" Ste—For the infornuition of Lloyd's, I have to isespisint you,
tbat the Burning Light-haute, which w.sa sstablished in the year
1815, on die Cape Llativaneni, in the Guiph of Finland, has
proved of little use, because ships &merrily navigate from Narita,
between landslier and stensher, and toe navigation being in
greater dillicwity on she extremity of the south she of the bland
of Hugland, and it frequently happening, during the Autumn,
the superior Light-holm of tiogland to vet to be seen in matey
weather ; to avoid, ti erefore all danger, the Light of Liativa-
nem us iiMsferred to the Island of liodsher, situated nine Italian
miles to the Web( of Hogsand. The light of this Lighthouse will
he tin Peet above the water, and will appear and disappear as on
the'Clipe Liam/morn every 45 seeundsrur once event titreeivar•
lets of a minute, which turning. will distinguish her from the
near situated Liglit-tionse of Hogland; and this sew Light-hoese
will begin to be lighted from the lit (13th) bur. (Signed)
