THE WEATHER IN THE NORTH

MANCHESTER, JAN. 21.—Yesterday afternoon, about one
o'clock, the clouds became very dull and hazy, which was
immediately followed by a heavy fall of snow, which has
continued without intermission up to this hour (four o'clock).
The snow is now at least a foot deep in the streets, and in the
fields and on unfrequented roads much deeper. Many cf the
railway trains have been detained in consequence, more es-
pecially those from Liverpool. The snow storm, though
severe here, is, I learn on inquiry, but partial. I was in •
formed by a passenger on board the Commodore, from
Glasgow to Liverpool. that the snow storm was first felt about
twelve o'clock on Tuesday, at midnight, off the Isle of Man.
It first made its appearance in Manchester at one o'clock on
tWOds
inneBdi!y ; and I have learned that, up to eight o'clock
°l.ning, snow had not made its appearance at Bacup,
a m4nutacturin.g town on the bordels of Yorkshire, and
about fifteen miles from Manchester.
