THE FIRST STAGE-COACH.
Line Started Between New Bruns-
wick and Trenton, N. J,
in 1744.
As public conveyances or the stage
coach had been In vogue in England
since 1610, the establishment of a sim-
ilar conveyance was demanded ID
America many years before the war for
independence, says the Metropolitan
Magazine. As carly as 1744, therefore,
a stage line started to run heiween
New Brunswick and Trenton, N. J,
and by 1756 this route had been ex-
tended over from New York to Phila-
delphia. Moreover, as in England, so
in America—the advent of the stage
coach necessitated marked improve
ments in the highways while the build:
ing of better roads and turnpikes nat-
urally created a greater demand for
nore coaches, and, what was more to
the purpose. lighter vehicles. [In 1771
there were hut 33 conveyances of ev-
ery description In the city of Phila
delphia, but by 1794 their number had
increased to 827—more than two-thirds
of which were comparatively light ve
bicles—a condition which ied one ol
the local papers to publish a most dep-
recatory article concerning the use of
conveyances in which it was stated
that “even farmers wanted carriages.’
