 best tracts of Land in North Carolina. It con- ■ 

 tains 1500 acres, lying on Tar river and immediately 

 upon the Raleigh and Gaston Rail Road. The situa- (

 Crudup.

EXTENSIVE SALE OF 

 IMPROVED SHORT-HORNED CATTLE* 



HAVING become over-stocked, I find myself un- 

 der the necessity, lor the first time, of publicly 

 ottering my cattle for sale; and that the opportunity 

 to purchase fine animals may be made the more invi- 

 ting, I propose to put in my Entire Herd — such a 

 herd of Improved Short Horns as has never before, 

 perhaps, been offered by any individual in this coun- 

 try. The sale will embrace about fifty animals, Bulls, 

 Cows and Heifers; all either imported, or the imme- 

 diate descendants of those which were so, and of per- 

 fect pedigree. Those imported, were from several of 

 the best stocks in England, selected either by myself 

 or my friends. 



It is sometimes the practice at sales of this kind, 

 where the interest involved is considerable, for the 

 proprietor to protect himself by by-bidders or some 

 other kind of management, or for the owner to stop 

 the sale if offers do not come up to his expectations 

 or the requirements of his interest. Such practices 

 have a tendency to lessen the interest in public sales 

 of this character, especially with those who cannot 

 attend without considerable personal inconvenience. 

 But in this case, assurances are given that no disap- 

 pointment shall arise to the company from either of 

 the causes mentioned, and a good degree of confi- 

 dence is felt that there will be no dissatisfaction from 

 the character of the cattle themselves. They shall 

 all be submitted to the company, and sold at such 

 prices as they choose to give, without any covert ma- 

 chinery, effort, er understanding with any persons ; 

 reserving to myself only the privilege of bidding 

 openly on three or four animals, which shall first be 

 designated. This reservation is made that I may not 

 get entirely out of the stock of some particular f ami- 

 lies which I highly esteem, and ihat could not proba- 

 bly be replaced. 



A full catalogue will be prepared and inserted in 

 the May No. of the Cultivator. 



The sale will take place at Mount Hope, one mile 

 south of the City of Albany, on Wednesday, the 25th 

 day of June next, at 10 o'clock, A. M.

f^Gentlemen from a distance, who wish to obtain 

 stock at the above-mentioned sale, and may find it 

 inconvenient to attend in person, are informed that 

 the subscriber will make purchases for those by 

 whom he may be authorized. They can state the 

 sum at which bids should be limited, and if conve- 

 nient, designate the animals they would prefer; or 

 give such general instructions as they may deem pro- 

 per, under the assurance that it will be strictly ad- 

 hered to. SANFORD HOWARD.
