Of errors in chronometers, the Bev. James Pearson, F.8.A.5., Fleetwood, writes as follows :—" The following rules which are praotieally applied by masters of vessels using chronometers at sea, but whieh are not to be found in any of the works on navigation, it is desirable to have printed for their convenience: —I. If to the time shown at any instant by a chrccomcter the addition or subtraction of the error of the instrument gives a time which is in advance of the true Greenwich time, the ship is thereby placed west of its true position. If it gives a time which is behind the true Greenwich time, the ahip is east of its true position. 2. Now if the chronometer be slow of true Greenwich time, its error msst of course be added, and therefore if its assumed rate is too large, the ship is placed west of its true position ; if too small, it is placed east. 3. Bat if the chronometer be fast of true Green wi oh time, its en or must ba subtracted, and therefore in this case, if its assumed rate is too large, the ship is placed east of its true position; if too small, it is pieced west.
