Each voSume will contain about one third left

prior to the organization of the Federal Govern
ment.
IN al! countries, the proceedings in the com
mencement of their governments, are 101 l in dark
ness and obfctirity, owing to a carelessness, m the
fuccecding generation, to preserve the public re
cords, and the attention of the nation,in theferuje
ages, being called off from their domestic concerns,
to «ngage in wars and conqucft. Of what infinite
value would the laws nf Alfred be, had they been
tranfmittsd to »ur days ? Time, that defiroys
every thiDg, enhances the value of well authenti
cate! public record*, and renders them almolt in
eflimable. It is hoped, that Americans will, there
fore, chearfully contribute their afliftancf in trans
mitting to pollerity the labours of their ancellors
—founders of the Columbian nation.

[ln introducing this celebrated work to the Gen

to give it a dress proportioned to its diflinguifhed

keen spared in the publication; and I flattermyfelf
that the work does not yield, cither in paper pr
print, to any *ns ever published in America
This edition has an advantage over some former
ones, as it contains by way of notes, the minor
production*of the author ; and, it has an advan
tage ov«r every other edition, ill the Poetical Efijfle,
which is prefixed to it, and which mull be ex
tremely gratifying to every lover of literature in

excellence of this road, the populous-
JL ness of the country through which it p.i(T
ej, with sundry other ndvantigi-s, which render
it so far preferabla to tlia Old Road through
Bristol, Brunfwisk, &c. long ago fiiggefted the
propriety of its becoming the Grand Tho
rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New York.
During the present year, a minute fiirrey-ofit
has been taken,and its superiority over the Old
Head, both in winter and summer, has been
clearly afcertained.—Thore are good bridges
over all the oth»r waters but the Delaware,
and here the eroding is performed with great
fafety and in less than half the time required at
the Trenton Ferry. The road is several miles
Jhortcr than the old road, but this is amongst
the leafl of its advantages, because daily expe
i ience proves to us. that dispatch as well as com
fort in travelling principally depend an, the
goodness of the road and 'he levelnefs of the
lountry, and, in these relpeits, the New RoaJ
is, beyond all compjrifon, tbebeft. It preferts
none of those rocky hills, which render the Old
Road so fatiguing between the Delaware and
Newatk. The foil, too, for the greater part, is
such as to produce but little mud in winter, and
very litile >lull ib summer, which circuinlUnce,
adqul to th« beauty of the country, and i enn-
Cderable proportion of (hade, must always ren
der travelling in the latter season peculiarly) a
grenble.

from Penny town through Hopewell, Millftope,
Bound-brook, Quibbietown and Plainfield to
Scotch Plain? to iodge. Tbt next morning it
Hops at Springfield to breakfaft, from whence
it goes through Newark and arrives at N«w-
York at noon.
From NEW-YORK it starts it 3 o'clock ia

at Philadelphia the next evening- Fqr ff»:s at

and to Michael Little, at his hotel, ao. 41,

Fare for paflcngers, Five Dollars.
Way passengers 6 Cents per Mile.
Each pafl'enger is allowed to take on I4lbs. of
baggage cirriage free ; but all other baggage,
tik?n on by a pafier.ger, will be charged at 4
cents per pound weight.
With refpe<sl to packages sent on without
paflengers, the proprietors prel'ume they have
adopted a regulation, which, though unknown
to other lines of Aager, they fhmk must meet
with general approbation, They pledge them
selves to make good every package on the fol
lowing conditions. The peri'on who delivers
tke package at the office shall fee it entered in
the stage-book, for which entry he shall pay 6
cents ; he will then fUte the value of the pack
age,and pay (exclusive of the .r.e per
cent, on the v.ilne, as infunnce, and forwbich
he will receive a res-eipt. Thus, for instance,
if he ellimares his package at one dollar, he u ill
pay onecebt. and if at one hundred r ollars, he
will pay one dollar insurance, and in like pro
portion for packages of any other value.
Very few perlons it is presumed, will dislike
this regulation } it will be optionab.le
with every one to avail himfelf of this security
or not. But the proprietors think it right to
state very explieitly, that they will be respon
sible for the fjfe delivery of no package, which
is not regularly eiuored.'and f. r winch an insur
ance receipt cannot be produced.
In the distribution of the route, the greatest
care has bren taken to fix on such places and ta
verns as always afford a goon accommodation
and entertainment for the paflengers at the moll
reafo. able rxes The stages are well equipped
furnilhed with fleet and lleadyhorfes, and com
mitted to the care of intelligent foUer ind obli
ging drivejs. , The proprietors themfelvet live
at the different towns and villages where the
ttages wilt stop, so that the conduct of the per
sons they emyl.-y is continually an objedf of their
attention They take care also to lee that the
paufengtrs are well provide 1 for and po'iuly
treated at the taverns, and that 110 fort of chica
nery or infolcuce is prafiifed upon thtrn ; iu
short, they luv e I'paredneithirpains niir expetice
to render the SWIFT-SUKE the very belt line
ol ftajes in America
The line has now run nearly a month,dur
ing which time a great number of gentlemen
"have gone through, both from Philadelphia and
tfew-York. Evtry patenter has found che
road tofurpafe very far ail ihat has beci fajtl of
its eAcellence ;and the Proprietors of the Swift
Sure are extrimdy happy to hear the behaviou,
of their drivers, and the treatment at Tavernsr
