21. As only cadets who are able to swim are permitted to
    use the boats belonging to H.M.S. "Britannia," the Lords
    Commissioners of the Admiralty desire to impress upon
    parents and guardians the importance of cadets being taught
    to swim before they join the training-ship, so as to enable
    them to obtain the full benefits of use of the boats.

By command of their Lordships.

   hundred thousand pounds (100,000lb.) of quicksilver has
   been produced as stipulated to the satisfaction of an officer
   to be appointed by the Minister of Mines, and on whose
   certificate alone the bonus will be paid.

3. In the event of more than one person producing the
   required quantities of quicksilver before the dates named,
   inquiry will be made by the officer above referred to, when,
   if it is found that each applicant is equally entitled to a
   bonus, the amount will be divided in proportion to the
   quantities produced by each applicant, but in no case shall
   any bonus be paid until at least one hundred thousand
   pounds (100,000lb.) of quicksilver has been produced in the
