A new line of stages has been formed
to run between lioston and Providence,
for the better accommodation of the pub-

proprietors. Fare to be #2,00.
We have been informed of the erect'
ton
of two or more large stores , in Jarvisville ,
Sandwich , by the enterprising proprietor
of the Glass Works , Mr. J arvis. That
villag e, li as not its equal in our County ;
a larjj e amount of cap it al is invested and
a large quantity of glass ware is annual-
ly manuf actured there , which for elegance
and streng th , is not excelled by any, either
dom estic or foreign.
We have heard it mentioned th at fac-
tories are about being erected in East
Falmotith , upon « strea m that has a good
fall of water. We shall probabl y soon
feel the evils of the manufacturing sys-
tem, in our own County .
The Lowell Journal is to Oe issued
daily for the future on a small sheet.—
Manufactories will no doubt ruin our

many other similar evils are in progress,

she was nearl y senseless,when he nearly

learnt nothing official respecting it. L«

after havin g passed the Vistula near the
