VALUABLE REAL ESTATE IN DINWIDDIE CO., VA., 

 FOR SALE. 



A RARE opportunity for investment is now presented to capi- 

 talists or a company desiring to combine hotol keeping with 

 mercantile and general mechanical pursuits. 



The multiplicity of my professioaal and private engagements 

 alone induces me to oU'er for sale one-half or the whole of the ex- 

 tensive and commodious Hotel and appurtenances at Dinwiddle 

 Court House — including the laud which surrounds the Court 

 House, about 400 ucreS, the oliices and residences, together with 

 all the numerous privileges connected with the property. 



The Hotel has recently been thoroughly repaired, painted, 

 newly enclosed, and every way fitted out for the accommoda- 

 ation of the public. It is situated at the county seat, imine 

 diately on the Doydton and Petersburg Plank Road, within 14 

 miles of the city of Petersburg and 3t) of the city of Richmond. 

 The iSouth-sidc Railroad passes within 8 miles, and the Petersburg 

 and Raleigh Railroad within 11 miles, of this place. This cst;ib- 

 ILshment, with the offices and residences, the store and blacksmith's 

 shop, the extensive stables in comjilete repair, and capable of ac- 

 commodating 200 horses, a spacious and unfailing ice-house, and 

 all other convenient out-houses attached, together with a Church 

 and a Male and Female Academy on the land, an extensive Foun- 

 dry now in process of erection by an intelligent and judicious com- 

 pany, and a number of handsome residences adjacent, owned by 

 tlie subscriber and others, already constitutes an attractive village, 

 which, by enlightened liberality on tlie part of the owner, in in- 

 viting and encouraging persons engaged in the dilferent commer- 

 cial and mechanical pui suits to settle here, may be quickly made 

 an important place of business and greatly tributary to all the 

 leading inteiests of the city of Petersburg. 



The Hotel has a large and rapidly-increasing patronage ; it is a 

 regular eating-house for the stage pa.ssengers. The Post Ofllce is 

 kept here. On court and all other public days, the dining-room, 

 bar and stables are liberally encouraged, and yield large and certain 

 profits. The vicinity of this hotel to Petersburg, its ease of access 

 from every quarter, the well-established healthfulness of the place, 

 together with the agreeable society around, render it a pleasant 

 summer retreat for families and invalids from the heat and dust of 

 the cities. The tract of land is chiefly in woods, and contains an 

 inexhaustible supply of timber for plank, rails and fuel. The open 

 land is improv-ed and in regular cultivation. The soil is naturally 

 very good, and susceptible of the liighest degree of improvement. 



The place is fully supplied with the purest water, from a well ancl 

 I number of sprin:;3. The almost unexampled success of the dif- 

 ferent works of internal improvement passing through this counii-y, 

 together with the general prosperity of the county, has greatly 

 enhanced the value of all lauds and places of business contiguous 

 lo these improvements ; and at no place has pioperty more rapidly 

 or steadily advanced than on this Plank Road, in the neighborhood 

 )f Dinwiddle Court House, and between this place and Petersburg. 

 Bach successive sale of real estate shows a striking advance upon 

 previous sales, and admonishes purchasers to buy at once. 



Tha confident opinion of the most judicious "and prudent busi- 

 uess men is, that this property has already increased in value, and 

 that its piospective value, looking to — as a certain event— \he 

 jpeedy development of all its ad\-antages, comprising as they do 

 ill tlie elements of an important village, is incalculably gieat. 

 N'othing could tempt me to forego the certain great pecuniary ad- 

 vantage tViat will assuredly accrue in a few years to an enterprising 

 >wner of this property, but the earnest desire on my part to di- 

 minish the cares of business, and to devote my energies in their 

 iccustomed and more ajipropriate sphere. 



1 should prefer to sell one-half of this property to an enter- 

 irLsing and capable business man or company, who would take 

 charge of the whole concern ; but if desired by purchasers, I will 

 5cU the whole. Possession can be had whenever the sale is made, 

 )r at the end of the piesent year, as may be desired. The terms 

 will 1 e made liberal and accommodating as to time. By the pur.c- 

 Lnal payment of interest as it accrues the deferred payments may 

 •un for a series of years. 



The pioperty will be shown by Major Anderson or me, both re- 

 iiding on the premises, to any one desiring to see it. Letters di- 

 ■Dcted to me at Dinwiddle Court House will be pniraijtly answered. 

 Should this property not be sold before the EIGHTEENTH OF 

 SEPTEMBER next "(Dinwiddie county court day), of which due 

 lotice will be given through the papers, one-half of the whole of 

 he property will then and. there be offered to the higlict bidder 

 tt public auction. E. H. SMITH. 



JfT^ I have also for sale several most desirable tracts of land, 

 varying in distance fiom 6 to 16 miles from Peter.sburg, all on or near 

 Ihe Eoydton and Petersburg Plank Road. Among them are several 

 veil-fixed firming tracts, with residences and all necessary out- 

 louses. The remainder are valuable timber lands. A circular, de- 

 icribing these lands, will be sent to any one wishing to purchase. 

 These lands will be sold low, and on accommodating terms.

 bid Inaction of the Bowels and Pain arising therefrom, Flatu-

Read the following professional report from A. A. Hayes, M. I)., 

 Assay er of the State of Massachusett.s, and one of the btst practi- 

 c;il chemists in the world. He is a scholar whose reputation and 

 usefulness are, like Liebig's, of Germany, an honor to his country : 



Dr. J. C. Ayer, Lowell, Mass. — My dear Sir : — I have made a 

 careful analyses of your Pill.s, with the formula for their prepara- 

 tion. They contain the active principles of well-known drugs, 

 isolated from inert matter, which plan is, chemicalh' speaking, one 

 of great importance to their usefulness. It not only gives the con- 

 centrated virtues of medicines, but insures great activity, certainty, 

 and uniformity of ellect. 



Your use of "Ricmine," the active principle of the castor bean, 

 is new to me, and your course of procuring it by chemical analy- 

 sis from the bean is certainly valuable. 



Your Pills coniain no metallic or mineral substance, but the vir- 

 tues of vegetable remedies, in skillful combination. 



Respectfully, A. A. IIatks.

 This may certifj' that Dr. A. A. Hayes is a practical chemist of 

 this city, whoso reputation and eminence in his profession is well

New York, 17th Nov., 1853. 



Dr. J. C. Aykr — De.ar Sir : — I take much pleasure in informing 

 you that I have derived groat benefit from the use of your medi- 

 cines, and can most cheerfully recommend your Cathartic Pills to 

 all who need such a remedy. They are the" best family medicine I 

 have ever employed, and must be esteemed by the public when 

 their virtues are known. Geo. H. Christy.

The following, fi:om an eminent practicing physician in the 

 South, shows how the Pills are appreciated by the medical profes- 

 sion ; and as the writer is also Postmaster, we' have conclusive evi- 

 dence that he is a responsible and respectable man : 



H.amilton, Miss., Nov. 9, 1853. 

 Deak Sir :^Mr. Blair, of Columbus, supplied me with your Ca- 

 thartic Fills .and formula, and I have since used them in my pnic- 

 tice with more than ordinary results. They exhibit excellence in 

 their action which betoken no common lemedy, and 1 can pro- 

 nounce them decidedly the surest and lest ijperient we have ever 

 been able to procure in this seciion. They are a desideratum long 

 felt in our prescriptions, and have proved th(niselves to be the 

 very article 1 have many years sought for in vain. Trusting you 

 will not fail to supply the community with a discovery- which must 

 be the moans of immense benefit to "the sick, 



I am, sir, with respect, yours, &c.,
