ing large improvements. Itisa scene of the grs..
test improvement out Of PhilGdelph Seventy
five houses have been built in four months Pr,e.
teal farmers and business men from the lenrth
and breadth Of the Union are set ding there. Ii

yer is known.
The soil is a sandy or clay loan, with clay
bottom and reteHtire Of manures 1t is free Of
stones and easily worked. 1t abounds largely in
the phosphates, and such is its fertility that from
the crops produced both upon this land and the
large area adjoining under cultivation, it will b,
found not to be excelled anywhere in the prUdur-
tion Of crops most adapted to its market
The reader may be well aware that the e.ri-
est and the best fruits and vegetables como from

amount Of millions Of dollars; the land, beIidss
being accessible in every way for fertiii1er,, has

In settling here the emigrant has many Ad-
rantages. lie is within q few hours ride Of the
great cities in ths Middle States and New Eng
land; he s near his old friends and associations;
he is in a settled country, where every improve
ment and comfort of civilization is at hand; be
is in a healthy place, and is not subject to 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 of regions away from
home and friends. Besi es, he has a mild eli-
mate and an open winter.
There are three trains daily to PhiladephA
and to all tfose who improve, the railroad COM
pany gives free ticket.
The reader viii at once be struck with the ad-
vantages here presented, and ask himself why
the property has not been taken up before; the
reason is, il was never thrown into the market;
and unless these statements were correct no one
would be invited to examine the land before pur-
chasing. All are expected to do this. They will
see the land under cultivation; they will meet
persons no doubt from their own neighborhood
they will witness the improvements, and can
judge Of the character Of the population. Per-
sons should come prepared to purchase as many
are locating, and locations are not held on refu-
sal.
