Farm Lands for Sale. The Illinois Central Railroad Company IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL OVER .TWO MILLION OF ACRES OF FARMING LANDS, inTracte of 40 acres and. upwards, on long Credits and at lots rates of Interest. THESE lands were granted by the Government, to -11- aid in the construction of this Railroad, and in clude some of the richest and most fertile Prairies in the State, interspersed here and there with magnifi cent groves of oak and other timber. The Road ex tends from Chicago, on the North-East, go Cairo at the South, and from thence to Galena null Dunleith, in the North-west extreme of the State, anti as all the lands He within fifteen miles on each side of this Road, ready and cheep moans arc afforded by it for trans porting the products of the hinds 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, anti Rho great in crease in population by immigration, etc., afford substantial and growing home-demand for farm pro duce. The soil is a dark, rich mould, from one to five feet in depth, is gently rolling and peculiarly fitted for grazing cattle and sheep, or the cultivation of wheat, Indian corn, etc. Economy in cultivating and great productiveness ere the well known characteristics of Illinois lands. Trees are not required to be cut down, stumps grub bed, or steno picked off, as is generally the ease in cultivating now land in the older States. Tho firs 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 prvits. A man with a plow and two yoke of oxen will break one and a half to two acres por day. Contracts can he outdo for breaking, ready for corn or wheat, at from $2 to 2,50 per acre. 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, ate., will be forwarded at rea sonable rates to Chicago, for the Eastern market, and to Cairo for the Southern. The larger yield on the cheap lands of Illinois over the high-priced lands it, tho Eastern and Middle States, is known to bo much more than sufficient to pay the difference of transpor- 1 Lotion to the Eastern market. Bituminous coal is mined at several points along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable fuel. It eat be delivered at several points clung the Roati at $,l-,51. to $4,00 per ton; Wood can bo had at the same fates per cord. Those who think of !titling in lowa or Minnesota. should bear in mind that hinds there of any value. along the water courses and for ninny miles inland, have been disposed of,—that for those located in the interior, there are no conveniences for transporting t. market the produeo, Railroads not having been intro duced there. That to send the produce of these lamb one or two hundred miles by wagon to market. would cost much more than the expense of cultivating them, and hence, Government lands thus situated, at $1,25 per acre, are not so good investments its the olnd of this company at the prices fixed. The same remarks hold good in relation to the lands in Kansas and Nebraska, for although vacant land, .may bo 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 interrupted water coinintudeations, increases the expenses of transportation. which Must be horns 1,3 the settlers, in Rho reduced price of their products, and to that extent precisely tire the minutes from their farms, and of course on their investments, annu ally and every year redured. Thp great fertility of the lands now offered for sale by this company, and their consequent yield over those of the Eastern and :Riddle States, is intich more than sufficient to pay Rho difference in the cost 01 transportation, especially in view of the facilities furnished 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 TEAMS OF PAYMENT. The price will vary from $5 to $25, according to location, quality, etc. Contracts for - Deeds may be made during the year HA stipulating the purchase money to be paid in five annual installments. The first to become duo in two years from tho date of con tract, and the others annually thereafter. Tho last payment will become duo at the and of the sixth year from the data of the contract. Interest toilt bo charged at only three per cent. per annum. As'a security to' the performance of the contract. the first two years' interest most be paid iu advance and it must be understood that at least ono tenth .01 the land purchased shall yearly be brought nude) cultivation. Twenty per cent. from the credit price will he de• ducted for cash. The Company's construction bond,. will be received as cash. • Ready framed farm buildings, which can be set op in a few days, ens be obtained from responsible per sona. They will be 12 feet by 20 feet, divided into one living and three bed-rooms, and will cost complete set up on ground chosen anywhere along the Road, $l5O in cash, exclusive of transportation. Larger buildings luny be contracted for at proportionate rates. Tho Company will forward all the materials over their road promptly. Special arrangements with dealers can he made to supply those purchasing the Company's lands with fencing materials, agricultural tools, end an outfit of provisions in any quantity, at the /west wholesale prices. Itis 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 mud ordinary in dustry, 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. When requir ed, an experienced person will accompany applicants, to give information and aid in selecting lands. ,Circulars, containing numerous instances of suc cessful farming, signed by respectable and welLknow farmers living in the neighborhood of the:Railroad lands, throughout the State—also the cost of fencing. price of cattle, expense of harvesting, etc., by con- - tract—or any other information—will be cheerfolly given, on application, either personally or by letter, in English, French, or German, addressed to JOHN WILSON, Land Commissioner of the Illinois rentral Rail H.

YOUR attention is respectfully 'solicited to the above method of Rooting, now much used itc Philadelphia and vicinity, and which has been exten sively in use in many of the cities of the West, during more than eleven years past, during which time it has been tested under every variety of circumstances.' and we confidently offer it to the public as a mode of Roofing tumbjectitamble in every important particular. while it combines, in a greater degree than itny other roof in use, the valuable requisites of cheapness, IN rability, and security against both fire and water.— This is rapidly superseding the use of all other hinds of roofs, wherever it hos 'men introduced, giving gen. oral satisfaction, and is highly recommended by all who have tested its utility. These roofs require nti inclination of not more than ono inch to the foot. which is of great advantage in cane of fire, and for drying purposes. They are offered at a price consid erably less then any other roof in use, while the amount of material saved, which would otherwise be used in extending tip the walls and framing for a steep roof, often makes a still further important re duction in the cost of building. (Bitters may Ice formed of the stone material ns the roof, nt much less expense than any other. In case of defect or injury, from any cause, there is no roof so' easily repaired. The materials being mostly non-conductors of hest, no roof is so cool in summer, or so warm in winter. Those wishing to use our roof, should give the rafters apita or about one inch to the foot.

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 more 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 true 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. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profes sors, and Patients, has shwa results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures. have been effected beyond belief; were they not sub stantiated by persons of such exalted position and character ns to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among, the many eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention: Du. A. A. II Ayes, Analytical Chemist, of Boston, and State Assayer of Massachusettsovhose high professional diameter is endorsed by the - Ho s. El MA lin EV Mt rrr, Senator of the U. S. lionmer C. Wismotor, Ex -Speaker of the House of Representatives: A nuorr LAWI:Ir`: ec, Minister Plen. to England. t Joins B. Fir/ exTioca, Cath. Bishop of Boston. Also, Dn. J. It. Clot:Lox, Practical Chemist, of New York City, endorsed by Hoy. W. L. MARIA', Secretary of State. WM. B. AsTon. the richest Man in America. S. Lei.x & Co., Prom's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and others. Did space permit, we could give ninny hundred certificates, from all parts whsre . the Eills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found in their effects upon trial. These l'ills, the result of long investigation and study, are offered to the public its the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford. '[hey are compounded not of the drugs themselves, bait of the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical process in a state of purity, and combined together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition for medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to poultice a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob tained by ally process. '[tie 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 by the curative effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious qual ities of each substance employed are 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 l'ills 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 under the counsel of an it tending Physician, and as he could not properly judge of n remedy without knowing its composition, I have supplied the accurate Formula!' by which both my Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States and British Amer lean Provinces. if, however, there should be any one who has not received them, they will be promptly forwardednmil to his address. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few would be taken if their composition was koown ! Their life consists in their mystery. 1 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 more confidently, and are will ing to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their effects upon trial. They overate 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 harm can arise from their use in any quantity. For minute directions, see wrapper on the Box. JAMES 0.
