a of wood-land of about 185 acres, at the distance of two
miles. The farm is divided by the main ftrect leading from
Trenton to Lamberion, and Philadelphia, into two parts, nearly
equal in quantity ; the eaftwardly part being arable land, is laid
ctf in convenient fields, and in good farming order. The other
part, bounded by the said ftrect on the east, and by the river on
the weft, forms a fqua»e; which, from the combined effect of situ
ation and improvement, is generally allowed to be one of the moil
beautiful and defuable feats in the state. The mansion-house is a
handsome, well-fiuifhed brick building, 50 by 40, containing four
rooms on each floor, with excellent cellars, and a two story brick,
kitchen ; and commanding a very extensive and pleasing v:ew of

containing thirty-one paved flails, over which is a roomy loft for
hay, See. Adjoining the court-yard of the mansion-house, is a gar
den of about two acres, extending towards the river, in the highest
state of culture, and abounding with a rich collc&ion ot the
choicest fruits of almost every kind, and several large asparagus
beds, highly manured. At a convenient distance from the man
sion-house, and nearly in the centre of the square, is a new, well
built, stone farm-houfe, accommodated with a large cheese-room,
spring-house, garden, Sec. a complete stone smoke-house, corn
cribs, waggon-house, a capacious ice-house, and every other ne
ceflary out-building. The ground is properly divided into small
fields, all well watered, highly improved, and chicflvunder the
most approved grass. This square has produced annually, for se
veral years past, upwards of sixty tons of the best hay, besides
supporting through the summer season twentv to thirty horned
cattle, and eight or ten horses. It contains also two bearing or-
chards of good fruit. The river abounds, in the proper seasons,
with great plenty of all kinds of fi(h usually found in lrefh water
in this climate, and with a variety of wild-fowl ; both of which
may afford a pleafmg amusement to the fpfcrtfman, as weil as a
convenient additioft to the elegance and variety of his table. The
whole of the land, except the wood-land, is inclosed and divided
by good fences, great part of which is formed of red cedar ports,
and rails of chefnut and white cedar. The purchaser may have
the improved square separately, or the whole together, as may
best suit him. There is an inexhaustible quantity of good build
ing stone on the river shore. The purchase money, if well secured,
and the interest punctually paid, will not be demanded for many
) ears.
Any pei ton desirous of viewing the piemifis, may be gratified

or Mr. Inallman, who at present occupies the iarm-houle and
part of the land—and may know the price on application to the

This place is bounded southerly for near » mite on the river

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 its situ

their seasons, particularly of oysters and chicken clams, which may
be picked in great plenty on the fljts before the doors. It is a
(delightful, healthy situation, capable of genteel and tasty improve

United States, and within 18 miles of the sea, the profpeft ot its
increa!ing in value from that circumstance, is by no means incon

There will alio be lold, other Lots, within the bounds of the
city, and about Five Hundred Acres of Land on the oppofne fide

which there is a framed dwelling-house and barn, with an orchard
