Engineers, who is to accompany him,
waits his arrival at Baltimore. On the
same day, the Presidents Family took the
road for his seat in Virginia
Notwithstanding the unobtrusive man
ner in which the President travels, and his
known desire to avoid parade, it is an
nounced, in all the cities, that it is in con-
temptation TO treat him with distinguish
ed respect. and to receive him with such
saluiaiions as bescem the citizens of a
Republic. In this design there appears
TO be riyalship in courtesy between the
political parties, indicative, not only Of
the me'ioration of party asperity, but Of
the prevalence ola lofty national spirit.

the points designated by the charter
af ;he Rappahannock company, so as
to atfhrd navigation as good as the
present navigation Of James River a
baye the falls.
Z" The Engineer accordingly made
such estimate, which accompanies
this report. Yonr Committee are of
opinion that in the present state of the
population and resources Of the coun-
try Interested in this ubject, it would
not be practicable to raise the funds
necessary to render the said river ma
vigabir. upon the extensive and per-
feet plan, originally proposed by the
Engineer, and thai it will be attain
ing a beneficial and valuable object
for the present to put the navigation
Of the Rappahannock into situation
as convenient and useful as the pre-
sent navigation of James River.
.. Resolved therefore, as the opinion
Of this committee, that 100000 will
be sufficient to render the Rappahan-
mock river and its branches naviSa-
bic according to the provisions of the
several ats Of Assembly on that sub
ject."
This report being received, it was
tbereupOn resolved by the Board, that
the sum of two hundred thousand dol
lars is necessary and sufficient for the
completion of the works required to
be effected by the Rappahannock
Company according to their charter.
Resolved that a copy Of the forego-
ing resolution bo transmitted to the
President and directors Of the Kappa
hammock Company.
