NOTICE Tr) MARINERS.
The following has been received at Lloyd's :
(Translation. )
" In consequence of the continue&incrcase of s' cam
navigation in t►ie Elbe, it appears absolutely necessary to
lay down a fixed and universally-adopted regulation with
regard to reciprocal passing of steam•boats, to avoid mis-
fortunes. In accordance with the regulations, published
Oct. 30, 1840, from the Trinity House, in London, it is
hereby made known to all those who are masters or com-
manders of steam-boats in the Elbe, below Hamburgh, as
folloes, viz.:—
_ _

" steam-boats meeting in the Elbe must both and
either give way to the right, consequently eazh of them
has to put her helm to the larboard side, that they may be
able to pass each other's larboard side.
" 2. If two steam-boats are at the same time coming
up or going down the river, the ono that is slower hns to
keep larboard side in the narrower districts of the river,
and to let the other boat pass starboarthside, whereas this
latter one is not allowed to pass starboatd-side.
• "'3. The pilots have to watch carefully that each steam-
!post, after sun-set, should carry at least ono lanthorn,
-which shall be fastened to the foremast in the usual manner.
• = "THE DEPUTIES FOR NAVIGATION.
" Hambugh, Jan. 2, 1841."

The following has been received at Lloyd's :
" Boulogne-sur-Mer, Jan. 21, 1841.
”lAr,—From the information we have been able to col-
lect : from the captains of the three vessels wrecked at the
Aritbieteuse, it appears evident that they were all misled
by the light on Cape Grinez. It is clear that the light in
.al.-respects resembles that of Dungeness, and nine cap-
tainsiut of ten who have the misfortune to run ashore on
the coast of Ambletcuse declare that they believed them-
selves:rn the English coast, from the fact of the lights al-
luded"-to being so much in resemblance to each other. We
are well aware that this statement of those captains is
correit, and we know that incessant application' for an
alteetOion in the light at Cape Grinez have been made
whlieut effect as yet. A small light has been added, but
it is of no use, as it is not visible at a short distance from
the coast. By a recent application, our Chamber of Com-
merce bas obtained an inquiry to be made on the subject,
and the result is that all the captains agree that the two
lights in question are nut sufficiently distinctive from each
other.

" If we may be allowed to emit an opinion upon the sub-
ject, we should most certainly say that if the Underwriters
of Lloyd's were to request the British Government to
apply to that of this country, it would have the desired
effect, and the light of Cape Grinez would undergo an
alteration, such as to avoid in future the less of property
on this coast to such an extent as of late, and particularly
since the existence of the light alluded to.

" We remain-, &e.,
"W. Dobson, Esq. " ALEX. ADAM and CO."
