NORTHERN LIGHTHOUSES. - NOTICE
TO MARINERS.—WHALSEY SKERRIES, SHET-
LAND, TEMPORARY LIGHTHOUSE.
The COMMISSIONERS Of NORTHERN LIGHTHOUSES here?
by give Notice, that they are at present engaged in erecting
a LIGHTHOUSE on the OUT-SKERRIES Of WHALSEY, on the
Eastern Coast of the SHETLAND ISLES, and that, until the
completion of the permanent LIGHTHOUSE, a Light will be•
shown from a temporary Tower, and will be exhibited for the
first time on the night of FRIDAY, the Isth September, and
every night thereafter, from the going away of daylight in
the Evening till the return of daylight in the Morning.
The following is a Specification of the Lighthouse, and the
Appearance of the Livid, by Mr. DAVID STEVENSON, En-
gineer to the Commissioners :
The LIGHTHOUSE is situated on the Eastern part of the
ISLAND of GRUNA, in N. Lat. 60. 25' 24", and W. Lon. 04
44' 20n, the Bound Skerry of Whalsey bearing from the Light-
house about E. by compass. The outer or seaward extremity
of the Bound Skerry is about half-a-mile, or thereby, from
the site of the Lighthouse, so that Vessels in rounding the
Light must give it a wide berth.
The WHALSEY LIGHT will be known to Mariners as a
REVOLVING LIGHT, which shows a bright White Light
once in every minute.

TIMBER

The temporary Light will be exhibited from a Tower of
Timber Framework, and is' elevated about 108 feet above the
level of high-water of ordinary spring tides, and may be seen
at the distance of about 16 nautic miles, and at lesser dis-
tances, according to the state of the atmosphere. To a near
observer, in favourable circumstances, the Light will not
wholly disappear between the intervals of greatest brightness.

The COMMISSIONERS further give Notice, that, by order
in Council, dated the 3rd day of July last, the following Tolls
are authorised to be levied in respect of the said Lighthouse,
namely

For every Vessel belonging to the United Kingdom (the
same not belonging to Her Majesty, her heirs, or successors,
nor being navigated wholly in ballast), and for every Foreign
Vessel privileged to enter the Ports of the United Kingdom
upon paying the same Duties of Tonnage as are payable by
British Vessels which may pass pr derive benefit from the

ASPINALL'S EAST INDIA PALE ALE.-
The demand for this fine-flavoured ALE is greatly on
the increase, Merchants, Bottlers, and Hotel-keepers finding
it equal in flavour, colour, and quality, to the finest Burton-
brewed Ales, and at prices very considerably less than Rny
similar Ale now on the Market. It is warranted to keep
sound in Wood or Bottle for years, and never changes its bril-
liancy of colour. It improves by long keeping. Hogsheads,
Barrels, Half-barrels, and Quarter-barrels always in Stock,
for Home Use and Exportation.

ri ARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
Mlf PAINT, specially patronised by the British, French,
Russian, and Sicilian Governments, the Hon. East India Com-
pany, the New River Company, the principal Dock Companies,
and other Public Bodies.
The ANTI-CORROSION PAINT has been used by the
Hon. Board of Ordnance for upwards of half a century, who
have proved it to prevent rust or corrosion on Iron longer
and better than the very best White Lead, or any other de-
scription of Paint; and in consequence of its possessing this
invaluable quality, all the Iron Guns and Gun Carriages, both
for land and sea service, have been painted with it for the
above period. It has also been used in great quantities by
other public bodies, and by numbers of Gentlemen of the
first distinction, to preserve Wooden Houses, Farm and other
Outbuildings, Conservatories, Park Paling, Gates, Iron Rail-
ing, Iron Hurdles, Copper, Zinc, Lead, old Compo, &c.,
Fronts and Tiles to represent Slating. It will be found a very
superior preservative of Iron Steamboats, Iron Bridges,
Piers, or any other extensive Iron Works. _

This Paint is admirably adapted for preventing the decay
of old stone or brie] Mansions, Churches, or other Public
Edifices requiring an effectual defence against the elements.
It is particularly recommended to West India and other Co-
lonial Proprietors, Emigrants, and all persons connected with
the Colonies, who will find it to stand all climates better than
any other Paint. The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to
any other Paint may be easily inferred from the simple fact
that its use has been always most strenuously opposed by
Colour Manufacturers and others interested in the sale of
Common Paint.

Noblemen and Landed Proprietors, anxious to have their
Outbuildings, &c., properly preserved, will effect a very con-
siderable saving by desiring their Stewards to order the Anti-
Corrosion Paint, as any labourer can lay it nn, thereby saving
the enormous charges generally made by painters.
The Anti-Corrosion is a powder, and it will keep any length
of time. Colours : White stone, light stone, drab, or Portland
stone, Bath stone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark
oak, brown, light and dark lead, light and dark chocolate,
bright and dark red, copper, and black, Us. per cwt. ; invisi-
ble green, 50s. ; bright green, 60s. ; deep green, 60s. ; and blue

OIL and TURPENTINE, at per Gallon.

TO LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.—J. GORSUCH, HAIR-CUTTER, PERFUMER, and ORNA3IENTAL
HAIR MANUFACTURER, No. 7, PARKER-STREET, begs most respectfully to thank his Patrons for the liberal
support whichhe has received during the time he has been in business ; and begs most respectfully to ask the favour of
parties visiting to be kind enough to make early application, so that they can be waited upon punctually, as the establishment

extraordinary qualities for producing hair excels anything of the kind ever produced. Also his MILK OF ALMONDS, one of
the most delightful and cleansing Washes for dressing and imparting a glossy luxuriant appearance discovered, as the extract
is divested of all those drying gdalities which have been so much complained of in all Hair Washes. A large assortment of
PERFUMERY, BRUSHES, COMBS, &c. &c. Families and Boarding-schools attended.
Mr. G. consulted personally on all cases on the Decay of the Human Hair.

EOLIAN VENTILATOR lIAT,
(6 AND 7 Vic., CAP. 65),
LONDON, 31sT OCTOBER, 1655.
The want of a properly Ventilated and Easy-fitting Hat, particularly since the introduction of the Silk Hats into general
use, has given rise to many seeming improvements. The Inventors and Patentees of the EOLIAN VENTILATOR HAT
have succeeded on the correct principle of Ventilation, by forming an Air Channel immediately around the head, permitting
a current of air to pass from thence through and out at the top of the Hat ; and the design may be applied to erery variety
of shape worn, without infringing the light appearance so necessary to a becoming Hat.—See Practical Mechanics' Journal,
Ist August, 1853, (date of Provisional Protection).
In directing attention to this new andvery desirable Spring and Summer Hat we respectfully invite an inspection, when
its utility will be most apparent, and its general style best understood.
