TO THOSE WHO WANT FARMS.
A Farm within the reach of every Man.
RJ*HE RIDGWAY FARM COMPANY has
A ha, m ade arrangement by which all
who deeira le settle or purchase a hom* can
dooft.
The Yarme consist of the best limestone
roil of the mort eopennr quality for Arming,
in t rapidly improving place, Into which an
extensive emigration is now pduring. The
property is located to Elk Connly, Pennsyl
vania. in (heflnldst of a thriving, population
of some 10,000. The climate fs perfectly
health v, and the terrible plague of the west
fever la unknown. It also has an abundance
of the best quality Of Coal and Iron. Tho
price to laiy it out is from >3 to 830 per acre,
payable by installments, to be IncsteJ si the
time of purchasing, or t share of twen ty-flc
acres entitling lb totals the same for £3OO,
payable |6 per month or 12J acres payable £1
' per month. Discount for every sum o<" 8100
end under, psid in advance, and for over SIOO
a die -ount of 10 per cent.
• In considering the advantages of emigrating
to this locality tho following are presented :
Finwr—The soil is a rich limestone, capanle
of raising the heovjest crops, owing to wbi.h
this settlement has obtained its present great
proqhrity.
Svcomi—lt is the centre of ,hs great North
West Coal Bain, and Is destined soon to be
come one of tho greatest limine* | kccs in
the State. It will supply the great Lake mar
ket, (according to (he population and travel
the greatest in the Union.) It has five work
able veins of the best Bituminous coal, amount
ing in the aggregate to over 23 feel, which
flashes M.Qlrt) tons of coal trader each acre.
This will make the lord of inestimable value.
The eminent geologist Dr. Chas. T. Jackson
of Doston.bas made a geological survey of the
kind, and analysed the coal, tho iron oro and
limestone. This report togslbcr with maps
wilt be furnished to inquirers.
POCHTB— Three Railpwds are laid out thro'
this properly, TheSunburv and Ens Railroad
give, us a maiket for our coal to- tho lakes—it
runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part
of tho Road has bean finished, and is now in
running order. A heavy forco is now working
from Erie towards our laud in tho western di
rectum, the means for the completion of which
has been rat-oil, It will soon be finished. Tho
Allegheny Valley connects us with
Now York, Boston and PiPsburg. The Ve
nango Read connects us with tho West.
Theis are already good Turnpiko Roads
running through tins property,' various other
roads have been opened to accommodate the
cmrgrstion and settlement which has already
taken place.
There is no opportunity equol to it now of
fered |0 the man who wanta to provide himself
■a (kits m mi easy way, and makes settlement
fran live in prosperity and indepcud
limate Perfec'ly Healthy,
I of fever ever having bcon known to
bis settlement. It is not like going
kwoods of the West, among perhaps
people, where there is no society,
or schools, where the prico of laud is
it> . where the emigrant, after tieing used
"''"/gjiealthlesl climate in tho world, has to

The Exciting Cause of Sickness*
The blood it ibe life sustaining agent. f(
ftirnUhoa (be components ot doth, tono,
muscle, nerve end integument. The etomech
us fc* manufactory, the mine in diatribe tore,
and Ihe intestines the channel through which
die waste' matter ifjcied in its production*
is expelled. Upon tbe slorrtach, the circula
tion and llie bowels, llieso Pills act siraulta
neously, relieving indigestion, purifying me
fluid*, and regulaittg the excretion*.
THE NATIONAL COMPLAINT.
Dyspepsia is the most common diseaso
among ail classes in this country. It assumes
a thousand shapes, and is the primary sortrco
of innumerable dungorous maladies; bin
whatever Us typo or symptoms, however ob
ftitiate its resistance to ordinary preparations
tt yield* readily and rapidly to this searching
and unerring remedy.
BILIOUS AFFECTIONS.
Tho quantity and quality of (lie bile are of
vital importance to health. Upon the liver
lite gland which secretes this fluid, ifieee
f ills operate specifically, infallibly rectifying
its irregularities, and ollaclually coring Juun
diee, Bilious Remiltants, and all the varieties
of disease genorated by an unnatural condi
tion ol the organ.
BOWEL COMPLAINT?.
Unless tho bowels perform their functions
properly, tho whole body suffers. Tens of
thousands die annually of Dysentery, Diar
rhoea, Chronic consumption, and other dis
eases of these wasto pipes of tho system.
The effect of the Pills upon all intestinal dis
orders, whether casual or epidemic, is a
phenomenon in medicine. .By following the
printed directions, tho most alarming caoa
of bowel complaint aro promptly controlled.
A Word (o females.
The local J*bfity a'nd irregularities which
are tho especial annoyances of the weaker
sex, and which, when neglected, always
shorten lifo, ore relieved for the time being,
and prevented for tho lime to come, by a
courso of this mild but thorough alterative.
