WILLIAM H. REYNOLDS.

THE following Notice to Mariners, containing direc-
tions for the navigation of the South Channel, conse-
quent upon the completion of the Lighthouses, from
which lights will be exhibited on and after the 1st

Department of Trade and Customs,

SOUTH CHANNEL LIGHTS.

REFERRING to the Notice to Mariners on the subject
published on the 6th January, 1873, notice is hereby
given, that these lights will be exhibited on and after
the 1st of June, 1874.

The "Eastern Light" (immediately under Arthur's
Seat) is a fixed 4th-class dioptric light, 80 feet above
high water level, and is visible in clear weather about
fourteen miles.

The "South Channel Pile Light" (placed at
eastern end of Channel, in the position formerly
occupied by No. 10 buoy) is also a fixed 4th-class
dioptric light, 27 feet above high water level, and is
visible in clear weather about ten miles.

The Eastern Light shows-

Red between S. by W. W. and S.E. E., and
White between S.E. E. and E by N. N.

The South Channel Pile Light shows-

Red from W. S. round northerly to N.E N.,
and
White between N.E. N. and S.S.E.; between
the bearings of S.S.E. to W. S. this light
is obscured.

Vessels entering the South Channel from seaward
should steer in with these two lights (White) in one
bearing E. S.; but in approaching within quarter of
a mile of the South Charmel Pile Light, in vessels of
heavy draught of water, care must be taken to bring
the Eastern Light under Arthur's Seat well to the
northward of the Pile Light, in order to avoid shoal
soundings of 20, 21, and 22 feet, recently obtained by
Captain Stanley whilst re-surveying this channel.

After passing the Pile Lighthouse steer about E.,
taking care to get sight of its light again (Red) before
