Enclosed is the memorandum of the situation bt
the several shoals, rocks islands, and dangers, not laid

The principal part of them 1 have collected from

observation. Thinking it would be for the greater
safety of navigators to have them published tojrotb-

Nautical Information,
National Observatory, /
Washinoton. February 19, 1850. J
Sirs—Captain Pnrsous, of the ship Amity, ol Boston,
reports that on the 22d of August last, being then
bound, from Manilla to Boston, lie discovered ana
bei\t through a passage among the Thousand Islands.
Although these islands are at tho eastern entrance
to tho Straits of Sunda, and, therefore in one of the
great thoroughfares of the ocean, there is no accurate
survey of them, and tho position usslgned them oi
tho charts is of doubtful accuracy. , , , | es s
Captain Parsons determined tho lattitude ot n
middle of tlie passage by a meriiliun nlntuuo o
sun, and its longitude by bearings from the > •
Watcher. They are 5 deg. 26 miu. 8., 10b deg. .17
m For farther Information concerning this
discovery, I nmkc the following extract ol.Captain
Parson's letter to me, with the remark that Oapt.

with the islands in heating through C:i botli Bides.
This passage, from the eastward, runs about 3 miles,
east and west, and S. W. 2 miles clcurs the passage
altogether. The reefs which extend from these isl-
innis generally run east and west, and can be ap
proached within a quarter of a mile. Soundings will

on tlie starboard hand. After getting through, saw the
passage mentioned by LieUtenunt Harding of the
British Royul Navy, who passed through it July 19,

ClovER, Eng., Jan. 15,—"The Piasters of vessels
coining from the westward, nnd bound to the Thames
and Medway, are subject to heavy penalties if they do
not hoist the usual signul for a pilot, on arriving oil'
Dungeness, nnd keep it displayed until tlie ship lias
passed the South Buoy of the Brake, unless in the
meantime a duly qualified Cinque Ports pilot should
have come on hoard. Masters uro particularly warn
ed to keep their jacks flying, although they may have
taken a boatman on hoard, and engaged his boat and
crew to procure a pilot from the shore. The pilot
cutters show a large groen light during the night, and
display a flare up every 15 munites.
“N. B.—There are now no licensed boatmen ; their
licenses have been long since revoked, and the act. au
thorising their b«ing granted repealed. Masters
should avoid being imposed upon by any peraons pre
tending to have licenses.
“Masters should, on no occount, pay the shipping
money to the boot’s crew, but iu every case to the
pilot only, or they will have to pay it twice. And it
has been decided in several coses, by the judge of the
County Court in Dover and Deal, that although the
boat’s crew may have received tho shipping money,

With this Preparation, “there is no such word
as fail.” ■ The first journal in America, medi
cal men of the highest eminence, prominent citi
zens of all professions, nnd indies who have used
it for years, in their dr.-ssing rooms nnd nur
series, admit with one accord, that, for impart
ing vigor, gloss, luxuriance and curl to the hair
eradicating scurf and dandruff', healing wounds
curing contusions, sprains, stings, &cand re
lieving diseases of the skin, the glundsy and tlie
muscles, it. has no equal among the multitude
of compounds advertised-in the public prints,
or used in privnte practice. In cheapness ns
well as efficacy, Barry’s Tfriconherous is un
rivalled. The immense cosh sales of tho urti-
cle, have enabled the inventor to supply it at
retnil^at 25 cents per bottle, which is from fifty
to one hundred per cent less, than the price of
any other preparation lor the hair now in use.
The scientific trca.ise on tlie hair and the skin,
(embracing valuable directions for the culture
and preservation ot Nature’s choicest orna
ment,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is
alone worth tho money.
The affinity between the membranes which
constitute the skin,-and the hair which draws its
sustenance from this triple envelope, is very
close All diseases of the hair originate in the
skin of the head. If tha pores of the scalp
are clogged, or if the blood anil other fluids do
not circulate freely through the small, vessels
which feed thc^ roots with moisture, and im
part life t<®the fibres, the result is scurf, duud-
(ufT, shedding of their hair, grayness, dryness,
and harshness of the ligaments, and entire
baldness, us the case may be. Stimulnto the
skin to healthful action, with the Tricopherous,
and the torpid vessels, recovering their activity,
will annihilate the disease. In all affections of
the skin, nnd of the substratu of muscles and
integumcntlf, the process und the effect are -.he
same. It is upon the skin, tliemusculur fibres,
and the glands, that the Tricopherous lias its
specific action, nnd in all Attentions nnd injuries
of these organs, it is a sovereign remedy.

'' HE YOUTH’S FRIEND.
S OME months since the undersigned pro
posed to publish a series of pamphlets en
titled Humble Efforts. From a variety of
causes, their publication wns postponed, and
alteva considerable delay, acting under the
advice of some of her friends, she has conclud
ed to change her origii al intention, and issued
monthly journal, of moderate size, quarto form,
entitled the Youth’s Friend. It will be what
its name indicates. We are not proposing to
publish a journal of large pretensions, either
as to the size of its pages, or the ability of its
contents. Having long been engaged in teach
ing tlie young of the gentle sex, we flatter our
self that we know something of their moral
and intellectual wants. Our object is mainly
to aitl the young mind in its search after in
tellectual and moral nutriment, as well in the
paths of sober wisdom, as tho more brilliant
paterres of sparkling literature. While aid
ing to find the gems of the latter, wo would
from the Book of Nature and Revelation,
draw lqsaons to charm and decorate it with
the inspiration which alone enn give it immortal
bloom.
The Youth's Friend will be made up of lit
erary and scientific essays and items, moral,
instructive, und pleasing tales, original and se
lected; beautiful poetry, &c., as well as edi
torials, usual in works of the character pro
posed. We have tho promise of contribu
tions from scveralvfliose efforts cannot fail to
please ; and sA far as our ability and exiytions
can muke it u*efu nnd attractive, they will he
unremittingly exerted;'-
But we need not enlarge. It.will Se seen that
our pages are intended prineiptfUy for tho young;
still, we trust tlmt they will contain much worthy
of tho consideration of those more advanced in
life. While we frankly udtpit that we should be
gratified with a suitable reward for our labors,
we cannot and must not loose sight of ^he great
hope of doing good. With becoming modesty
and deference, we submit our frail Literary'
Barque to the waves of public opinion, with un
expression of the hope lliotitrnuy meet n favor
able reception.
Wo tender our grateful acknowledgments
to the many kind friends who became patrons of
our “Humble Efforts," and trust that they mav
be pleased with the “Youth’s Friend.”
It will be issued monthly, in quarto form of eight
pages, nt $1 per annum, in advance. As tlie 1st
number will be forthcoming about the first of
February, we would be greatly obliged tn all
those who may wish to receive it, to send in their
names as early ns possible. W. C. TYSON.

A WORD TO OUR FRIENDS
We cannot suffer the present opportunity

and it is this—send nil of your friends nnd your
friends’ friends to see us—tell them that our stock
