Great sale OF Real Estate.
There never has been finer opportunity
offered for Investment of capital in and about
Evansville, either f1r speculation, or for pur-
chasing property for immediate use, than
will be afforded by Mr.. Crawford Bells great
sale, to commence on the l7th OF April, in
this city. We presume no one will deny, in
view of the almost ~ psralleled rapidly Of
growth which has marked Evansville the last
five years, and theelemen,sy f prosperity she
possesses, which mssi carry her forward rap
idly till she become q great city-that
money cannot be more safely Invested in and
about any other city in the West, and with a
surer prospect of realizing handsome inter
est, than at Evansville. Property purchased
anywhere in the vicinity Of Evansville, Mt
the very highest rates asked at private sale,
is a safe investment. But at public sale,
such as Mr.. Bells is to be, opportunities ore
always offered for the purchase Of property
at less than its market value, and therefore
we are disposed TO believe that great bar
gains may be obtained, and handsome specu-
lations realized ut this sale. l.aE IS
We have had an opportunity Of examining
some of the property in the country which
will be offered at this sale, and consider il
worthy Of being presented to the especial no
tice Of all seeking Investment of capital in
this vicinity, or who wish to purchase large
lots for improvement. The lots in the en-
largemen ts are all good property, and deserv-
ing of close examination. rfi.
Forty acres OF very valuable land, within
only mile and a half from the city, will be
included in this sale, AMI offered Il. live acre
lots. This land is beautifully situated near
the cemetery, ard is elevated, dry, and the
best soil in Vanderburgh county. The city
is rapidly spreading out towards this property,
and we venture to shy that in FIVE years, ev-
cry acre of it will be doubled in value. We
would particularly direct the attention of our
German friends TO this land, as affording
some of the finest garden spots in the vicini-
ty Of Evansville, and very convenient to the
city. This property lies near the Z. g. c..
railroad. Valuable coal has been found in
the neighborhood of this and the Pigeon
Creek lands.
There are twenty acres OF excellent land
lying right on Pigeon Creek, and intersected
by the E. g. c. railroad, to be offered at this
sale in tracts of one and two acres, as pur-
chasers may desire. This land is admirably
adapted, as the advertisement says, as sites
for manufacturing establishments. pork
houses, or mill Sats, from its location on the
creek and railroad. Those looking out for
such sites, will find this property particular
ly recommended by many advantages. The
ltnd is high, convenient. to the city, being
being only two miles distant, and desirable
property in many particul RS.
But we have not space to enter into further
details of this sale. We hope to see many
strangers in attendance, knowing that they
can never regret the purchase of any proper
ty sod on this occasion. For further parti.
culars, see the advertisement. Mr.. Bell has
maps ond full descriptions of the property,
which he would be pleased to show to those
interested.
