 pleafure of viewing the Staffordfiire potte- 

 ries at Burjlem, and the neighbouring vil- 

 lages, which have of late been carried on 

 with fuch amazing fuccefs. There are 

 300 houfes, which are calculated to em-

 called the preparation for the employment 

 of the immediate manufadturers, the to-

 Wedgwood (the principal manufadurer)

 cream-coloured ware, and fince that the 

 increafe has been very rapid. Large quan-

 Holland, Rnjfia, Spain, the F^afi Indie s^ 

 and much to America : Some of the finell
