in a rapidly Improving place, into which an
tilrnM<e emigration is noar pouring. The
properly is Incited HI £H Connty, Pennsyl
vania, in tb* roidil of *.thriving population
of some 10,000- The clftnste is perfeoUjr
health*, and the terrible plague of the meet
fetor is unknown. It alsohsa an abundance
of the best qusllty of Co*t and iron. The
pfiee to boy It oat is from p to S2O per acre,
payable by installments, to ba locaie.l it the

payable f 6 per month or ltj acroa payable $1
per month. Diacount for every sum o * SIOO
and under, paid in adtance, and for oveu SIOO
a die ount of 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating
lo this locality the following are presented :
FIUST—The noil is a rich limeetone,capable
of raising the heaviest crops, owing lo whi.b
this seillement baa obtained its present great
prosperity.
Kacouu—Tt la the centre of ,he great North
Went Coal Ilnsin, and is destined noon lo be
come one of the greatest liuainere | laces in
the State. It will supply the great l,ak* mar
ket, (according lo the population and trivef
Iho great oat in the Union.) It haafive work
able veins of the best Bituminouscbal, amount
rng in the aggregate 10 over 22 feet, which
makes 28,000 tons of coat under each sera.
This will make the lard of inesti tn aide value.
The eminent geologist Dr. Chaa. T. Jackson
of Boaton.has made a geoiagleal eurvey of the
land, ond anatyaed the coal, the iron ore and 1
limestone. Thie report together with mat*
will be furnished to inquirers.
FOUHTH— I Three Railroads are laid out thro'
ibis property. Theunbu>* and Erie Railroad
gives os a market for our coal lo the lakes—it
runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part
of the Road has been finished, and ia now in
tunning order. "Aheavy force ignow working
from Erie towards our land in the western di
rection, the means for the completion of which
haa been rat-ed, it will soon be finished. The
Allegheny Valley 'Railroad connects os with
New York, Boston and Pittsburg. The Ve
nango Road connects us with the West.
There are already good Turnpiko Roads
running through Ibis property, various other
roada have been opened to accommodate the
emigration and aeltlement which has already
taken place.
There ia no opportunity equal to it now of
fered to the man who wants to provide himself
a home in an easy way, and make a settlement
where he can live in prosperity and iudepend |
ence in a climate Perfectly Healthy.
No case of fevet ever having been known to
occur in this settlement. It ia not tike going
to the backwoods of lire Waal, among perhaps
intolerant people, where there is no society,
churches, or schools, where the pricowf litnd is
high, and where the emigrant, after being used
lo the healthlost climate in the world, haa to
endure sickness and pain, and perhaps ruins
his health and that of his family. But here is
a thriving settlement haying Ihtee towns, con
taining churches, anhoola, hotels, stores saw
mills, grist mills, and everything desired. There
ia a cash matkcl at hand. The lumber trade
last year atucunted to ovor two hundred million
feet of lumber. In a short time, owing to the
coal.it will become still more valuable as a
I number of ironworks and manufactories will
soon he started; Ihey are at present starting
them extensively at VVaireu. Even for those
who do not wish to go there, the payments
are such that they can easily buy a farm to
save their rising families from want in the
future, or to gain a competence by the rise
which will take place In the value or lands.
By an outlay scarcely missed, ■ substantial
provision can be made.

mperiiUend the burning of the Iron
Safe* at Reading, Feb. 27th, 1897.
READING, March 4ih.
The undersigned, member* of'the Commit
tee, do respectfully report, that we saw the
-two Safes originally agreed cpon by Farraie
& Herring and Evans & Walton, placed tide
by side in a lornaee, viz: The Sale io use by
the Paymaster of the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railroad Company, in hie office at Read
ing, manufactured by Farrels k Herring, and
the Safe in nte by H. A. Lanta, in bia store,
manufactured by Evans k Watson, and put
in books and precisely alike.
The fire was started l 8J o'clock, A. M.,
and kept on until four cords of green hickory,
two cords dry oak and half chestnut top wood
were entirely consumed, the whole under
the superintendence of the subscribers, mem
bers ol the Committee. The Safes were then
cooled off with water, after whioh they were
opened, agd the books and papers taken out
by the Committee and sent to H. A. Lanitc'e
store for public examination, after they were
first examined and marked by the Commit
tee. The book* and paper* taken from the
Safe manufactured by Evan* & Watson ware
but slightly affected by the intense heat,
while those taken from the Safe manufac
tured bv Farrels & Herring were, in our judg
ment, damaged fully fifteen per cent, motet
