TRENTON. TRENTON was founded a few years prior to 1720, by an enterprising trader of the name of William Trent, after whom the place was named. Previously to his settlement, the place bore the name of Littleworth, indicative, probably, of the little estimation in which it was held. In 1748, the Swedish traveller Kalm visited this place ; he represents it as a long, narrow town, containing about 100 houses. At that time, the principal occupation of the inhabitants was the transportation of passe...ngers and goods from Philadelphia to New York, or from the latter to the former place. Vessels called yachts plied between Tren ton and Philadelphia. Each passenger paid one and six pence, besides a charge for his baggage. Provision was made by the traveller for his own support during the pas sage. Trenton was incorporated in 1792. It is the capital of the State, and is situated on the east bank of the Delaware, at the head of steamboat and sloop navigation. It is 60 miles south-west of New York ; 30 north of Philadelphia ; and 166 north-east of Washington.
