Sailing Vessel Inspected.

Under the marine laws all sailing vessels
of over 700 tons burden have TO undergo an
annual inspection at the hands of the
steamboat inspection service to determine
their seaworthiness and to ascertain if
they have steam power aboard to raise
anchors, sails, &c. The boiler used has
also to be inspected. 1t Is seldom that the
inspection of sailing vessels takes place
here, but the enforced laying up of the
feet of coasting schooners while awaiting
business made II necessary for the big four
masted schooner Edward e. Briry to be in
spected in this port. This was done Mon
day last by one of the inspectors from the
office of the steamboat inspectors at Balti-
more. and the big schooner was found to
be In the best of condition. The new ma
rfne regulations also require vessel masters
and mates TO pass an examination for Ii
