NOTICE TO MARINERS.

Admiralty, Aug. 14, 1845.
Sir,—l am commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty to transmit to you, for information of the Committee
for managing the affairs of Lloyd's, a copy of a public notice
from her Majesty's Consul at Elsinore relative to the Falsterbo
light vessel.

( Signed) W. A. B. HAMILTON.
To W. Dobson, Esq., Secretary, Lloyd's.
NOTICE.

The Royal Swedish and Norwegian Consulate at Elsinore,
July 22, 1845.
The Royal Naval Department at Stockholm has notified,
for the information of mariners, that the light ship Cyclops
will forthwith resume her station on Falsterbo Reef, and will,
for the first time, again show her light in the evening of the
25th of July of the present year. From the light ship (which
will be moored in six or seven fathoms water) Falsterbo Light-
house will bear N. N. E. I E. (N. 28 deg. E.), with Falsterbo
and Skanor Churches nearly in one line, and Stevens Light
N.N. W. W. (N. 72 deg. W.), all magnetic bearings. Pilots
will be kept on board to pilot vessels (on the signal being
given) through the Flint Channel or to Malmo, as well as to
the grounds and other places where the Danish pilots take
charge of ships ; and to that end a jack will be hoisted on
board the light ship at one of her mast heads, which will be
struck whenever all the pilots shall be out.

GAmusG llousEs.---In the new Act concerning
games and wagers there are several provisions respecting
gaming-houses. In order to remove the difficulties which
have arisen on prosecutions, to prove that the house alleged
was a common gaming-house, it is now .provided, that in the
absence of other evidence it shall be sufficient to show that the
place is kept open or used for playing therein at any un-
lawful game, and that a bank is kept there by one or
more of the players exc'usively of the others, or that the
chances of any game played therein are not alike favourable
to all the players, including among the players the banker
or other person by whom the game is managed, or against
whom the other players stake, play, or bet, and every
such house or place shall be deemed a common gaming-
house. In places out of the jurisdiction of the metropo-
litan police magistrates may issue warrants to officers to
enter houses. Persons keeping gaming-houses, and every
person having the care or management of the same, and also
bankers, croupiers, &c., may now he summarily convicted,
and fined 100/., or sent to prison for six months, and on
non-payment of penalties a warrant of distress levied on
their goods. It shall not be necessary in future to prove
that the persons found playing were playing for any money,
wager, or stake. The Commissioners of Police may autho-
rise a superintendent and constable to enter gaming-houses,
I and to szize all instruments of gaming, and to take into cus-
tody all persons found therein. Search may be made for in-
struments of gaming. In proceedings to be instituted after
the passing of this Act, it shall be sufficient evidence to show
that there were cards, dice, balls, counters, tables, or other
instruments in the room entered, or on the person seized, al-
though no play was actually going on at the time, and all such
things shall be destroyed. Witnesses examined on gambling
transactions are to receive from the magistrates before whom
they are called certificates of indemnification.
Tun SMALL DEI3TS ACT.—The difficulties in either
understanding or following out this incomprehensible and hasty
piece of legislation are only just beginning to develope them-
selves. Yesterday, at the Bankruptcy Court, Mr. Sturgeon
applied for a summons against a debtor, who resided at Hat-
field, some seventeen miles from London, but a difficulty arose
as to the party who was to serve the summons and the amount
of remuneration for his labour, and for his own part he was
free to confess that he did not understand the Act. Mr. Com-
missioner Fonblanque said he should much wish to know who
either did or could understand it ; but, with respect to the ser-
vice of the summonses, that must be done by the officers of this
Court, and the 3s. 4d. (only) allowed for such service must be
increased upon taxation of costs.—[A journey to Hatfield and
back to be per formed for 3s. 4d.11
I.OI`,GLVITY.—There is at present in Glasgow,
where she has been for upwards of 80 years, a woman named
Davidson, a native of Ireland, who is said to have attained the
venerable age of 104. She may be seen begging almost daily
in various parts of the city ; but, although in very poor circum-
stances. she has never received charity from any benevolent in-
stitution. Of course, she is not free from the infirmities at-
tendant on extreme old age, but in other respects she enjoys
tolerable health. She resides in the New Wynd with her
daughter, who is a great-grandmother.—Glaspow Citizen.
