For the information of tit Stockholders in
the company, incorporated for the erec-

company was incorporated on the 17th
day of April, 1798 ; and by a clause in
the law author/zing this mcorporatirm, the le-
B'flature may resume the righti, &granted
to the £oiti|uny, if they do not '■ proceed to
carry on the ivork" in two years, and complete
the bridge in Jive year), after they had been in
corporjied.
As soon as praflicable, the company pro
ceeded to the choice of the officers rtquired by
law j and the Prefrdent and Diredlors have been
constant in their endeavours to encrelfe the
numb»r of fttbfcribers to the stock The num
ber of Chares (übferibed when the company war
organized, was 5116 With all the exertions
made firrce, it (9 now only 5638; though of
the 15,000 contemplated by law, it,coo (at
ten dollars each) are allotted for the adhve ca
pital ef the company-
As the public opinion, coinciding with that
of the Prefi'lent and D.re<JWs, appeared to be
fixed on tile Icite at the well end of Market

amount to the value of 11,000 ftiarrs—a like sum
in four months thereafter with intereft —5000
dollars farther in eight months—an.l the like sum
in twelve months, with interest.
». The city corporation take, as payment for

monies 40,000 dollars) two tkcufond {hare* in

their mortgaging the premifci, in the contract
mentioned, for ij.ooo dollars, the refiJue of the
pecuniary payments, with iiltereft.
4 If the ereilion is not conpleted in the pe
riod fiied, or which may be fixed by the legiia
trire, tke property and rights are tq re vest in the
corpoiation of the city, on terms pi'cfcribed in the
contrail; which contains other fuberdinate ar
rangements, teo lengthy to be Utrctn particularly
detailed.
The sura agreed to be given was unavoida
ble. We fnund the courjcils of the city inflex
ibly determined not to tike fefo. We deemed
it eligible to maiq feme fact Slices (if any we
have made) to avokl competitions injurious and
embarrassing, b< th in the commencement and
pr >grefs of o*r intended snterpriie.
Warned by «xperi«itce of the fatal cinfe
quences of beginning work*, requiring exten
sive pecuniary fuppert, without a certainty of
its being within our power, we agreed to that
part of the contrail requiring 11,000 (hares tn
be ailually fubfciibed, before it tjies effefl
We do not desire to conceal our indisposition tp
embark in this undertaking, until the flufliber
of (hareS fubferibed (hall, at leafl, equal that
required by this contn<S. Nor stall we engage
in the until tke ioftalroents direfled by
law fbalJ be jn the freafucer's hands, to an
amount fufficie&t to encourage us to begin the
work, with solid proJpeils of complying with
our engagements to thole with whom we may
contrail.
We have received a number of plain in eow
fcquerice of our advert'ifement for thtf purpose,
but have made no fele&ion. We (hill prefer
that which Unites (economy with liability, md
aciommodaiinn to all circiualtancei attached to
the place of ereflion. The fcite mud be fixed
before the plin is adopted It be perceived
that a deficiency of iubfcripiions to our stock
prevents our obtaining the fcite provi/ionally
coutiailed for, which, however exptnflve it
may appear, i* certainly the melt Eligible and
produ&ive.
We have not called for the ferond instalment,
from those who have already fubfccibed, because
we do not think ourselves warranted, from pre
sent appearances, to commence the work. The
monies already paid (one d»llar on each fharr
ful.fcribul, deducing our necefla.y e'xpendi
tures, which will appear in our accounts) lie
j uitlcfs to u* in the. They m«fl remain
injft've, till by further fuHfcriptiona, we are
enabled to proceed in the execution of our
trust ; as we have no authority to employ them
for any other purpnfes, than th«fe direfted by
the adl of incorporation. Our minutes and ac
counts will be laid before the ftockhold e rs, at
the next mee'injt for the annu \ elctf i<m of'of
ficers. They are always open for the infp»c
tion of the members of the company.
All the books and forms required for the pro
grefs nf the bafmefs are prepared; and we are
otherwtle complea:ly ready to proceed, if the most
euential requisite were in our poflMfion. It will
be fecti that there is a deficiency of 536 a (hares
to pure validiry to o'ir contrail with the city cor
poration, and to juflify us in commencing the
work
We have a flrong persuasion, founded on tecu
ratc information of the product of bridges in other
states, and calculations of*profit here, that inveft
mcnts in our stock will be equal, in point of tm»
lu nrnl, wiih those made in any other per v ma»?nt
funds in this city. The company rogy divide, 19
biennial dividends, 15 per cent, annually during
twenty-five years j and ii the hridg# be made free,
