ing fed on corn or fodder.
This celebrated plantation has averag-
ed bale and quarter of cotton TO the
acre in cultivation for the last twenty-five
years. The manager and slaves have en-
joyed fine health for many years, and il is
believed to be as healthy as any place in
the State. The present manager, Maj.

period of near eight years. and will show
the lines, cotton book, &c. to persons de-
sirous of examining H.. He will also show

The Orchard on this desirable place
contains about two thousand fruit trees
consisting of Apples, Peaches, Pears,
Plums, Cherries, Ounces, Figs, &c

Gov. M'Nutt, and are of choice kinds, and
almost every variety. Most of the trees
are now loaded with fruit. A few grape
vines, and great variety of shrubbery,
are on the place.
The place has been remarkably heal
thy, and the residence being only one
