grounded every tide, eireumaanee
which has deferred foreign vedels from
bringing eargoes TO the port, except at
a very advanced rate Of freight and
even then, very reluctantly, owing 70
their liability to damage on taking the
ground. This evil being removed,
the.e is every reaion TO believe, that
Foreigners will prefer coming here TO
