A N old estate consisting Of several Thousand
N Of acres OF productive soil, has been divid-
ed into Farms OF various Sizes 10 suit the pur-
chaser. A population of some Fifteen Hundred,
from yariors parts Of the Middle States New
England, have settled there the past year, i'm
proved their places and raised excellent crops.
The price Of the land is al the low sum Of from
SIS 10 $40 per acre, the soil is Of the best quail
" for the production Of Wheat, Clover, Corn,
Peaches, Grapes and Vegetables. 1T is CON-
SIDERED THE BEST FRUIT SOIL IN THE
UNION. Tho place is perfectly secure from
frosts--the destructive enemy Of the farmer
Crops Of grain, grass and fruit are now growing
and can be seen. BY examining the place it,
self, a correct judgement can be formed of the
sproductiveness Of the land. The terms are made
easy 10 secure the rapid improvement of the
land, which is only sold FOR actual Improvement.
The result has been that within the past year,
some three hundred houses have been erected,
two mills, one steam, four stores, some forty
vineyards and peach orchards planted, and a
large number Of other improvements, making IL
desirable and active place of business.
The MARKET, as the reader may perceive from
it's location, is THE BEST IN THE UNION, produce
bringing double the price than in locations away
from the city, and more than double the price in
the West. 1t is known that the earliest and
best fruits and vegetables in this latitude como
from Now Jersey, and are annually exported to
tho extent Of millions.
In locating here the settler has many advan-
tages. He is within few hours ride of the
great cities of New England and Middle States,

in settled country where every improvement
and comfort is at hand. He can buy every arti-
Gle he wants at the cheapest price, and sell his
produce for the highest, lin the west this is re-
vorsed,) he has school for his children, divine
service, and win enjoy an open winter and de-
lightful climate, where fevers are utterly UNI
known. The result Of the change upon those
from the north has generally been to restore
them TO an excellent state of health.

Der can DO obtained at the mills at the rate of
$40 10 SIS per thousand. Bricks from the brick
yard opened in the place, every article can be
procured in the place, good carpenters are Mt
hand, and there is no place in tho Union where

Tho reader will at once be struck with the adj
vantages here presented, and ask himself why
the property has not been taken up before. The
reason is, il was never thrown In the market
and unless these statements were correct, no one

will see land under cultivation, such is the ex-
tent Of the settlement that they will no doubt
