This land lies near Deer Creek, on Muir
phys or Dry Bayou. 1t is cane land, a
few miles west of the plantation owned by
Mr.. Hundley.
All of said tracts of land will be divid-
ed 50 as to suit purchasers. B. examin-
ing the field notes Of the United States
surveyors, deposited in the Offices of the
Surveyor General and Register of the
Land Office, at Jackson, Mi, it will be
found that faithful description of the land
offered for sale has been given. All The
unlmproved lands offered were bought of
the United States in the years 1888, 1884,
and 1885, before the rage for land spccu.
iatlon bad made much progress. Compe-
tent woodsmen were employed 10 examine
carefully the lands before they were pur-
chased, and given one-third thereof for
their trouble. They had the pick and the
choice of the whole country, and had no
interest TO deceive.
We are anxious that those seeking fine
cotton lands should examine carefully
those we offer for sale; being convinced
that they are not exceled in fertility of
soil, congenial region for cotton, and
convenience to steamboat navigation, BY
any lands in the Union. As already
shown, they are not subject to overflow.
Large farms are opened contiguous 10 each
of these tracts. Fine well water is OBJ
tanned by digging about twenty feet
The range in these bottoms for cattle, hogs,
and horses, is good both summer and win
ter. The. cypress brakes near those lands
contain an immense supply of cypress
timber.
Planters west of the Yazoo assure us that
the country they occupy is more healthy
than the hills in Carroll and Holmes
