北華捷報1868的評論

江海關稅務司費士來（G. H. Fitz-Roy）曾在1866-04臨時就任署理總稅務司（Acting Inspector General），成功地向總理衙門強調了照亮長江入口的必要性。總理衙門隨後指示撥付36,000平銀用於長江河口建設燈塔。(*1)

在徵求各方意見後，大戢山（Gutzlaff）和花鳥山（North Saddle）被選為燈塔所在地；以及長江入口處現有的九段燈塔得到改進、九段標杆（Kintoan Beacon）掛燈。(*2)

此結果被視為表明清政府願意履行其船鈔支出方面的義務，以及人們希望赫德復職後能延續先前的成功。我們不知道他是否曾經嘗試這樣做，除北京以外，其他地區的居民都無法獲得任何有關此事的資訊。

有傳言說總稅務司赫德已經成功地對使用船鈔提出了主張，傳聞還補充說，應他的要求，英國皇家海軍的一艘勘測船起草了一份報告，指出了沿海幾個地點建造燈塔的最佳位置。但我們尚未聽說已採取任何後續行動，相反地，我們從傳聞中得知，他已下令暫停實施照亮長江入海口的計畫。(*3)

這件事看起來如此奇怪，我們原本應該猶豫是否相信，但一座燈塔的頭等旋轉燈確實已由貨船運抵一個多月，但至今還沒有採取任何措施來啟用。現在是準備矗立在花鳥山？或是被擱置在倉庫裡？總稅務司下達這樣命令的動機究竟是什麼，實在難以想像。

經過與當地船長、理船廳、英國領港公會（Trinity Board、三一委員會）、外國領事、對長江進行首次勘測的英國海軍上將Collinson等權威人士的充分討論和慎重考慮，局勢問題得到了解決。絕大多數人的意見都認為花鳥山是最理想的地點，只有雞骨礁（Amherst Rocks）除外。

我們完全承認，在雞骨礁建造燈塔會更好，但估計需要花費15萬平銀；我們擔心目前不太可能籌集到這筆巨額款項。確實有人建議在那裡放置一艘燈船，但停泊在雞骨礁的燈船會完全暴露在狂風巨浪之下，能否安全停泊似乎非常值得懷疑。

新的花鳥山燈光可見範圍達方圓三十英哩，現有的銅沙燈船的可見距離為十二英哩。因此，只要燈船清晰可見，再加上花鳥山燈塔就不會迷失方向。無論將來採用何種更複雜的方案，花鳥山作為重要的切入點，顯然必須是優先考慮。

即使為了論證起見，假設該地點是錯誤的，即牛皮礁（Ariadne Rocks）或雞骨礁、海礁山（Barren Island）、Leuconin，或上海附近任何其他危險之處都更可取，赫德自返回以來也有充足的時間來糾正所諮詢的各個當局的集體錯誤，並選擇一個更合適的地點。(*4)

沒有任何理由能解釋為什麼迄今為止來到中國的最好的燈會被存放在倉庫裡。大戢山燈塔是否也會遭遇類似的命運，這將會是一件很有趣的事。

我們有理由希望，無論花費多少，長江最需要的地方都能早日亮起燈火；簡而言之，這些費用將來應該用於其正當用途，而不是用於北京的同文館。儘管這對於啟蒙和進步而言很有價值，但它們的開支應該由公共財政支付，而不是由一個專門為特定目的向特定階層徵收的款項支付。

船鈔在世界各地被公認是一種收入來源，其用途僅限於特定目的，即支付船鈔的航運公司從中獲益。確保這些資金不再像以前那樣被不斷濫用，是外交部門的責任。

海關1866費士來（G. H. Fitz-Roy）的建議與總理衙門的回應

總稅務司赫德於1866-03請假返英，總理衙門在1866-04-09指派江海關稅務司費士來（G. H. Fitz-Roy）任署理總稅務司（Acting Inspector General）。(*1)(*2)

1866年夏，費士來直接向總理衙門傳達改善航運的必要性，此前歷任稅務司與海關監督合作，皆未能籌集到所需資金；外國航運船主繳納的船鈔（Tonnage Dues）預定被使用在改善航運，而實際被使用在改善航運的工程支出卻明顯很少。總理衙門隨後指示撥付36,000平銀用於長江河口建設燈塔。(*3)(*4)

1866-09-11總理衙門恭親王致函通知駐華美國外交官衛廉士（S. W. Williams、衛三畏）：已收到來自漢口、九江、寧波、芝罘、牛庄以及長江上的狼山水道和蕪湖的報告，這些地方已提交並同意分階段建設的地點估算和計劃；已給予署理總稅務司費士來指示，首先採取措施保護長江口最危險的海域，具體措施是在當地建造一座鐵製燈塔，該燈塔將從國外採購。預計燈塔建成並投入使用後，船隻在河口沙洲擱淺的事故將大大減少；對於尚未配備這些設施的其他港口，已再次向上述口岸的海關監督下達命令，敦促其下屬立即做出必要的估算，以建造為方便航運所必需的設施，以便每個港口都能配備任何有助於船舶進出安全的設施。(*5)(*6)

總理衙門在推行或接受任何改進措施方面的消極態度，似乎正在西方思想的衝擊下發生轉變。(*7)

情況的演變，並不如預期的美好。太平運動的戰事紛擾？總理衙門的具體作為？總稅務司的實際行動？且待後續。

英國土木工程師學會「韓得善檔案」

韓得善（David Marr Henderson）於1869-01加入清海關任職燈塔營造司（Chief Coast Lights Engineer），1871-10任職總營造司（Engineer-in-chief），1898-05離開海關。任職逾29年期間，輔助新造沿海燈塔34座。

英國土木工程師學會（Institution of Civil Engineers / ICE）典藏一批「韓得善檔案」，這是值得追尋的目標。2022-04-10發信予ICE，列出有關台灣所轄的燈塔清單，包含淡水（Tamoui）、大膽島（Taitan）、東椗島（Chapel Island）、北椗島（Dodd Island）、西嶼（Fisher Island）、烏坵嶼（Ockseu）及鵝鑾鼻（South Cape），並諮詢如何取得韓得善檔案副本或電子檔。ICE在2022-04-13回覆資料無數位化，必須經由親訪，又因筆者來自台灣，同意給予一份指定檔案掃描件的服務，「I am afraid these records are not available digitally. To view you will have to visit our Archives which can be done via appointment. Since you are in Taiwan, if there is a particular paper you need from the set, I can scan this for you」。

南岬塔友張中和先生得知後，表達將有德、義家旅行程，有機會可以代勞。塔友經由英國友人向ICE提出申請及預約訪問時間，2022-10-25由館方人員Ms. Carol和Ms. Debra陸續引導進入檔案區。在我方表明拍攝目的是期望補充台灣燈塔文史的情況下，館方期待我方未來的文史文章能夠回報予館方，隨即順利拍攝東椗島（Chapel Island）、北椗島（Dodd Island）、烏坵嶼（Ockseu）、鵝鑾鼻（South Cape）燈塔等四座燈塔的大部份檔案影像。

 

由於館方曾明確說明筆者可以提出一份指定檔案掃描件的服務要求，ICE於2023-02-23提供北椗島燈塔圖件掃描件，因為這是筆者所知唯一的雙層塔體結構燈塔，不得不有所取捨。

筆者在2026-01-04再次發信，並提供二篇由筆者與張中和先生共同具名且經屏東文獻收錄的文章，分別包含＜從「海關資產圖」與「燈台敷地」看臺灣關界碑＞、＜韓得善（David Marr Henderson）與台灣燈標：英國土木工程師學會「韓得善檔案」介紹＞，期望ICE能提供鵝鑾鼻燈塔掃描件，ICE於2026-01-05給予正面回應；筆者在2026-02-03再補上友人引用並發表於日本海洋文化總合研究所（Japan Institute for Maritime Culture / JIMC）海と灯台学ジャーナル＜台湾海峡における歴史的灯台の設置背景と⼆重円筒構造に関する⼀考察＞；ICE於2026-02-04分次提供鵝鑾鼻燈塔掃描件。

(*1) 從「海關資產圖」與「燈台敷地」看臺灣關界碑

(*2) 韓得善（David Marr Henderson）與台灣燈標：英國土木工程師學會「韓得善檔案」介紹

(*3) 台湾海峡における歴史的灯台の設置背景と⼆重円筒構造に関する⼀考察

在與張中和先生互通有無時，竟意外發現還有一張鵝鑾鼻燈塔圖卷未能展現全貌。張中和先生再於2026-08-28經由館方協助取得拍攝件。

 

有關鵝鑾鼻燈塔文史，已在＜韓得善（David Marr Henderson）與台灣燈標：英國土木工程師學會「韓得善檔案」介紹＞紀錄，不另贅述。但有一點是可以補充及說明的，這份文件是韓得善檔案中的一份文件，由1881-08-03時任廈門關署理稅務司勞偲（W. B. Russell）抄錄1881-07-27總稅務司赫德寫給韓得善的信件，「The Yamên has finally decided to go on with the Lighthouse on the South Cape, i.e. the eastern one of the two, Formosa; you need not proceed with the plans, &c, for S.W. Cape about which I wrote a few days ago」。顯示出總理衙門最終選址為鵝鑾鼻（South Cape），總稅務司赫德通知韓得善已不需要進行貓鼻角（S. W. Cape / S. W. Point）燈塔計畫及相關工作。

自啟動選址工作，至拍板定案，啟動者、決策者都是總理衙門，清海關就是負責調度財力、人力和物力的設計及建造主辦單位，最後再由清海關海務年度報告的霧砲彈藥使用量統計表紀錄佐證；而更重要的是，從清海關貿易季報製作淡水關、台灣關（後稱台南關）船隻進出地，南岬根本就不可能在清代對外通商的常規航道，要說武裝的鵝鑾鼻燈塔不與「開山」政策直接有關，有人會信嗎？

廠驗鵝鑾鼻燈塔的檢查報告（二）

英國土木工程師學會（Institution of Civil Engineers / ICE）典藏一批「韓得善檔案」，包含二份韓得善到英國廠驗鵝鑾鼻燈塔的檢查報告，在此僅為轉錄，此為其二。

 

South Cape of Formosa Light and Lantern

Inspection Report, 2nd December 1882.

1. Light

Quality of Glass

Some of the lenses and prisms are very stringy, and air bubbles and seeds are to be met with. There are very few chipped edges. One large chipped edge was observed but the defective prism is to be replaced. Some prisms were too short, and I pointed out prisms Nos 14 & 17 in upper panel 1-2 that did not at one edge. Enter the provided for their support. All short prisms are to be replaced.

Setting of Glass

The whole of the lower prisms have through an error, been set to a wrong focus, and they are being reset. I examined each prism of the panel 1-2 of upper prisms and found the setting satisfactory. The lens panel 1–2 was examined in detail by Dr. Hopkinson and myself and our readings of the positions of the various foci agree. As the flame is large this panel will give a good light but it is far from perfect, and with the present lens rings, it cannot be improved. The edges of some of the prisms bore upon or were too close to the metal racks; the jars of transport are almost certain to chip the corners of such prisms. Dr. Hopkinson is to thoroughly re-examine the light next week and see that short prisms are replaced and that glass is not bearing direct on brass. Mr. Kennard remarked that the light was a fair specimen of their manufacture.

Foci

The Focal Plane is 3.9 (inches) above the horizontal lens centre. The top of the Douglass burner is 32 (inches) below the focal plane, and cross strings indicate this position. The focus for the lenses is where the vertical axis of light intersects the Focal Plane. The focus for the upper prisms is in the Focal Plane and 25 in. behind the vertical axis. The focus for the lower prisms, when reset, will be 20 (inches) below the Focal Plane and 70 (inches) in front of the vertical axis.

Lamps

None of the lamps or burners were ready. It will take about a fortnight to finish the fountain lamps. It was explained that Sir James Douglass has not yet definitely settled the pattern of his burner and that till he has done this the burners cannot be put in hand. I suggested that two ordinary Spirit House pattern burners be made at once to go with the Light in order that there may be no delay in its exhibition. The Douglass burners with the necessary chimneys can follow as soon as they are ready. The top of the Spirit House burner should be placed 19 (inches) below Focal Plane, and the top of the burner tips 30 (inches) below Focal Plane, or 1 (inches) higher than the level of the adjusting strings.

Dioptric Mirror

The centre of the mirror has been placed 23 (inches) above the Focal Plane. The Messrs. Chance tendered for and supplied their ordinary mirror with 10 totally reflecting prisms. I specified for a mirror with 11 prisms because I wished to avoid glass touching glass as occurs in the centre of the mirror supplied. The French Lighthouse Engineers and Manufacturers agree with me on this point. I am aware that the Messrs. Chance have saved themselves trouble and expense by supplying their pattern mirrors. We have in China the pattern of mirror specified for and I did not want a second one introduced unless it were an improvement.

Armature

The inclined strap at the back of mirror had not been supplied but they were to be put in hand.

Pedestal

The pedestal was satisfactory and the holding-down bolts for it are in hand.

2. Lantern

Quality

The quality of the materials and workmanship was generally good and I specially pointed out the importance of having the screws long enough and large enough for their respective holes. One roof plate had a scab on its upper surface which was to be held down by a couple of rivets. I did not reject the plate as long as doing considerable delay would have resulted.

Astragal Bolts

Ordinary bolts and nuts were supplied to secure the astragals to the standards, but I arranged that screws with countersunk heads are to be supplied as thereby light is saved and the correction looks neater.

Exterior ladder

I had this ladder placed so as to occupy the least possible room and not interfere with the working of the Gatling guns.

Downpipe

I had the position of this pipe slightly altered at the bottom of lantern glazing so as not to obstruct light.

Glazing

Intended only three sizes of panes to be used, but, through an error, larger panes are required at each side of the dark arc. There will now be six different sizes of panes. Nine spare panes of the ordinary sizes are provided, and three spare panes of the special sizes near dark arc.

Cowl

To render the cleaning of cowl easier I have had a second hand-hole made in it and another step bolted to roof of lantern.

3. Stores

50 glass chimneys are to be supplied for the Trinity House Burners and 100 are to be supplied for the Douglass burners. Lamps with duplex wicks and glass reservoirs were provided for the keepers' rooms. I pointed out that the reservoirs must be of brass as glass ones were so easily broken. A single wick lamp is sufficient. The tine for the whitening and rouge were in hand. As two patterns of burners are to be supplied four drawings of flames are required, one of each kind to be sent with the Light and one of each kind to be sent to the Engineer's Office Shanghai. The bidons and stands supplied were not of good design so I explained what was wanted. The standard barometers had not been tested as there was some difficulty about getting this done.

Time of Completion

The whole was to be packed and ready for delivery within three weeks from the date of my first inspection on the 24th November. I finished the inspection on the 27th November, and on this date a portion of the lantern had been taken down and painted.

Charing Cross Hotel,

London, 1st December 1882.

David M. Henderson,

Engineer-in-Chief.

N.B. Handed in sketch of Chance's mirror and the one I specified for with explanation. No copies kept.

South Cape of Formosa Lighthouse

Inspection Report, 19th October 1882.

1. Refuge

Quality

The materials and workmanship are satisfactory.

Size

The specified dimensions have been adhered to.

Stove pipe

A short additional length of copper stove pipe is to be supplied. No extra charge for this.

Gallery stove

I suggested that a few saucepans and a hot water kettle to fit the apertures in top of stove be supplied.

Rifles

Fifteen Martini-Henry rifles have been provided and will do. On the Specification Remington rifles are mentioned. If I remember correctly, I proposed a Magazine Rifle and since then I sent a few Hotchkiss Magazine Rifles with sabres to the South Cape. Would it not be well to supply Hotchkiss in place of Martini-Henry rifles for this station? Suitable ammunition for both Hotchkiss & Remington Rifles can be procured in China. The rifles in use at the South Cape were made by the Winchester Repeating Arms Co., New Haven, Conn., U.S.A.

Revolvers

Fifteen revolvers of the old Adams pattern, which is not self-extracting. Have been supplied I would strongly recommend that a self-extracting revolver be substituted for these. A suitable one is known as Bland's self-extracting Royal Irish Constabulary Revolver; it is made in 3 sizes, but the 450 one is required. Messrs. Thomas Bland & Sons of 106 Strand, London, and 41 Whittal St., Birmingham advertise these revolvers at 2½ guineas each. Messrs. Sir W Armstrong & Co were to look into this matter and Hay will probably make the change.

Hatchets

These are under provision. I recommended the American pattern. 8 to be of the large size and 7 of the small.

Time of Completion

In less than three weeks the carriages for the Gatlngs and a few small things not completed will be finished. In general the refuge itself may be considered complete with all erecting tools, rivets, bolts, etc.

2. Tower

Quality

The materials and workmanship are satisfactory.

Size

The specified dimensions have been adhered to except in the case of the outer gallery at the top of tower which has been enlarged to enable the gatling to be freely worked, and have ample room for a passage round the lantern. I approve of the arrangement, but as the race plate to carry the gatling could obstruct a little light from the lowest prism I arranged for a distance piece of the necessary height to be placed under the Lantern and Light pedestal.

Holding-down Bolts

I was informed that these and a tracing showing their positions had been forwarded as specified for.

Cement

No own cement is now required as the whole width of the flanges has been planed.

Time of Completion

In three weeks from the 17th instant, the day of my inspection the whole will be completed. The lower half of tower is practically completed. The materials for the upper half are all provided and more than half of the workmanship on them is completed. What remains to be done is chiefly on the upper floor, balustrade and stairs.

Template

I wrote to the Messrs. Chance on the 18th instant informing them that Messrs. Sir W Armstrong & Co were ready for the template showing the positions of the bolt holes in the base of the lantern and Light-pedestal.

David Marr Henderson,

Engineer-in-Chief.

白沙岬燈塔補遺

有關「清海關沿海燈標整體計畫」：

1. 總稅務司赫德1867-01-31備忘錄，筆者稱為「海關總稅務司赫德1867燈標備忘錄」，存在於【美國1867-‘68外交檔案】，也出現在總稅務司通令1870-12-31 CIRCULAR No. 25 of 1870。

2. 總稅務司赫德通令1868-06-22 CIRCULAR No. 20 of 1868，筆者稱為「海關總稅務司赫德1868燈標計畫」。

3. 以上二者結合，實為「清海關沿海燈標整體計畫」。此可由總稅務司赫德通令No. 420, 1888-05-21, Enclosure No. 3, Lights: 1888，取得確認。

由於清海關文件以英文書寫為主體，在解讀「清海關沿海燈標整體計畫」時，英中地名轉換是最大的困擾。最困難的是「Formosa, N. W. point」，一直只能揣測。

通商口岸淡水位於台灣西北岸，且不在1867燈標備忘錄內，淡水列為第一直覺目標地。導因於「Formosa」的區域解讀，大可指台灣，小可指安平，巧的是安平北西大樹是航海人日標，且安平通商口岸不在1867燈標備忘錄內。直到筆者嘗試閱讀航海書籍，HathiTrust數位圖書館，「PAKSA POINT, an elevated sand hill which stands at the extremity of this the north west point of Formosa」。

日治初期，1896年（日明治29年）航路標識管理所委託選址白沙岬為新設燈塔地（執行單位為總督府民政局通信課），原址因暴風雨至地形變動，選址變更至現行地。

Ps. 白沙岬的「岬」是日文漢字。【海道圖說】將Paksa point譯為白沙角。

基隆燈塔補遺

 

清海關總稅務司赫德在1867-01-31備忘錄中，將基隆列為燈標計畫之一；韓得善在1875年度海務總結報告中，提出需要基隆燈標，以便夜間進出基隆港入口，但未述明燈標等級；在1879年度海務總結報告中，建議安裝六等燈；淡水關署稅務司馬士（H. B. Morse）在1894年度海務報告中，報告基隆燈標裝置已到貨，待條件允許時即可進行安裝。惜後續乙未割讓，日方接管。日治期間，基隆燈塔五等燈於1900-04-01點燈。

東莒島燈塔（東犬山燈塔）補遺

清海關總稅務司赫德在1867-01-31備忘錄中，將白犬列島（White Dogs）列為新設沿海燈標之一，目的在使船隻抵達白犬列島之後，易於發現閩江口，隨後即可進入福州羅星塔泊所（Pagoda anchorage）；海務稅務司福布斯在1870-08-01海江警船示預告東犬山（Middle Dog）將於1872-01點燈；韓得善設計，布賴森（Robert Bryson）負責現場工作，塔體石造，燈器為英國張氏兄弟公司（Chance Brothers）製造，東犬山燈塔頭等燈於1872-07-12點燈，1877年啟用霧砲。
