TION nn Apalachicola river, Jackson county,
West Florida, containing upwards of 1000 Acres
of Land ; and also fitly or sixty NEGROES with
it, if desired. The land lies directly on the margin
of the river, nearly three miles in length, of first rate
cane-break quality, six hundred acres of which arc
well suited to the culture of the sugar cane. Its fer
tility is unsurpassed by any land in Florida. Its lati
tude is only 30 minutes North of New-Orleans, which
renders it favorable to the sugar cane,growth, which
is also protected by the spray and fogs from the river,
us watt manifested by la>l tail’s experiment.
Oil the premises is a Sugar House, 40 by 180 feet*
with a first rate Sug .r Mill, worked by u steam en
gine of IS lior®« power, calculated to grind cane
enough in *24 hours lo make I5cwt of sugar: also, a
large set of kettles, that will make from (> to 9000
lbs. of sugar in 24 hours, with an extra battery, as
well as all ibe necessary fixtures for the manufacture of
sugar, and a cane carrier, that convey s the cane to the
mill from the outside of the house. 'The fuel for sup
plying the furnaces is convenient and iiiexaustible.
The .sugar house is within 50 feet of the river, so that
every facility is at hand of shipping the produce to
the towns and villages on the Chattahoochee river,
as well as the Atlantic .Stales, by the way of the Ap
alachicola Hay,
Tlie residence is about one mile from the river, on
a beautiful and elevated situation that will command
a view of the river for two miles. 'The dwelling
bouse is a well constructed two story, airy and com
modious building, (ill feet in length, with a passage
15 feet, a portico and balcony, and six fire places,
nearly ready to be occupied, a large framed Kitchen,
&c with all useful and convenient buildings.
There is near the house, a bold and never failing
spring of w ater. Connected with, and near the resi
dence, are many means of comfort and utility. a9
pencil orchards, a good garden, viney ards, grist mill,
with iron running gear, dec.

That man must lead n happy life,
Who’s free from matrimonial chains,
Who is directed by a wife,
la sure to suffer for hia pains.
Adam could find no solid peace,
When Eve was given for a mate,
Until he saw a woman’s fucc,
Adam was in a happy state.
In all the female face appear,
Hypocrisy, deceit and pride^
'Truth, durling of a heart sincere,
Ne’er known in woman to reside.
What tongue is able to unfold,
'The falsehoods that in woman dwell;
The worth in woman wo behold.
Is almost imperceptible.
Cursed be the foolish man I say,
Who changes from his singleness ;
Who will not yield to womaii’s sway
Is sure of potted blessedness.

A Yankee Story.
FROM * A WEEK AT THE FIRE ISLANDS."
* What an infernal lie!’ growled Daniel.
•Have my doubts ;’ suggested the somnolent
Peter Prnhasco, with all the solemnity ol a man
who knows bis situation; at the same lime soak*
ing bis bead and spilling his liquor.
* Ha ! ha ! ha ! Ha ! ha ! ha !’ roared all the test
of the boys together.
* Is be done ?* asked Raynor Rock.
‘How many shirks was there! cried Long John,
putting in his unusual lingual oar,
* That story puts me in mind, 1 said Venus Ray
nor, * about wbal I’ve (jeered tell on Kbenczer
Smith, at the time lie weut down to the north
pole on a widen* voyage.'
* Now look out lor a screamer,' laughed out
Raynor tvor.x, refilling his pipe. ‘Stand by, Air.
Cypress, to let the sheet go.'
* Is there any tiling uncommon about that yarn,
Venus ?’
* Oucommon ! well, I expect it’.s putty smart
and uncommon for a man lo go to sea with a
bear, all alone, on a bare cake of icc. Captiog
Smith'* woman used to say she couldn’t hear to
think on't.'
* Tell us the whole of that, Venus.'said Ned ;
—‘that is, if it is true. Mine was—the whole of
it,—although Peter has his doubts.’
* 1 can’t tell if as well as Zoph can, but I’ve no
'jections to tell it my way. no how. So, here
goes—that’s great brandy, Air. Cypress.' There
was a gurgling sound of * something-tu-take,’ run
ning.
* Well, they was down into Ruffin's Ray, or
some other o' them cold Norwegen bays at tlie
North, where the rain freezes as it comes down,
and stands up in the air, on winter mornens, like
great mountain* o' ice, all in streaks. Well, the
schooner was layen at anchor, ami all the bauds
was out into the small boats, lookio for wales ; —
all except the capting, who said he wa'n't very
well that day. Well, he was xvalkau op and
down, on deck, smokeri and (iiinkcn, ] expect,
mostly, when all of a sudden he reckoned he see
one o' them big white bears—polar bears, you
know—big as thunder—with long teeth. He
reckoned be see one on 'em sclurnpen along on a
great cake o’ ice, that lay on the leeward side of
the bay, up agin tlie bank. The old cap warned
to kill one o'theui varmints most wonderful, but
Im never lucked to get a chance. Now tho,’ be
thought, the tune bad come for him to walk into one
on 'em at last, and fix his mutton for him right.—
So lie run lorrnrd and lav hold onto a small skiff,
that was layen near the lorc'stal, and run her out
and launched her. Then he ink a drink, nnd—
here’s luck—and put in a still*load of powder, a
couple of balls, and jumped ir., and pulled away
for the b’C.
* It wa'n’t long before be got 'cross the Iny, for
it was a inrrer piece o' water—not more than haul
a mile wide—and then be got on the ice. It was a
smart and large cake, and the bear was ’way down
lo the totber eend on it, by the edge o' the water.
{So, be walked first strut along, and then when be
got patty eloast, be walked 'round cntccorned like,
— likes’s if be was drivjn for a plain plover—so
that the bear wouldn’t think lie was comen alter
him ; and be dragged himself along on bis bands
and knees, low down, mostly. Well, the bear
didn't seem to mind him none, and lie got op
within about fifty yards on him, and then be look
ed .so savage and big—the bear did—that the cap-
ting stopped, and rested on bis knees, and put op
| bis gun, and be was a gnin to sbool. Rut just
then the bear turned round and Miuffcri up the
capting—just as one of Infs bounds snuffs up
an old buck. Mr. Cypress—and begun lo walk to-
! wards him, slowly like, lie come along, the cap
ting said, clump, dump, very slow, and made the
ice b' lid and crack agin under him, so that the
' water come up and putty much kivered it all over.
' Well, there tlie capting was all the time squat on
his knees, with Ins gun pinted, waitin for the var
mint to come ui), and bis knees and legs was must
mighty cold by means of tho water that tlie bear
riz on die ice, as I was mentioned* At last the
hear seemed to make up bis mind lo see bow the
capting would taste, and so he left off walked slow,
and started off on a smart and switt trot, right to
wards the old man, with bis mouth wide open,
roariii and bis tail stickeii out stiff. The capting
kept still, looken out al! the time putty sharp, I
should say, till the beast got within about ten
yards on him, and then be let him have it. He
j aimed right at the fleshy part of bis heart, but the
bear dodged at ih•* flash, and rared up. and the
j balls went into bis two hind legs, jist by tlie jynf.
one into each, and broke the thigh bones smack
j olf, so that he went light down aft, on the ice,
I thump, on bis bind quarters, with noilien standeu
I but bis fore legs and bis bead nz up. a growlin at
the capting. When the old man see him down,
and breaks atl around the capting aind the bear,
downjo the water's edge, and the wind jist then
a shiften, and Comen off shore, away they floated
on a cake of ice about ten by six, off to sea, with
out the darned a biscuit, or a quart o' liquor to
stand 'em on the cruise ! There they not, tne bear
and the capting, jest so near that when they both
readied forranls, they could jest about touch nos
es, and nother one not able to move any part
on him, only excepten his up'ptt part and fore
paws.*
* By jolly ! that was father a critical predica
ment, Venus,' cried Ned, buttoning his coat. * t
should have thought'that the captain's note and
ears and hands would haVe been froften too.'
•That's quite naytr’l to suppose, sir, but you
see the bear kept him warm in the upper parts, by
hein so eloast to him, and hreathen hard and hot
on the obi man whenever be growled at him.—
Them polar bears is wonderful hardy animals, and
has a monstrous deal o’ heat into 'em, by means of
theirbein able to stand such cold climates. 1 ex

ever he felt chilly, lie jest ink his ramrod, and stir
red up the old rascal, and made him roar nnd
squeal, and then the hot breath would come pour*
en out all over the capting. and made the air quite
modcrut and pleasant.'
* Well, go on, Venus. Take another horn
first/
* Well, there an't much more on’t. Off tliey
went to sea, and sometimes the wind drov 'em
nothe, and then agin it druv 'em sonlhe, hut they
went southe mostly ; and so it went on, until they
were out about three weeks. Hu at last, one after
noon'*———
* Rut Venus, slop: tell us, in the name of won
der, bow did tlie captain contrive to support life all
this time?'
1 Why. sir, to be sure, it was a hard kind o* life
to support, hut a hardy man will get used to al
most*—
•No, no: what did he eat? what did he feed
•O—O—I’d like to've skipped that ere.—Why,
sir. I’ve heard different accounts as to that. Uo
cle Obe Verity told nie, ho reckoned tho cap
ting cut off one of the bear’s paws, when be lay
stretched out asleep, one day, with his jack-knife,
and sucked that tor fudder, and they say there’s
a smart deal o'noinishtnenf in a white bear's foot.
Rut if 1 may he allowed to spend my 'pinion, I
should say my old mail's account is the Tightest,
and that’s—what's as follows. You see after
they' boon out three days ahouts, they begun to
grow kind o'hnngry. and then they got friendly,
for misery loves company, von know; and the
capting said (lie bear looked at him several rimes,
very sorryfnl, as much as to say, * capting what
the devil shall we do? Well nue day they was
sitten, looken at each other, with fears ready to
burst out o’their eyes, when all of a hurry, some
thin come flopped up out o' the water onto the
ice. The capting looked and see it was a seal.
The bear's eye* kindl' d tip as be looked at it.
ami then, the capting said he giv him the wink to
keep still there they sot. still as starch, till
ibe seal not thinken nothin o'tbcm no more nor
if they was dead, walked right up between 'em.
Then slump ! went down obi wbitev’s nails into
the fish’s flesh, and the capting run his jack-knife
into bis tender line. Tlie seal soon got bis bit
ters, and the captain cot a big bunk olf the tail
eend, and put it behind him, out o' the bmir's
reach, and then lie felt smart and coir, fort able,
lor lie bail stores enough for a long cruise, though
the bear could’t say so much for himself.
“ Well, tlie bear, by course, soon run out o’
provisions, and had lo pm himself onto short al
lowance ; and then be begun to show tiis nayty
ral temper, lie first stretched himself* out ns lar
as be could go, and trier! to hook the captain's

about a haul* o' pound o' seal and chucked it lo

▲6YICK FOR SINQLJC GENTLEMEN OF ▲ CERTAIN A•*.
In days of yore, before the march of mind «n4
the improvements in style and dress, which dis
tinguish the present happy age, old bachelors de
served no mercy unless they Came under the class
rf disappointed lovers* or proved to the satrsfiu*
lion of the world, “ they would if they could-* 1
But now, unless n man is born rich, he can't afford
to marry till he grows rich, in doing which lie ii
Very apt to grow old. Hence the number of ba
chelors is sore to increase with the progress of re
finement, which mainly consists in the inveptloo
or adoption of new modes of dress, oew fashion
ed furniture, and new ways of spending money.
Bachelors have, for these reasons, become of late
sufficiently numerous to constitute n class by
themselves, and to merit a code designed especial-*
ly for their use and government. At the sntn*
time we premise that, all tilings considered, we
are ot opinion, that since it is indecent for n mew
of any pretensions to get married until be can af
ford to live in a three-story house with mahogany
folding doors and marble mantle-pieces, he ought
not to be classed with old bachelors, till it can he
proved lie lias been five years neb enough for (lie
deed, or till lie is In By convicted of threescore*
when be must give in, ami take bis place in the
turps.
1. Bachelors, or more politely single gentle
men of a certain age, J>oghG never to marry any
but very young, sprightly bellqg, of the first fash-*
iori and pretensions. The tru£fhohdaiion of mu
tual affection is in the attraction Hot of affinity,
but of contrast. This contrast i&drfecG between
a gentleman of fifty nnd a lady^sixteen, and
nothing can come of such a union, but mutual
love, and perfect obedience on the part of thrt la
dy. who, ten to one, will look up to him as a father,
2. Single gentlemen Ot a certain ajje, who are
rich enough to afford a curricle, together with a
three story liousa with folding doors nnd inarblu
mantle-pieces, need not be under any apprehen
sions of being rejected by a young lady, brought
up as she ought lo be, with a proper insight into
the respective value of men and things. But they
should not be more than ten years making up
their minds, remembering the fowler, who was so
long taking aim that the bird flew away beforu he
drew the trigger.
3. .Single gentlemen of a certain age should ne
ver play a double part, or aport with the hearts of
inexperienced young Indies.
4- Single gentlemen of n certain age, should
beware of the widowers, who are always in a bur
ry. We have known a bachelor cut out by is
brisk widower, before be knew where he turns*
ft. Single gentlemen of a certain age should
never plead guilty lo a single ache or pain, ex
cept growing pains. They should never remem
ber any thing that happened more (ban Ten years
back. To lecollect past times, is a metam.holy
proof of old age.
0. Single gentlemen of a certain age should
never attempt a cotillion, or cm a caper, unless
they are sure of going through it. )f they am
once laughed nt in public, all is over with them.-
They had better be poor.
7. Single gentlemen of a certain tge should
never nvarry, unless they have proof positiva of
the disinterested alfeetion of the young lady. In
order to ascertain this, it would be well t* circu
late a rumor of great losses, or actual bankruptcy#
and pot down tlie equipage. Any lady—we mean
any young lady—ol Die real, liisbionable tor-
nure, that can stand Ibis, must have a heart like »
stone.
8. Single gentlemen of a certain age ought rtf-
ver to have more than two ladies in prospect at
onetime ; one for each eye, else they may chance
to lose both. The prerailing offence of bachelor*
is that of ill-bred pointers ; von cannot bring them
to a dead point, although they will bu popping theirr
noses everywhere.
9. Single gentlemen of a certain age, being al-
always young, should never keep company with
old people, for fear the old proverb about birds of
a feather, should be fired at their heads. They
should now nnd then commit a gentlemanly ex
cess, such as drinking six bottles nt a sitting, or
playing cards nil night, though it might be expe
dient not to appear in public till iI.t effect* are
gone ofl'. An old field is not so easily renovated
ns a new on*?.
10. Single gentlemen of a certain agr\ who ar«
j well to do in tlie world, ought to make the first ail

incertain; such gentlemen ought never to doceivo
