IT IS A SIX PERCENT LOAN, THE INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL PA YABLE IN COIN, THUS YIELDING OVER NINE PER CENT. PER ANNUM at the present rate of •premium on ,gin. The. Government requires all duties on imports to be paid in Gold ; these duties for a long time past amounted to over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars daily, a sum nearly three times greater than that required in the payment of the interest on all the 8-20's and other permanent Loans. So that-it is hoped that the surplus Coin in the Treasury, at. no distant day, will enable the United States to resume specie payments upon all liabilities. The Loan is called 5-20 from the fact that Bonds may run for 20 years. yet the Government has a right to pay them off in Gold at par, at any time after 5 years. THE INTEREST TS PAID HALF-YEARLY, viz: on the first days of Noveniber and May.

The Soil is. in great part. a Mich Clay Loam, suit able for Wheat, Grass and Potatoes—also a dark and rich sandy loam, suitable for corn, sweet-potatoes. tobacco, all kinds of vegetables and root crops, and the finest varieties of fruit, such as Grapes, Pears, Peaches, Apricots, Nectarines, Blackberries, Melons and other fruits, best adapted to the Philadelphia and New York Markets. 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 he no use in their being made. It is considered the best Fruit soil in the Union. [See Reports of Solon Robinsen„ Esq., of the New YOrk Tribune, and the well-known agriculturist. William Parry, of Cinnaminson, New Jersey, which will be furnished inquirers.] The Market.---By looking over a Map the reader will perceive that it enjoys the best market in the Un ion, and has direct communication with New York and Philadelphia twice a day, i ing only thirty-two miles from thelatter. Produce this market brings double the price that it does in locations distant from the cities. in 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 lie 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. He is within a few hours, by railroad, of all the great cities of New England and the. Middle States. Ile is near his old friends and 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 affections, dppepsia 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 a new place. Why the I'r•operty has not been Settled Btfore ? 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 are not held upon refusal. The Safest thing in Hard Times, where people have been thrown oat of employment, or business, and possess some little means or small incomes, is to start themselves a home. They can buy a piece of laud at. a small price. and earn more than wabes in improving it, and - •faea it. is done it is a certain in dependence and no orls. A few acres in fruit. trees will insure a comfortable living. The lam: is put down to hard times. and all improveMents can be made at a chea t ,3r rate than most any other time.

To Manufacturers. the town affords a fine epening for the Shoe 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 yenrs, will be one of the most beautiful places in the court try. and most. agreeable for a residence.. It is intended to Make it a Vine and Fruit grow ing country, as this culture is the most profitable and the best adapted to the market. Every advan tage and convenient° for settlers will be introduced which will insure the prosperty of the place.

IRWIN Report of Solon Robinson, 07F.W TOE TEI.II E, IIuN THE VINELAND SETTLEMENT Irate' The following is an extreet from the report of Solon Robinson. Esq., published iu the New York Tribune, in reference to Vineland. All pereons coat re..d this report with interest. Advantages of Farming near Monte—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 Anti/4 teat* in an almost level position, and suitable condition far pleasant farming that we know of this side of the west ern prairies. lie found some of the oldest farms 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 thin continued fertility. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances. generally in tho form of ndurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertiary formation; and this manly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plasauta the farmer desires to cultivate. Marl, in all its forms, has been used to fertilize crops in England, front the time it was occupied by the Romans; and in France and Gerumny a marl bed is counted on as a valuable bed of manure, that, can be dug and carted and spread over the field.— How much more valuable then it must be, when found already mixed through the soil, where new particles will be turned up and exposed, and transformed to the owner's use every lime he stirs the earth. tlaving then satisfied our min& 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 unrenunierative except as its productiveness is promoted by artificial fertil iiation. A ,'ew words about the quality and value, of this an. for cultivation, of which we have some strong proof. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Franklin township, Gloucester county, who purchased somo eight mile• north of 111111 ville. 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. lle 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 farm, baying become convinced that. the soil was valuable for cultivation. In this he has not been disappointed, as some of his crops prove. For inst‘nce, last, year, the second time of cropping, 306 bushelS or potatoes on one acre, worth 60 cents tr bushel in the field. This year seven acres, without manure. produced 356 bushels 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 33 1 bushels; and then theground was sown to clover and timothy, which gave as a first crop 21. tons per acre. The fertilizers applied to these crops were first, ashes from clearings: second, 225 pounds of super 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 ix for wheat. Mr. Wilson's growing crops, and the wheat stub ble of the present. season, all indicate his land as productive as any,part of the State. At Mary Brirrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer, several miles south of Nr. Wilson's, we were so particularly struck with the fine appearance of s field of corn, thatwe stopped to inquire of the hired man how it was produced. We found that the land had been the year but one before in wheat. sown with clover, and this cut one season, and lest spring plowed once, with one "poor old nag," and planted with corn. "Yes, but you immured high. we suppose ?" we said interrogatively. and got thW 'reply "Waal, you see, we couldn't a done that; 'cause we badn t. hut forty one-horse loads altogether, for 23 acres, and we wanted the most on't for the track. The truck consisted of beets, carrots, cabbie:a, cucumbers, melons, &c., and a very productive patch of Lima beans, grown for marketing. So we were satisfied that the soil was not lafertile. even unaided by clover, which had fed the sore, because the "truck patch" had not been in cultivali‘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 3iillville, 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 the. 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; hay built a two-story dwelling. about 36 by 40 feet, and a smaller house for Dam laborers, and a stable and granary and some other out. buildings. Considerable part of the land was cleared for the plow at $9 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 yieldi 20 to 30 bushels per acre, harvested in November; when the land betng•sowed with 150Ibs of Peruvian guano and seeded with rye, yielded 12 to 15 bushels per acre and $lO worth of straw. The ryeistubble turned, after knocking off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with guano and seeded to wheat, gave 14 or 16 bushels. The crop which he was threshing while we were there promi ses more, of a very plump grain, and the straw is very heavy. We went over the stubble, and found the clover and timothy, front 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 off some roots and rotten stumps. and setting stakes to mark per manent Ones, be will be able to out the crop the next year with a mowing machine, and we will guarantee two tons per acre, if he will give the ow:a:plus 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 as a first crop. which yielded 30 bushels of yellow . °.tet corn, and the second crop 40 bushels, and the third crop, treated to 150Ibs. of guano, we are sure no one would estimate below 40 bushels per acre. [The reader will recollect that the writer is now speaking of land perfectly new, and which can scarcely be considered in good arable condition Eu.] . - In other cases. the corn crop of last year was fol lowed with oats this season, not yet threshed. but will average probably 40 to 50 bushels. Sweet po tatoes, beans. melons, and, in fazt, all garden veg etables, as well as young peach and other fruit trees planted this year show very plainly that this long-neglected tract of land should remain so no longer. and there is now a strong probability that it will not ; for under the auspices of Mr Landis, it will he divided into small lots, with roads located to accommodate all—the surveyor is now busy at this work—and all purchasers will he required to build neat comfortable houses, and either fence their lots in uniformity. or agree to live without fence, which would be preferable, by which means a good population will he secured, who will estab lish churches. schools, stores, mills. mechat le shops and homes—homes of American farmers, surround ed by gardens, e•rchards,. fields and comforts of civ ilized life. If sty one, from any derangement of business, is desirous of changing his pursaits of life, or who is frog any cause desirous to and a new location ,and atop home in the country, and who may read and believe what we bare truly stated, he will do Krell to go and see for himself what may be seen within a two heurs'.rida o.tt of Philadelphia.
