tcauttHg Farm in a healthy place, limuif-fict
nilt froiu Philadelphia, ou the Camden and At
lantic Railroad, New Jersey. An obi estate has
recently been opened for sale, and the first divi
sion of 10.01'it acres divided up into firms of 20 a
cres and upward 1 he soil is of tUt brut quality
for the production of fruits, grains. Ac. The price
is 515 to 520 per acre, payable in ca?y quarter
yearly instalments, within a term of four years,
ith interest. The terms are made easy, in'ordcr
to insure the rapid improvement of the land, bv
enabling tivrj nolustriunt uitm to buy a farm. It
is now bcin extensively improve! by good roads,
and some '" the bt citizens from New England
and the Middle States are erecting large improve
ments. It is a scene of the greatest improvement
Ut of Philadelphia Seventy-five houses have
been built in 4 months. Practical farmers and bu
siness men from the length and breadth of the U
nicii are settling there. It is an important busi
ness place, on account of its being iu the midst of
a great market. Every article raised on this land
finds an immediate sale. The water is excellent,
and no such thing as fever is known. The soil is
a, sandy or clay luam. with a city bottom and rr
sentirr of manures. It is free of stones and easily
worked. It abounds largely in the phosphates,
and such is its fertility that from the crops pro
duced both upon this "land and the area adjoin
ing under culiiratlon. it will be found not Jo be
excelled anwhere in the production of crops most
adapted to its market. The reader may be well
aware that the earliest and the best fruits and veg
etables come from New Jersey, which are annual
ly exported to the amount of millions of dollars.
The land, besides being accessible in every way
for fertilizers, has an abundant supply of the best
quality of muck manure.
Lumber and building materials can be Lad on
the spot at a cheap price, from the mills Other
mills are now beiug opened, and brickyards being
sKarted on the ground. A person can put up a
frame tenement for present convenience for one
hundred dollars. On account of the extensive em
igration, this is the best course to pursue in order
to get a place to live in at first. Carpentersand buil
ders are on hand to put up houses on the best terms.

comfort of civilization is at hand ; he is in a heal
thy place, and is not subject to the certainty of
losing the greater part of his family and his own
health by those malignant fevers which make the
graves of so many millions of the young and har
dy in far off regions away from home and friends.
Besides, he has a mild climate and an opeu winter.
There are three trains daily to Philadelphia
and to all those who improve the railroad compa

The reader will at once be struck with the ad
vantages here prevented, and ask himself why the
property nas not been lateen np bctore. Ibe rea
son is, it was never thrown in the market : and un
less these statements were correct no one would be
invited to examine the land before purchasing.
This all are expected to do. They will see the land
under cultivation ; they will meet persons, no
uuuoi, irom weir own neighborhood ; tney will
witness the improvements, and can judge of the
character of the population. Persons should come
prepared to purchase, as manv are locating, and
locations are tut held on refusal.

CA CARD FROM DR. JAMES M. JAR
KETT, OF THE NEW-YORK" LUXG IN
FIRMARY, My connection for th past eight
years with the above Institution, as Chief Physi
cian, and a twelve years' courseof steady devotion
to the Cure of Pulmonary Consumption and its
kindred UUeascs. together with my unrivalled op
portunities and advantage of pathological research
aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical
Inhalation lias enabled me to arrive at a deci
sive, direct, and successful course of treatment for
the positive and radical cure of all diseases of tho
Throat. Lung, andAit-passagtf. By Inhalation,
the vapor and curative properties of medicines are
directly addressed tolhc diseased organsof the in
tegument. I do not advise the use of Medical In
halation of any kind, to the exclusion of general
treatment ; and although I consider it a useful ad
juvant in the proper management of those fearful
and often filial discas;s. yet I deem it very neces
sary that caeh paiient should have the benefit of
both general and local treatment. The success of
my treatment in the above diseases, and the high
character of tho Institution over which I have so
long had tbe honor to preside, are too well known
to need any eulogy or comment from me. At the
solicitation of many private and professional
friends, through whose philanthropic aid the above
charity has been long and liberally supported. and
after due consideration. 1 have concluded to make
such arrangements as will bring the benefits of my
experience and treatment within the reach of all,
and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those on
ly who entered the Infirmary,, or who were able to
visit me at my office. Hoping therefore that the
arrangement .will give entire satisfaction, both to
my professional brethren and the public. T would
respectfully annonncc in conclusion, that 1 can
now be consulted jterxonally or ly letter, on all d:s
cases as above, and that tbe medicines, the same as
used in the Institution, prepared to suit each in
dividual case. Inhaling Vnporx. Hindi eal Inha
ler, ilrc. Ire . will bo forwarded by express to any
part of the United States or the Cnnadas. Tf.isms
My terms of treatment by letter arc ns follows,
viz: 12 per month for each patient, which will
include medicine sufficient for one month's use;
also. Inhaling Vapor, and an Inhaling Apparatus.
Payment as follows : $:? to be paid to Express A
gent on receipt of the box of Medicine, and the
balanco S(i at the expiration of the month, if the
patient be cured or is entirely satisfied with the
treatment. Patients, by giving a full history of
theircase, and thcirsymptoicsin full, can be treat
ed as well by letter as by personal examination.
Patients availing themselves cf Dr. Jarrett's treat
ment may rely upon immediate nr.d permanent
relief, as he seldom has to treat a case over thirty
days. Letters for advice promptly aLSwcrcd. For
further particulars address

BIOGRAPHY OF
NOW READY: THR
1,11' Ii yr 11UIMAS JKhtERSUX, ha Hen
ry S. RnndaJl. LL. 1). In 3 volumes, oeiaca.
This work contains upwards of 2.000 pages, is prin
ted ou fiue paper, and handsomely bound in va
rious styles. It is illustrated by several engrav
ings on steel, and numerous far similes ; among
the former are two fine portraits of Jefferson. The
fuc similes embrace, among others, the original
draft of the Declaration of independence, in Jcf
fcrson jown hand-writing.
This is, in every sense, an authorized irorl-: it
was undertaken under the approbation of his fam
ily, and with an unreserved access to all the pri
vate papers of Jefferson in their possession ; and
has received the benefit of their recollections and
opinions at every step.
The work contains the expressions of Jefferson
on every great public question which arose, from
his advent to public life to bis death a period of
about sixty years, and embracing tbe whole form
ing period of the Republic. It contains Jeffer
son 9 heretofore unpublished family correspon
dence; selections fioni his finest published letters,
state papers, etc., etc , etc.
t)PIXIOXS OF THE rilESS.
"No other Lifo of Jefferson ever published
probably none that ever will be published can
bear any comparison to this in thorougncss. full
ness of incidcat and conscientious fidelity. ....
This biography has evidently been a labor of love
Snd tho years of patient, assiduous toil it has cost
have been given with ungrudging, untiring enthu
siasm." S'rir. York Tribune.
"At length the public have a Life of Thomas Jef
ferson that is not only fascinating, and thercforo
sure to be popular, bu" one that will stand the es
sentia! historic test that of accuracy and truth
fnlness. It is seen that the ground-work of the
whole is authentic cotemporary material, a ad of
tbe highest order. To gather it has been the work
of years. We would not compare this volume with
that inimitable and incomparable biography of
Boswell. and yet so faithful is the portraiture that
Jefferson is made to draw of himself, that his na
ture, his very soul, is deliniated with a distinct
ness not unlike that in which Johnson stands out
iu the pages of Boswell.' Boston J?ot.
"Imbued with that enthusiastic admiration of
his subject, without which a biographer is rarely
successful, Mr. Randall nevertheless docs not seek
to hide whatever faults ho may find, either from
himself or from the reader. He prints the picture
as Cromwell insisted his should be painted, "warts
and all." The picture gains by this in life-like
coloring, without losing any of its majestic propor
tions." Albany Eremng Journal.
"Xo one who runs his eye, however casually, o
vcr this work, will fail to be satisfied that Mr.Ran
da.Il has added very largely to the stock of the
world's information about Jefferson, that he has
had access to sources hitherto unexplored, and that
he has done more than was ever done by any one
before him to illustrate the personality of that
great statesman." X. Y. Evening Post.
"We have read with delight Mr. Randall's cap
tivating details of Mr. Jefferson's personal history,
which he has seduously gathered, and admirably
grouped together, from a great variety of authen
tic sources, hitherto unexplored. Out of the tempt
ing richness of his materials, the able and clear
sighted author has constructed a book, at once most
entertaining and instructive one that should be
studied by every patriot of the land." Rich
mond, Va., Eii'fitirer.
"There can be only one opinion as to the abili
ty, general impartiality and industry which Mr.
Randall has brought into combination in the com
position of this biography He has
worthily executed a much wanted book." Fhil
tuleJphia Press. .
"It will take place among the choicest classics
of American literature, and be consulted by eve
ry future historian of this country." Philadel
phia Ereuing- Bulletin.
"We like it because it neither conceals, palliates,
exaggerates, nor distorts, but approaches, in everv
instance, ar.d in every particular, tbe career of
tbe noble character whoso opinions have done so
much to shape the domestic and foreign policy of
the notion he contributed so greatly to call "into
existence." .V. O. True. Djta.
