SKERRYVORE LIGHTHOUSE. THE COMMISSIONERS of the NO HERN LIGHTHOUSES HEREBY GIVE OTICE that a LIGHTHOUSE has been erected upo he SKER RYVORE ROCK, which lies off the Isl. of TYREE, in the County of Argyle, the Light of whi will be Exhi bited on the night of the Ist FEBRUARY, 844, and every Night thereafter, from Sun-set to Sun-rise. The following is a Specification of the Position of the Lighthouse, and the Appearance of the Light, by Mr. ALAN STEVENSON, Engineer to the Commis sioners : The SKERRYVORE ROCK lies of the Island of Tyree, in lat. 56 deg. 19 min. 22 sec., N; long. 7 deg. 6 min. 32 sec. W. By Compass the Lighthouse bears from Barrahead Lighthouse, S. E., distant 33 nautic miles ; from Hynish Point, in Tyree, W.S.W. 3 W., distant 104 miles ; from lona Island, W.N.W. N., distant 20 miles; from Rhinos of Islay Lighthouse, N. E., distant 44 miles; and from Innistrahull Lighthouse in Ireland, N.E. by N., distant 533 miles. Owing to the distance to which the foul ground extends on every side of the Rock on which the Lighthouse is - placed, and the weight of sea which breaks on the shallow ground all round it, it is necessary to give the LIGHT A WIDE BERTH. The better to enable seamen to judge of this, their attention is called to a Chart, prefixed to a se parately printed notice, which exhibits the relative posi tion of the Skerryvore Rock, and the various dangers around it. In particular , it is necessary to notice the po eition of those Rocks which lie seaward of the Lighthouse, -viz., MACKENZIE'S Rock, about 3 miles W. by S. l S. from the Lighthouse ; STEVENSON'S, 24- miles W., A N ; and FRESNEICS, which lies between these two Rocks. Copies of the notice, with the Chart prefixed, will he ea tensively circulated to all the Customhouses of the United Kingdom, and will be seen by any mariner on application. The SKERRYVORE LIGHT will be known to Mariners as a REVOLVING LIGH T , pro d ucing a BRIGHT FLASH once every minute. The Lantern, which is open all round, is e l ev ated 150 feet above the l eve l of the sea. In clear wea ther the flashes o f th e Light will be seen at the distance of six leagu es ; and at lesser d istancesaccording to the state of the atmosphere; and to a near observer, in fa vourable circumstances, the Light will not wholly disap pear between the flashes. And the Commissioners HEREBY FURTHER GIVE NOTICE, that by virtue of a Warrant from the q ueen in Council, of date the 13th Dec., 1843, the following Tolls will be levied for voyages in respect of which benefit will be derived from this light, viz., from every British Vessel (the same not belonging to Her Majesty, or being navigated wholly in Ballast,) and for every Foreign Vessel which by any Act of Parliament, Order in Council, Con vention, or Treaty, shall be privileged to enter the Ports of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, upon paving the same Duties of Tonnage as are paid by British Vessels (the same not being navigated wholly in Ballast) the Toll of ONE PENNY per Ton of the burden of every such Vessel •, and for every Foreign Vessel not :so privileged, the Toll of TWOPENCE per ton.
