Wellington, March 24.—The following notices to mariners appear in the Gazette :— " With reference to notice to mariners, No. 43, of 17th December, 1890, it is hereby notified that the lower of the two beacons erected on the slope of the North Head eastward of the lighthouse at the entrance to Kaipara Harbour, being carried away by the encroachment of the sea, and that as the sea is still causing the hillside to fall away, no definite time can be given for its re-erec-tion." " With reference to the notice to mariners. No. 2, of the Ist lilt., it is hereby notified that Captain Fairchild lias carefully sounded the passage between Jackson's Head and Beacon Rock at the entrance to Queen Charlotte Sound, and that there is a narrow channel in the middle of the passage, with four and a-quarter fathoms at low water; but that a little nearer to Jackson's Head than the mid-channel there are three rocks with only three fathoms on them ; and that a little nearer to Beacon Rock than the midchannel there are only two and three-quarter fathoms. Under these circumstances, and owing to the strong tides rendering it difficult to keep exactly in tho middle passage, Captain Fairchild considers it should not be used by vessels drawing over 12 feet of water," H.M.S. DART. H.H.s. Dart arrived at Hobartfrom Sydney on the 10th instant. She left Sydney on the 4th instant, and the next morning experienced a heavy easterly gale with high sea. Anticipating bad weather, everything was made fast and the hatches battened down. The decks were swept continually with heavy quantities of water. All sails were reefed down. At noon on the 6th the weather had moderated somewhat, when the Dart had crossed Bass Straits, and the wind veered round to N.W. light. At midnight a fresh W. breeze sprang up. The sea ran mountains high, and tumbled on board the vessel from all quarters. At 5 p.m. the middle jibsail was blown to ribbons, and one of the starboard whaleboats was smashed in. The boat was almost washed away, as it is it will need extensive repairs. The weather all down the Tasmanian coast was bad, and not change until the Dart had rounded Cape Raoul and entered the Dorwent. While in Sydney the Dart has been refitted and overhauled from keel to truck. She will remain in Hobart until about the middle of April. While in Sydney the Dart went for a trial spin the day she left. Everything worked satisfactorily, the engines running with exceptional smoothness.
