February 8, 1792 To be SOLD peremptorily, at Public Vendue,on Wednesday the nth day of April next, r j ""HE SEAT of the late Dotfior Lewis Johnson, ■*- deceased, in Perih-Amboy, containing TWO HUNBRtD ACRES of LAND. This place is bounded southerly for near a mile on the river Raritan, where it empties into the bay about 18 miles from Sandy- Hook, and affords two moll agreeable Gtuations for Gentlemens' Seats. There are now on it, two brick houses, with gardens, and a good colle&ion of fruit trees of the best kinds. The land is very fertile, and a great part of it very good meadow ; and from i's situ ation on the river, has the advantage of fifh of different kinds, in t heir seasons, particularly of oysters and chicken clams, which may be picked in great plenty on the flats before the doors. It is a delightful, healthy situation, capable of genteel and tasty improve ments; and as Perth-Amboy is one of the best sea-ports in the United States, and within 18 miles of the sea, the profpett of its increasing in value from that circumstance, is by no means incon (iderable. There will also be fold, other Lots, within the bounds of the city, and about Five Hundred Acres of Land on the opposite fide of the river Raritan—part of which is improved bv a farm—on which there is a framed dwelling-house and barn, with an orchard of grafted apple trees, and will contain about one hundred and fifty acres ; the remainder will be fold in convenient lots, well wooded and timbered, and very convenient for supplying New- York and other markets with fire-wood, timber for (hip build ng, and other uses, the transportation by water being easy and afe. The conditions will be made known at the day of sale, ,nd the requisite conveyances made by JAMES PARKER and ) A r BOWES REED \ the said Eiiate« Likewise t» it SOLD, «t tie Jime time and plan, £L£V£N ACRES of LAND, adjoining the above, the pro perty of the Proprietors of East New-Jersey, wherenn the pro prietary house lately flood. The elegant situation of this spot is hardly to be equalled ; it affords a grand profpeft of Raritan Bay, and of the Bay formed by the waters of Raritan and Hud fon'a rivers, where they disembogue into the sea to the East and a jnoft delightful one of the Terpentine coiirfeof the Raritan river, for several miles, through a rich traQ of meadow to the Weft. The great quantity of stone neatly dressed, and brick, the remains of the house lately burned, will be nearly fufficient for a new building; and a large lone cistern, and well of excellent water, with a very convenient ftabl£and enach-houfe, will greatly lessen the expence of putting the place in order for the residence of a Gentleman.—There are few lituatioas so eligible, particularly in the rummer season—when the cool sea breezes, and the elevated fnuations, render them placet of pleasing retreat, from the confine ment and sultry air of the southern states and neighbouring cities.
