Land for Sale.
-d
HAVING joined a club whose object
,5 to buy land and settle a Whole neigh
borhood in Texas; I have determined on
jelling the land on which I now live, if I
ran get any thing like a reasonable offer,
Jtlj will furnish the purchaser with one
hundred barrels of corn at three dollars
j3d fifty cents per barrel, and fodder at
"5 cents per hundred. I conscientiously
b(.lieve that to any man willing to buy
j3nd in North Carolina, I can sell as
j,c3p a bargain as can be bought within
jjfty miles of my premises, and were it
fl0t for my children alone, I would not
exchange my residence for any other
whatever.
This tract I offer contains
Mont 7O0 Acres i
Eioro than half cleared; and now in a good
condition for cultivation there is on it a
meadow worth at least fifty dollars a year
jar grazing or cutting hay. It lies im
mediately on
fhliiug Creek, in Nasli County,
thirteen miles from the Wilmington rail
road and five from Hilliardston, where
there is an excellent female school, and
uithin a mile and a half from my resi
dence is a male school inferior to few, if
any in the State that prepares young men
jjr Col!ege By clearing and manuring,
I have so improved my farm, that any

is a never failing spring of most excellent

A Roanbke Plantation.
HAVING determined to move South,
I nowfier for sale my very valuable
plantation on Roanoke River, lying seven
miles above Gaston, five miles from the
Petersburg Rail Road, and twenty one or
two miles from Warrenton. This planta
tion is in the County of Northampton,
but withir ne mile of the confines of the
Counties of Varren, Halifax, and Bruns
wick, Va. The tract consists of
2,5 OO Acres
including more than half of Pugh's Island,
which is classed with the best land in the
State for the growth of Corn and Wheat
The uplands are exceedingly well adapted
to the cultivation of Tobacco. The Res
idence upon lh5 land is one of the most
beautiful and elegant, the situation being
infirior to none in its general appearance
Only one mile from the dwelling there is
a Mineral Spring (belonging to the tract,)
and it is considered in its properties by
all those who have drank of its waters
equal with that of Shocco or Jones' White
Sulphur. I consider it useless to say more,
as those who wish to purchase will come

ceedingly anxious to sell, therefore feel
willing to make a considerable sa-crifice.
