4 FINE HARBOR DISCOVERED ON
THE GEORGIAN COAST.

A letter from Capt. Fatlo, of the reve-
nue. cutter Crawford, 10 the editor of the
Savannah Republican, states that he had dis
covered harbor within thirteen miles Of
Savannah, having great advantages for
southern naval depot. Its location is in
Ossibaw sound, near Montgomery. The
depth of the water over the bar al low
tide is twenty-one feet; and for distance
of FIVE miles above the bar, along the hat
Dor the water is from four TO six and seven
iathoms. From this point, ten miles TO
Montgomery there are not less than two and
a haIflathoms water al any point. The lower
harbor, according TO Capt. Fatio, is protect
ed on all sides from wind and storm, and
the country around abounds with live oak,
cedar and pine enough, with common care
and recultivation, to build navles for our
country for centuries. Montgomery, says
Capt. F., is the point where the French Ad-
miraI chose in the revolution TO land his
troops under cover Of the frigate, and sug-
gesis that in another war; our enemies
might land there, unless the government
adopts some measure for its defence, Capt.
F. urges that it be selected as the site Of a
naval depot for the south; and if his state.
ment does not exagerate its advantages,
he port is almost admirably suited for such
an ests bisbmenl.
