The prefent flock of Flour is certainly very
confiderable, and has the effect of making our
Wheat Market heavy at the annexed prices.-
Oats are in the Came Rate of dullneft as we lan
obferved-but a demand for Beans to thip
coaftwife, has advanced them near ts. per quar-
ter. Barley, we think, is dearer, and Malt will
now moft likely go off with more freedom. Hog
Peas and other things as before. Seed Trade un-
altered.

Dement Lake was frozen over for a few days
of the late feverc weather. A Lady and a Gen-
tleman, from the KefWick fide, proceeded a confi-
derable way, in a gig, on a vifit to Vicar's Ifland ;
but, owing probably to the fears of the former,
they returned without reaching it.
The centre arch of Oufebridge, on the road from
Cockermouth to Kefwick, (by way a Armath-
Waite, Mirchoufe, &c.), fell down on Tuefday fc'n-
night ; occafioned, it is fuppofed, by the fudden
thaw fucceeding Co intenfe a frog. Providentially,
no perfon was upon it at the time. We hear that
another of the arches has fallen fince.

Smuggling has been carried on to fo great an
extent fence the figning of the Preliminaries of
Peace, as to engage the ferions attention of Go-
vernment. A fquadron, confilling of five frigates
and a (loop of war, has been ordered to fail im-
mediately from Plymouth, to put a flop to the
contraband traffic, by which the revenue of she
country would be very materially affeCted. Thefe
'ails are to cruize between the Start Point and
Mount's Bay.

We yetterday received New York Papers up
to the 24th of December' but their contents, like
thole which we have for Come time pall received,
were barren of artiel:s which could intereft our
Readers.

The proceedings of Congrefs have been con-
neded almoft wholly with points of domeftic ar-
rangement, and among thefe it does not appear
that the fpeech of the Prefident has hitherto oc-
cupied any part of their attention. Of the dif-
cuffions which have taken place, the nx)Il ani-
mated was one about the expediency of removing
what are called the diferiminating duties : after
much difcuffion, titC fubjed was confidered to be
too important to juftify an immediate decifion,
and therefore the final determination of the Houfe
of Reprcfentatives is poft polled. A great deal, it
appears elf°, was faid about the ratio of reprefen-
tation, which has for a confiderable time formed
an objea of dircuffion. The reit& was, that the
Houle of Reprefentatives agreed that 33,000 Ci-
tizens fhould, in all cafes, be entitled to a Repre-
fentative. This new regulation is not yet paffed
into a law, though it feeme there is little doubt of
its being adopted. The principal arguments ad.
duced againit the propofed change, were founded
on local circumftances, but the general principle
was triumphant.
There is no allnfion in tbefe Papers to the late
reports about St. Domingo, nor indeed do they
contain any intelligence of general importance.
In the Pennfylranian Legiflature of the sth
ult. the Houfe of Reprcfentatives formed a quo-
rum, and, after reading over the returns, cleded
the Hon. IsaaC Ws/v6R, Efq. Speaker. On the
following day, Mr. FERGUSON, Reprefentative for
the city of Philadelphia, the metropolis of the
United States, arofe and begged to know whether
or not the journals were amendable ?—The
SPSAISER replied in the affirmative. The demo-
cratic Member then moved, that the word Ho-
nourable, prefixed to the name of Ifaac Weaver,
Efq. might be expunged. He faid it was a foreign
ward, and inconfillent yith republican funplici_!y,
the nature and genius of that government. bk.
Warne role, and faid, that attempts of a fimilar
kind to rob our language were not new; that they
had frequendyeecurreda but not without exciting
anonifiunent. As well might be ilruck out the
word Efquire as the word Honourable ; if the one
beincoofiffent with the fimplicity of Republican
manners, the other is equally fo. He trotted that
this Houfe bad too much regard for its own dig.
nity to content to fuch a motion. An effort was
made to poliposse the farther confideratibn of the
i
motion, but it was 10ft...-Yeas, 14—Nays 64.
