tows:--ft Is intended, as we understand that this
land shall be devoted To all classes and to meet all

attract another class, and, with few superb man
slons, IL Is expected that Hampstead Plains, with
railroad facilities OF the most perfect KIND connect
ing 1t with New YORK city, wll. IN few years, be
improved from waste to garden, and be made q
home desirable for ali classes. 1t may be noticed
that locating on this ground ii was evidently not
intended to place these various residences In tile viii
derness with all the inconvenience incident thereto
as here the occupant Will have al the advantages
OF being within the village OF Hampstead where

&C., quite as good and convenient as In New YORK;
Such are but lew OF the public schemes which we
understand MIR. stewart intends carrying out,

that none OF them win be incomplete in any
respect.
Referring TO the orlcial statement OF the expenses
incurred in the sale OF the plain lands the same
paper says

honesty and integrity OF purpose with which they
have attended this business OF the town. ana their
apparent determination to Use every endeayor 10
have the town reap every possible benefit from the
safe Of our plan lands.
