In respect to the soil and crops there can he no mistake, as visitors can exam ine both, and none are expected to buy before so do ing, and finding these statements correct—under these circumstances, unless these statements were correct, there would be no use in their being made.

Producer; this nua•ket brings double the price that it does in locations distant from the cities.. En this location it can be put into market the same morning it is gathered. and for what the farmer sells he gets the highest price: whilst groceries and other articles he purchases he gets at the lowest price. In the West, what he sells brings him a pittance. but for what he buys he pays two prices. In locating here the settler has many other advantages. Ile is within a few hours, by railroad. of all the great cities of New England and the Middle States. He is near his old friends anti associations. . Ile has school for his children. di vine service, and all the advantages of civilization, and he is near a large city. The Climate is delightful ; the winters being sa lubrious and open, whilst the summers are no warm er than in the North. The location is upon the line of latitude with northern Virginia. Persons Wanting a change of Climate for Health, would be much benefitted in Vineland. The mild ness of the climate and its bracing influence, makes it, excellent for all pulmonary aliections, dyspepsia or general debility. Visitors will notice a difference in a few days. Chills and fevers are unknown. Conveniences at Hand.---Building material is plen ty. Fish and oysters are plenty and cheap. Visitors must expect, however, to see n new place. Why the Properly has not teen Settled Before?— This question the reader naturally asks. It is be cause it. has been held in large tracts by families not disposed to sell, and being without. railroad facilities they had few inducements. The Railroad has just been opened through the property this season, for the first time. Visitors are shown over the land in a carriage, free of expense, and afforded time and opportunity for thorough investigation. Those who come with a view to settle, should bring money to secure their purchases, as locations hre not. held upon refusal. The Safest thing in Bard Times, where people have been thrown out of employment or business. and possess some little means or small incomes, is to start themselves a horns. They can buy a piece of land at. a small price. and earn more than wa g es in improving it, and whea it is done it is a certain in dependence and no ta:ts. A few acres in fruit. trees will insure a comfortalde living. The land is put down to hard 'lutes. end all improvements can be made at a cheaper rate titan most any other time.

It is only upon farms of twenty acres, or more, that four years' time.is given. TO Manufacturers, the town affords a fine opening for the SiMe manufacturing business. and other ar ticles, being near Philadelphia. and the surrounding country has a large population, which affords a good market. This settlement, in the course of several years, will be one of the most beautiful places in the coun try. and most, agreeable for a residence.

Esq.. published in the New York Tribune, in reference to Vineland. All persons oa* re d this report with interest. Advantages of Farming near Home—Vineland—Re. marks upon Marl—soil. its great Fertility—The Cause of Fertility—Amount of Crops Produced--- Practical Evidence. It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile treats. in an almost level position. and suitable condition for pleasant farming that we know of this side of the west ern prairies. We found some of the oldest favors appar ently just as profitable productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we tound evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertiary 1°1'1111110n: and this !burly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plasants the farmer desires to cultivate. Marl, in all its forms, has been used to fertilize crops in England, from the time it was occupied by the Romans; and in France and Gernmoy a marl bed is counted on as a valuable bed of manure, that can be dug and carted and spread over the field.— low much more valuable then it must be, whim found already mixed through the soil, where new particles will be turned up and exposed, and transformed to the owner's use every time he stirs the earth. I-raving then satisfied our minds of thecause, they will not be excited with wonder at seeing indubitable evidence of fertility in a soil which in other situa tions. having the same general characteristics or at least appearances, is entirely uurenunierguive except as its productiveness is promoted by artificial fertil ization. ) few words about the finality and value of this ant. for cultivation, of whion we nave some strong moot*. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Franklin township, Gloucester county, who purchased some eight miles north of Millville, about three years ago, for the purpose of establishing a. steam mill, to work up the timber into lumber, to send off' by the new railroad, as well as the firewood and coal, for which he built a branch track a mile and a half long. He also furnished sixteen miles of the road with ties, and has no doubt made the mill profitable. though his main object was to open a tarot. having become convinced that the soil was valuable Ibr cultivation. In this he has not been disappointed, as some of his crops prove. For instance, last year, the second time of cropping, 306 bushels of potatoes on one acre, worth 60 cents a bushel in the field. This year seven acres, without manure, produced 356 bushel■ of oats. In one field. the first crop was potatoes, planted among the roots, and yielded 75 bushels.— The potatoes were dug, and wheat sown, and yield ed 16 bushels; and the stubble turned under and sown to buckwheat, which yielded 314 bushels; and then the ground was sown to clover and timothy, which gave as a first crop 2,1 tons per acre. The fertilizers applied to these crops were first, ashes from clearings: second, 225 pounds of silver phosphate of lime; third, 200 pounds Peruvian gu ano; then 50 bushels of slaked lime has been spread upon the clover since it was mowed, and turned in for wheat. Mr. Wilson's growing crops, and the wheat stub ble of the present season, all indicate his land as productive as any pelt of the State. At Mary Barrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer, several miles south of Mr. Wilson's, we were so particularly struck with the fine appearance of field of corn, that we stopped to inquire of the idlest man bow iLwas produced. We found that the, land had been the year but one before in wheat, sown with clover, and this cut one season, and last spring plowed once, with one "poor old nag," and p:antol with corn. "Yes, but you manured high. we suppose ?" we said interrogatively. and got this reply : "Waal, you see, we couldn't a done that; 'cause we hedu t but forty one-horse leads altogethzr, for 23 acres, and we 'satted the most en't for the tr':•ek. The truck consisted of beets, carrots, eabla;ps, cucumbers, melons, &c., and a very productive patch of Lima beans, grown for marketing. So we were satisfied thet the soil was not ..-ifertile, even unaided. by clover, which had fed the coin, beceusethe "truck patch" had not been in cultivati‘n long enough to obliterate all signs of the forest. Our next visit. was to the large farm of Andrew Sharp, five miles north of M;Ilville, from half to a mile east of the railroad, and just about in the cen tre of Vineland. Mr. Sharp commenced work here in December. 1858, upon 270 acres, In less than three years. he has got 234 acres cleared and in crops this season, as well inclosed and divided into several fields, with cedar rail or pole fence ; has built a two-story dwelling, about 31 by 40 feet, and a smaller house for farm laborers, and a stable and granary and sonic other out buildings. Considerable part of the land was cleared for the plow at $ll an acre. and on some of it the first crop was buckwheat, limed with 50 bushels in powder per acre. This crop may be put in July 4th to 20th, and yields 20 to 80 Usliels per acre. harvested in November; when the land being sowed with 1561hs of Peruvian guano and seeded with rye. yielded 12 to 15 bushels per acre and $lO worth of straw. The ryelstubhle turned. after knocking off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with guano and seeded to wheat, gave 15 or It; bushels.

We went over the stubble, and found the clover and timothy, from seed sowed last spring, on the wheat without harrowing. looking as well as we ever saw it upon any old cultivated farm, and with a lit tle work done in the winter to clear otr some roots and rotten slumps, and setting stakes to mark per manent ones, he will be able to cut the crop the next year with a mowing machine. and we will guarantee two tons per acre. if he will give the overplus if it over runs the estimate. Part of the land was planted with potatoes for a first crop, which yielded 120 bushels per acre. It was then limed with 50 bushels per acre, and seeded with wheat and clover, yielded and average of over .15 bushels per acre, and the clover now looks beau tiful. Other portions have been planted with corn es /1. first crop. which yielded 30 bushels of yellow °Ant corn. and the second crop 40 bushels. and ihe third crop. treated toOlbs. of guano, we are sure no one would estimate below 40 bushels per acre.
