To be SOLD peremptorily, at Public Vendue,on Wednesday
the 11th day of April next,
HPHE SEAT of the late Dotftor Lewis fohnflon,
-*■ deceased, in Pefth-Amboy, containing TWO HUNDRED
ACRES of LAND.
This place is bounded southerly for near a mile on the river
Raritan,ywhere it empties intoihe bay about 18 miles from Sandy-
Hook, and affords two most agreeable foliations lor
Seats. "1 iiere are now on it, two brick houses, with gardens, and
a good collection of truit trees ot the bell kinds. The land is v; ry
fertile, arid a great part of it very good meadow ; and from us situ
ation on the river, has the advantage of fvfh of different kinds, lu
their seasons, particularly ofoyftersand chicken clams, which may
be picked in great plenty on the flats before the doors. It is a
delightful, health v (ituation, capable of genteel and tasty improve
ments; and as Perth-Amboy is one ot the best sea-ports in the
United States, and within 18 miles of the sea, the proipeCl ot 11s
ncreafin£ in value from that circumstance, is by no means iucon
fiderable.
Theie wil' alio be foM, other Lots, within the bounds of the
city, arid about Five Hundred Acres of Land on the oppo(i r e fide
of the river Raritan—part of which is improved by a farm—on
which there is a framed dwelling-house and barn, with an orchard
of grafted apple trees, ?nd will contain about one hundred and
fifty acres; the remainder will be fold in convenient lots, well
wooded 4iid timbered, and very convenient for supplying New-
York and other markets with timber for (hip build
and other lift s, the transportation by water being easy and
fof«'. The conditions will be made known at tiie day of sale,
ind the requisite conveyances made by
JAMES PARKER and) ~ n . .
bOWES REED, \ Trustees to the said Estate.
L'kewife to be SOLD, at the J&rnc tine and place,
ELEVEN ACRES of LAND, adjoining the above, the pro
peity of the Pioprictors of Eft New-Jersey, wheie n the pio
prietary house lately stood. Theelegani situation of this spot is
Hardly to be equalled; it affords a grand profpett of Raritan
R y, and of the Bay formed by the waters of Raritan and Hud
»n's rivers, where they disembogue into the sea to the East—and
moll delightful one of the serpentine courfeof the Raritan river,
r several miles, through a rich tratt of meadow to the Weft!
The great quantify of stone neatly dre fled, and brick, the remains
rhe houle lately burned, will be nearly fufficient for a new
uilding; and a large stone cistern, and well of excellent waits,
with a very convenient ftabie and coach-house, will greatly leflrn
the ex pence of putting the place in order for the residence of a
Gent leman.— 1 here are few situations so eligible, particularly if
the fummcr season—when the cool sea breezes, and the elevated
filiations, render them places of pleasing retreat, from the confine
ment and sultry air of the fouthein Hates and nelghbouringcitics.
