Of Maryland.
The Commissioners appointed by
the law of Virginia and the resolutions
of, Maryland of the yearl82l, Jointly to
examine the affairs of the Potomac
Company-the state ofthe navigation
of the River Potomac, its susceptible
ty of Improvement, and to make report
whether the said company had com
piled with the terms of its Charter
granted by the two States, and its a
bility to comply within a reasonable
time, and whether any and what aid
should be given to the said company,
and what would be the best means of
effccting an Improvement in the nayi.
CATION OF the said river. Report
That in compliance with the in.
functions ofthe two states, they did as
semble in Georgetown on the ID day
OF July last, and commenced the dis.
charge Of their duties by examining
the affairs of the Potomac Com.
pany and it appears the Company
had not only expended the whole Of
the dividing stock but have incurred
heavy debts which their present re-
sources can never enable them todis-
charge, nor is it reasonable TO expect
in such circumstances, that they can
ever effect The objects of their incorpo-
ration a distinct statement of the ac-
counts, debts, receipts and expendi-
tnres of The said company is hereto an

The provisions and special condi

states, then occupied their attention
previous to the examination of the
works which had been executed under
The direction and at The expense of this
company on the river from the best
consideration which they could give
the subject, it appears to the Commi.
sloEers that the Potomac Company
have failed TO comply with the terms
and conditions ofthe acts of their in
- corporation.
Z AN abstract Of the Charter and the
laws relative to that subject are here
with presented marked (B.) Il will
be there seen that the right to take
tolls, and all other privileges were
granted them on condition that the ia
vigaton of the river, should be com
pleted within given specified time
which has been vaiiously extended by
subsequent laws, and finally expired
