A REMEDY FoThARD TIMES, A Ttare opportunity in the Best Market, and Moat Daligbtiul and Healthful Climate in the Unloj, Only Thirty Miles South of Philadelphia, on a Railroad, being a Rich, Heavy Soil, and a Highly Productiv Wheat Land, Among the Best in the Garden RUto of New Jer8v It flonilxta of 20.000 acres of srnod lnnd. divided Into farn a of different nisei to suit the rmrctusor from 20 soros and upwards and is sold at the rote of from Vis to 2U per acre ror me rnrm lnna payable one-fourth eash-and he balance byquarter-yearly instalment, with legal interest, wlihin the term of four yours. THE SOIL K In great part, a UickV Clay Loam, suitable for Wheat, Grass and Potatoes also a dark and rich sandy loam, suitable foroorn sweet potatoes, to-baooo, all kinds of vegetables and root crops, and the finest varieties of fruit, such as Qrapes, Pears, reaches, Apricots, nectarines, oiaoKoerries, nioions and other fruits, best adapted to the Philadelphia and New York markets. In respect to the soil and crops there can bo no mistake, as visitors can examine both, and none are expected to buy before ao doing: and finding these statements correct under these oiroumatancoi, unless there statements were eorreot, there would be no use in their being mudo. It is considered THE BEST FRUIT SOIL IN TITE UNION. flee Reports of Solon Robinson, Esq ., of the N. V. Tribune, and the well-known agriculturist, Wm Parry of Cln.,aminjon, New Jersey, wbioh will be furnished Inquirers. TIIE MARKET. By looking over a map the reader wilt perceive that it enjoys the best narket in the Union, and has direct communication with New York and Philadelphia twice a day, being only thirty-two miles from the latter. Produce in this market brings double the price that it does in locations distant from the cities. In this location It can be put into market the same morning it is 'gathered, hnd for what .the farmer sells he gets the highest price; whilst groceries and other articles he purchases he gets at the lowest price. In the West, what ho sells brings him a pittance, bnt for what ho buys he pays two prices. In locating hero the I ottler'has many othor advantages. He is within a i whours by railroad, of all the greatoities of New h dgland and the Middle States. He is near his old friends and assooia ions. He has school for bis children, divine service, and all the advantages of oivilitation, and he is nenralnrge eity. THE CLIMATE Is delightful: the winters being salubrious and open, whilst the summers are no warmer than in the North. The location is upon the line of latitude with Northern Virginia. Persons wanting a chango of climate for health, would be much benefitted in Ylneland. The mild-n'oss of the climato and its braoinginfluenoe.makes it excellent for all pulmonary affections, dyspepsia, or goneral debility. Visitors will notice a difference in a few days. Chills and fevers -re unknown. CONVENIENCES AT HAND. Building material Is plenty. Fish and oysters are plentiful and cheap. Visitors must expect however to see a newplnee. WHY THE PROPERTY HAS NOT BEEN SET-TI ED BEFORE. This question the reader naturally asks. It is because it has been held in large traots by families not disposed to sell, and being witho it railroad facilities thoy had few inducements, The railroad has just boon opened through the property this season for the first timo. Visitors areBhown over the land in n earriag, free of expenso, an afforded time and opportunity for thorough investigation. Those who r.ome with a view to settle, should bring money to secure their purchases, as locations are not held upon refusal. The safest thing in hard tlmes,where people have been thrown nut of employment or business, and possess some little means or small incomes,is to start themselves a home. They can buy a pieoe of land at a small price, and earn more than wages in improving it; and when it is done it is a certain independence and no loss. A fow acres in fruit trees will insure a comfortable living. The land is put down to hard time prices, and all improvements can be made at a cheaper rate than most any othor time. The whole tract with six miles front on the rail road, is being laid out with fine and spacious avenues with a tovn in the centre five acre lots in the town sell at from $150 to $"200; two and-a-half acre lots at from $80 to $120, and town lots 60 feet Vont by lfO foetdeep; at $100 payablo one half cash and the balance within a year. It is only uon farms of twonty acros, or more, that four years' time is given. TO MANUFACTURERS, the town arTo ds a fine opening for the shoe manufacturing business, and other article, boing near Philadelphia, and the snrrouading country has a large population, which affords a good market. This settlement in thoenurse of a several years, will be one of the most, beautiful places in the country, and most agreeable tor a residonce. It is intended to make it a Vine and Fruit grow-. ing country, as this oultura is the most piontable . and the beat adapted to tho market Every advan-. tnge and convenience for settlers will be introduced which will insure the prosperitv of the place The hard times throughout the eountry will be an advantage to the settlement, as it oompols people to resort to agriculture for a living. Large numbers of people are purchasing, and peo pie who desire the best location should visit the place at onoe. Improved land isalsoforsale. TIMBER Land can be bought either with or without timber. The Timber at market valuation. The Title is Indisputable. Warrantee Deeds Riven, clear of all laoumbranoe, when the money is paid. Boarding oonvenlonoes athand.

OF THE NEW tORK TRIBUNE, rroft thi VINELAND SETTLEMENT tSTTho following Is an extract from the report of Solon Robinson, Esq., published in the New York Tribune, It reference to Vineland. All persons ean read this report with interest. Advantages of Fat ming near Home Vine-land Remarks upon Marl Soil, its great Fertility The Cause of Fertility Amoini of Crops Produced Practical Evidence, It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant ftrmint that we know of this side of the western prairies. We found soms of the oldest farms apparently lust as profitably productive as when first oleared of forest fifty er a hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover the eause ofJ this continue tertuity. i ne wools eountry is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of oalcareous substanoes, generally in the form of Indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertiary formation: and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exaeteonditlon moat easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to oultlvate. Marl in all its forms, has teen used to fertilise crops in England, from the time it was occupied by the Romans; and in France and Germany a marl bed is eountedon as a valuable bed of manure,that wn be dug and carted and spread over the field. How much more valuable then it must be, when found already mixed through the soil where new particles will be turned up and exposed, and trans, orm d to the owners use every time he stirs Ite artb.e Having lata satisfied oar a ndi of the eauss,they will not be excited'wlth wonder at seolng Indubitable evidenoe of fertility in a soil which in other situations, having the same general characteristics or at least appoarunces, is entirely unremunerative except as its produotivoneas is promoted by artificial fertilisation. A few words about the quality and value of this land for cultivation, of which we have strong proof. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Franklin township, Gloacoster oounty; who purchased some eight miles north of Millville, about three years ago, for the purpose of establishing a steam mill to work up the tim- er Into lumbar, to send off by the new railroad, as well as firewood and ooal, for which he bu ilt a branch track a mile and a half long. He also furnished sixteen miles of the road with ties, and has no doubt made the mill profitable, though his main object was to open a farm, having become convinced that the soil was valua ble lor cultivation. In this he has not been disappointed, ao some of hisoropa prove. For Instance, last year, the aeoond time of cropping, 3011 bushels of potatoes os one aore, worth 60 oonts a bushel In the field. This year seven acres aitnout any manure prod need 354 bushels of oats. In one field. the first crop was potatoes planted among the rnnti and yielded 75 bushels. The notatoes were dn. and wheat sowd, and yielded 18 bushels; and the stubhle turned and sown to buckwheat, which yield ed 33 bushels; and then the ground was sown to olover and timothy, wbioh gareas a first orop 2)4 mjiid per win. The furt'.lisers applied to these orops; were first, sues iruw tiiuHmigs; socona peunds super, phosphate of lime; third 100 pounds Peruvian mi. ano; then 50 bushels of slaked lime has been spread npon the clover since it was mowed, and turned in lor wnoni. Mr- Wilson's growing orons. and the wheat. tnh. ble of the present season, all indicate his land as oeing prouuciive as any part ol the state. At K fary Barrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer, several miles south of Mr. Wilson's, we u parucuiarij sirucK witn tne one appearance of a field of osrn, that we stonned to inmiir of a hired man how it waa produced. We found that the lane had been the year but one before in wheat, sown with clover, and thiacut one season, aim last spring piowca once witn 'one poor old nag and planted with oorn. It es, '.ut you manured high, we suppose? we said interrogatively, and got thia reply Waal, you see, we couldn't a done that, because we hadn't but forty one-horse loadj altogether, for 28 acres, and we wanted the moat on it for the trues." Tho truck consisted of boets.carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, melons. Ac. and averv nrmlnnHva nnfoh it Lima Beans, grown for marketing. So we were wtisnea mat tne soil was not infertile, even unaided by clover, which had fed the corn, because the truck patoh had not been clovered,and bad been in cultivation long enough to obliterate all signs of the forest- Our next visit was to the farm of Andrew Sharp five miles north of Millville, from half to a mile east of the railroad, and just about in the centre of Vineland. Mr. Sharp oommenood work here in Deoember, 1858, upon 2T0 acros. In less than thrnn years ho has i-ot 234 acres cleared and in orops this season, all well inclosed and divided into several Holds, with codar rail or polefence; has built a two story dwelling, about 3d by 40 foot, and a smaller house for farm laborers, and a stable or granary and some other outbuildings. Considerable part of the land was cleared for the plow at $9 per acre, and on some of it the first crop wasbackwheat, limed with 50 bushels in powder per acre. This orop maj be put in July 4th to 20th ana yioius zu 'o u bushels per acre, narvostcd in November; when the land being sowed with 150 lbs of Peruvian guano and seeded with rye.yiolded 12 to 15 bushels per acre and $10 worth of straw The rye stubble turned, after knocking off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with an nuo and seoded to whoat, gave 15 te 1ft bushels. 1 Do orop which be was threshing while we were mere promisos more, ol a very plump grain, and the straw is verv heavy. We wont over the stubblo, and found the clover and timothy from seed sowed last spring, on the wneuc wunouc narrowing, looking as well as we ever saw it Uiwn any old cultivated farm, and with a little work none in the winter to clear off some roots md rotten stumps, and setting stakes to mark permanent ones, he will be able to cut thecrop the next year with a mowing machine, and we will guarantee two tons per aore, if he will give the over plus if it overruns the estimate. Part of the land was planted with potatoes for a first orop, which yielded 120 bushels per acre. It was then limed with 50 bushe per aero, and seeded with wheat and clover, yielding an average bf over louusutus per acre, ana tne oiover now looks beautiful. Other portions have been planted with corn as a first crop, which yielded 30 bushels of vollow flint. corn, ana tae secona crop ,oriy Dusneis, ana the third crop, treated 150 jbs of guano, we are sure no one would estimote beluw 40 bushels nor nnm The reader will reoolleot that tho writor is now speaking of land eniiroly now, and which can scarcoly be considered Ingoodarublo condition. In other oases the corn eron of last vear was fnl. lowed with oats this season, not yot thrashed, but win average pr oaoiy 40 to oil nushels. sweet potatoes, beans, melonsand in fact all garden vegetables, as woll as young poach and othor fruit trees planted thia yoar show very plaii.ly that this long legiocieu tract oi lana saouia remain so no iongor, and there is now a strong probability that it will not; foi under the auspices of Mr. Landis.it will be dividod into small lots, with roads located to accommodate all the surveyor is now busy at this work, .and all purchasers will be required to build neat comfortable houses, and either fence their lots in uniformity, or agree to live without fence, wmcD woum db preieraoie, oy woion means a good population will be secured, who will establish churches, schools, stores mills, meshanio shops and homes homes of American farmers, surrounded by gardens, orchards, Holds and oomforts ef oivil iied life.

Ia view of this fact and of the responsibility which in consequence of it will attach to each Regimental District It is but just to require that each regiment be raised within its own territory. Recruiting officers for any of the foregoing regimenta are therefore forbidden to enlist men from without their proper districts, un less specially authorized by order from these Head Quarters. Enlistments made in viola ¬ tion ol this rule will subject tbe recruiting officer to be dismissed and the enlisted men to be transferred . By ordor. CHARLES W. DILL. Adjutant General Situation of Vicksburg; Vickbbun? is s tuated on the eastern bank of the Mississippi, nod on a bigh elevation, which, not being of a bluffy or a abi upt asceni.but gradual and sluping.leaves the city thus elevated some distance from the river. This slope has been graduated t d macadamized into i wharf immediate', ly in front of the city; but above and below the wlurf the ascent becomes rougher, until tbe ridges or bluffs strike the river and rise abruptly from the edge of the water. The bluua immediately above tbe city are "Walnut Hills." aud those below the city and between it and the Big Bayou are la miliarly known as"ierrill's bluffs " About ten miles, by river, south from Vicksburg, is a little town called Warrenton, lying al o some distance, perhaps a mile, from llie Mississippi. Big Bayou is a stream ol con-sidemblu dimensions, which ente s the MisMasippi about three miles above Warrenton Rod seven from Vicksbur . The main stream of the Big Bayou runs nearly duo west foi seven or eight miles, bu t lere is another branch of it which rises lo the rear of Vickebuig, and runs five miles almost parallel with tbe Mississippi, at about the distance ot i.bree miles, until V n.iw ,nio the bayou two miles and a half Irom tho river. From Vicksburg to War tntou there is a road which lohows the cou.be of the river, and which is on the summit oi tbe bluffs which rises below the city Ii crosses the Lig Bayou near the mourn of the branch described as rising near Vicks burg. Two mile and a l all below the city, and between the road and ti.e river, is the race course, and three miles from there, down the river, is i he residence oi a Mr, Ttrriil.whose plantation, ct immense porportions, irunta on the river for miles in tuc , from near Vicksburg lo Big Bayou.Tbeso are tho distinguishing points of the position. The summits oi the blu.rs below the city aie level and thickly cover ed with forests and undergrowth. The country is txceedmglv feme and produc tive. The bluffs are, in all probability, not less tl.an one hundred ieet above the river "Walnut HiliV' above the city, are ol tbe tame character as "Terrili's Bluffs," and admirablo for defence against iuubo.it up proach. It has been proven, nd it is L'tnerallv known tbat the gunboats can set dom act effectively against batteries cn a bluff, as the former are s built that tbe desired elovatiOLR are not to be obtained, while tbe bluff' butteries have an advantage; in the fact that weak parts of the gunboats are exposed. The Vicksburg Cut-off. Probably the cut-off at Vicksburgh ia a work oi even less dificulty than we suppoeed when we wrote our paragraph of vesterday in relation to i t. The strange course of the river at this place may be judgod of from the lac, tbat tbe cut-off would have to be only half a mile in length, and yet would commence six miles above Vicksburg and terminate three miles below that city. The citr- tsena as we have stated, have for yeari dread ed lest the river should of itself force its way brough leaving thir city miles iilaad, and thave resorted to all torts of expedients to avert the apparently impending 'ate.

How a Disoharg d Soldier oan Get Ilia Pay. Columbus Correspondence Cincinnati Qarette. Reliable data lave been placed in mv possession, from wb'ch I am enabled to state all the routine it is necessary : ror a soldier to pass through from tbe time be becomes a fit subject for discbarge until he receives bit money. I Under the late General Order No 60, all soldbrs re required to report at Camp Chape for examination transport ation being furnished upon application to Quarter Master Gene al ii. a. Wright Should the Post General pronounce a soldier unfit for further service, be will be pro viiled with duplicate certificates of disability. These are to be taken to Captain Al bert Dod, who has hia office in the ci y ann h will make out a discharge. If the Optain is furcished with a descriptive roll, giving the time of enlistment; the amount of clothing drawn, and the time when last paid, the final statement will be immediate ly made out. Furnished with these and his discharge, the soldier will then go to Major Howard, U. S. Paymaster, who will pay the amount to which he is entitled. But shouid the soldier not be provided with the descriptive roll, he is n-'verthless discharged; but Captain Dod sends to the company commander an ordor. under au Ihority of the Sccr lary of War, to urnish, without delay, the necessary facts. When they are received, the final statement, in duplica e, is made out and forwarded to the soldier, who in the meantime can return borne. When received by the soldier, tbe statement, with the discharge, is sent (o Major Howard, ho nu kes the e from the p;iy aco unt in duplicate, which be sends for the signature of tno sold'er. When 'hese are returned to the Mnj r, the money ia at once remitted, with the discharge If, at the time of bis discharge, the soldier is e mpelled to wa t for the reception of the descriptive roll before he can receive bis pay, and wou'd like to re turn borne, but has not the means to do so, he will be provided with traneportion, on application to Quarter Master Gen. Wright, which will be indorsed on the dischrrge. By the above it will be Been of how little advantage these "claim agents" really are to the soldier. ,Ey one process it will cost the latter from two to five dollars, and by th" o'.her only a few cents for the postage," but with this advantage, he will receive liis py much sooner. If the papers of the State would only give circulation to some of the above the fads, the "fees" of these men may become less numerou". OCCASSIONAL. McClellan's Seige Guns-Tho Wounded of his Army, A correspondent of ihe Philadelphia Press writes from Fortress Monroe, July 6th First as to the sie- e guns. I nevei saw, and never saw any one who did tee, any other siege g ins in the armv of the Potomac than eight or ten long 80-pound Parrots. These were mounted in ha'tery on the extreme right of the army, and bIi day Friday, June 27, did spln id wrk in shelling the rebel-i across tbe Chichom-iny. Th'?e gum were a l saved. I saw the vhole of thm late on Sunday after noon, five miks across the White Oak Swamp nridge, on the ground which the enemy did not hold for forty -eight hour? afierwiirds. They wre rapidly proceeding towards the James Kiver. Your readers may rel y upon the safety of these guns. "Then as to the wonntled relatives of people in the North. Every battle field and hospital which was formed for the reception of ils wounded during tho retre'af, is in the posession of the enemy. If a sol dier waa killed, his body lies on rebel ground. If be was wounded in such a way that he cou.a not waie, tut re oeing no ambulances to remove any wounded men he of course fell in the hand3 or the enemy. If ho wore wounded si tbat he could walk, without hjlp, or by the aid of a crutch, or by leaning on a friands shoulder, even though his weakni'ss rrmpelled him to rest at every half mile. hi3 ea!ety may be relied upon. Tbe army, in aggregate, marched very slowly, but ten milt s in twenty-four hours, and these wounded men came straggling to the hospital boa's at Harrisou's house during all my etny thpre, and no doubt they are straggling still. From the nature of the wound the sarety of tbe m n can be a6cer tained. As to well men, the mails will soonbe opei cd, and they of course, at the first oppnrtuniiy. will bring home letters telling their wherebouts. "Every regiment in the army, with scarcely an exception, was ngaged in one or another of the weeks bnttlv?, and all did bravely; Tho troops have tho most rerfect confidence in thuir Generals, and they a'l deserve it; for a braver set of officers never commanded an army. The men almost worship McClellan. and would do even imposibilities if he commanded Tns Seventh Onto Keipino the Fourth.
