of Trenton, in New-Jer fey, occupied for many years past by
the fubferiber; containing upwards of 2GO acres of land, bcfiaes
a tract of wood-land of about 185 acres, at the distance of two
miles. The farm is divided by the main ftrert leading from
Trenton to Lamberton, and Philadelphia, into two parts, nearlv
equal in quantity; the eaftwardly part being arable land, is laid
off in convenient fields, and in good farming order. The other
part, bounded by ihe said street on the east, and by the nver on
the weft, forms a square; which, from the combined effect of fiiu
ation and improvement, is generally allowed to be oDe of the moll
beautiful and desirable feats in the state. The mansion-house is a
liandfome, well-finifbed 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 pleating view of
the rivr r, both above and below, as well as including the falls, and
also of Trenton and ihe neighbouring feats and improvements on
both fides of the river. Among the out-buildings are a new ftonr
eoaeh-houfe and stables, fufficient to contain fix carriages and ten
hoi fes, 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 (tone cow-house, upwards of 100 feet in length,
containing thirty-one paved (tails, over which is a roomy loft for
hay, &c. Adjoining the court-yard ol the minfion-houfe, is a gar

state of culture, and abounding with a r,ich collection ot the
choicest fruits of almost every kind, and several targe asparagus
beds, highly manured. At a convenient diftaoce from the man

spring-house, garden, &c. a complete flone ftnoke-houfe, corn
cribs, waggon-house, a capacious ice-house, and every other nc

fields, all well watered, highly impioved, and thieflv undt r the
mod approved grass. This square has produced annually, for se
veral years past, upwards of sixty tons of the best hay, befidcs
supporting through the summer season twenty to thirty horned
cattle, and eight or ten horses. It contains also two bearing or
chards ol good fruit. The river abounds, in the proper seasons,
with great pis nty of all kinds of fi(h usually found in frefh water
in this climate, and with a variety of wild-fowl ; both of which
may afford a pleasing amusement to the fportfmin, as well as a
convenient addition to the elegance and vai ietv 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 posts,
and rails of chcfnut and white cedar. The purchaC r may havt
