A FARM WITHIN THE REACH
'Of Every Man !.
A 27 I‘ll t ACRES of good . FARK AND COAL
v LAND in Elk comity, Benzinger
township, Pennsylvania, for sale, giving a Farm
of 25 Acres•for 8200, payable in installments
of $1 per week. or at the same rate monthly:
- Farms - of 50, 75,100, or - more - acres adjoin
ing. in proportion. Each Farm fronts upon a
oad - thirty-feet-in-width.
The Soil is a rich limestone loam, and es
pecially adapted to cultivation, as it is neither
hilly nor stony. but gently rolling or fine table
land. Around and through this property
there are already some 20,000 acres under cul
tivation, and its fertility has been established
from the crops produced. Upon this subject
it is easy to be fully satisfied. There is a
ready cash market for produce which is much
better than trade. It is the
Cheapest, as land 'of a similar quality is
selling at much higher prices adjoining, and
es i eciall such as contains coal.
The 00' (li: 7 -This in particular is tits oa
District, several veins underlaying the whole
property, and the attention of miners, and
hose — ammirrted - with coal landsosspecially
called to it. It has the advantage of being the
neare.yt to the great lake market, with which
it will be connected by,,the Sunbury and Erie
Railroad now under contract arid in course of
completion from Erie to Ridgeway. with de
sce nding, - gralle - ttrwhofee
bituminous coal is the best, for instance Eng
land and other countries. The price per acre
is trifling for the coal alone, as it will certain
ly, in so favorable a locations within a short
time pay largely. This is important as an
coal trade. wilLsoon open. Four coal
companies have already been started to work
mines in the vicinity, and there are now fifteen
openings around St. Mary's.
The Timber, Stockholders also receive.—
There is no reservation whatever either of tim
ber or coal. It is very valuable, and will pay
for a great part of the land. On account of the
excellence of streams there are fine opportuni
ties for mills.
Irr - HNTWthelocation is - much recommend
ed by Physicians. The chillsand fevers are
unknown, also pulmanary'complaints, being
proterted from the north east winds by the Al
leghenies. The water is pure and amongst
the best, the land abounding in fine springs.
Four Railroads will shortly be completed,
connecting it by a direct, communication with
"New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Erie,
Buffalo, and all the cities on the Lakes. They
are the Sunbury and Erie, the Allegheny Val
ley, the Pittsburg and Buffalo, and the Venan
go. Energetic exertions are also being made
for the building of the Tyrone and Clearfield.
which also passes through this property. The
effect of this upon trade. and general develop
ment, as well as the coal. may be imagined.
The large and flourishing town of St. Mary's
is in the centre - of the tract, numbering near
3,000 inhabitants. It has Hotels, good public
schools, saw and grist mills, stores, well stock
ed and every thing desired. There are 235
I half see lots in the town of St: Mary's, which
will be sold and the proceeds equally divided
amongst those who buy farms. Ridgeway, the
county seat, where an extensive business is
done, adjoins the tract on the west. The whole
district is intersected by good
_turnpike, and
other roads.
This is a rare opportunity offered to those
who wish to tarm or_have_a_good investment
for the future. By making proper inquiries,
and considering the advantages of good soil,
an abundance of coal, healthfulness of climate,
Railroad facilities, and its location, z correct
judgment may be formed of its present advan
tages and ultimate increase.
. .By writing to the office directions will be
given to those who
.wish to visit the land. A
system of excursions will shortly be adopted.
There is an
,excellent opening for various
branches of mechanical business, especially
tanneries, whee!wrights, axe handle makers,
shoemakers, carpenters and others.

This is to certify that, having been over the
tract owned by the Ridgeway Farm and Coal
Company. and given it a thorough examination,
we find the representations of that Company
to be correct. We find the soil to be the most
fertile—the Coal and Iron Ore to lie in inex
haustible quantities, through the whole dis
trict—the Farms
.in excellent order, and the
intelligence and prosperity of the people to be
•of the most gratifying character. We know
that there is no healthier location in the State.
and we consider it a most desirable place of
settlement.
We make this declaration, as we believe
there may be many persons who are unac
quainted with these lands, and we are satisfied,
from our knowledge of the subject, that infor
mation upon it will be a public benefit.

Farm Lands for Sale
The Illinois Cehtral Railroad Company
IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL
Over Two Millions of Acres•
OF FARMING LANDS,
__k —TaAcrs oF_4o_AcitEs AND-UPWARDS, ON --
LONG CREDITS AND AT LOW RATES OF INTERES
rrHESE lands were granted by the Govern
J.. ment, to aid in the construction of this
Railroad. and include some of the 'richest anoi
most fertile Prairies in the . State, interspersed'
here and there with magnificent groves of oak
and other timber. The Road extends from
Chicago, on the- North-East, to Cairo at the
South, and from thence to Galena and Dunleith.
in the North-west extreme of the State, and as
all the lands lie within fifteen' miles on each
side of this Road, ready and cheap ; means are
afforded by it for transporting the products of
the lands to any of these points and from thence
to Eastern and Southern markets. Alofeover,
the - rapid growth of flourishing-towns--and vil
lages along the line, and the great increase in
population by immigration, etc., afford a sub
stantial and growing home-demand for farm
produce,
The soil is a dark, rich mould, from one to
five feet in depth. is gently rol:ing and peculiar
ly fitted for grazing cattle and sheep, or the
cultivation of Wheat, Indian corn, etc.
_Economy in cultivating and great produc
tiveness are the well known characteristics of
Illinois lands. Trees are not required to be
cut down, stumps grubbed, or stone picked off,
as is generally the ease in cultivating new land
in the older States. • The first-crop of Indian
corn, planted on the newly broken sod, usually
repays the cost of , plowing and fencing.
Wheat sown on the newly-turned s od is sure
to yield very LARGE PROFITS. ' A man with a
plow and two yoke of oxen will break one and
a half to two acres per day. Contracts can be
made for breaking, ready for corn or wheat. at
from $2 to 2,50 per acre.. By judicious man
agement, the land may be plowed and fenced
the first, and under a Mgr' STATE OF CULTIVA
TION the second year.
Corn, grain, cattle, etc., will be forwarded
at reasonable rates to Chicago, for the EaStern
market, and to
.Cairo for the Southern. The
larger yield on , the cheap lands of Illinois over
the high-priced lands in the Eastern and Mid
dle States, is known tn--be much mote than
sufficient to pay the difference of transportation
to the Eastern market.
__
Bituminous coal is mined at several points
along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable
fuel.. It can be delivered at several points
along the Road at $1,50 to $4,00 per ton ;
Wood can be had'at the same rates per cord..
These who think of settling, in lowa or Min
nesota, should bear it, mind, that, lands there,
of any rabic., along the wate rceirmes - and for
many miles inland, have been disposed of ;
that for those located in the interior, there are
no conveniences for transporting the produce
to market, Railroads not having been intro
duced there. That to send the produce of these
'lands, one or two hundred miles by wagon to
market, would cost much more than the ex
pense of cultivating them • and hence, Govern
ment lands-thus situated, at $1,25 per acre,
are not so good investments as:the land of this
company at the prices fixed.
__A:hesante_reniarka .hold_goed in relation to
the lands in Kansas and, Nebraska, for although
vacant lands may be found nearer the water
courses, the distance to market is fatr greater,
and every hundred miles the produce'of, those
.:nis are carritir7l -- Win wagons, or in er
rupted water e,oromunications, increaees the•
expenses of transportation, which must be
borne by the settlers, in the reduced price of
their products ;andto that extent precisely
are the incomes from their farms, ando6 course.
on their investments,. annually and every year
reduced.
The great fertility of the lands now offerect
for sale by this company,.and, their consequent
yield. over those of the Eastern and Aliddler
States, is mach. more thansueient to pay the.
difference in the cost of transportation, especial
-1 in view of the facilities furaisheca. by this
Road, anti others with which it, connects, the
operations of which are not interrupted:by the
low water of summer. or the frost of winter.
Price and Terms of Payment.
The price will vary from $5 to $25, accor&-
ing to location, quality, eta. Contracts for
Deeds, may be made during tie year 1856, stip
ulating,the purchase money to be paid in five ,
annual installments. 'She first to beckne due
in two years from. the date. of contract, and-the
others annually thereafter. The last payment.
will become due at the end of the sixth year
from the date of the contract.
Interest will be charged at only THREE.
per cent. per annum. As a security to the
pet formance of the contract, the first two years'
interest must be paid in advance, and it must
be understood that at least one tenth of thee
land purchased shall yearly be brought under
cultivation. Twenty per cent. from the crVit
price will be deducted for cash. The C.
pany's construction bonds will be received
cash.
!Lr READY FRAMED FARM BUILDINGS, Which
can be set up in a few days, can be obtained
from responsible persons. They will be 12
feet by 2Ck feet, divided into one living and
three bed-rooms, and will cost complete set up.
on ground chosen anywhere along the' Road,
$l5O in cash, exclusive of transportation.—
Larger buildings may be contracted for at pro
portionate rates.
Special arrangements with dealers can be
made to supply those purchasing the ComPany's
lands with fencing materials, agricultural tools,
and an outfit of provisions in any quantity, at
the LOWEST WROLESALE PRICES.
'' - 'lt is believed that the price, long credit,
and low rate of interest, charged for these
lands, will enable - a man - witha few hundred
dollars in cash and ordinary industry, to make
himself independent before 01 the purchase
money becomes due. In the mean time. the
rapid settlement of the country will probably
hare increased their value four or five fold.—
When required an experienced person will ac

aid in selecting lands.
Circulars, containing numerous instances o
successful farming, signed by respectable and
- wet Arrown - fmn - erg - lis in,,n-in - the - neighborhood
