THE subscriber has on hand in his newly erect
Il ed Factory great variety of Carriages, all of
which, as regards durability, finish and style, will
compare with the best in the country. He would
respectfully call the attention of his friends and the
public generally of Charles and the counties ad-
joining to this fact, and at the time he takes
occasion to express to them his sincere thanks for
their former patronage. With the stock of Car
riages at present in his Factory and the facilities
which he possesses for manufacturing, he feels
confident of being able to meet the wants of those
who wish to purchase. His Factory (Which has
been lately re-built) is near the conner of Third

.ice, or taken in exchange for new ones. He has a
good assortment of second hand Carriages which

Among the features Of the work not unworthy
of attention, it may be proper to mention the large
| number Of documents taken from the Archives at
Annapolis and at London: new Interpretation of
the provincial charter the arrival of nearly fifty
prominent families connected with the colonial
ton of Maryland: the foundation of more than
ten distinct settlements upon the Chesapeake, up
on its tributaries, and upon its islands, and no.
tice of the earliest history of several of the coun
ties. The first footprints of the Anglican, and of
the Roman Catholic, of the Puritan and of the
Friend, are studiously noted. And the Protestant
Revolution of 1859 is sketched, with the exclusive
aid of documents derived from the English State
Paper Office.
But the main object of the volume-one which
cannot fail, especially at present, to interest the
student of American history, in every part of the
United States-is to trace the birth and earliest
growth Of religious liberty; to give (wbat has
never yet been in prnt) the name of every person,
who sat in the Assembly, which passed the cele-
brated federation Act to sketch the life and char
acter of each member; to furnish key TO the
faith of large majority; and to present with the
utmost fairness and fidelity, the clam of the early
Roman Catholic colonists to the honor of found
ing the first principles of religious liberty in A

CARRIAGES.
~

TNHE subscriber has now on hand the largest and
Il best assortment of CARRIAGES ever offered
n this city (Washington)-ALL OF HIS OWN MANU-
FAcTURE. From the experience and advantages
that he possesses, he thinks that he can supply on
better terms than any other person engaged in the
business. His Carriages not gotten up in
hurry merely for sale, but are made from seasoned
timber and then allowed to stand several months
before finishing, the wheels and bodies especially.
This no doubt gives the purchaser an advantage Of
from 10 to 80 per cent over those built especially
to order, and consequently made in hurry. Hav-
ing regular and steady custom every Carriage is
built that he FEELS fear in selling them to his
best friends and customers. He offers Carriages of
every description for sale at the most reasonable
and moderate prices. He invites the attention #
his friends and the public to examination of his
stock and materials.
