A NEW TOWN!!!

TOHNSTONSPORT, Wapello CO. Iowa,
- is beautifully situated on an eminence
"a rolling bluff on the west bank of the
Des MONIES river, and in the heart of
country; which as it regards beauty of see
merry and fertility of soil is surpassed by
none.
The location is favorable to make it even
tually become great commercial port ON
the river, being the nearest point to Prince
ton (now Albia) the county seat of Mon
roe county, and the road between passing
through most delightful country, on one
continuous, rich, rolling dividing ridge, with
out stream to interrupt in the way.
Building timber, clay for brick, lime, sand
and rock; and what is yet still better, stone
coal in abundance, can be had in the imme
diate vicinity of this place.
When the River Improvement is COM
pleted and dam No II. with 81 feet lift, is
erected near this place, it will afford hy-
draulic power to propel any amount of ma
chinery, and Johnstonsport in addition to
her commercial advantages may truly he
called second Lowell in point OF advan-
tages for manufacturing.
Merchants and Mechanics please call and
see for yourselves the reality of these things
before you locate elsewhere. Lots will be
sold low and on very accommodating terms
to first settlers.
There will be a sale of Lots in Johnstons :
port on WEDNESDAY the Sd of April, 1880.
Sale to commence at . o'clock p. M.
