Norfolk being the most convenient and accessible
harbor on our Atlantic coast for distressed vessels TO
put into to repair re6t, it should follow as ne,
cessary consequence that the requisite facilities ana
accommodations for despatch in sending such vessels
on to their destination sin good order and well con-

the pleasure TO state, that such facilities can be al
forded by ship carpenters and other mechanics as
promptly as in any other port in the United States
Having last year noticed the marine raitcay erected
By John G. Colley Esq. in his ship yard, by which
vessels are drawn up on the rays by of steam
mower we have again the pleasure to call attention 10
similar structure in that of Mr.. William H. Hunter,
which is now in successful operation; and any who
may have curiosity enough to carry them to his ship
yard today may see the British barque Countess Oh

tested by the House when the report was laid before
them, the prospect Of any favorable acton is very
small, though we believe the country generally views
the contemplated scheme with more favor than for

fairly discussing the project its own merits, with.

THE EXCHEQUER PLAN

The Madisonian and the National lntelligencer
both approve of Mr.. Tamadge's plan Of fiscal
agent The reports and counter reports in relation to
this fiscal agency, are entirely too lengthy for us TO
give them a place in our columns. At present too,
we have but few words to say upon this subject,
important as it is five cannot get any thing better,
and there is no hope that can, let Congress make
the Exchequer plan perfect possible, and at
once, without delay, settle this vexed question OF
the currency IT, when put In operation, II should
prove to be nmica the interests Of the country It
can easily be repealed and lift work well, as we are
in hopes it will, so much the better.
