This work has been undertaken, from a be- lief that something of the kind is wanted, by citizens and strangers, as a book of reference, and guide to the numerous business concerns of this extensive city. Philadelphia as it is, comprises every information which may be required, and which, it is believed, cannot be obtained elsewhere without much loss of time. It occupies a place hitherto unattempted, and forms a complete manual for the merchant and traveller, presenting a statistical view of the city, with the most important and useful details for the more frequent subjects of inquiry. Great labour has been bestowed in collecting and arranging the materials, and the general accuracy of the work can be depended on. Omissions must, of course, be expected, in a first attempt; and the publisher will be thankful to gentlemen who will point out any errors, which will be corrected in future edi- tions.

The city was founded by William Penn, in the year 1682. The original design of the pro- prietor would have covered an area of more than twelve square miles, but by his charter of 1701, the plot of the city was contracted and declared to be bounded by the two rivers, an extent of about two miles east and west, and on the north and south by Vine and Cedar streets, an extent of about one mile. But the progress of im- provements, long since broke beyond these limited boundaries, and now we behold the city compactly built along the Delaware nearly four miles, though for municipal purposes, the boundaries of the city proper remain unaltered. The city is divided into the follow- ing districts : — the corporations of the city of Phila- delphia, of the Northern Liberties, Kensington, Spring Garden, Southwark and Moyamensing. The whole number of streets in the city and districts is about six hundred, varying much in width, Arch street being sixty feet, Market street one hundred, Broad street one hundred and thirteen, while others are much narrower. 1 10 GOVERNMENT. The first municipal officers were appointed by the Proprietary, but the people soon manifested their dis- approbation of a system of government in which tliey had no share, and manifold were the complaints to the General Assembly of the abuses practised under it. On the revolution, this unpopular charter was abrogated by the General Assembly, and the city remained under the provincial government until 1789, when it was a second time incorporated. This charter continued in force until the year 1796, when the present system was established. The government of the city proper is vested in a Mayor, Recorder, and fifteen Aldermen, a Select and Common Council, besides subordinate executive officers. Mayor. — Under the act of incorporation of 1789, the Mayor was annually elected by the Aldermen from their own body; the act of 1796, invested the Select and Common Councils, with the power to elect, and by a supplement passed April 10, 1826, the Councils were no longer restricted in their choice to the body of Aldermen, but were authorized to elect annually any citizen of the city, to the office of Mayor. He is authorized to issue warrants to any part of the county of Philadelphia, for the apprehension of persons charged with having committed any offence within the city; subpoenas to any part of the state, and also writs of capias into any county, for the apprehension of any person indicted or outlawed, for felonies committed within the city. He has the appointment of all the officers of the corporation, except the City Treasurer, and the Clerks and Messengers of the Councils. His salary is two thousand dollars a year, and he cannot GOVERNMENT. 11 hold any office under the United States government pending - his term. The Recorder of the City under the act of 1789, was elected by the Mayor and Aldermen, for the term of seven years, but by the act of 1796, the appointing power was vested in the governor of the state, and being in a strict sense a judge, he holds his office dur- ing good behaviour. He is vested with the powers of a Justice of the Peace, and Justice of Oyer and Terminer, and General Gaol delivery for the city. He receives a salary from the state, and also from the city, and his office is incompatible with offices under the United States. Aldermen. There are fifteen Aldermen appointed by the Governor, who are invested with the powers of Justices of the Peace, and have jurisdiction of all causes of action arising from contract, where the sum demanded is not above one hundred dollars, except where the title to lands may come in question, or actions upon promise of marriage. They hold their commissions during good behaviour. Mayor's Court has the same criminal jurisdiction over offences committed within the city as the Sessions has for the county. It is held by the Mayor, Recorder and Aldermen, or any three or more of them, whereof the Mayor or Recorder shall be one. The Mayor pre- sides when present. Councils. The whole legislative power of the cor- poration is exclusively vested in the Select and Com- mon Councils, who are annually chosen by the people on the second Tuesday in October. They receive no compensation, sit in separate chambers, and each body has a negative on the legislative acts of the other. 12 PUBLIC SQUARES. The Common Council consists of twenty members, elected from such citizens as are qualified to serve as members of the House of Representatives. The Select Council is composed of twelve members, from citizens qualified to serve as senators of this com- monwealth. They are chosen for three years, are divided into three classes, and vacate their seats in rotation, so that one third may be chosen every year- PUBLIC SQUARES. The various public squares, reserved in the original plan of the city, evince the foresight and judgment of William Penn. They are not only conducive to health, by promoting a free circulation of air, but are pleasant places for recreation to the citizens, during the heat of the summer. Independence Square, which extends from Chesnut street to Walnut street, and from Fifth to Sixth streets, is tastefully laid out in gravelled walks, delightfully shaded by indigenous and exotic trees, and enclosed by a substantial iron railing. It is thrown open to the public as a promenade, and is a place of general resort. This square is 398 feet from east to west, and 470 feet from north to south. Washington Square, extends from Sixth street to Washington street, 456 feet, and from Walnut street to Locust street, 370 feet. This square was formerly Potter's Field, but is now laid out in delightful walks, and is planted with a variety of beautiful trees. It is surrounded by a row of flourishing Linden trees, planted on a line with the curbstone of the street, and is also a place of general resort. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. 13 Franklin Square lies between Race and Vine streets, and Sixth and Franklin streets. Its extent from north to south is 632 feet, and from east to west 600 feet. It is also handsomely laid out in gravelled walks, planted with trees, and thrown open to the public. Penn Square, formerly called Centre Square, is at the intersection of Broad and High streets. This space, though formerly entire, was in 1828, by order of Coun- cils, cut into four instict square, which have not yet been thrown open as public walks. Logan Square extends from Race to Vine street, and from Schuylkill Fifth street, westward. This square is not yet improved. Rittenhouse Square, is of the same dimensions as Logan Square, and lies between Walnut and Ann sts. extending westward from Schuylkill Fifth street, be- yond Schuylkill Fourth street. Not yet improved. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. The Slate House. — The circumstance of the Con- gress of the United States having held its deliberations within these walls, and the Declaration of Indepen- dence having been first publicly read from the steps, July 4, 1776, gives an interest to this building. It was commenced in the year 1729, and finished in 1735, and though externally plain, has a venerable appear- ance. The whole original expense was not quite six thousand pounds. The steeple by which it was for- merly surmounted was taken down about the close of the revolution, but in 1828, a new one was erected, in order to restore as nearly as practicable this venerable 14 PUBLIC BUILDINGS. building to its original features. It stands on Chesnut street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, and though for- merly isolated, the whole square is now occupied by public buildings. Bank of the United, States. — -This splendid building, which is composed externally of marble, stands on Chesnut street, between Fourth and Fifth streets. The foundation stone was laid April 19, 1819, and the building was completed in August, 1824. It is mo- delled after the Parthenon at Athens. Bank of Pennsylvania. — This building has fre- quently been pronounced the chastest specimen of Grecian architecture in the country. The design is taken from the temple of Minerva at Athens. The whole building is composed of Pennsylvania marble, The first stone was laid in April, 1799, and the whole finished in 1801. It stands on Second street, between Chesnut and Walnut streets. The Exchange, when completed will be among the most splendid edifices in the city. It is composed of white marble, and stands at the junction of Dock and Third streets. The Post Office is in this building. The Arcade stands on Chesnut street, west of Sixth street, 100 feet front, and extends north 150 feet to Carpenter street. The first story is occupied as stores and shops, the second as offices, and the third by Peale's Museum of Natural Curiosities. The cellars are occu^ pied as refectories. This building which is of white marble, was erected in 1826-27. The University and Medical College Halls stand in PUBLIC BUILDINGS. 15 Ninth street, between Market and Chesnut streets, and are each 85 feet front, by 112 feet deep. Erected in 1830-'31. The Mint stands on Chesnut street, near Broad street. It is of the Ionic order, built of white marble, presenting a front of 122 feet. It was commenced in 1829. Pennsylvania Hospital^ occupies an entire square be- tween Spruce and Pine streets, and Eighth and Ninth streets, containing about four acres. The institution was founded in 1750, and in 1755 the east wing of the present commodious building was erected, since which many additions have been made. In the yard fronting on Pine street, is a leaden statue bronzed of William Penn, on a marble pedestal, who is represented holding a scroll, having part of the first sentence of the "Charter of Privileges," inscribed on it. This statue was presented by John Penn, of London, to the Hospital, in the year 1801. The Marine Asylum stands on the eastern bank of the Schuylkill, a short distance south of the city line. It is 386 feet long, consisting of a portico 90 feet, sup- ported by eight Ionic columns, and two wings each 148 feet. The Alms House. A splendid and spacious build- ing for the reception of the poor stands on the western bank of the Schuylkill, opposite Cedar street. It was commenced in 1831. Pennsylvania Institution for the Deaf and Dumb is a spacious building, constructed of granite, located on 16 PUBLIC BUILDINGS. - the west side of Broad street, near Pine street. The whole front is 96 feet 6 inches, and 63 feet deep. The foundation was laid in May, 1824. The Eastern Penitentiary of Pennsylvania. The external appearance of this building conveys a vivid idea of the magnificent castles of Europe during the middle ages. The walls are twelve feet thick at the base, and the principal front 670 feet in length. The ground occupied by it contains about ten acres. The corner stone was laid May 22, 1823. House of Refuge, stands at the corner of Francis' Lane and the Ridge Road, in a plot of ground 400 feet in length, and 231 in breadth. The main edifice is 92 feet front, by 30 deep. The corner stone was laid June 21, 1827. Theatres. — There are three theatres in Philadelphia : the Chesnut street, the Walnut street, and the Arch street. That in Chesnut street is near the corner of Sixth street. It is calculated to accommodate more than 2000 persons. The present building was erected in 1822. The Walnut Street Theatre stands at the corner of Ninth street, and is 96 feet 6 inches front, by 146 feet deep. It was built in 1809. Arch Street Theatre stands a short distance west of Sixth street, and will contain about the same number as the Ches- nut street house. It was built in 1828. ' The Water Works. — Of all her public works, Phila- delphia has most reason to be proud of that by which the Schuylkill water has been introduced throughout the city. In 1797, a plan was adopted which was to form a reservoir on the east bank of the Schuylkill, from which water was to be thrown by a steam en- gine into a tunnel, and thence carried to another engine FASHIONABLE RIDES, &C. 1? house, at the centre of the city, where it was to be again raised by a second engine into a reservoir, from which it was to be distributed in pipes through the city. Ten years experience proved that a sufficient supply could not be obtained by this method, accord- ingly, in 1811, a new reservoir was created, and two large engines constructed, which, however, proved inadequate to supply the demand, although the annual expenses were enormous. In 1819, the project of damming the Schuylkill, and erecting the works at Fair Mount was commenced, the whole cost of which was in 1824, $432,512, and the entire amount expended on the successive operation, $1,443,585. The con- sumption in the summer months is about 3,000,000 gallons for 24 hours, and the iron pipes through which the water is conveyed to the city and districts, make together an extent of about sixty miles. The sum annually paid for the use of the water is upwards of 60,000 dollars, and the experience of years has shown that the power is sufficient to raise many times as much water as the city can possibly require for its consumption.* FASHIONABLE RIDES, &c. The Columbia Rail Road enters the city at the in- tersection of Broad and Callowhill streets, and its place of crossing the Schuylkill is about a mile and a * On the 1st of January, 1833, there were in the city and liberties seventy-two and a half miles of Iron pipes. The receipts for water rent the present year, amount to $77,567 75. Expenditures of work- ing the machinery, $1600 — salaries, &c, $3500. 18 FASHIONABLE RIDES, &C. half above Fair Mount Water Works, where a splendid bridge is now in progress. It is a fashionable and de- lightful ride in the cars to the river. The Philadelphia and Norristown Rail Road enters the city at the intersection of Ninth and Buttonwood streets. It is completed to the upper part of German- town. In the summer of 1832, pleasure cars were placed upon it, with horse power, since which time locomotive engines have been employed. The cars run six or eight times a day, and the ride is as delight- ful as it is novel. Gray's Ferry, renowned as the junketing place of our forefathers — where our grandfathers and grand- mothers danced and sung — where the scenery has a right pleasant smack of the antique about it, and where the floating bridge still swings as it did in the days of the revolution. To reach this spot, the tourist passes by one road the Naval Asylum and the Arsenal ; by the other, the new Alms House, all worth a visit. Eeyond the ferry we follow the Darby road, lined with the redoubts prepared for the reception of the English during the late war ; turn off opposite the Blue Bell to Penrose's Ferry, making a pleasant ride of almost fifteen miles. Laurel Hill — cross the Upper Ferry, and pass through the pretty village of Mantua. The Columbia Rail Road crosses the river at this place, and half an hour may be agreeably passed in examining the works and the scenery. At the Falls Bridge there are temptations of various kinds. The best plan is to push on to Flat Rock, passing the Wissahiccon, and through Mana- yunk. WARDS. 19 The Wissahiccon is a volume of itself, unfortunately a sealed volume to ninety-nine in a hundred of the Philadelphians. There are several ways of getting at it; the stout, vigorous pedestrian, who, with his crabstick in hand, cares little about a good ramble, should make his way to Chesnut Hill, stretch beyond, to the intersection of the road with the creek, and there take the foot-path on the east bank. He has now about seven miles down the stream to the Schuylkill, and a walk unequalled for interest. A constant suc- cession of waterfalls, rocks, precipices, rustic bridges, picturesque mills, meadows and streams present them- selves. Pic-nic parties should leave their horses at the Falls of Schuylkill, and take the Wissahiccon at the mouth. The lovers of the picturesque, when fairly in the spot, will soon learn the geography ; the study will amply repay them. WARDS. The City is divided into fifteen wards, which are bounded as follows : — Western Wards. Cedar — From Seventh to Schuylkill, Pine to South, N. by Locust, E. by New-Market, S. by Moyamensing.

There are at present in the city and county three prisons — one at the corner of Sixth and Walnut streets, for the reception of convicts — one at the south-west corner of Arch and Broad streets, for debtors and vagrants. These two, however, are shortly to be taken down, and the spacious building now nearly completed, in Moyamensing, to be substituted in their place. The third is the Eastern Penitentiary, on Cherry Hill, and the most worthy of notice, not only on account of its 3 34 ALMS HOUSE. architecture and arrangement, but for the admirable discipline which has been adopted to reclaim its in- mates. Surrounded by massy walls, stands the building for the confinement of convicts, from the centre of which diverge the cells, which are pierced throughout their whole length by galleries. A rotunda in the centre, occupied by the superintendent, enables him to over- look the whole interior of the prison. Small yards are attached to each cell, where the prisoners are permitted to enjoy the air and exercise for two hours every day. No communication is allowed between the convicts, nor are strangers permitted to see or visit them. Each occupies his separate cell, which contains an iron frame for his bed, a loom or other implements for the labour which has been assigned him, a chair, table, and every appliance to ensure the utmost, possible cleanliness. Such as can read are furnished with a Bible, while every Sunday a chaplain preaches in the gallery, and is distinctly heard by the inmates of every cell. By means of flues, an equal and sufficient heat is kept up in the coldest weather. Although this system is a new experiment in prison discipline, it already promises to be attended with the happiest results. The criminal in silence and solitude, has an opportunity of looking back upon the errors which have thus degraded him, and comes back into the world doubly armed to resist the temptations which have misled him. ALMS HOUSE. The present Ahns House is situated in Spruce street, on the south side, between Tenth and Eleventh streets, embracing the whole square. It is a plain brick build- FIRE DEPARTMENT. 35 ing. This building will be taken down in a few years, and the inmates removed to the spacious and beautiful buildings now being erected on the opposite side of the river Schuylkill, when will be connected with the esta- blishment, agricultural employment, as well as other occupations conducive to health, and to the reduction of pauperism.
