ISEFJORD.

The fishermen at Lyenas, and in the neighbourhood,
shall be permitted, until further notice, to keep a lamp
burning on Spotsbjerb, at the entrance to the Isetsord,
from the Ist September to the Ist November. This light,
which will be visible at sea in the direction from E.N.E.
to W.S.W., at a distance of about two leagues, will be
shown for the first time on the Ist September of this
year, and will be kept burning within the aforesaid time,
for the same length of time as the other lights in the
kingdom.

LIGHT-SHIP OFF FALSTERBO REEF.
The Royal Marine Department gives notice, and
makes known to mariners, agreeably to their notice of
the 7th of July last year, that the light-ship therein
mentioned will be ready for taking her berth on Fats-
terbo Reef at the end of this, or the beginning of next,
month. The light-ship has two masts, its sides are
painted red ; the two letters F S very large, and painted
white, being displayed on either ; a red flag is hoisted
on the foretop, and at night two lights will be shown
which will be so placed that the one cannot easily con-
ceal the other, so that when the vessel is seen from a
side, both lights will be distinctly visible, or when seen
from ahead or from astern, the one light will be seen
close above the other. The highest lamp Is on the
foretop.
These lights will be kept burning from the middle of
September to the Ist December (when the light-ship
will be removed), for the same length of time each night
as is prescribed for the rest of the Swedish lights. The
light-ship will be moored in 6 fathoms water, a good
minute from the furthermost point of Falsterbo Reef
(vide Admiral Klint's sea chart), from whence the light-
house on Falsterbo will bear N.E. by the compass at six
minutes distance, and when the light on Stern's Klint
in Zealand will show itself W.N.W. W. by compass.
The light-ship will also be provided with a large bell,
which will be rung in thick and foggy weather, in order
to warn the shipping near. The lights are fixed about
fifty feet above the level of the sea, and will therefore be
visible in clear weather at a distance of more than two
German miles.
Shipmasters wanting a pilot through the Flint Channel
to Alaimo], or to tho Grounds, where Danish pilots
attend, can obtain one from the light-ship, on board
of which five pilots will be stationed for that purpose,
who will bo on the watch, day and night, for signals.
To this end the light-ship will be so moored that the
largest ship may, without danger, sail round it and take
in a pilot, and the pilot-jack will be hoisted so long as
there shall bo a pilot disposable on board, but will be re-
moved whenever all the pilots tore absent.
Unless the contrary be known, and unless prevented
by the ice, the light-ship will resume her station on the
same point of the Reef on the 15th of March next.

ROBBERIES IN IRE TEMPLB.—Various depreda-
tions have been recently committed in chambers situated
within the precincts of the Middle and Inner Temple ;
and still more attempts, though fortunately in some in-
stances fruitless ones, have been made to break into
others. Tho long vacation appears to be the harvest-
time for these gentry, the absence of such numbers of
the occupants of chambers during that period, giving
great facilities for these daring outrages, and decreasing
the risk of detection or opposition. On Wednesday
morning it was discovered that a bold, but unsuccessful,
attempt had been made to break into a set of chambers
situated on the third floor of No. 1, of the Middle Tem-
ple Cloisters. A small bar that fastened the outer door
of these chambers, and which was remarkably strong,
was found ha the morning of that day to have been com-
pletely wrenched :off and taken away. The intending
robber then appears to have tried to force the door, or
to drive back the bolt of the lock ; but the locksmith
had in this instance provided materials too strong and
too well arranged to be thus opened, and the burglarious
attempt utterly failed, and the villain went off unre-
warded for his labour. Many such attempts have been
made within a short time in the same neighbourhood.
Surely, with the great member of wattbmen employed
in all parts of the Temple, and the guard kept at the
gates as soon as evening sets in, property ought not thus
to be exposed to such depredators. The evil has got to
a great height, and it is quite time steps should be
adopted more stringent, if possible, than those at present
taken to render property Secure.
A Flux CHURCH IN ENGLAND. Encouraged by
the appearances of success which have attended the ef-
forts of the Free Church Seceders from the Scotch Esta-
blishment, a party of gentlemen in the diocese of Exe-
ter, entertaining
.low Church principles, have deter-
mined upon opeeing a church in that city which shall
be entirely independent, so far as all matters of
discipline are at least concerned, of the Bishop. This
new free Episcopal Church is situate very near to the
parish church of St. Olave's, Exeter, and is about to
be solemnly opened (as we have been informed).
The clergymen who are to officiate, and who must be
supposed to have seceded from the Church, although
th©y still hold their preferments, are the Rev. H. B.
Bulteel, late Fellow and Tutor of Exeter College, Ox-
ford ; the Rev. James Shore, of Bridetown ; and the
Rev. W. Cowie. They have issued a lengthened ad-
dress, from which the following is an extract :—" It has
lon
manyell who are attached to the Pro-
testant
as to the Episcopal order scru-
pulously administered, that for the preservation and in-
crease of evangelical religion in these days of revived
superstition and arrogant assumption, it is highly de-
sirable to attempt the formation of an Episcopal
Church, distinct from the Established Church, on a
sufficiently comprehensive basis to effect the union of
general believers in Christ, who may not object to Epis-
copal discipline, though otherwise differing on other
important points.—Church and State Gazette.

THE MILITIA.—A ballot will take place this autumn
to complete the English and Scotch militias, for which
purpose it is expected an Order in Couneill will forth-
with be issued.
