Cheap Transportation Vs. Rapid Transit and Delivery
To open the subject of the proposed paper, it will be assumed that the productions of our country, and the manufactures, began to assume commercial importance about the year A. D. 1800. The ocean, bays and rivers then formed the cheap transportation lines for commerce and travel; and, as a consequence, the largest cities, towns and trade centers were on navigable waters. As the country increased in population, and agriculture advanced, and manufactures prospered, yielding a surplus above the wants of the producer, centers of trade and exchange were established in the interior of the country, and such towns as Worcester in Massachusetts, Albany and Schenectady in New York.
