We would respect fully give notice to all those who may wish to avail themselves of the very liberal terms and conditions now offered by the company 10 settlers on their grant that we have despatched an nelligentand competent agent to the colony to reside therein who will al all times, be prepared, without the least delay 10 receive and settle to their satislaction all who shall go into the colony.

For the information of those unacquainted with the inducements and advantages of settling in our colony, we would represent that the settlement now contains about six hundred families and late advces from there show that large numbers are going n which must insure the entire settlement of the grant and Tn short time render the lands of the emgrants very valuable. Our grant lies in the counties oi fannln, Nacogdoches, Milan, and Robertson extend ing l64 miles on Red river, thence to the beginning on Red river 100 miles, and contains for ifs emen- slons perhaps the largest body of inc richest and most fertile lands of any portion of Texas North America The lands are pretty equally divided between woodland and prairie, with gently undu- atng surface, and is intespersed with rivers rivu- lets, and fine springs which afford, at all seasons o the year. superabundance Of the purest and most wholesome water The forest trees consist prnci- pally of white, post and Spanish oak pecan, cotton. wood, ash, elm, black walnut, and holly, afordine an abundant supply of timber for fuel, building, and all agricultural purposes This portion of Tex as IS considered the finest grain growing country ir the world, and has ah ample range of nuiricious pastorage and every facility for rearing cattle at thC cheapest rates. The extensive river bottoms ant beautiful praires not surpassed by any lands of this continent for richness and fertility and will pro- duce as abundanty, and with little labor to the cutyator, all the great staple articles grown within the United States, such the finest cotton, tobacco oats, wheat, rye, barley, indian corn potatoes and grass together with all other productions of the soil.

Martin, Owen, & Co.,, No To- Tehoupitouas street, Mir. Edward Ha of the Fexian consulate, No. g.
