GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.

W. T. MERCER, Colonial Secretary.

The subjoined Extract from the Log-book of the Steam Ship Ottawa has been received from the Superintendent of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, and is published for ge-

neral information.

It denotes the position of a Shoal in the Palawan Passage which is not laid down in the Chart. Captain Gribble of the Ottawa is of opinion that this is the Viper Shoal, the position of which is marked in the Chart as doubtful.

"STEAM SHIP “Ottawa,” 6th December, 1860."

"2.45 P.M. sighted from the mast-head broken water on the port bow, having every appearance of being a Shoal about half a cable's length in extent from East to West, with no indication of shoal water near it. When abeam at 3 P.M. it was two or three miles distant from the ship, and was then just visible from the deck.

"Position of Ship at 3 P.M., Lat. 7° 14' N., Long. 115° 7′ 15′′ E. Position of Shoal, Lat. 7° 16' N., Long. 115° 05′ E."

By Order,

W. T. MERCER, Colonial Secretary.
