Aug. 14 $ • » — ■ 1 ' " '* ' " - ' 1 " A very valuable Merchant Mill, \ DISTILLERY and BREWERY, and furidry STONE il QUARRIES to be let I will rent my merchant Mill at the little Falls of Po t'owmac, for aoy term not l«fs than seven, nur more than eleven years, from the firft day of September next. The mill-noufe is 41 by 46 feet, three stories high, built with stone, and has in it three pairs of French Burr Stones, two J overshot 18 feet water-wheels, and Evans's machinery complete, with every other thing proper and necessary for carrying on the business with dilpatch. and at as little ex t penle as possible, all in good order.—From the mill to my landing 011 the Potemac river, (wheris craft, of any bur - then may deliver grain and take in flour) it is about 40 yards, and from thence by water tn George-Town and the City of Walhingtoa, about 3 miles, and to Alexan dria about 11 miles. This situation, aided by a fufficient capital, will command the produce of a very extensive back country, where large quantities of wheat and other » grain is annually made, the distance to it being from 8 to 10 miles less than to any market town upon the navi gation of the Potowmac. There are on the premises a large ft#ne Coopers' ih«p, a stone granary, and a commo dious miller's house. At the landing alorefaid a bridge is now building over the Potomac, which is in great for wardriefs and probably will be finilhed the ensuing fall. There are also on the premises, a Brewery and Distille ry, built with stone, in them are three stills, two coppers or boilers, with every ncceflary article, all new, and in good order, and fufficiently large to carry on the Brew ery and Distillery upon a very extenfivi plan. This prop-' erty I will rent for the fame term of years. Upon my laHds adjoining the premises, and along the - banks of the river, where cr'aft may lead with eal'e and dil patch, is an i-nmenfe quantity ol building and lounda tion-ftonet. Four quarries are now open, and as many more may be opened with eafc : the stone taken from thele quarries is better, and has the preference at this market, to any other stone brought to it. I will rent these quarries . separately or together as may best suit. On the top of the hill, and about aoo yards from the mill, is a stone Dwelling-hoyfe, large enough for the ac - commodatioa of a family : also, a kitchen, dairy, fiuoke - house, 4cc. and a garden, enclosed aad in cultivation, the foi of which is equal in goodness to any in this state. I will also reat this property. Adjoining to the Brewery and Distillery is a Smith's lhop, in which is a complete set of Blacksmith's tools, S which 1 will also rent, and if agreeable I will hire to the tenant two negro blacklxniths, one of them is a complete workman. Ii I rent out the stone quarries', I will fell three crafts, which wei e built for the pUrp®fe of carrying stone : they , will altogether bring upwards of 90 perch. Immediate poffcfTion will be given. For terms apply to the l'ubfcrib er in this town. The Mill, Brewery and Distillery, with their appurten ances, will be delivered to the tenant or tenants in good repair, and mutt be so returned, at the expiration of the Icale or leases.
