mod. with a pretty fair barn, and sine good
box stall for good horses. It is really a
beautiful place. Tbe groanda are- hand
somely laid oat. and covered with trees aad
shrubbery of tbe choleeet kind. These trees
afford not snly s delightful shade, but s nles
harbor for mosquitoes. Th mosquitoes thus
far have not been so much sfceted by tbe
fever aad agae a to prevent their biting, la

bought it to please my wife, and shall leveft
to please my whole family. Terms t cask.
I am afraid any security on it would get th
fever and ague, and become shaky. Those
wishing to purchase will pleas apply im
