C The Man that'Advertised his farm and the Man that did not. 0 . . . Everybody is acquainted with Samuel A. Walker, Esq., the eeltbiatedauctioneer, and almost everybody, when, ho has any thing to. sell by auction, calls on him. A month or two since the auctioneer .was 'sitting in his office reading one of the daily papers, when a well: appearing man entered and enquiredfor Mr. Walker. The auctioneer said in his happiest snaimee, that be was the individual, and at the same time desired his visitor to' be seated.— The . stranger gave his name and ,said ho rest ' dod in Saugus on the border of Malden, and "having bought dry goods and bandanas of the auctioneer when he was in that lino in Kilby street, he had now come to renew his acquain tance and to get him to sell some laud which he owned in Malden. He stated to Mr Wal ker that he only wanted his services as a ealee man—he, the owner would dwell the rest.— He did not intend to.have any advertisements in the newspapers, as ho had given notice in thelast town meeting that ho would sell his land at ahction, and that was notice enough. . The owner desired to secure the services of Mr. Walker for the day, and inquired his price The inviable auctioneer said he would go down end sell for him for $1 This was agreed t 0,,, only it was stipulated that the auctioneer should pay his own faro each way. This Mr. Walker agreed to, and his visitor returned de- 1 ghted : with having Bemired the services of the eutiuent auctioneer at so low a figure.'-After praying the $1 to the auctioneer, who then se cured hie peat customer and the business of the morning went along as usual. When the day appointed for the saleirrived the , auctioneer hastened to the care and was, soon landed at the depot in Saugus, where the owner of the land was anxiously awaiting hie arrival. • Ho was overjoyed.at seeing him, nu& after exchanging the compliments of the morning and taking a glass of cold water, the land owner and auctioneer, the former with a spy glass and the latter with a small rod flag, were seen footing it for the location of the land whioh he was to sell. After a dusty walk of half an hour they arrived at the spot, where they remained for an hour after the time ap pointed for the sale to commence—the owner and the auctioneer being the only persona with in two miles of the place about to biaold by aui lion —t4o owner wondering whythe people did not some, and the auctioneer wondering why they sho'uld come, thus ended the unadver tised land•sale. A few days after the old fogy sold his land at private sale to a well known operator in re al estate, for six thousand dollars, which was the price be paid for it some several years since, wisely coming to the conclusion that be was behind the times, and could not make much by selling land by auction, even if he employed a Boston auctioneer. All the foregoing happened in April of the present year. About the first of May another stranger called upon the same auctioneer, and Bald he had a beautiful place in Malden near Saugus to sell by auction. The auction eer, said'that be had some experience down that Wily and did not care to risk his hard earned reputation and his time by again visi ting Malden professionally.- The stranger was in earnest, he described the place and gave the name of the previous owner, when it came out that the auctioneer was a second time called upon to sell the one dollar farm. The auctioneer declined at first to have anything to do with the matter. The new owner was a man of progress, not an old fogy. Ho is ac quainted with business and up with the times. lie'said to the auctioneer, I want your 8(31,4- cos as auctioneer end I authorise you to spend not exceeding $6OO in procuring plans and in properly placing before the people this voida ble-place of property, for valuable I know it t•+ be. The auctioneer and owner the following day visited the spot, and a few days afterwarda a beautiful lithographic plan of the farm was placed upon our table, and in the commercial papers and nearly all the'other dailies appear ed one of, tbose brilliant and attractive adver. tisements for which Mr Walker is SO celebra ted, setting forth in truthful terms the advert tages of the location about to be sold by him by auction. The day of sale arrived, nearly a thousand persons attended, every lot was sdid,,ihe aggregate amount of which was near twelve thousand dollars, the operation yielding to the owner a neat profit of something over $6009, after payitg the usual commission to the auctioneer and all the other charges. Ev eryone was pleased with his purchase, and sev eral new houses are now being built on the Fret:Moos, all of which may bo seen as the pas sengers pass along by railroad.
