LOTS FOR SALE--In the beautiful town of MARTINES, at very reasonable rates, the climate is good, the back country is not to be surpassed by any in California, and to families, who will become residents and build, lots will be given gratis. A good substantial wharf is now in progress, which when finished, will give rise to an almost constant communication with Sacramento, San Francisco, and Vallejo. Persons who desire to live quietly and economically, would do well to visit this place. A forty-horse power ferry boat plies daily between Benicia and Martines, affording great accommodation to travellers journeying on to the northern part of the State. The title is an old Spanish grant, and is indisputable. This, combined with the flourishing back country, and the large number of highly cultivated farms in its immediate vicinity, cannot fail to attract the attention of agriculturists and others. Persons wishing to purchase lots on land, can apply to Mr. M. SMITH, at Howard & Green's, San Francisco, or to BROWN & DANA, at Martines.

GREAT REAL ESTATE RAFFLE Richardson's Albion Ranche, 100,000 Acres Agricultural and Timber Lands! Lying forty miles north of Bodega, on the coast -- is divided from a sworn survey by James S. Thornton, Esq.--to be decided on the 26th September--the prizes, with warrantee deeds, to be distributed by gentlemen from Sacramento City, Stockton, and San Francisco.
The whole tract of Land is thoroughly intersected by running streams, which in October last and in November, before the rains, were running full and strong. The banks of the rivers are never overflown by freshets. The soil, throughout the whole extent of this Ranche, is uniformly fertile, and is superior for agricultural purposes; does not bake into a hard crust, as is the case in most part of the country. It also retains moisture throughout the dry season, as is easily proved by inspection of the herbage, which is immense and green all the year round.
There is game of all kinds in abundance, elk being the most numerous, running in hers of 500 to 1,000. Ducks, geese and wild pigeons in vast numbers.
The rivers and creeks are well stocked with fish. Salmon commence running in October, and are taken in great numbers by the Indians.
Salt is procured at Salt Point, and Indian labor easily obtained. The following is a (partial) list of
| 1 | 1015 acres | 17 | 758 acres | 33 | 538 acres |
| 2 | 1010 acres | 18 | 747 acres | 34 | 534 acres |
