Beaufort is a port -:9 a good harbois and affording an inlet of greater depth of water than any other in the state," wlihhe "exception of that of Cape Fear, f understand the depth of wster to be 18 feet. There is now an inland communication from Norfolk to that port, through the Sound, and when the canal connecting tbe waters of the Nense and Newport rivers, which is now opening under the authority of the state, shall be-conrptetedt.a4tew facility will be gifen to the inland navigation j and when the Delaware and Chesapeake "Canal shall be col, there wilt be an inland com munication from the Delaware to Beau fort. This place was a rentiexvous for the privateers during tbe war; there they brought their priaes, and goods were conveyed from that point' to the North and the South.
