an ornament may be added (0 their librariw.
The pric» tf I'uMiribers will be % dolls. 75 ctt.

Each volume will contain about one third less

"TPHE excellence of this road, the populous-

es, with sundry cthtr advantige-s, which rendtr
it so far preferable to tlis Old Road through
Brifkd, Brunf#ii=k, &c. long ago suggested the
propriety of Its becoming the Grand Tho.
rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New York
During the present year, a minute survey of|t
has been taken.and its fnperiority over the Old
Road, both in winter and summer, has been
clearly afcertained.—Thsre are good bridges
over all the oth»r Waters but the Delaware
and here the croffiFg is performed with great
fafety and in less than half the time required at
the Trenton Ferry. The road if fevcral miles
Jborter than the old road, but this is amon ;t
the lead of its advantages beoaufe daily expe
rience proves to us, that difpateh as wellascoir-
I'ort in travelling principally depend on the
goodnefn of the road and the level ness oft.ie
country. aridi in these rc'pedlsT the New Road
is, beyond all coinparilou, the bell. It presents
none us thiSfe rocky liills, which render the Old
Koad la fatiguing between the Delaware and
Newark. Ihe foil, too, for the greater part, is
such as to produce but little mud in winter, arid
very little uft ii. summer, which cin umlknce,
added to the b'-.tuty ot the country, and a con
liderable proportion of (hade, null always ren

Fare for pafleugers, Five Dollars.
Way passengers 6 Cents per Mile.
Each paflenger it allowed to take on i 4 lbs. of
baggage cirriage free; but all other baggage,
taken on by a pafieuger, will be charged at 4
c ents per pound weight.
With refpedt to packages sent on without
paflengers, the pnjpriet prel'ume they have
adopted a regulation,** % , though unknwwn
to other lines of flage;, ,iev think mult meet
with general approbation, They pledge them-
I'elves to make g.tod every package on the fol
low ing conditions. The person who delivers
the package at the ofSce (hall fee it entered in
the ttage-book, for which entry he (hall pay 6
cents ; he will then (Ute the value of the pack
age,and pay (exclusive of the carriage) one per
cent, on the v.ilue, ai infuriflce, and for which
he will receive a receipt. Thus, for instance,
if he ellimates his package at onedollar, he will
pay one cent, and if at one hundred dollars, he
will pay one dollar insurance, and in like pro
portion for packages of any other value.
Very few persons it is presumed, will diftike
this regulation 1 it will however, be optionable
with every one to avail himfelf of this security
or not. But the proprietors think it right to
slate very explicitly, that they will be respon
sible for the fafe delivery of no package, which
is not regularly entered, and for which 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 good accommodation
and entertainment for the paficngers at the mail
reasonable rates The stages are well equipped
furni hed with fleet and fteailyhorfes,and com
mitted to the care of intelligent sober and obli
ging drivers. The proprietors themselves live
at the different (owns and villages wh»re the
llages will ltop.io that theconducl of the per
sons they employ is continually an objefl of their
attention.— They* take car* also to lee that the
paflengers are well provide.! for and politely
treated at the taverns, and that no fort of chica
nery or iufiileiice is pra&ifed upon them ; in
short, they hdvefparedneitherpainspdrexpence
to reuder the SWIFT-SURE the very belt line
of flakes 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 aßd
New-York. Every paflenger has found the
road tofurpa.'i very far all that has been said of
tit excellence ; and the Proprietors of the Swift
Sure arc extremely happy to hear the behavicu,
of their drivers, and the treatment at Tavernsr
fpulcK of with the highest fatisfaiflion.
