BLOOMSBURY,
THAT elegant SEAT at the Fall* of Delaware, in the vicinity
of Trenton, in New- J rfey, occupied for many years part, by
tlie fublcriber ; containing upwards of 200 acrcs of land, befjdes
\ tract of wood-land of about 185 acres, at the distance of two
miles. The farm is divided by the 11ftin street leading from
Trenton to Lambertoji. and Philadelphia, into two pans, nearly
equal in quantity ; the eaftwardly part being arable land, is laid
off in convenient fields, and in good farming order. The othir
oart, bounded by the laid street on the east, and by the river on
the weft, forms a fquate; which, from the combined effect of fili
ation and improvement, is generally allowed to be one of the moil
'..eautiful and desirable feats in the state. The mansion-house is a
handsome, well-fmifhed 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 view of
the riv r, both above and below, as well as including the falls, and
also of Trenton and the neighbouring feats and improvements on
both fides of the river. Among the out-buildings are a new stone
coach-house and ftablrs, fufficient to contain fix carriages and ten
horses, accommodated with a cutting and feeding room, and a ca
pacious loft for hay ; adjoining these is a very complete granary,
rat proof, and a stone cow-houle, upwards of 100 feet in length,
containing thirtv-one paved flails, over which is a roomy loft for
hay, &cc. Adjoining the court-yard ot Ihe tnanfion-houfe, is a gar
den of about two acres, extending towards the river, in the highest
hte of culture, and abounding with a iich colle&ion of 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 tbe square, is a new, well
h ult, stone farm-houfe, accommodated with a large cheese-room,
fvn ing-house, garden, &c. a complete stone smoke-house, corn
ribs, a capacious ice-house, and every other ne
ce.f ry out-building. The ground is properly divided into small
fields, all well watered, highly improved, and chiifly under the
most aporovrd grass. This square has produced annually, tor se
veral years past, upwards of sixty tons of the best hay, besides
supporting through the summer season twenty to thirty horned
cattle, and eight or ten horses. It contains also two bearing or-
I ;hards of good fruit. The river abounds, in the proper seasons,
I with great pi nty of all kinds of fi(h usually found in frefh water
tn this climate, and with a variety of wild-fowl ; both of which
may afford a pleasing amusement to the sportsman, as well as a
convenient addition to the elegance and variety of his table. The
whole of the land, except the wood-land, is inclofcd and divided
l»y good fences, great part of which is formed of red cedar posts,
and rails of chpfnut and white cedar. The purchaser may have
the improved fquaie feparate'.y, 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 frcurcd,
and the inteieft punctually paid, will not be demanded foi main
\ ears.
