he had found the right one and erected

RIGHT GOOD CREWS THEY ARE.

Commodore Weaver Inspects the Monitor
Fleet Lying Below tho City.
The monitor fleet lying about three
miles below the city was inspected on
Tuesday by Commodore Weaver, OF the
Norfolk navy-yard.
The Commodore went down to the
feet about 10 o'clock in the morning.
He was received by Commander Gra-
ham, Surgeon Cabell, and other officers,
and crew sat quarters. The ships were
inspected, and proved to be in a first
class and satisfactory condition.
After lunching with the officers the
Commodore returned to the city about 2
o'clock, and left for Norfolk that same
afternoon.
This is tho first time that Commodore
Weaver has inspected the monitors since
he has been in command Of the Norfolk
yard. These inspections are made about
once a year, the last previous to this
being by Commodore Brown, who WAS
then stationed at Norfolk.
