The Russian government, anxious to finish Its Siberian railroad in the shortest possible time, has ordered large quantities of steel rails from an American company. The Chincsn Im perial Railroad, which is an extension of the Russian line into China, has placed an extensive order for rails and equipments in the I'nited States.

Fiutok ; Some years ago I took an idea that land was the safest investment that, a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or al! of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say, in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall haw- a fair chance to get a home at- a low price, and no one lias a chance of losing their m rnej', or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles from Macon, n city of some 50,000 or (10,000 people, amt is adapted to ir-aiket gardening, and for northern people who know how to work, it offers a fine opportunity lor a c- dony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, •water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place I know’ of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what 1 say. 1 would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what 1 say, I have also a farm of 50 acres near Barnesville for sale,on good terms. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms ot pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low’. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion of one or two parties for years, and have never been questioned and are as good as gold. S. B. BL RR, Sk, Barnesville, Ga.
