LOTS FOR SALE I.V THE TOU.V OF CLINTON THE undersigned reepectfuily inform their friends an d tt.e public, ti.ai tnej hae !aiu out anew town on the wo;t;n bank of the W abash, Il or 11 miles abovc Poi t-lLrrison, aiid 1 3 r 14 above Torre Haute, and Intend offering u.tir

lots lor sale at Public Auction on th first day of September next. I he si it

oi this town mav be classed with those

of the mo.t beautiful on the hanks of the Wabash, (and somewhat reseiobies i.jT of Fort-Harrison,) rising gradually from the river, for about 1 50 yart s. to the height of htm 4()to so feet abct I L;h watermark, and is teitninated with a horizontal plain of half a miic in width. No'town on the Wabash can boast ot a more delightful view of the river, a bet ter landing and harbour for boats both in time of ice. and at every Stage of water. The adja rut country is very fertile baa every appearance of being health) and abounds with streams of excellent water; some ol them afford good mill scitesjOii which it is expected one or two mills will be erected the present season Stone ot several kincs have been found jn the ad jacent hilis ; the most common are granite, lime, and freestone lion ore, and Stone I oale, has also been discovered ; the latter in great abundance, but has not as yet been much sought after. The settlement in theicinity of this place is yet in its infancy, owing in a great measure to the m ant of Mills and some little disturbances with the Indians, since the termination of the war. It is however increasing very fast and soon will be able to surmount these difficulties, and should the emigration to this country be equal to what is anticipated this part of the country will soon become very populous. There is no other scite for a town on the wesu rn bank of the Wabash from the boundary line to near the center of the eleventh township a space of about 3o miles ; this circumstance tog ther with the fertility of the soil, ibr a great distance, weatwardry pf the river ; and the prospect of a populous settlement, render this place an object worthy the attention of those who may w ish to become purchasers of town property. A few h.ts are set r.part by the proprietors, and are intended to be given as donations to individuals whaj mav wish to become actual settiers previous to the day of sale.
