intact Letter from the Agents to Lloyd's at /timecater&
February *7 winter until the 13th lost. was ancenuno te
mild, but these fourteen days past the frost has hems, very keen
that there!. much boating ice along the coast to. considerable di..
tance from the shore; however, the entrance of the Harbour to the
Belfast Quay, is stiU clear. There is now little prmpect of
as entire free navigation before the end of :March. ft may be
well to make this known, for the information of those who may
have intended to send out ships early in oonsequence of the intelli-
gence from hence fourteen days ago. At present there is 15 feet
water ou the Bar—a straight channel with the beacons, in one we
dread there will be less when the frost in Spring runs of, as there
ban immense quantity of snow in the coo .try and in Poland; and
the South Point extends so far sat in the Channel opposite to the
Lighthouse, which may be turned away, and make entulteradon in
the Bar. Several vessels had begun to load, but as there is use
prospect for them to proceed with safety, they intend to wait until
the weather changes."
