_Dr. Edward Daniel Clarke's Charts of the Black Sea_ (Vol. ix.,
p. 132.).--A reply respecting these important Charts, and their value, was
given by the First Lord of the Admiralty in the House of Commons on March
6, in consequence of an inquiry made by Mr. French. Sir James Graham {457}
is stated by _The Times_ of the following day to have said on that
occasion:
"The Charts alluded to by the hon. gentleman were most valuable, and
had been made use of; but subsequent observations, and farther surveys,
had in a great measure superseded them at the present time."
