TO THE EDITOR OF THE ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE

yelled over the new turnpike road from Drane's
Tavern to your town: the road is an excellent
one, and must be great convenience to travel.
lers, especially at such a season Of the year as
the present ] was concerned and surprised at
seeing so few wagons on it.-This arises, in
some degree. from the difference in expense on
this road and on that to Georgetown caused by
the number of gates between Drane's and Alex
andria, being four, one of which belongs to the
Leesburg Company-the other three to the Al
exandria Company; at each Of which, going
down, the toll is six cents for each horse COM
posing the team, and three cents returning
making, in all, one dollar and forty -four cents
for distance of about twenty miles;-whereas
there is but one gate between Drane's and
Georgetown, which, going and returning costs
but thirty six cents: the difference being one
dollar and eight cents between the two roads.
there being no toll at the bridge. know that
the difference in the toll has eau ed many of the
wagoners to prefer the road to Georgetown. If
the expense Of the road to Alexandria was not
more than that TO Georgetown, the wagons
would take the Alexandria road have made
this communication to you for the consideration
Of the President and Directors Of the Middle
Turnpike Road, to let them see, that unless the
tolls on their road, and at the Leesburg Compa-
ny's gate at Difficult Run, are reduced, that the
small toll on the road to Georgetown, and tie
free bridge at the Little Falls will draw off from
Alexandria all the wagon trade from the north.
