The reader will at once be struck with the advan-
tages here presented, and ask himself why the prop
cry has not been taken up before. The reason is,

statements were correct, no one would be invited to
examine the land before purchasing. This all are
expected TO do. They win see land under culiva-
ton, such is the extent of the settlement. that they
will no doubt meet persons from their own neigh
borhood they will witness the improvements, and
can judge the character of the population. If they
come with a view to settle, they should come prepar-
ed to stay a day or two and be ready to purchase,
as locations cannot be held on refusal.
There are two daily trains to Philadelphia and to
all settlers who improve, THE RAILROAD COMPANY
GIVES A FREE TICKET FOR SIX MONTHS. AND A HALF
PRICE TICKET FOR THREE YEARS.
