A VALUABLE
LUMBER PROPERTY
The subscriber will offer his property at
public sale, on
Friday, the 19th day of October
next. The favorable location of this proper
ty and the great facilities it possesses, both
as a retail and shipping lumber establishment,
is known to most persons in this neighbor
hood. It is situated on Mud Run, in Carbon
county, seven miles Irom the JLehigh -Navi
gation, and nine miles Irom the VVillces-lsar
re Pike, on the road leading from Merwins
burcr to White Haven. It consists of about
1500 Acres of TIbhSjcf 1a2u
containing Pine, Spruce, Hemlock and
Hard Wood, and one of the best single
SAW ITIIff-f-LS
in the Pine Swamp, entirely new, and capa
ble of manufacturing one million feet, or
more, of lumber per annum. Also, -.
Four aood Dwelling Douses,
C ?ii ill
Girls 00. Boys 50. Total 116. Girls average attendance 15.7 days. Boys
do. do. 10.0. Averago number of Girls present each day 52. Average number
of Boys do. 42. Girls time lost by absenoe, 278 days. Boys time lost by do.,
100 days. Girls time lost by tardiness, 922 minutes. Boys time lost by do., 1447
minutes. Total time lost 450 days.
During the month we had but thirteen visits, but as fall work and election will
soon be over, we hope that parents then will be able to find time.
TIia irreornlaritv of attendance is a vorv great obstacle in tho way of tho chil
dren's improvement. But few parents have ever carefully thought of it. "A day
nhw and then" they say ''is surely of but little importance." And yet these same
persons will discard any apprentice who is absent one half, one third, or one fourth
of his time, because as they say (and truly too) " ho can nevor make a good works
mm. But as my snaco is now limited I shall in the course of a few weeks expres-
myself more fully, and will now conclude with sayiDg that, if you wish your chil
dren to improve as they should, you must send them regularly every day, and take
Store IloHsc and Seisiih Shop,
with stabling sufficient for 40 horses. There
arc also about 20 acres cleared land, in a
good state of cultivation. The water pow
er is never failing, and there is on the prop
ncrty a very favorable location for an exten
sive tanning establishment, with an immense
bark region surrounding it.
To any person desiring to enter into the
umbering business, this property affords a
rare opportunity.
Persons wishing to view the property can
have an opportunity of doing so in company
with the subscriber, or with Yvm. K. bnyuer,
who is on tho properly, any day before the
sale, at which time the terms will be made
known.
