The C4lllllllioption of timber in Plymouth yard
is considerably greater now than in war time, the
repairs of ships being 4111 a greater scale. The sup-
ply of timber is very great, and the artificers, &c.
are in full employ.
Great apprehensions have been entertained for
many years that our navy would want a supply of
timber, but there is no fear of that circumstance
occurring, as we now obtain immense supplies from
various parts of the world. This yard has lately
received a vast quantity from the shurrs of the Adri-
atic, from Asia, Africa, &c. The timber I'
Dalmatia is very good, easily worked, and is useful
where pieces of a large scantling are required. That
from Africa if very fine, and scarcely isiferinr to
British Oak. There is little expense attached to
the procuring of it, except that of cutting clown
and the carriage, but the heat of the climate has
caused the loss of several men employed in the ser-
vice.—( Plymouth Paper.)
