FO R SAL E, “ On Saturday the Ud of June nexty at X t'cloek, on the premifesy at Five Fathom Holey three miles below the City of Savannaby and on the f.'aid river, The greater Part of the Front of Lot No, £ in possession of the fubferiber, laid off lately by accurate lurvey into 20 wharf lots, each containing from 100 to 200 feet front, and from 19° to 370 feet'back from the natu ral bank of the river, (exclusive of 25 feet thoroughfare and lanes) with a good road from Savannah to the pre mises nearly completed. The fixations of these lots are well known, and considered at present increasing in value, as being at the head of navigation for all flapping drawing more than 12 feet water; they are likewise well fituateS for trade, building of stores for the reception of produce, and particularly adapted for carrying on the lumber bufL nefs; also capable of improvement at a small expence, the bank of the river running generally from 20 to 40 feet off thei channel, and fufficiently firm in its present state to admit of large vessels taking on board their cargoes without the aid of a wharf. Oiy foe premises there are now ti good wharf ioo feet front; and deep enough, wkh'pi ten feet of the head, for the largest vessels the.river will admit; also a dwellinghoufe, corn house, poultry house, and a garden; all under good fence, as described in the furv'ey. rhe intention of tbe fubferiber,- by allowing the great distance back from thp fiver, is to give fufficient fpaerr for carryingron business, ereaing of buildings, and making gardens, the foil being solid, remarkably rich, and known by experience to be good fax the purpose.
