THAT THE TOWN OF ALABAMA, Is established at the siteTen-Milc-Bluff, on the East side of Alabama River, where a variety of TOWN LOTS ffill be exposed to public sale on the 3d Monday in October next. *rtIIE site ol the town is high and com-' manding, and supposed to he 'one hundred feet above the level of the water in the river opposite to the town, and is entirely removed from swamps, lagunes rnd morasses. In addition to this, the purity ol the water, the salubrity of the 1 iir,and the contiguity of a Mineral Spring 1 to the Town Spring, will ensure to its inhabitants the most perfect health. In point of commercial advantages, this town cannot be surpassed, as itstamls at the nearest eligible site to the head of , navigation on the Alabama river, and is only ten miles by land to the junction of the Coosa and Talapoosa rivers. The fertility of the surrounding coun try has bean tested during the present sales, where the AJabama bottoms have averaged jsso pei acre, and the hickory • lands in the immediate neighbour hood of the town, have sold from ten to 14 dollars per acre. These last lands have long been pronounced by the late Agent colonel Hawkins, to be the best body of * up land in the Creek cession, and in fact the town concentrates all the good lands embraced in the present sales. The immense capital concentrated in and contiguous to the town, is the surest pledge that can be given of its success to 1 die various classes in society, who may [ teel disposed to purchase lots, i John Soott, Milledgeville, Ga. 1 James Manning, Madison, M.T. c WaddyTate, do. do. *3.- )> Thomas Bibb, do. do. ) S •r A.
