to appjint a Committee of ten meoibers,
“to disseminate iniijriuulion on the subject
of internal improvement, and to publish an
Address.” 'J’his address has been anxious
be obtained where there ia a greater depth
of water than at either of the places already
mentioned, by tVie construction of a pier or
breakwater. With respect to inland linvi.
gution, no place is more favorably situated
than Beaufort, tho bound luto which the
Neuse, Roanoke, Tar, Chowan and I'as^

coasters and steam boats throughout. 'J he

communication with tbe back country, a
