing is requested
to call and examine the land for himself, and he
can then learn the terms of sale which will be
accommodating. MOSES McCUE.
