TO NEW-YORK FxARMERS AND EMIGRANTS. 
fVNE hundred and fifteen thousand acres Illinois Lands for sale, 
G i n tracts of 40. 80, 120, 1G0 acres, or more, to suit purchasers. 
The lands are all first rate, and among the very best in the state, 
and are situated in the counties most densely settled, viz., 
Morgan, Scott, Cass. Mason, Menard, Green, Sangamon. Logan, 
Christian, Mason, McLean, Woodford, and Macoupin. To actual 
settlers every reasonable indulgence will be given as to time of 
payment. The price from $3 to $5 per acre. 
A correspondent of one of the New-York papers, writes re¬ 
specting this section oflllinois as follows: 
“ Beardstoicn, Cass Co., Til., Jan. 10, 1846. 
The Riches of the West.—Gothamites ox the Wing; —It is 
now six weeks since I left the city of Gotham, during which time f 
have seen considerable of this western country, and I must say the 
beautiful prairies of Illinois, far exceed what I had anticipated, 
and this country may truly he called the garden of the world. 
There is nothing to prevent fanners in this? country from getting 
rich, as the land is the most fertile in the world, and it will pro¬ 
duce everything grown in the vegetable kingdom. 
“ A New England man would hardly believe me if I tell him 
that some farmers here produce ten thousand bushels: of corn, and 
half as many bushels of wheat in a year, to say nothing of caitle 
and hogs, of which seme raise as many as five hundred head. One 
farmer told me that he raised the last year 6000 bushels of corn, 
and it was all produced by the labor of two men only. 
“ Cattle and sheep feed upon the prairies all winter, as they are 
seldom covered with snow.” 
Most of the above lands may be cultivated 100 years or more j 
without manuring, being of the richest alluvial soil. The titles are 
indisputable, and the lands will be sold at low prices and in quan¬ 
tities to suit purchasers. Letters (post paid) addressed to D. B. j 
Ayres, Esq., of Jacksonville, 111., or the subscriber, will receive | 
■ prompt attention. As many persons out of the state have ail idea 
that the taxes are very burdensome in Illinois, we state that they 
range from $1.50 to $2.00 per annum, on 80 acres of land.

I. T. GRANT & CO.’S PATENT PREMIUM FAN 
MILLS. 
r "PHE subscribers, manufacturers of these celebrated mills, hav- 
-I ing enlarged their manufacturing establishment, hopes to he 
enabled hereafter to supply promptly the rapidly, increasing de¬ 
mand for that article. These mills have been repeatedly tried, and 
the principle upon which thiev operate thoroughly examined and 
tested by committees appointed by the State Agricultural Society, 
and in every instance have been declared greatly superior to any 
that have come in competition with them. They have taken the 
first ‘premium at four of the New-York State Agricultural Fairs, 
(being all at which they have been exhibited.) and at the State 
I Fairs in Pennsylvania and Maryland. Our mills took the first pre¬ 
mium, and we were awarded a silver medal for the new improve- 
| meat, at the Fair of the American Institute in 1846, and they re¬ 
ceived the highest consideration at the great National Fair, re¬ 
cently held at the city of Washington. Wherever they have been 
exhibited, they have received the unqualified commendation of ag¬ 
riculturists, and are believed to be the only mills ever invented or 
manufactured, that will chaff and screen wheat perfectly clean 
(and at the rate of one bushel per minute) at one operation, taking 
out the chess, cockle, and smut at the same time. They will also 
thoroughly clean all other kinds of grains and seeds by running it 
through once. We manufacture four sizes, varying in price from 
$21 for No. 1, to $27 for No. 4, and have no hesitation in war¬ 
ranting them superior to anything of the kind now in use. 
We also manufacture very superior Grain Cradles , which have 
taken the first premium wherever exhibited. 
Our Fan Mills and Cradles are for sale at factory prices at the 
following places:
