is now being extensively improved by good
reads, and some Of the best citizens from New
England and the Middle States are erecting
large improvements. 1t is a scene OF the
greatest improvement out of Philadelphia.
Seyenty-five houses have been built IN four
months. Practical farmers and business men
from the length and breadth Of the Union are
settling there. il is an important business
place, on account Of its being in the midst of
a great market. Every article raised upon
this land finds an immediate sale. The water
is excellent, and no such thing as fever is
known.
The soil is a sandy or clay loan, with a
ciay bottom and reteHfire of manures. 1t is
free OF stones and easily worked. 1t abounds
largely in the phosphates, and such is It's fer
tility that from the crops produced both upon
this land and the large area adjoining under
cultivation, it will be found not 10 be cIceled
anywhere in the production Of crops most
adapted TO its market.
The reader may be well aware that the earli
est and the best fruits and vegetables come
from New Jersey, which are annually eXpor-
ted 10 the amount OF millions of dollars. The
land, besides, being accessible in every way
for fertilizers, has an abundant supply of the
best quality Of muck manure.
Lumber and building materials can be had
on the spot at cheap price, from the mills.
Other mills are now being opened. and brick
yards being started on the ground. A person
can put up frame tenement for present con-
venience for one hundred dollars. On ac-
count Of the extensive emigration, this is the
hest course 10 pursue in order TO get place
to live in al first. Carpenters and builders
are on hand TO put up houses on the best
terms.
In settling here the emigrant has many ad-
vantages. lie is within few hours ride Of

Citations he is in q settled country, where
every Improvement, and comfor! OF civilization
is at hand; he is in healthy place. and is not
suhjecl 10 the certainty Of losing the greater
part of his family and his own health by
those malignant fevers which make the graves
of so many millions Of the young and hardy
in far oil regions away from home and friends.
Besides, he has mild climate and an open
winter.
There are three trains daily 10 Philadel-
phia, and TO all those who improve the rail
road company gives free ticket.
The reader will at once be struck with the
advantages here presented, and ask himself
why the property has hot been taken up be-
fore. The reason is, il was never thrown in
the market; and unless these statements were
correct, no one would be invited to examine
the land before purchasing. This all are ex-
pected 10 do. They will see the land under
cultivation they will meet persons no doubt,
from their own neighborhood; they will wiz
ness the Improvements, and can Judge Of the
character Of the population. Persons should
come prepared 10 purchase, as many are loca-
ting, and locations are not held on refusal.
