been spared in the publication; and I flattermyfelf
that the work doe 9 not yirld, either in paper or

I his edition has an advantage over fo:ne former

productionsof the author ; and, it ha- «*n advan
tage over evert other edition, Li the Pntwl EpiJUe,
which is prefiied to it, and which mull be ex
tririiely gratifying to every lover of li in
this country, as it is a proof that there are Ameri
cans who luvt the talle to admije, 'he jufbee to

The Swift-Sure,
A NEW LINE OF STAGES,
NOW RUNNING BF.TWFCN
PHILADELPHIA is" NEW-YORK,
By thelhort and pleasant road of
Bujliclin, Newtown. Scotch Plaint, Spring,
jitld and Newark.
I" 1 HE excellence of this road, the populouf
nefs of the couniry through which it pa(T
e», with Tundry other advantage*, which render
it so far preferable to liis Old Road through
Bristol, Brur.f* ii-k, &c. long ago fuggeflcd the
propriety of its becoming the Grand Tho
rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New York
During the present ytar, a minute fnrVeyoi'it
his been taken,and its superiority over the Old
Read, both in wintrr and fommer, has been
clearly ascertained.—There are good bridges
overall the other water* but the Delaware
and heri the eroding is performed with great
fafety and in I els than half the time required at
the Trenton Ferry. The road ii fe-vtrul miles
Jhorter than tile old road, bot this is amongst
the leafl of its advantages, because daily expe".
litnee piovcs to us, that dispatch as well as com
fort in travelling principally depend on llie
joodnefs of the road and the ievclnefs of the
country, and, in thsfc re pedis, the New Road
is, bejr«nd all compsrifon, the bell. It prefenu
none of thole rocky hills, which render the Old
Read U fatiguing between the Delaware and
New Jit. Ihe foil, too, tor tlij greater part, ij
luch as to produce but litfle mud in winter, and
Vjry lit vie I ull ir. summer, which cin umftince,
added to the fecaury ct the country, and a enn
liderable prop rtion of lh*de. rruft always ren
ter travelling in tl.e litter season peculiarly a
greeable.
1 lie Swift Sure flarts from PHILADEL
PHIA, at 6 o'clock every morning (Sunday*
c*c«pted) sr. in the GREEN TREE, oppofitc

Hops so Brealfift ; fifom KuftU'town it goes
ihrouj;ll Newtown to Penny-town to dinner j
' om Penny town through Hopewell, Millstone,
Quibblciown and Plainfield to
•Scotch Plaius to lodge. The next morning it
Hops at Springfield to breakfaft, from whence
it j;oe« Newark and arrives at Ntw-
York at noou.
From NEW -YORK it starts at 3 o'clock in
the Jfternoon (ttv.in Paulus Hook J ami arrives

Fare for paflengers, Five Dollarzi
Way paflengers 6 Cents per Mile.
Each passenger is allowed to take on i 4 lbi. of
free ; but all other. biggage,
taken on by a passenger, will be charged at 4
c ents per pound weight.
With refpefl to packages sent on withosi
pifTengers, the proprietors prelume they have
adopted a regulation, which, though unknown
to other lines of flages, they think mud meet
-with grneral approbation, They pledge them
selves to make good every package on the fol
lowing conditions. The person who delivers
tUc package at the office shall fee it sntered ia
the stage-bock, for which entry he (hall pay 6
cents ; he will then (late the value of the pack
age,and pay (exclusive of the carriage J one per
cent. 011 the vjliic, as infurancr, and for which
be will receive a receipt. Thus, for instance,
it Ue cflimatcs his package >t one dollar, he will
pay one cent, and if at one hundred dollars, he
pay one dollar insurance, and in like pro»
portion for package* of any other vaiue.
Very few persons it is prefuraed, will dislike
thia regulation |it will ho'vever, be optionable
with every one to avail himfelf of this fecuritjr
or not. But (he proprietor! think it right to
slate very explicitly, that they will be rtfpon
nble for the lafe delivery of no package, which
is not regularly entered, and si r which An insur
ance receipt cannot be produced.
In the aiftribution of the route, the greatest
care has bren taken to fix on t'uch places and ta
verns as always afford a good accommodation
and entertainment for tlie paflrngers at the i»6il
reafni aisle rates The Niger are well equipped
tumi'.hed with fleet anl l!ca<tyhorfes, and com
mitted to the care of intelligent sober and obli
ging di ivers. The proprietors themselves live
at thediflerrnt tow; e and villages whsrs the
llagfs will (top,fo that the conduct of the per
sons th y employ is continually an objc£l of their
attention.—They take cart also :o fee that the
paflenpers are well provided for and politely
treated at the taverns, and that no fort of chica
nery or infoleiice is pra&ifed upon thtm ; ia
short, they have I'pared neither pains nor expence
to render the SWIET-SUHE ths very bed line
o( ftjgts 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 aad
New-York. Every paflenger has found «)>?
road tofurpafi very far all that has been said of
its excellence ; and the Proprietors of the Swift
Sure are extremely happy to hear the behavic'J.
of their drivers, and the treatment at Tavernsr
I'pokeis of with the highest fatistaclion.
