land, > . ilaini'ig upwards of 2,OIK' acres, situated in
the S. .nth part of Medford, about halfway between
Goose t 'reek and Olfci river-, : lies on the waters of
Orr’.ck's ('reck, 11 miles >mitii ot Liberty, Li miles
West of New London, ami (i miles from Lee-ville mi
Staunton Kiver. This laird lies well, aid i- wel
watered, has about I5D or ‘2 M acres of cleared land,
fh good condition for cropping ; a considerable por
tion of the cleared land is good Tobacco land, and
the balance good grain land. The improvements
consist of a frame dwelling house with six rooms, a
kitchen and other out houses, necessary f#r a fami
ly.
We deem it unnecessary to say more in advertis

chase without first viewing tlie land for thems che
w-inch 'hey can do at any time, by applying to
Thomas Austin, Ji- on the premises.
The laud will be divided to suit purchaser*, if by
so doing, a sale can be more readily eflVctr d. Terms
