BUREAU OF COLIT'II, EQUIPM'T AND Rxrain,
April 18, 1845.
SEALED PROPOSALS (endncied proporils for
hemp) will be received at this Bureau until the
31st day of May next, fur furnishing and delivering at
the navy-yard, Charlestown, Massachuseits, tin or be
fore the first day of July, 1846, four hundred tuns of
water-rotted hemp.
This hemp must be equal to the Riga Rein hemp
now at the navy-yard, Charlestown. I n deciding upon
offers, preference will be given to American hemp, if
offered at equal or lower price than may be asked fur
foreign hemp. The hemp must be subject to inspec
tion and approved at the navy-yaid,Charlestown, Mas
sachusetts, by persons to be appointed, by and under
instructions from this Bureau, and none will be receiv
ed which shall not pass such inspection.
Persons who troy wish to furnish hemp perfectly
free from tow, and ready for spinning, can forward
separate proposals fm such hemp; which hemp, lithe
proposals should be accepted, must, like the other, be
subject to inspection and approval at said navy-yard
before it will be received.
Persons making offers must state the price salted
per ton of 2,240 pounds, delivered at said navy-yard,
and must forward with them an obligation from two
persons of sufficient property to become sureties for
the fulfilment of the contract to he entered into, in one
third the amount of said contract.
To diminish the hazard to contractors of forward.
ing hemp from the western States, which may not he
of proper quality, or sufficiently well prepared, the
Secretary of ;he Navy has appointed two agents, who
will, when requested, inspect hemp that m3y be pre
pared and intended to fulfil contracts to be ma ie under
this advertisement. One of the agents will inspect
the hemp that may be pent to Louisville, Kentucky;
and the other that which may be sent to St. Louis, in
Missouri. These agents will be furnished with sam
plers of the Riga Rein hemp, excepting for hemp fully
prepared for spinning, and with the means of testing
the strength of hemp, and will be ready to give ell in
formation in their power, to enable to contractors have
their hemp properly prepared, and to ascertain the
strength and character of it, before the expense of send
ing it to the navy-yard is incurred. It must he dis
tinctly understood, however, that the inspection and
opinion of these agents is merely to diminish the risk
to contractors, by furnishing useful information. The
only inspection by which the hemp can be finally re
ceived and paid for will be that at the navy-yard where
it is to be delivered.
In addition to the bonds which will be required for
the faithful performance of the contract, ten per centorn
will be deducted from the amount of all bills for de
liveries, and retained until the completion of the con
tract, as additional security for its pet fotmanee. The
remaining ninety per centum will be paid within thirty
days after bills, duly approved, shall be presented to
the navy agent at Boston, Massachusetts.
