said, he would beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade, Whether any steps are being taken for blasting Daunt's Rock, or for placing a Light Vessel with Fog Signals, to prevent a recurrence of accidents?

MR. MILNER GIBSON

, in reply, said, there was no intention of blasting Daunt's Rock, or of placing a Light Ship there, but sanction had been given for placing a large bell buoy for warning vessels in foggy weather, and sanction had also been given for improving the Light at Roche's Point, but no further steps had been taken.
