l. great bargain in small Farm of
about 800 ACRES. Perhaps there is not a
farm in the county more desirable, either on
account of the beauty of its location, the
fertility of its soil, or the facility of getting
its products to either the District or Bal
timore markets. 1t is we'll wooded and
watered; and a good proportion Of it is
first rate meadow land. 1t is also healthy;
for on the adjoining farm, the residence of
the subscriber, out of upwards of fifty per-

not one single case of bilious fever the last
year. Those wishing to purchase such a
