2.5uO Acres Timber Land
TSE SALE.

= ~L1 S.G.E lie
SEVERAL VALUABLE TRACTS OF
- TIMBER LAND, comprising about $500
acres, part of which is situated on Tobyhanna
Creek, and part on Muddy Creek within three
miles Of Lchigh River, in Penn forest township,
Carbon County, one of the great Coal Counties
of Pennsylvania, can be had at bargain, if APP
pcation be made soon.
These lands are thickly covered with the best
timber of that region. While it is believed that
10000 feet of lumber to the acre. can be cut from
large portion of the land, tho balance will aver
age not much less than this figure. The kinds of
timber found on the land are Hcmlock, Spruce or
White Cedar, White Oak, White Pine and
Chcstnut-but principally made up of White
Pine and llemloCk.
The Tohyhanna and Muddy Greeks are large
and rapid streams yielding vast amount Of
water power, and are capable of driving large
number OF saw mills. They empty into the Lehigh,
which stream, with the Lchigh Canal ailods an
outlet to the most desirable lumber markets.
There is, too, under contemplation, a railway
leading to the cities of New York and Philadelphia
which runs within one rHic and three quarters Of
the land. Through these avenues lumber can be
delivered in either Of the cities uamed, for about
81 per thousand ftet-thus enabling persons en-
gagged in the trade to derive greater profits than
| attend investments generally.
In addition TO the timber, convertible into eve
ry shape of lumber, there is much that will an
swer for spars of vcsses-a sort of timber that
I snip-builders have been obliged to purchase in
Maine, or at other distant points.
Unlike most of the lands on the Lchigh there
has, as yet, been no culng of the timber on this
property. II stands undistulbed by the wood
! mans axe. 1t is, therefore, the more valuable.
The lumber trade of the Lehigh has been carried
on to such an extent for years past that's scarcity
| Of good timber is beginning to be felt. Every
season necessarily increases this difficulty. The
! consequence must be an enhancement Of the
value of timber lands. Those un-culled tracts
with the advantage of avenues to plarket, such
as the lands offered for sale, possess, cannot fail
to be the sources of supply hereafter.
But the land is not alone valuable for the tim
ber it contains 1t is of good quality for farming,
nearly every acre being susceptible of high
state Of cultivation.
Capitalists desiring to make Investments, would
do well TO turn their attention to these lands For
further information apply to
