E. \\ . JOHNSON. Lewisburg, Conway county, July it!, I836.-15-tf THE TOWN OF 1 S situated in Crawford county, on tne left bank ot the I Arkansas river, about five hundred and fifty miles from tin* Mississippi, by the course of the river,and a few miles below the Indian boundary line. 1 he immediate situa tion is picturesque and pleasing to the eye, easily ap j preach ibic by the roads, unusually elevated for a posi tion on the margin of the river—indeed, a portion of the Itownsite is a high and commanding eminence with an I abundant and never-failing supply of the most palatable and the purest water. Hteam-boat navigation to this point, and for some distance above, is as rate ami a - cure a- our river alb'i'tU; I' 1 v\i aision to oi:\ p.e ‘t '-i-liii above is precarious, uncertain and not to be relied on. Van Huron lias more extensive regions of hack coun try to support it, beyond all shadow of competition, than any other point or plain' on this river, or in the i errito rv’ known to the writer. Tne contiguous settlements o) Leo’s creek and Erog Bayou have here their trade. The large, populous and agricultural county of Washington, in this Territory, must resort to Van Huron as the point of embarkation for her produce, and must seek her sup ply of essential articles from the same quarter; with equal truth, mid with equal positiveness, may the same remarks be made ot south-western Missouri, so rapidly advancing in numbers, in means and in wants. 1 o add another weighty item in the list of advantages, the pro jected Tnitud States road, now in train of execution, from Jackson, in Lawrence comity, by the county seat of Izard and 'A ashingtou, crosses the Arkansas river at Van Buren. The proprietor invites the merchant, the mechanic, the capitalist generally, and all persons ot ontorprize and en ergy of character, to make investments in this town, con scious that they will i.i ,vt. with 111 early and adequate requital tor amount advanced or exertion applied. ('he undersigned, being the sole proprietor of this town —the contract heretofore existing between him and t ie lute (ion. Win. Montgomery having been rescinded, and j all disputes as to title from that and all other quarters fully adjusted and annulled -is now ready to dispose of; lots, and give in lisputable tiilcs. Gentlemen wishing to iuvest money, or to locate,in a-j thriving new town, will do well to examine the superior! natural advantages and plats ol \ an Buren, where lots are oifered, at private sale, on very moderate terms, and on accommodating credits—and a reduction in price will j be made to those making immediate improvements on their purchases.

They have completed their large and commodious warehouses, and are now ready to receive and forward all goods, produce, tVc that may be consigned to them for reshipment. All business entrusted to them will be punctually, and what is of more importance, speedily attended to. They have no interest in any steamboat whatever, and rely only on 1 the faithful discharge of their business for patronage and favor. Persons ascending the Arkansas, will findthe passage through the mouth of Arkansas equally as good at all times, ami better at some, than through the cut oil'—as boats often pass down the former, when the depth of wa ter does not admit a passage throu the latter. They will also transact Commission Business of eve ry kind which, m^y be entrusted to thsm—buying up country produce on the river, Are. Having recently been informed that rnisrepresenta ions are afloat as to the practicability of traveling from the Post of Arkansas to this place, by land, on account of water and other obstructions, we feel it a duty we owe ourselves and a traveling community, to state, that a good road is now open, and, with very slight excep tions, on a direct and dry route, from this place to the Post, and only about 27 miles distant. *.j.*If unremitting care and attention will merit it. they trust to receive a share of public patronage.
