the fubferiber.; containing upwards of 200 acres ot law], betides
a tract ©f wood-land of aboqt 185 acre*, at the diftan-e of two
miles. The farm is divided by the mam street leading fiom
Trenton 10 Lamberton, and Philadelphia, into two parts, nearly
equal in quantity; the eaftwardly part being.arable land, is laid
off in convenient. (icJds, and in good fat min&order. The other
part, bounded by the laid ftfeet on the east, and by- the rivpr on
the weft, forms a square; winch, from the combined effect of situ
ation and improvement, is generally, allowed to be one ot the moil
beautiful and deferable feats in the Hate. The mansion-house is a
liandfome,' well-fmiihcd brick building, 50 by'4o, containing tour
rooms on each floor, with excellent cellais, and a two story brick
kitchen ; and commanding 3 very extenCive and pleating view ot
the river, both above and below, as well as including the falls, and
also of Trenton and tiremriglrtrmirirrg feats and improvements on
bc)th tides of the river. Amdng the out-buildings are a new (Vone
coach-house and stables, fufHcicnt to contain fix carriages and ten
horses, accommodated with a cutting and feeding room, and a ca
pacious loft for hay ; adjoining theft is a very complete granary,
rat proof, and a stone cow-houle, upwards of 100 feet in length,
containing t hirty~one paved ftalis, over which is a roomy loft for
hay, &c. Adjoining, the conrt-yard ol the manfion-houte, is a gar
den of about two acres, extending towards the river, in the highest
slate of culture, and abounding with a rich collcftion ot the
choicest fruits ot nlmoft every kind, and fevcral large asparagus
beds, highly manured. At a convenient diflancc troiri the man
sion-house, and nearly in the centre of the square, is a new, well
built, rtone tarm-houfe, accommodated with a large cheel't-room,
spring-house, garden, &c. a complete stone fmoke-houl'e, corn
cribs, waggou-honfe, a capacious ice-house, and every other ne
cessary out-building. The ground is properly divided into [mail
fields, all well watered, highly improved, and chiefly under the
mofl approved grass. This square has pioduced amniallv, for se
veral years part, upwards of fjxty tons of the best hay,' besides
supporting through the fummtr season twemv to thirty hoi'ned
cattlt;, and eight or ten horfos. It contains alio two bearing or.
chards of good fruit. The rrver abounds, in the proper seasons,
with great pi nty of all kinds of filh usually Sound in Irefli water
in this climate, aud with a variety of wild-fowl; both of which
may affhrd a plcaiing amusement to the fporifman, as well as a
convenient addition to the elegance and variety ot his table. The
•whole of the land, exceptthe wood-land, isinclofed and divided
by good fences, great part of. which is formed of red cedar polls,
and rails of cli friut and white'cedar. The purchal'cr may have
the improved square separately, or the whole together, as may
best suit him. There is an ine'xhauftihle quantity of good build

and the iritercft punflually paid, will not be demanded tor many
years.

THE editor of this publication hopes, from the eltabhfhed re
nutation ot the several tracts of which it is composed, that
ir will be found a more complete fyftfem for the inftru&ion of the
female world, than perhaps ar.v other extant.
A voUime, under the prcfent title, was lately published in Eng
land and Ireland, and had a mod rapid sale. having been niiichafed
bv almost every lady of taste in those kingdoms. To this volume
the editor has added Miss More's-Eifays—Mrs. Chapone's letters
on the government of the temper—and Swift's letter to a young
ladv newly married. Thcfe have confidcrably enhanced its value,
and he: doubts not, the ladies on this fide of the Atlantic will be as
generous in their encouragement of a work intended for their ad
vantage as-thofe in Engiand and Ireland have been.
