The Ship Great Republic.

This noble vessel proves upon examination, to be in not so bad condition as was at first supposed. The hull is entirely good, and all her timbers as sound as when first set in their places. The burning is confined to the light wood work amidships and on the after deck. Thousands will be glad to learn that this noble vessel will again float upon the waters in all her former greatness.-- New York Herald.
