_A number of merchants, and other public- 
Spirited individuals, have projected, and are 
about constructing, an Harbour and Basin at 
Mount’s Bay, for the security of shipping, 
where vessels of any tonnage, and on any 
wind, may find security from the storms and 
accidents so frequent 2nd so fatal’ on ae 
part of the coast. A plan of this kind has 
long been a desideratum with shippers and 
Ship owners; and, if properly Carried: into 
execution, we. ncaa no doubt will prove 
highly beneficial to the- ‘county at large, and 
amply remunerate the individuals engaged } in 
the concern.
