Cannclton and Tell City are only enc and a half
miles apart. The property here offered for sale is
the lower portion of CANNELTON, and lying be-
tween that Town and TELL CITY, so that it must
participate in the growth of both and either.
Cannelton, since 1851, has grown up to be town of
1000 or 1000 inhabitants, and is increasing rap
idly as any town ON the river Her Coal Mines

German Reformed, and German Methodists. The
Catholics are now erecting another elegant church

county have recently voted five to make Cam
Melton the county seat of Perry county. The cx-
ports of the products of the labor of this commun-
ity OF 1900 men, women and children, in the form
