Farm Lands for Sale. , . 'The 1111hols COntral Railroad Company IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL OVER- • TWO MILLION OF ACRES FARMINC LANDS, In Tracts of 40 fierce awl npirariot, on long and at lain rates if Interest. THESE lands. wore granted by the Government, to aid in the construction of this Railroad, and In- elude some of the richest and most fertile Prairies in the State, interspersed hero and there with magniti cent groves of oak and other timber. Thu Road ex tends Frew Chicago, on the North-East, to Cairo at I the South, and front thence to Galena a n d Dtmleith, In the North-west extreme of t h e State, and as nil the lands Ito within fifteen miles on each side of this Road, reedy and cheap means arc afforded by it for trans porting the uroducts of the lands to any of those pointa,.and,frent thence to Eastern and Southern markets. Moreover, the rapid growth of flourishing towns end villages along the' line, end the great in crease in population by ithmigration, etc., olford substantial and growing home- d emand for farm pro duce. The soil is a dark, rich mould, from merle five feet in depth, is gently rolling and peenliarly fitted Sro grazing cattle and sheep, or the cultivation of wheat, Indian corn, etc. Economy in cultivating and great productivene7s tiro the well known eharacteristics of Illinois lands. Trees are not required to he cult down, stumps grub bed, or stone picked off, as is generally the case in cultivating now land in the older Slates. The firs crop of Indian corn, planted on the newly 'woken sod, usually repays the cost of plowing and fencing. Wheat sown on the newly-turned soil is sure to yield very large pertain. A man with a Idow :not Iwo yoke of oxen will tweak one :not a halt' to two :oil., per day. Contracts can be node for breaking. ready for corn Or wheat, at from $2 to 2,31) per acre. By judicious managenww, the land may plowed awl fenced the first, and Ittokr a h;gh .tot, crdiiiwtilPir the second year. Corn, grain, cattle. etc., will be fora:n..l,l at Eel tonal& rates t i , w tie tins.-tern marl et. and to Cairo for the Southern. The larger yield on the ,heap lands of Illinois over the bigh-priced lands in the Eastern and Middle States, is known to he merit more Ginn sufficient to pay the difference of transpor tation to the Eastern mnrket. Bituminous coal is mined at several points aloe; the Road, and is a cheap and desirable fuel. It can be delivered at several pOints along the Road at $1.50 to $4,00 per ton Wood can be had at the same rates . per cord. Those who think of settling in lowa or Illionesolo, should boar in mind that lands there of any value, along the water courses and for many miles inland, have been disposed of,—that for those leveled in the interior, there nro no conveniences for transporting to .market the produce, Railroads not having been intro ducethhere. That to send the produce or these lands one or two hundred miles by wogon to market, would cost much more than the expense of cultivating them, and hence, Government lands thus sitanted, nt 11,25 per nerd, are no: so good investments as the nod of this company at the prices fixed. The same remarks hold good in relation to the lands in Kansas and Nebraska, for although vacant lands may ho found nearer the water Natl.:we, the distance to market is far greater, and every hundred miles the produce of those lands are carried either in wagons, or interrupted water communteations, increases the expenses of transportation, which must be borne by the settlers, in the reduced price of their produets, and to that extent precisely cute the incomes from their limns, and of course on their investments, annu ally and every year redtwed. The great fertility of the lands .now offered for sale by this company, and their consequent yield over those of the Eastern and :%liddle States, is much more . than sufficient to pay the difference in the cost of transportation, especially in view of the facilities furnished by this Road, tool 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 PAYMENT. . The price will vary from $3 to $23, according to location, quality, etc. Contracts lbr Deeds may be made during the year 1830, stipuhtliw , the pure!!Bse money to be paid in live annual inen7liments. The first to become due in two years from the date of con tract, and the others annually thereafter. The last payment will become due at the end of the sixth year from the date of the contract. /Merest will he charged at mail three per rent. per As a security to the performance of the contract, the first two years' interest must be paid in advance and it must ho understood that at least one tenth ~r the. bind purchased shall yearly be brought under cultivation.

In the mean time, the rapid settlement of the country will probably have increased their value four or live rod.

THERE has long existed a public demand for an effective. purgative pill which could be relied en its sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has been prepared to meet that demnnd, mod an exten sive trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with what sqccess it accomplishes the purpose designed. It is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy to make the best of allpills-one which should have nano of tho objections, but all the advantages, of everrifflir. This has been attempted here, and with whn success we would respectfully submit to the ;midi decision. It has been unfortunate for the patient hitherto that almost every purgative medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow els. This is not. Many of them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in the system ns to more than counterbalance the good to be derived from them. These grills produce no irritation or pain, unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc tion or derangement in the bowels. Being purely vegetable, no harm can arise (rein their use in any quantity ; but it is better that any medicine should be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their use in the several diseases to which they are ap plicable 'are given on the box. Apong the cone plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we rosy mention Liver Complaint, in its ValielllA forma of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap petite, Listlessness, Irritability, Bilious II eadnehe, Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side and Loins ; for, in truth, all these are but the con sequence of diseased action in the liver. As air aperient they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos tiveness, Piles, Colic, , Dysentery, Humors, Serer. ;Oa and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body, Ulcers and impurity of the blood ; in short, any and every case where npurgative is required. They have also produced sonic singularly suc cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, (have], Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Ileart, Pains in the Bork, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood and prepare the system for the change of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno vate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism. Bence 'an occasional dose is advantageous, even though no serious derangement mists; but nit necessary dosing should never be carried too far, as every purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body ; and it is confidently believed this pill will answer a better purpose than any thing which has hitherto been available to mankind. When their virtues are once known, the public will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped they are pleasant -to take, and being purely vegetable, no harm can arise front their use in any quantity. -For minute directions see wrapper on the Box. PREPARED .111, JAMES C.
