 This is the most expeditious route between New- York and 
 Philadelphia, passing over the Hudson, Raritan, and Delaware 
 rivers, and through several thriving cities and villages, — some 
 of them celebrated for their beauty of location, and others for 
 historical incidents, enacted during the revolutionary war.

 During the Summer season, passengers are conveyed by 
 sieamboat from Bordentown to Philadelphia, stopping at Bris- 
 tol, Pa., to land and receive passengers. 
 
 This is a pleasant route during warm weather,— affording a 
 fine view of the harbor and bay of New-York, Staten-Island, 
 and the New- Jersey shore,— passing through Staten Island 
 Sound, and landing at South Amboy, at the mouth of the Rari- 
 tan river, where commences the Camden and Amboy railroad. 
 
 On arriving at Bordentown, the Delaware river and sur- 
 rounding country, presents varied and picturesque scenery, 
 much enhanced by the high state of cultivation and beautiful 
 country residences which adorn the banks of the Delaware, 
 for many miles above and below Philadelphia,

 This is the most expeditious, and varied route, in regard to 
 scenery &c., of any between the cities of New-York and Boston. 
 On leaving the Depot at Brooklyn, the road for the first thirty 
 miles passes through a beautiful section of Long Island— then 
 comes a sandy plain covered with a small growth of trees, ex- 
 tending upwards of thirty miles further. As you approach 
 Riverhead, the capital of Suffolk county, situated at the head 
 of Great Peconic Bay, the country again presents an inviting 
 appearance. The steamboat route from Greenport to Ston- 
 nington, or Allen's Point, is deeply interesting,— affording a 
 view of the shores of Long Island, Connecticut,— Long Island 
 Sound, and the broad Atlantic ocean. Passengers usually take 
 their meals on board the steamboat, it being two hours sail.

 ing attempted to destroy it by m'ans of gun powder. 
 
 Fort Niagara, is an old and interesting fortification situated 
 at the mouth of Ni.agara river on the American side ; on the op- 
 pK)site Canada shore are situated the thriving village o[ Niagara 
 and Fort George. 
 
 Bvffalo, situated at ihe foot of Lake Erie, is a place of much 
 interest; here concentrates the growing trade of the "Far 
 West;" few places possess a more lively appearance. Steam- 
 boats, lane craft and canal boats are to be seen during the 
 season of navigation in gieat numbers, loading and unloading 
 their rich cargoes of produce and merchandise. This is a place 
 of much resort and a great thoroughfare; the hotels are large 
 and well kept. 
 
 Chaulauque Lake, is a beautiful sheet of water elevated 726 
 feet above the surface of Lake Erie, and 1,291 feet above the 
 Atlantic ocean. This is the highest body of watei in America 
 on which runs a steamboat. On its banks are several thriving 
 villages and handsome country residences. 
 
 Besides the above enumerated places and objects of interest, 
 there are a great many others of less note, — for a description of 
 all of which, the reader is referred to the New-York State 
 Gazettezr.

 There are three routes or modes of conveyance, dur- 
 ing the summer season, for travellers going north to 
 Canada, via Lake Champlain. 
 
 First. By Railroad and Stage, via Saratoga Springs to 
 Whitehall, 77 miles. 
 
 Second. By Railroad and Canal, via Troy and Me- 
 chanicsville, 72 miles. 
 
 Third. By Stage, via Troy, running on the east side 
 of the Hudson river, 72 miles; all connecting with com- 
 modious Steamboats at Whitehall, running to St. John's, 
 Canada; thence passing by Railroad and Steamboat to 
 Montreal. 
 
XRAVELLER'S GUIDE. 41 
 
 In going by the first route, through Saratoga Springs, 
 the traveller has a clioicc of passing direct to Whitehall, 
 through Sandy Hill, or diverging- 1o Glen's Falls, and 
 thence to Caldwell, situated at the head of Lake George, 
 or Horicon, where will be found a favorite public house. 
 Passengers are then carried over the above charming 
 piece of water in a Steamboat to the foot of the lake, 
 36 miles; thence by Stage 4 miles further, to the land- 
 ing at Fort Ticonderoga on Lake Champlain, where is 
 delightfully situated a well kept public house. This is 
 by far the most romantic and picturesque route, affording 
 the traveller an opportunity to visit many points of great 
 interest, connected with stiring events, recorded in the 
 history of the old French and Revolutionary wars. 
 
 The route by Railroad and Canal Packets, is consi- 
 dered the most expeditious and pleasant as regards com- 
 fort — passing through tlie villages of Waterford, Me- 
 chanicsvilJe and Stillwater, (by Bemis' Heights and battle 
 ground, where Eurgoyne surrendered to the American 
 Army under Gen. Gates, Oct. 17, 1777,) Schuylerville, 
 Fort Miller, Fort Edward and Fort Ann, to the village 
 of Whitehall; — being most of the way in sight of the I 
 beautiful Hudson river, skirted by scenery of the. most 
 enchanting character. 
 
 Lake Ciiampi.aix, with its landings and many beau- 
 tiful villages on its shores, deserves a more particular 
 description than we have room for. It needs only to be 
 seen to be admired, — its many headlands, and the distant 
 mountains on either side, give the surrounding scenery 
 an air of grandeur of almost unequalled splendor. 
 
 On landing at St. .Johns", Canada, your baggage is sub- 
 ject to the examination of custom house officers. Here 
 you are detained for two or three hours, until the cars 
 leave for La Prairie, distant 15 miles; thence to Mon- 
 treal by Steamboat is 9 miles further.

 ^VESTERN ROUTE. 
 
 Railroad and Canal Routes from Albany and Troy 
 to Buffalo and Niagara Falls. 
 
 The first link in the great line of Railroads^ extending 
 from the navigable waters of the Hudson to Lake Erie, 
 is the Mohawk and Hudson Raili-oad, extending from the 
 city of Albany to Schenectady, a distance of 16 miles. 
 
 The Schenectady and Troy Railroad, which has re- 
 cently been finished and put in operation, extends from 
 the city of Troy to Schenectady, a distance of 20 miles; 
 thus furnishing two lines of travel by Railroad from the 
 latter place to the tide waters of the Hudson. The city 
 of Schenectady has become a great thoroughfare. In 
 addition to the Erie Canal, which passes through the 
 centre of the city, here diverges four important Rail- 
 roads. Besides those already mentioned, the Saratoga 
 and Schenectady Railroad, runs to Saratoga Springs, a 
 distance of 21^ miles, and the Utica and Schenectady 
 Railroad, extends to the city of Utica, a distance of 77 
 miles, — the latter runs through the valley of the Mo- 
 hawk, parallel to the river and the Erie canal. 
 
 Lines of commodious Canal Packets run from Sche- 
 nectady to Utica, connecting with other lines running to 
 Syracuse, Rochester, Lockport a«d Buffalo; a total dis- 
 tance by canal of 333 miles.
