HAMBURGH, FEBRUARY It.

Yesterday morning was the severest cold we have
had this winter. it was at 15 of Reaumur. Within
three days the Elbe was frozen with such thick ice.
that passengers and sledges now traverse it in all
directions.

biota ' —The rumour that the
REGENT has experiencea a relapse of his indisposition,
is erroneous. His ROYAL HIGHNESS'S weakness in
the ankle joints certainly continues, but the complaint
is entirely local, and is approaihing, though slowly,
to perfect convalescence. The PRINCE Leopoixt or
Cosouaou and suite, arrived at the Pavilion yester-
day evening.

Wednesday morning, a Messenger arrived at the
Foreign Office, in Downing-street, from Lord CLAN-
CARTY at Frankfort. Thursday night, Mr. MEATS'S,
the King's Messenger, arrived from Milan. Mr.
LATCHFORD also arrived with dispatches from Paris.
By the same packet, Lord Ge,,ltGE LENNoX and the
present Earl of BuceixonAstsions arrived in Eng-
land. They had nearly all been lost by the vessel
getting among same rocks in a great fog, which un-
expectedly came on.
A Meeting of the inhabitants of Bastor. and its
vicinity, convened by the desire of several Gentlemen,
was held on Tuesday evening at the 'White Hart Inn,
in that town, to take into consideration the propriety
of petitioning Parliament against the continuance of
the Property Tax. A number of ResolutiOns, in
consonance with the object of the Meeting, and a
Petition founded thereon, were agreed to.
Meetings of the inhabitants of Chatham and Sand-
wich have been held, in order to consider of Petitions
to Parliament against the renewal of the Property
Tax, when several Resolutions to that effect were
unanimously resolved on.
The Meeting at Bristol, to petition against the
Property Tax, was most respectably attracted than
any known in that City for many years. All sider
recces of political opinion were compromised in op
position to this hateful system of taxation. The Re-
solutions were moved by Colonel-BAUM, and most
ably supported by Sir H. FROTHY/10; and passed
unanimously.
The Sheriff of Monmouthshire has convened a
Meeting for Thursday next, at the requisition of nearly
'every Gentleman of property in that County.
Requisitions for calling Meetings in Glamorgan.
shire, Gloucestershire, and other Counties, are like-
wise it progress : and se universal is the dissatisfac-
tion that prevails, in contemplating the re-enactment
of this oppressive tax, that we believe every County
in the Kingdom will instruct its Representatives to
oppose it.
A meeting has been held at Lynn, in Norfolk,
the above subject; and strong resolu.ions entered into.
A Meeting has been also held at Oxford on /the
same subject.

appeared at the same time.
