pleased to direct the publication, in this Colony,

Cape Grinez and Point d'Alpreck, on the South
side of the Strait of Dover.

By His Excellency's Command,

WILLIAM CONNELL.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.

There being grounds for believing that, not-
withstanding the publicity which was given in
the month of March last, by direction of the
Right Hon. the Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty, to the Translation of a Notice,
issued by the French Government--the Altera-
tions which have since been carried into effect
in the lights at Cape Grinez, and at Point d'Al-
preck-have not become generally known;
The said Notice is now republished for the far-
ther information of all persons employed in the
navigation of Vessels in the English Channel,
viz.

Hydrographic-Office, Admiralty,
March 18th, 1842.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.
(RECEIVED FROM THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT.)

Alterations in the Lights of Cape Grinez and of
Point d'Alpreck, on the South Side of the
Strait of Dover.

CAPE GRINEZ LIGHT.

The fixed Light established on Cape Grinez
in November, 1837, in lat. 50° 52' 10" N. and
longitude 1° 35' 9" E. of Greenwich, will on
the 1st July next, be converted into a Revolving
Light, which will re-appear every half minute.

The additional Flashing Light will be visible
8 leagues, and will be distinguished from that
of Calais by the difference of their respective
intervals, that of Calais being 90 seconds, and
that of Grinez only 30 seconds; and further,
the bright glares of Calais Light are separated
by perfect darkness, while in the intervals be-
tween those of Grinez a faint light will be visi-
ble to vessels within the distance of 4 leagues.

LIGHT OF POINT D'ALPRECK.

On the same day, the Fixed Light on Point
Alpreck, in latitude 50° 41' 37". N., and lon-
gitude 1° 38' 54" E., will every two minutes
change into flashes of Red Light, which are to
continue for three seconds.

This light will not be visible more than four
leagues.
