IjAND for sale. 



I OFFER for sale about 450 acres of land, in the 

 County of Prince William, lying on Cedar Run. 

 It is of good quality, well adapted to clover and plas- 

 ter, and produces good crops of wheat, corn and oats. 

 About 300 acres are cleared and the balance in tim- 

 ber, much of it very superior. There are from 50 to 

 60 acres bottom land, some of which is very fertile, 

 and all capable of being made first ra:e meadow 

 land ; there is a small tract of 219 acres adjoining it, 

 upon which there is a small dwelling house and barn, 

 which would be leased to the purchaser until the mi- 

 nor, to whom it belongs, shall have arrived at the 

 age of 21 ; when, it could be purchased on reasona- 

 ble terms — say 3 years hence— or an order of court 

 might perhaps be had by me now, should the pur- 

 chaser wish to add it immediately by purchase. 



These two parcels o^ktnd would make one of the 

 best farms in this section of the country. Terms — 

 one-third cash, the balgtce in one and two years,
