This print is in dark blue on plates. In the centre of the plate is a view of buildings, among them a church with a high fence. These are said to be intended to represent the Capitol grounds and surroundings at Albany. The border is of oak leaves and acorns, broken by five designs, four being the portraits of Jefferson, Washington, Lafayette, and Governor Clinton, with their respective legends, “Jefferson,” “President Washington,” “Welcome Lafayette The Nations Guest,” and “Governor Clinton.” The fifth design, at the bottom of the plate, is the picture of an aqueduct with the words, “View of the Aqueduct Bridge at Rochester.” Mark, impressed, “A. Stevenson warranted Staffordshire,” in circle, with crown in centre. Another mark printed in blue is of an urn, wreath, and the words “Faulkner Ware.” This plate is in the possession of A. G. Richmond, Esq., of Canajoharie. 167. Erie Canal. Utica. The plate bearing this design is usually known as the “Utica Plate.” In the centre is printed these words, “Utica, a village in the State of New York, thirty years since a wilderness, now (1824) inferior to none in the western section of the state in population, wealth, commercial enterprise, active industry, and civil improvement.” This inscription is inclosed in a laurel wreath. The border of this plate has two views of a canal lock and aqueduct, and two of a canal-boat. The print is also seen on pitchers. 168. Erie Canal. Same border, with designs of canal-boats and locks as No. 167. In the centre the words, “The Grand Erie Canal, a splendid monument of the enterprise and resources of the State of New York. Indebted for its early commencement and rapid completion to the active energies, pre-eminent talents, and enlightened policy of DeWitt Clinton, Late Governor of the State.” I have seen pitchers bearing this design and the design described in No. 167. 169. Erie Canal at Buffalo, N. Y. This print is in black upon a plate marked “R. S.” (Robert Stevenson.) Erie Canal. This entry might properly come under the head of either No. 166 or No. 167, since it describes a pitcher which had both of those decorations in blue, and also an American eagle with the words “E Pluribus Unum.” 170. Erie Canal. Black print upon a pitcher. On the right of the handle is a large view of an aqueduct, river, hills, and buildings, and the words, “View of the Aqueduct Bridge at Little Falls.” At the left of the handle a building, with the words “Albany Theatre 1824.” Below the spout a front view of the head of Washington, and words, “President Washington.” This piece is not marked with maker’s name. 171. Erie Canal. Clews. Entrance of the Erie Canal into the Hudson at Albany. Marked “Clews.” It is a pretty view of a canal lock with boats, and with high-wooded hill in the background. In foreground, groups of men fishing. This design is seen on dinner and toilet services. The border is of roses. The color is rich and dark. 172. Erie Canal.
