night and two in the day and crossed in diff
ieIeni courses, taking correct sounding, the
latitude 10 which tue South Shnal has bereto-
fore been laid down. They are thoroughly
convinced Of the correctness of the recent sur

doubts respecting them, particularly Captain

COMMERCIALLY IMPORTANT.
The King Of Portugal, has recently put in
force the following regulation
That the manifest Of the cargo, bills Of Ia
ding, and custom house clearance, should be
accompanied by certificate Of their authenti-
city, from the Portuguese consul Of the district
from whence the vessel shall have taken her de-
parture these papers must be attached togeth-
err, numbered, and countersigned by the consul,
so as TO prevent the possibility Of substitution,
and the whole must be addressed bv him (under
coycr) to the Judge Of the custom housc Of the
port to which the vessel may be destined. It is
provided, that in case Of there being no Portn-
guese consul in the district, from whence the
vessel shall depart, the papers before mentioned
must be duly authenticated by the highest Off
Ger in the Custom House Department, and the
fact of there being no Portuguese consul in that
district. also certified BY him. The non observ-
ance of these regulations, will prevent any YES
sci from being admitted to an entry, in any Of
| the custom houses in the Azores.
