Th, soit is a rich limestotie loam, and es pecially adapted to cultivation, as it is mi/hei. 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 pri,th«:ed. Upon this subject it is easy to _be fully satisfied. There is a ready ca h. 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 especially such as contains coal. The Cloak—This in particular is the Coal District, several veins underlaying the whole property, and the attention of miners, and those acquainted with coal lands, - is specially called to. it. It has the advantage of being the neared to the great lake market, with which it will he connected by the Sunbury and Erie Railroad now under contract and in course of completion from Erie to Ridgeway, with de scending grade the whole way. The soil Over 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 immense , coal trade will soon open.

On account of the excellence of streams there are tine opportuni ties for mills. Jro IleaWl, the location is much recommend ed by Physicians. The chills and fevers are unknown, also indmonary complaints, being ppiercted from the north dust winds by the Al leghenies. The water is pure and amongst the best, the land abounding in fine springs. lintr Railroads will shortly be completed. connecting it by a direr , communication with New York.

Energetic exertions are a lso being made for the building of the Tyrone and Ulearfield, .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 rentre 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 half acre 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 tuxupike, and other roads. This is a rare opportunity offered to those who wish to farm or have a good investment for the future. By making proper inquiries, and considering the advantages of good soil, an abundance o coal, healthfulness of climate, Railroad' facilities, and its location, a 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, wheelwrights, axe handle makers, shoemakers, carpenters- and others. - Farms can be bought by enclosing the first histalinent. Ladies can hold shares in their own' right. Title unquestionably good, and warrantee deeds fziven.

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 pointstind from th - emar to Eastern and Southern markets. blorcovc the rapid growth of flourishing, towns and vih lager along the line, and the gent increase' ". population by, immigration, ea., 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 rolling 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 case 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 sod 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 noeinent, the land may be plowed and fenced die first, and under a MGT( 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 land', of Illinois over the high-priced lands in theflastern and .31hk die States, is known to be much mote than sufficient to pay the difference of transportation to the Eastern market, , Bituminous coalois - mined at several points along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable fuel. It can beidelivered at several points along the Road at $1,50 to $4,00 - per ton ; Word can be 1 , Ad at the same rates p7i: cord. Those who Oink of settling in low or Alin nesota, shoukd bear is mind, that lids there, of any val.,e, along the watercou es and for many rni)l • inland, .have been dis used of : that for .ewse located in the interi there are no conveniocrA for transportfrig the produce to market, Rall‘rbwiit-Nol - liaving 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 laud of this conipany at the prices fixed. \ The same remarks hold: good 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 far greater and every hundred miles the produce of those lands are carried either in wagons, or inter rupted -water communications., increases tho expenses of transportation, which must be borne-by the settlers, in the reduced price of their products ; and to that extent precisely are the incomes from their farms. and of course on their investments, annually and every year reduced. - The-great-fertility -of the _lands. now offered for sale by this company, and their consequent yield over those of the Eastern and Middle' ;States, is much more than sufficient to pay the difference in the cost of transportation, especial ly in view of the facilities furnished by this Road, and others with which it connects, the operations of which are not interrupted by this low water of summer. or the frost of winter. Price and Terms of Payment. The price will vary from .1.-:5 to $25; accord ing to location, quality, etc. Contracts for Deeds may be made during the year -1858, stip ulating the pnrchase money to be paid in five annual installments. The first to become due in two years from the date of contract, and the others'imthally thereafter. The last payment will beeonie due at the end of the sixth 'year from the tite.of the contract. ' • alilutvrest will be charged at only 133RE2T per ct•nt. per annum. As a security to the performance of thw contract. the first two years' interest must be paid in advance, and it - must be understood that at ]cast One tenth of tho land purchased shall yearly be brought under cultivation. Twenty per cent. frets; the credit price will be deducted for cash:' The Com pany's construction bonds will be received as cash. rZTE.EADY FRAM'S]) FARM BLTILDISGF , , which? can be set up in a few days, can be obtained from responsible persons.

In the mean time, the rapid settlement of the country will probably have increased their value four or five fold.— When required an experienced person will ac company applicants, to give information and aid in selecting, lands.
