At Rossington, Eleanor, eldest daughter of the At Glassenevin, near Dublin, Lieut. Gen. Barber, S. Uvedale, Esq. Rear-Adm. in his Majesty's navy. * The thermometer has varied from 49 to 32; but on the night of Saturday the 17th inst., in an exposure to the open air for half a minute, the quicksilver sunk to 27; a N. E. wind prevailed, which was intensely keen, and, for a few hours, it was supposed to freeze harder than was almost ever known in England, or, at least, for many years. A Jarge piece of water, adjoining London, and the situation of which had been dug eight feet deep, for the foundations of eight houses, which was fluid on Saturday afternoon, was frozen so hard during the night, that persons skaited upon it the next day, (Sunday). On this day (Saturday), the thermometer varied much; at noon, it was 37; at seven in the eve, 33; in the house, and at half past ten at night, in the open air, 27, i. e. 5 deg. below freezing. The barometer has been from 29:8:1 to 30: 2:10. Several days have been extremely cold. Much snow has fallen; and various accounts from the In the country have confirmed this statement. north of England, I am informed, the heavy fall of snow was two days earlier than in London: 'six horses to a private carriage, were insufficient to overcome the impediments from snow; the company were obliged to be removed on horse back.

Lloyd's Coffee-House, Dec. 20, Within the last ten days no less than 6000 cwt. of coffee have been imported into London from the West Indies; nevertheless the prices have advanced, in consequence of the great consumption of this article since the reduction of the duties and excise on it.-The following statement shews the comparative quantities of coffee taken out of the warehouses for home use for the last four years. Duty paid on British Plantation Coffee. In the year 1804......1924 cwt. 1805...... 1727 1806......2664 provement in the manufacture of this article in Ireland, Soap and candles have rather abated in price; and we look for a farther reduction of these necessary articles of consumption.. British bar iron makes a good substitute for that of Russia; and as the price of the latter advances, so it encourages our home manufacture of the article, now brought almost to perfection. The wines of Portugal are much demanded, and should Buonaparte succeed in his projects of conquering that country, there is no doubt but wines most advance considerably in price, and also become very scarce îndeed; as the vineyards must be neglected in consequence of the war.The same may be said of Sherries, and all kinds of wine, the produce of Spain.-Barilla ashes, so much used in the manufacture of soap, are likely to become scarce and dear; however, the barilla of Teneriffe will prove an excellent substitute for that of Alicant and Carthagena; it comes into our market at a moderate price. We have great pleasure in stating that the manufacturing towns of Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, &c. are busily employed in executing orders for South America, and the returus brought from thence have proved highly advantageous to European speculators; particularly cotton wool from the Brazils, The following importation of cotton wool into the port of London alone within the last ten days will contribute to shew how our In Scotland every haud is employed in manufacturers at Manchester and its neigh-weaving and manufacturing British muslins, bourhood must be employed in the different branches of spinning and weaving, when not a single pound of the raw material is exported out of the United Kingdom,—viz, Imported from the Brazils, lbs. wt. 167,600. -Jamaica, 12,000.—Demerara, 10,000.Gibraltar, 18,000.-Malta, 7,712-St. Vincent's, 10,000.-Berbice, 8,688.-Lisbon, 88,860.-Madeira, 10,000. The prices of cotton keep steady; and large purchases have been made at Liverpool and London within a few days past.-Sugars have rather advanced in price since our last Report, as also has rum, both of Jemaica and the Lecward Islands. All kinds of Russian produce have advanced in prices beyond belief; particularly flax, hemp, and tallow: the expected supply of the latter article from South America is not equal to our calculation: however, the slaughtering season for caftle in Ireland being begun, it is hoped that we shall have a considerable quantity of tallow from that country, in the course of the ensuing month. We understand that the Ifish have taken advantage of the comparative cheapness of their tallow; and that soap inade in Ireland has found its way to the London market in considerable quantities. That it is not equal to the best English-made in spending, is repored, at present; but nothing forbids im callicoes, &c. and the linen trade of Ireland is in the most flourishing state. At the late linen market, goods of all descriptions advanced from 28. to 4d. per yard in fine linens, and Id. to 1d. on the coarser kinds. The importation of this article into London, within the last ten days, has been no less than 729,988 yards. The East-India Company has declared for March a sale of indigo, much greater than usual: on its own account, 1,575 chests; and on private trade and privilege 11,726; making together above 13,800 chests. In our first article of this number we have noticed the additional employment given to the natives of India, by the culture, &a. of this commodi-. ty: we leave this remark with our readers. The piece goods for the same sale amount to muslins about 34,000 pieces; callicoes, 124,826: prohibited, 83,704; prompt July 21st. The cargoes of the Duke of Montrose, Walpole, Sarah Christiana, and Northamp ton, from Bengal; Worcester from Fort St. George and Bombay; Sir W. Pulteney, and Union from Bombay, lately arrived, comprize Bengal piece goods, muslins 9,266; callicoes 9,123, beside prohibited goods; Madras callicoes 68,400, beside prohibited, drugs, and privilege goods, among which are 2,052 bales of cotton. 2 44 Quartern. 21 Those marked thus are taken at the highest price of the market.
