HARBOUR OF REFUGE IN THE BRISTOL CHANNEL.--
The need of a suitable harbour of refuge for the shipping
frequenting the Bristol Channel, having been brought
under the notice wf the Leisglature, has called forth ap-
plications from several localities. A breakwater in St.
Ive's Bay is recommended by the Cornish people, while
the Bristol Chamber of Commerce is in favour of a
harbour at Clovellv. The coasts of the Channel have
been surveyed by Capt. Claxton, R.N. The inhabitants
of Swansea have set forth the claims of the Mumbles to
a breakwater, which they state would rt rider the splen•
did bay of Swansea a safe refuge harbour.
