850,000 somis or ~~ L A ND: Lying in the countses of Eric, Crawford, Warren and Venango, in the state of Pennsylvania. L YTTVHE Subscribers being appointed sub. ° T agents to dispole of the above Lands,. offer to the public the following inviting des- 'cription, being a letter from Augustus Sacket, Eaq. one of the principalfagents for the pro- prictors, now refiding at Meadville, on faid tra&t.-In defcribing the lands, he fays :- «I muft here declare that the fol- . lowing defcription of the lands and the \ country is frrictly true ; which on viewing. will be found to be unexaggerated fafts. _L «« pgye been for nearly © 20 years in the habit af buying and felling unimproved lands in new countries, in various parts of the Uni- ted States, and have fpent nearly 10 years at Sacket's Harbor; but have never feen bet- ter lands than thofe wenow offer for fale, at the low price 'of Three Dolfars per acre, on a credit of ten years, the two firlt years without intereft, and then on an intereftt of 6 per cent per annum, payable yearly. The title is clear and indifputable , and warram tee deeds will be given to le tiers in the fickt inftagce, if, preferrqd to contracts, and the land taken in fecurity for the payment. It is an incontgfible fast and univerfally allows» ~ ed throughout this ftate, that this country has a greater body of fine Jands than any other part eof Penn{ylvania, not excepting the county of Lancafter. No partof the United States, exhibits better lapds, a mild- er climate, finer water, a healthier country, a more productive foil, or where Previdence , has been more bountiful and la vith of; his fa-J vors. The inhabitants are friendly, fobery and hospitable. abound wit & The . woods wild honey, deer, wild turkeys, &c. Our rivers and creeks are uninterrupted by fal‘l‘s, bad rapids or fhoals, . and are navigated by boats from 5 to 30 tous burthen, carrying the preductions of the fouthern (latesiggnd the articles manufaftured at Pitifburgh and Harmony to the north, ana returning with articles of the Lake country ; opening the eaficft communication in the United States, between them. I have not feen, nor do I know of any ftagnant waters or unheaithy marfhes in the country, The Fever and Ague are unknown among «s. Many peo- .- ple have®¥emoved here from N+ w-Connecti- cut, the Miammi, the Ohio find other.coun- ies, for the bunefit of thei~ health. Ort slimate is fuited to the mott delicate fruits ; peaches and the bef kinds 'of European grapes are cultivated to advantage. The wheat and other grain carmnot be better :- Springs and Areams ef excellent water are every where found, fo that it is impeffible to find 100 acres, without a good fpring. The country is confiderably advanced in improve- ment and population. | Roads are opened & travelled in almofi every direCtion, and in this fate, all lands or not are equita- bly fubje@ to be taxed for reads. The face of the country is variegated with the rich Sugar-Maple, and Beach land, with more or lcfs Buttfiut,filack Walnut, Buttan Wood, Cucumber, Caeftnut, Osk, Hic'kory, and oc- cafionally a Pine Grove. This country is handfomely diverfied by gentle hills and val- lies and on molt of the freams, {here are ex- tenfive and luxurient Flatts or intervatils, & prairies, which, in my opimian. are fuperior in richnefs df foil to the Mohawk or Ger. man flatts» This ceuniry is much in want of merchants and good mechanics of all kinds. The article of Pot-ath in a new country, has never been manufaéttm- here, tho' it is very rauch wanted at Picts. burgh, and other places, for their Giafs and other Factories, wherg it will readily feli for about $150 a ton ; which J prefume may be taken. there by water fo as mot to coft more - - than «4 dollars for that quantity. The ex- 47\ 1, péntagipin'f’fl'f it 1s equally cheap and eafy ei- ther@@: Mofitreal by the lakes, or to the fouthern markets on the fea coalt, by water. Two pot afk kettles weighing a ton msy be ~delivered here for about 50 dollars each.- 'The Sugar Maple tres berng very plenty, large quantities of Sugar may be made, which will readily feil for $12,80 per owt. We have lately fixed om the scite for the rowpnfhip and, village of sacketqurgh, in ta, thée:county of Wargenm. This townlhip I ex- - -® , peét will be filled up Foon, & I fatter omy feif = \C that next year we wili commence the build. inz of a meeting boule and acad¢my in the Bice. .

We are as fecure from am enemy as 'any part of the U. Scates, being in a feuded country remote trom the war, and can if vecelfary raife five or fix thoufibd militia. The natural markets for felling onr produce, are Pittfburgh, N. Or- leans, Philadelphia,& B. ltimore. In peace- able times our beit markets are Detroit, the Lake country, Montreal, Quebec,or we may fend \our articles to the city of New.-Yo. ks with lefs than 40 miles land carr age. \If the farmers of old and worn out lands, knew with how much more eale and comfort to themfeives, they could live here without the yearly toil-and expenf{e of by the faid Johua in his life timg of Efeck L.
