Augusta County. between the Long Meadow run
and Christians Creek. This tract contains
SIS A0-GlsSo

Of cultivation and the residue well tmbered.
This land possesses many advantages which

deslrouS OF procuring desirable residence of
making profitable investment of capital
II lies about midway between Staunton and
Waynesborongh and within short distance Of
the turnpike.-It is within three miles of link
ling Spring Church, In an excellent neighbour

OF the wood land.
The improvements consist Of plain comforta-
BILE Dwelling-tIouse, with all necessary out
houses, Spring house, and Smoke-house, large
and convenient Barn with Granary attached to
1t, and an excellent Orchard of choice fruit trees.
The greater part of the tract is undula,ing,

There are two never-failing Springs near the
dwelling-house, and others 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 acre Of ii is liable
TO damage from fresheis.
The location Of the Springs and the Wood
land is such as TO make it easy to divide the tract
into two or three farms, giving to each an abun-
dant supply OF timber and water.
In point of fertility of soil, saubri;y Of eli
mate, advantages of society and convenience to
schools, to church, and to market, this estate is
surpassed by few if any in the county, and the
