I more templets and accurate knowledge, we
j have lately spent between two and three
j months, with several alfiftants, in particu-
J larly examining the different townships and j

acquired an accuiate knowledge of the whole j

to us to the best advantage, agreeably to
their rights of location, which is to be de

either in lands or warrants, when we locate
a full tract, of four thoufahd acres or moi*,

it so far preferable to tlx Old Road through
Bristol, &c. long ago suggested the
propriety of its becoming the Gra H d TM IO .
rough-Fare from Philadelphia to New York.
During the present year, a minute survey of it
has been taken,and its liiperiority over the Old
Road, both ■) winter and summer, has been
clearly aicertained.—There are good bridges
overall the other waters but the Delaware
and here the croflisg is performed with great
fafety and in lei's than half the time required at
the Trem on Ferry. "Die road is feverul miles
Jhorter than the old roirt, but this is amount
the least ofita advantages, because daily expe
rience proves to us. that difpateh as well as com-
Tort in travelling principally depend on the
goodness of the road and the |evelnef< of the
.country, and, in these relpedU, the New Road
i,s, beyond ali companion, the belt. It presents
none of thole rocky Kills, which render the Old
Road fa fatiguing between t"he Delaware and'
Newark. The foil, too, for the greater part, is
such as to produue but little mud in winter, and
v«ry Utile >uft ir. summer, which ciitumftance,
added to the beauty of the country, anil a con

The Swift S»r« starts from PHILADEL.
PHIA, at 6 o'clock every morning (Sunday*
excepted) from the GREEN TREE. opposite
the Lutheran Church, North Fourth street. It
goes through FranWord to Buftleton, where it
stops to Breaktaft ; fr>m buAletown it goet
through Newtown to Penny-town to dinner ;
front Penny-town through Hopewell, Millstone,
Bound-brook, Quibblitonn and Plainfield to
Scotch Plains to lodge. The next morning it
flops at Springfield to breakfaft, ftom whence
it goet through Kewark and arrivas at New-
York at noon.
From NEW-YORK it starts at 3 o'clock in
the afternoon (from Paulus Hook) and arrive*
at Philadelphia the next evening. For feats at
New-York, application may be made to Ed«
ward Banii.i, Old Coftee hnuf'e, to A. Mathien,
corner of Naflau and John ftieets, to B. Jtfatrv,
no. 48, Courtlandt, corner of Greenwich greet,
and to Michael Little, at hi* hotel, bo. 41,
Broad street.
Fare tor passengers, Five Dollars.
Way paffertgers 6 Cents per Mile.
Each paflenger is allowed to take on I4lbs. of
baggage carriage free ; but all other baggage,
taken on by a paflenger, will be charged at 4.
cents per pound weight.
With relpefl to packages sent on withow
passengers, the proprietors preiiiihe they have
adopted a regulation, which, tliojgh unknown
to other line* of Cage:, they think mud meet
with general approbation, They pledge them
feives to make good every package on the fol
lowing conditions. The person who deliveri
the package at the office lhall fee it entered in
the ftaftc-hook, f o r which entry he stall pay 6
cents ; he will then state the value of the pack
age, anrl pay of the carriage) one per
cent, nn the value, as infurinct, and for which
he will receive a receipt. Thus, for inftanoe,
if he ellimatts his package it one dollar, he will
pay one cent, and if at N one hundred dollars, he
w:!l pay one dollar insurance, and in like pro
portion for packages of any other value.
Very few persons it is presumed, will dislike
this regulation i it will however, be optionable
with every one to avail himfelf of this security
or not. But the proprietors think it right to
state 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 he 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 passengers at the reoft
reafnnable rates The stages are well equipped
furniihod with fleet anffleadyhorfes,and com
mitted to the care of intelligent sol er and obli
ging drivers. The pi oprietors themfelveilive
at the different towns and village* whers the
Itages will flop, so that the conduct of the per
sons they employ is continuall) an obje£l of their
attention.—They take cars also to lee the
passengers are well provided for and politely
treated at the taverns, and that no fort of chica
nery or infoletice is praSifed upon them ; in
Ihort, they have fparedneithrrpainsnor expence
to render the SWIFT-SURE the very belt line
of ft*ges in America.
The line has now rfln n-afly amonth,dur
ing which time a great number of gentlemen
have gone through, both from Philadelphia and
Njw-York. Every paflenger has found the
road tofurpafs very far all that has been said of
its excellence ; and the Proprietors of the Swift
Sure are extreniety happy to hear the behaviou
of their drivers, and the treitmegt at 'I aveinsr
lpokefi of wirh tne highest fatlsfa&ion.
