The Swift-Sure,
A NEW LINE OF STAGES,
NOW RUNNING BffcWK-EN
PHILADELPHIA NEW-YOR%
By the (hort and pleasant road of
Bufllettn, New/town. Scotch Plains, Spring.
Jitld and Newark.
~pHE excellence of this road, the popu!oi:C-
X nefi of the country through which it pafT
ei, with I'untlry other ad' antig'-s, which render
it so far preferable to tin Old Road through
Briftnl, Brunfwwk, &c. long ago fnggefl d tTne
propriety of its becoming the Grasd THo
rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New Yerfc.
During the prefeDt year, a minute fmvey nf it
has been taken,and its superiority over the Old
Raad, both in winter an i iumrr.er, has been
clearly ascertained.—There are good bridge*
overall the other waters but the Delaware,
and here the crofling is performed with great
fafety and in lei's than half the tirre required at
the Trenton Ferry. Ihe roaJ is fevtral miles
Jbortcr than the oil road, but this is amongj
the lead of its advantages, becatife daily expe«
1 ience pi oves to us, that difpatcb as well as com»
fort in travelling principally depend on the
jooduef* of (he road and the levelnefs of the
country, and, in these relpefls, the New Koad
is, beyond ill ccmparifon, the belt. It prefenu
none of tfcofe rocky hills, which render the Old
Koad f4 fatiguing between the Delaware and
Newaik. The foil, too, for the greater part, i&
such as to produce but little mnd in winter, and
isry litile 'uft h. summer, which circumftmee,
added to the brauty of the country, and a con
lidersble proportion of (hade, rruft always ren
der travelling in the latter season peculiarly a
grreabLf.
The Swift Sure flirts from PHILADEL
PHIA, at 6 o'clotk every morning (Sundav>
excepted) from die GREEN 7RUE, opposite
the Lutheran Church, North Fourth ftrret. It
uoes through Krankford to Uuftleton, where it
to UreaWfafl ; from Bnftletown it goe»
through Neutowii to Penny town to dinner;
from Penny tounthrough Hopewell, Miliftone,
Uour.d-b ook, Quibblc'.own and PUinfield to
Scotch Plaint to lodge. The next morning it
flops at Springfield to breakfaft, from whence
it £oea through Newark and arrives at New*
York at noon.
Frotn NEW-YORK it Harts at 3 n'clock in
the afrernoon (from Paulus Hook) and arrives
at Philadelphia the next evening. For feats at
New-York, application may be made to Ed«
ward liai'Jin, GUI Coffee hoiife, to A. Mathieu,
corner of Naflau and John streets, to B. .Var.y,
no. 48, Courtlandt, corner ot Greenwicfr-ftrett,
and to Miclnel Little, at hi* hotel, no. 41,
L+rnad flieet.
Fare for passengers, Five Dollars»
Way passengers 6 Cents per Mile.
Each pafienger is allowed to take on Mibs. of
baggage carriage fret ; but ail other baggage,
tjk;n o« by a pafler.ger, will be charged at 4
c eiitr pc pound weight.
With refpedl to packages sent on without
paflVngers, the pr ipriet'.rs prelume they have
adopted a regula.'ion, which, though iitikttewn
to other lines oi ftage>, they thu.k mull meet
with general approbation, 1 hey pledge them
selves to make good every package on the fol
lowing conditi its. The pei son vho deliver*
the package at the office ftii I fee it entered in
the liige-book, for which entry he shall pay 6
siits ; he will then (late the value of the pack
age,and pay (txclufive of the carriage) ne per
cent, on the v ,lue, as inlurincr, and for which
be will receive a receipt. Thus, for instance,
it he eKimates his package it one dollar, he will
pay one cent and if at one hundred dollars, he
will pay one dollar insurance, and in like pto
portion for packages of any other value.
Very few perlbrts it is presumed, will difl'ke
ohis regulation !it will however, be optionable
w.th every me te avail himfelf of this security
or not. But the proprietors think it light to
ilate very explicitly, that they will be refpon
l":ble for the fife delivery of no package, which
is not regularly entered, and f r which an insur
ance receipt cam ot he produced.
ItJrthe J:flr:bution of the route, the greatest
care has bren taken to fix on such plates and ta
verns as always alford a good accommn ation
and entertainment, for the pafongersai the in»ft
reasonable rates The (lages are well equipped
furniihed with fleet an I ltepdyhorfes,and com
mitted to the care of intelligent foher and obli
ging drivers. The proprieiors themfelvrs live
at thedifierciit towns and villages whwre the
(lages will ftop,fo that the conduct of the per
l'ors they employ is continually an obje<f> of their
attention.— They take car* ai(p :o lee that the
pairent-ers are well provided for and politely
treated at the taverns, and that no fort ef chica
neiyor infolettce is praiStil'ed upon them ; in
Ihort, they have (pared neitlurpaiiis nor expence
to render the SWIFT-SUKE the very belt line
ol stages in America.
The line has now run nearly a month, dur
ing which time a great number of gentlemen
.have g' l !* through, both from Philadelphia and
New V 01k. Every pafienger has found the
road tofurpafs very far all that has been Taid of
its excellence ; and the Proprietors of the Swift
Sure are extremely happy to hear the behavicu,
ot their drivers, and the treatment at
Ipokefi of with the highest latisfadlion.
