NOTICE TO MARINERS.
PENICHE LIGHTHOUSE.
Office of Committee of Privy Council for Trade,
Whitehall, March 26, 1844.
Sir,—l am directed by the Lords of the Committee
of Privy Council for Trade to transmit to you, for the
information of the Committee of Lloyd's, the inclosed
translation of a notice issued by the Directors of the
Lisbon Custom-house, relative to an alteration in the
Peniehe Lighthouse, which has been received from her
Majesty's Consul at Lisbon.
(Signed) J. M'GREGOR.
To W. Dobson, Esq.
(Translation )
NOTICE TO NAVIGATORS.
Through the Great Custom-house of Lisbon it is
made known, that in order to prevent the inconvenience
arising from the almost complete similarity of rotation
in the mechanism of the Berlengas and Cape Carvociro,
or Peniehe Lighthouses, the motion of the latter has
been altered so as to repeat the brightest light every
thirty seconds, which produces an almost continual
light, and renders the two lighthouses totally distinct
from each other.
