ice in White, which would ofteu render access
to il impossible the locality il too remote

and To obva.e the objection founded upon the winds,
Messrs. Hall and Bovine propose the erection Of
break Of stone piles in the form at bali moon,
behind which to locate the Hostiug structures aud in
the lee Of which they would be fully protected. Mr..
Beuson, the third member of the Commission regards
this a. impracticable. He estimates the cc-t Of build

vored by Mr. Benson for the permanent Quarantine Of

large and safe and is protected all sides from the
swell of the ocean-hss sufficient depth of water for
the largest vessels il remote from inhabited districts,
is available only for Notifications, Quarantine and
Lighthouse purposes, sad Is 10 close proximity to the
vessels entering the port
The main objection to Sandy Hook AZ q loration is
that il is too tar distant frem the city and that Quaran
tine anchorage and s.ore-honses established tbore
would initiate against the interests Of commerce.
Another objection il that tho locality cannot be Oh

Gov. King expressed himself in favor of Sandy Hook
Us q permanent location for the Quarantine. The
party walked across Sandy Hook, took yiow OF the
ocean examined the site Of the Notifications to be
erected by the Government, and returned to the Js
sepbine TO partake Of fine collation.. In returning
the steamer ran up the channel west Of the West
Bank, and landed at Quarantine. At the camp the
Governor reviewed the Sixth regiment under

inspection by Inspector-(;eneral Bruce. Here Gov
King was introduced 70 Ray rompkins, whom be re-
ceved With considerable cordiny. On r,turnng to
the city the Governor had conversation with Mr.

to tie affairs at Quarantine. They were iesirous 10

would be obeyed and life and property b. protected
by the authorities os Richmond County, he should
withdraw the troops aud not before. They replied
that there intention to do further harm; that
there was uothng existing for anybody to destiny
Gov King said thet the two wooden hospitals were
there and could be destroyed and he h assurance
if he removed the troops to day, they would nos be
buried tonight.
One of the gentlemen thought It wa doing ana

blame Of the acts ola few. The Governor replied that
the disapproval f any comfortable number Of the cit

been made apparent. Indeed large meeting q cii-
