By the aid of a microscope, we see mil
lions of little openings op the surface of our
bodies. Through these this Ointment. when
rubbed on the skin, is carried to any own, or
inward
.part. Diseases of the kidneys, disor
ders of the Liver, affections of the heart, Inflam
mation. of tub Lungs; .Astlimas, Coughs and
Colds, are by its means effectually cured.
Every housewife knows that salt passes freely
through bone or meat of any thicl.ness. This
healing Ointment far Wore readily penetrates
through any bone or fleshy part of the living
body, curing the most dangerous inward com
plaints, that cannot be reached by other means.
Erysipelas,Salt Itlictint.S; Scorbutic Humors.
No remedy has ever done so much for the
cure of diseases of the Skin, whatever form they
may assume, as this Ointment. No ease of Salt
Rheum, Scurvy, Sure (leads. Sera►fula, or Ery

inventor has travelled over n►auy parts of the

there are already some 20,000 acres under cul

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

is trifling for the coal alone, as it will certain

time pay largely. This is important as an
immense , coal trade will soon open. Four coal
companies have, already been snarled to work
mines in the vicinity, and there are now fifteen
openings around St. Mary's.

excellence of streams there are tine opportuni

connecting it by a direr , communication with
New York. Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Erie,
Buffalo, and all the cities on the Lakes. They
are the Sunbury and Erie, the Allegheny Val

go.. 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. -

This is to certify . that, having been over the

OF PARIVING LANDS,
IN TRACTS 01 , 40 ACIII:S.AND UPWARDS, ON
LONG CREIGTS AND ,t 7 LOW SATES OF INTEREST.
11 1 11 ESE lands were granted by the Govern
ment, to aid in the construction of this
Railroad. and include some of the- richest and
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 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

is believed that the price, long credit,.
and low rate of interest, charged 'tor these
lands, will enable a man with a few hundrea
dollars in cash and ordinary industry, to make
himself independent before all the purchase
money becomes due. In the mean time, the
rapid settlement of the country will probably
have increased their value four or five fold.—
