The Illinois Central Railroad Company IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL Over Two jillilions of Acres OF FARMING LANDS, IN TRACTS OP 40 ACRES AND UPWARDS, ON LONG CIRDITS AND AT LOW DATES OF INTEREST. THESE lands were granted by the Govern 1. went, 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 j Chicago, on the North• East. to Cairo at the South, and from thence to Galena and Dunleith, 1 • , v* tbeiT. - - S in .Th".i - Z -- irtb-west extreme of the State, and as all the lands lie within fifteen miles an each side of this goad, ready and cheap means are afforded by it for transporting the products of the lands to any of these points andfrout thence to Eastern and Southern markets. Moreover, 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 seiris a dark, rich inottlilT nd em - to fivefeet in depth, is gently rolling peculiar ly fitted for grazing cattle and sheep, or the ,cultivation of Wheat, Indian corn, etc. Economy in cultivating and great proditc tiVeness are the well known characteristics of ' Illinois lands. Trees are not required to he cut down, stumps grubbed, or stone picked off,- • as is generally the case in cultivating new in the older States. The first crop of I n d ian corn, planted on thelewly broken sod, usually repays the cost of plowing and fencing. Wheat sown on the newly turned sod is sure A to yield very LAZA& PIIAMTS. man with plow and two yoke of oxen will break one and a half to two acres per day. Contracts can he made for breaking, ready for corn or wheat, at from $2 to . ,sOper acre. By judicious man agement,- the land may be plowed and `fenced the first, and under a niGH STATE OF CULTIVA- TioN-the.tiecond year. Corn, grain, cietale, etc., will be forwarded at reasonable rates to Chica , r , o, for the Eastern market, and to Cairo for the Southern. The larger yield on the cheat,, land of Illinois Over the high-priced lands in, the Fasters a.nd Nitch die States, is known to be much mute than sufficient to pay the difference of transportation te'lhe Eastern market. Bituminous coal is mined at several points along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable • fad. It can he delivered at several points along the Road at $1,50 .to - $4,00 per ton; Wood can be lead at the same rates per cord: • Those who think of settling in lowa or Min nesota, should hear in wind, that lands there, of any .value, along the water courses and for twiny miles inland, have been disposed id : that far those located in the interior, there are no conveniences for transporting the produce to market, Rai!roads _not having been intro duced there. That to send the pinduce of these lands, one or two hundred miles by wagon to market, would cost much uwre than the ex pense of cultivating ihrtu ; and hence, Govern ment lawls thus' situated, at z:,•1.25 per acre, are not so good investments as the laud et this company at the prices timid. The genie remarks bold good in relation to the laridg+in Kansas and Nebraska, for zittlonlgh vacant lands may tie found nearer the water courses, the distance to ma,rket is far greater and ever • hundred miles tire )roiruce of those lands. are carried either in Wagons, or inter rupted water: communication., increases the expenses 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 farmss 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 11liddle 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 the low water of summer, or the frost of winter. Price am? Terms ofi - Payment. The price will vary from v 5 to .25. accord ing to location. quality, etc. Contracts for Deeds may be made during the year . lz-zSG, stip ulating the purchase money to he paid in five annual instalhuents. The - first to-become due in two years from the d:ate of contract, and the others annually thereafter. The last payment will he' ome due_ at the end of the sixth year from the date of the contract. Er — lnterest will be charged at only 71111574 pei. cent. per annum. _Asa security to the performance of-the contract, the tint two yearei' intereA muse be paid in advance", and it must be understood that at least one tenth of the land purchased shall yearly he brought under cultivation._ Twenty per cent: from the credit price will he ,deducted for cash.

Special arrangements with dealers can be made to siipply those purchasing the Company's lands with fencing materials, agricultural tools, and an outfit of provisions in any quantity, at the Lowest wnot.ksAu: PRICES. 1:71t is believed that the price, long; credit and low rate of interest, charged for these lands, will enable a man with a few hundred dollars in cash and ordinary industry, to ma!ie himself independent before all the purchase money becomes due.
