house where the collector has more duties to

on this account, the duties of the bay and river,
and Of the whole lighthouse establishment are
discharged by the collector for the district of
Delaware And if you remove these duties
from the collector of my district, you viii bring

entitled to but, at the same time, when we are
called upon here to appropriate money, do
not want to appropriate more than is necessary.

We are glad to see the above, coming,
