THE excellence of this road, the populous* ness of the country through which it pafl"- e», with sundry other advantages, which render it so M preferable Vo the Old Road through Bristol, Urunfw itik, &c. long ago V,'gefled the propriety of its becoming the Grand Tho rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New Yerk. During the present year, a minute survey ofit his been taken.and its fnperiority over the Old Road, both in winter and funimer, has been e!«arly alcertained.—There are good bridges over all the other w»t«rs hut the Delaware, and here the eroding is performed with great fafety and in le's than half the time required at the Treuton Ferry. The road i« several miles Jhorter than the old road, but this is amongA the leAfl of its advantages, becanfe daily expe i ierice piovcs to us, that dispatch as wellascom fort in travelling principally depend on the goodness of the road and the levelnefs of the couniry, and, in these re,pedis, the New Road is, bey-md all cmnparifon, the bell. It prcfetitt none of thole rocky hills, which render the Old Road fa fatiguing between the Delaware and Newiik. The foil, too, for the greater part, is such as to produce but little mud in winter, and very litile • ull in fummrr, which circumftince, added to the beauty et the country, and a con liderable proportion of (hade, u u(t always ren. der travelling in the latter season peculiarly a greeable.

Fare for passengers, Five Dollars, ' Way passengers 6 Cents per Mile- Each paflenger is allowed to take on of baggage carriage tree; but all other baggage, taken on by a paflenger, wilj be charged at 4 c ents per pound weight. With refpefl to packages sent on without paflengers, the proprietors presume they have adopted a regulation, wliieh, though uiiknswft to other line* of stages, they think must meet with general approbation, They pledge them felve* to make good every package on the fol lowing conditions: The person who deliver* tUe package at the olice (hall fee it entered is the ftage-bouk, for which entry he Ihail pay 6 cents j he will then state the value of the pack*, age,and pay (exclusive of th« carriage) one per cent, on the vjlue, u infurancr, and for which he will rtceive a reoeipt. Thus, for iaftante, if he eilimatcs his package at one dollar, be. vsiU pay one cent, and if at one hundred dellars, be will pay one dollar insurance, and in like pro* portion for packages of any other value. Very few persons it is prefuraed, will dislike this regulation 1 it will however, be optionable with every one to avail himfclf of this security or not. But the proprietors think it right to slate very explicitly, that they will be relpon fible for the fafe delivery of no package, which is not regularly (entered, and for which an insur ance receipt cannot be produced. In the dittribution of the route, the greatest care has bren taken to fix on such places and ta verns as always afford a good accommodation and entertainment for the paffengersat the most reasonable rates The llagts aie well equipped furniihed with fleet an.l fleady horses, and com mitted to (he care of intelligent fo'ier and obli ging drivtrs. The proprietors thtinfelvcs live at the different towns and villages where the f),iges will flop, so that the conduct of the per fous they employ is continuall) .in objefl of their attention —They take care also to lee that the' paflengers are well piovide.l for and po'itely treated at the taverns, and that no fort of chica nery or insolence is pra&ifed upon them ; in short, they have spared neithcrpains nor expence to render the SWIFT-SURE the very belt line oi stages in America. The line has now run nearly a month, dar ing which time a great number of gentlemen have g'.'iie through, both from Philadelphia and New-York. Every paflenger has found the road to iurpafs very far all that has been said of its excellence ; and the Proprietors of the Swift Sure are extremely happy ,o hear the behaviou, of their drivers, and the trejtnr.e'st at Tavfmsr fpokeß of with the highest fatisfaflion.
