Op ^*»e various literary and scientifick work', which trp
[ continually offered to the public, none mo- e frequently re-
quire revision and amendment, than gtographical compila-
tiona. This may be principally attributed, to the insUbi-
lity of things liable to fluctuation, and the perpetual chan-
ges, to which nations arc subjected. In no part of the
world are these effects more observable, than in the Uni-
ted States. The peat prosperity and rapidly mcreasing
population of the country, cause* a gradual and conatant
extension of settlement, which, in a few yem, change!
a wildemesa to a state of agriculture, improvement and
civiliiationj thus fumishmg new topographical descrip-
tions, or rendering those more perfect that were previoua-
ly published. The principal merit, therefore, of a work of
this kind, consists in accommodating the delineations to
the sute of geographical improvement, and selecting such
articles and facts, as the works of travellers, or other
sources of information may afford. To render the present
edition worthy of public approbation, the method was
adopted, of addressing letters to the various post-towns of
the union, but particularly to those of the West and South ;
the publications of Morse, Spaffbrd, &c. made this mea-
sure unnecessary beyond New-York ; by this means several
hundred articles have been inserted— they are not to be
found in any other geographical work. The population of
the principal European towns, has been corrected, and ui
some instances given as late as 1811 ; those of the UbL
ted SUtes, when practicable, is inserted to 1814, other-
wise the population is taken from tlie census of 1810
The distancM of the post-towns have been pvm from

WMhington, according to the li»t pul.lisheil by tlie Post-
MMter-General in 1813. The latitude and longitude, us
well u the dlgtancea, of all tlioae places, situated on the
main post road, between the Eutern extremity of the Dis-
trict of Maine and St. Mary's in Georgia, are taken from
an actual survey of that road, made by order of the gene-
ral government in 1812. The manufacturing establish-
ments of the different towns in the United States arc
noticed, and the various military transactions of the late
war have been mentioned. Care has been taken to curtail
useful information, as little as possible, while at the samQ
time, the redundancy of trifling local details, which is
too frequently the feult of large (Jazelteers, has been avoid-
ed. The present publication, it is confidently believed,
Vill not only be found convenient, as to its portable form,
ind vahiable as a book of reference, but also useful and
Entertaining. Solicitous that this volume should be dis-
tinguished, as well by the beauty of its appearance, as by
its intrinsic merit, the publisher, to tlie fineness of the pa-
per, and neatness of typographical execution, has added
elegant Maps, which wei« not promised in the origmal
prospectus.
Information relative to this work, is respectfully soli-
rited. To those gentlemen who furnished the Editor with
communications, he returns his sincere acknowledgments,
to their poUtenes. he is indebted for the principal part
of the new articles, that have been inserted.

pursues that coiirte at far as Medicine
river, which fhlls in from the NW,
and is 137 yaitls wide i 328 poles from
the eonnuence of this river, is a small
rapid on the N shIc, from which tiK'
Missouri gradually widens to 1400
yards, and at the distani-e of 548 poles
teaches the head of the rapids, or cuiii-
neneement of tlie great falls, narrow-
ing as it approaches. Here the hills
«n the N closely border the river,
ahieli makes its way over the rocks,
far tlie space of 320 jioU's, with a de-
iceat of 30 feet ; in this course tho c ui^
rent is contracted to 580 yaids, and af-
ter falling over a pitch of 5 feet, forms
a benutifnl cataract of 26 feet, 5 inch-
n: this does not, however, fall perpen-
Acular, hi ing slopped by a part uf the
rock which prujecis at about one thiifl
af the distance. After passing an
islaml, the river goes on over rapids
Slid little falls, at an estimated descent
tt thirteen and a half fiet, till it is
jiiiittti by a large fountain boiling np
under the rocks near the edge ot the
river, into which it falls witii a cas-
««& of 8 feet ; its water is perfectly
clear, and of a b^uisli cast, which it pre-
H'cveii after minf;liiig with tliu main
river, fbr half a mile. From this foun-
tain the river descends with increiiiiiig
rapidity, until it is narrowed to 473
yinls, and here forms a K^uid cataract
tf 47 feet, 8 inches, by falling over a
flane rock the whole width of tlu' ri-
ser. This is one of the most beautiful
objects in nature, the edge uf the rock
Icing straiglit and regular as if formed

recovering itself, and pursuing n di»-
lauce of 102 poles, with a descent of 3
Ret, is precipitated down tlie ci'ouked
falls, 19 feet perpendicular ; after pas-
liftg a fall of 5 feet, the descent for 970
foles is more gradual, not being moie
Ihan 10 (bet ; and then succeeds a band-
nme level plain for the space of 170

It descends in 480 poles, about eighteen

pendicular fiill of two feet, whidi is

in apprsaching which its descent is
thirteen fl^t in 200 yards, and nlher-
ing strength from itsconflned rhaiiiiel,
which is only 380 yards wide, rushes
over the falls to the depth of 87 fiet.
It here loses itself in perfectly white
foiiin. whidi forms a most splendid
jirospect. I'his spray is dissipated
into .! thousand shapei^, sometimes fly-
ing up into columns of 15 or SO feet,
these are again succetilnl by larger
masses of the white foam, on allof
which the sun inipivsses tlie brightest
colours of the rainbow. 'I'he whole
distance of these fblls, fhim the com-
mencement of the first rapid, a little
below Mulicine river, is 10 miles. A
little distance below the great cataract,
is a sulphuric spring which failtover
the rocks on ihe N side, opposite the
mouth of Prior's creek. 'I'lie Missou-
ri now pursues a NF. course of 54
miles to Maria's river, in lat. 47 25

N, is 180 yards wide, and possesses a
gentle current. A few niifes further
it receives the Tansty fVom the west.
From this river the Missouri runs an

is marked by rows of stakes on each
side, which direct vessels of a ««»<">
burden, to avoid the shallows. Ihese
shallows arc a better defence than the

houses are built on piles. The streets,
in general, are narrow; andsoare tne

is very broani, ant! has a serpentine
course through tiK- middle of the city.
There are above 500 bridges over these
canals, the most famous ot which ii
tliat called Rialto. It is built about the
,nlddle ol the great caiwl, which divides
Venice into two parts. It is ot white
marble, and has but one arch, in which
its principal beauty consists; and is
90 feet «rom one extremity to the
other. On this bridge are two rows of
shops, whicli divide it into three streets;
the largest of which is in the mjWle.

WASHINGTON CITY, the metro-
polis of the United Slates. It is seut-
«d at the junction of the rivers Poto-
mac and the Eastern Branch, extend-
ing iilmut (but miles up each, inelud-
inSa tract of territory scarcely to be
exceeded in point of convcuieitoe, w-
lubrity, aiid beauty, by any in the
world. This tertitury, whidi is callrtl
Columbia, lies partly in the swie of
Virtnnia, and partly in that ol Mary-
lUKl, ftud was ceded by those two stales
to the UoiUil Slates of Ahienxa, and
by them eatablithed to be the teat of
guvtmoiem, iiftw the year 1800. The,
plan combines not only coBvnieaMt
reiriilaiiiv, elegance of prospect, ana •
free circulation of air, but everything
siiind and beautiful that can be intro-
dnctJ into a city. It is divided into
snuarts, or grand divisions, bj- avepua
running due N and S, intersected bjr
others running due E and W, whidi
form Uie ground work of the plan. 1 te
grand avenues, and such streets as leaa
immediately lo piibUc places, arc from
130 to 160 IVet wide; ami may be con-
veniently dividt^ into foot ways, ■
walk pliinted with trees on each side,
uiid a 1- ive4 way for carnages. Thfs
oilier streets are from 90 to 110 feet
wide. The positions of the different
public ediflces, and for the scveml
squaivs and areas, wen- determined 00
tint most iidvantofieous ground, suscep-
tible of such improvements, OS either
uiC.or omameiit mav hereafter require.
The site selected for tlie situation of
the capital, is on an eminence «oin-
manding a view of every part of the
city ; Of; other public buiklings con-
sisted of ilie president's house, and
tlwse erected for the accommodatianor
the public offices. Here are liksniie
an Kniscoiwl, Presbyterian, Roman
Catliiilie, and Ba|«iit church, > goal,
and liotel. In 1810, Washington coo-
taiiieU 8203 inhabitanti, of wbom 2304
w^re blacks. On the 24tb of Augtttt,
1814, this city submitted to the Bri-
tish forces, under the command of
Gen. Ross and Ad. Cockburn, affrr la
ineffectual struggle. Some of its pti-
vaie buikUngs were subjected to nil-
luge, and the public f difi«:s to coufla-
groiion, not even sparing the nation^
library ; thus evincing a violation at
the rules of eivilized warfare, and atr
hibiting an outrage on learning and the
arts, w^tlwut a parallel, except in tM
baibm'ous progress that formerly raark-
ed the irruptions of the VMdUs ani
Saracens. The ediflcea thut wered^
stroyiil by those rnthles» invad#rs are
at present rebuilding. N lat. 38 53 25,
