A BEACON ON BEMER ROCK.—Scaffolding
is at present erecting for placing a beacon on this rock.
The builder is, we believe, the well-known Mr. King-
horn. Certainly there is not in the whole Frith any
rock which stands more in need of something to warn the
mariner of its proximity, as within but a few years eight
or ten vessels have gone upon it, suffering much damage.
