Oct. 2.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 2941

of the Dominion has been adopted, whereas all the other coast charts still keep to the longitude based on the determination of a few years back.

In transferring positions or courses from one chart to another, therefore, it is advisable to plot the bearing and distance from some point of land, rather than to use the actual latitude and longitude given on the chart.
