About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

The Marine Board controls the Port Establishments, and alone receives returns of the shipping, port dues, &c, and that Board is almost necessarily better qualified than any other Presidency authority, to judge of the merit of any improvement proposed.
