The Farms consist of the best limestone sell of ilce cost superior quality for farming, In a Aipidly improv ig place, into which an extensive emigration is now curing. The property is locatCd in Elk county, Penn rlvania, in the riffilit oT a thriving population of some 1,000. The climate is perfectly healthy, and the terri le plague of the west fever is unknown. It also hashn .bundance of the best quality of Coal and Iron.

It has five workable veins, of ca best Bituminous Coal, amounting in the aggregate over 22 feet, which makes 22,000 tous of coal under ich acre. This will maks the land ofinestimable value. The eminent state geOlogic.t, Dr. Charles T. Jackson, sf Boston, has made 'a geological survey of the land, and analysed the Mid, the iron ore, and the limestone. This report, together wills maps, will be tarnished to limed ices. Fourth—Three railroads are laid Out through tfirs property. The Sunbury and Erie Railroad gives us • market for our coal to tho lakes=it runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part df this road has been finish ed, and is now in running Oder. A heavy ferce is now working from Erie towards our land iu the western di rection, the means fur the completion' of which has been raised—it will soon he finished. The Allegheny Valley Railroad connects us with New York, Boston and Pitts burg. The Venango Road connects us with the West. There are already good Turnpike Itoads running through this property, various other roads have been opened to accommodate the emigration awl 'Settlement which has already taken place. There is no opportunity equal to it now offered to the man who Wants to provide himself a home in an easy way, and make a settlement where be can live in pros perity and independence in a climate PERFECTLY REALTIIY. No case of the fever ever having been known to occur in this settlement. It is not like going to the backwoods of the West, ttinong perhaps Intolerant people, where there is no society, churches, or schools, where the price of laud is high, and where the emigrant, after being us• hd to the healthiest climate in the world, has to endure sickness, and pain, and perhaps ruins his health and that of his fancily. _licit here is a 'thriving settlement, having three "towns. containing churches, schools, ho tels, stores, saw mills, grist mills, and everything desir ed. There is a cash market at hand. The lumber trade list year amounted to over two hundred million feet, of lumber. In a short time, owing to the coal, it will be. come still more valuable, as a number of iron works and Manufactories will soon be started ; they are at present starting Chola extensively at Warren. Even fur those who do not wish to go there, the payments are such that they can easily buy a farm to save their rising families from want in the future, or to gain a competence by the rise which will take place in the value of lands.

In olden times there once lived two brothers, one of whom was Lich and the other poor. When Uhristmas was near at hand, the pont. one had ndt so Much as a bit of -mgat,;-or a crust of bread in the house, so he went to his brilthet, and begged him in God's name to give hint a trifle. Now it happened that this was not the rst time that the tick brother had given the poor one something, and he nuts nbt partinuiatly delighted When be saw him coming. If you will do as I tell you," said lie to the unwelcome visitor, ‘tydti shall have a whdle ham that is hanging up to be smoked." The poor brother said he would do what he told him, and thank him too. "There it is," said the rich brother, flinging him the ham, "and now go to the lower regions." "Since I have promised it, must," oeserved the other, taking up his ham and going his way. After wandering about the *hole day just as it grew dark he perceived a bright light at no great distance from him. "It must be here," thbUght he. On going soitiewhat further in the forest, hetrever, he found an old man with a long white beard, who Was cutting wood. "Good tirening," said ho with the hum "Good evening," replied the man ; wither may you be going 1" "Oh, I'm only going to the lower re gions, only I don't know whether. I've ebme the right way," rephad the poor , simple hearted man. "Yes, you are quite right," said the old man, "the entratice is just here ;" and then he added, "when yOu have got down below they will all want to buy your ham, for swine's flesh is a great rarity there; but you must not sell it for money ; so rather ask to exchange it for the old handmill that stands behind the dtior. When Vitt come up again, then I will teach you what tit do With the mill ; for it has its use, 1 can tell you." On entering the under " 4 1--as e in g.:_t v nAlit the imps, great and small, gathered round, and began outbidding each other for the ham. "I had intended feasting upon it on holy Christmas eve, with my wife," said the man ; "but as you seem so bent on having it, i'm willing to part with it; but I will not take anything in exchange, except the old handmill' that stands be hind the door." The chief imp did not at all relish parting with his mill, and he began to haggle and bargain tv,lth the man; but the latter remained flint ; SP at last the imp was, fain to let him take the mill away. When the mat had emerged from the underground dwilling,'he asked the old. wood cutter howihe used' the mill, and, when he told,hiti, he thanked him, and returned home ti but let him make what speed he.would; he did not reach it till twelve o'clock ?t night. "Where in the watt; edit you have been'?" said `his will, as he came in "I've been sitting heri and waiting-hour after hour,andi had not as much as a couple of splinters 4 lay across each other under the gruelimt, to cook our Christmas dinner." "0," replied the ban, could not come sooner, for I hitl some business to m ind, and was obiged to go a long way' about it, but H. shall see what :I have brought beck - wit frio." . • . . He MA 'priced, 'the mill on the table, aria made it giind,- . firitpf all, candles, then a table cleth, thenfirdd and beer— in short) .firl that t)vas wanting for a Christmas 'feast ; and whatever he called for, the mill ground ifirnmediately.— His wife stood by, and crossed herself many times over, and was very anxious to'know bew her husband had come by the mill: nut this he took care nat to tell. .= = - matlers not how Y got it, wife'," said
