stop THE THIEF!
TOLEN from my Lot in Richmond County, on Sun
day night last, my HORSE. Said horse was an
iron-gray or brownish color, he had marks of genr on
him, and his fore-top cut off very short: he was shod
on the fore feet, walked fast, is a good trotter, and
would pact ; there was a white mark on his back, on
the riglit side, about six or eight inches square; alsc,
a small war*, on the right side, a little below the white
mark.
The horse was taken by a man calling himself John
Campbell, who says he was raised in Pitt county, and
has been in this neighborhood about two years: he is a
Cooper by trade, and says he has worked in Turpen
tine all his life time; he is a little round-shouldered,
has a stout body for a small man, and will not weigh
as much as I stated, 145 or 150 pounds: has a very
mean look, is very fond of negro company, and^ his
conversation has a good deal of the negro mixed
with it.
1 will pay $50 for the delivery of the Horse, or !J^50
for the thiel.

business conveniences and comforts for living, per
haps than any country seat in Cumberland. On them
is a neat two-story family mansion, containing seven
rooms—a fire place in each, with front and rear piazza
and portico, frame kitchen, sleeping apartments for
servants, smoke house and dairy, with a prime well of
water; and all handsomely enclosed. Also, on the

Sandhill Water. All the buildings are new and have
been erected within the last four or five years. To
these valuable improvements we will add 1,500 acres
of Pine Lands, and we will take $.3,600 for the whole,
which is iJilOOO less than the cost of the improvements.
We have also, on the premifces, and now in operation,
a Steam Saw and Grist Mill, and Turpentine Distillery,
which can be bought cheap.
If the right sort of a purchaser presents himself, and
wishes a partner in his operations, we will furnish one
with sufficient capital to conduct a profitable business.
To a Planter who has !iP14,(K)0 to invest in real estate
and wants the best Plantation on Cape Fear River,
with a healthy country seat with all conveniences for
liviug at hand, these premises woulu be a very desir
able attachment to the Ashe Plantation, containing
seven hundred acres of the best Cape Fear bottoms, and
now in market. These two Estates are connected by
a good Ferry Lauding and are only three miles apart;

For the Chtre of Dysentery, Diarrha-a, and Sum
mer Complaint.
Wilmington, N. C., February 1.
Mr. W. H. Lippitt,—Dear Sir:—Without any sug
gestion or solicitation whatever on your part I take
pleasure in adding my testimony to the efficacy of
your Specific for the cure of Dysentery and kindred
complaints. Having been for three years afflicted
with a disease of this character, and employing the ser
vices of three of the best physicians in this place, with
but slight advantage, I was induced to try your medi
cine, and after following the prescriptions and taking
several bottles, am now perfectly restored. I believe
your Specific to be a most excellent and valuable
medicine, and feel no hesitation in recommending it to
the public. So far from being a nostrum as too many
of the popular medicines of the day are, I believe it to
be superior for the cure of the disease indicated above,
to any other known|medicine.
1 am truly yours, &c. M. BR.. IN

Florida Land Agency.
'"■'^HE undersigned has established an AGENCY in
JL the town of Alligator, Columbia County, Florida,
for the PURCHASE, SALE or LOCATION of LAND
WARRANTS, the PURCHASE and SALE of LANDS
generally, improved or unimproved.
The fact now being established that a Rail Road is
to be coustructed immediately, connecting the Atlantic
and the Gulf of Mexico, running through the entire
length ot this County, east and west; and in view of
the great fertility of our soil, the unusually tine growth
of pine timber on the land, the healthfulness of the
climate, and the reasonable terms on which lands can
now be obtained, there is perhaps no section of the
Union which offers oqual inducements to the emigrant
from the other States.
Having had some experience in farming on the dif
ferent kinds of land, and acquired a general knowledge
of them throughout the County; and having acquired
unusual facilities for pointing out such as are for sale,
either of public or private lands, he feels very confi
dent of making it the interest of all persons wishing
information, or who may have determined to settle iu
Florida to call on him. WILL. 0. JEFFREYS.
