advantages which would result, in time

lions on the points designated; the se-
curity they would give to the extensive
shores above, &c. He referred, also,

could land Oh the Patoxent in less than

ed for a work there, if q proper one
were erected. These works, with the
aid Of those below, and few steam
frigates, he said, would give complete
protection to the commerce Of the bay
and it's waters, the extensive commerce
of Baltimore, sc. which, thus protect.
ed, could not be interrupted BY any e.
nemy in the bay. The Notifications at
the mouth of the bay, he said, could
not alone protect 1t from The incursions
O. an enemy it was necessary to have
other works above. Vessels taking
shelter from an enemy under the guns
of the Notifications he proposed, could
make sail at night fall, and. before
morning be out OF reach Of an enemy
in fact, he knew of no fortificstions in
the country which afford as valuable
protection to the commerce az those
would, which he now proposed,

sonment for debt; which was finally
laid on the table +; and
