NOTICE TO MARINERS.

The annual reports of the Survey previous to 1869 contained many Notices to Mariners in the form of communications from the Superintendent to the Secretary of the Treasury, with requests that authority be given to publish for the benefit of mariners. The separate publications of these notices since 1869 are for general distribution upon request, and are supplementary to the publications formerly made, and still continued, in the leading commercial and nautical journals.
