Farm Lands for Sale. The Illinois Central Railroad Company IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL OVER TWO .MILLION OF ACRES OF FARMING LANDS, laTracta qf 40 acres mut upwards, oft lway tircdit B l and at low rates of loterest. THESE lands were granted by the Government, to!, aid in the construction of this Railroad, and in- I elude some of the richest and most fertile Prairies in the State, interspersed here and there with mai : pain-I cent groves of oak and other timber. The Road ex tends from Chicago,, on the North-East, to Cairo at , the South, and from thence to Catena and Dunleith, in the North-west extreme of the State, and as ell the lands lie within fifteen miles on each side of this Road, i ready and cheap means mu afforded by it for trans porting the products of the lands to any of those; points and from thence to Eastern and Southern markets. Moreover, the rapid growth of flourishing towns and villages along the line, and the great in crease in population by immigration, etc., affitrd as substantial and growing home-demand fur farm pro duce. The soil is a dark., rich mould, front one to five feet in depth, is gently rolling and peculiarly fitted fur gracing cattle and sheep, or the cultivation of wheat, Indian corn, etc. Economy in cultivating and great productiveness are the well known characteristics of Illinois lands. Trees are not required to be cut down, stumps grub bed, or stone picked off, as is generally the case in cultivating new land in the older States. The tire crop of Indian corn, planted on the newly broken sod, usually repays the coot of plowing and fencing. Wheat sown on the newly-turned sod is sure to yield very large profits. A man with it plow and two yoke Of oxen will break one and a half to two acres per day. Contracts can he made fur breaking, ready for corn or wheat, nt from $2 to 2,10 per sere. By' judicious management, the land may be plowed and' fenced the first, and under a high state of cultivation the second year. Corn, grain, cattle, etc., will be forwarded at rea sonable rates to Chicago. for the Eastern market, and to Cairo fur the Southern. The larger yield on the cheap lands of Illinois over the high-priced lands in the Eastern and Middle-States ' is known to be much more than sufficient to pay the difference of transpor tation to the Eastern market. Bituminous coal is mined nt several points along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable fuel. It can S be delivered at several points along the Rood at $1,50 to St,oo per ton; Wood can be had at the same rates per cord. Those who think of settling in lowa or Minnesota, should bear in mind that lauds there of any value, along the water courses and for many miles inland, have been disposed of,—that for those located in the interior, there are no conveniences for transporting to market the produce. 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 lunch more than the expense of cultivating I them, and hence, Government lands thus situated, at $1,21 per acre, arc not so good investments us the wind of this company at the prices fixed. The same remarks hold good ihn relation to the lands in Kansas and Nebraska, fur although vacant lands May be found mares the water courses, the distanee to market is far greater, and every hundred miles the produce of those lands aro carried either in wagons, or interrupted water communications, increases the expenses of transportation, which must he borne by the settlers, in the reduced price of their products, and to that extent precisely are the incomes front their farms, and of course on their investments, annu ally 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, espeeiully in view of the facilities foraished by this Road, and others with which it con nects, the, operations of which are not interrupted by the low water of summer, or the frost of winter. PRICE AND TERMS OF PAY3IENT. The price will vary front $5 to $25. recording to location, quality, etc. Contracts for Deeds may be made during the year 1850, stipulating the purchase money to be paid in lire mutual installments. The first to become due in two years front the date of con tract, and the others limitedly thereafter. 1 his last payment will become due at the mid of the, sixth year from the .late of the eontreet. Interest teal be charged at o n ly three per cent. put As a security to the performance of the contract, the first two veers inl •r~: I rust be paid in nOvarn, and it must be underAued that at least one tenth o the laud purehtued than yearly be brought under cultivation. Tiventy per cont. from the credit price - willbe de• ducted for cash. The Company's construction bonds will be received no cash. Raul!, framed farm buildings, which ran he set up in of eta days, can be obtained per suns. They will be 12 feet by 20 f ee t, di v id e d i nto ono living and three lied-rooms. and trill cut complete set up on ground chosen anywhere along the lload, $l5O in cash, exclusive of transportation. Larger buildings may be contracted for at proportionate rates. The Compaay will forward all the materials over their read promptly. Speeinl arrangements with dealers can he made to suNtly those purchasing the Company's lands with fe acing materials, agricultural tools, and an outfit of pitvinions iu any quantity, at. the lowest wholesale prrees. Itis believed that the price, long credit, and low rate of interest, charged for these lands, will enable a man vrith a few hundred dollars in cash and ordinary in dustry, to mako 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. - When requir ed, an experienced person will accompany applicants, to give information and aid in selecting lands.

THE LEHIGH REGISTER, SEPTEMBER 24, 1856. . AYER'S PILLS,. A tsm.and singularly successful remedy for the A cure of all Bilious diseases—r Costiveness, Ltdi gestion; Jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers, Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Inflamina tions, Headache, Pains in the Breast, Side, Back, anu Limbs, Female Complaints, &c. &c. Indeed, very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medi cine is not more or less required, and much sick ness and suffering might be prevented, if a harm less but effectual Cathartic were snore freely used. No person can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative. This is alike tree of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They all tend to become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses all over the land. Hence a reliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has been perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand. All extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profes sors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing ally thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have beets effected beyond belief, were they not sub stantiated by persons of such exulted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth: Among the many eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention : Dn. A. A. !Inv Es, Analytical Chemist, of Boston, ' and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high professional character is endorsed by the HON. EDWARD EVERETT, Senator of the U. S. 'Romer C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of Repreffentalives. A neorr witExce, 'Minister Ph:n. to England. t Jena B. FITZPATRICK, CAR. Bishop of Boston. Also, Dn. .1. It. Cuss:nix, Practical Chemist, of New York City, endorsed by • Box. W. L. MA swv, Secretary of State. Mm. B. Aston, the richest man in America. S. LELAND it Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred certificates, from all parts where the Pills have been used, but evidence even 'Mire convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found in • their effects upon trial. These Pills, Abe result of long investigation and study, are offered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford. They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of Use medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical process in a state of pithy, and combined together m such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition fur medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob tained by any process. The reason is perfectly oo vious. While by the old mode of composition, every medicine is burdened with more or less of acri monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi vidual virtue only that is desired fur the curative effect is present. All the inert and obitoxious'qual hies of_each substance employed arc left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is self-evident the effects should prove as they have proved more purely remedial, and the Pills a surer, more powerful antidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken tinder the counsel of an attending Physician, and ns he could not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, I have supplied the accurate formula by which both my Pectoral and Pills ate made to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States and British Amer ican Provinces. If, however, there should be any one who has not received them they will be promptly forwarded by mail to his address. • Of all the Patent Medicines that arc offered, how few would be taken if their composition was known ! Their life consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries. The composition of my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was . pronounced by scientific men to be a wonderful medicine before its effects were known. Many em inent Physicians have declared the same thing of my Pills, and even snore confidently, and are to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their effects upon trial. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action—remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange ments as are the first origin of disease. ' Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no barns can arise from their use in any quantity. For minute directions, see wrapper on the Box. JAMES C. AYER, .
