FROM the Number of Alterations and Additions returned weekly into, this Office, it is necessary that the Register-Books should he posted every Week; and an Arrangement has been made in the Office for that Purpose. It is therefore requested that the Members will be particular in delivering their Books when called for, and they may depend upon having them returned on the ensuing Day. Any complaint of the Register not being called for, or returned in proper time when posted, is reques: 1 to be communicated to the Office, in writing, that the Gommittee may be made acquainted therewith. It is also requested that Members leaving Town, and not having Occasion to use their Books, will be pleased to leave them at this Office, where they will be kept regularly posted, and ready for Delivery when wanted. The Committee likewise request the Subscribers will not leave their Register about Lloyd's Rooms, as several Books have been lost by that means, and the number of Books prepared being limited, it may not be in the power of the Committee to furnish others in the place of those so lost. Any Communication, with Respect to Imperfections in the Register, Ships not appearing thereon, or such as are undergoing Repairs, &c. will receive immediate Attention. Registry-Office of Shipping, No. 4, Castle Court, Birchin-Lane, January 1, 1830. REGISTER ОР Shipping FOR THE YEAR 1830. INSTITUTED ANNO 1760. LONDON: PRINTED, FOR THE SOCIETY FOR THE REGISTRY OF SHIPPING, BY W. MARCHANT, INGRAM-COURt, fenchurCH-STREET. 1830. Lloyd's Registry of Shipping, CASTLE-COURT, BIRCHIN-LANE. JANUARY, 1830. THE COMMITTEE beg leave to remind the SUBSCRIBERS, that when this Society was established, in the year 1760, the Annual Subscription was Twelve Guineas. At the end of Half a Century their funded Property having increased to £12,000 Stock, the Price of the Book was reduced one-third, viz. from Twelve to Eight Guineas; but the Expenses for the last Twenty Years have exceeded the Income by nearly £500 per Annum, and the Stock now remaining amounting to only £2000, the COMMITTEE are under the necessity of raising the Price of the Book this Year to Ten Guineas. Nearly Ten Thousand Vessels are surveyed every Year; the Expense of Survey, by competent Judges, cannot be reduced under the present Salaries, which exceed £1000 per Annum, rather under 2s. 1d. each Vessel.
