Valuable Virginia Land for Sale. 
I OFFER for sale between 700 and 800 acres of land , handsomely 
located in Prince George county, Va., lying immediately on Chip 
Oaks Creek, adjoining Lower Brandon plantation on the south, 25 
miles from Petersburg. About 200 acres are cleared, and the balance 
tolerably well timbered with oak and pine. The cleared land was 
marled several years ago, and 1,000 bushels of marl, with 1,500 bush¬ 
els of lime have been recently applied to it. 
The improvements are a good brick house, with five rooms—from 
which there is a beautiful prospect of James River—a kitchen, smoke¬ 
house, stable, a barn with stationary horse power attached, and a 
well of good water. The buildings are within 300 yards of the main 
landing where vessels load with produce, wood, &c., and unload 
lime at seven cents per bushel. Marl abounds on the opposite side 
of the creek. The whole tract is well watered by springs and brooks, 
that run through fine meadow lands, a part of which are cleared. 
I will sell it entire or in parcels to suit purchasers, as it can be ad¬ 
vantageously divided into four farms, if not sold privately, (of which 
due notice wiil bo given,) before the 30th day of September next, I 
will sell it upon the premises, on that day, at public auction, without 
reserve. 
Persons wishing to view the property, will leave the Richmond 
and Norfolk boat at Lower Brandon wharf on James river, three 
miles from the property; or I will give any informaiion to those ad¬ 
dressing me (post-paid) at Cabin Point P. O., Surrey county, Va.

$1,000 Challenge. 
I OFFER to place one thousand dollars , cash , into the hands of a 
party chosen, against one thousand , to be paid, into the hands of the 
same party, by any manufacturer of threshers in the United States, 
if a machine can be found that will thresh and clean, fit for market, 
or seed, with the aid of only two horses, 100 bushels of wheat and 
rye, in less time than I can with my “ Excelsior Wrought Iron Cy¬ 
lindrical Thresher and Cleaner.” The grain to be thoroughly thresh¬ 
ed, without white caps or broken, and the straw delivered long enough 
to stack, and free from chaff. The winner to reaeive the $2,000 with 
both machines and power. 
An acceptance of the above must be in the hand writing and over 
the signature of the acceptor, stating his ability to pay the forfeit, and 
sworn to before any legally authorised person.

grain is extra large, and makes the best of flour. It produces 
a greater average crop than any other variety now grown in New-

less liable to rust or mildew than other kinds; and as the stalk is large 
and strong, it is also less liable to blow' down or lodge. Price. $4 
per bushel. Other varieties of wheat, such as the White Flint, Me¬ 
diterranean, Black Sea, Ac. 
BUCKWHEAT, of the best kinds in market.
