 Buffalo City is situated on the South side of White Rive1'~ seventy miles by land and one hundred and fifteen miles by water above Bates vile, Arkansas, at the foot of the Buffalo Shoals, eleven miles above the mouth of the North Fork. aud one mile above the mouth of the Buffalo Fork of White River, at the head of reliable navigation on White River, about two hundred and fifty miles by land from St. Louis, one hundred and twenty from Little Rock, two hundred miles from Memphis. one hundred and fifty miles from Fort Smith ninety-fiye miles from Jacksonport, and one hundred and forty miles from Des Arc. Buf- falo City is accessible for good size steam boats most of the year, and small boats of very light Graught nearly or quite all the year.
 By a glance at a map of Arkansas. per sons can see at once the destiny of Buffalo City, situated as it is at the foot of the Baifa- To Shoals, the head of reliable navigation on White river, surrounded by very large ex- tent of fertile settled country, commanding an immense wagon trade west and north from one hundred and twenty-five to one hun dred and seventy-hve miles, and on the north one hundred miles, and on the south and south west, from fifty to seyenty-fve miles. This vast extent of high, healthy country is unsur- passed in fertility in the west. Uninterrupted by speculators, lands are very cheap, produ- cing wheat, corn, oats, tobacco, etc, equal to any part of the United States; and for the raising of hogs, cattle, horses, mules, sheep, etc. is scarcely to be equalled anywhere, the truth of which is fully demonstrated from the fact that emigration of the most substantial and desirable character, has been pouring into this region of country for the last few years by thousands, from every part of the Union, and from information received, the emigration will continue unprecedented in almost any part of the globe The wants of this vast country, so orapidly settling up, makes it absolutely necessary that a trading point be established at the most accessible point nearest and most convenient to the masses on the beautiful and ever navigable White river. Buffalo City being situated at the foot of the Buffalo Shoals, the head of reliable nayiga- tion on White river, is the place selected by nature itself for trading point for that i'm menso country Nature has said to naviga- tors, here is the great Buffalo Shoals: thus far you shall go up this beautiful stream and no farther; hence Buffalo City took it's name. Had this natural site for city been judiciouSly laid off in lots and sold some years ago, as the present proprietor will do immediately, it would unquestionably have been place by this time of no small note. The undersigned. having become sole proprietor of the grounds and buildings by purchase, in part from Wm. Byers, of Batesville, and Tn part of the estate of Wm. Tunstall, of JaclIsonport, Arkansas, and further, in part by entry in the United States Government Land Office, at heavy outlay of money, is determined to lay it off immediately in real city styles yfronting the river in convenient size lots and blocks, with wide front row, as well asewide streets and alleys; also. squares for public buildings and promenades, etc., etc The river being straight, the banks having gradual descent, not subject to cave, with deep water close up to the shore, with the beautiful level rich grounds all above overflow, combined with the beautiful scenery partly surrounding the town, and pure spring water gushing cut near at hand, and never-failng cold pure healthy well water to be had in any part of the town, with fine woods convenient, combined with many advantages and conveniences with the health- fulness of the place, makes, beyond a-doubt, the prospects at this point for city, in fact, far superior to any other point in all this re- gion of country, and inferior to no point on White river, or any other in the State of Ar kansas
 l Mail facilities must and will no doubt soon be extended by steamboat up White river from Jacksonport to Buffalo City, Git already having been extended from Jacksonport up Black river to Pocahontas.) When this is done it furnishes transportation for freight and pas- sengers out to the Mssissippr rivef the year round, iustifYing at once the estab bishment of various stage lines from Buffalo City to the interior, north and northwest, west, south and south west These things are no fiction, but the conclusions of those best acquainted with ha Of mir nn II1U m
 Two boats are now preparing to run from IJacksonport to Buffalo City, connecting with the regular New Orleans, Memphis and Ma. llpeleon packets.
 | To persons desiring to settle in Buffalo City, we say don't pay any attention to those who would try to discourage you, who stant out as < living monuments" of '' masterly in activitY,'' to denounce everything as " visiona ry'' that seems new to their sleepy intellects and who war upon the moving spirit of tn, day, and would, if they could, strangle every enterprise, lock the wheels of advancement tC a s stand still,1 and block up all avenues o ttrade and commerce. They but thereby provt , their utter ignorance of the facts and devel opments of the present age, and their owl unitness for the times"
