The

necessity of unloading the steam boats a id larger barges at times in the decefld ing course, and almost every cssel in tin- ascending navigation,' calls loudly for immediate exertion, at a time when the surplus productions of our soil are so abundant and constantly increaslnsr, and the enterprise of the citizens has already carried our produce direct to Europe, thereby establishing that moat important and valuable course of exchange.
