NOTICE TO MARINERS.
Dock-office-, Liverpool, June 30, 1835.
(Ice nearitNos IMPLY BY COMPASS.
THE TRUSTEES of the LIVERPOOL COCKS and
HARBOUR HEREBY GIVE 'NOTICE, that, in ac-
cordance with the recent survey of Captain DaraHAsi, R.N., the
following Improvements in the LIGHTING, BEACONING,
and BUOYING of the Approaches to the ort will be in 14ope-
ration on and after the Night of the Ist of A ust next, viz., ... •
POINT LYNAS LIGHT.---TIIIS Light, hith rto SO situated as
to preclude seeing it seaward, and merely shown by a single re-
flector Upon the long. shore aspects, will be advanced to the pitch
of the point, and exhibited from a castellated building (with
white basement) recently erected thereon, with a powerful,
steady light of the naturel colour, produced by 13 argand lamps
and reflectors, ranging over 211 degrees of the northern and
south-eastern horizon, at an elevation of 128 feet above half-
tide level, reudering it visible in clear weather 6 to 7 leagues
from a ship's deck, or within 1 league of taking up the N.W.-
Light Ship off Liverpool. This Light is so masked for local
inshore effect as to obscure itself when brought eastward of
S.E. I E., which clears the MIDDLE NlousE 1 of a mile, or
northward of N. by W. i W., which clears the Da etas Rocks
I of a mile, and indicating when you ought to tack out of RED
WHARF BAY.
THE FORMBY FLOATING LIGHT will on and after the same
Night show its natural colour with increased power, in lieu of
the Red Light hitherto exhibited.
THE ROCK LIGHTHOUSE will exhibit a Black Ball above its
balcony, whilst 12 feet waterirewains in the " Rock Gut," by day,
and a steady light (from a lower chamber in the western aspect)
will indicate the satne by Night. •
A FLOATING BEACON will be moored in the place of the pre-
sent Fairway Buoy, at the NEw CHANNEL. ENTRANCE, present-
ing a black conical figure, bearing this inscription—" To New
Channel E. ,3, 5.," and surmounted by a large Black Ball, ele-
vated 23 feet, with a self-acting Bell.
New CHANNEL LAND-MARK.—In order to render the line of
leading objects into the New Channel more available in hazy
weather, or accidental absence of the Light Vessel, a dark bulky
frame-work has been erected on the High-water Shore of
Formby, in line of Light-vessel and Light-house.
HOYLAKE LIGHT-110U7SES,—TheS8 Buildings, in order to
distinguish them more effectually from the neighbouring houses,
will henceforth be painted white.
Dove BEACONS.—Two Beacons will appear on Dove Point
instead, of one, affording a leading mark, when brought in line
upon tile bearing of S. by E. for passing between the Dove Spit
and East
.Hoyle, in reference to the eastern entrance of Hoy -
lake.
Tim Buoys will henceforth be distinguished by the initial of
the Channel or Batik they respectively occupy, i. e. F. Formby;
• -C. Crosby; 14. New Channel; HF. Half-tide Swcachway ; H.
..Horse Charinet; HE. Helbre Swokh; .R. Rock Channel; L.
Luke (Hoylake); 13. Beggays Patch; K.. Knotel (Nee-come.)
' They will likewise be numbered in rotation, No. 1. always denot-
ing the outward or seaward Buoy of the Channel its letter indi-
cates, and the turning point or elbow of each Channel will be
distinguished by a Perch BilJy; bearing in'nrincl"that Red Buoys ,I
lie on the atutioard hand, and Black upon the larboard, when
' 'running in.
ADDITIONAL Buoys.—Eighteen additional Buoys will be laid
• down by the above date, (making 56 in all,) and thus disposed:
—one (red) and one (black) tin each. side of the New Channel,
"'between the present Buoys; 'one (red) on the eastern edge of
Jordan Batik, between the present Buoys; one (black) on edge
' of Formby Bank, next northward of Crosby Buoy ; two (black)
on the Low-water edge of Bootle Sands; one (red) on edge of
• " Rip Raps;"
_ one (red) -on edge of Mockbeggar Wharf' - be-
' tween the Dove Spit and West Wharf Buoys; one (black and
white).on west end of Beggar's Patch; two-(red) on the east
- edge of Hoyle Bank, within the present Buoys. tire (red and
white) on the west side of Helbre Swatch; two (black) on east
aide of ditto; one (white with black stripe) showing the fairway
of Half-tide Sa-atchway, one mile westward of Formby fairway
• Buoy; one (red) on the edge of Hoyle, in Hoylake, abreast of
the church; and a black (nun) Buoy (marked K. 1.) upon that
part of the shoal now called NEWCOME KNOWL, which has
lately grown up so as to have but 14 feet water upon it at Low-
• water Springs. This Buoy bears from the N. W. 'Light Ship
E. i S. 21 miles, and from the New Channel Floating Beacon
5.5. W. i W. 2 miles.
The whole of the foregoing will be clearly shown and explained
in the forthcoming completed edition of Captain Denham's Sur-
rey, of which the Dock Trustees published an Extract Chart
• last year tinder sanction of the Right Hon. the Lords Commis-
sioners of the Admiralty.
•• By order of the Liverpool Dock Committee,
' . . H. M. DEN LIAM,
Marine Surveyor to the Dock Trustees.
N.B.—The Navigation of the Port will be further assisted by
an arrangement which will enable the Light-vessels to act as
Telegraphs, whereby Ships' Nue-bers or Casualties will be more
seemly transferred to the Town.

Dtscavrtm—There are many more shining qualities in the
of map, but there is none more useful than discretion; it
is this which gives a value to all the rest, which sets them at
work in their proper times and places, and turns them to the
.advantage of the person who is possessed of them. Without it,
learning is pedantry, and wit impertinence; virtue itself looks
like weakness; the best parts only qualify a man to be more
sprightly in his errors, and active to his own prejudice.—Addi-

LAW MAKING.-.--The following is extracted from a clever
• -work called the Machinery of law making, and affords an admir-
'able specimen of satire upon the verboseness of legal forms :-
1 • ' If a man would, according to law, give to another an orange,
instead of saving. 11 give you that orange,' which one would
' think would be what is called iu legal phraseology, 'an absolute
conveyance of all right and title threin,' the phrase would run
thus I give you all and singular my estate and interest, right,
title, and claim, and advantage of and in that orange, with all
it. rind; skin, juice, pulp, and pips, and all right and advantages
therein, with Intl power to bite, cut, suck, and otherwise eat the
suite, or give the same away, as fully and effectually as I the.
said A 13 am now entitled to bite, cut, suck, or otherwise eat the
same orange, or give the same away, with or without its rind,
skin, juice, pulp, and pips,. anything heretobefore or hereinafter,
Ir in any other deed or deeds; instrument or instt uments, of what
• • nature or kind soever, to the coutrarYin any wise notwithstand-
ing;' with much more to the same effect. Such is the language
44 lawyers; and it iekven3ngravely held by the most learned me
among thew, that by the' omission of any of these words the
right to the said orange Would not pass to the person for whose
:‘use the same was intended."
COLONEL LINDSAY AND TOS
whig and radical papers, as is their wont on all sutb occasions,
• have raised an outcry against the appointment of Colonel Lind-
say to the command of the Fifeshira militia—an appointment
proposed by the lord lieutenant of the county, and, therefore,
its a matter of course, approved by his majesty, and sanctioned
by the government. Al} parties come in fur a share'of the whig-
radical vituperator, King, lord lieutenant, government, and
Colonel Lindsay himself. And what is the charge? Not that
the gallant officer is not one of the best qualified persons in the
. county for such an appointment. but that 'a -partizan of the
ministry has not been selected ! We are not disposed to den
that civil offices ought to be filled with some regard to such feel-
ings, at least it is not unreasonable that they should; but hitherto
the army has been five from such a system of favouritism. We
Fay that it may loug be so, otherwise the right arm of the court-
. try will be at once unstrung. Let it be observed what would be
the consequence of following the suggestions of the whig-radical
prints iu this matter. They desire that Captain Weinyas should
be appointed, because he expended some money (?) in obtain-
ing his election; in other ite.her words, that a military appoint-
ment should be given to a naval officer, in repayment for his
having obtained a seat in parliament. What is this but the
basest corruption, without a particle of excuse for its infamy of
motive ?-I....dinburgh Evening Post, [Should it be necessary
while the present ministers are in power to embody an army to
act offensively or defensively, according to this rule Colonel
Williams of the Lancashire (we forget what) should be prefer-
' red to the llake of Wellington, or any of the heroes of the
peninsular
AN AGE OF INVERSION.-The following remarks, made 35
years ago by that accomplished lady, Hannah More, are won-
erfully applicableto the preseut times, politically and spin..
Wally an age when inversion is the order of the day. the
modern idea of improvement does not consist in altering, but•
extirpating. We do not reform but subvert. We do not cor-
rect old systems, but demolish them—fancying that when every
thing shall be new, it will be perfect. Not to have been wrong,
but to have been, at all, is the crime. Excellence is no longer
considered as an experimental thing, which is to grow gradually
out of observation and practice, and to be iniproved by the ac-
. cumulating additiens brought by the wisdom of successive
Ages. Our wisdom is not a child perfected by gradual growth—
but a goddess, which starts at once, full grown, mature, armed
-cap-a-pie, from the heads of our modern thunderers. Or
tathetaif. I may change the' allusion, a perfect system is now
expected. inevitably to spring at once,' like the fabled bird of
Arehia,"frOm the ashes of its parent, and c-n receive its birth
lact other way but by the•destruction of its predecessor. Instead
of cleaning away what is redundant, pruning what is cumber-
some, supplying what is'erefective; and amending what is
tßiong,—we adopt thetjmiefinite rage for radical reform of
3ack, who, in altering Lord Peter's coat, showed his zeal by
crying out, " Tear away, brother Martin, for the love of
Heaven ; never mind, as you do but tear away."—H. More's
