Fare for paflengers, Five Dollars• Way paflengers 6 Cents per Mile* Each passenger is allowed to lake on of baggage carriage free ; but *ll othef bsggage, taken on by a pajfcnger, wilt be charged at 4 c ents per pound weight. With refpeil to packages sent on withow paflengers, the proprietors presume they have adopted a regulation, whifh, thojgh nnkniwn to other lines of flages, they think mult meet with general approbation, They pledge them selves to make good every package on the fol lowing conditions. The person who delivers the package at the office Avail fee it entered ia the fta»e-book, for which entry he shall pay 4 cents ; he will then state the value o! the pack age,and pay ( exclusive of the carriage) me per cent, on the v iijp, as infurince, and for which he w ill receive a receipt.
