as Her Majesty may deem reasonable, and may from time to time alter the amount thereof; and that such dues shall be paid and collected in the same manner, by the same means, and subject to the same conditions in, by, and subject to which the light dues authorized to be levied by the said Act are paid and collected. And whereas, the Corporation of the Trinity House of Deptford Strond has placed a new light-vessel on the west side of the Outer Dowsing Shoal, off the coast of Lincolnshire, on the North Sea, and a light is already exhibited therein.

Now, therefore, Her Majesty, in exercise of the powers vested in Her by the said recited Act, by and with the advice of Her Privy Council, is pleased to direct that there shall be paid, in respect of the said light-vessel, for every vessel which, pursuant to the consolidated tables of light dues approved by Her Majesty by an Order in Council made in pursuance of the said Act, and dated the 26th day of June, 1855,* shall become liable to the charge for the Dudgeon Light (except any vessel passing to or from any of the ports of Boston, Wisbeach, Lynn, Wells, Clay, and Blakeney, from or to any port to the southward), in the case of an oversea voyage, the toll of 3-16ths of 1 penny per ton, of the burthen of every such vessel, if British or Foreign, and privileged to enter the ports of the United Kingdom, upon paying the same duties as are payable by British vessels, and the toll of 6-16ths of 1 penny per ton of the burthen of every such vessel if Foreign, and not privileged, in manner hereinbefore mentioned, and, in the case of a coasting voyage, the toll of 1-16th of 1 penny per ton of the burthen of any such vessel, whether British or Foreign; and for every vessel passing from or to any port in the Humber to or from any port in the Eyder, or south of it, to Norden, the toll of 3-16ths of 1 penny per ton of the burthen of every such vessel if British or Foreign, and privileged in manner herein before mentioned, and the toll of 6-16ths of 1 penny per ton of the burthen of every such vessel, if Foreign, and not privileged, in manner herein before mentioned: provided always, that the several tolls herein before directed to be paid shall be payable once only for the whole voyage out and home; but a single passage, whether coastwise or oversea, shall subject a vessel to the full dues, and a vessel having paid inwards on a coasting voyage shall not be exempt if she proceed outwards with an oversea cargo. And that the said tolls, in respect of the said light-vessel shall be levied by the Corporation of the Trinity House of Deptford Strond subject to the gross abatement or discount of 60 per cent. on vessels engaged in oversea voyages, and of 60 per cent. on vessels engaged in coasting voyages mentioned in an Order in Council made under the authority of the said recited Act, and dated the 25th day of July, 1861,† and subject also to the regulations and exemptions contained in the consolidated tables of the light duties sanctioned by an Order in Council, * See Vol. 10, Page 324. See Page 768.

And whereas it has been made to appear to Her Majesty that the said rates do not exceed the rates specified in Schedule A of the "Burgh Harbour (Scotland) Act, 1853," and that the same are proper and reasonable.
