son, except our entertainer, who was in the secret,

mirable manner in which Matthews supported his
assumed character, but above all, the celerity with
which he returned, so completely altered in hisi
appearance, precluding the possibility of his being
identified.

'T'RUST SALK.— Pursuant to a Deed of Trust,
X bearing date on the 3<1 day of January, 1640,
and of record in the Clerk’s Office of Norfolk Coun
ty, executed by James H. Langhorne to secure a
certain debt therein mentioned-, to Dempsey W alls,
will be sold at public auction, for cash, on the
nremisi s, on THURSDAY, the fctli day of Novem
ber, 1645, at 12'o’clock, A FARM, containing, bv
estimation. 140 acres, delightfully situated between
the main road leading to Gosport, mid the fields, or
common, adjoining the town uf Portsmouth; and
yet its privacy is protected by narrow coves on the
North and East, which separate it from the above
named places. It is so convenient to Norfolk and
Portsmouth, that if cultivated as a Dairy Farm, its
productions might be conveyed to cither place with
out the difficulty and expense attending distance.
It is not more than a mile from the Steamboat land
ings in Portsmouth. To one acquainted with man
aging such an establishment, it would doubtless be
profitable. Besides the usual out-bouses and a good
Well of water in the yard, there is an excellent
Frame Dwelling, with three rooms and a passage
below, and three rooms above stairs. The cleared
land is in an improving 3tate, with an orchard ol
Fruit Trees of various kinds recently planted, and
the woodland is m >rc than sufficient for the purpos
es of the farm I lie vvhoh is unclosed with juni
per fencing. Its convenience to the Steamboats in
daily coinuiunk ition with Baltimore, is a conside
ration which will always muke its value apprcci
ated.
The Trustee is authorized by the creditor to
say, that only One Thousand Dollars will be re
quired in cash on the debt,and that a liberal credit
for the ha la nee of the debt will be given by being
secured by a deed on the land.
