NURSEtlY POR SALE. 



A rare ciianre is now oflereil for ihc purchase of a younff 

 nursery and I'arni, al CovingCon, Kenuirky, which fronts half a 

 mile on the Licking Kiver, within a mile of ils juncl'on witli 

 Ihe Ohio, tlireclly opposite to Cincinnati., Tlie nin-scry and 

 farm comprise Uil acres of tlle very richest Keirtucky soil ; 

 about 50 acres are laid down to mowing, l)et\veen 30 and 4ii 

 to tillage, including the nursery, and from 12 to 15 acres are 

 filled with tiinlier fi»r fencing and fuel. On the premises, an 

 orchard of 100 thrifty young apjjie trees, mostly winter fruit, 

 was set (Hit I ist year ; also another orchard of 200 Pear- 

 trees, comprising 72 difterent sorts, including all the winter 

 varieties oi' talile pears, of which the demand fur the New Oi-- 

 leaiis inai'ket is almost uidimiied. 



On the place Is a good bi'ick house, built in 1S16, with a 

 first rate well o(' water, 45 feet deep, a large new green-house 

 just tini-hed. two large barns built in 1835, and all the usual 

 uut-houses ; also, a farm house with two rooms that will let 

 for 1^50 per auaum, suitable for a gardener or small farmer. 



The nursery was laid out in 1835, and bids fair to do a very 

 lucrative bu.-iness, as there is nothnig of the kmd west of the 

 mountains t!lat can cuinppte with it, for tlte variety aud 

 choice ch.iracter of the fruits cultivated, wlii(di were all se- 

 lected from the luu-series of Buel & Wilstm and Win. Ken- 

 rick and others, aud comprise all the new sorts mtreduced by 

 the Massachusetts Horticultural Society from Em-ope, aud all 

 the choice sorts cultivated near Boston; among these are 80 

 vari'-tite of i'ears, 50 of Apples, 50 of Peaches, 2 ' of Plums, 

 30 of cherries, with a gieat variety of t_irapes. Evergreens, 

 Ornamental Shrubs, &c. There are at least 100 000 seedlinus 

 of Appies, Pears, iSlc, of oue and two yeai-s gi-owth, for inoc- 

 ulation now growing ou the place. 



The above olTers a rare chance for one or two enterprisin*r 

 young men, to do a great business, in a perfectly healthy lo< a- 

 tion, where there is little oi- no coinpetit'um, and a demand fur 

 trees tliat has tints far exceeded the gi-eatest expectations of 

 its fjunders, and their ability to execute ordets. It will be 

 sold at a great bargain, on ac-count of the death of the active 

 partner of the concei-n, and the non-residence of the other. 



For terms, apply (post paid) to S. (J PARKHUKST, 

 Cincinnati, Ohio.
