LOTS FOR SALE IN THE TOWN OF GREENWICH. THE subscriber respectfully informs

the public that he has laid out a new town at the Falls of White River, & intends to offer the lots for sale at Auction, on the 14th day of July next. This is one of the most eligible scites for a Town in the Forks of White River: and posseaaea several verv important advantagea ; one oftlie most distinguished, ia the great scite for water works, w'.ie'i appears calculated f r rilla to any extent and will be partiaJ y improved this season, by the con leti n of a Saw-mill that was commence I 'a.t Summer, bv capt. F. Sholts. The navigation of White River, will also be of great importance to this Town; whenever the interior part of thia state becomes thickly settled, and Merchant milts erected at these talis, will undoubtedly be supplied with Wheat fort!e New-Orieans Market, from great distance up the river The adjacent country is generallv land of the second quality ; a large proportion of it tillable, and will admit of a populoua settlement. The main road from Kentucky through Louisville, to Vincen nes and St. Louis , and aho the road from the State of Ohio to those places, crosses White River at Greenwich. A small part of the purchase money will be required in hand, and a credit of 6, 12 and 18 months, will be given for the balance, Honds with approved security will be required. William Harris. May 18. l si 8. 25 tl 14 Vy. T7The Editor of the Indiana Herald Corvdon, and the Tocsin Salem, will please insert the above 3 weeks, and forward their accounts to this office for pavment. LOTS FOR SALE .V THE TOWX OF CLINTON. THE undersigned respectfully inform their friends and the public, that they have laid out anew town on the western bank of the Wabash, 1 I or I i miles above Port-Harrison, and 1 3 or 14 above Terre Haute, and intend offering their lots for aale at Public Auction on the first day of September next. The acite of this town may be classed with those of the most beautiful on the banks of the Wabash, (and somewhat resembles t . :it of Fort-Harrison,) rising gradually from the river, for about ISO yards to the height of from 40 to 50 feet above high watermark, and is terminated uth a horizontal plain of haif a mile in width. No town on the Wabash tan boast of a naore delightful view of the river, abetter landing and harbour for boats both in timf of ice, and at every stare of water. 1 he adjacent country is very fertile

has every rpcr-rc of fcem hcaM,yf and abounds with streams of excellent water ; some of them afTord good nail scites, on which it is expected one or two mills will be erected the present season Stone of several ku.ns huc been found in the adjacent hills ; the most common are granite, lime, nd freestone; Iron ore, and Stone Coalc, has also bet ti discovered ; the latter in j;reat abundance, but has not as yet been much sought after. The settlement in the vicinity of this place is yet in its infancy, ow in in a j:reat measure to the v ant of Mills and some little disturbances with the Indians, since the termination otthc w r. It is however increasing very fust and soon will be able to surmount these difficulties, and should the emigration to this country be equal to wl at is anticipated, this part of the country w ill soon become very populous. There is no other scite for a town on the western bank of the Wabash from the boundary line to near the center of the eleventh township a space of about 30 miles ; this circumstance together with the fertility of the soil, for a threat distance, westw ardly of the river ; and the prospect of a populous aettlemetit, render thia place an object worthy the attention of those who m if wish to become purchasers of to-, n property. A lew lots arc set apart by the proprietors, and arc intended to be given as donations to individuals wl: niav wish to become actual settlers previous to the day of sale. Those Merchants or Mec' anicks, who may wish to avail themaelvea of this advantage, are refered to Mr Truman Rlackman, residing in Fort Harrison prairie, w ho is authorised to enter into contracts to tl e mutual interest of the parties Terms of saie to be published here ftcr.
