FARISH & CO.'S STAGE ROUTES.

William P. Farish & Co.'s Stage Lines offer great inducements to the travelling public. There is, perhaps, no Stage Company in the United States prepared to accommodate with so much comfort, safety, and convenience to the traveller, as Farish & Co.'s. Their coaches are new, handsome, and elegantly fitted up; their horses are well broken, and for appearance and speed unsurpa.s.sed; their agents are polite and accommodating, and their drivers are experienced, capable, and cautious. They have the means to accommodate the public, and will on no occasion spare them. The following is a schedule of their respective routes:

FROM CHARLOTTESVILLE TO STAUNTON.

Leaves Charlottesville daily at 2 P.M., arrives at Staunton (the night stand) at 9 P.M.
