H ighly improved estates and val¬ 
uable TIMBERED LAND ON LOWER JAMES RI¬ 
VER FOR SALE—The undersigned, prevented by engagements, 
requiring his undivided attention elsewhere, from residing on his 
estate, will sell, on the premises, publicly, at 11 o’clock, A. M., on 
Tuesday, the 23d day of September next, without regard to weath¬ 
er, that large and valuable body of highly improved arable and 
heavily timbered land, extending up the north side of James Ri¬ 
ver, from the Chickahominy, a distance of more than five miles, 
in the county of Charles City, Virginia, well known under the 
general designation of “ Sandy Point.” 
This estate lies 33 miles below Petersburg, 45 miles below 
Richmond, and about 65 miles above Norfolk, in what is justly 
considered the finest and most extensive grain-growing region of 
Virginia, and as healthy as any on our rivers. Spring and well 
water abundant and excellent. The number of acres is upwards 
of 4,000, of unsurpassed natural quality, of which more than 2,000 
acres have been thrioe limed, and are now in a high and success¬ 
ful state of cultivation, upon the five-field rotation; and more 
than 1,000 acres well set in clover. The balance, cliefly in wood 
and timber, embracing some of the best timbered land in Eastern 
Virginia, convenient to good navigation. Marl abounds on the 
river, and stone lime is supplied at 6^ cents per bushel. 
The division will be nearly as follows, of which surveys and 
maps will be exhibited:—

other appurtenance for threshing and winnowing wheat, shelling 
and fanning corn, grinding, and sawing ; all efficiently driven by 
a 16-horse power stationary engine, in complete order and condi¬

"|T AMDS ON LONG ISLAND, adjoining the villages 
Is A of Lakeland and Hermanville, about 48 miles from the cit¬ 
ies of New York and Brooklyn, by the Long-Island Roilroad. 
The opportunity is now offered to all those who ever wish to ob¬ 
tain land on Long Island, the ancient “Garden of America,” that 
will probably never occur again ; for these lands are the only re¬ 
maining new lands on the island, and are equal in quality, when 
cultivated, to any other land. 
The results of cultivation on these island lands have been so 
great, so much beyond the expectations of any one, that they are 
now considered of great value for farms and gardens, and will, 
in all probability, be all taken up for settlement and occupation, 
or be held at more than five times their present price. All kinds 
of produce may now be seen growing there, such as wheat, rye, 
corn, potatoes, and garden vegetables, with fruits and flowers, in 
the most luxuriant growth, where but a short time since, the 
land was covered with trees and bushes. 
The surface of the ground is perfectly beautiful, free from 
stone, bogs, or marshes, and the climate as healthy as can be 
found in this latitude. The soil is a fine loam, admirably adapt¬ 
ed to high cultivation and great crops, and of easy tillage. 
Indeed, no New-England nor northern New-York man can 
form any adequate idea of the difference in the labor and strength 
requisite to cultivate these island lands, and that required to 
subdue their own rugged lands, until he has seen or made the 
trial; and I now offer for sale as handsome land, and intrinsi¬ 
cally as valuable, as can be found within 50 miles of the city of 
New York, in any direction, in lots of five acres or more, for the 
sum of $25 per acre. 
Any person wishing to purchase a five-acre' lot of good and 
handsome land, without one foot of water or useless ground on 
it, can do so by sending $10 as a first payment, and a further sum 
of $10 a month until half is paid, when a warantee deed and good 
title will be given, and the remainder part of the purchase money 
may be paid or secured on the land, to be paid within three or 
five years, with 6 per cent, yearly interest. Larger lots will be 
sold on the same terms. 
The title is perfectly good. I have a history or deduction of 
the title complete, certified to by legal men of the highest char¬ 
acter, which I will send by mail, with maps, pamphlets, and all 
information to all purchasers, or those who wish to be informed 
of these island lands, by applying to

P ATENT 5EINC PAINTS.—The Zinc White Paint 
is rapidly superseding white lead, over which it possesses 
many advantages. It is whiter and more beautiful than white 
lead—does not turn yellow, even when exposed to sulphurous 
vapor, has no smell, is not injurious to health, and is really 
cheaper, as it covers more surface and is more durable. This su¬ 
perior zinc paint is kept constantly on hand, both dry and ground 
in oil. 
Zinc Brown anb Black Paints are both weather and fire 
proof—the best covering for outside work ever introduced; 
adapted to buildings of wood, brick, or stone ; fences, carriage 
bodies, bridges, and machinery; the hulls of vessels, anchors, 
chains, and all other iron work on board ship; Steam boilers, 
smoke stacks, and water tanks; iron, tin, and other roofing, iron, 
shutters, doors, and railings, wire fences, &c. For iron surfaces, 
this paint is especially valuable, as it forms a galvanic connec¬ 
tion, and entirely prevents rust. May be had both dry and 
ground in oil. 
In preparing these paints for use, when dry, they should not 
only be slightly mingled with oil, but thoroughly worked in with 
as little of" it as maybe necessary to give the proper fluidity, 
when they will cover well and and give entire satisfaction. When 
ground in oil, they are treated in all respects like white lead.

T AIilJABLE REAIi ESTATE F©E SALE. 
I offer for sale my entire real estate, upon which are 35 
sets of boxes; the most of which have only been in use from one 
to two years ; with a sufficient quantity of round trees to cut al 
least 20 sets more ; the land upon which these are situated, is 
not easily surpassed by any piney lands in Eastern Carolina. 
There is upon the premises two distilleries neatly and conve¬ 
niently fitted up, with all necessary outhouses. Upon the farm, 
I think the buildings altogether are seldom excelled. Those 
wishing to purchase are invited to examine for themselves. 
Terms shall be low, and payments accommodating. Come and 
see. Any person wishing to purchase can be furnished with a 
sufficient number of teams and wagons to carry on both the op¬ 
erations of farm and turpentine, and with a year’s supply of pro¬ 
visions.
