Navigation etc.

Published for 4 hands in 1842 (not clearly an arrangement rather than the preferred version). Piano solo version seems to date from then too (have only found what seems to be a mid-1850s reprint) unless copyright refers to the march, not to the instrumentation, which I suppose is conceivable (not now but maybe then?)
