sented as being particularly anxious to join the

Five Mails from- Dublin, and nine from Wa-
terford, became due yesterday. With respect to
internal correspondence; the letters and papers
from the south-west of the kingdom `particularly,
are a week in arrear. Looking then to the dates
of. our foreign correspondence, our• readers will
see that they have earlier intelligence from Ger-
many, flolland, and France, than they have from
their friends and correspondents at home. This
state of affairs is unprecedented in the annals of
England. Seasons equally severe have, no doubt,
been experienced in these climates, but they were
encountered by a state of society widely different
from the, present. The banking system has been
diffused through the country to an incredible ex-.
tent within the last twenty years, and the very
serious interruption and disappointment which it
suffers from the present, delay of correspondence,
has, greatly embarrassed .the commercial world.
Bills innumerable remain now unpaid, not because
the parties are not perfectly solvent and substan-
tial, but because their remittances have not been
received in course, according. to the intention of
the parties, relying upon the habitual punctuality
and celerity of the Mails, and other means of con-
veyance.

The Wheel is so extremely Rich, .that the odds
are not very great, but that the first Prize drawn
above 201. on Wednesday next, when the Lottery
finishes, will receive 40,0001. ! ! In fact the
chance is uow greater than was ever known be-
fore.-
