VALUABLE FARM ON STATEN ISLAND FOR 
SALE. 
T HE well known farm of the late Samuel Akerly, M. D., situa¬ 
ted on the South side of Staten Island, in the town of South- 
field, Richmond county, in consequence of the decease of its late 
owner, is now for sale. It contains 125 acres, 25 of which are 
woodlandl; is in a high state of cultivation, and well stocked with 
a variety of fruit trees. The house has been recently enlarged—is 
ample and commodious ; the barns are new, and the farm is 
in good fence. It has a wide front to the water on a bay which 
abounds with the best kind of salt water fish, also with clams and 
oysters, all easily procured fresh from their native element. The 
experience of a long course of years, for the main part of the dwell¬ 
ing house has stood for more than a century, has demonstrated 
tliat the situation is perfectly healthful. 
The late owner, Dr. Akerly, died in July last; he had cultiva¬ 
ted the farm for a number of years with great assiduity and 
care, keeping a daily and most minute register of the precise 
amount of labor and cultivation bestowed on each field, and 
noting many important observations which would be highly in¬ 
structive and useful to the future owner. The purchaser may 
be furnished with a copy of this diary. 
The site of this farm is extremely beautiful—the approach to it 
from the main road is a private road of about half a mile in length, 
running mostly through a piece of woodland, consisting of young 
timber of vigorous growth. After the visitor has travelled on this 
road about one-third of a mile, there opens upon him a prospect 
which takes in the low land, comprising the cultivated part of 
the farm—the placid and bright bay which separates Staten 
Island from Monmouth county, N. J.,—the highlands of Neversink, 
with the two lighthouses erected thereon—the lighthouses on and 
near Sandy Hook, together with the one at Prince’s Bay, including 
the west end of Long Island. All the vessels employed in the 
commerce of New-York with foreign countries may be seen 
as they come in and depart, from the dwelling house and several 
other points on the farm. 
The late owner, Dr. Akerly, who was born and educated in this 
city, after extensive examination and inquiry for a farm to which 
he might retire, on account of impaired health, selected this spot, 
to which he removed m the year 1839. Here he sought health and 
quiet retirement, and found them, until the day before, his decease. 
He became exceedingly attached to the farm as a residence, and 
would have most reluctantly exchanged it for any other resi¬ 
dence whatever. Such were its attractions that he never left it a 
single day, in winter or summer, but with regret.
