na'll, on Little < fgcchee ; 130 or CO acres of the
above are priipi.tj.fnk and Hickory Land, the
greatest part of which is well timbered with
large White l/old; which at once declares land
to be good, especially as this is but ( Mom over

ed by summer freshes, which renders it supe
rior to in <st ol the river swamp ; the other
part is livelvJ’iTSe Land,’lntermixed with Hick
ory grubs, i?H|jwood and Buck-cyc, and so.ne
small Irani filter. t>, the whole having a good

land has ever been cub Luted, though 7 or 8
acres was cuf tftr.vu about 12 ve rs ago, and
has now grown up into a perfect wilderness.
There is an excellent mill seat on the above
land, fully sufficient lor a saw and grist mill,
and a very good range for stock in the neigh
borhood; which renders it an eligible situation
for a person wishing to settle a small planta

TIIE LIFE OF
Maj or-G cn. Jtimes Jackson
BY THOMAS U. I*. CHA R L T ON,
A citizen of Savannah.
With considerable labor an.! difficulty I have
collected materials which will enable me to
compute, in a few weeks, the life of u.nj- ,’-go
ner and James Jackson.
The character of this late distinguished ci
tizen, was always held in high cstiui .tion by
the republican interest of the United States ;
and even his enemies (if ah enmity is not now
buried in the grave) must acknowledge, that he
was a brave soldier, an incorruptible states
man, and aa honest man.
’1 he memoirs i am preparing for publica
tion will be the thus divided—
-Ist Period —W ill vkTi.il the revolutionary
services cf general Jackson, and, collaterally,
the services of many patriotic Georgians, from
1776, to the evacuation of Savannah, in 1782.
2d I‘ri i d —Will detail his political ami ci
vil pursuits, from 1782 to 1 loG. This division
of the memoirs will contain a history of the
Yazoo Specui .u ion in the state of Georgia,
from the commencement of the fraud to its sub
version, in 1796 ; aml will also embrace the
proceedings of the house of representatives
and the senate of the state of Georgia, and <.f
‘the house of representatives df the congress of
the United’States, in the year 1791, uu the
celebrated contested elect; in of general Antho
ny Wayne.
This work will be printed on an octavo page,’
and will probably contain .70 or 400 pages.
The price to subscribers, (as the expenses
of publication are at present estimated) will
be ft 30—one. dollar of which must be paid
at the time of subscribing.
As soon as 1000 subscribers shall have made
this advance, the'money and the inannseript
will be delivered to the publisher.
