but by realon of the flats, this wharf is necefTarily extended to the
channel, where (hips can load and unload ; and when compleat
ed, will be the most extensive and commodious wharf in America,
the whole extent being about 3~4ths of a mile; and not only the
mercantile interest of New-Haven and (he towns adjacent, but th
maritime interest of all the States will be benefited by it. Thi
general wish that prevails in the minds of all clafles of people, for
the success of this enterprize, together with the very great advan
