TO EMIGRANTS:
The grievous delays and disappointments attending passengers in consequence of the long detention and uncertain departure of Transient Vessels is too well known from the dear bought experience of thousands who have visited this port for the purposes of emigration. In order to remove this evil and insure you a safe, expeditious and comfortable passage to the United States or Canada, arrangements have been made by the British and American Merchants to despatch regular lines of first-class fast-sailing Packets to the following ports punctually as follows, namely, For NEW YORK four times every month
         PHILADELPHIA      twice      ditto
         BALTIMORE         ditto      ditto
         BOSTON            ditto      ditto
         NEW ORLEANS       ditto      ditto

Also for QUEBEC and MONTREAL on the 1st and 15th of each month from April to September both inclusive.

These Packets are from 700 to 1100 tons burthen, have elegant accommodation for passengers and only take a limited number who are furnished with every thing necessary for their comfort and convenience.

Freight and Passage can at all times be engaged on the most reasonable terms by applying either personally or by letter (post paid) to J. V. Hughes & Co.
