mand (tn. Hemp has been languid ; so depressed
have been the prices here, that several parcels have
lately been shipped for America from this country,
in place of being sent direct from Petershurgh. The
exchange by the late accounts remains at 10, or
rather a shade lower.
EXCHANGES, BIL'LLION.—The rates of the Foreign
Exchanges are apparently advancing for the two last
post days. The letters from the Continent generally,
and from Holland and Hamborgh in particular,

Sauces —The East India Spices continue very
heavy-; Pepper may be quoted the last rea-
lised price Ot 'Pimento was 100. for a parcel of good
quality.
Fitver.—The market remains heavy, yet there is a
probability. that the Fink arriving before Christm is
Irom the Mediterranean (with the exception ~f the
Spanish) will come to a good : the prices
were very high at Smyrna, &c. which might indite,-
the buyers to hold oil from purchasieg for some time;
in that case, a great proportion of Fruit will come to
market after the Ist of JA' try ; by the late ktter-,

An order has been received at the Custom House,
Portsmouth, peremptorily prohibiting the clerks from

For some years past, during the month of Novem-
ber, we have regularly had a very severe touch of
frost, which uniformly gave way, and was succeeded
by fresh weather for the greater part of December.

and has continued without interruption for mom
than ten days, and with the uniformity of a Canadian
winter. So severe is the cold, that the Clyde is frozen.

substantiated, and the defendant was convicted in the
penalty of 430 and costs : half the sum goes to the
poor ; Lord YARMOUTH ordered the other £l5 to be
applied to the' Waterloo Subscription.
COVENT GARDEN.—The new Farce lost nothing
upon a repetition last night ; on the contrary, with a
judicious alteration or two, it procured the warm and
general iufrage of a very brilliant House. It is im-
possible for any thing to be played better than it is, I
and we never, at any time, saw Mr. Fewcare, upon

hunting. overture was much admired, and our favour-
able opinion of the music was confirmed by the ap-
proving voice of the audience last night.

near Chirk, four men were killed by the whimsey, and
two others so badly hurt as to endanger their lives.
