Colonial Treasury, Hongkong, 26th September, 1873.
NOTICE.
C. MAY, Acting Colonial Treasurer.
The Iron Beacon off Messrs. BURROWS' Wharf, Wanchai, has been removed and replaced by two white Conical Buoys, each one marked ROCKS.
In a direct line between these two Buoys is a pinnacle rock with only one foot of water on it at low water springs; House-boats, &c., will therefore do well habitually to avoid passing between the Buoys, and to keep either outside or well inside of both of them.
Harbour Department, Hongkong, 25th September, 1873.
